This plumbing company is predatory and takes advantage of ignorance. Hire a local self employed plumber for 1/4 the cost. These plumbers are too scared and lazy to get their own van, they could make more and charge less. Boycott these guys.

We were told we'd have to wait three weeks, but that was better than other places quoted. We have a fireplace, and it was beginning of November, were fine until then. The very nice scheduler said they'd put us on a list in case there was a chance to fit us in sooner. Luckily just that thing happened two weeks out. The repair man showed up on time, and was very clean, friendly, and professional. He asked thorough questions and assess the situation fully. He finds have time us we needed a new heater, but he was very honest. He did a couple of tests to be sure and found that we only needed a new thermostat. He answered all of our questions in detail and in ways that we could understand. He offered to install thermostat for free if we ordered through him. Otherwise, he said it was so very simple to do we can do ourselves, and he even showed us how and sent us detailed explanation on how to do it with one we would go buy ourselves. He offered advice on thermostat types and brands. Definitely will use again!

I would never recommend this company for any repairs or services. There are plenty of other options. Anyone taking advantage over someone in a predicament is far from honest or worth doing any kind of business with. *had to pick a rating so chose 1 star otherwise I'd give it zero ratings!!

My water heater wasn't working and even with a busy schedule, he made time to swing by. Even then he checked another unit that wasn't working.

He didn't just do the one job, he stood by and checked around to make sure the overall integrity was good. He tries to find ways for to be cost effective. He is greatly appreciated!

We will give the new owners a try when we need plumbing assistance. Thank you for reaching out so quickly to follow up! Old Ownership, Hillman: Extremely disappointed does not begin to describe how I feel after recommending this individual to my recently widowed mother. He got lost, although he lives on the mountain, was routinely rude to my mom on the phone and in person once he arrived. She's trying her best, and address shows correctly with exact accuracy on Google Maps. He spoke very kindly with me and then was very condescending to my mom. Therefore I cancelled him immediately and she broke down in TEARS to me after he left, talking about how he made her feel belittled and reprimanded her that she "needs to learn how to give directions". Maybe he needs to learn how to use Google instead! Maybe he needs a lesson in patience and understanding.... in common decency, respect and basic customer service.

They are a joy to work with, fast, fare, honest, reliable and do quality work. I've come to learn it's a family trade and their experience shows in their work and customer service. Gilbert, the owner is lighting responsive, down to earth and makes sure you're taken care of. I've mainly have had Gilbert, Chris, Erin and Jordan. I just want to give them a Big Thanks on Yelp and let you Yelpers know- this company is GREAT. I'll just add this... maybe I'm picky, but I've had a hard time finding reliable, quality companies on the mountain for many services like tree trimming, asphalt work, snow plowing.... This is a company I am thankful for and will be sticking with.

What I appreciated most is that they ran through several diagnostic procedures to determine the most probable cause. Because they took the time to do this, the fee for their services was much less than expected. Specifically, a clogged line has a minimum charge of $450. They determined it was only a clogged toilet, and so only charged me $250! That really made my day. Both Joseph and Paul were very friendly and were very communicative with me. I was never left wondering what they were doing, and this gave me confidence in their skill and honesty. They treated me as they would have wanted to be treated. I felt very valued and respected as a customer. Raymond and Anny Genato

I live in Palm Springs and called Pride Plumbing for help with work related to a kitchen…read morerenovation. I had high expectations based on their Google reviews and clear communication with dispatch. Sadly, the experience I had was unlike anything I have ever experienced in my 20 years of homeownership. Here are things to watch out for with Pride Plumbing of Redlands and Palm Desert: 1) bait and switch service scope and pricing; 2) sloppy and legally-insufficient estimates; 3) inexperienced plumbers with very poor communication and interpersonal skills; 4) promised and broken arrival times; 5) inability to work cooperatively with other tradesmen (by their own admission); 6) customer blaming for their miscommunication; 7) unfamiliarity with high-end, European-made gas appliances (by their own admission); 8) leaving metal debris behind for the customer to dispose of; 9) not providing customers timely copies of their estimates; and 10) not providing customers copies of paid receipts for work. If you have a mid-mod in Palm Springs or a kitchen renovation with high-end European appliances, I do not recommend Pride based on my experience. They'll arrive late, argue with you, overcharge you, waste your time, and then not give you a receipt.

Out of the ones who responded, he was the only one who gave us a direct price estimate and he was quick with answering our inquiries. We booked him for the following Monday and he was right on time. He effeciently worked on installing new kitchen faucet and garbage disposal and did not leave any mess. He made sure that we did not have any leaks and double checked thoroughly. One of the things he also did was fixed the pipes under the sink for us as a bonus, which we are very thankful for! We appreciate his great workmanship and his personality. We are happy that we trusted our gut and hired him. I most definitely recommend him! Thank you Ezequiel!
