The first time was to install a gas line from my basement to the kitchen so that we could install a gas range. The second time was for a leak in our basement. John came out and was running ahead of schedule. He called before coming out to make sure we were available for the early arrival. He listened to our theories and found the very likely source of the leak without any damage to the house.

0 stars given for Calhoun plumbing. They arrived on Friday November 5. 3 hours later than the 2-4 pm time they said they would be here. The plumber attempted to snake our sink. Did not fix the problem. The plumber said he would send pictures to the "estimator" and we would hear back from them the following Monday. Have called everyday since and they still were working on the estimate. Originally was told that we needed all new piping and holes would have to be cut into our floors to fix. Fast forward to today Thursday November 11. We still haven't heard from Calhoun plumbing. We

Wow. Arrived promptly and not at the last minute of the time scheduled! Looked at the problem, determined the action to resolve and fixed it quickly without any interruption into my time. I would reach out again for any plumbing service and highly recommend.

Oh failed to mention. Calhoun did work on my daughter's home which we are rehabbing. It required a new stack, moving kitchen plumbing and replacing bathroom plumbing. Its great to be able to support a local company and get good service priced reasonably.

I HAVE HAD AN absolutely nightmarish experience with this company.. Not only did the technicians arrive an hour and a half late, they left without completing the job nor informing me that they were going to another job and would return later in the evening. I was once again without water, the service for which they were contracted in the first place! When their emergency line was contacted, I was informed that they went to another job. I was NEVER consulted nor informed that they would return later in the evening. For all I knew, they abandoned me with an unfinished project!
To add further insult

DJ and Daniel were very professional and explained what the problem was and how they were going to fix it. I had been working on the problem myself and didn't have the skills or equipment to remove a metal pipe that had collapsed in on itself. A common problem with older homes. They showed me the cutout old pipe, installed the proper new PVC, cleaned it up all nice and shiny, and I thought that for a plumber the price was very reasonable.

We have recently used Calhoun plumbing, and Rob who came to our place to fix the water heater, took time to explain the problem, how it can be rectified and what are our options. He was punctual, called ahead of time. He was able to find parts the same day and install the next day, and offered to tune up for no additional charge. I had good experience using Calhoun plumbing and will definitely use them in future and will recommend to friends and family!!!

I had used Calhoun before at my previous house and they had done an "ok" job. Maybe cost a bit much, but ok. As a handyman I only really call a plumber for when it gets bad. Well, my new place has 40 year old plumbing and has started to get some pinhole leaks in the copper pipes. Long story short, they found a leak after six days, they fixed what they thought the leak was, didn't bother checking to find the SECOND leak right below it, then upcharged me 300-400% for parts I didn't get an estimate for.

Longer version:
- Saw slow leak coming from ceiling, called Calhoun Friday

Whenever we have a plumbing issue, Calhoun are the plumbers we call and once again, they fixed the problem. This time, we had a condensation leak coming from the attic (vent pipe). Calhoun was able to clean and repair, and also provide recommendation if it were to occur again. Rob was informative in diagnosing the problem and both Rob and Tanner were professional and did the repair quickly.
They offer great customer service and are a fair value for our plumbing needs.

I called Calhoun Plumbing to replace my toilet shut off valve and reseat the toilet. They were able to work around my busy schedule and be at my house the next day.
The work was not straight forward, as my house was built 120 years ago and has uneven floors and a low ceiling in the basement, but the two plumbers that arrived quickly assessed the situation and fixed both issues within an hour. Cost was reasonable and both wore masks and gloves the whole time to be sensitive to the pandemic restrictions. I recommend them to homeowners on the southside!

I’m the facilities coordinator at a large department store where I am constantly interacting with outside technicians and contractors. In all of my 15 plus years of facilities maintenance experience, Calhoun plumbing is easily the most unprofessional and poorly ran company I’ve ever had the misfortune of interacting with. For anyone who is looking for plumbing repair in Columbus, save yourself a lot of trouble & frustration and find another reputable plumbing company.

Emailed this company to get a quote for installing a sink in my garage. After being told from them that they don't like installing them, they said I would have to install a heater for my garage. This isn't my first rodeo with winterizing bathrooms and sinks as I grew up in New England. After several emails back and forth they finally agreed to come out and quote me. I took a 1/2 day off from work and the company confirmed the date and time twice but never showed up! No email or any other communication.

I guess they are not interested in my business.

I can not say enough about this company. Our water heater went out on a Friday evening and we had been without water all weekend. We had contacted several other companies and hadn't had much luck. Most companies won't give you a quote over the phone and want a service fee just to come out. My husband called Calhoun on Monday and they luckily had a cancellation and were able to fit us in. They told us the approximate cost barring any complications. They called with a delay due to vehicle issue but still came and completed the job. They had the new water heater installed in less than an

ONE STAR COMPANY! My home owners insurance assigned Calhoun Plumbing to come quote a SIMPLE water heater tank replacement. The contractor from Calhoun came to my home and said that it was an extremely COMPLICATED job. He said my entire water meter needed replace, that I needed to get a permit from the city, and that I could be looking at thousands of dollars because my pipes were brittle. He also stated that I needed to be super careful to turn my water back on and to have the city on the line because the pipes were going to burst.
The next day my home owners insurance called and said that Calhoun

Came on time, called ahead, took care of the problem, very reasonably priced (we'd been advised by the gas company on what this could cost and they were spot on that estimate.) After 4 days of frustration from other companies that didn't show as promised, or rescheduled, or were too busy to come for weeks, having them come within 2 hours of my call was wonderful. We have hot water again after several days -- I wish I'd called them first.

I have had a total of 4 service calls between December and now to have a Kitchen drain unclog. Each time they say it's not a warranty issue "Because ma'am you can't put beans, rice or pasta down the disposal" Each time they unclog the drain a few days later it backs up again and they don't feel bad about charging me even if the issue was never resolved. I can't afford to keep taking days off of work and paying $123 every time. I don't recommend this company, they are condescending and a ripoff!

Called to get someone out to look at a leak in our basement. They came quickly but came out with absolutely no diagnostic equipment. They looked around and said well we need to get our rotor rooter type camera thing out here... the guy set us up with an appointment for the next day and they never showed up! We called and they just said oh sorry must of got lost somewhere. It was written down on our receipt for $85 for the 20 minute "diagnostic visit". They couldn't reschedule for several days which is a long time when you are without water! Ended up going with ECCO instead and had

I've called on these folks three times over the last several years to help me out with my home's plumbing. From fixing a busted water pipe, to replacing worn out fixtures, plumbers John and Troy always do a great job and they are a 24/7 operation.

There's 4 stars and 4 reasons why I like them:

1. A real person answers the phone.
2. The dispatcher and plumbers are always polite and courteous.
3. The plumbers always arrive during the agreed upon 2 hour time slot and they call ahead to let you know they are on the way.
4. Their prices are reasonable with a service call being $45

Cleaned lateral - barely. Water backed up again within 3 weeks. Didn't respond to request to come back out. Had to have another company come out and do the job right. Wasted hundreds of dollars with Calhoun. Avoid.

I have a small business in downtown Columbus where I had some serious drain issues. I had called one of the national companies to assess and write a quote for the repair. I was astounded by their quote and called several local plumbing businesses to get their opinions. Calhoun was my choice after discussing my problem over the phone. They were prompt, courteous and got the job done for 1/3 the cost of the quote from the national firm. Calhoun is now my plumbing company!

Love it when a contractor answers the phone and does what they say they're going to do. Calhoun doesn't charge a different rate for Saturday appointments which is great since I work during the week. Good rates, professional service we'd definitely use them again for any plumbing needs.

Charged $175 for video footage of sewer which showed a lot of water about 80 ft out from house. Stated we had a collapsed sewer pipe. Repairs would be in $7K range. I called Muetzel Plumbing for another quote. They also ran video through pipe (for free) and found roots. They used power wash type tool to clear roots all the way to main sewer. Drain is now fine. Muetzel cost: $253.
