Thought I would write this review because these guys (or maybe one guy, Mark) did a great job for me. I apologize for this long review but I feel like it is necessary to fully explain the situation. My wife and I were out of town on we got a frantic phone call on Sunday from our daughter who was home alone. She was panicking about the sprinkler system main feed line and antiphon valve blowing up and water was shooting 12 feet into the air. Luckily, I told her where my big, T-bar wrench was and to call the neighbor over to help her turn off the main water from the street. She and the neighbor were able to do this, but my sprinkler main feed is directly connected to the main line from the street so when they turned the water off, she also had no water feeding the house.
So I told her to use the yellow pages and call any emergency plumber to come cap off the pipe and to then turn the main water back on.....I would do the pernament repairs myself when I got home. She called four plumbers and none were answering so she left voicemail messages with all. Mark, from Sun Valley Plumbing, called back in about 45 minutes and came over. When he arrived I asked to speak with him via cell phone and he told me what he saw and I explain to him how the sprinkler system was hooked directly to the main water feed. So I asked him to just cap off the broken pipe and I would do the repairs later. I also asked him to turn the main valve back on when he was done with the repairs so my daughter would have water in the house again. He said "no problem" and fixed the problem within 20 minutes (so says my daughter). And he only charged us $150 for this Sunday, emergency call. And he took my wife's credit card, even though my wife was with me, because my daughter had no money in her bank account or her checking account to pay him with.
When I got home, I saw what he did and he did exactly what I told him to do and he did it expertly. He even did it in such a way that I could easily make the repairs later.
So the purpose of this review is to tell you that sometimes you get lucky and get superior service and superior workmanship from professional trade people these days! read more
