B. Bohmann Plumbing

While I have no complaints about speed, as he was here almost immediately, I have big complaints about the value of his work. He charged me 600 dollars plus tax for a job that took less than an hour and utilized at most (and this is a very generous estimate) 100 dollars in parts. He's a very friendly looking and sounding guy, however he also knows exactly how to play it. Beware.

Fast response, Honest and Affordable! Quick Response! Recommend to everyone! After hours available as well!

This plumbing company is a TOTAL SCAM. Tried to pull off a truck load of lies to scam me out of a ton of money. He said he would give me a quote through email, then suddenly wanted to come look at the job again? I already knew there was some BS on it's way. First got told the bathtub was once replaced, that was the opening line of the rest of the BS to follow.

The bathtub is actually original! Then I got told the original stack set inside the CIELING for the upstairs toilet all had to be changed out to a bigger one, that it was too small. A 4 inch stack is NOT small! THEN he denied that he said that to me as soon as I brought my male friend inside the room. lol. Then he said the downstairs ORIGINAL TOILET was NOT vented, even though it does in fact have a vent upstairs.

To top it off he was extremely RUDE and told me not to interrupt him, like I was a small child.! Both my friend and I caught him out in a ton of BS, and sent him on his way. Wish I hadn't paid the $60.00 fee in the first place. More BS! I never would have called these jokers, but they were listed as Cudahy plumbing, then found out they have adopted other company phone numbers.

If that isn't a scam in itself I don't know what is. Stay away from them! I don't even think they are actual plumbers. I'm willing to BET they would have asked for money down and then never do the job!

On 1/2/2015 they installed a hot water heater that was manufactured on 2/10/2009. Obviously, this didn't last long and had to be replaced recently. Of course, they also didn't return any phone calls or respond to a request from the BBB. If this is they type of service you want then go for it--Good luck! I highly recommend you avoid this company and hire a different plumber!

Poor customer service. Called for an estimate and was told that there would be a $59 fee that would be credited to my account if I accepted the estimate. Told him that I was checking around and other plumbers were willing to provide an estimate without charging a fee and he hung up on me. Don't waste your time on this guy.

This guy is a scam! We were told by We Energies after an inspection that we had several very minor leaks in our gas lines in the basement. They were so small that they left the gas on, said the tenants were in no danger and gave us a month to get it fixed. Our tenants called Bohmann for an estimate and they were told $3,500. I told them this guy was crazy!

Then he asked them for $65 for the estimate. I called a licensed heating and cooling guy to check it out and he did everything for $450. We Energies said everything looked great - no more leaks, and nice repair work. Bohmann had also charged my friend's mom $950 to fix a drip in her kitchen faucet a while back. Forced her to buy a new faucet and said if she didn't buy theirs, they would not give her a warranty on the job.

She is in her 80's and had just lost her husband and was living on a fixed income. If I had known this was who my tenants were calling for an estimate, I would have warned them. I replaced their $65.

Called Bohmann Friday morning asking if they had someone who could come out to put in a warranty replacement part that Rheem had sent me for my hot water heater. The man in the office said sure, no problem we can send someone out tomorrow morning. They then called me later in the day saying they could come out that afternoon to do the replacement because someone else cancelled. Brian Bohmann came with a woman named Sally and I brought them down into the basement where the hot water heater was and gave him the part that Rheem sent to replace (it was a thermopile).

He told me it would cost $316 for him to do the work to replace the part! I said that doesn't seem right. The hot water heater itself is probably only worth $500. He became very ruined and insisted I then had to pay the $65 "service call fee" for him coming out. $65 for him to walk into my basement and walk back out. No one had ever mentioned to me there would be a fee just for him to come.

Not on the phone when I made the appointment and not when we got there. I literally had to pay him $65 for him to come to my house and leave. I then had another plumber come and replace the part for $50 and he did it in 30 minutes. Brian was going to charge $316! Do not use these people! They will rip you off!

If I could give zero stars, I would. I was charged about $650 for a $200 repair. They charge by tier - offering full service all the way down to "quick fix" or something like that. Even the quick fix is way more expensive than it should be. Also, the technician clogged the sink and then charged me to fix it. I had no choice at the time as this was a rental property.

I called the owner and he was extremely rude to me and hung up on me as I was trying to explain the situation. I can't imagine this experience going much worse. I cannot say enough bad things about this company.

I have used Service now by B. Bohmann Plumbing for plumbing service in my home. I am very pleased with the experience. The technicians were neat, clean, polite, on time, and efficient. I would definitely use their service again and feel confident recommending this plumber to my friends, neighbors, and relatives.

They are ripoff rotor fixed the problem in less than a hour after I spend 1000 and no fix they just want money no customer service you bid on job you should finish it not keeping asking more money.

They wanted $800 to change a 3ft section of leaky galvanized water piping. I read a book on plumbing and did it in 2 hours. Still had to pay te service fee tho. These guys are the biggest crooks I've ever met.

Very professional, courteous and helpful. Very willing to answer all questions and treated me with respect. I live out-of-state and was a little leery of dealing with someone I didn't know, but they kept me informed throughout the process and gave me detailed answers to my questions.

I wanted the garbage disposal out, and my toilet fixed. Toilet was 450.00 and then he replaced all the things under the sink, 900.00, wow I told him. Toilet is old, He wanted 1200.00 to put a new one in.

I was promptly contacted. The person was friendly, courteous and patient in helping me out over the phone. He did not treat it as if it was an inconvenience to be speaking with me. He didn't poo-poo my questions. He instead answered them thoroughly and made sure I understood what he was talking about and what my options were.

Very helpful over the phone. Service call was first thing next morning. They showed up on time and gave me an estimate up front. The job, a backed up double kitchen sink, was taken care of quickly and professionally. Very nice company to do business with, I would call them again.

The Plumber was timely, polite and professional. He told me how long it would take and stayed on schedule. When he gave the estimate it was hard to say exactly what was needed because the plumbing was not exposed, .but he measured the area and gave me a idea of what was needed. I was happy that when he began the work his initial diagnosis was correct.

I will forever regret not researching this company before calling them. When I called requesting an estimate for a water heater replacement, I was told that they do not have set prices, so I have to schedule someone come to the property to quote the work, but I have to pay a $59 trip fee.

I called them for and estimate for a drain spout to see if the drain was broken or damage, so the guy told me that the Service charge is 65$ but if he did the work he would wave the fees, so I said ok! He came over only to tell me that everything looked really good with out doing any testing of any kind! So I said, well since you're already here why don't u just sneak it out any ways right? He shows me his chart of prices. If would cost me about 800$ for 30 feet only! Really? And he demanded to get pay for nothing! Watch out big scam!

Called them out to my business on a Friday because the ladies toilet stopped working (flushing). Bohmann Plumbing sent two plumbers out, they reviewed the situation, had to send pictures from their phone to the "master plumber best in WI" then told us that NONE of them could figure out my problem. The plumber then went to do an estimate for us for the work, he came back and told me us that his boss told him to "stick it to us" but he wasn't going to because he was really interested in figuring out the "mystery behind my wall".

He then gave me an estimate for $4500 for two new toilets, tearing down the wall, new pipes, etc. Then they left us, our first weekend in business with no functioning toilet. I paid $70 for a snow job. The following Monday my husband and I called Martin's Plumbing, they came out in 2 hours fixed the problem, replaced the lines and charged us under $300. Will never call Bohmann again.

Broke a PVC pipe under a sink on Saturday. $59 service call. Great! $1500 for a "complete" repair, and $500 for a band aid. DO NOT use them. Total rip off.

SCAM! I'm so sorry I didn't read the reviews on Google before calling Bohmann. What a scam! Do NOT use this plumber! When I asked what their minimum job price was, Jerry said it was $49. I described the job to Jerry (an $8 replacement part and 1hr of labor only if you really take your time!), and he said he had no idea; he was just in charge of everything else "including accounting." He said a guy would show up, give me a quote, and if I didn't like it I could tell him to walk.

So when Chuck showed up and said $279, I suggested he come up with a reasonable price. He said he couldn't because this was the "price in their catalog." So I told him to walk. He then told me I owed him $49. Scam, scam, scam. And until these people make it absolutely clear that the $49 is a charge for walking in your door, their practice is nothing but unethical.

Since I can't comment below the company's response directly, I'm adding my defense here: I received the recorded phone conversation from Bohmann and a letter asking me to remove my bad review from here. The recording only adds evidence to their lack of clarity about their service fee. I ended up going with Taagen plumbing, who I'd been happy with in the past. They charged less than 50% what Bohmann quoted. See my review on Yelp.

DON'T USE BOHMANN PLUMBING! We are remodeling our house. Normally, I am getting 3 or more estimates on all the work we are doing. We had some minimal plumbing that needed to be done before the carpenters finished the kitchen. I had seen one or two Bohmann signs in Wauwatosa, so I asked them to come out and do the work. The plumber came out and we walked through the work that was needed (similar to what would happen on an estimate).

We had a wall mounted faucet installed (plumbing was already there just a modification was needed) and a toilet installation. The plumber wrote up the invoice and I commented on how expensive it was. He said that the installation of the wall mounted faucet was very complicated. An hour and a half later the plumber was done with all of his work. I was shocked!

I just wrote a check for $1,150 and he was done in an hour and a half. If the job was so complicated I would have thought it would have taken longer. I called and spoke with the owner questioning this invoice and that if this was so complicated I would have thought it would have taken longer. He didn't care what I said and arrogantly told me this was a fair price.

I can't believe I was charged $460 per hour (including estimate) or $700 per hour of work actually performed. He said they didn't charge by the hour but look out! That is what I paid! He also didn't care that I was going to be giving him an awful rating on Angie's List and planned on filing a complaint with NARI. Bottom line - I was price gouged! I Don't use this plumber!
