We had Schrader Plumbing out to snake and service a clogged pipe, and Gabe was outstanding. He was professional, patient, and extremely thorough in explaining what was going on. He went above and beyond by running a camera through the pipes and showing us exactly what caused the clog. Everything was fixed efficiently, and he offered helpful recommendations for future maintenance. The quality of work and transparency made this an excellent value, and we felt confident we were getting honest, expert service. Highly recommend Gabe and Schrader Plumbing. read more

I'd be very cautious before using Schrader Plumbing. I had a horrible experience with them. 2 months ago I experienced a stoppage in my toilets. Based on the exceptional reviews, I called Schrader to come out and fix the problem. They sent technician Michael Badgley. I was initially given two quotes, one for roughly $800 and the other for $4,000. After a quick inspection of my home, Michael determined that he would have to dig a hole in the back yard at a cost of $5,700. While I didn't really understand how the quotes kept changing, I agreed to the scope of work as I'm not a plumbing expert and needed to get the stoppage resolved quickly. Bewildered, I later sent the receipt to my neighbor, who informed me that my house was pier and beam, not slab as it indicated on the quote. I recalled Michael asking me where the crawl space was and I wasn't able to identify it (my fault as an uniformed homeowner) although I showed him the area I thought it was in inside the master bedroom. He passed right over it without a second look. Later, after speaking with my neighbor, I was able to go over and find the crawl space myself easily. Michael fixed the pipe under the toilet in the main bathroom and then proceeded to tell me that I would need to replace all of the pipes at my house at a cost of $30k. He couldn't even assure me that the problem I had just handed over $5,700 for was fixed. The icing on the cake was the $100 bill that I had tucked into my lunch tote on the kitchen table in view of the technician, and when I returned later it was missing. That was certainly my own fault for leaving it unsecured. I was concerned about the entire process and wrote to the owner, John Schrader. I waited several days with no response to my email or phone calls, which spoke volumes to me as a customer. After my third attempt to contact him, I was finally passed off to a service advisor. I explained my concerns to him, that the crawl space was never properly identified and that I wasn't sure that the repair that was done was necessary. He offered me a refund of $750 "to remove my bad review" which I hadn't yet written. Less than 2 months later I experienced the same stoppage. I called Schrader again and was told that the pipes needed to be replaced. I finally called another plumber who identified the source of the stoppage, this time to be at the front of the house instead of the rear. They fixed the problem for only a fraction of what I paid to Schrader. He explained that the first repairs were unnecessary. If you like being robbed, by all means give Schrader Plumbing a call. I absolutely feel violated and taken advantage of as a single female homeowner. If you want to save your hard earned money and get the job done right, get a second opinion. read more

We had an emergency situation with our water heater going out. They were able to get out quickly and the techs were knowledgeable. The quote was $5000-7800, depending on what type of water heater we got. We decided to get other quotes first, so we asked them to make sure we'd still have cold water while we look at options. It took them less than 20 mins, no parts needed and they charged us $695!!! I still don't understand how it was so high, but we were too exhausted to argue so we just paid it. Nice, knowledgeable and quick service, but watch for those prices. PS I ended up going with another (very reputable) company for the repair, paid $2570. read more

The variety here is excellent, and it's a fun concept to be able to do both hot pot and grill. The broth options are tasty and there's a huge selection of fresh ingredients at the buffet bar. However, the experience was a bit average overall. The meat quality was inconsistent some of it was quite fatty and the service was a little slow during the busy times. It's a decent spot for a casual, all-you-can-eat meal if you aren't in a hurry, but there's definitely room for improvement on quality control and pacing. read more

Chris from Schrader installed a water heater at my property and made it fully code compliant. His knowledge of the work and workmanship quality amazed me - one of the best businesses and persons I've worked with! read more

Chris initially came out and addressed a toilet that wasn't flushing properly. During that visit, a pipe was repaired. However, when the same issue reappeared TWO days later and I called him back, rather than being transparent -- as the problem was simply a clogged toilet -- he attempted to charge me $3,100 for unnecessary work. I declined and brought in another plumber, who confirmed that the toilet was in good working order and NO repairs were needed. Additionally, when Chris arrived, there was a strong odor of smoke on him, which irritated my allergies and made the experience uncomfortable. I also have concerns that no permit was pulled for THE SEWER BREAK REPAIR THAT WAS DONE TWO DAYS BEFORE SINCE THERE WASN'T an inspection conducted by the city. They also charged me $195 more than the agreed amount. I was told a refund check had been mailed, but it never arrived -- I had to follow up again just to get the refund processed. Lastly, it appears Tom, the general manager, may not be aware that the credit card company they use imposes a $69 fee whether or not the card is activated. I left this experience feeling completely misled and over-charged. I would not recommend this company under any circumstances. read more

Worse experience ever. Plumber came out last week. Did not identify the problem. Called them back again. They rescheduled me for the wrong day because some elderly scheduler got confused. Wanted $225 for valve repair and $900 to replace the toilet. Asked to speak to a supervisor that claimed to call me back but didn't. Had to call the company again. Supervisor was not helpful. Paid $99 and $225 for some valve repair and putting a handle back on the faucet. Ridiculous. Would not recommend. read more

They did well, a little pricey. Took time to thoroughly explain the issue and got it fixed. Nice guys.

I called due to what I thought was a leaking tankless water heater. The technician arrived within 30 minutes! Scott was very nice throughout the service and inspected the unit for a while to make sure nothing was wrong with it. Apparently it was just water coming in through the vent when it rained. I was very impressed with the quick time for someone to come out though in the event it was a bigger issue to prevent any electrical concerns in the unit. Didn't charge me anything for the inspection either. read more

Over charged for work on drainage/leak in hall bathroom only. Repairs were not completed (toilet was still leaking & backing up) & I was charged $1325 & I was told I needed $50,000 (ridiculous!) for replacing all pipes!! Called another plumber who resolved problem, cleaned all drains, stopped leaking & reseated both toilets for $1000!!! read more

We had Schrader plumbing come out to look at a leaking outdoor faucet today. John was prompt and quickly diagnosed the problem.

Fast! Efficient! Alex was quick and effective great at explaining everything and breakdown of cost! Super professional and hardworking! Glad we called them! Handled our problem perfectly read more

I'll start by saying, Eli, the young man the company sent out to evaluate our issue (bubbling toilets, clogged main line) was incredibly kind and professional. He was also, unfortunately, wrong. IDK if the auger he brought with him wasn't enough to clear the blockage, or he just didn't know what he was seeing with his camera, but he told us we needed our entire main line replaced, to the tune of about $6000!!! (I will say in his defense that we don't have a clean out in our front yard, so he had to go through the vents on the roof. We'll handle that issue soon enough.) Called another company to get a second opinion the next day. Turns out it was roots in the pipe. A blockage that they cleared in less than an hour, for WAY LESS than six grand. Take this review with a grain of salt, but do yourself a favor, and ALWAYS get a second opinion on stuff like this. The second company that came out just saved me over 5k. Just saying. read more

Schrader plumbing unclogged my drains that another plumber was not able to unclog by using hydro jet equipment. Recommended services! read more

The crew came to provide an estimate for a leak at the meter. They say right away that the line will have to be replaced if it's a certain material, only copper can be patched. Of course they go ahead and start digging to see the color of the pipe. Then announce a $3500 job estimate. And a $225 digging fee, for about 30 seconds of hand digging, has to be paid right away (against their advertised free estimate policy). Not even once was the water turned on to see the problem. I didn't know I wasn't supposed to pay for the estimate, until my husband came home and told me. We had a different company come and turns out, the problem is in a connecting plastic piece and it cost $350 to fix it. We called to complain about this, and the manager offered to refund half if we take down the bad review. Unbelievable! Stay away or they'll take advantage of you! read more

Eli Davis was very knowledgeable and was able to communicate everything in a way that I could understand. I will definitely be using them again since I had such a great experience! read more

They have some work for me before. Very professional with how they went about the whole process.

They came to snake my clogged toilet and place a new toilet there. I supplied the new toilet myself. They did the work and charged me for a toilet. I called and they said "oh he's hooking you up with a deal. It's normally $420 to snake the pipe so that's why he charged you that much for the toilet" I said why does snaking a drain cost $420? And he said "oh it's to cover the price of the snake in case it breaks and we have to recover it and replace it" I'm like, but it didn't break... so why are yall charging me that much. Gave me the run around. I had to get this work done ASAP so I payed for this. Worker put his weight on my tub trim and popped it from the tub. I said don't do that cause you're breaking it. He said "sorry" then preceded to keep doing it, breaking it more. And then did not offer to fix it or compensate me for the damage. These guys are scams. Told my buddy he had a foundation leak and wanted $15,000 to fix it. My buddy did his own investigating to find the dishwasher leaked and cause hardwood floor damage and that is all. SCAMMERS! read more

My location says CA but I live in DFW Metroplex. I asked them to come and fix a bathroom sink where the pipes under the sink had a slow leak. The person on the phone said they will assess what needs to be done and provide an estimate at no cost. When they got here they wouldn't even put their clip board down and look at the sink/leak unless I agree to pay $195. This is my second bad experience with this company (I didn't post a comment on the first one). I will not use them again. I hope this post helps others select there plumbing company. read more
