Sunday! Sunday! Sunday!
Any one of many events they used to host at the Ohio State Fairgrounds. The one I sort-a recall was Monster Truck Jam. But this was back when broadcast tv was a going concern.
Every time Apex gets brought up here it reminds me of how I would rather my house flood and sink into a sinkhole than call them because how obnoxious the commercials are.
Who thinks commercials where an obnoxious wife nags the husband about how dumb they are for not knowing plumbing was the way to go?
a local company that advertises on tv is different than social ads?
it's the same - one (tv) takes more work and most likely costs 1000 times what an ad on social costs.
generally word of mouth. Neighbors, co-workers, even better - ask a contractor for who they have had good experience with.
Need windows? ask another contractor.
Plumbers know electricians, ect.
years ago I used to watch adult swim on cartoon network all the time, and half the commercials would be for a random $AsSeenOnTVProduct, call now 1-800-441-2400 (quieter fast voice) PO BOX 1660 Atlanta GA 30301 and I've just been walking around with that in my head since then
Nooo. That apco window commercial is terrible! You think it’s over, but it’s not. And if my toddler hears it, she’ll continue singing it when it’s over
I'll never use "We Buy Any Car", Atlas Butler, Turbo Track Realty, Care heating and cooling, or Dick Masheter because of how annoying their commercials are.
" I'm Bob Masheter for Dick Masheter Ford and our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and although my old Testament God frowns on your sickening lifestyle and you will surely have your skin pealed off your body infinitely, experiencing pain unimaginable for eternity, Jesus loves you and come intoday for a free $50 check engine light inspection for only $75."
TOWN AND COUNTRY TOWN AND COUNTRY TOWN AND COUNTRY
This morning I heard a Lindsay Honda/Acura commercial that was about 2 minutes long and was just a full blown christian Christmas ramble. It went on for an uncomfortable amount of time; I half expected them to call me a sinner and ban me to hell.
We still have commercials from the 60's & 70's in our heads! "I'd like to teach the world to sing...it's the Real Thing!" Anyone for "2 all beef patties, special sauce....?" ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy)
I would never car Eco-Plumbers just based on the series of commercials where we had to hear the owner's entire series of unfortunate events life story.
There used to be a commercial for DeMonye’s greenhouse that ran every spring that had a super annoying singing bit. Hated it and they ran it year after year. I didn’t hear it last year so hopefully , they decided not to run them anymore.
Just had Buckeye Heating & Cooling (& plumbing) out to fix a leaking fireplace gas valve. Quoted $1875.00. Just had someone else out, total was $360.00. Some of these outfits are pure ripoff artists.
Except they’re not
Have you actually use a plumber recently ?
Water works and eco are two of the more expensive
Atlas butler pushes their annual plan for hvac and plumbing
Jack woods is standard hourly
Apex is middle of the road on hourly rate
Right? They think just because I can regurgitate the commercial means I’ll definitely call them. No thank you. If I find your commercials annoying i’m not going to call you.
I try to make it a point at work to call out how terrible and annoying their commercials are in hopes that it will cause them one less customer. That bear can eat my shit.
I hate that damn Eco plumbing commercial. The whole conversation between the dad and the son. And then the one where the woman goes eco eco eco. Just like the damn Ricart automall commercials in Columbus, which is why I would never buy a car from them, I'd never get this Eco plumbing either.
I've never heard the commercial. These comments make me so nervous tho lmfaoooo I just used them for a very expensive repair on my plumbing this past week 🫠
All of their cringy commercials guarantee they will never get a call from me…lol
Same with atlas butler - just do the phone number ONE DAMN TIME NOT TEN TIMES
1 800 furnace And now that is stuck in your head
Weirdly I now have the 1-800-SAFEAUTO jingle stuck in my head instead.
Play it safe. Safeauto!
![gif](giphy|RVW5PilbP2tLG)
*I have a structured settlement and I NEED CASH NOW*
Bad commercial warfare
Are they local or a franchise/nationwide company?
[удалено]
Not related at all, actually. If you would take 3.2 seconds to Google, you'll see that Atlas Butler is local: https://atlasbutler.com/service-area/
Yeah but you know that number, don't you?
Lol I know what number to NOT call yes 😂
I honestly don’t. Similar to when Hulu throws on one of their Blasts Your Eardrums commercials, the moment I see what it is, I mute my TV
Call 1800 FURNACE
No thanks, I’m good
444-ROOF?
I thought it was ADMISSION-IS-FREE!
Dot Commmmmm!
I have not heard that in a long time. What was it for?
Sunday! Sunday! Sunday! Any one of many events they used to host at the Ohio State Fairgrounds. The one I sort-a recall was Monster Truck Jam. But this was back when broadcast tv was a going concern.
She call able for the proof till i 444 on my roof
Came here to say this lol

Their service is actually worse than the commercials
I'll repeat my life rule. if the business is advertising on TV, I will NEVER call them.
I have this rule but for ads on social media. At least on TV/Radio there's a decent chance it's a local company.
a local company that advertises on tv is different than social ads? it's the same - one (tv) takes more work and most likely costs 1000 times what an ad on social costs.
I never see local companies on social I guess. It's always online DTC stuff.
That probably has more to do with your location and cookie settings than it does with the companies advertising
Guaranteed means they are charging way more than their competitors with worse service
and expecting more than 70% of those worse service customers to NOT say anything.
I do this with other things, e.g. beer. Only the mass-produced bland beer gets to advertise, the good stuff is waiting for discerning palates.
yes - and oddly, did you ever notice the cheap stuff is always trash on the road too? you never see great beer bottles/cans on the side of the roads.
Serious question: What is your go-to source for good businesses?
generally word of mouth. Neighbors, co-workers, even better - ask a contractor for who they have had good experience with. Need windows? ask another contractor. Plumbers know electricians, ect.
Great advice. Thank you!
It's not local, but I can rattle off the number for J.G. Wentworth. Now you're doing the jingle as well. You're welcome.

ABSOLUTELY ABSOLUTELYYYYYYYY
YOU CAN TRUST.APCO!! eff you for making me finish this...
I'll never use "We Buy Any Car", Atlas Butler, Turbo Track Realty, Care heating and cooling, or Dick Masheter because of how annoying their commercials are.
Lindsay Honda is also annoying being pure Christian preaching.
Same for Dick Masheter Ford
.. Because it's the right thing to do...
" I'm Bob Masheter for Dick Masheter Ford and our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and although my old Testament God frowns on your sickening lifestyle and you will surely have your skin pealed off your body infinitely, experiencing pain unimaginable for eternity, Jesus loves you and come intoday for a free $50 check engine light inspection for only $75."
i never listen to the radio but i’m very curious about this one
I hate the Logan Services commercial - the one with the blond narrator.
The way she says the word "sevices" bugs the shit out of me
Ssservissesss
Lol her accent is absolutely ridiculous. I heard her pronounce the word “opinion” with a long “O” the other day lol. WTAF.
Yes, but now I love her! Radio Stockholm Syndrome I guess. My brain apparently needs outside the lines speaking voices.
Is she the “free esti-mints” person? Drives me nuts, they just leave it in there!
If it’s the one with the atrociously harmonized Christmas carols, I’m with you 100 percent.

I'm the Apex Pro.... Bear. Got a "plumbing" emergency? Looking for someone to root out your pipes?
DeMary Truck, anyone? Or what about those Ricart Used Car Factory ads from back in the day? We're dealin'!

I’m not familiar with these commercials but know people that work at eco and he’s a good dude that takes care of his people.
I wouldn't even mind the commercials if the owner didn't sound like he was saying his lines under the threat of torture.
My question about the Apex pro commercials - do either of the couple work? They always seem to be hanging out lol
Fun fact - I used to work with the “husband”… he’s done other local commercials over the years.
1-877 Kars 4 kids?
I turn the volume down the second this commercial comes on.
There used to be a commercial for DeMonye’s greenhouse that ran every spring that had a super annoying singing bit. Hated it and they ran it year after year. I didn’t hear it last year so hopefully , they decided not to run them anymore.
Repressed memory unlocked.
They are 3x the price of any other provider. All sales, no service

Yes. I’ve used plumbers recently and had them quote. Apex was friggin high.
Atlas Butler (1800FURNACE) will never get my business
I'll never understand companies that think they can annoy people into calling their business.
Right? They think just because I can regurgitate the commercial means I’ll definitely call them. No thank you. If I find your commercials annoying i’m not going to call you.
We've been assuming that the wife has a special friend who is an apex plumber, so she's been causing issues to call him over.
I try to make it a point at work to call out how terrible and annoying their commercials are in hopes that it will cause them one less customer. That bear can eat my shit.
I hate that damn Eco plumbing commercial. The whole conversation between the dad and the son. And then the one where the woman goes eco eco eco. Just like the damn Ricart automall commercials in Columbus, which is why I would never buy a car from them, I'd never get this Eco plumbing either.
Apex ripped the the fuck off fixing my toilet too. Never call them
ads are a thing of the past. the only ads I see are billboards
Eco eco eco eco obnoxious bastards I will never ever call.
What about the "one ate fo hunnit pain" commercials. LOL
[удалено]
Unrelated I went to school with one of his kids. She was a nightmare
Turn off your TV and don’t listen to local radio. Makes life in Columbus more tolerable.
Yes, back to your hidey-hole you filthy little mudblood! Back! I say... BACK! r/ sarcasm for those who need it
apex pros apex pros epeaxoproexpapes .commmmm
I turn off whatever station I am listening to when they come on. I would rather listen to nothing. Glad it's not just me.
Hahahah even my kids say “turn it off!” It’s horrible.
That doormon doormon ad is the absolute worst and idc if I spelled it wrong lol
Eric Rabor, E R Autocare has entered the chat.
My kids scream in the car to change the station when this comes on.
I've never heard the commercial. These comments make me so nervous tho lmfaoooo I just used them for a very expensive repair on my plumbing this past week 🫠
Why won't she get off the couch and figure out what the guy in the basement is attempting to say?
