Second project with Nathaniel and Brass Monkey Plumbing. This was adding a utility sink in the garage. Involved tapping hot and cold water lines as well as running the drain pipe about 30-35' through the crawl space to the main house drain pipe. They took extra care to not damage new crawl space duct work and secure the sink to the wall for better stability. Exactly what I wanted - don't have to use the bath tub to clean up after painting! Project took about 4 hours plus another 30 minutes to come back after it passed inspection. Fair priced as always.

Now that the door was installed I want to say the shower is fantastic. Thanks for a job well done.

I want to thank all of you at Brass Monkey for making our project turn out so well. Everyone was so wonderful to work with. They worked hard and were very professional & efficient. We had a problem with damaged shower panels, and they took care of it in a timely manner. We love the new shower. We will be using Brass Monkey in the future for a couple of other projects that we intend to do and (heaven forbid) if we have any plumbing problems, they will be our go to company. And will recommend them to friends and family. Thanks to everyone for a job well done. Aalyiah you were really great to work with. A special thank you to you.

My gas tank water heater was 20 years old and I decided to replace it pre-emptively. I requested a…read morequote from 3 companies, one of which was the Water Heater Doctor. Their quote came in the lowest and Brandon was extremely helpful on the phone, so I ended up choosing them. - The quote process was great: I submitted their online form, they gave me a call asking for more details, I sent them a few pictures, and they gave me another call with solutions and a quote. The quote also happened to be the cheapest of the 3 companies I got bids from. - The installation went very smoothly. I understand that direct vent water heaters are a little tricky to install, but Brandon installed perfectly. He arrived on time, got rid of our old water heater, and added a new water heater with several fixes: the overflow pipe now runs to the sink, he used a "flex vent" kit so the water heater can sit on the ground, and he put the water heater in a tray to reduce issues from slow leaks since I don't have a basement drain. - After the install, Brandon taught me how to change the temp / turn the water heater off / how to flush it / how to change the anode rod. Very pleased with the work and my new water heater is working flawlessly. The only downside was that there was no permit. I'm no expert on permits. Portland's website says that water heater changes require a permit. Brandon said it's a "gray area" for residential. I am not planning on selling the house and things looked good to me, so I don't mind too much.

It has continued to work effectively, has never broken down and the associated electric bills are much lower than a standard central AC/heating system. The annual maintenance ensures that the system is well maintained and if needed, it also covers any "unexpected" problems that may occur. Sky's technicians have all been outstanding! Kaylah who performed this year's maintenance was no exception! Would highly recommend!

After the Sky technician had spent much time looking at my furnace , I was being pressured to buy also a new furnace in order to make sure the ac compressor and condense coils will be able to work properly. While my furnace has just been checked and tuned a year ago and was working great, I was not convinced by such pressurized cross-selling tactics of the Sky technician. It was a lot more than what I want to spend and thus no deal. The story did not end there. When winter came after that meeting with the Sky technician, my furnace seemed working inconsistently. It got on and off frequently and barely blowing out the warm air. Then this second winter begins and the furnace seemed dying with only the first 2 burners lit and not the last burner. I checked on Google and YouTube for the probably cause and discovered that the last burner was off alignment when the flame became unable to hopover and stays on to heat up the air flow. I learnt to fix it DIY in about 15 minutes. I suspect that the furnace was trying to repeat to me the recommendation to replace it by that Sky technician. Beginning with looking at paying a few thousands to add ac to an inflated kill all price quote of way over 10 grants, I am back to square one of not spending a penny on any cautionary tales of salesman. The evaluation service was below expectations and certainly bad sales quality of negative value. Zero trust. Too bad !

You are not alone!!! We need to fight back at excessive price gouging to the everyday consumer. We need to stop this practice of upselling (your plumber has incentives), price gouging, and being talked into their "WVP membership" (Plumber are also incentivized to sell) that just gets them out there to gouge you more. For those of you looking to see if customers have had bad experiences with Wolfer's: PLEASE READ THIS!!! No matter what, do not use this company for plumbing!! I repeat, do not use Wolfer's! First: There are "NO FREE QUOTES"! NONE! They will charge $99 you to overprice their services. Even if you sign up for the year commitment WVP service, they will charge you $49! Second: They are NOT a "time and material company"!!! They use a "PRICE BOOK" to estimate your quote. "PRICE BOOK" is a fancy way to build in costs that the overall company runs on. They say they make a 10% net profit. If you want to contribute to their entire company's success $$$$, go ahead and use them. You will be sticker shocked when they give you the quote!! Story: I found a water leak in my crawl space. My hot water was leaking from a 1 inch CPVC elbow that was accessible from my crawl space. I called Wolfer's Plumbing on a Saturday to come out to see if they could fix my hot water leak. They arrived on Sunday and fixed the repair. That was the good part, they fixed my issue. Disclosure: I admit this is partly my fault / uneducated in the practices I'm now talking about. I signed a quote without knowing the true extent of the repair. I assumed Wolfer's were like most reputable companies that charge by the Hour (Labor) and material and so I signed a quote for $2549.00. After the plumber left, I felt I was taken advantage when I researched how much the average plumber charges for time and material for the same job. The quote lines were: 1. Repair 1" Plastic Water Line: $1025.00 2. Repair 1" Plastic Water Line: $759.00 3. 2 Gallon Expansion Tank install: $765.00 Work done: Technician truck arrived at my house 8:16 am and was done with the repair and left at 10:16 am same day. (I have timestamps from my security camera). 1. For #1 and #2 Plastic water lines (in the same location): a. Material used: (Home Depot prices May 2026) i. Two 1" SharkBite elbows couplings (2 x $25 each) = $50 ii. Two 1" SharkBite straight couplings (2 x $20 each) = $40 iii. Two 3' PEX-A ("Call it" 10 feet of Pex-A) = $20 b. Time it took to replace: (24 minutes of actual work replacing the lines) c. Cost: $1784 2. For the #3 issue: 2 Gallon expansion tank: a. Material used: (Home Depot prices May 2026) i. 2 Gallon expansion tank = $50 ii. ¾ inch brass Tee and 2 foot brass extension arm for plumbing = (Generous $80) b. Time: 35 minutes of actual work installing the tank. c. Cost: $765 3. My calculation for time and material of the total: $2549.00 a. Material = $240 b. Time (2 hours) = $2309 ($1,154.50 an hour) 4. I called the next business and stated my case of being overcharged (see below), and they gave me a $500 discount. a. My total bill for 2 hours of plumbing was $2,049.00 b. My estimate I paid after I stated my case is $904 an hour. I called the company the next business day to ask the manager why the price is so high. I asked for a breakdown of how much they charge an hour and list of materials used. (Seemed reasonable). The pluming manager Mike explained to me all the above that they use PRICEBOOK and not time and material and NO, will not give out the numbers. He asked me what I was looking for and I said a reasonable amount that most plumbers charge. It was a Sunday and they did arrive the next day. I said charge me a "reasonable" about most time and materials charge for a Sunday morning. I asked for reasonable $1000 off. They said they could give me $500 off my bill. So I paid $2,049 total, when called a local plumber (MT PLUMBING IN Hillsboro) said they would do it all for under $800 total time and material. Lessons Learned!!! Please learn from my $1200+ mistake and not use this company!!! You will be next!
