Nixon's Heating Air Conditioning & Plumbing

Drew N Chelsea R.

Jason came out to give me an estimate on my hot water heater. Chatted with me about the options and what he would do if this was his house. Love the honesty and the availability of Nixon's! Five minutes and I have a plan. Their number is going in my wallet for any other needs.

Thanks!

Don't ever use this place! The office help and the thugs that do the install are rude, rude, rude. They canceled me last minute and put us off for a week.I was told they would start at 8:00 a.m.. They came at 10:30. I had a litter of new born pups and it was snowing and windy where the pups were...right where they were working. I asked them to close the door when they went out the back door to their truck. They never did. They just kept doing it so I had to keep going in the garage and closing it. We are waiting for the final bill and were called to get a few items for the final inspection. It has been 2 weeks since they were done. The office girl called and demanded to close it out since it had been a month. If you want to head but a disjointed company...call them!

We had a water main leak under the driveway and gave Nixon a call, they arrived fast and started right to work to find the source of the problem. Very friendly, and easy to deal with. A great company to call when you need your plumbing problem fixed.

After buying our house we needed to re route some plumbing off our water heater Nixon's come out and did a job so neat and clean and re-routed some plumbing so it would be out of the way. Nice Clean job, and totally cleaned up after the work was done!
I had a new water pressure tank installed through the well company over this summer, the pressure tank failed, (they the well company replaced it took them 5 days to figure it all out and replace the tank) well the pressure tank failed again... Nixon's came out looked at the tank and the next day it was replaced in under a hour! And I did not have to clean up any mess! It was done right with professionalism.
Im very pleased!
I will be calling Nixon's for every plumbing, heating or air-conditioning need that may arise!

Love these guys. Affordable and fast. They are able to fix the things other companies have scratched their heads at. Jason (?) came out to our gym (Elevated Fitness) and fixed a thermostat another company couldn't even figure out, and we weren't price gouged. We have them on a regular maintenance contract now.

If you are looking for someone to do sham work and not guarantee it, set you up for failure so that you can call them to fix the problem again and have them insult you and argue - look no further! Nixon's is your go to!

I unfortunately went with the higher yelp review on a local plumbing place, used Nixon's and am paying for it dearly. But I will leave a Yelp review anyway even though I am skeptical of how useful Yelp reviews are.

True, they did set up a pipe hookup in the yard to connect to an irrigation system that was being installed by a separate company. However, forgot to show the tenants and myself (who were all present that day) where the shut-off valve was. So no big surprise, winter came and in Nov, the pipe busted because the tenants shut off a different valve downstream where they could see one, not realizing they needed to go looking under a stair step to shut the proper one off. So, I called Nixon's and the tech showed us the problem and what SHOULD have been done and since it was winter, he recommended to have the pipe re-evaluated and fixed in the spring. Now that spring is here, called to set up an appointment, but mentioned that we had previously discussed this issue with a manager who gave us an estimate for parts and labor ($300), and that he would make a note that they would cover half the cost for the miscommunication. No problem with that - except when I called, not only was I told it wasn't their problem, but there wasn't going to be anything covered on their end except for half of the first hour of labor ($54) and that it wasn't their fault for my tenants IQ (and coming from who I was talking to, I don't think that person had any right to make that judgement) and that I was more than welcome to try another company.

Given how quickly Doug (the owner) got defensive and denied any responsibility, did not guarantee his work, and was so quick to FIRE me when I was only trying to explain why it WAS partially his and the techs responsibility for the pipe bursting, I am not surprised by the other poor reviews and I am not the only person who thinks this business lacks integrity.

So I will be going to another local business and Nixon's will not even get half of my business to fix their problem that they created. And found out there was another issue in the house that was previously fixed by them before I bought the house, and 1.5yr later, had to be fixed again with the same part which will likely break in another 1.5 years. Job security anyone?

This company was unfortunately recommended to me and I had used them in the past. Recently last year we used Nixon again to install a line to have an irrigation system put in the front and back yard. Initially Nixon was pretty good with communication, work quality was just ok in every experience we had.

So, Nixon installs the line to hook up an irrigation system. There is a valve they installed as a secondary shut off to be used during the winter when sprinklers are not in use. Well, apparently Nixon forgot to mention the secondary shut off. Come November, our new sprinkler system has a line bust. Nixon came out and shut off the valve and stated they would cover half the cost for the replacement when spring arrives.

Now it is spring. When I had spoke to the manager in November he stated he had notated the account and when I call back in the spring everything will be noted and available. Upon calling they apparently have no notation of the discussion, and are only willing to cover half of one hour of labor totaling $50. This is just unacceptable. The owner stated the sprinkler company should be responsible for repairing the damaged line, however I disagree. The sprinkler company demonstrated how to shut off the line they installed. Nixon failed to show us the shut off valve they installed. Oh, I forgot to mention, they installed the shut off valve under one of the stairs leading up to a deck, meaning we have to remove a step to shut the valve off. Doug was more concerned with arguing on the phone and taking no accountability.

Never Again. Apparently integrity within this company is an issue judging from some of the other reviews below.

Apparently according to Doug, we should have rented out to tenants with a higher IQ. Doug was also very quick to tell us to go find a new plumber. Great experience Doug and great attitude. Good thing you only do light blue collar work and are not entrusted with something dangerous.
