    How their technician parked when arriving 1.5 hours past there time frame and yes he stayed parked like that the entire service call.

    Absolutely the Worst Plumbing Company I've Ever Dealt With I don't typically leave negative reviews, but after three separate service calls at three different properties, I feel obligated to warn others. Premier Plumbing has been, without question, the most unprofessional plumbing company I've ever worked with. The common theme in every experience was poor communication, missed expectations, lack of preparation, and unprofessional service. Property #1: One repair involved what appeared to be a temporary fix by placing a rag between two hot metal pipes instead of properly addressing the issue. There were also several other items that were either overlooked or not completed correctly, including maintenance on the water heater. While I wasn't happy, I gave them the benefit of the doubt and moved on. Property #2: This experience was far worse. A technician inspected my water heater and showed me how dangerous its condition had become. It looked like it was close to catching fire. Because the water heater was located near my bedroom and close to my children's rooms, I asked that it simply be replaced rather than repaired. He agreed and submitted it for replacement. Instead of replacing it promptly, Premier Plumbing shut off my water heater, leaving me without hot water for nearly three weeks. During that entire time, communication was almost nonexistent. The company would not answer phone calls. Every attempt to get an update had to be done through text messages, and getting a response was incredibly difficult. I had to repeatedly contact my home warranty company just to find out what was happening. As the customer, I shouldn't have to do all of the coordination between my contractor and my warranty company. When they finally arrived to install the replacement, they showed up without basic tools and had to borrow towels, a hose, and pliers from me just to complete the job. It was one of the most unprepared service visits I've ever witnessed. Property #3 (The Final Straw): Unfortunately, my home warranty company assigned Premier Plumbing yet again. I was given a service window of 2:00-5:00 PM. Since I was out of town, my partner left work early to wait at the property. After waiting over 4 1/2 hours, they still hadn't arrived. He eventually had to leave because he gets up at 3:00 AM for work, so I had to call my son to take over waiting. The technician finally arrived an hour and a half after the scheduled window. His vehicle was left parked in the middle of the roadway while he worked, and his overall appearance and behavior raised concerns about whether he was fit to be performing service work. Communication with management was just as frustrating as before. Phone calls were ignored, and they would only communicate through text messages. When I simply asked for an ETA after waiting for hours, I was met with a rude response asking if I just wanted to cancel. Even after arriving extremely late, they still couldn't complete the repair because they only brought three of the four required valves, despite already knowing exactly what repair they were coming out to perform. They had to schedule another trip the following day just to finish a job that should have been completed the first time. Not to mention the job he did come and complete is STILL leaking. The following day, while trying to get another update, I received a text stating they would "fix it, close the ticket, and red flag it." As a homeowner, hearing the phrase "red flag the ticket" immediately concerned me because it could potentially affect a warranty claim depending on the circumstances. I immediately contacted my home warranty company to document everything and protect myself. This isn't about one bad day. This is about three separate properties, three separate service experiences, and the exact same problems every single time: - Extremely poor communication - Refusal to answer phone calls - Requiring customers to communicate only through text - Late arrivals - Lack of preparation - Returning multiple times because they didn't bring the necessary parts - Unprofessional customer service - No accountability The Reno/Sparks area has many plumbing companies available. Consumers have options, and based on my repeated experiences, I strongly encourage people to choose one of them instead. I gave Premier Plumbing multiple chances because they kept being assigned through my home warranty company. Unfortunately, each experience was worse than the last. After three separate incidents, I can confidently say I will never allow this company to perform work on any of my properties again.

    Cut pipe, left inactive pipe that used to run to kitchen, however the gas stove was removed by previous homeowner. 90 degree albow was added

    I had premier plumbing come out to diagnose some leaks. Unfortunately, they only addressed the obvious leaks in the garage and didn't inspect the attic or the crawl space. Before completing the job, they charged me $700 for the permits and then wanted an additional $3,800 on top of that, after realizing there were more leaks, making a total of $4,500, to replace all the piping, claiming it wasn't covered by my home warranty due to abnormal wear and tear. I then found the leak myself by cutting into the drywall behind my appliances and called another company, who fixed it in just two hours with a simple mega press fitting. This clearly shows it was normal wear and tear, despite their initial assessment. I was also blocked from making a warranty claim because of their assessment, even though it was proven to be a simple fix. If you're looking for reliable plumbers, I highly recommend Jet for manometer services and 24-Hour Rapid Rooter for plumbing work--they both have great integrity and are a pleasure to do business with.

Rich, the owner of the business answered the call and sent Chris out for the quote. Their price was fair and lower compared to another quote and their knowledge of the work that would be required was extensive and much appreciated. They said they could do the job on Monday so I hired them on the spot. Chris showed up promptly Monday morning and spent the day doing an extremely meticulous job on the install. He took his time to make sure the end result would be pleasing to my very picky aesthetic standards as well as operating perfectly. The entire system was tested and working perfectly before I paid a dime. Look no further than Jolly Rooter for a very competent and reasonable plumbing company with excellent and friendly customer service! I will use them for all of my plumbing needs going forward and highly recommend you give them a call if you're here looking for a plumber. Thank you Chris! A+

(With a household of 6 the daily use of the washing machine, bathtubs, and dishwasher had to be carefully timed and even then we sometimes had to use water that wasn't the appropriate temperature; having hot water on demand has been a lifesaver during this season of raising young children). Dirty Plumber was quick to respond to my husband's quote request and the company was transparent with pricing. I really feel we got a good value and quality work. After the work was completed, I later saw the business owner volunteering at AWANAS (apparently he's a regular who volunteers every week with the kids); this gave me further confidence that the owner must be genuine guy who's speal about how he was able to offer the best price really could be trusted. I *WILL* say that had I been the one looking at quotes (rather than my husband) the name "Dirty Plumber" would not have necessarily deterred me but the ugly cartoon mascot painting on their company truck certainly may have! I would imagine oftentimes women are the ones who arrange their schedule to let the employee in to do the work and the "plumber's crack", actively smoking while working, disheveled grumpy looking mascot painted on their van didn't exactly paint a picture of professionalism, reliability, or safety. THANKFULLY, I felt the owner and employee who arrived to do the work were professional in their interactions, overall appearance, time on task, and attention to detail (the tankless water heater is installed evenly on my garage wall and the insulation on it looks neat and tidy). If you are considering switching to a tankless water heater I highly recommend Dirty Plumber. Their price is great, they are thorough, and the quality work is evident.

    UPDATE JUNE 27TH:…read more Sir, you know very well that's not all you did, you guys demanded payment without even assessing my sink first. I HIGHLY doubt you do that when you visit your white client's homes. I was also very welcoming and friendly to both of you. If you guys don't want to work with non-white customers, just add a sign to your business that clearly states "WHITES ONLY". ------------------------------------ ORIGINAL REVIEW: I don't even know how to address this, but here it goes: Do you guys demand payment upfront before even assessing the clogs from ALL your clients? When I opened the door, both technicians looked at me up and down and asked first if it was an apartment and told me they couldn't work here, to which I asked "why tho?" And the sir replied "because you have to let property management know, who's gonna pay?" as if thinking we weren't paying? I mean that's exactly why we called you, because WE WANTED TO PAY TO FIX OUR PROBLEM. Then after telling them that we of course were paying (hello?), before even assessing the clog, payment was demanded, and they didn't start until payment was confirmed. The other guy wouldn't even acknowledge me or respond to me when I made him a direct question. I'm not calling it racism, but it very well felt like I was being racially profiled. Yes, they fixed the problem and I'm very thankful for that, but the experience was very awkward. If you guys tell me that's your MO with ALL your clients and you ask for the payment first before even starting, I'll consider editing rating and review.

    Our home warranty sent a plumber out, who I'll review separately, to diagnose and fix a basement…read morebathroom that stopped drawing. They said it was a mainline issue and we would have to find someone else. Based on Yelp reviews we called the Plumbing Doctor and had an appointment the next day. As it turns out the basement doesn't go to the mainline but goes through an ejector tank & pump up to the mainline. It took Dave about 3 minutes to diagnose the problem as a failed pump. He basically cleared the schedule the next day, had the pump replaced and we're back in business. Communicated through the whole process. Even though dealing with sewage in our basement the job was done spotlessly with a very thorough clean up. Pricing seems very reasonable though we didn't shop around. I'll give this locally owned small business a call every time and just skip my home warranty in the future. Much less headache for a reasonable price.

So then they told us we would get $50 off on the job for the next day. That was also fine. When I called the next day to see when they were coming, I was told they don't do small like ours. They said they would come for $225 plus job expenses. When I mentioned the earlier amounts that were quoted to me, I was told that the manager who spoke with me before did not know their policies. I try to use local businesses every chance I get. This one didn't work out. I called a larger chain operation and they came over the next did the whole job for $100, labor included. Not a big deal in the greater scheme of things, but maybe Michael's managers need to get on the same page as their schedulers.
