The evidence — in reviewers' own words
Critical
“I called a Dauenhauer on a Saturday for an emergency that was a gas leak. I was grateful that they prioritized my call and where on site quickly. However, the Daunhauser plumber told me it was going to cost $980 To “rebuild” a flex line from the HVAC To the gas line. The flex line turned out to be a Less than 2 feet with some connections. After I questioned the time and cost, he was kind enough to reduce my bill …”
Positive
“Ryan was a very nice guy. We had a main line clog that thankfully we caught early. We contacted Dauenhauer plumbing. The receptionist was friendly. We had a technician (Ryan) show up to the house within 2 hours of the initial call. Ryan was a nice guy. He was friendly, and answered all my questions. The best thing was he solved the issue. Minus 1 star for price of service. But for everything else a 5 for sure.”
“Ryan Lawrence Did great on replacing the sensor. The sensor was pricey but he was efficient on getting the job done. He check the vents and change the filter while checking 🙂 … I hope this fixes the issue since I’ve had someone else come and clean the old sensor that goes off frequently and just kept adding up so I guess it was due for a replacement”
