    Installed copper pipes for the water softener

    James was awesome! I hired him to install our water softener. He did an excellent job! I can't recommend him enough. I contacted him through Yelp, and we communicated through text to schedule our FREE estimate. James drove from Galt to Elk Grove to give me a free quote, unlike the other local two plumbers that charged for an estimate (and both gave me different information about installing a softener). I could tell he was knowledgeable because he gave me specs on my system. Right away, I sensed he was very honest. He and his partner finished in about 2 hours. He even made it easy enough for me to add a whole house filter on my own if i wanted to. The final cost ended up being cheaper than the quote. It's like getting a discount! Trust me, it was VERY reasonable and an affordable price. At the time of this review, James' license had been active for about 1 year. I only note this because he might start getting really busy and his price goes up lol.

    5 stars!

    We had the pleasure of working with Fabian, and he was fantastic. He showed up on time, worked quickly, and was honest and professional the whole way through. He knew exactly what to do, explained everything clearly, and gave us great advice for the next steps in our repair. It's rare to find someone this knowledgeable and straightforward. We'll definitely be using this company again, and I highly recommend them!

I asked for recommendations on the Rancho Cordova page on Facebook, and was recommended to call and speak to Leo. Leo was friendly and helpful And when I explained the situation, he said, yes, he could definitely help. Even though we are in a cold snap, he said he would come out at the end of his workday. I am a disabled veteran, so it was very nice that he would take a little bit of extra time to help me out. He and his assistant showed up at about 5:30 in the afternoon, and went to work. It took them less than a half an hour, and they were done. I had heat again. *YAAAYYY!!!* with no heat, I had been staying in a hotel the last couple of nights, it was nice to get back home. The price to get all of this done was very reasonable. You can't go wrong with this company. Thank you so very much for your help.

    A++ Company! So,…read morefunny story about how we connected with this company. We stopped by my in-laws' house in EG last night. It had been a hot day and we noticed the A/C fan in their house was blowing loudly but it was sweltering inside. Took a peek at their thermostat, which read 77 but felt more like a 87 in our house. Temp was set for 72, but was not cooling. We commented that their A/C didn't seem to be working. Father-in-law said he would call one of the companies that sent an ad in the mail for "$49 A/C Tune-Up." We told him it'd definitely cost more than $49 to fix the issue, and that was just a ploy to get customers to call them and upcharge. I told them we'd contact the company that has helped my parents in the past. So I quickly logged on to Yelp to find the company. They were pretty quick to respond in the past, so I figured they would call the next day and set up an appt. I sent a message to them and was very surprised when I got a message back from them in minutes! Gave them a call and Vince told me he actually had a guy finishing up a project in our area. I was shocked because it was almost 8pm! He said they had two shifts for their company, since people are having A/C issues around the clock. Long story short, Brian showed up around 10-15 minutes after I got off the phone with Vince. I was kinda in disbelief about how fast everything had happened. We definitely didn't think we'd find a company who could make it out to their house while we were still there! Brian diagnosed the problem as the unit lacking refrigerant. Added 2 lbs of R22 and pretty soon we could feel cool air circulating through the house. Throughout the night, Vince kept in constant communication with us and had a fantastic sense of humor. When I told him the A/C was working now, he sent a Carlton dance gif, lol. After Brian left, Vince sent me an invoice. When I saw it, I thought, "Oh interesting, they changed their logo." A few minutes later, I realized I had actually messaged a different company on Yelp than I had intended. The companies' names are practically identical, except the other one had the word "plumbing" in it, lol. I told Vince of the mistake and we kinda laughed about it. He said, "We were meant to be!!!!" :) I was able to pay via Venmo and Vince was able to give my in-laws a senior discount. It was not cheap, but based on how quickly they were able to fix the issue, the convenience was worth it. Highly recommend this company and they will be our go-to in the future for HVAC repairs. Thanks, Vince and Brian!!

The guy that came out was professional, did a great job, and walked me through the process (which was exactly as I was told on the phone). The problem is how my wife noticed our spigot was leaking outside... and AFTER the guy fixed it, my wife asked if she could just leave the water on and just close the hose nozzle when shes done using it. So we fixed a leak that we wouldn't even had notice should my wife had a thought a day earlier. Sigh...

As great as that was, i should have done more estimates as they charged way more than it should have been. Word of advice, get a toilet through a store, then have them install it for cheaper. Anyhow a different tech came to put the new toilet in. He was nice and did a good job. However, should have checked the upper tank and it was wobbly a bit. I messaged them and ask if that's normal. A different tech came and temporary fixed it. I believe it's that type of tank that is just not steady in the upper part (top flush button) I ended up again using a towel to put behind to make it sturdy. Imagine that, a pricy toilet that uses a towel to keep the upper part sturdy. As annoying as it is to get estimates, you should definitely do that before you settle for one that's more pricy than it should have been. And all they care about is you rating them and keep asking you to rate them through email and phone.

Their initial estimate was for a smaller system so I requested that they provide an estimate for a larger system. The staff was great and provided an estimate for the larger system which I appreciated. On the day of setup, they two employees provided information on the system and were timely and quick in set-up. I appreciated how friendly they were and they provided information on the system. During set-up they notified their might be a power issue related to the system but after discussion with the owner, they determined that the system would be adequately powered. Overall it was a great experience and I believe the system the set-up was a great value. Looking to get lower bills in the summer when the heat cranks up! Only issue that I did not notice till later is that they actually had changed out to from a stealth to a trident but they had upped the version. Initially I was surprised by this but since it was a larger system and it was still able to be powered I did not have any issues.
