The picture of the broken piece that was sent to the business in advance.

Had one of the plumbers come to my house with zero manners. Unexpectedly rude and crass. He spoke with a demeaning tone. Accused me of "breaking" my own plumbing. And said "who f*cked with this?". We had them do all of the valves in the shower 4 years ago and thought they might have a replacement part for the part that's clearly broken. ( on the inside) I sent pictures so that he would " have the right part". He said he didn't. Awful customer service. I wouldn't have this person in my house again. Clearly irritable. *update in reply my actual plumber looked at it. But because it was done by your company he said it might be easier for them to get the parts. I did not suggest that the work is warrantied but I thought the part may be. His lack customer service, attitude, and combative stance makes me think that it's a family issue. No thank you. I will be sharing my opinion.

We've used them a couple of times. They are always on time, do a great job, and charge a reasonable fee. We highly recommend them.

I called last week because we had a mini-split installed (DIY) and needed a technician to come out,…read moretest the lines, check the electrical and turn on the unit to test it. When I called, I was treated very nicely on the phone and was able to schedule an appointment within 48 hours. Diagostic appointments are $89 during the week and $149 on Saturday. Our technician, Wes, was very professional, on time and easy to talk to. He came out and checked the unit (we needed a different fuse) and turned the unit on and got it running. I was very happy with the service from the ladies in the office to Wes our technician. Just a heads up, they have a monthly maintenance plan ($12.95 a month) that they will try and sell you. It includes an annual check of your A/C unit and of your heater. Any additional work or service calls are then 20% off. Just an FYI, if it is a good deal for you, then I would suggest getting it, if not, they will still service you. Thank you Honey's for making our experience a Sweet One!

Walk down what they will be doing and always listens to our concerns as well. Today we got to meet Lorenzo, the tech that will be servicing us today. Just wow, what a nice guy and thorough as well cleaned our unit like his own. He also showed us some before and after pics. He also made a suggestion when he found out I had bad allergies and saw the 3 air purifiers throughout the house. lol. He recommended us to get the unit that plugs into out HVAC unit. So far I'm impressed of the install and can wait to see if it makes a difference, it should and kill any bacteria as well. Anyways I hope this review helps, tell them yelp sent you!!

At the end of March 2026, I submitted a project in Yelp asking for help to unclog my toilet. I…read moreinitially attempted to use my automatic snake to free up the debris that was clogging the toilet but the snake was stuck and I couldn't pull it out, and so I got help using Yelp to find me a licensed contractor. The plumber was able to pull out the snake but it doing so the at the end of the snake it had a bunch of fiber glass insulation maybe the size of a golf ball. As he continued to do his work, he then called me a 2nd time to show me what he pulled out of the drain, which was a softball size of Wall insulation. We were both puzzled as to how insulation was in the plumbing. At first he said that maybe the installation was not done correctly and may have been done in a way where the venting just went into the attic and the snake ended up pulling insulation from the attic. But I then by checked and went into the attic and noticed that the venting went all the way through the roof as per code, and so the plumber mentioned then that someone must of flushed this material down the toilet. This didn't make sense because there's no logical reason why my daughter or my wife would have access to insulation on the 2nd floor of my house to even put down the toilet. I questioned him again and he said that there was no other way except that the insulation was put there intentionally and thus clogged the toilet. I asked him also if he had a camera to inspect, but he said he forgot it. So after "unclogging" the toilet he then did some tests like draining water down the toilet and verified that it was draining properly. I asked if everything is working order and that he fixed the problem, and he responded that he did. I paid him the $325 for the service and he left. Fast forward to today, we heard a bang from something falling and to later find out that my wedding Portrait has fallen off the wall. Upon closer inspection, I noticed that the drywall was wet and moist. Btw, this area of the wall hides the drain pipe from the 2nd floor bathroom and upon further investigation, I saw that the iron drain pipe was disconnected from the rubber grommet that connects to the pvc 45 degree elbow drain. So all this time my bathroom drain was not going down the iron pipe but instead falling down like a waterfall down to the first floor behind the interior walls. I spoke to the plumber and he refuses to take responsibility and says the he did the job and unclogged the toilet. He insisted that it was my problem and that he did was he was hired to do. I explained to him that yes he unclogged the toilet but in doing so he inadvertently jarred the drain pipe off the rubber grommet that connected it to the main PVC pipe, and also it now makes sense that the metal snake caught the insulation from the wall rather than insulation which he suggested was in the drain pipe by someone placing it down the drain. He's arguing that it was my doing that I got the metal snake caught in the first place and so the fact that he removed it, he felt he did his job. Below are the pictures of what happens when a plumber doesn't have the right tools(camera) to ensure all the plumbing he worked on is working and in order before leaving a job.
