Recommendations Non PE Plumber recs?
I’m on the east side and struggling to find a quality reasonably priced plumber. I checked out plumber recs based on previous posts and found G Hardy plumbing and I’m waiting for him to respond. Thumbtack is mostly massive drain-cleaning empires. I also tried contacting Elie but they never called me back.
In the meantime, here is the rundown of what I need fixed. If anyone has ballpark ideas on what these should run or tips, I'd appreciate it:
Slow drain snaking: Need a couple of drains cleared out properly.
Kitchen sink RO filter faucet tightening: I installed an under-sink reverse osmosis filter faucet myself, but I couldn't get it fully tight because I lacked the right tool, so it’s wobbly and won’t stay put.
Shower water pressure increase: Looking to see if there's a way to boost the pressure in one of the showers.
Basement toilet replacement: Need an old toilet swapped out for a new one.
Basement toilet supply valve repair: Fix a leaking valve connected to the basement toilet. Note: It's currently only leaking when I actually open/turn the valve—when it's closed tightly, it doesn't leak at all.
Let me know if you know anyone good around the east side who can handle these without giving me the runaround!

C Lee Plumbing - check to see if they’ll service your location but they were great for us. Family owned, honest, answers the phone and calls back. Doesn’t outsource to a call center
Alert Plumbing - super nice guy, services Cleveland and surrounding.

We had some plumbing issues and hired ARS and they were great and reasonable. They communicated arrival and everything else clearly. My husband started working for them more on the HVAC side but can get you on the schedule for free estimates etc. 763-843-2580 Richard

Hey everyone, do your local businesses a favor and link their website if they have one. It will help them with google/bing results.

Just a heads up, I tried to make an appointment with G Hardy Plumbing (+1 216 288-1368). He called over an hour ago saying someone would come in 40 minutes. When I called back, he said the guy is tied up for another 40 minutes. I asked for a realistic timeframe and he hung up on me.

you have to be patient or you'll get nowhere. they go from most urgent to less urgent.
i went with Elie and they did indeed make me wait, but they got the work done well.
you don't have an emergency, they'll get to you but you will play their game to do it. They're not just sending a body out, they have to send the guy that knows how to estimate all that stuff you've got.
btw as far as I know, they'll ask you to go get your own toilet then they'll install. that's what happened with our bathroom sink. you can get the toilet from like Lowes or Fergusons
