For my local peeps - if you ever need plumbing work done - especially in an emergency situation…read morelike I had last night - I can't recommend Putman Plumbing, Inc enough! I called around 930ish pm to see if they had an available technician to fix a leak that was getting progressively worse through the day in the last copper pipe in my well water system connected to the water pump. Charlie was there within the hour, immediately diagnosed the issue, replaced the water pump (unbeknownst to me the old one was 29 years old and made it way past it's expected lifetime), pipes and one valve by midnight and did an amazing cleanup job. Their pricing seemed VERY fair to me as well. Couldn't have asked for a better service call! Seriously if you're stuck with a plumbing emergency after hours and are in Frederick County, reach out to them!

Dishonest pricing. They told me a quote over the phone, and then gave a higher price (more than x2)…read morewhen finished.

My technician was 40 minutes early (received a call from Tolbard's asking if that was okay). I was…read morehappy to have the service earlier than scheduled. The tech was friendly and engaging. I detailed a particular issue I was experiencing and the tech began work on servicing my fireplace. He removed the fan that was the source of a rattling sound, cleaned it out well and reinstalled. All parts of the fireplace itself (fake wood logs, etc) were removed and cleaned. Upon reinstallation of the fan and buttoning everything back up he was ready to go in a little over an hour. I paid $245 ($205 inspection & $40 for level one cleaning). Generally speaking I felt the value was okay given the scope of the cleaning and extra attention to the fan creating the rattling noise. The exterior of the fireplace looked good with the glass being crystal clear. I happened to check the fan about a half hour later as it hadn't yet turned off and discovered the bottom area (below the fireplace box) had only been partially vacuumed; I attached the pictures. Given that the inspection cost so much and the cleaning wasn't spectacular - I'll do the work myself next year and save my money... As for now, I'll run the vacuum hose under the fireplace to clean out the dust and hair and call it a day. My tech was very knowledgeable and personable but given my experience for what I paid, I won't likely use Tolbard's again unless something that I can't fix is broken.

I did a web search looking for someone to service my propane fireplace which was having issues. I…read morehad see Tolbard trucks here and there around town, but I was not familiar with what they did. Anyways, I sent a request through their website and held my breath wondering how many hours or days it would take to hear back from them. Low and behold, I got a call back the next morning and an email. The staff was great on the phone answering my questions. I also got a 2 hour window date of service, which is pretty normal for this line of work. I also got a follow up call the morning of to confirm, which was pretty cool...so as to not waste my time. The service technician showed up and fixed my furnace in no time flat. Everything works just great. Was it expensive? It was around $200...and my guess is it only took 30 min or less. However, I've had problems with this stupid furnace for 4+ years...it works now and then. He figured out the tiny issue and fixed it and I'm pleased! The service fee was a little steep just to show up for local service...but I doubt I will need Tolbard often. So I paid the fee. All in all, very happy with the service.

I've used their service on two different occasions in the last six months because they are…read morewonderful. First trip was to replace an 'antique' garbage disposal. That went smoothly and works great. Their methodical and focused work ethic is just the kind of service I look for. Respectful and use care when coming in and out of the house. Second trip was to dump/fill the neutralizer and replace a bathroom faucet. Same story - they arrive on time, bring all needed materials and work expertly to get the job done. On both visits they were happy to answer questions to help me understand what was being done. This is my go-to service for all things plumbing. Have used them for years and will continue to do so because they are reliable, honest and fair.

The last thing that I wanted was to go public with my concerns. Yesterday, the plumbers at WRF & Son came to my house to replace three hose bibs. They did a nice job at replacing the bibs. However, when they turned the valve back on inside the house, they did not do it slowly. They opened the valve too quickly, and hence, shattered a PCV valve in the basement. I called to let WRF & Son know that in the future, the young plumbers would be wise to take it slow opening up the valve. It caused a big catastrophic problem in my home. Mallick Plumbing came to the rescue this morning and did a super job. It was Mallick Plumbing that informed me that the valve was opened too quickly. Again, I only wished to convey an important message to WRF & Son for future situations w/ other customers, but I say to you, beware, they are not interested in hearing/learning from their mistakes.
