I started using Universal a few years ago, But luckily…read morehaven't needed them in awhile! The staff comes out quickly and will warn you about emergency charges vs regular. I appreciate the knowledge the workers bring, they usually understand some of the older setups I have in my house and what they are the way they are. The staff is respectful, always covering shoes and explaining everything really well. Prices may be slightly higher than other places but having an expert install things correctly the first time is worth it. This round I had them replace a basement toilet, fix a not working faucet and diagnose water pressure issues.

Oh man, thank God for these guys. My friend's sewer was backing up in her basement, and she thought…read moreit was because her youngest had flushed butt wipes. Chris came out next day and snaked the drain all the way out to the road, and it ran clear. The cost for the Visit and the clean out was very reasonable! Chris suggested that if it happened again, she should have them come out and look with the camera. He thought maybe it was an old sewer cap that had fallen down there and was blocking the line. Sure enough, a couple weeks later, the sewer backed up again. So today (next day service), Arthur came out and sent a camera down.... they were right! it was an old sewer cap blocking the line! There's no real way to get it out easily, But Arthur managed, using a magnet. Immediately the sewer drained! so hopefully that is the end of that problem. the cost for today's visit was again incredibly reasonable. Good guys. Fast work. Well trained and knowledgeable! Very fair price! Highly recommend!

It was a very stressful situation and Cregger made it worse. The plumber was rude to me and I…read morebelieve it was because I am a female. They overcharged me by 2000 dollars. The GM said they had to pay for their 85,000 trucks. I spoke with him today and told him that he did say that and on another review, he lied, and did say exactly what i quoted. I do not make things up. He said they spent 15 hours on my job, another lie. (suggesting they were looking for materials which somehow took an additional 10 hours) They spent 4 to 5 and did not even work the entire time. They are THIEVES. STAY AWAY FROM THIS BUSINESS

I'm new to the area and a friend recommended Nelson Brothers. Easy scheduling (good) but the the…read moretech did not show between the scheduled window of 1-5pm (prior job went long) so they rescheduled me at 2pm the following day (good) and sincerely apologized for the delay (also good). At 3:45 the next day (today), I called their office to inquire - tech is on his way. The tech calls me at 4:05, I'm 30 minutes out!! I explain that is not going to work. I thought you were out front. The service manager then calls me (good) but I cannot make their time work. So as the customer, I (we) have no recourse but to use someone else. I need better communication and a strong commitment to service. I will NEVER use Nelson Brothers because of this experience because it's my only recourse. Applauld good service and shop elsewhere when it's not delivered.

The first day I met with them they had three strikes and out! They couldn't give me an appointment time, they didn't call when they were on the way like they said and then it was going to take three weeks for them to get the parts they needed and would call me then. I sought out Tom Buckhave on line and made a call he came out the next afternoon made a list and came back the fallowing day and took care of our issues. Three weeks later the other plumber shows up unannounced, I told him that we were no longer in need of there services and that two days after he was here, three weeks ago, I had the problem resolved with our companies new master plumber and your companies unprofessionalism lost our companies business. Since then we had issues at are warehouse location, Tom came out that morning accessed the problem, the main water valve had to be off for the repair, with hundreds of workers in the building that meant the job had to be done after hours, that was not a problem for him, he came back later that night and made the repair. Quick to respond, master at his work, you can depend on Tom he explains in detail what he's going to do and why, and based on our experiences with him, our company would highly recommend him and we will be doing continuous business with him in the future.
