My 7 year old water heater stopped heating and it started gushing water! I called Fritz Baumann & Sons and Brett patiently walked me through step by step of what I needed to do to stop it. He then asked for pictures of my current set up to see what he needed to help remedy the problem. I received a call a short while later saying he found all he needed and would be out that afternoon to replace my water heater and update my existing associated plumbing to new code.

They were timely, neat, and very communicative. Its almost unheard of to get such quick service these days. I would definitely use this company again and would recommend them to anyone. It was also nice to learn that Fritz Baumann & Sons is family run and a 4th generation company.

I had a toilet drain clogged up from an accidental flush of a toilet cleaner head. I tried everything I could but it was beyond my reach with the limited tools I had. I called the office and they were very professional. They fit me in their schedule as soon as they could and were able to fix the issue in less than an hour upon arrival. Very trustworthy business and I highly recommend their services if you ever need them. My biggest thing when selecting a plumber was having a business I can trust and Fritz Baumann & Sons is that business for me!

I recently worked with Fritz Baumann & Sons to have my hot water tank and my main water line replaced. I can't recommend their company enough! From when Steve came out to provide an estimate for both projects to completion, they were great. During the estimate, Steve walked through everything that would be done and the process. He answered any questions I had and I felt comfortable all the work they would be doing.

They also had fair prices, and were more competitive than with another company I had out. The hot water tank replacement went seamlessly. The workers showed up on time and called before they were heading out. They were friendly. The water line replacement was more challenging, but their workers handled it well and kept me updated throughout the process.

Long story short, the city's water line had some damage, so the plumbers completed their work, but were unable to hook up my line to the city's. Then it was left up to the city to repair their line. Steve called the city on my behalf and pressured them to fix their line as I had no water. He provided me with contact information for the city, as well.

The city came out quickly to repair their line. I have an old house and the water line was original to the house. After upgrading the line, the water pressure I have is AMAZING. Pleased with all their work!

Replaced entire kitchen drain system. The office person was extremely nice and tried to work me in same day but my fault. They did show at appointed time and took time to explain and fix issue at same time. Have me a receipt for every part used and time was accurate. they are now my go to folks

This is a small business, but small means to talk directly to the owner when there are questions. Steve spent the time to explain the job, to over things with old plumbing that could go wrong. and how they would charge for the work. Plumber was Tim-34 years experience, friendly and would answer any questions as the job proceeded. When he got into a little bit of unexpected work, there was no complaints-he just competently worked his way through it.

Job was started as scheduled; I got a call from Baumann at 7:30 am when the City of Columbus was on its way to shut off the water at the curb, and I got a call when their plumber was on his way. I bid the job with another company, and Baumann was more than competitive. This company provides great service, and live people answer their phone. This is a A+ company that deserves its 5 star rating.

Installed a new gas line to convert existing wood burning fireplace to gas. Very knowledgeable and had zero reservations with the quality of their work. Highly recommend.

This company is top notch! Everything went smoothly from scheduling to an on-time arrival and a same day resolution. The plumber, Jake, was extremely professional, polite, and knowledgable. Service: Toilet repair

A big box store installer was unable to install a new gas range because he said the gas line connection was rusty. He was afraid to disconnect the line and recommended we hire a plumber. We needed to find a plumber quickly because we were having a party two nights later. Called several companies. Before any of the other companies called me back, Blair Baumann returned my call.

I was surprised when he arranged for two plumbers to arrive within the hour. They did, were professional and efficient. This company helped me out of a jam. We will use them again and recommend them to others.

We had two toilets installed, very professional, good value and will definitely would use them again for service. I wanted to give an update a year later. One of our toilet seats had 2 cracks in it, I called the company, sent an email with pictures of the seat, the owner called to confirm receiving the email and pictures. The owner placed an order for the toilet seat and the toilet seat came in earlier than expected, the company came out replaced the seat and we are back in business. This company is still holding its standard of being professional and backing up their warranty of their products, we will still use them in the future.

The technician was friendly, very knowledgeable, and got an excellent estimate for me prior to starting the job. He ran new pipe for a gas range in a complicated older home with a hard to negotiate crawl space. He was professional and completed the job in a timely fashion. I highly recommend Fritz Baumann & Sons.

I had contacted several plumbing companies to replace my defective gas hot water heater. I couldn't get any company to properly evaluate my issue and it would take two weeks to dispatch a plumber. Finally I contacted Fritz Baumann and spoke with Steve who took the time to evaluate my issue and even checked my current tanks warranty. Steve proposed a cost effective solution and dispatched a crew within 24 hours. Brett and Jake were the two plumbers that arrived on time and professionally explained the removal and replacement process.

I was incredibly pleased with their knowledge and the timely manner in which they installed my new tank. The day after the installation I received a call from Fritz, Steve who wanted to make sure that I was 100% ok with the service. Because of Fritz Baumann I have a renewed belief in customer service professionals. Try Fritz Baumann for your plumbing needs you won't regret it!

Fritz Baumann Plumbers repaired a leaking pipe behind my washing machine and reconfigured piping under tub. Technician Blair was able to troubleshoot the problem areas quickly and solved my plumbing problems. Both plumbers were professional and very knowledgeable. So glad I contacted Fritz Baumann & Sons. I would highly recommend them.

In one word, EXCELLENT! Baumann and Sons came out to a house we are rehabbing, and replaced an old water heater, repaired a wobbly shower valve connection, pulled and replaced toilets, and removed a shower (just to name a few things!).

We had them replace the old lead drain pipes from the upstairs bathroom. Because this is an older home built in the early 1920's, the bathroom floor is concrete and tile. We wanted the work completed without damaging the floor.

Fritz Baumann & Sons, Inc. replaced our bathroom shower faucet and pedestal sink faucet. The plumbing work required additional plumbing, by extending the showerhead height and adding shutoffs for the shower faucet.

Tom removed our old hot water heater and found leaky pipes. He replaced the pipes and installed the water heater with a pan because our basement is finished. He was very courteous and knowledgeable.

I have never experienced such poor customer service from a company. And from the owner no less. If you want a company to stand by its work, don't use Fritz Bauman. We had called the company back after a leak continued.
