    Really felt confident that we made the right choice. We have used Budâ s plumbing in the past and would do so again.

    They came out the day I called on a failed water heater. I excepted their quote and they installed a new system the next day. Every part of their business is first class.

    I called Bud's Plumbing on an after hours service call. I was told the additional charge was $299 & that was the only itemized amount on the invoice for after hours. After installation, paying the invoice, & discussing the cost with the owner, it is still unclear how much the after hours service fee actually was. Bud's refuses to discuss any numbers or apply any logic to the invoice & pricing. My original invoice was $3,173. After the fact, I was made aware that Alstadt Plumbing charges $1,695 and Sims Plumbing charges $1,575. The same parts at Lowe's (AO Smith 40 gallon gas water heater, Flextrol expansion tank, and 3/4 pressure reducing valve) cost $634. Bud's charges $1,648 for the same parts, over a 260% markup. The owner was shocked I could come up with what I was charged for material cost, after explaining that sales tax is charged on materials, he couldn't and wouldn't discuss this with me. The technician that came out set the new water heater on the water logged, sinking plywood & left at 9:45pm knowing I was having restoration done. Restoration 1 ripped out the water heater at 8:30am the next morning. Bud's refuses to tell me the cost to reset the water heater because they are billing it to Restoration. A week later after fighting this battle I received a $750 credit.

    Buds plumbing was very professional during installation of our water heater. They answered all our questions about the new unit. Over $2,000.00 for the cheapest gas unit!

    What is the screening process that Service Professionals go through in order to become members of the HomeAdvisor network?

    1. Verify Trade License
      HomeAdvisor checks to see if the business carries the appropriate state-level license.
    2. Verify Insurance
      As a part of our screening process, we encourage professionals to carry general liability insurance. We require coverage for hundreds of services.
    3. Verification of State Business Filings
      For business types that require a Secretary of State filing, we confirm that the business is in good standing in the state in which it is located.
    4. Criminal Records Search
      HomeAdvisor uses 3rd party data sources to conduct a criminal search for any relevant criminal activity associated with the owner/principal of the business.
    5. Sex Offender Search
      We confirm that the owner/principal is not listed on the official state Sex Offender web site in the state in which the owner/principal of the company is located.
    6. Bankruptcy Search
      We use 3rd party data sources to check the history of the principal/owner of the business for bankruptcy filings by or against them.
    7. Legal Search for Civil Judgments
      We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for state level civil legal judgments entered against them.
    8. Liens Search
      We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for liens placed against them.
    9. Identity Verification (SSN)
      HomeAdvisor verifies the social security number(s) of the owner/principal for identity check purposes. This check applies primarily to smaller business entities.
    10. Identity Verification (Reverse Phone Lookup)
      We conduct a reverse business phone lookup to identify records matching the phone number information provided by the business.
