Water main leakage

We hired them to come and fix a leak in the water main. The plumber came and fixed the leak, no problem. He took off the ground wore for grounding the electricity in the house and couldn't put it back. He said it was all rusty and had to be replaced. I thought that he could hAve told me before he started. We had to hire pete the electrician and spending an extra $175 for his 15min visit.

Unfortunately when we change a main valve there is no way to tell (and certainly not something a customer thinks to mention) if the ground wire is old and if there is no extra wire-we change many main valves and this does not occur often, but when it does for safety and keeping to code we have an obligation to have an electrician fix this issue-

Dishwasher, Fridge, Irrigation

Called Pete to fix some other people's work. Three small projects, but I wanted them done right rather than messing with them myself. They dispatched a boy genius who was courteous and remarkably efficient. We are really happy with the work, timeliness and cost.

Hot Water Tank

Ordered a 40 gallon hot water tank to be installed which replaced my current 65 gallon tank. Installer got to the home (which is my rental so I was not there) and decided not install the 40 gallon tank as he figured I would want a 65 gallon. I was away on holidays which I told the lady when I booked the appt so I was not able to be reached. Because of this the installer just decided on his own that he didn't want to install it and left. I phoned when I returned from holidays only to speak to a rude call taker who basically blamed me for why the tank wasn't installed. Because of the poor service I decided not to rebook. A day later I came to notice that my credit card had been charged $63 for a service call. Spend some money on your customer service Pete instead of expensive commercials.

Water tank replacement

Water tank was leaking after the city put in a new water pipe, called them at 5pm and they sent out a staff at 930pm to put up a new one. Fast and neat and reasonably priced.

replace water heater

We were away for the 2014 winter. our elderly housesitter let us know, mid march/14 the water heater crapped out. Called Pete the Plumber, explained my situation, the scheduled a next day appt and gave me a fixed price, took my credit card info. Checked with the housesitter, she was very satisfied with the punctuality, cleanliness, and politeness of the tech. Upon returning home I'm very happy with the work done, and I'm fairly critical having retired from the trades. Glad I used Pete, would use them again and recommend them to friends.

Update Plumbing in a 84 year old home

I recently purchased a home where I needed to upgrade my plumbing and electrical. I decided to go with Pete the Plumber due to the size of the company in knowing that they would be around if something were to go wrong. I had my hot water tank replaced, as well as my humidifier. two sinks were re-located, a tub replaced...pretty much a complete overhaul of the main upper floor. There were some issues with the original plumbrt they sent to do the rough-in, but I found that they were quick to remedy the problem by sending me one of their best guys to finish off the job, and in the end I am very happy with the end result. I will still hire them to complete my basement when the time is right.
