    Improper sealing of shower knobs. The one on the right was properly sealed; however he somehow forgot to do the other two.

    I would write a review of less than one star but I cannot. If you want reliable service do not go here please. It is a headache that is not worth it. I had someone from this company come in to fix a leaking pipe and they did. However, in the process they created a different problem. When I went to turn on my shower, water would still come out from the bottom faucet. Because of this, they sent another guy to fix this issue that the original plumber could not solve. However the new plumber seemed to be in a hurry for some reason. Once he "finished" the job I had to check quickly if he had fixed the problem. He did, but I noticed after he left that he did not properly seal off knobs that turn on the shower (you can see images of this below). Additionally, I tried to talk to him after checking the shower and he was incredibly disrespectful. In the middle of talking to him he walked away and got in his truck. He walked into my house acting like he owned the place and walked out doing the same. I've genuinely never had such a negative Interaction with a company before. If you ever decide to use this company good luck.

I explained the situation to her, and she had technician Shane Nase come out to assess the issue almost immediately. Shane was here for about an hour and got me back up and running with AC. THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART!!! Highly recommend Sunshine Services for your needs!

    I have used this company multiple times for both water heater and electrical work, and I want to be…read moreclear that the technicians and plumbers themselves have always been great. Unfortunately, my most recent experience with the office has been incredibly frustrating. After work was completed, it took close to SIX weeks for the office to take the necessary next steps to get the city inspection completed--something that normally should take a few days. The biggest issue wasn't simply the delay; it was the complete lack of communication. I was never proactively informed about what was happening or why there was a delay. I had to repeatedly call to get updates, and the explanation was consistently some variation of "we need paperwork" or "things behind the scenes are challenging." When the LOC paperwork was finally submitted--roughly three weeks after I had signed it--we were able to get the inspection completed. Unfortunately, I'm now experiencing another issue. I have been trying to get an answer regarding the company covering the water pipes connecting my home to the meter, and I have essentially been ghosted. I have called at least five times in the past week and each time I'm told that "the manager will reach out" or "we're waiting for the supervisor." Still no resolution and no meaningful communication. What makes this especially disappointing is that I had great experiences with this company previously. The people actually doing the work have been excellent, which is why I have continued to use and recommend the company. But good technicians cannot make up for an office that fails to communicate, follow up, and take ownership of issues after the work is completed. I'm extremely disappointed by the level of incompetence and lack of communication from the office/management during this process. I expected much better from a company I had previously had positive experiences with. I would not recommend you use there services.

I have never had this high of a rating (4.6) let me down before. The 2 stars is only because the gentleman who finally came out today was so courteous and professional, otherwise this would have been a 1 star for sure. About 3 weeks I had a late evening plumbing situation. As it was after hours I needed someone who offered emergency services. I should have known when the gentleman said he was on his way and gave an estimated time and then came almost an hour after the estimate to terminate this experience then. But not liking to take chances with leaking water, I allowed the gentleman to proceed further, smell of alcohol on one of the two men that showed up and all. I mean hey, it was late, may have been winding down with a beer. Gentleman said he needed to cut a hole in the wall but don't worry, I'm going to get the area where I cut at all nice and neat for you before we wrap things up (that messed he made the first night is still there). The next day I called and was asking about the 2 gentleman that came to my house, because I found it a bit odd that one had on a company shirt and the other didn't. The person who answered the next day kept mentioning the main guy that I had been told was coming. I asked, "And Chris," and the gentleman seemed thrown off. To this day I don't truly know if this company has an apprentice named Chris working for them or not. Now comes the good part, I was told my part had to be ordered and the part would come in between the 10th and the 16th. I get it, things happen, what I don't get is that premier thinks it's ok not to proactively communicate with their customers. As a call should have come in to me the early evening of the 16th at the latest. No call. On the 17th I get a call that the part was delayed. Duh! I figured that much myself when no one showed up the 10th through the 16th. I was told on the 17th that the part should be there on the 18th. The entire business day went by and I didn't hear a word from premier. I ended up calling them after I got off work at 5pm. Was then told the new expected date was that Monday. Monday came and went and again no proactive follow up. I called them again on Tuesday morning and was told they'd give me a call as soon as they heard something. Again, I understand that many companies are at the mercy of other companies. And if that company delays it can cause delays with their timeline. What I do not understand is why this company did not follow up proactively during these delays. They put way too much work on me the customer. This is NOT acceptable customer service. Finally, today they come to place the part, only to tell me after placing the part that another leak was detected. I'm bewildered by the fact that a company that specializes in leak detection and plumbing, so they say, didn't have some type of device/test that could haved detected sooner that there was a bigger problem. Because what did I really wait all this time for you all to fix? Certainly not the full problem. To say I am disappointed is an understatement. And I made my review as lengthy as my wait for this poor customer service. Now if y'all will excuse me, let me go clean this mess that Mike left in my house, promising that he was going to tidy up and created a lil window so if ever needed again the plumbing would be easy to check. Premier, I truly hope that is someone's last name. It definitely wasn't the level of service I experienced. Please do better in the future for others. As for me, one and done. But kudos to the kind gentleman that came out today. He got you a star back.
