Nate's Plumbing

Mitch B.

Do not use this plumber!!! They are apparently motivated by greed rather than the desire to provide a service to the community and they overcharge by three to four times what other competent plumbers charge. Their rates turn out to be about $500/hour for the time involved. They are part of a new class of contractors who don't want to make a living, they want to make a killing, and the public is their prey.

Just awful people to deal with.

Preys on seniors. On 5/27/22 I used Nate's to replace a failed pressure reduction valve at the meter. Jake did the replacement. He worked over 2 hours which included digging. The final charge was $129 service call, $499 for parts and labor, and $52.75 tax for a total of $680.75. I felt this was fair and Jake did a good job. On Sunday, 4/23/23, I discovered that a drain pipe was leaking in my crawl space. I was in somwhat of a panic mode since my house was sold with an inspection to follow the next day and I wanted the problem fixed before the inspection. I called Nate's and agreed to a Sunday service charge of $229. Thomas arrived at 11:55 am and I explained my concerns to him about the inspection. He went into the crawl space, inspected the problem, and quoted me $229 service call and $379 parts and labor. At the time I felt this was high, but was in a bind and thought the job would probably take at least an hour for that price so I agreed to the price. However, Thomas was under the house for about 20 minutes. His written description of the job is ""repair leak on 2 inch combo in crawl space for laundry & k/s"" (kitchen sink). I was shocked when he said he was done, but since I was fretting I was in no mood to argue price which amounted to $229 service call, $379 parts and labor, $46.82 tax, for total of $654.82. $379 for 20 minute fix comes to $1,000 per hour labor even if parts totaled $137, which I doubt. The more I thought about the charge the more I realized that Thomas took advantage of a 77 y.o. senior in a bind. I so wish I had read other similar reviews on Yelp before hand. On Tuesday 4/25, I called Nate's at 9am and asked to speak to the owner. The lady answering the phone, said he was unavailable but she would have him call me. It's now 1:55 pm and no call back. Warning: use Nate's at you own peril and what ever you do stay away from using Thomas.

Nate's Plumbing just completed a water line replacement for us. They were done in just a few hours and their price was good. This was fast, friendly service. I am so pleased! They didn't have to tear up the yard, just used their special boring machine that they own. Becky in the office was so helpful too. Highly recommended for water line replacement!

so my tankless water heater stopped working today. the HVAC company that installed it 18 years ago no longer services water heaters so they gave me Nate's Plumbings number.

Nate himself called me. Then just needed to start mansplaining to me how much tankless water heaters suck. then he moved on to Heat pump water heaters and then... electric cars. At which point I interrupted him and asked him if was a Trump supporter. So you can guess. Yes and he thinks Trump is BRILLIANT.

I probably should have said thanks but no thanks at that point because I love my Prius and unless you are an idiot who still doesn't think that climate change is real, I have some freshly flooded real estate in Florida to sell you.

I told him about my set up and that I had a tempering tank for our tankless water heater that lets us have hot, hot water all winter. I told him about it and how cold the water coming into our house gets ( 48 degrees twice last year). How do I know this? because NATE, I have a temperature gage on our inlet pipe inside. And I know how to read.

Nate exclaimed that water into your house NEVER, ever gets below 55 degrees. I tried to tell him that our pipes aren't 4 feet under the surface but he went on this crazy rant about he has a degree in this and how I don't know anything. I suggested that I should probably hire someone else and then Nate started taunting me on the phone like we were in the fourth grade and said over and over that he would ""never work for me"". then he hung up.

So if you want a know it all, immature, petty jerk to work on your house. oh and the whole, unpatriotic thing by being a Trump supporter on top of that, then please hire Nate. He's very special

They did not even try to diagnose the water over use issue at my apartment as they didn't even enter. They said a new pipe from meter to apartment was needed.

I scheduled another plumber who actually diagnosed the problem, shut off the water inside to see if the meter was still spinning. Nope meter stopped and the 2nd honest plumber found it was a running toilet and fixed it for $250.

I was shocked by my bill. The plumbers from Nate's were here for about five minutes and the bill was almost $350. I talk to their office and they refunded me a measly $20. I have read other reviews about Nate's and and people saying that they feel like they were totally ripped off. That's exactly how I feel. I would avoid this company like the plague. There's absolutely no relationship between the work they did and what they charge me. Stay clear of them. This company is bad news

Terrible. Like most contractors in small towns. These guys have made a living taking people money who are none the wiser. They destroyed my sink when I called them to fix it. And when I called them to come fix their repair they refuse both the work or a refund. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

We had a coupling from the main water line going into our house blow - on Saturday July 3rd - yep, Fourth of July weekend. I called five other plumbers- all answering services telling me that someone would contact me on Tuesday. Not going to happen. My neighbor recommended Nate's Plumbing and they were here within an hour, and done within an hour. Nice folks, great service and explained everything. Our new plumber for sure! Thanks folks!!!

I've had the misfortune of having to deal with these folks both as a customer, and with THEM as customers at my business, and both were fairly unpleasant. I had to use their plumbing services as point of contact for my grandparents, and it was an expensive experience--granted, it did not come out of MY pocket, but I don't want to feel like my grandparents are being ripped off. After receiving their estimate for coming to look at the problem and performing a small part of the repair, we promptly switched to another local, small plumbing business, and received reasonably priced service without the condescension. Lastly, I will share that the owners of this company are complete 'Karens'. They came into my place of business about a week ago, demanding immediate service, complaining of the extra COVID-19 precautions we were taking to keep our customers safe, and threatening to play the race card at me, of all the ridiculous things to complain about. (This doesn't have any bearing on the quality and affordability of their business, of course, but in case you were wondering about the type of people you'll be dealing with...) I happened to recognize their name from dealing with their plumbing business, and it prompted me to post this review. I hope they never darken my door again as a customer, and I will DEFINITELY be returning that favor.

My elder father-in-law was in need of help with his kitchen sink minor issue. Since I did not have time to go there, I suggested Nate's plumbing . Well that was a mistake.... He was told that when the plumber gets there, he will discuss the cost BEFORE the start of the job. That never happed. The main issue was just a simple clogged sink. And since the disposal was over 15 years old, he decided to change it. My father in-law already had the part there for him. For 1.5 hour of work not the cost of the disposal he was charged $450. I thought he was kidding. I am so angry for recommending Nate's plumbing. I think I will report him to BBB for taking an advantage of elder. Never again.... absolutely dishonest..... DO NOT USE HIM.
