My upstairs unit was not cooling. I called late afternoon and the next day, Anthony showed up on time and diagnosed the problem within minutes. I was at work so he was able to explain the problem and solution to my 13 y/o son and mother in law. Anthony also called me and debrief me on what occurred and the fix he implemented. Absolutely world class service start to finish. I'm glad we had Encore installed our HVAC system for our two story house. They take ownership and ensure their members are well taken care of beyond install. Bravo! read more

I wanted to take a moment to share some feedback regarding my recent experience with Encore, as I've had several projects completed by Encore Plumbing in the past--including installing a tankless water heater and unclogging drains. I've always appreciated the quality of work, which is why I chose Encore again for my latest project involving the installation of two faucets and unclogging two slow sinks. I submitted pictures and requested a quote through Yelp, and received a firm price, which was reassuring. I also made it clear I was in no rush and could wait until after Memorial Day, as I understand the holiday can be more expensive. Although I had other quotes to consider, I opted to continue with Encore based on our past positive work. I did add a request to remove and install a toilet to the project list as well. The plumber who came out did excellent work--handled everything required, cleaned up thoroughly, and I'm very happy with the end result on that front. However, I was disappointed by the change in pricing. Upon arrival and after work began, a valve started leaking, and additional charges were introduced for replacing the valves--something that, based on the pictures provided, other companies had already flagged as necessary. The quote for the extra work and the toilet installation ended up adding nearly $1,000 to the bill. While I were able to negotiate the price down, it still felt like I was being charged over $300 an hour for labor, and an extra $650 for something that could have been anticipated ahead of time. The sudden price change was frustrating, especially since at that point, I felt locked in--the plumber was already there, and now I had a leak in the line, making it difficult to bring in another company to resolve the new issue. Additionally, I was encouraged multiple times to sign up for a yearly service plan to receive a 15% discount. While I understand the value of ongoing service agreements, this approach didn't sit well with me, particularly since other plumbers and service providers in other Calif areas I've worked with have offered the first year of their service plan for free, allowing me to evaluate the benefits before committing. read more

Encore has always gone above and beyond. They are a true stand out when it comes to supporting customers! My business ended up losing its air conditioning during the hottest part of this March. All of the temperatures this year have been record breaking. They were onsite the next day, and ensured that there was little down time for the air conditioning. They quickly diagnosed the issues, and got the parts needed on order before leaving. They ensured that this was as seamless and smooth a process for any business to work through. From their technicians, like Jacob to their office support, like Breanna, this was the best experience with any HVAC company I've ever used. I don't wrote many reviews, but this is one company that deserves all the recognition for their outstanding service and support! read more

Anthony and Raven were absolute professionals, thorough, informative, and most importantly, responsive. We replaced and upgraded our entire central ac/duct-work with Encore and for an endeavor that can be stress-inducing, they walked us through the process, how the systems work, explained the different options and made legitimate recommendations without being pushy or just trying to land a sale. The work was quick and the results extremely comfortable. HIGHLY recommend Encore, Anthony, Raven, and their crew for your needs! read more

Super expensive. A "voltage enhancement device" is not a standard or recognized HVAC part; it is typically an inflated marketing or scam term used by dishonest technicians to overcharge for a basic run/start capacitor or a hard start kit. 469$ is what I got charged today for $10-$45 part. Should have cost me $250-$300 not $469 read more

I had a really great experience with Encore Plumbing & Air. When they first came out to give me a quote and perform maintenance on my AC system, they were extremely thorough. They took photos of everything and walked me through the issues they found so I could clearly see what was going on. I already knew my system was old, but I had no idea it was freezing up and actually causing water damage. They also showed me that some parts had been installed incorrectly by a previous installer, which explained a lot of the problems I had been having. My HVAC technicians, Ronny and Michael, removed my 34 year old furnace, FAU, and duct system, and installed a whole new system to include a new thermostat, outside condenser unit, and a QuietCool whole house fan. Considering how old my system was, it was a big job, but they handled everything professionally and made the whole process easy. Before starting the work, they asked me what had been discussed with the person who originally gave me the quote to make sure everyone was on the same page. I really appreciated that level of communication. They also asked for my opinion before moving forward with different parts of the installation. Aza, the plumber, installed the HALO 5 whole-home water filtration system. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and made sure everything was installed properly. He even went as far as to show me how the pipes where set up and in the event of a unforeseen issue how to shut the water off and use the bypass to keep water flowing in the house. When the job was finished, the team walked me through the new systems and showed me how everything works. That extra time meant a lot because it helped me understand how to use everything correctly. The entire crew was respectful of my home, worked hard, and left everything clean. The whole process was well beyond my expectations. If you need HVAC replacement, air conditioning work, or plumbing in the Murrieta area, I would definitely recommend Encore Plumbing & Air. read more

Exceptional HVAC Experience -- True Family-Owned Care from Ray, Ronny, and Michael! I had my entire HVAC system replaced by Encore Plumbing, Heating & Air, and I can honestly say the experience was flawless from start to finish. What makes Encore stand out is that they're a family-owned company, and it truly shows in the way they treat their customers -- with respect, care, and attention to detail you just don't get from the big-box contractors. Ray, the project manager, was outstanding. He took his time explaining every step of the process, helped me choose the right system for my home, and answered all of my questions with patience and precision. Ray's communication was clear, consistent, and incredibly detailed -- I never felt left in the dark. You could tell he takes real pride in what he does. When it came time for installation, Ronny and Michael were absolutely phenomenal. These guys are skilled, professional, and take their work seriously. They showed up on time, worked cleanly and efficiently, and treated my home like it was their own. The install looks clean, runs perfectly, and it's obvious they take great pride in their craftsmanship. Encore delivered exactly what they promised -- quality work, honest communication, and top-tier service backed by family values. If you're looking for a company that still believes in doing things the right way, ask for Ray, Ronny, and Michael. This team represents everything great about working with a local, family-run business. The Paterson family read more

They are VERY EXPENSIVE!!!!!! I will never recommend this company to anyone. This company have no heart. They come and see that you need water to fix the issue he charged us over $1600 for just under 2 hours or work. We ask home to break it down why charger this much he told us he can't break it down. However at that time we need water we have to let him fix it. Stupid we should have go for second opinion. Live and learn for next time. read more

The dispatcher was very responsive, and the service quality and value thus far has been fantastic. They could not have made a finer first impression. We were in a bind; a sewage drain burst outside our garage walkway. and we needed someone fast. When I called, I asked them to send someone quickly, and asked if they could service QuietCool Whole House Fan systems since our membership HVAC said I would have to work with the installer. Within not much more than an hour two of the bright colored vans arrived. While Matt was looking into our sewer blockage, their Air tech Ronnie explained we had a misconception about the QuiteCool system. Because it was a model home, we did not get good records, so he took photos to send to me and kindly explained we did not have a problem. Out front, I met someone talking with Matt and later found out it was one of the family founders who had driven over a camera so Matt could do a full scan down to the street to make sure we did not have a bigger issue. Matt was also helpful in reviewing the downstairs toilet we want to replace. I was quite surprised they did not charge more. I have scheduled an HVAC tune-up and plan to keep working with them. They certainly have my applause on their first performance! read more

I have used Encore Plumbing & Air multiple times (for a variety of services) in the last few years and I am always satisfied with the service, products and the technicians who come into my home. I just had my heater/air conditioner bi-annual maintenance performed by Jake. As always, he is friendly, informative about the service and I feel I am always getting quality from trustworthy staff. I highly recommend Encore Plumbing & Air. Thank you Jake! read more

EXPENSIVE. DO NOT sign blank screen or blank page. Get other bids, check reviews, license, bonding, insurance. Be careful. Ok, I was going to give you the neutral review above based on our long relationship, Agree, $1,500 is a reasonable price for excavation & repair. But you are skewing the facts. Your service & products have not always been acceptable, but we have always worked out the details. Sometimes one has to own up. About 2.5 days into a 3 day job, the excavation was complete, & the solitary leak was evident. Encore wanted another $900 for just the one repair for the one leak. The tech & I had multiple PREVIOUS discussions during the 3 day period that the total, excavation AND repair, was a total $1,500. I was extremely distressed at this point, & surmised it was no accident that the whole project would be stalled & I would need to find housing elsewhere. I am a senior & live alone. This was devastating. To move things along I suggested we go to small claims. Your tech wanted to complete the job, which he did until it was totally dark. Since he could not see in the dark, so the yard is a mess & I have the expense & labor of not only cleaning up, but also restoration of the destroyed landscaping. read more

I received a text from Dylan Pierce indicating he was on his way to my house and he arrived on time to fix my toilet. Dylan accessed the work to be done and the possible obstacles he may run into.

Dylan was very professional and thorough and I highly recommend Encore Plumbing & Air. 5+ stars! read more

I contacted Encore Plumbing because my I let my propane run dry and couldn't relight the pilot light. Encore Plumbing quoted me $725-$900.

We initially called Encore for a cold water line re-route due to a slab leak and ended up repiping the whole house. From the moment they started until they were finished, every single person we came into contact with was amazing! Derek, Angelo and Breanna were incredible to work with! The repipe team covered everything, taped off rooms, cleaned up and even hosed off the driveway before leaving. Barely a speck of dust anywhere! Amazing team to work with! Would highly recommend them! Even after getting 2 other bids we could tell that Encore knew what they were doing, the cost was in line with others but the customer service and knowledge were over the top! read more

This company was excellent. I needed my kitchen drained unclogged and they did the job. They replied within 15 min of me posting my inquiry and then had a plumber scheduled to come out within two hours. He texted and called me when he got to my gate and he was on time. The price for the job was extremely fair and he was in and out of my house within 45 minutes. Great value, communication and professionalism from this company. I highly recommend. read more

We have had it with Encore Plumbing Heating And Air Conditioning Murrieta. We saw their ad in one of the magazines in the mail for a $49 AC tune up. I don't think the tech did anything for us except take some stuff apart, take pictures and try a hard sales pitch. Our system is not that old so we didn't take the "offer". He continued to push for other things that he was recommending. At this point we just wanted him gone. He said he needed to put some stuff back together and he would go. He then proceeded to get his manager on the phone and the manager was pushing for us to get the work done. We finally got the tech to leave. Three weeks later, our AC stopped cooling. Not sure if it was just a coincidence, but it sure felt oddly suspicious. We contacted a company that was highly recommended to come check everything out and they were able to fix the problem without any issues or up sales. They did not see any problems with our system that Encore was pushing for. I started getting text messages from Encore two weeks ago saying that we needed to have our system checked and followed the instructions to stop receiving messages. Few days later they sent another message from another number for the same thing. Followed the instructions and to stop receiving messages again. Received a third message and let them know that if they don't stop sending messages, I was going to share this experience with you. Guess what?! Yep, another message this morning without their name. I called and found out that it was Encore again. Obviously they are not getting the message so I hope reading this message will help you not have the same experience as we did. read more

Excellent service from start to finish. We decided it was time to replace our entire heating and air conditioning system. The system was 20 years old and I was fairly certain the AC wouldn't make it through summer and the furnace was rusting and probably had another year left in it. So, we bit the bullet and pulled the trigger on it. The tech that came out to check the system, Frank, was very thorough and professional in checking the old system and letting me know all the details. Ray, the project manager, was friendly and incredibly helpful and explained all the options and add-ons that they offered in a no pressure approach. Ronald and Mikey installed the system and were also friendly, informative, and professional. I still can't believe they were able to take out the old system, and install a new one, and whole house fan in 1 day. Very impressed and happy that we decided to trust Encore with this project. read more

Mark this as a six stars instead! I found this business on Yelp by requesting a quote. A few businesses were suggested based on the information provided in the quote request form. I researched the suggested companies by reading other clients reviews and decided to give Encore Pluming a go. My pick was the right choice! Why you ask? Here we go: - great communication from start to finish - punctual - professional and knowledgeable (answered all my questions before I agreed to the services) - reliable - clean and professional finish - thanks to great value, I requested extra work to be done - the job was successfully completed and double checked We are very satisfied with the services and highly recommend this business. read more

We were provided great service. We had a leave in our bathtub and We requested an appointment via Yelp and they responded within 10 and were able to provide us with an appointment the next day between 8-9am. Our technician was Steve and he arrived at exactly 8am and provided us a quote. He was amazing enough to wait for my husband to go and purchase the faucet that needed to be replaced. I love that they send you a text message confirming your appointment and then on the day of the appointment they text you providing you a picture of the technician who will be completing the service call. With all the uncertainty it's great that they provide you with such service so you know exactly who you are opening the door too. Amazing and prompt service. We would defining recommend and would use them again. read more

This was my first call and choice when I initially started my internet search. I called after hours and was given the choice for an immediate response which would be extra or wait until 0800 the next morning. My issue wasn't that severe and I opted to wait until the next morning. My AC service technician Nelse C. was absolutely amazing and very knowledgeable. He offered solutions and explained and showed me the defective systems. I also opted for the maintenance package for future calls that would cover plumbing or heating issues in addition to AC units. Overall I would recommend them and the cost was reasonable. Thanks again for the help read more

Came on time, found the problem, and fixed it fast. Good pricing, too. I would recommend them.

Steve Elwart was extremely knowledgeable and informed me of the multiple ways the plumbing in our bathroom could be repaired. Unfortunately for me he had to cut a hole in our wall for better access to do the repair. He also recommend someone for the drywall which was helpful and to my surprise he was very neat and clean. When I went upstairs to see the his finished work. He had cleaned up and the debris from the drywall he cut including the dust from a near by table. I also decided to purchase the loyalty package because it will eventually pay for its self. read more

Our AC system was was not cooling, and after trouble-shooting myself I knew it was not something I could handle myself. The entire system needed to be replaced as the compressor was shot, the contacter was bad, the safety fuse box was old and questionable. Additionally, the system was oversized for our house, likely contributing to the burnout. We needed an entire system replacement. I had a few quotes written up. While Encore was not the cheapest, they were the most responsive, professional, knowledgeable and thorough. They were also able to get us on the schedule faster than any other service. The install was quick and clean, there was a snag with the electrical in the attic that was solved immediately, and our new smaller system is excellent and efficient. I will absolutely use Encore again and will recommend them to others. read more

Prices for service sometimes seem high and seem unreasonable. Over $800 for a small tin can that goes on your air conditioner? Over $150 to install a switch that costs less than $15 at a local store? However, they did one job at a fixed rate that took two workmen several hours to do and they found a problem that that was not readily apparent. In another case, their workman found a leak which I doubt anyone else could have found. So, perhaps it all evened out? They do have a monthly service that gives members a priority for their call. read more
