Shower Remodel

We had a large tiled shower stall with a cracked base, and we hired Benner Plumbing to tear out the old shower stall, replace the pan, put in aqua board, put a light in the shower, and retile.

Their designer/estimator was very pleasant to deal with.

The company did the work in a timely manner.

The shower looks lovely and is once again functional. Putting in lighter tiles and a light in the shower made it much brighter and more pleasant to use.

There was some confusion about the trim tiles, however, as the colour of the ones I chose from the sample, which were suggested by the designer/estimator, did not look right in the bathroom, even though they looked nice against the main tiles. The company did not exchange the trim tiles, and I ended up having to go out and purchase more suitable ones (in terms of colour) at my own expense (in addition to what I was paying the company). The result is worth it, but this was a minor annoyance.

Also, there was a miscommunication regarding the step/threshold piece. The installer started tiling it, even though Ruth and I had discussed putting in a single piece of granite similar to our countertops. However, after I pointed this out, the error was rectified, and I'm very satisfied with the result, although it did delay completion of the project somewhat.

There was also an issue with chunks of grout in the drain which, a few weeks later, caused the drain to clog. The company came and cleared the drain at their expense.

Finally, the company installed a showerhead that would not have been my choice, and, in fact, is far more expensive than the one I would have preferred. They offered to remove it, but did not offer any compensation for the difference in price. I opted to keep it, under the circumstance, but I wish I had been offered the choice at the beginning and, perhaps, would have been able to lower the costs somewhat by choosing a less expensive showerhead.

However, all these issues are minor in light of the overall experience and results. The final result is beautiful, and the company responded promptly to any concerns I expressed. I would use this company again, but I would request a more detailed quote (with all the materials specified in detail on it).

Approximate cost of services:
$9,000.00
What could this company do to improve their services?
Better communication. Ask the customers what they want instead of just installing the company's choice of fixtures, etc. In other words, let the customer make the design decisions unless the customer specifically requests assistance with this.

Repair of a Bradford Wight Water Heater

Called them to fix my broken Bradford White Water Heater. They quoted me 59 for the call out and 95 for the labor. Repair man arrived and charged me that + 599 for the failing part. Waited 8 weeks for the clam to come through, and we had success, except they will only pay for the wholesale cost of 399. I am not out the markup that benner charged of 200 Dollars + the install fee. Is this Right to you?

Installation of low flow toilet

I went to the stor first and talked to very knowledgable sales people before choosing my toilet. The assisted me in choosing the right toilet for my budget and location. They were very accurate with their estimate and the plumber who actually installed the toilet was very clean, courteous and willing to explain any questions I asked. I have recommended them and would use them again.

Give Benner Plumbing a call and it won't be long before they are at your door. It was time to replace the old commode so they came in and had the job done in no time. I'd recommed this company to anyone needing plumbling or heating looked after.
