So, I never really had much opinion about utilities companies in the past. after all, we kind of…read moreneed electricity, water and gas to lead our lives, right? Well, one day, somehow I noticed somewhere that PNM offers a free checkup at a home to learn how one can reduce energy use. I mean...I don't think I used much energy (well...other than embarrassingly blasting some air conditioner and heater during certain seasons), but I thought I could learn a thing or two to save me even some small amount of money. Plus, it's free...why not right? I also was wondering if it was a total scam, too...and I'm happy to report that no..it's real legit! It was pretty painless registering and signing up to have a PNM employee come to my house and audit to help see where I could make energy more efficient. I sat back after signing up...not even sure if it was a scam...and a few weeks later..it was the day! Happy to report that PNM actually communicated/confirmed the day before/of the the appointment time, too! The day of a PNM employee showed up and happy to talk to me, go through my home and found ways to help suggest/replace some light bulbs to make my electicity use more efficient! He also took the time to help give me some suggestions on where I could look into to reduce energy use as well. Best of all, he came over..helped me replace all the inefficient lightbulbs (gosh..some of those were super dirty bulbs that were there and never replaced when I purchased my home several years back then!!). At the end...the walk through..and a checkup took maybe an hour ish or so. I was pretty happy about it and wished I knew more about this service (and how I could have (and sadly missed :() gotten some rebates getting some appliances at my home even a few years back!). The guy also gave me free light bulbs (and even helped replaced them!), some electrical outlets, night lights and showerheads that make water usage slightly more efficient, too! While I don't know much whether PNM charges me too much or too little (and going solar is still something I'm contemplating), I would have to say, I was really happy with this FREE home energy usage checkup service by PNM! If you are a PNM customer and had never done one...PNM does it for free for you! So might as well get it (and save some money along the way!).

I had never suspected after the first two times that Stephan did work for me at a reasonable price…read morethat the third time he'd jack it up so high for a simple job that took one hour at most. However, Stephan sent over a worker of his this time. I assumed Stephan was coming to do the job himself like the previous two times. He never indicated that he wasn't. I mention this because I think he would've had the smarts to bring copper pipes on the truck with him. Instead, his worker apparently didn't think that copper pipes might be needed to repair a washing machine shut-off valve. My home was built in 1983, a time when most homes were plumbed with copper. And Stephan has been to my home twice already. If he wasn't bright enough to know that I had copper plumbing, he could've simply asked me. But really, I am 66 years old and have owned several homes in several states, and never has a plumber showed up without copper pipes on the truck. My job required fewer than 10 inches of a standard copper pipe and one copper elbow. Pipes are needed for plumbing. DUH! So, I had to pay double the cost for Stephan's worker to make a trip to Home Depot to buy these tiny items. The cost of the job should've been about $200, yet I was charged over $440. I would've never imagined Stephan could behave so shamelessly. I really thought he was of higher moral character. But now I see other complaints here speaking of the a similar type of issue. Very sad! I really hope he grows a conscience.

I live in an 80 year old house whose drain continually backed up. After calling many companies I…read morefound A1 Plumbing and Pumping. It turned out that my house shared a connection which was blocked to the city sewer. I and my neighbors were being forced to consider temporarily moving to a motel. A1 plumbing sent out plumbing tech Ernest, to attempt a clean out and troubleshoot. He was unable to do the clean out due to the severe obstruction and handed the job over the to the underground technical construction crew of John and Joe. They arrived with a backhoe and dug down to where the main pipe connected to the main sewer. All the pipes down there were severely corroded and plugged solid with roots. The only way to fix it was to dig it up, remove the roots (which had the density of a tree themselves) and change the style of piping so that future cleaning was feasible and more efficient. They accomplished this professionally and in time so that none of us had to leave our homes. I can't praise the whole team enough. In my humble opinion they are the best in Albuquerque for professionalism and Value.

Beware if you are seeking correct location of your utilities…read more We hired MT to locate our underground utilities to find an electrical break. They were on time and marked the utilities, estimating a break within 10 feet of their flagging. We hired a repair service to dig up the marked area to repair the break. Before they would begin they verified the marked location by MT. They disagreed with MT's flagging of our gas line, believing it was in the same area as the electric line. They re-marked the area and dug up my yard. The area where that MT marked my electric line correct, but the actual break was no where near where MT had indicated. It was incorrect by over 30 feet. The gas line that MT marked was completely wrong. If the repair contractor had dug where MT indicated we would have cut the gas line. I paid MT $270. Since their marked locations were wrong, I asked for a refund of 50% or $135. I agree they did the work, but it was wrong and frankly dangerous. MT responded they would send someone out to see the issue. I told them the trench was open that day and I could send photos. I also left their flagging so they would understand the issue. They declined to come when the utilities were exposed and said they'd come the following week. They never showed. They did not split the costs with me. The work was completed 1-25-24, in Santa Fe, NM. I have documented emails and receipts.

I reached out to 4 different solar companies but couldn't get anyone to follow thru. I finally reached #1 Plumbing.

They came in, took care of my seasonal tuning and a toilet that was not flushing. I think I've found my trusted plumbers, and that's a hard thing to do! 10/10 recommend!

The technician called ahead as promised and arrived within the timeframe he provided. He quickly reviewed our air conditioning system, thoroughly troubleshot the issue, and before long the A/C was roaring back to life.

Rather than simply replacing parts, he carefully diagnosed the problem, explained what he was doing, and efficiently restored the system to proper operation.
