We have used Mallard for years because at one time they were top rated for quality and price by Checkbook. I guess they are resting on their laurels. We had a recent experience with a clogged drain that they charged us for snaking and video surveying. I asked for a copy of the video and never received it. A month later it was blocked again. They tried to claim someone had been flushing wipes, which we hadn't. Even if we had there is no way the main drain could have gone from completely clear to blocked in only a month. They fixed it the second time and tried to charge us the full price again. They also installed a new pressure control valve two years ago. Over the last year or so it has sometimes been making increasingly frequent and loud humming sounds. They looked at it several times but said they couldn't figure anything out since it wasn't making the sound while they were there. I called another plumber who quickly determined that a low quality valve had been installed and the way it was piped increased the chances of problems. They replaced the valve and everything is fine. I went back to the original invoice from Mallard and discovered that the new plumber had charged less than half what we had originally paid.

Arrived on time and did a great job, including fixing a problem caused by the appliance installer.
