Plumbing reviews in Horicon, Wisconsin

Never had decency to call back!!!

Ulmer's provides great service and helpful suggestions for increasing the longevity of our septic system. Prices are VERY reasonable.

0 stars if possible. I called with a plumbing emergency and had to leave a message (on the number provided as an "emergency" line) Nobody answered so I left a message with my name, phone number and nature of the emergency. I never received a call back. I got the problem fixed by someone else. Someone who takes their business seriously.

Dave came out and did work that was beyond what was asked. He then charged a $45 service fee for showing up, AND charged for 30 minutes before he arrived and 90 minutes after he left. When I called him on it, he wouldn't adjust his bill.

Called Dave around 5:30 p.m. on a Friday was after normal work hours. A/C was not working properly on a very hot day. He came out in approximately 20 mins. Went right to work, diagnosed the problem and got the A/C back up and running! Very happy with the service and would call him again for sure. Pricing was fair and competitive.

Dave has been retired since 2020. I would like to thank all past customers, and friends, for their patronage, friendship they all provided in the past 34 years.
Thank you to all

I have used Dave 3 times. First we had an old iron pipe break on a old house. He was able to get the mess fixed and in our :last second" budget.

The second time Dave literally saved our lives. We (I) was trying to get a new fancy thermostat to work. Dave ws able to LATER do it but our Carbon Monoxide was at lethan levels. I was so thankful he checked that. He was able to get us a new furnace that was efficient but also in our price range.

The most recent issue was hardly any air flow to the upstairs rooms. Dave was able to come up with a fix at a LARGE difference over what was likely what others might have done. New efficient and to code (very old house) water heater and cold air upstairs.

In short. Dave always comes through for you and he genuinely will save you money where others just want to sell you stuff. Highly recommended.

I initially contacted Dave after calling over 20 heating and plumbing companies in our area (Juneau). Most of the business's wouldn't do the small job I wanted done, some companies didn't even return my phone call. Dave came out right away and ran a gas line from my basement up to my garage heater and he also helped me install the venting for the garage heater. Our natural gas heater for our house was making a weird noise also, Dave took a look and determined it was just the igniter but he also suggested we could get it replaced because the heat exchanger still had a few months left of the 20 warranty. I had been thinking about replacing the whole unit and was thrilled to hear I could get a big chunk of money for the heat exchanger on the old one, so I jumped at the chance to get this old furnace replaced so inexpensively. Dave did all this work for us at a great price, he was friendly and I chatted with him every time he came over. We are so glad we have a new house furnace and also have heat in our garage! You need to call this guy, he can do anything and do it right and won't leave you hanging like all the other companies I called. Dave is the only one I will trust with anything heating or plumbing related in our house. If you live in Juneau (or anywhere else nearby) I strongly recommed contacting Dave's Plumbing and Heating, you won't regret it.

HW heater sprang a bad leak. Tried the company that installed it and they had a minimum 1 week wait. Talked to a couple local plumbers and did not feel comfortable. Called Dave's and was satisfied with his knowledge. He did not try to sell me something I did not want and could have and install a replacement the next morning. He installed the new heater professionally and explained features and settings. I had a leaking shower control (constant temp control), in 15 min he had it apart, new seals and back to working. I would describe him as a nice guy who knows what he is doing. Pricing was comparable to others. I will recommend him to others.

We woke up on a Sunday morning and realized our lateral sewer line was blocked. I tried clearing it by a number of methods that had worked in the past, including renting a 50 foot snake and running the whole 50 feet out- to no avail. I finally called Dave, left a message on his voice mail, and received a return call within 5 minutes.

He was able to get to my house shortly after that and cleared my sewer line. (He ended up using 88 feet of his snake if you are curious.) We talked while he worked and he was friendly and informative.

Yes, there was a surcharge for being Sunday, but well deserved. It is no fun avoiding flushing toilets and using water no matter the day of the week. It was definitely worth the bill. Also it was reassuring to know that there did not seem to be anything fundamentally wrong with my lateral.

Called on a holiday, Dave was here within an hour and fixed it up quickly. Also as a new homeowner, did a quick overview of the plumbing and heating systems with me, very informative . Definitely will call him again next time. Very fairly priced as well.
