    We called Prodigy for a backed up drain. Trent came first and said they would run a camera first to determine the issue, but he was waiting for his boss to come. His boss arrived, asked a few questions, and said that we needed to descale our sewer line for $4500 or replace the whole sewer line for $7500. I told him that I had no idea what these things cost, so I would call around to a couple of plumbers to find out if this pricing is about right for this task. After calling around, both plumbers I talked to asked if he had snaked the drain and/or run a camera to determine if descaling was what we needed. I went back out to talk with the boss, who told me that he didn't snake it because he has 30 or 40 years of experience and he knows that's what we need. When I questioned him again about the need to clear the line and determine what was needed first, he seemed to get agitated. We couldn't use any plumbing, so I was desperate and asked them to snake the line and then we would figure out what we wanted to do next. He made it clear that he didn't agree with me. He said we were going to continue having problems because descaling was what we needed. I said we weren't ready to do that, and requested that they clear the line. They came in and spent 4 minutes (max) snaking the drain, told me the line was cleared, and got on their way. A simple Google search shows that snaking a drain takes 15-45 minutes. The effort here was abysmal. A few hours later, we, again, had a sewage back up. Obviously not trusting the company that diagnoses based on experience instead of examination and spends no more than 4 minutes to snake a drain, I had a different company come out the next day. They spent 20-30 minutes clearing the whole sewer line and ran a camera through to determine the issue. THE INSPECTION SHOWED NO NEED FOR DESCALING. DOING SO WOULD HAVE BEEN A COMPLETE WASTE OF MONEY. They found no mineral deposits, roots nor corrosion build up. The company cleared the drain. There are a few spots with a positive slope and replacing those sections (or the whole line) is recommended. Had we gone with Prodigy, we would have had an expensive line descaled unnecessarily, and we still would have had to deal with the positive slope issue. I've had a good experience with prodigy in the past, but this lack of professionalism and integrity was shocking. I will not take the risk of calling this company again.

    Another great experience with the Prodigy Plumbing team. Ariel is a great communicator and kept me well informed. James and Trent communicated well and provided the quote. Field Manager Carlos stopped by a few times to make sure that the work was progressing well and that we were satisfied. The field service team was great to work with and kept us informed of progress. Marcos, Fred, Boii and Victor worked hard and efficiently to ensure that the plumbing was repaired correctly to last for years. They cleaned the areas to look like they were never there. Very satisfied with the end result and constant communication. I will use Prodigy again.

    See all

I called several companies to assess the issue and one company told me I needed to re-plumb the entire house. After I deduced that it was a water heater issue, I started to get ridiculous quotes from some companies. I came across All Pro Water Heaters and was impressed by their reviews. I immediately wanted them to be the people to replace my water heater. I was able to reach Parker on Yelp and he gave me a reasonable quote. He also asked me to take pictures of the current water heater so he knows what they're working with. By looking at my pictures he pointed out some of the things that they might need for the installation so there was full transparency. I informed him that we think it is just the water heater that needs to be replaced but want someone to confirm there isn't anything else wrong and he assured that's something they'll verify. He was able to send someone the same day. The technician, Danny, informed me of his arrival time when he was 30 minutes away. When Danny was done with the water heater replacement, he provided necessary information to my tenant, then he called me to brief me on the completion of the install. My tenant complimented Danny for his professionalism and said he wants to use this company for any future needs. I was thoroughly satisfied with Parker and Danny. They were extremely communicative, professional, and quick to resolve the issue. I was extremely stressed from my tenant not having hot water and All Pro's honesty and ethical approach alleviated my concerns. I will be recommending All Pro to people I know!

The Navien tankless combi- boiler water heater is perfect for our needs. It is a more dependable solution, and more cost-effective in the long run too.

Having someone honest who is willing to tell you all your options (like fixing the broken parts versus installing a new water heater), and THEN is willing to give you the exact pricing for those options is hard to find now-a-days. I truly recommend this man; he does a one man operation, works hard, and gets the job done like he said he would; I can't tell you how many times handymen/contractors have said to me "I'll let you know if something comes up and I can't make it" and then only show up if they please; instead he was punctual and today, I was able to take the hotest shower I've had in my new home thus far. He even worked with my work schedule so I could come home to hot water after I told him I work 10-11 hours a day 5 days a week and was going to be without hot water until my next day off . Thank you SO much Wade you are a blessing!!!!!! Also my water heater wasn't even up to code (I had no idea) and he was kind enough to get it all safe and up to code when he installed the new one!

I was glad to see that Tim arrived exactly when he stated he would, and came in with all the tools he needed, plus more. As well as took his time to full diagnose the issue. We came to the agreement that the water heater needed to be replaced due to multiple factors. He didn't try to upsell me on unnecessary things and I was the one that requested and recommended extra work that needed to be done such as valve replacement and vent inspection. Tim went above and beyond with installing new straps, the valve, water heater, reseated the ducting properly, as well as as put in a much needed gas pipe to reduce any dirt or debris from the gas line into the water heater burner. It took him a bit longer than expected, but he thoroughly tested the water heater, burner, and hot water. I was very impressed by his work and how clean the installation was. I think for the experience, expertise, and quality of Tim's work its was an excellent value. We even upgraded to a larger tank for not much more which the family was very happy about. We have also signed up for the yearly maintenance. I highly recommend Tim the Water heater guy, as he does a great job for a great value.

My message to him was sent out to several companies which I didn't love but wanted to wait for Jacob's reply. He was straightforward on what he thought might be the issue and gave me a price- I did question the price only because snaking varies like crazy (and a bunch of other plumbing CO's messaged me). He asked to call just to tell me that yep- it does vary and the reasons you can get what you pay for. I've been burned by plumbing in the past so I agreed to have him over and he came in 25 min! After explaining the drain issue with my upper bath/shower and me snaking it myself with cheap snakes, he informed me I was snaking the wrong drain. Instructed me and guided me on how to clear my own drain! I cleared my drain! With his instruction and he didn't charge me!! I of course still paid 1/3 of the quote as it's only fair he came here and helped me where I think anyone else would have cleared it, charged the full amount and probably tried to sell me something I didn't need. Jacob is a really good human, an honest human and in this day/age that's hard to find. I will definitely use him for anything in the future including remodel or anything bath/pipe/kitchen related; he is kind, super knowledgeable and generally wants people to be happy with his work. Very easy going guy. I have not been this impressed with someone in a long time. Highly recommend. 10 stars!!!
