    Fixed shower cartridge by owner

    Customer service and timeliness are exceptional. I really like how I can text reminders of my appointment and how far the plumber is. The courtesy call is always a plus. The plumber checked on site of the issue which I was already aware of the issue of replacing the shower cartridge since the shower head was continually leaking even after the handle was on on the shut off. Cost was $375 which I get there is labor involved but 30-60 mins + part ($35-80 part) to replace. The cost is above average. If you need something quickly done and don't might paying slightly more for them then they can definitely help. We did ask if we can do it ourselves, and he said yes which I like the honesty. We ended up doing it myself to save on cost since I had the tools and went to Home Depot to buy the cartridge.

    5-star plumber! This should be great! The first time OK. He fixed a buried PVC line at a slightly high price. But if they're reliable, it might be worth it, right? The second time was very bad. The tech quoted $1550 for a job that takes well under 4 hours with $200 in parts, and it was a sketchy fix. No go. But no bad review because it could be a fluke, right? Third time? Bad again. So it wasn't a fluke. Tech came for repair of the first job but apparently didn't know it was warranty service. He talked about replacing galvanized pipe with copper. I said it sounded expensive because PVC was really the problem. I suggested he talk to his boss because he the one who was paying for the warranty repair. He went blank, said OK, and when I came back, he and his assistant had left without saying a word. To their credit, Western Rooter promptly sent another tech, and he's now replacing 16 inches of PVC as warranty service (picture). So, I had thought one bad experience after a good one was a fluke. But now I can't ignore two bad experiences in a row. You have to stay on your toes. Two stars because they did send another tech to fix the problem. One star otherwise.

    Rotted Gas Line,

    I was referred by my HVAC contractor to call Western Rooter, as the supply line that feeds my pool heater, fire pit, and built-in gas grill developed a gas leak. The Gas Company came out, smelled the gas leak, shut off that supply line, and tagged it The tech, Richie Ortiz, came and I explained the situation. With his experience and knowledge, he was able to identify the rotted gas line and able to properly repair the leak. Being in the service industry, the people who work and represent the company either make or break it. Richie is polite, courteous, and most importantly, knowledgeable. He explained in detail what he needed to do and the cost, taking into account that we wanted a good repair at the least cost. Western Rooter is lucky to have such a great representative on their team.

    I have nothing but great things to say about QP Plumbing! Oscar is very responsive, professional,…read moreeasy to work with, and an overall stand up guy with a high level of integrity. Last year we had a water heater installed by QP Plumbing. There was one part of the installation that was overlooked and caused us some issues. When I told Oscar, he took complete accountability and offered to give us monetary compensation. I told him if he could just provide us with a credit on future service that would be great. Fast forward to present day, we had leak with one of our pipes. Oscar was able to come immediately to diagnose the issue and got his crew here the next day to get the issue resolved. Oscar did in fact give me the credit we had discussed over a year ago which I appreciated. I certainly plan to use QP Plumbing for any of my plumbing needs moving forward and I would highly recommend them.

    Your home's plumbing is an "out of sight, out of mind" thing. If you don't have to think about it,…read morethen it's doing its job correctly. My parents-in-law had a toilet that wasn't draining properly, a semi-emergency since it's the only toilet in their small condo. It was already late in the day, but I found QP Plumbing and messaged them and they were able to have a plumber out early the next morning. Leo was the plumber who visited and he did a lot of troubleshooting: first with a plunger, then an auger, then removing the toilet to inspect the trap and the drain pipe. In the end, we determined that the toilet should be replaced because of its age, and Leo took care of buying a new toilet, installing it, and hauling the old one away. He recommended a toilet that's elongated and slightly higher, which was a great option for our elderly parents with reduced mobility. Leo also replaced the wax ring and flange bolts and caulked the new toilet well. He took the time to do the job right, and the price was quite reasonable. And the new toilet is a huge improvement over the old one. Thanks QP for the quality work and for giving our parents one less thing to have to worry about!

    Sky was an outstanding technician sent by All City. He arrived quickly, diagnosed the issue…read moreefficiently, and was honest throughout the entire process. I really appreciated that he gave me several options to consider instead of pressuring me into one solution. What impressed me most was how clearly he explained everything. Since I know very little about how HVAC systems work, he broke it down in a way that was easy to understand--almost like he was teaching an elementary school student, but in the best way possible. He was patient, knowledgeable, and incredibly skilled. Thank you, All City, for sending someone with Sky's expertise and valueto my home. He's a true asset to your team, and I highly recommend both him and All City!

    We hired this company to repair a water leak and replace our water heater. While the leak itself…read morewas eventually fixed and the job did ultimately pass every city inspection, the process took about a month longer than it should have and cost us real time, stress, and lost work -- issues we feel other homeowners should know about before hiring. Work began July 5th with tank removal and drywall demo by Collen S. and his partner. The next day, they repaired the leak by replacing about 6 feet of PEX line, and a subcontractor patched the drywall. About 20 minutes after the patch was done, Collen S. told us the new water heater install was good to go. We specifically asked whether a permit was needed -- for both the leak repair and the water heater install -- and Collen S. and his partner told us twice that day that it wasn't. We requested one anyway. That turned out to matter a great deal. On July 14th, Collen S. gave us only about 30 minutes' notice before the inspector arrived, even though we had asked him to give us a day in advance so we could request time off work to be present. The inspector arrived anyway, and when we asked directly, he confirmed that both the water heater installation and the PEX line replacement had been done without the required permits -- meaning both jobs were effectively illegal until they could be properly permitted and inspected. This flatly contradicted what Collen S. and his partner had told us twice on-site. The next day, we called the company's manager, Steve, and raised three concerns: the contradictory permit information, the last-minute inspection notice, and our request for a different crew going forward. On July 21st, a new tech, Michael, introduced himself, and the City of Eastvale inspected the drywall repair. The city did not approve it and required the wall reopened for a mold check. Michael returned that same day to reopen it. On July 27th, the city inspected inside the wall, confirmed no mold, and approved the space to be patched and the water heater reinstalled. Drywall repatching happened August 3rd, and the final inspection closed everything out August 6th -- roughly a month after the leak repair began. On top of the permit issues, we were also pressured more than once to buy add-on services unrelated to our leak. Collen S. showed us "dirty" pipes at least twice in what felt less like genuine advice and more like an attempt to play on our emotions to drive a commission-based sale of a whole-house filtration system. He also pushed a full home re-pipe on separate occasions -- again, unrelated to what we'd actually called about. To be fair, the leak repair itself was solid, the city inspectors were thorough, and the job ultimately passed every inspection with no mold found. But getting there cost us two additional days off work -- one for the re-inspection that was only necessary because permits weren't pulled correctly from the start, and one for the wall re-closing after the unapproved drywall job had to be reopened -- plus significant back-and-forth to sort out miscommunication that should never have happened. We're hopeful the company will work with us to make this right, since the repairs themselves held up -- it was everything around them that fell short. A crew not knowing (or misrepresenting) basic permit requirements, and using emotional pressure tactics to upsell unrelated services, are things we don't think any customer should have to tolerate -- and we'd encourage this company to address both with its technicians directly. Because of the permit miscommunication that left our repairs technically illegal for over a week, the last-minute inspection scheduling, the repeated upselling pressure, and the extra days off work it all cost us, we cannot recommend this company.

After every tenant turnover, he is the first person I call because I know the job will be done properly, on time, and at a fair price. He repaired a ceiling in my own unit after a water leak caused by the previous owner and completed the entire repair in a single day. He also patched numerous holes left behind by a former tenant, repaired damaged cabinets and doors, installed new windows, laid waterproof flooring, mounted a ceiling fan, and completed several interior painting projects. Every project has turned out great, and the quality of his work has held up well. His pricing is very reasonable, especially considering the quality of his work. He also researches materials to help us get the best value. Small touches, like leaving behind the extra paint after completing a painting job, have been incredibly helpful for future turnovers. Nick communicates clearly throughout the project and works efficiently without sacrificing quality. During renovations, we trust him enough to give him keys directly to our units without supervision, so he has access to the property whenever work needs to be done. I highly recommend Nick to handle everything from repairs and painting to flooring, windows, and general property maintenance. His workmanship, fair pricing, and consistency have made him an invaluable resource for my complex.
