Professional Service!

Brennon was outstanding. Called 15 minutes prior to arrival and worked diligently all day on our furnace replacement. Walked me through everything I need to know and assured me if I had any problems or questions, it would be taken care of. Very professional service all around! PDM pricing was very reasonable and the office is very easy to deal with. I will be a forever customer going forward.

Excellent service

Pete our service tech was great. Very knowledgeable very pleasant. My only surprise was the $89 for dispatch fee when I was told $89 was the diagnostic.


Response from PDM Plumbing, Heating, Cooling Since 1885:

Michael, thank you so much for your kind water softener service review! We're thrilled to hear that Pete was able to provide excellent service. His knowledge and pleasant demeanor are valuable assets to our team. We understand your surprise regarding the $89 dispatch fee. There might have been a misunderstanding in communication. The $89 diagnostic fee covers the cost of Pete's time diagnosing the problem on-site. The separate dispatch fee helps cover the additional costs associated with sending a technician to your location, including vehicle maintenance, fuel, and potential tolls. Would you like us to connect you with a representative who can provide a more detailed breakdown of the fees? They can also answer any other questions you may have. Thank you for your feedback and for choosing our service. We appreciate your business!

Refrigerant was below acceptable range as well. Added 1/12 lbs of R410 refrigerant to achieve accurate efficiency range. Customer signed up for maintenance program.

Pulled toilet and noticed the flange wasn’t secured to the floor even though there were screws in it, went below and saw water damage to the wood. For the short term ran new screws in which worked but repairing the floor is recommended. Also customer should consider a new toilet, it looks as though it will leak from the bolts that attach the tank to the bowl.
