Always get great, honest service from them. Highly recommend for both heating & air and plumbing.
They came out quickly to check out a leak. After assessing the issue we were quoted $600 to repair. 15 minutes later and 2 feet of pvc and they were finished. Now, i could have bought a 12 section of pvc for under $20.00 but they charged me over $400 for 2! They were there less than 30 minutes and charged me $550! Totally ripped me off!!! Well, at least he was under his quote.
I watched the owner of the company Jason Cottrell and another guy assault another person inside gateway supply Co. I felt that it was very unprofessional for an owner of a company to act that way and put their hands on someone no matter the situation. I didnt see the other guy do anything to provoke the incident so if I ever needed a plumber I will call someone else and I advise others do the same. The situation was very difficult to understand why a business owner would ever want to treat someone the way he did in public.
I cannot express enough my gratitude for Josh at Cottrell, his customer service is above and beyond any expectation. He was extremely informative, professional, and friendly. Our AC unit had pretty much died on us on a Friday afternoon, he came out and inspected the unit... diagnosed the issue and was able to order parts on Monday to come and repair it. Not only that, but during the weekend he knew it would be too hot so he left us with two portable AC units to get us by... Josh is a great asset to any company and has guaranteed that I do business with them going forward permanently. We are purchasing a new home in the next six months and he will be my go to guy when it comes to getting it inspected. Also, they are VERY, VERY reasonable with costs... the price was basically the cost of the part plus a little for labor... I offered to give more to him personally because I thought the service was so excellent and he instead said the best tip would be to leave this review... which I gladly will do so... he was an amazing guy! Thanks Cottrell for having such great employees!
Fair people; prompt and fair prices. You should consider using this company.
Quick..Professional.. Dependable! We called after 9am this morning because our heater went out. They scheduled an appointment for 3pm, the same afternoon! Brandon, our service tech actually called to try to reschedule for an earlier time, but unfortunately, we had to stick with 3pm. He was right on time and so sweet. Thank you all for helping us be warm tonight! God bless you all!
What an awesome and professional company. The entire process from start to finish was seamless. There was not only great communication from the office but the technician as well so Im very happy to refer anyone to this company. When you get great service at a very reasonable price, they need to be reviewed. My AC repair was due to another happy customer referring. Keep up the great service.
Huge thank you to Elijah, Brett & Michael. I have used Cottrell twice so far and will continue to use them for any service they are able to perform. Extremely professional, easy to schedule, very responsive office team, fair pricing, and helpful in diagnosing and explaining work needed. Cant recommend them highly enough!
Cottrell was the third company I called about servicing our vent-less gas log fireplace. Both of the other companies were more than four weeks out with appointments, but Cottrell had one available within 10 days. The plumber (Micah) called almost 40 minutes ahead of my scheduled window to confirm if anyone was home, showed up earlier than expected, and both she and the gentleman with her with professional and courteous. The service took less than an hour and Micah spent almost 10 minutes explaining the functionality of the system as we had been unable to use the remote that came with the system. Both employees wore masks and shoe coverings the entire time. This was the first time I have used Cottrells services and will certainly call them first the next time I have any need for plumbing or gas service!
I purchased a Rinnai tankless heater that was on clearance for almost 50% off, and contracted Cottrell & Co to install it. Josh came over and did a very professional, friendly, and fair estimate - along with explaining the practical differences of going from tank to tankless heaters. After signing the quote, it was about 2 business days lead time on the install. Brett did it in a day and the quality of work was very high - he also hauled away my old water heater and shed. Their work was not inexpensive, but given the quality and warranty, worth the price to me.
Good service, have had a few plumbing issues fixed by these guys. They did a good job at a reasonable price.
As always the folks at Cottrell did a wonderful job. We had a toilet leak caused by a toilet fill valve supply line nut failure. They came and checked it out and gave us not only a working toilet but also peace of mind. We use Cottrell for all of our plumbing and HVAC repairs and maintenance. Our family has always been extremely satisfied and impressed with their level of service. They have a customer in us for as long as we live in the area.
Josh and the crew did an amazing job despite the challenges of a major clog in my line.I only have one toilet in the house and couldnt imagine being without for more than a day.They were determined to help me and wouldnt quit until they fixed this.I am so grateful to these guys. They worked really hard to make sure I was taken care off. Highly recommend them !
I recently developed a problem with my kitchen sink which, try as I might, I just couldnt fix myself. I was recommended 2 plumbers and I actually called the other one first, but they couldnt see me for a week. I called Cottrell next, and they fit me in the next day. They arrived on time for the appointment window (actually a few minutes early, which I appreciated) and explained my options and costs associated with each. They got the job done in less than 45 minutes, explained everything they were doing and kept me updated during the process. They cleaned up after themselves beautifully, and charged me exactly what they quoted, which was a fair price, even though they had to put a little more effort into it than they initially thought. They were professional and friendly, and were even sweet with my dog. I am so very pleased with my experience with them that I will recommend them to everyone, and they will be my first call if I ever need a plumber again.
Very knowledgeable and professional. Hats off to Brandon and Mica.
Cottrell and Co. came out to install a PRV in my ground due to the water pressure being extremely high. Josh was very knowledgeable, professional, worked efficiently and effectively, and was super kind.It was very easy and convenient with setting up this appointment as well. I highly recommend this company for any of your plumbing needs!!
I had Ty from Cottrell & Co. investigate the source of a water stain on my first story ceiling. He wasnt able to find the source for certain, but he was able to rule out pipe leaks and narrow down the issue with information on the next steps we can take. Really friendly and helpful; will call them with my next issue.
Absolutely love working with Cottrell. Always so professional and prompt! Micah always helps me out and goes above and beyond! She is THE BEST!
Cottrell is an incredible company. We have used them for a few different issues after purchasing a new house. They are always very responsive and never attempt to overcharge. They treat each customer like they are the most important customer they have, and they treat their staff really well also. Can not recommend enough.
Great transparent service, pricing and help with water bill adjustment due to a leak.
I’ve been repairing things at a house I’m selling and at a house I just bought for 3 months now. Lots and lots of contractors and companies. Some good, some bad, but enough bad I get anxiety just thinking about calling to have any kind of issue fixed. Bret from this company was the best and most professional person I’ve worked with regarding a repair on a house. I will be doing all my plumbing and hvac business with them going forward and providing this review to my 2 realtors. They did an entire days work replacing cast iron pipes for a reasonable price. When a new issue popped up, they tried to address it and didn’t charge me any extra when they couldn’t despite spending a quarter of a day longer than expected already. An hvac duct was knocked down during the repairs and they came back as soon as possible with a hvac tech to repair it at no charge. I can’t recommend this company enough
The service was great! The job was more involved than originally thought but they stayed until it was done! Ill definitely use them again. Thanks so much
They did an excellent job after I had a different plumbing company come by and not be able to fix my clog in the kitchen sink. They were extremely knowledgeable and were able to quickly fix my issue!
Not once but several times Cottrell Plumbing has saved the day and today they did it again. After my call yesterday and getting added to Anthony’s route the thought was that he would be here after 3 to fix the kitchen nightmare. I planned the whole day off around that however he was able to come early but still helped to coordinate with my schedule! These are the most honest and pleasant people to do business with and I would refer them to anyone in need of a plumbing fix. Thank you to your entire team who makes the company run with ease.
Brett and partner were great. They arrived in a set time frame, listened to my concerns, wore shoe covers, parked on the road, shared their concerns and offered solutions. They fixed the issue and cleaned up behind themselves. Great employees with great customer service.
No complaints! We recommend Cottrell for HVAC and Plumbing needs. They have repaired a lot around our household. They are on time 🙀, they are knowledgeable & professional, & they’re efficient and friendly. I will say I was shocked by the bill; ...shocked at how low it was!! ...wouldn’t change a thing. It has taken a lifetime to find a dependable “contractor” I would 100% stand behind.
Amazing service! We had Micah install a new set of logs in one fireplace and clean and service an existing set. She was beyond helpful and did an excellent job explaining everything we need to know about the operation of our new and old logs. Prompt, friendly and extremely knowledgeable! We plan to have her come back annually to clean and check both fireplaces. Highly recommend Micah and Cottrell & Company!
These guys are awesome!! Had an intermittent problem at my parents house, they didnt stop till it was figured out. If you want quality professionals, this is the place!
Anthony and his assistant were awesome. The estimate was free and he did a great job installing a second water/drain line to change our single vanity to a double. I will use cottrell and co again and would highly recommend them.
Absolutely amazing service from Bobby at Cottrell & Co., Lexington, SC this week when my heat went out. Very professional, experienced and reliable. I am a first time customer and was very impressed. I highly recommend Cottrell & Co and will definitely call on them again if needed.
I was very pleased with my service experience, I contacted Cottrell about running a natural gas line under my house for a gas stove. I initially contact them via email and they were always fast to respond. The appointment for the estimate was scheduled in a very timely manner and the technician was right on time. The day the work was to be completed, it was clearly communicated to me that an emergency had to be dealt with first but the technician was able to let me know when they would show up and they were right on time. The technicians were very professional and completed the work to a high level. No complaints about the entire process or work completed.
Came out right away after we had a bad experience elsewhere. Fixed our issue first time and were extremely knowledgeable. Friendly and explained everything. Came in cheaper with their price quote for a broken part. Have also used them for a plumbing issue and had the same experience. Will be my go to from now on
I was very happy with the plumbing and customer service I received from Cottrell.I spoke with Meagan over the phone and she was very helpful in answering some questions I had.The technician who came to our home, Elijah, explained what needed fixed as well as what he had done when he finished his work.I then received follow-up communication from Josh.I very much appreciate the friendly, respectful, and professional way I was treated by Meagan, Elijah and Josh. I would highly recommend.
Cottrell and Co. are wonderful! They were able to get our water back on with six hours after a pipe burst in our yard. Brett and Jason are friendly, professional, and true experts!!
Cottrell & Co came to where I work to fix some plumbing issues and the techs were very knowledgeable and curtious. They were able to fix everything quickly and made sure we were informed as they went along in the process. One of their drivers lives in my neighborhood in White Knoll and always takes care to drive careful which as a mother means a lot to me. All around they are a good company with great people working there!
They are Heaven sent. I called them on a Saturday and they had a technician at my house within half a hour. Nick was great and had the problem fixed very quickly. He was also very thorough in explaining what the problem was. Thank you very much. The cost was also fair.
Our 28 year old air conditioner went out on a Tuesday and we contacted Cottrell&Co the next day. By Friday afternoon we had a cool house again!We replaced the whole heating and air system and could not possibly say enough good things about these guys! They were professional, knowledgeable and so polite. I would highly recommend them to anybody. Thanks Cameron, Brandon and Bobby for all your hard work.
I have used this company for plumbing services for over 15 years. They are consistently excellent. My most recent experience with Josh and Jason was also top notch. They replaced a rinnai tankless water heater and were polite, professional, knowledgeable and kept me updated throughout the process. Highly recommended.
They came out to look at our HVAC on 08/15. Prior to and during the visit my wife and I described the problems. They had ideas about what might be wrong, but were unable to find anything wrong at the time. They charged $89. Two days later, HVAC is having the same issues we described the first time, which they were unable to diagnose during the first visit. Offered to come out again, said they’d waive the diagnostic fee if they could figure out the problem, but if not they would charge another $89. I sent an email to a supervisor, who said this is fair.UPDATE: They (Josh) did issue a refund for the initial visit, after I sent them the invoice from the second company we used. They (Josh) also stated that in hindsight they shouldn’t have charged for a second visit. I appreciated both responses.The company I decided to go with said, without dispute or a chain of argumentative emails, that any visit within 30 days, given that it was for the same problem as the first visit, would be considered a call back, and they wouldn’t charge us a second fee.
Cameron and everyone that helped him out were awesome. It took a while to get the proper part to repair my AC, but that was because Cameron went the extra mile trying to get the manufacturer to help since the breakdown was a result of their inferior original part (this wasnt a system originally installed by Cottrell, and not a brand they typically install).The guys were here for quite a while and made sure to explain what was done. They also made improvements on the units original install while in the attic. Im writing this review literally minutes after they left, but I can say you wont beat these guys on price or service. Theyre a local shop that doesnt have to charge exorbitant prices to pay for TV and radio ads to get business.
These folks do a great job for a fair price. Always courteous and respectful. Explain issue, then quote before the work is done.
My water heater stopped working yesterday. I called Cottrell this morning at 7 a.m. and a very polite young lady answered the phone immediately. Even though they were already booked for the day, I had a technician at my home by 6 pm. Josh was probably the best service technician I have dealt with. Extremely professional and had the unit installed in no time. He answered all of my questions easily. And even though it was Friday evening, he still had another call to go to after mine. Not once did he complain about it being so late. Hands down, I would refer anybody who needs a professional plumber to definitely call them. :)
So thankful for Anthony and his professionalism. Fixed my toilet and eased our minds for a reasonable rate. Thanks so much for your great service!
These guys are second to NONE. I just had Johnny and Brendon come out to my house to look at my water pressure. Within 5 minutes they did more than the previous plumber did in an hour. They found the problem and solved it and were super nice the entire time. Outstanding job!
Called them to get an estimate they came out on time and were friendly and professional, said they will give me an estimate in few days never got it. Emailed them and called them few times with no answer a bit unprofessional
Gave an estimate on water heater at 850 and they said its a 50% chance it would work.... how is this company is business???
Had an emergency come up with water leaking from the air handler due to a clogged drain line. We were leaving the next day for the week and needed it fixed. We called after 9 pm and they had Cameron out about an hour later. He called ahead to get an idea of what it was and knew from the details that I gave him. He got it fixed quickly and also set up a follow up appointment to do a few other things to make sure it wouldnt happen again. I would use them anytime!
We have been using Cottrell & Co. for about 5 years. The staff from the office managers to the plumbers are always professional and friendly. They have replumbed one large ranch style house for me and I was very pleased. They did an excellant job of explaining what they were doing and how they would do the replumbing. They were quiet, no loud music blasting while working, and cleaned up after the job was finished. I felt the cost was reasonable.Cottrell has also done smaller jobs in my condo. They usually are able to come the day you call or within 24 hours. All of the plumbers are polite, professional, dont mind answering questions and explain what they are doing and what might have caused it. They also wear shoe protectors which is important to me. I highly recommend them and would not consider using anyone else.
These guys are amazing! Ive used them twice and both times they were punctual and proficient. I ran into my water spigot with my lawnmower and the pipe burst and started leaking into my crawl space. It created a small lake under my house in minutes. I called them and Jason was there quick and had the problem solved in under half an hour. The price was reasonable, especially since it was a Saturday. I highly recommend them.
Brett came to uninstall our water and garbage disposal before new granite was installed. He came back to reinstall it all. The job was done efficiently and as described. Brett was a fine young gentle man who had just passed his master plumbers test. He was wonderful. Highly recommend Cottrell & Co!
Anthony with Cottrell & Co was awesome! He provided an estimate and was able to do the work quickly. I would highly recommend Cottrell & Co. to anyone who is looking for a dependable plumber at a reasonable price.
These guys are just down to earth, Good people. I have used them on two occasions, once for A/C and once for plumbing. I would not hesitate to have them do anything for me in the future.
Very professional and helpful! I would definitely use them again, and recommend them to anyone. Not the cheapest, but very fair, and very helpful.
Cottrell & Company Plumbers came to my business after hours in Lexington and fixed a broken pipe. The owner (I think his name was Jason?) came out with one of his master plumbers and they took care of it super fast! They were friendly and I couldnt believe they didnt charge me extra for coming to an emergency plumber call at night!
Amazing service and great company! Licensed Plumber Anthony P. was professional, courteous and knowledgable! He responded quickly to the situation, properly assessed the damage and immediately repaired the issues. The plumbing emergency was due to my neighbors plumbing issue and it caused problems in my condo. Anthony was responsive and provided exceptional customer service. Thank you Anthony for your service and professionalism. People like you make emergency plumbing situations so much easier to deal with.TMDColumbia, SC
Don’t waste your time with the other companies! Call Cottrell first!! They are amazing!
Dont let these guys fool you. When it comes to large commercial projects they are out of their league. Under bid project due to lack of knowledge. Backed out of contract week prior to start date. Never rendered services and still cashed check for $10,000.00. Good little mom & pop outfit but large projects are well out of their league! Hope no one else gets burned by them!
I called around 7 am one morning after my unit was making a horrible noise from the night before. Bobby was at my house by lunch the same day and was able to locate the problem and had my ac back up and running within the hour! I felt like he was honest with me about the problem and didn’t try to scam me and was professional throughout the entire process. I would definitely recommend these guys!!
Cottrell’s Plumbing is an excellent company with a caring professional staff. I am a very satisfied customer who will always call on them for there service. Recently, during the Christmas holidays, I had a temporary dental piece accidentally fall into the drain of my bathroom sink. The manager on duty, Josh, came to my house within (15) minutes and recovered the dental piece in just a few moments. Josh would not charge me for there service; he was glad that he could help. Jason, the company owner, Josh and there entire staff are awesome!I had to have Cottrell’s return last week for another plumbing matter. I spoke with Nicole the receptionist requesting assistance. Initially the earliest a technician could respond was the next day; however, she soon made arrangements for a technician to come that day. Brett and Justin arrived shortly and they had the matter successfully resolved within (10) minutes. As always they did an awesome job. My thanks to Cottrell’s; in particular Nicole, Brett and Justine. Great job!
Not your average plumbing company! I called Cottrell out after a $150 water bill (usually$40) and Justin had me diagnosed and fixed in about 10 minutes. Great customer service and extremely fair prices for the amount of quality provided.
Cottrell & Company Plumbing provides OUTSTANDING service. They were patient with me as I asked numerous questions and specific estimates. Their installs, including a new Kohler Cimarron Toilet, was perfect. Nick took the time to ensure the installation was beyond awesome and ensured the area was perfectly clean before he left. Thanks Cottrell!
They came to our house at 11:30 at night when a pipe busted and spent 90 minutes fixing it in the cold. Then they charged an embarrassingly small bill. Time and again we have called them and they always offer an amazing service at a great rate.
Absolutely the best technician Ive ever dealt with for my HVAC.
Mr. Hellams was our plumber. Extremely knowledgeable, courteous, punctual and a pleasure to deal with, will use again most definitely. Will recommend to everyone
Meagan who works their scheduling was absolutely amazing to work with and Micah did an outstanding job with our unit!Highly recommend this company!!
Did a kitchen remodel and had Cottrell replace old sink plumbing with new, move dishwasher and install sink fixtures and garbage disposal. Nick was our plumber and hes unbelievably good at what he does. Total professionalism on all accounts, wouldnt use anyone else!
Cottrell and Co. replaced the toilet in my master bathroom and did a great job. Removed the old one, cleaned up afterwards, and charged a very fair price. Will definitely use them again when I need plumbing services.
Anthony and Jacob came and solved a problem that had been lingering for months. Very professional and courteous. I so appreciate their efforts. I am a loyal Cottrell customer from now on
BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE AND PRICES!!My partner and I are always impressed at how fast and friendly our experiences are with Cottrell Heating and Plumbing. No one likes to call a Plumbing or an HVAC company because it usually means that you are going to fork out some money. With this company we have never felt ripped off or taken advantage of and the people that do the work are friendly and professional. A couple of years ago they came out to re-do the gas line to our heating unit and our hot water heater went out during the coldest week of winter. The guys that were doing the work offered to bring us space heaters because we had a child under the age of one and they wanted to make sure that our little guy would be alright. This time our HVAC unit has completely stopped working and they brought us a portable air unit to help keep us cool until they can get the new unit installed. They are simply the BEST at customer service!! They will always be our number one call for any HVAC or Plumbing issues.
Called these guys at 8:30 on a weeknight with a bad AC unit. Owner Jason answered and was kind and empathetic from the word go, had a technician there within the hour, and our system was fixed within 30 minutes of his arrival. They didnt gauge us with an after hours fee, and technician Bobby was very helpful, willing to explain exactly what went wrong, and just generally a very nice guy. As awesome an experience as you could have when your AC goes out in June in Columbia. Thanks again Cortrell & Co. Youve got my business from here on out.
Great Service!
We recently had to have a new HVAC system installed. It was long overdue and a process that we were dreading!When we finally decided to have this done, we called Cottrell & Co. because they had done such an awesome job with some plumbing work we had done in the past.Bobby came out quickly for the estimate, and gave our system a thorough examination. The next day, he, Brandon, and Cameron started to replace our HVAC. The crew was extremely professional and polite. More importantly, I was very impressed with how concerned Bobby was that we understood and agreed to everything happening throughout the whole process.As far as the system itself goes, its so amazing! This time last year our old unit would run 24/7 and could not get our house colder than 78/80 during the day. Our new unit keeps our house at 70 at all times and definitely does not run all day. The best part though, my electric bill has cut almost in half!Thank you Cottrell & Co. for consistently being the best at what you do, whether it be plumbing or HVAC!
Quoted me $18400 for a 2.5 bath 1835 sq ft house absolutely REDICULOUS, never called to ask qualifying questions had to call 2x and stop in 1x to get this done 3 weeks later really? 2017 and your still quoting crappy electric water heater.... Total job will be less then 100 ft of 4 drain and maybe 150 of cpvc upstairs bathrooms is right above downstairs bathroom and laundry room
I feel higjly over charged for 20 minutes of work . I understand im paying for a srevice but 450..00 to change tbe fill valves in my toilets is ridiculously high .then i had to get a outher plumber to adhust the water levels in tbe tanks
Honest and good at what they do-exactly what I look for with a service provider!
Excellent and prompt service! Thank you!!
We have used Cottrell & Co on several occasions and could not be more impressed with their professionalism and work.
Anthony is a great guy
Great customer service!
Great technicians
