Toilet Leak

I did not have to leave a message, because someone answered the phone. I was waiting for another plumber to call me back, and I waited a week. Then I called Bartman. I made an appointment, and the plumber called and asked if he could come early, which was fine. He repaired my toilet in an efficient manner. I had no problems.

Shower repair

After receiving a very expensive quote to repair a leak in our condo shower we wanted a second opinion. The worst part was that this repair meant to completely demolish the shower! A friend recommended Bartman and we called them. The experience was great from the start, the plumbers showed up the same day. They investigated and checked the shower in detail (this was not done by the first people who gave us the quote). They siliconed part of the drain and said it needed to be tested after 24 hours. We did so extensively and there was no more leak. What we appreciated the most was their honesty and the fact that this was done during the initial 2 hours minimum service call. A special thanks to the 2 ladies I dealt with in the office. They were nice and efficient. I would recommend Bartman with no hesitation.

Be aware of the over charge

I should have researched and look at comments before using their service, OVERPRICED!

The kitchen faucet suddenly no longer works, instead of telling us to buy a new faucet then hire someone to install, condo plumber told us to call this company to fix it. The company requires 2 hours of service cost up front, and we thought that's fine, because shower faucet may need some check up and cleaning. They came brought a simple faucet with them (my previous faucet was a better model) and installed the new one, the work was 30 minutes maybe, and charged $450. The faucet is about $111.03 at build.ca and they charge about $200 for it + 2 hours service and tax on top of the high prices.

Totally agree with previous users, this company is TERRIBLY OVERPRICED!

Dear Clala

Thank you for taking the time to write a review about our company. Every review matters to us here at Bartman Plumbing Ltd.

It’s unfortunate that you feel that you were overpriced for our services rendered, however, I can confidently assure you that you received top quality service and product from a licenced plumber at fair market value.

Our plumber was dispatched to your home on Wednesday January 10th 2018 due to you advising our office that water suddenly stopped coming out of your kitchen faucet and that the water pressure for your shower was low. Our plumber diagnosed each and every issue that you had reported to our office and he determined that your kitchen faucet was in need of replacement due to it being old and that your shower faucet required a cartridge replacement as there was not enough water pressure coming out of the shower. Our plumber then called our office to verify the cost to supply and install a brand new Moen single lever kitchen faucet which was quoted to and then approved by your mother on site. Upon completion of our work, our service report was signed and agreed to for the amount of $398.00 + HST which included all materials and labour to complete the work. As for the water pressure that was low in the shower my plumber advised your mother that a return visit was required as these parts were not accessible and had to be ordered from a plumbing supplier to which you declined a return visit to have the issue rectified.

When you initially called our company to set up an appointment for plumbing services we had notified you over the phone that it is our company policy for our customers to provide a credit card number over the phone prior to booking an appointment and that your credit card would not be charged until services were completed by our company to your satisfaction. So therefore it is misleading to advise the public that we require two hours of a service call paid upfront. That is never the case. What we do advise our customers of is that we do have a minimum charge of a two hour service call, which you agreed to and felt was fair. Also, when advising the public of the amount that you were charged for our services rendered, it is only fair to be accurate in reporting that you were charged $398.00 by our company. The remainder of the money that you paid was for tax which is not money that we can claim as income as that portion of the money collected from you is paid to the CRA.

Finally, your review did not mention anything regarding our efficient services being provided to you nor about our plumber’s professional workmanship. We figure since you did not take the time to mention anything negative about those aspects of your experience in having dealt with our company, all of those important aspects were to your satisfaction. Your review is solely based on feeling that you were overpriced for a price that you agreed to upfront. Once one factors in the cost of the faucet, parts used to connect the new faucet, labour and other hidden expenses incurred in which to provide our services to you such as the cost of our vehicle, fuel and so on, you received fair market value for your dollar.

The services delivered to you by Bartman Plumbing Ltd were quick, prompt, efficient and professional from the time that you had placed the service call until the end of our work at your home.

We here at Bartman Plumbing Ltd take pride and confidence in our customer service and we ensure to deliver quality work at fair market value at all times.

Great Company

We have been working with Bartman for a while now on several of our properties. They are responsive, thorough and honest in every interaction. They are easy to reach via phone or email and get back to you within less than 24 hrs on any inquiry. Their service is quick too, usually can have plumbers to the properties same or next day of call.

Shower Head Change

I first came to know Bartman Plumbing through my office. We have used them for many years. I called Bartman when I wanted to replace my shower handle and I could not be happier with the service they provided. First rate in every way. Fast, efficient, excellent service, all at a very reasonable price.

Kitchen Faucet Replacement

My experience with Bartman Plumbing was excellent for a number of reasons. I called Bartman's for a quote on kitchen faucet replacement after contacting another company first.
1. Bartman provided a better price and the option for me to supply the faucet or they could supply it. I appreciated this option as the first company I contacted required me to purchase the faucet through them which was not ideal from a pricing and timing perspective.
2. The installation time was set at a specific time and not over the course of a 4 hour period so was ideal for me to plan my day.
3. Darren, the plumber was on-time, personable, friendly and knowledgeable. He completed the project efficiently.
Overall, I was very pleased with my entire experience with this company and they will definitely be my first call when I require a plumber again.
