    The gentleman I talked to was very pleasant and very helpful and when he found out that the problem…read morewe were having was with a commercial toilet list that had just been installed he was saying that's not the type of work that he does and he gave me a recommendation to somebody and he was very helpful and I would recommend calling him and at least checking out his service.

    I could have died from carbon monoxide poisoning. I hired Frank, he never told me his last name, to…read morerepair two bathroom drain pipes that shared one wall in early March 2026. I asked him if I would need a work permit pulled for these repairs and he said "no". I thought F.S. Plumbing was a licensed plumbing company. I later found out it is not a licensed plumbing company. I also found out from both St. Louis County and St. Charles County that a permit would have been required for these four repairs. When Frank came out to do the work, he tore out a part of the wall in my bathroom, he said the only way to repair both drain pipes was to cut a hole into the metal vent that was inside the wall. I asked him if it could be easily repaired and he said that it would be an easy fix and that I could fix it myself with a piece of metal and a few screws. He told me he thought it was a cold air return. When I told him my cold air return was in the hallway, he didn't respond. I then told him I thought that was the vent coming off my furnace and asked if he wanted to go to the basement to look. He had been in my basement earlier to look at my outdoor faucet pipes since he was going to repair them as well. He declined going to look in the basement to see what the vent was and he proceeded cutting into the vent. He cut a large hole in the vent and the way that it was cut I saw no way to repair it since the one drain pipe was running right through it. I decided to Google "can you cut a hole in a furnace vent?" I got the quick response of "absolutely not". I called my local fire marshal and he agreed that it should have never been cut due to it being the furnace and water heater flue vent for carbon monoxide release. I called a retired HVAC friend and he said Frank, a plumber, should have known that you can't cut open a furnace flue vent. He told me not to pay Frank until I found out how much it would cost to replace the flue section. After I researched and found out this information, Frank asked to be paid. I told him I couldn't pay him that day until I found out exactly what it was going to cost to replace the flue vent. He said he wouldn't leave my house until I paid in full. I felt threatened and intimidated so I wrote him a check for the full amount of $1495. Frank left the house and, I found out later, he immediately drove to my personal bank (of the check) and cashed the check that same day. Also, when Frank left my house, he didn't tell me to not use my heat or hot water, or to turn them off in the basement. I could have died of carbon monoxide poisoning if I hadn't called my friend, later, who told me this fact. My friend told me how to shut off the gas furnace and water heater valves after Frank left to cash my check. I didn't have heat or hot water for over two weeks until the flue vent was ordered, delivered, and replaced. (The vent was a special order and came from out of State since it was a vent from the 1960's and no other manufactured flue vents would fit properly or safely). Frank refused to pay for the repair which turned out to be a replacement of the section of flue vent between the two bathrooms. I got 4 bids for him so he would see I was trying to get him the lowest price for the flue replacement. The HVAC bids ranged from $1500 - $2500. Frank came over to my house a few days after his initial work and said he was going to "fix" my flue vent. He was holding a tube of caulk and a piece of metal. I told him again that the flue section had to be completely replaced. He didn't believe that the flue had to be replaced even though a fire marshal and six HVAC guys said the situation was very dangerous and the vent section had to be replaced. I spoke to Frank, off and on, for three weeks giving him ample time to do the right thing and pay for the flue replacement. He refused, and the last time I texted him he texted me "God is watching". I had the flue vent replaced and I paid for it. I, also, had to have another plumber redo the drain pipe repairs that Frank charged me $895, I had to pay an additional $1000 for the drain pipes to be moved to the correct position, away from the vent. I had to have the wall repaired with new dry wall and tape since the HVAC man had to tear the wall out to get to the entire flue vent. I contacted YELP in late March since Frank has the red YELP GUARANTEE but they have not responded to my filed claim. I have contacted the Missouri Attorney General Consumer Complaint department and they have opened complaints against YELP and F.S. Plumbing and are currently investigating the claims.

    We are having a very bad experience with this plumbing company. The first plumber not only failed…read moreto identify the real issue with our bathroom faucet system -- he actually damaged it, which caused a leak that went down into our basement and led to a repair bill of $778.93. When their second plumber came, he confirmed in text messages that their previous plumber had damaged the faucet. Instead of consulting us, he replaced the entire system with a commercial-type faucet (the kind you usually see in gyms), which does not work for us at all. The water flow can't be adjusted properly -- it's either too weak and cold or way too strong. Because of this, we'll eventually have to pay again to replace it with a proper home system. To make matters worse, their second plumber threw away our expensive shower head without asking, and after the first visit, the bathtub drainage got clogged, forcing us to call and pay another plumber to fix it. Even though the leak and damages were entirely caused by their first plumber's poor work, the company refuses to reimburse us for the basement repairs. They claim that we are "even" because they replaced the faucet -- but that replacement was not what we wanted, does not work properly, and was never discussed with us. I have text message screenshots from their own second plumber confirming that the first one caused the damage. I have been trying to resolve this issue and get them to pay the basement repair bill since October 7, but instead of resolving the matter properly, they insisted that replacing the faucet settled everything. This whole situation has been frustrating, costly, and disappointing. I would strongly caution anyone before using this company. I am now preparing to file a formal complaint with the state licensing authorities and to pursue this matter further in small claims court.

    I recently used Academy Air for a water heater replacement and overall had a very positive…read moreexperience with their team. I only gave three stars because of pricing. The technician who initially came out to provide the bid, Tristin, was very kind and knowledgeable. He took the time to walk me through the issues with my existing water heater and clearly explained the options. I appreciated that they were able to schedule the installation quickly--within just two days--which was very helpful given the situation. There was a small scheduling hiccup, but it was resolved quickly and professionally. Joe Raney and Julian handled the installation. Joe was exceptional and really stood out in terms of customer service. He carefully walked me through the entire install process and took time to explain water heater care, maintenance tips, and the do's and don'ts moving forward. He was extremely patient and thorough, and I never felt rushed. Julian was also very kind and professional during the installation. Overall, I'm satisfied with the work and very appreciative of the professionalism from everyone I interacted with. The only drawback for me was the pricing. Because I needed the work done quickly (only available for the following 3 business days), I went ahead and signed the bid which was a little over $3600 for a standard 40 gal gas water heater, expansion tank, repiping of cold/hot lines, permit, install, and disposal. Afterward, when I had time to look into other quotes, I found that other reputable contractors were coming in much lower via phone - one almost half. The $400 fee to pull what is essentially a $50 permit felt particularly high, especially since competitors I spoke with charge closer to $150-$250 for that service. I was also interested in potentially enrolling in the maintenance program for HVAC and the water heater, but I'm hesitant because if an issue is found during maintenance, the repair pricing will not be competitive. That said, the technicians themselves--especially Joe--provided excellent service, and I truly appreciated their professionalism, patience, and willingness to educate me during the process. The technicians don't determine pricing so this in is no way a reflection of their service.

    If I could give 0 stars I would. After scheduling a sewer repair the tech performing the work…read morerealized the estimate was not correct. They then provided an updated estimate that was 4x the original. After declining the work I was refused a partial refund for services not rendered. This company should be ashamed. Please do yourself a favor and learn from my bad experience and go elsewhere for your plumbing needs.

I was not given a price and I have never met this person. When I declined services due to these things I received "You want me to drive 45 mins spend 1-2 hrs testing the systems for free?" Brandon kept going on and on being demeaning, disrespectful and unprofessional. I was very hostile. I explained further I am not interested due to the cost as I would like to get several quotes and several I have spoken to do not charge a fee.

I contacted Brandon at Airmerica and he graciously came to our home within an hour of contacting him. He assessed our unit quickly and professionally (bad capacitor and a bad wire) and promptly had our unit back up and running within a short time. I was impressed by his knowledge of AC systems, his honesty, and willingness to educate me through each step of the repair process. He also thoroughly checked the unit inside and gave recommendations to keep it running efficiently. The price was reasonable and there was no after-hours diagnostic fee that most companies charge. I highly recommend Brandon and will use his services in the future, as well as refer him to family and friends.
