Mike and his son were extremely responsive, communicative, professional, and honest throughout the entire process. They showed up exactly on time, worked quickly and efficiently, and the quality of their work was top notch. It's clear they take pride in what they do and genuinely care about treating customers fairly. Their pricing was honest and reasonable, with no pressure or upselling. I really appreciated working with a father and son business that values integrity, reliability, and craftsmanship. I would confidently recommend Mike Thing Pump Service to anyone needing well or pump service, and they will absolutely be the first call I make the next time I need anything related to my well system.

When…read moreI logged into their appointment system it seems they decided to reschedule me without notifying me in any manner. The next day they were scheduled same thing. I contacted the office after that and was yet again rescheduled. This time I received a voicemail telling me they'd be out and again no show. This time no appointment change on their system, no call. It's now been a 5 days since the no show and they still haven't contacted me. Needless to say they are in breech of contract and thus won't be doing any work for me. I'm actually really glad they're so unreliable with such horrible customer service because the company I spoke to 4 days ago after their last no show came today and did the job for HALF the price So Cal Well quoted, literally half the price. Call them if you want but they aren't reliable or affordable.

We discussed all of the options. They were very knowledgeable and took the time to explain the details of what they recommended. I gave them the green light and they started the job within a few days and finished when they said they would. The well works better now than it has in the 20 years since I had it installed. They communicated extremely well and showed up when they said they would, completed the work we agreed upon and left my property in immaculate condition. I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs their well reconfigured or repaired.

From the office staff to the guys in the field, I can't recommend them more highly.

I cannot thank Paul Dierkop and his brother Shannon enough for their competence and honesty. Paul's…read moreexperience determining if the location we had selected for the well had potential was priceless. Having just experienced a disastrous 45K dollar 1,600 foot deep dry well by another driller who claimed there is always water eventually, was clearly a concern. There are no guarantees when drilling a well. Using both electromagnetic VFL soundings and a seasoned local water witcher produced a number of possible locations. Paul assessed the locations and shared his opinion that we followed. At 550 feet we hit 20 gpm of quality water. Not only did Paul honor his contract to the letter, the drilling site was meticulously maintained and completely cleaned when he was finished. Shannon came in behind to set the pump system up using the most current technology and equipment available. He cleaned the well and pump multiple times and was producing perfect water samples for testing in no time. Honestly, drilling a well is expensive and a bit scary. This is hands down the team you want for drilling and setting up your well.

I highly regret doing so, not only were they over priced, They have a horrible attitude, the worst customer service. They have an aggressive demeanor and try to make you feel like they are doing you a favor. They got physically aggressive, had to call the cops. They did not finish the job, even though I paid for it. Now trying to get another contractor to finish. Customers beware of these guys, they are rude, they are sloppy workers and do not understand what customer service is about. 30 years in business but not one internet review ? Shannon Dierkop is a thief that has a horrible reputation in San Diego with not paying employees and being violent bully and aggressive, he works with no contracting license and Paul Dierkop his brother will back up his attitude and will not make the job right with the clients.
