He cut the drain pipe then stormed off without reparing it. Refused to put a coupler on the pipe he left cut then dared me to sue him. Badmouthed and racially berated the last name of the homeowner.

The second time around, not upset it took two days, not upset it leaked, but what I was upset about…read morewas two things, one I am forbidden to mention as my source does not want this story to be told, but it solidified I hired the wrong human. The second issue which I can recount, is the cost was 856.84 thereabout for one faucet and the plumbing under the two cast iron sinks. Once you go past a certain price, you legally have to have a contractors license, and the scalping was over the legal limit. I read with great interest that the DA is closing in on unlicensed renegades over charging. I am sad to report this. As many one stars I give, I never like doing it, but at times it has to be done. When is a contractor's license required in California? According to state law, it is illegal for an unlicensed contractor to advertise as being licensed or contract for work exceeding $500 in value for labor and materials.Dec 16, 2012

I've been using Kenny Rogers Plumbing for quite a long time now and have had good experiences with…read moreevery plumbing job they've done for my home or business. Although I've used their plumbers at home, mostly I've needed them for my business, since I've got a commercial property with a number of bathrooms, kitchen, and so on. I cannot afford to have down time with the plumbing at my business, so if I have a plumbing issue, I call Kenny Rogers Plumbing right away. They are knowledgeable, capable, give accurate quotes on projects, arrive on time, and their work is impeccable. I highly recommend Kenny Rogers Plumbing for residential and commercial plumbing needs. I have found over the years that it is better for me to hire the best, get the plumbing problem taken care of correctly, for the right price, and get on with my business. Whether it is just a broken toilet or I need a new sink or shower, I know I can count on them to keep my business operating. Previous to working with Kenny Rogers Plumbing I tried hiring other plumbers years ago and wound up in a mess, so I always call Kenny now. He and his crew are the best plumbers in the area, as far as I'm concerned.

A few weeks ago my ex (of 7 years) called my cell and asked to come over right away…read more She had a sound of desperation in her voice and she didn't provide any details with her urgent call. Like an optimistic chump I grabbed my car keys and headed to her place with a sense of optimism in my heart. I arrived at her new furnished apartment with expectation of reconcile for the holidays. Instead I met a pool of sewage that was coming up from her tub. I quickly realized she viewed as a convenient handyman at her beckon call. :( I looked deeply into her eyes and said "honey; this will be a dirty job and it would be best to leave for a long movie . I will call when it is done." She flashed her Bambi eyes to me with a quick flutter and skipped to her car; with a knowledge that I will be dealing with her plumbing problem. Like a man !! So what did I do first? I yelped" Plumbing". Kenny had an opening between work sites and he came over for a consolation. Kenny mentioned that the problem was a very simple and he can do right away. His prices were very reasonable and I felt comfortable with dealing with him. I would highly recommend his service to anyone that is having plumbing issues. His work is very impressive.

They put a call out to their employees and Scott was at the house that afternoon. He unclogged the toilet, cleaned up the bathroom and kept us informed throughout the process. Scott was polite, considerate and asked if we needed anything else before leaving. We will be calling them for future projects.

I would advise against using Travis. I've worked with a lot of plumbers over the years, and hired…read morethem because it sounded like they'd get things right, and get them done swiftly. He sent in a couple younger guys which were really nice, but they were messy in how they cut into things, there were miscommunications about materials, and the scheduling was inconsistent. Communication consisted mainly of sending invoices, and when I asked to hop on a quick call, I instead got sparse texts. They left materials around and for stuff that they messed up, they had a shoddy way of correcting it, by the time I found those things, I didn't even want to contact them to fix them because it wasn't worth the time or money (which was not cheap, and the project ballooned into double the cost). To say I was dissatisfied would be an understatement. As I'm seeing the signs all over the valley lately, I thought I'd give a fair warning to those that may bite. I rarely write reviews, and in particular, I stay away from negative ones, but this is just not ok.

I was looking to replace a 36 year old water heater with a tankless system. From the first meeting…read moreto discuss the project, Greg impressed me with his expertise-- warning me off from some pitfalls other plumbers hadn't mentioned and discussing different options for improving the system. As the project went on, his skill and work ethic only became clearer. He came up with creative solutions to help me work within my budget constraints, and when my house's ancient plumbing made new problems, he came by for an additional, unscheduled day and worked long hours to install a new valve that would improve the water flow and heat. The system he installed works great, and I would rate his work five stars for that alone. But for the sheer amount of time and effort he put in (at no additional charge!) to tackle problems left by previous imperfect plumbing and neglect? I'd rate him ten stars out of five if I could. Greg (and second Greg!) did an amazing job with my project. And throughout it all, he was honest, clear, and incredibly diligent about his work. I'd recommend this business for any and all plumbing needs.

I called Greg after doing a little research and he was busy but after looking at the pictures said I could probably do it myself with a couple parts from the hardware store. He told me exactly what to get and exactly what to do, in great detail I might add. After the fix, I turned the water back on and guess what? NO MORE UNDERGROUND LEAK! It cost me $16 at the hardware store. Greg potentially saved me $9484. This guy is now my goto plumber. If I could give him 16 million stars for this review, I would! Really stoked to have an honest plumber to call on that honestly wants to help you, not help themselves!

Unbeknownst to me at the time, our request went out to the plumbing community here in Santa Cruz.
