The only experience I have with them is that I had them come out to my houae to give me an estimate for some plumbing work. They came out, spent about 30 minutes and said they would call back with an estimate but they never did. Never understood it but moved on to a different plumber.

Mike Scott was recommended to us for some plumbing work. I thought they did a good job. When we had another issue we used them again and were happy. Only two experiences and pretty simple work but they were fine.

Another company we have used is Rocket Rooter Plumbing. A slightly more difficult job and we were also happy with them.

We used Mike Scott a couple of times on plumbing and were well satisfied.
We'd certainly use them. Fast, courteous, affordable and quality work.

We recently had a new Hot water tank installed. Competitive price and very professional installation. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again.

We had an emergency leak, called Mike Scott, plumber was there in the stated time frame, and repaired the 2 broken pipes in a very reasonable time and cost.

We have used Mike Scott since 2010, multiple times. Staff a pleasure to work with. Plumbers always respectful and on time for their time frame. Prices are less than some other companies.

We have used Mike Scott plumbing for several repairs, most recently installing a new garbage disposal. We have alway been happy with their work and cost. They are our first call for plumbing issues. Mike Scott Plumbing also installed our water heater for TECO program.

Yes - we’ve had Mike Scott Plumbing do several repairs/improvements to our home over the last 9 years - always on time, always great work & reasonably priced. Tried 2 other companies in emergencies- both poor work & expensive!

We had an emergency water issue and called several companies. Most said yes they’d come in 2 or 3 days. Mike Scott came in 30 minutes. Had to dig waist high to fix the problem. Worked hard and fast to fix the problem correctly. Very reasonable for all they had to do. Would not hesitate to use them again.

I would not use Mike Scott Plumbing. Had a bad experience with them on a water heater. Installed a brand new water heater and while installing they dented it and put a huge scratch in the front of the unit which is already rusting. Would not even provide any financial credit and were treated very rudely by the service manager.

One service guy was excellent and did the job efficiently. The next guy a couple years later was not willing to address my issue and said that's just the way it works. Not true - a couple years lady a handyman put in a new part and now it works the way it should. So not Mike Scott's fault - the serviceman they have working for them apparently didn't feel like doing the job that day.

We have had good and bad experiences with Mike Scott Plumbing. Be proactive and don’t settle for less than excellent service. They were responsive when we did so. Avoid Frank Gay at all costs!

Mike Scott does the warranty repairs for my house (currently under a year old). Very responsive and did great work. I have to caveat that statement with the fact that it was warranty work, so the developer has set response times. Not sure if that is a factor or not.

Have had Mike Scott in twice (two different issues). I got an appointment quickly, they came on time, did the work, explained what they were doing and were polite throughout. So, based on those two times, I'd call them again.

We've had them several times with NO issues. They were small jobs but they came the same day and were in and out in a timely manner. The last time we needed a bathroom faucet fixed. A young woman came and did a great job. So both guys and gals are looking to work in the trades.

We have used Mike Scott several times and have been very satisfied with staff, work quality & pricing. When we did have an issue it was addressed in a timely manner beyond our expectation.

I’ve used them to install a tankless water heater and they repaired a leak with my sprinkler system under my driveway. Very pleased with them. Would use again

Mike Scott replaced my water heater earlier this year. Prompt, professional, cleaned up and the cost was reasonable. Very satisfied and won’t hesitate to use them for future needs.

Lenhart electric, I bought a replacement ceiling fan at Hime Depot, they referred my installation request to 5 contractors, Lenhart was the least expensive, came the next day. The man knew exactly how to assemble and install the fan. Job complete in under an hour.
Highly recommend Lenhart.

About 5 years ago, SECO contracted with Mike Scott Plumbing to install our tankless water heater. They did a quality, professional job. A neighbor used another plumber and the installation to me looks like a kid did the job with very little skills to depend on.
I have used Mile Scott plumbing for a tank flush and one repair in that time. I found them to be responsive and reasonable when it comes to their charges.

My experience has been nothing but posative.

I was satisfied with the work I had done on refiguring plumbing for new kitchen sink plumbing without the garburator, but was surprised to see how much time was being spent on teaching an apprentice and how nonchalant they were about bringing in real dirty boots through the house. But the job was well done and pretty good price.

Have done multiple dealings with mike Scott. They have done good work on the gas side and a couple of doings on the plumbing side. The last time I had them out for plumbing it was terrible. Had a rookie come out which couldn’t do anything. I had them come back out with a more experienced person and it was a better experience.

I've used Mike Scott a few times and it seems to be hit or miss. Installed a new water heater - great. Installed a recirculating pump had to call a few times. When I agreed to buy a new one myself - not from them - they agreed to install it as no cost. Many times I have had to correct their repair after they left. One gets the impression that they are all interns. And, they may be. In Florida, plumbers working for a corporation do not need to be individually licensed - they are working under the master license of the owner. Same goes for electricians.

I have switched to Isherwood Plumbing - licensed and carries insurance. Lives in TV - 352-259-9331

I have used then twice the first was to hookup my washer and dryer when I first moved into my home and the guy was fast and excellent. The second time I had a young guy come for my leaking faucet and it took him over 1 hour of time to remove the handle, replace the small washer and reassemble the handle!

I had Mike Scott come to my house to replace a leaking kitchen faucet. I was told that it could not be fixed it needed to be replaced. I was charged $100. Good luck. diagnosing the kitchen faucet leak took about 10 minutes talking on his phone took about another 20 minutes and talking to me Took up about 5 to 10 minutes, so I guess the excessive charge for nothing was because we went past a 30 minute mark but I’m not sure.

Your post doesn't make sense. When a plumber comes to your house, there will be a service call and diagnostic fee, regardless of how long it takes. But, you said that he came to replace a faucet. So, did he replace the faucet, or just charge you $100? If you decided to not replace the faucet, then you would still owe the fee for a service call. Please clarify.

I’ve used Mike Scott for several jobs, some bigger than others. The always did great work and we’re reasonably priced. They are on time, courteous and neat, ie, they clean up the work area when they’re finished.

We finally have hot water thanks to Village Plumber LLC. A+ above and beyond for Village Plumber LLC. Devon was totally awesome on the phone, sympathetic that we hadn’t had hot water for 9 days and expedited the repair to accommodate us and get the job done. The repair technician picked up the part and installed it and then returned the old part for less then 1/2 of what Mike Scott Plumbing was going to charge. Mike Scott didn’t get it done and charged us $189. and then they wanted $989. to install the new part. And the $189 that we already paid them … they weren’t going to credit towards what we were going to have to pay to get the new installed. NOPE We felt Mike Scott Plumbing took advantage of us. Thumbs down for Mike Scott Plumbing.

Just wondering how many of these post are from people who work for Mike Scott? I called then once and their quote was so high I had to go to a different service.

We used them to install a new NG line for an outdoor kitchen. Work done quick and professionally. They were competitively priced, based on the estimates I received. Just came back out to connect the grill head the line was run for. Works like a charm.

Would recommend at least getting a quote from them for any work you need done.

We had an emergency leak, called Mike Scott, plumber was there in the stated time frame, and repaired the 2 broken pipes in a very reasonable time and cost.

We’ve used Mike Scott for two relatively easy jobs: replacing and upgrading a water shutoff valve and the same for an outside spigot. Reasonable charge and good work on both occasions. And prompt service.
