Services
In 1983, Bob Hamilton decided to start his own plumbing business with a truck, some tools, and himself. Bob built his business on the values he learned from his father. Over the past several decades, Bob Hamilton grew his company and began offering more than just plumbing services. Since 1983, he has added Heating & Cooling, Rooter, & Electrical to the name.
My dad was a plumber and ever since I can remember I was learning all about plumbing. I'll never forget my 6th birthday, my parents gave me a tool box filled with the tools of the trade. Before long I was repairing leaking faucets, installing toilets, and sinks around the house. As I got older I worked side-by-side with my dad, learning the trade from one of the best in the business.
Picture this: you're watching the evening news. You hear the upstairs toilet flush. Moments later you hear the bone chilling sound of 'drip, drip, drip' as water makes its way from the toilet down your ventilation system and through your ceiling. What are the first words out of your mouth? Bob Hamilton's Kansas City Plumbers are highly trained professionals.

Great company. We had Mario come out to fix an issue with our Nest thermostat and Furnace. He was extremely honest and knowledgeable. Fixed our issue in under an hour. He also took the time to explain and discuss what was going on. Would definitely recommend this company solely based on our great experience.

Travis came to our home to solve an issue of no electricity coming to our master bedroom. He was very professional. As he entered our home, he immediately put on a mask and booties on his feet. Has asked great questions, discussed what services he was going to perform, and laid out the cost for us. He then went to work, found the cause of the issue, and made the proper repairs. I was very pleased with the service and will use Bob Hamilton again in the future.

Kudos to Stan, Steve J and Tyler M on the installation of my new furnace and AC. Stan was very informative about why and the kind of equipment I needed, and even came back on the day of installation to see that the work was progressing on track. Steve assessed the current equipment and determined how the new installation would be handled. He was extremely knowledgeable and it was evident that he had many years of experience. Tyler kept me posted as to what was happening and how long it would take. He even removed a garter snake from my garage that had crawled in to get warm! These gentlemen were

While the initial pricing estimate discussion took a bit longer than expected before the final details were mutually agreed upon, it was worth it since the end result is excellent. Scott and Chris arrived in a timely manner fully masked, which we appreciated. Scott introduced himself, along with introducing Chris who was in training. These two worked together in unison, with Scott providing Chris guidance with each step. They remained courteous as well as cognizant of protecting the immediate work area. We ended up with a new kitchen sink, faucet, and garbage disposal that appear to be installed

I had Bob Hamilton plumbing come out today to reseat a toilet that was rocking, and have a toilet plunger replaced. I felt it was a bit high for services rendered and received a call from Bob Hamilton within the day and we were able to arrive at a fair price for both parties. Kyle was great at fixing my problem and Chris was very professional. I’ll use them again

Guy that came to the home was useless. Pretended to make calls to his supervisor about our issue and then passes the bad news to us. That they can't do anything. The guy did not even open up the ac unit to check it out. He put a tiny thing in front of our vents and said "the only option here is to upgrade systems, which will be about $4000"
Totally disappointed and will never call bob again. Can't wait to see another commercial so I can talk bad about them to whoever I am with.

A very friendly technician did our AC and furnace check a couple of weeks ago. We don't have any problems right now but we did have someone come and give us a quote, his name was John. He was very professional and no high pressure sales which we love. When we are ready we will definitely go with Bob Hamilton because of their initial no pressure sales visit.

I called Bob Hamilton for an air conditioning technician for a leak. The tech, came out and advised me that I needed one of their plumbers to come. So I waited another day and one of their plumbers came and told me that no, this is an air-conditioning problem. So Now I have to wait another day without air-conditioning for them to have another technician come out to replace the condensation tray Which I was told they won't actually do the work the day they diagnose the problem, so we're looking at 4 days. I used this company because I thought they had competent technicians. Very

Service man was good but led me to believe that there was a lot of work to do the job. I was just out of the hospital and needed the upstairs shower drain fixed because it leaked in my kitchen. I ended up helping him do the work even though I was in pain. He didn't have all the tools he needed like a ladder or channel lock plyers so I went to my neighbors and borrowed theirs. Why wasn't there anyone he could call? It ended up being a simple fix in 3 hours max but I was charged over$2200. I complained and was told they would send a supervisor to my home but nobody came.

They have a problem with the truth. They claimed in their responses that Crazy Bob Hamilton had sold them the company and he had nothing to do with it, blah, blah, blah. Now that election is over and Crazy Bob lost bigly, they are now using him in all their commercials. I don't do business or trust a company that blatantly lies.

Bob Hamilton came to auger and video scope our Main sewer line. They had said that the main line was clear of debris and fine condition based on their inspection from the scope. We had to have a different company come out and pay another fee to have our scoped because the people buying our house wanted the actual video and Bob Hamilton does not provide that. The second company that came out found that part of our main sewer line had collapsed and now we have to re-place that portion of the line. Bob Hamilton never reported this to be an issue. So not only did we waste $150 on their inspection but

Host at our Airbnb called them to fix the heater. Michael came out & was quick & brought the right tools to troubleshoot the problem. So far so good. Hopefully it was only the compressor (aka battery) he replaced that was for the fan.
The other company came out twice before & didn't look at the compressor. Told us it was dust burning. Michael said dust doesn't burn like that & wasn't the smell. Said it was the fan motor straining. So he replaced the "battery".

Charged 2600.00 for a hot water heater installation. I asked several times for an itemized receipt, but they never gave me one. The hot water tank id $900 on line, so they charged 1700.00 for an hour of labor. Was told by text that a manager would get with me.. they never did. DO NOT use these guys. Way over priced. Also, i have a water softener and they said the salt can ruin my water heater.. NO SALT GOES INTO THE FRESH WATER. ITS ONLY USED TO CLEAN THE CLEANING BEADS. I WOULD TASTE SALT WATER IF IT DID.. THEY JUST WERE TRYING TO SELL ME THEIR WATER SOFTENER BY TRYING TO SCARE ME.

Got the $99 main drain and camera "deal". Upon camera inspection I was told my main line was definitely broken and would be backing up again soon! Quoted that it would need to be replaced at a cost of $3,500 minimum up to $8,9XX. I got a second opinion and had the line cleaned out again with another camera inspection. Low and behold the line looks great and doesnt have any breaks in it. The second opinion cost me $220 and saved me thousands on work I didnt need done. Always get a second (or third opinion) and don't trust these guys.

Ok so I posted a picture of the little piece of pipe that the BH plumber who came out put in my drain. BH Plumbing is trying to claim that was in there from before, but that's not true. It was a small leak when we called which turned into a total blockage when BH announced they needed to replace the whole pipe. When I called another plumber, they found the piece of pipe. I don't believe that was in there to begin with because then the guy from BH would have found it and that would have solved the problem, but your guy didn't find it. That's because he put it there.

Saturday morning I called Bob Hamilton Plumbing because my dishwasher started to leak all over the floor. We had a clog in the kitchen sink. BHP said they'd be out Saturday. That was great news, so I didn't call a competitor. Later they called, and I was told it would be Sunday morning.
Sunday at 11:00 I called because I hadn't heard from them. They told me they weren't making it out Sunday and it would be Monday and they would call.
So Monday of course I didn't hear from them. I borrowed a snake and through many hours of effort, I was able to clear the clog myself

I called Bob Hamilton in a Saturday needing a drain snaked and a camera scope. The woman told me they could get someone out there the next day, and wouldn't charge for the camera since we've been without plumbing for weeks getting screwed over by other companies... which I appreciated. Finally had a glimmer of hope after a ridiculous run around with several other companies.
I received an email confirming my appointment and was told someone would call with a heads up when on the way.
I stayed home waiting all day and finally called at 2 pm asking if someone was coming.. I was told nobody

I should have done my research before hiring Bob Hamilton to do minor plumbing work at my home.
I needed two drains snaked (bathroom and washing machine in the basement). First things first, I never received a quote for this work until the plumbing technician arrived, and he told me it would be $300 per drain + $50 labor. I had taken off work to be there for this service, so I had no choice but to oblige. After snaking the basement line, the technician told me that he thought the line was broken somewhere, but they didn't have any cameras small enough to fit the pipe so the next step would

After receiving quotes from 4 different companies for a standard sink/ Garbage disposal install, I am shocked and appalled to report Bob Hamilton's quote came up over $1100 OVER the next highest quote.
Not joking, The quote from Bob was $1590 and the next highest was $500.
The other two quotes were $130 and $290.
What bothered me most about this interaction is the Plumber from Bob's insisted the prices were standard across the board.
I will never even call this company again. Should be shut down

Same day service was acceptable. The tech was very quick and friendly. Dispatch fee was reasonable at $79. Compressor would not start and solution was, as I expected, replacement of the capacitor. BHP had replaced this capacitor before.
The technician quoted an additional $435 for the capacitor, which was shocking. As I was cold, I agreed and decided I would never use BHP again. The system was quickly up and running.
The part installed retails for $30 and literally plugs in. An internet search reveals a reasonable charge (over the dispatch fee) would be $150-$200.

Called to get pricing on getting a light fixture installed in a high ceiling. On the phone I was told the charges would be $65 and then a labor cost but that no quote could be given without seeing the property. The labor cost was $1000+. Don't worry, I was still charged the $65 call fee. Waste of time for everyone involved.
Here is what I did wrong: I called late at night which I'm (now) assuming goes to a call center not associated with Bob Hamilton. Since no real details were shared, I should have just moved on to another company or called back during business hours.

Our wonderful new years day courtesy of Bob Hamilton. On a routine maintenance yesterday, the technician broke our furnace ignition, spliced it in with a different part rather than fully replacing it, left it sitting on the circuit (surrounded by dust), and didn't bother telling us anything happened. As icing on the cake, they can't waive the 130$ holiday fee without a manager, who obviously don't care enough about their clients to be on call while imposing such a limitation. So it's either pay someone to fix what they broke, or have a very chilly holiday. Brrr.
