Honestly the work is good...as it should be from a master plumber…read more The issue I have is the issue I've had with literally every plumber ever. They've got you over a barrel when they come out and start throwing parts. This was an install of a drop in kitchen sink and faucet. He told me his hourly rate was 135 bucks. I was expecting to spend about 400 maybe 500. The final bill was 850. I feel I was overcharged on both the parts and labor. He charged me starting 45 min before he got there but still included a "truck charge." The removal and replace of the sink took 2 hours. To me the "clock" starts on the labor at the agreed upon arrival time. When I'm getting charged 439(!) bucks for parts on top of the sink and faucet itself, that extra charge for labor is quite unwelcome. I mean the sink and faucet itself that were "nice" were like 500 bucks. So almost that again just in parts. ‍ His answer in general as I look at these reviews is that he buys his parts from a plumber supply not Home Depot etc. I would have to research each individual part to see if its price point is "fair". A perusal of solid brass fittings and pvc p traps on the Lowe's site shows the price I paid was about doubled. He acted quite insulted that I wouldn't know just how much better his parts were and implied they were all but unavailable at big box stores. literally doubling what I expected to pay was quite a shock to say the least. It is what it is. If I was able to do it myself, I would've. Live and learn Learn a trade kids lol

Braulio has helped me twice in ways that speak volumes about the integrity of his business…read more The first call was about low water pressure. He came out, spent a few minutes assessing, and told me straight up that low pressure is endemic to our neighborhood--no plumbing work can or should be done. Meanwhile, some of my neighbors had been sold replacement filters and various "fixes" by other plumbers for the same unfixable problem. The second time, we lost hot water. He responded to my call within minutes and asked me to text photos of the water heater. He diagnosed it via text, told me the fix, and I handled it myself. Braulio didn't make a dime on either call, but he's earned his spot as my go-to plumber. Phenomenal service.

Rooterman has changed over the years and, unfortunately, not in a good way. My first review of them…read morewas in 2015 so that tells you that I have been a customer for a very long time. The focus of this review is the water heater that they installed on 1/26/23. As you can see from my other reviews, the water heater that was installed before that one was in 2016. 7 years is a reasonable amount of time for a water heater to last. The problem is that the anode rod is failing in this current one. Edie came out and drained it on June 29th. We are not currently living there. In fact, the house is for sale. The problem was the hot water was turning yellow. He said to run the hot water, especially in the tub upstairs once a week, which we have been doing despite living across town now. Guess what? The hot water is yellow in tint again. Here's the rub. At the top of my receipt it says 50 gallon water heater, 6 year essential warranty. Fast forward to yesterday. Garrett comes out and notes the yellowish tint in the hot water. So, he says he can maybe replace the anode rod for about $500. He also says I can try calling AO Smith to see if they will send a new water heater and they will install it for about 2K. So, this is like going to a mechanic and a part fails and they say, why don't you call the company and see if they will send you a new part? I am pretty sure that is not a thing. By the way, he tried to get the anode rod out and it is welded solid in there. I told him we would give a credit to a potential buyer but after talking to my husband I realize that is not a good approach. It is already a brutal market to try to sell a home. So, I am faced with having to replace it although I have a document that says at the top 6 year essential warranty. That makes no sense. I will have to bid it out and Rooterman will not be on the list. They replaced the heater in 2016 and then again in 2023. I had no qualms in having them install it in 2023 because they had my complete trust. This is no longer the case. I no longer recommend Rooterman Plumbing. I gave them 2 stars because they used to do a good and honest job for me. I no longer feel that this is the case.

Altruistic Heating and Cooling exceeded our expectations during a stressful time…read more When the AC in a rental unit I manage went out during one of the hottest times of the year, I had to act quickly. After discovering that our usual AC guy was unavailable, I gathered estimates from several companies. The prices were shockingly high, so I created a detailed spreadsheet comparing different systems, pricing, discounts, rebates, and warranties. Out of all the companies, Altruistic Heating and Cooling stood out by offering the best price--thousands less than the others. They also went above and beyond by providing a portable AC unit to keep the tenants comfortable until the installation, which was a huge relief. While some companies tried to pressure me with last-minute offers and discounts, Altruistic's straightforward approach and reasonable pricing made the decision easy. They even included a free bonus service of two maintenance calls per year for four years. The installation went smoothly, and although I had to follow up to ensure the job was fully completed, Altruistic responded quickly and finished everything as promised. They had left a note in the final invoice saying, "We need to return some time (date removed) to install the flue pipe." As a property manager, I expect to handle follow-ups, so this wasn't a major issue for me. But I followed up with them to get this done before we made the payment. Although I felt Altruistic had been very trustworthy, I know people who have been burned by other companies after paying in full before the job was completed, so I wanted to make sure it was completely done. Daniel from the office contacted me, and they ensured everything was finished before I made the final payment. Overall, I'm very satisfied with Altruistic Heating and Cooling. They provided excellent service, great value, quality workmanship and their customer service was top-notch. I highly recommend them to anyone needing AC services. Follow-up: months later when winter weather arrived and the heat wasn't coming on, I called them in the evening expecting to hear back the next morning. They called me right away that evening and went out to the property first thing the next morning and fix the problem with no charge. I love it when companies do what they say they'll do and warranty their work.

Worst company you could possibly call. I would strongly recommend staying away from this company…read more They came to my house to fix an issue with my AC, and less than two months later, I was having the exact same problem. They came back out and supposedly fixed it. During that visit, they also dumped what looked like a whole bucket of rusty water directly into the middle of my driveway, leaving a large stain. While the technician was cleaning the outside AC unit, she apparently pinched some of the wiring when she put everything back together. A couple of hours later, the AC stopped working completely. I called the company, and she came back out. Somehow, she "missed" the wiring issue that she had caused and told me I needed a new fan motor that was going to cost me $1,200. I called the owner/boss and explained what happened. They refused to take responsibility for the problem and told me I would have to pay for the repair. I called another AC company the following morning. The technician immediately found the problem: the wiring had been pinched. He fixed it for about $50 in actual repair work, plus a $175 emergency service fee. So instead of the $1,200 repair I was told I needed, the actual problem was something that took very little to fix. Unfortunately, that's not even the worst part. During the first visit, the technician asked if I wanted her to give my phone number to another company they work with because I needed some moldy drywall taken care of. I said yes. That company never called me, and I never contacted them. Despite that, they showed up at my house while I was out of town. There was a nurse at my house caring for my daughter, who has special needs. The nurse told them she didn't know they were coming and that she was not the homeowner. They proceeded to enter my home anyway and went into my attic. That is completely unacceptable. Between the poor workmanship, attempting to charge me $1,200 for a problem they caused, refusing to take responsibility, damaging/staining my driveway, and a separate company showing up unannounced and entering my home while I wasn't there after being told they weren't expected, I would not trust this company anywhere near my home again. Do yourself a favor and call someone else.
