    Pressure regulator in my garage
    Priscilla B.

    My technician Joseph M. Did a great job replacing my pressure regulator and ball valve. He adequately explained what the issue was and demonstrated how my water pressure was too high. He did the job quickly and we worked out a great price for his services. I would hire the company again for any future plumbing jobs.

    After photo - new wax ring installed
    Bruski N.

    They quoted us $4,250 to fix our clogged toilet. I was at an event but our niece was there when they came to give an estimate. Seeing how young and inexperienced she was, they tried to pull a scare tactic when they lifted the toilet and saw some micro roots at the top of the drain. They claimed that the roots cracked the pipe and they must excavate the soil up to 3 feet deep to access and repair the pipe. Additional fees would be charged if they couldn't get a clean pipe cut. They also said that they would not be responsible for putting back the tiles that were removed to repair. Luckily, my niece contacted me and I was able to assess the problem from the photos that she sent. There were micro-roots but they were too small to crack the pipe. In fact, with all houses (especially old ones), you will find roots near any areas with moisture. Once in a while, these roots can crack old pipes and clog them up. But in our case, I could tell that the micro-roots came up from the outside of the pipe and started to cover the rim of the drain. All you have to do is pull, clear, and clean them out. I asked the plumber why he didn't do that but he insisted that the roots cracked the pipe and he must excavate the bathroom to fix it. By this time, I knew that we were being scammed, and I told him to just put it back so I could get another plumber who was honest and willing to do the right thing. He said fine but we owed them $500 for his work. I brought up their free estimate advertisement but he insisted the charge was for unscrewing two screws, lifting the toilet, using the snake to look down and assess the problem, and putting the toilet back. I couldn't believe what I was hearing but since my niece didn't know and thought it was part of the free estimate. I asked him how much less if he didn't put back the toilet. He called his boss and came back with $400 total for basically a quick 30-minute estimate/evaluation. After the plumber left, I contacted my brother-in-law. He came over to help out. We easily cleared, cleaned, and put back the toilet in less than 40 minutes. There were no cracks. My intuition and assessment were correct and saved us at least $4000 of our hard-earned money. It ended up costing an additional $14.83 for a new wax ring and a tube of caulking. A big lesson learn is that most businesses that use Discount as part of their names will usually charge you a lot more than whatever they are discounting. Don't throw your hard-earned money in the toilet. We are never going to use Discount Plumbing SD again!

    Tankless water heater flushing.
    Nacho R.

    I recently had the pleasure of experiencing a tankless water heater flush service from Discount Plumbing Rooter, and I cannot recommend them highly enough! Our technician, Javier Diaz, arrived promptly and was incredibly knowledgeable and professional throughout the process. Javier took the time to explain the benefits of flushing our tankless water heater, emphasizing how it helps improve efficiency and prolongs the lifespan of the unit. He meticulously and efficiently handled the entire procedure, ensuring that everything was done to the highest standard. I appreciated his attention to detail and care in protecting our home during the service. After the flush, Javier provided helpful tips on maintaining our system, which showed his commitment to customer education and satisfaction. Our water heater is now performing better than ever, and we have already noticed improved water flow and temperature consistency. Overall, this was a fantastic experience, and I am grateful for Javier's expertise and the excellent service provided by Discount Plumbing Rooter. If you need tankless water heater service, look no further--these are the professionals you want! Thank you, Javier!

    This is Javier .. great Plumber

    Javier at Discount Plumbing and Rooter responded immediately and was here within an hour to estimate the job. We went over several alternatives including different pressure regulator valve types and pipe routing. I was very pleased with the quote which was about half of another estimate I'd received. He showed up the next day on time and did a great job in 3 hours. I'd recommend them to anyone else with plumbing issues.

TIMELY- Uriel called 30 min before his arrival and then, arrived at the stated time. This is particularly helpful so I can move my bunny to another room with all of his belongings. ATTENTION TO DETAIL - I saw him place a protective cloth down on the floor before he placed the ladder and tools down. I also noticed there was a bottle of cleaner with his supplies. He cleaned the inside vents as well as the compressor on the roof. He also tied off a loose wire/when checking the air handler in the ceiling. KNOWLEDGEABLE and THROROUGH - Uriel did a complete system check and then, he sat down with me to explain what was done and why. He addressed the concerns I had about some of the prior readings in terms that I could understand and shared tips that will help ensure my system runs at its most efficient. Example: A higher MERV doesn't always mean "better" and can actually restrict the airflow. He said that for my particular system I should use a MERV10 filter and change it every 3 months. He changed my filters and then, left me with two spares to use before the fall check comes. FRIENDLY - In the course of chatting with Uriel, it came up that I might benefit from having more filtered air coming into my condo. He made a recommendation for a part that would replace the standalone room air purifier I currently use. He placed this info into the after-visit summary so I can "research it and see if it fits with my needs and finances." There was zero pressure to make a purchase on the spot. And while this next item has nothing to do with the knowledge or ability of an HVAC tech, I greatly appreciate that he did NOT smell like cigarette / e-cigarette smoke or strong cologne as I have a bunny and people in my family have asthma. Thank you, Uriel, for a job well done.

After we shut off the water, I got to looking for a company that could come out ASAP and resolve the issue. I called WHO around 5 a.m. and they had an overnight messaging service person who took all my info and let me know that I would get a call after 7 a.m. Around 7 a.m. I got a call and was able to set up a same day appointment. The folks on the phone were nice enough and professional. I was thrilled that someone would be coming out soon. We were alerted via text when our technician, Francisco, was on his way and he called to let us know when he would be arriving. Around 10 a.m. he was onsite and ready to assess the issue and give us a quote. They say free estimate, but I`m sure they still charge a service fee if you don`t end up agreeing to the quote. We agreed to the quote even though we didn`t want to( I mean..who WANTS to pay for a new water heater? haha). Anyway, Francisco explained all the parts and labor involved and was very informative about what each component was for and why, which we appreciated. Estimate signed and away we go. Francisco worked quickly and efficiently. By 2 p.m. we had a new water heater and the tech was cleaning up and ready to go. The job was quicker than we thought, which was great, and even though he said to give the water about an hour to heat, we tested it before and we got nice, hot water quickly. The new unit looks so fresh and new and everything went well. We were given a 2 year labor warranty, so that is a nice assurance. All in all, a great experience. I do want to go over pricing because while every scenario is different, I like to be transparent. A lot of people will say, "This is what I was quoted for XYZ" or "I ended up paying such and such amount less than other companies". We had an old unit(about 25 years old), we live in an upstairs condo unit and our water heater is on the balcony in a closer(location of the unit is all considered when quoting). We needed a new water heater(40 gallons), obviously, some new piping(portions, not full), a drip pan, some other bits and bobs(that weren't that expensive) and you are paying for the labor and expertise of the tech). We ended up with a $3000 bill for this service. AGAIN, every situation is different, but I do like to give the Yelp community a run down of my situation and pricing so that they can make informed decisions. As mentioned above, a great experience and we are back up and running with our hot water. I will update if anything significant happens.

This time around, our Rheem water heater failed before reaching even 7 years, despite having a 12‑year warranty. Even though Quick is closed on weekends, Brandon texted me and set us up first thing Monday morning. Ben (sales) was extremely helpful, walked me through all the options, and made a genuine effort to get Rheem to honor the warranty. Unfortunately, Rheem couldn't provide a replacement and instead offered fair market compensation (still TBD). Not thrilled with Rheem, but Ben handled the situation professionally and kept me informed throughout. We ultimately went with a Bradford White, and Sammy installed it the same day. His work was excellent--professional, efficient, and spotless cleanup. The Bradford White + installation was very reasonable and very surprisingly comparable to my prior installation. Very impressed with Quick's responsiveness, professionalism, and ability to turn everything around in a single day. Highly recommend them.

We are loyal to our vendors/contractors as great workmanship is not always easy to come by. In the past Jacob, Erik, and others on the team were always professional, prompt, down to earth-- and all experts. They installed our 3 water heaters from them and a whole house filtration system. We have recommended them to our neighbors as well. Had the most uncomfortable conversation with owner Brandon who we've never interacted with in the past. Shockingly rude. I even said, "sounds like I caught you at a bad time" - yikes. A top contender for most negative and weird vibes from a sales/client interaction. This call happened after a slightly frustrating visit with Ben who admitted he only has 1 year of experience and was trying to keep up as best as he could. He was actively trying to learn on the spot. He was honest which I commend. Ben left saying he needs an actual technician present along with the owner's help to develop a more solid option and plan to move forward. Not a problem at all. It must be frustrating being an expert in your field having to speak about the same products and concepts with home owners who are relearning different/new systems on the fly. But if customer service is not your forte, stick to delegating and take hospitality courses so your loyal customers don't feel like they have to be apologetic for having questions on a $11k quote. Sadly, a "could have been better" 2/5 star experience, wish we could stick with them. Pro tip, maybe ask to exclusively interface with the seasoned members of their crew with 5+ years of experience so you avoid any negativity and can actually get the work you need done.
