on Citysearch May 27, 2010I called Bishop Plumbing because I thought they were a reputable company. I couldn't have been more wrong. I made a huge mistake and I hope to save someone from making the same mistake. They pride themselves on being a... (more)

on Citysearch May 23, 2010We were charged $1k for checking our sewer lines which were not checked and could not be checked, only the inside lines were checked which really did not address the concern for the call as a preventative maintenance... (more)

on Citysearch May 05, 2010My real rating is less than 0. Bishop Plumbing sent their plumber Jason Calucci to my home to replace a kitchen disposal with another I purchased. Jason quoted me $1100.00 and change. I ushered him quickly out of my... (more)

on Citysearch Apr 09, 2010I am extremely skeptical of any good reviews that are written here. EVERYONE else is right on. This place is the very, very worst. How many others are there that do not know about citysearch? I imagine there would be... (more)

on Citysearch Jan 27, 2010These people will take the skin off your back. They are scam artists who quote you a low fee to come out, but then charge outragous prices and take your fee. I am reporting them to the BBB as soon as possible.... (more)

on Citysearch Jan 14, 2010I must admit that after having read some of the reviews on this board, I was a bit skeptical about having Bishop Plumbing come to my home. However, when our water heater finally went out over the New Year's Holiday, I had... (more)

on Citysearch Oct 22, 2009Do your homework and get a second opinion. Just because they seem to know it all about plumbing, doesnt mean its ok for them to take advantage of good people. (more)

on Citysearch Oct 19, 2009It is really surprised to saw people doing business like this. There is a $334.50 for diagnosis, I don't know what is that cause all of other companies I asked lately do not have this fee. The guy actually just walked... (more)

on Citysearch Oct 04, 2009I called Bishop on MON September 28th, 2009 to come in for a re-piping job (need to raise 4 boiler hot water cast iron pipes to finish my basement). They asked for $79.95 just to send a truck and I agreed. Before they sent... (more)

on Citysearch Aug 30, 2009Had them come in to check a leak in a second floor shower. Was told immediately (before they even looked at the shower or went upstairs) that the wall would have to be opened. I said the builder had fixed it before with... (more)

on Citysearch Aug 26, 2009I called for an estimate to replace a sump pump - There was no mention of costs for an estimate. They are trying to charge me $79 to come out and give an estimate. Their cost for replacement was over $800 - I got the same job... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 21, 2009We were asking for a "free" estimation. The operator said they can do that, and sent a plumber the next day. However, we soon received an invoice in mail from them asking for $79.99 "inspection fee". I called the... (more)

on Citysearch May 25, 2009I asked Diane PRIOR to her sending a service person out about the charges. She says it'll be "$79.95 for me to send a person out plus the cost of parts and labor, which he will tell you once he gets there." Diane never... (more)

on Citysearch May 03, 2009I hired Bishop to fix a broken waste pipe outside the foundation of my home. They fixed it and I was happy with their quick response but afterwards everytime it rained I would get seepage in my basement around the waste... (more)

on Citysearch Apr 01, 2009Worked out to roughly $ 500 per hour -- after allowing for a couple of cheap parts. That's absurd. Will never call them again (more)

on Citysearch Mar 17, 2009OK, they didn't take advantage of me, but they did for my grandma. She's alone and not too on the ball re: plumbing. They overcharged her big time, but she didn't know any better!! I told her to call me now before having... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 17, 2009They said my plumbing work would be $1200! I said I couldn't afford that and got another plumber. He did the work for $125. Bishop is AWFUL! Totally a rip off! (more)

on Citysearch Mar 17, 2009Our kitchen sink was clogged. They told me that just to come out would be $79.95 but if I had work done that fee would be subtracted. If I didn't have work done, they would charge the $79.95. Stupidly I agreed -- thinking... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 11, 2009During the last major rainstorms our basement was taking in water as our sump pump wasn't working. Our basement is a finished basement and we have spent lots of money making it an entertainment center for family and... (more)

on Citysearch Feb 10, 2009I went to Home Depot and bought a new faucet for my bathroom sink which was dripping constantly. I called many places to see how much it would take to install it and had a variety of estimates done. When Bishop Plumbing... (more)

on Citysearch Feb 05, 2009We had a problem with our kitchen drain which was leaking underneath our counter. It was not the start of a good day. My husband left for work, my kids set off for school and I had to call into work. I was hoping that I... (more)

on Citysearch Feb 02, 2009This company is a total rip off and rude besides. We called them out for a blocked drain and we would have been quite happy to pay several hundred dollars to get it fixed but the quote was $512- a common number I see from... (more)

on Citysearch Jan 02, 2009Arrogant, condescending, and stupid is how I'd describe my experience with this company. They acted like they were doing me a favor coming out to my house, and thought I was so gullible to accept a $375 fee to check for a... (more)

on Citysearch Jan 02, 2009Don't ever use this company! They are con artists, rip-off artists, and scammers! They charge $179 over the phone with your credit card, then they come out and quote an outrageous price that no sane person who knows... (more)
