When Archie Lanyon became a registered Master Plumber in 1916, he laid the groundwork for a legacy. Archie's three sons embraced the plumbing trade. Steve, the grandson, and Jesse, the great-grandson, have continued the family legacy into the 21st century, adhering to Archie's principles while becoming a full-service contractor.
In 1954, Charles Lanyon, son of Archie, started Lanyon Plumbing and Heating after relocating to Wheat Ridge. In 1986, Steve, the son of Charles, initiated Blue Sky Plumbing & Heating, expanding the family's service area to Denver and surrounding front-range locales. Today, Steve works just a few blocks from the office alongside his son, Jesse Lanyon. The business has changed significantly since the Lanyons began, but their focus on quality and customer satisfaction is just as vital now as it was in 1916.
I take pride in being a 4th Generation Colorado Master Plumber and feel fortunate to uphold this legacy of delivering valuable services to the amazing residents of the Denver Metro region. Growing up in this business, my father taught me the importance of the ""Golden Rule,"" which guides our company every day. To me, my employees and our loyal customers are like family. Blue Sky Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electric focuses on creating long-term relationships with our clients. Thank you for choosing us for your next home service need; you can trust Blue Sky!

Recommended Customer Reviews
Based on Yelp alone, Blue Sky was not on our list of plumbers to call. But our first choice (Zane) was booked solid for weeks and after I talked to him about what needed replacing they recommended Blue Sky. We'd already gotten one estimate from another company and it was over $3000. Our house is really small and our home owners insurance person and the other plumber agreed our first quote was pretty high.
I'm really happy that the other plumber recommended Blue Sky!!! We needed our entire gas pipe system replaced and this was just two months after buying our home. They were always polite, professional, and prompt. It's hard to figure out who to trust when it comes to your home and money but I feel we got lucky and we won't have to worry about looking for a plumber in the future!
Thanks Blue Sky!
Andy G.I have used Blue Sky at multiple properties for both plumbing and heating (boiler) work. They have always proven to be reliable and their work has never had a problem. While they are not cheap, you do get what you pay for. Thanksgiving 2013 I had the thermoucouple go out of my furnace. I had a tech there within an hour and it was repaired in less than 30 minutes. Good communication and professional attitude.
It would take an hour to say what a horrible experience we had but they seem to find things wrong no one else can see and it is always VERY expensive..if there were a MINUS FIVE rating I would give it to this so called""family business"" BEWARE al g
Blue Sky successfully repaired a swamp cooler at a rental property I own for $600 in the spring of 2013. Cost seemed high, but it is an older unit. Warranty for 1 year with requirement that I use Blue Sky for start up/shutdown, which was also fine.
Fast-forward to October 2013: Contacted Blue Sky for the shutdown, and was informed that the cost would be $200.
$200 for a swamp cooler shut down, when other vendors offered $75-$100?!? Pass.
Tried to negotiate with the company, asking for a furnace tune up or something along those lines to be included free of charge...did everything possible to maintain business with Blue Sky. No dice.
Sorry Blue Sky, but I'm not interested in overpaying for a routine service. Nor dealing with any company that refuses to negotiate with what could have been a regular customer. My recommendation: find a vendor with more flexibility and more business sense.
EDIT post owner response: Kudos to Mike for responding. However, my comments stand. The review above is based on multiple attempts to negotiate price,. I have no intention of using Blue Sky again, regardless of my ""threatening negative review"" yielding a price concession. I don't care what you charge others--I care what you charge me.
Your response falls apart on multiple fallacies. Besides, if you really want to see what a threatening review looks like, check out the other negative responses to your business, which seem to be strangely relegated to the ""not helpful"" section of Yelp...I wonder why that is...almost as if someone is paying for them not to be featured.
Grace W.We have used Blue Sky for years for clogged drains, misfiring furnance and various and sundry other plumbing issues. Most recently had a bathroom sink DIY plumbing job gone wrong (started with dropping two AA batteries down the sink and ended with lots of leaks in places we hadn't even touched and multiple trips to Home Depot...if you have done any home plumbing you know what I mean)
Called Blue Sky, scheduled an appointment (the soonest one I could get....my husband and I were sharing a bathroom with 3girls). Anyway, Darryl showed up at the beginning of the 2 hour window, fixed us up, charged a reasonable price and wa on his way.
We used a yelp deal and saved 20 bucks....great experience, highly recommend
This company shouldn't be in business! They do not stand behind their work, they are unprofessional and they are borderline crooks! Prior to moving into our home, Blue Sky certified their work on the heater and AC (in writing), but when it came to turn on the heat, there was no heat. When I called them to let them know that something was wrong, the manager said that he certified the work done on THAT DAY and that it was working the day he certified the work, but he can't vouch for any other day thereafter. WHAT?!?! He refused to come out to fix it without us paying him.
Then, Blue Sky also installed a new AC unit prior to us moving into the house. The unit hasn't been working this summer and so they came out at 2PM to assess the problem, then said they couldn't work because it was too hot in the attic and they normally schedule these types of services first thing in the AM because it is a health hazard to work in extreme heat... then, why didn't they schedule the appointment in the AM? Aren't they the ""professionals"" and shouldn't they know better than to schedule an appointment that requires attic work during the hottest part of the day? They charged me a visit fee for less than 15 min visit and were going to charge me again for them to reschedule and actually do their assessment. The manager said that he can't control the weather and he's sorry for the inconvenience but he'd have to charge me a separate dispatch fee for them to do their full assessment! I think not!!!
The swamp cooler was not working. I called and made an appointment with Blue Sky and another company (as it's hot and need a solution fast, the first one wins). The other company showed up this morning and didn't feel safe about getting a 2 story roof and wouldn't do the job (and then actually said they won't charge for the service call).
Blue Sky called and said they have someone who can come earlier. I told them it's a 2 story Dutch Colonial w/ a steep roof. They confirmed it wasn't a problem and have a 24 foot ladder in the truck. The technician came, assesed it (was very nice to the dogs) and had a replancement pump with him to fix it immediately. It's going to be close to 100 degrees today and our swamp cooler now works great!
Highly recommend this company and Chris was outstanding!!
I completely disagree with the other reviewer, Bret T. The staff are incredibly respectful, timely, and helpful. In fact, the point I want to make is that in process of receiving service, there was a miscommunication between myself as the consumer, the dispatcher, and the technician. However, Blue Sky went above and beyond to make sure that they accounted for the problem and were very gracious about it. I definitely recommend working with someone that has integrity, and I can definitely say that Blue Sky has that.
On June 19, 2013, I discovered that my air conditioning system was not cooling at all. I called Blue Sky because I had used them previously. The service technician who came to my house on June 21, 2013 (Daniel) reported that the entire air conditioning system was broken, and I needed an entirely new system. Cost: $3,000-4,000. The Blue Sky dispatcher was supposed to call me to set up a new appointment, but in fact no one ever called me from Blue Sky.
I did not believe this diagnosis. It seemed shoddy and irresponsible. How could a reputable manufacturer like Lennox sell a product that was completely worthless after only 8 years?! I was suspicious that the service technician did not even examine what was happening in my furnace room and could not explain to me over the phone what went wrong with my system.
I called my local Lennox dealer. They fixed the entire system for $708.00, and it works great!
I saved myself $2,000 by not trusting Blue Sky.
If you want to contact me, I will show you the two invoices, including the shoddy and irresponsible diagnosis that Daniel wrote on my invoice. I am so angry. I feel this type of poor service should be a crime.
Lisa L.I have used Blue Sky for 6-7 years. I have a lot of rental properties and they have always done a great job. I trust them to go into tenants homes and I know that they will be straight with me about what needs to be done. They have saved me a lot of headaches over the years and they are a great company to work with.
