UPDATE: Second time we have used FF Kling. This time it was for HVAC repair. Second review same as the first. Great service, professional and timely. FF Kling is our go to for our services. Thank you again for exceeding our expectations! Last Year: Needed a water heater replaced. Called on Tuesday and received an estimate on the phone. Scheduled service to replace water heater that Thursday. The repair was done timely, professionally and within $100 of estimate over the phone. I will certainly remember this family owned business when making my choice for any repairs in the future!

Worst experience ever. I tried to give this ma and pa outfit some business and they ruined my plumbing in my $300k+ house. They then tried to charge me hundreds for their mistake and then tried to refer me to Roto Rootor to correct the problem who would have charged me hundreds more. With an argument they come to find out they installed and connected pipes for a new sink to a deadend capped pipe.

Then blamed it on the builders that they got confused. Then still tried to weasel out of fixing it until finally they fixed it only after buckets of water poured out from the busted cap they pushed through. Their repair job looks like a child's macaroni project. I'm appalled. I'm paying for another plumber to inspect their work and coming after them. BEWARE! These people know nothing! Dont ruin your home!

Woke up in morning with no water. Called another plumber and they were here for 10 minutes. Said they would be back. Late in the day, we called them again and said it would be another day. Really? Called Kling and they were here promptly. Called later and said they were swamped that day but because they are professional took care of our problem. Had water same day.

Needed our hot water heater replaced. Tenants without hot water. Most places would not give an estimate over the phone and wanted to schedule an appointment a week out. Called F.F. Kling. Received an estimate over the phone on Tuesday. By Thursday morning, we have a new hot water heater installed. The installation was done timely, professionally and within estimate! If we need services again, I'll be contacting F.F. Kling first!

Critical: Professionalism Total rip off wanted me to pay 345.00 to hook up a hot water heater that was under warranty. Went to Lowe's and bought a new one for 323.00 and hooked it up myself. Saved some money. Don't call them.
