November 17 2023 Mark J. I decided to get a pro to replace my toilet after falling on it and breaking the bottom flange and the wax ring was leaking, so I figured I'd call Levahn bros, good as any, since I'm "disabled" now and too hard too to walk now, I didn't want to carry out or carry in a new toilet Dave came out and switched them out, after he left and I looked at the floor and "poop and dirt" was around the bowl flange I lifted the top up and the water was right at the top of the fill tube I called and got the owner "Andy Levahn" and told him I thought Dave should have "cleaned the floor" where the toilet sits Andy said its "not our job" to clean the floor I said, I beg to differ, is it my job to clean the floor, he didn't know he said, he didn't know which way to turn the "adjuster" either c/w or c/cw on the float assembly, he said I could look in the tank, and could find out, I said why don't you look in the tank and tell me, he begrudging did It but he didn't want to I also asked about the "silver" looking tank bolts thinking they might be "mild steel" that rusts, then you get "rust stains" in the bowl in 3 years, and rust forms on the "flapper" and starts leaking he said they are "yellow brass" I said "no" they are not yellow brass he said he needed to go to the back and look in a "new box" to see, he confirmed yes their "silver" but because they are stainless steel he had to look for a magnet and confirmed non magnetic stainless steel For being a plumbing store owner you don't seem to "know very much" he started "whining" and ready to hang up on me so I apologized Then he said you sure ask a-lot of "fucking questions" I couldn't believe my ears and told him so go and "swear" all you want, it doesn't affect me, he started "laughing" asking a "few basic questions" is a-lot for Andy the owner of a Hardware Hank and Levahn Bros plumbing WOW!!!! I'M BLOWN AWAY he now knows, but "should have known" what he "sells" before I called I'm still shaking my head, Andy is "probably" a better business man than a plumber, he apparently can't answer "simple" plumbing questions because he is a "dumb head" when it comes to plumbing, ask an "employee" they need to know more than Andy does Sitting on my new American standard PRO toilet with my back against the tank my manhood is touching the porcelain and the toilet seat hangs over the front of the bowl by an 1" inch, I can't believe I bought a "pig in a poke" I wish I went somewhere else , where they work with "their customers" not make up "excuses" why they can't help you !!!! in 1990 I bought a Crane toilet at Levahn bros it took 3 - 3.5 gallons to "flush" some Cheerios and when i called Loren, Andy's dad Loren didn't stand behind the Crane toilet either they later found that Crane had a-lot of problems with their toilets "like father / like son", avoid this place and go to Maple Grove Menards THEY STAND BEHIND WHAT THEY SELL, NO QUESTIONS ASKED I told Andy : "If this is your best, I must protest, I'm not impressed !!!!!!" my quote

This place is amazing. I've had weird hardware problems a handful of times. They've shown me what to get and then just fixed them for me while in the store. I had a shower chair leg with the threads messed up so the foot wouldn't attach with existing bolt. One staff took it in the back and fixed it. Didn't charge me a thing. Though I did end up buying some small toys for my kiddos. Cannot recommend this place enough.

I’ve grown to love this place. At first I thought they would be too small to have what I need for house projects but every time I call, they have what I need. When I show up, a staff member always walk me me to the product and give me some advice. So much better than going to Lowe’s or Home Depot. I’m also always in and out in less than 10 minutes. Great neighborhood hardware store.

LeVahn Brothers installed a water heater at my condo. The installer deposited sludge (from the old water heater) into utility room’s drain. Consequently, the drain clogged. There was a disagreement as to what caused the clog. Subsequently, I received the two pictures and videos from the tenant informing of excessive water in the utility room the migrated to the garage stairway and ultimately down to the garage on the lowest level. The water is backwash from the water softener regeneration.LeVahn was not responsive in taking ownership of their installer’s incompetence or fabrication of his actions. Although LeVahn did good job with the installation, they were dishonest in the approach and resolution of the issue. Overall, I do not think this is representative of the company’s culture, but rather the bad act of one employee and the management commitment to the employee, and their bottom line.For this reason, I would not trust nor use LeVahn’s service unless I could 100% visually monitor every step of the work being done.Service: Water heater installation

Not the biggest store, however, they still always have what I need! They're always there to greet you at the door and help you get in and out of the store quickly.

Had a pinhole leak in our main supply pipe in our basement and found our old main shutoff gate valve just below the leak didn't fully close due to age and lack of use. Put in a request over the weekend (leak started Easter Sunday, of course) and first thing Monday morning had a call from Andy to get details on our issue. Andy coordinated with the city on our behalf to have our water shut off at the street the next morning and had a plumber out an hour after that. Andy was also extremely polite and patient when I had to call him back a couple more times to ask some other random questions about the job. I had called a couple other places for estimates/scheduling and no one was able to confidently coordinate our repairs and answer questions as quickly as LeVahn Bros.I am unfortunately blanking on the name of the plumber who came out to do the work (I want to say Brad?) but regardless, he was also friendly and professional, explained our options, and executed the repair flawlessly. He replaced our degraded valve and the main supply pipe from the meter to the water softener and cleaned up the puddle that was left from the leak.While I certainly hope I don't need to call a plumber again anytime soon, LeVahn Bros is definitely up at the top of my list for future jobs.Service: Plumbing pipe repair

These guys were super helpful. They didn't have the part I needed but pointed me to exactly where I needed to go. Went too a couple of Home Depots and a Menards and got zero help. I will start going here first from now on.

I had my car radiator break near here I went in to find tape or anything to get me home and the amazing people working in here were the biggest help I could have asked for. They walked to where my car was broken down helped find out what went wrong then grabbed parts and tools from inside and fixed it. They only let me pay for the parts needed even when I offered cash for the labor, I absolutely would not have been able to fix it myself saved me an expensive tow truck or risk damaging my car further. Can't thank them enough, would buy all my plumbing and hardware goods from here. Highly Recommend.

We hired Levahn Brothers to re-do the plumbing behind our hot water heater, softener, and the iron filter. From the beginning with the estimation process, to the planning what they would do, to the completion. we were completely satisfied. Andy was right on with the estimate and Jeff did an excellent job planning and completing the redo of the plumbing. We could not be more satisfied. We would definitely use Lavahn Brothers again and highly recommend them.

Why would anyone go anywhere else for plumbing supplies? The store manager has an incredible level of knowledge of every potential fitting or device. They are incredibly helpful and friendly.I drive past over a dozen neighbor hardware stores and two big box home improvement stores to get here. This is the place to go!Services: Shower repair
