    Always good service and fair prices. But then again, we have been customers for only about 30 years. ; )

    They responded to my yelp message within 30 minutes on a weekend and I had a window the next day…read morefor them to come and replace my water heater. They arrived early (texted ahead of time) and within 2 hours on a Saturday, my house was back up and running with hot water! I appreciate their quick response and availability!

    The plumber arrived late for appointment. He did not seem very knowledgeable. He kept muttering to…read morehimself and also kept repeating everything he said to me. I had a leaky shower faucet. He looked at the leak and went to Association office of my condo building to request a water shut off to change a cartridge. He was told the shut off would have to be scheduled. He came back to remove cover to see if I had a shut off by the cartridge. I did not. Even though I did not have a shut off he decided to remove the cartridge anyway, but was unable to turn it. Then he said if he was able to remove the cartridge everything would get quite wet because the water wasn't able to be shut off. Then he said he didn't want to get wet and would not try to remove the cartridge. He told me that he would have to return in 3-5 days when the water shut off to my tier could be scheduled. Since he could not remove the cartridge he decided that it was on too tight. He told me I would have to soak rags in vinegar and wrap them around the cartridge and keep rags wet until he returned. He told me if I didn't do this that he might have to go into the wall in the hallway to get to the cartridge. I told them that he would have to get permission from the Association to do something so drastic. The Association told him no. Then before he left he told me to keep the bathroom door closed and leave the ceiling fan on until he returned in 3-5 days. He closed the door. I told him that I had the fan on but wasn't sure it was even working. He did not check the fan and closed the door. When he left, he left muddy boot prints from my bathroom all the way to my front door. When I responded to the ad on Yelp the price to come out was quoted as $69.99 to come out. When he replied to my email he changed the price and said it would be $39.99, but before he left he changed the price again to $69.99. I am a disabled senior citizen dealing with a stranger in my unit and was afraid to question him. I notified his company about the mess he made and they said they had no one to clean it up except him. I told them I did not want him coming back at all because I didn't trust him. I also talked to Association office and we decided he was not competent and that he should not return. I hired a different plumber to come and look at the faucet. They came and found the bathroom door closed and asked me why it was closed. I told them that Preferred Plumbing closed the door. When the door was opened my entire bathroom was dripping water - from the ceiling, down the walls, dripping from the light fixtures and my medicine cabinet. All of the knobs on both my medicine cabinet and my vanity were corroded from the dripping water. The paint was pealing off some of the walls and bubbling up on others. The stain on my medicine cabinet was also peeling off. The floor was so wet I had to put towels down so this plumber could have access to the leaky faucet. Even though I had told Grant that I didn't believe the fan was working, he never checked it before he closed the door. The light fixture was blinking off and on. The new plumber told me that the water probably got into the walls and may have shorted out the wires. Even the floor tiles were coming up. The bathroom door was so distorted from the excessive water it had absorbed it had to be forced to open it all the way. I have been back and forth with Preferred Plumbing explaining the discrepancy in the pricing and the amount of damages Grant caused by closing the door, but they decided that Grant was not at fault. They also refused to adjust the pricing even though I sent them a copy of the email that Grant sent to me quoting the price as $39.99. When the new plumber came he had no problems removing the cartridge even though I had been unable to apply the vinegar soaked rags that Grant insisted were necessary. I would not recomend Grant or Preferred Plumbing to anyone. They changed the pricing and caused a lot of damage to my bathroom. They accepted no responsibility for the price changes Grant made and refused to take responsibility for any of the damages that Grant caused by closing the bathroom door without checking to see if the fan was working even though I told Grant that I did not believe it was working.

    DO NOT USE J. BLANTON -- HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE I would…read morestrongly recommend that no one use J. Blanton after the experience I have had with this company. In April, I paid approximately $3,000 for a new sump pump and backup battery system. In August, that backup battery failed, resulting in my basement flooding. What is incredibly frustrating is that after spending that much money on a system that was supposed to protect my home, I was left dealing with the consequences when it failed only a few months later. To make matters worse, the response and communication throughout this entire situation have been extremely frustrating. I had to take multiple days off work for appointments, only to have the company fail to show up when they said they would. I was repeatedly given different timelines for when someone would come out and address the damage. The battery was eventually replaced, but the mitigation process was another nightmare. I was told the mitigation team would come out, only to have someone come later simply assess the damage and take pictures. I was then given another date for the actual mitigation work, only to be told at the last minute that they didn't have anyone available. At that point, I had enough. J. Blanton will not be stepping foot in my home again. I do want to specifically thank Nick and Michael from the mitigation side for at least trying to help and work through this situation with me. I appreciate the effort they made, but unfortunately, it doesn't change my overall experience with the company. When you spend thousands of dollars on something that is supposed to protect your home, you should be able to expect it to work and expect the company to stand behind its work when something goes wrong. I have since used Servpro to mitigate the situation. My advice: save yourself the headache, money, missed work, and frustration and choose another company. I would never use J. Blanton again.

    Caveat Emptor: Highly expensive and they use a deceptive ploy to get your money. After servicing, I…read morewas offered 10% off this service if I signed up for a maintenance contract @ 29.95/mo It was on me for signing and not canceling quickly. I just want people to know, unless you have horrible plumbing, you really don't need it. I have no respect for their shameless ploy to relieve me of my money.

    Even though Terry was delayed getting to my resident, he was very professional and clearly knew…read morewhat he was doing. I had a couple of leaks from my pipes in the basement and everything was fixed. He took the time to explain the problem and the solution, which I really appreciated. I will definite use this service again in the future.

    DO NOT HIRE, WE LITERALLY COULD'VE DIED! We hired people to remove and install a new water heater…read morein November 2023 and they scratched and dented up our floor very badly (see a few pics I attached which are worse in person than they look in the pics); which we only saw after the installer left. They are deep and very obvious/noticeable scratches that cannot be fixed without fixing the entire floor in the house, as it's all the same wood and style. I emailed them, called more than 3 times leaving a voicemail and messages with whomever answered the phone. I was told they would let the manager know, but I never received a response from anyone. At that point I figured it wasn't worth it. Then, fast forward to a few weeks, (now 2.5 years later), we find out we had a gas leak. The People's Gas repairmen came quickly and said they were shocked at how loosely the pipes for the water heater were put together! He showed me how he didn't even need a tool to take them apart! In two small twists the pipes were off! So apparently, for 2.5 years, we have had a gas leak and didn't know and are very lucky to be alive at this point. We have a child and have many family members and friends over! We are appalled! So, not only did this company permanently destroy our floor and act extremely unprofessional by totally ignoring us, but they almost killed us due to their negligence! Literally ANY company would be a better choice.
