Recommended Customer Reviews
Shu-Hsien C.Great service, but work hard and charge hard as well. Quotes are always under.
For the labor, they charge prep time, clean up time, work time, and wait time (waiting for water turning on, waiting for inspector....) as well. I could understand that the plumber didn't want to wet my CONCRETE BASEMENT floor, but it costs me another 10 minutes of labor to wait until the water doesn't come out from the pipe anymore.
The coordination is poor. The plumber didn't show at the first appointment.
The material is good quality but three, four times more expansive than the most expansive you can find at home centers. Just like other reviews mentioned.
I couldn't be happier with the service we received from Norblom. They were fast, nice, responsive, reasonably priced, and professional. Moreover, they were able to send someone to our condo within a few days. We had our awful Ikea faucet replaced. They charged time + material; the first hour is more expensive, I wanna say something like ~$200. The next hour is a teeny bit cheaper, and they charge by the 15 minutes. No silly charges for coming here and no silly diagnostic/pricing fees.
They even recommended good hardware/fixtures - basically told me to stick to Delta, Moen, and Kohler.
*** Update *** Norblom (Kurt to be specific) has been by our place multiple times. He has changed multiple fixtures for us (shower, bathroom sink, kitchen, etc), and he has also replaced a water line to the fridge ice maker. Each experience has been great. I can't say enough about how awesome this company is.
Refused to come out and check their work after newly installed pipes continued to leak. No follow up call from manager, nothing. Never again.
P.S. Mc Quillan Bros. Plumbing were able to fix it just fine. This ""manager"" at Norblum can say all he wants in his long reply, he wasn't there in the office when I called, and he wasn't at my house, so go to someone who backs up their work and sends someone out to check on it if there is an issue.
Called Norblum yesterday afternoon to have them come out and look at my upstairs tub drain that wasn't working - drained as if through a pinhole. They were able to schedule me for the following day at 2 pm. They provided text and phone call reminders which were great.
Today they were great about contacting me with updates on their arrival. Arrived at 2:40 pm and he came right in and took a look. My biggest fear was a previous quote I got for $900+ to fix from a different company. However, Norblum was able to review the situation and estimate it would take him less than an hour to fix. All told it would be around $250.
He was done in 45 min and was still able to fill the tub up to make sure there weren't any leaks. And it all came in at their time estimate. I couldn't believe it! Now our tub drains normally AND it was a fraction of a previous quote.
Norblum will be my sole plumber provider from now on!
If you ""request a quote"" I think you would get a quote in 30 minutes as it states. I requested a quote yesterday at 2:45. I still do not have a quote.

Eek! Methinks not.
Norblom Plumbing charges Labor and Materials.
Their Labor rates are ""average"". I was quoted over the phone 1-2 hours of labor. It ended up taking my plumber 3H 15 minutes. They charge $47 every 15 minutes. So I was not very happy about that, it seemed very much like a bait and switch.
What really upset me was the amount they charge for materials.
I was charged $303 for $70 worth of materials.
$82 for 12'-0"" of 3/8"" copper tubing..... that's an insane markup that should cost $12-$20 not $81!
It was like that for every single item they billed for materials. Look somewhere else for fair plumbing work.
Leanne O.Called for service to repair leaking toilet shutoff and they came next business day. They kept me informed of ETA, and Jake was very prompt, professional and helpful. He gave suggestions on repairs to a couple of other minor issues I asked him to look at while he was here. I'll call them for all of my future plumbing needs! Very reasonable pricing.
Super fast, very friendly, reasonably priced. We had a clogged sink that was beyond my ability to snake and repair myself, and contacted Norblom at about 9:30 pm when I gave up. They had staff out by noon the next day who were able to address the problem without much fuss.
We've had Norblom to our home several times and each time we received awesome service and nice, polite technicians, including the scheduler. They are our #1 go-to next time we have any plumbing issues.
We have had Norblom out a few times and it depends on who comes out. If you find a good plumber maybe you can request them specifically? The office person/scheduler is always really polite.
