Plotke Plumbing

Jose from Plotke did a beautiful job installing my new faucet, he was very punctual and professional. He was very accommodating with all my picky requests. He was great and I would highly recommend Plotke Plumbing to anyone.

Beware of this company. I received 4 bids on a project and their bid was $7000 higher than the closest bid. I would recommend obtaining multiple bids before hiring them.

In speaking with Mario (Manager), all was good in the beginning when he wanted our business. His workers came out to scope the job and gave us a proposal for $8,400 to repair our sewer line by doing a pipe burst. At the time of receiving the proposal, we were in escrow so the cost of the repair was really important for us so the seller could cover the cost. When the home closed and we were ready to scheduled work, Mario was hard to get a touch with for several weeks. When we did get in contact with him he started to have all types of excuses to when he can start work. The last conversation I had with him today (3/12) was that he was not able to do the work for $8,400 but instead, $21,000 because the job was much bigger than he thought.

When questioning him on why he didn't discover this when giving us a proposal and asking what the difference in work is now compared to before, he didn't have an answer.

Plotke put us in a position where we may have to spend more money because they never knew what they were talking about from the very beginning.

What a waste of time.

This place made $700 worth of repairs but I still had a leak after their fixes. They also has a LOT of extra parts and charge a LOT for them. They did not respond to repeated requests for discussion on the topic. I paid them so I guess that's all they care about. But I'm not sure that they added any value to my situation. I think it's only fair that I post about this situation. The only 1 star I've ever posted. It would be nice if people earned their pay.

OMG...this is the worse plumbing company ever. Find another company. They send out apprentices that don't know what they are doing. They waste hours to run up the bill. They don't fix the problem...find a plumber that can actually fix the problem instead of charging you for not fixing the problem. Find a REAL PROFESSIONAL plumbing company. What kind of Bozos, rip off artist are these. I spoke to owner, Len, who was of no help whatsoever. Bill was finally e-mailed to me. They wanted $420 plus $42.30 for the cartridge they replaced and told me they had put in a new valve. Then they couldn't screw two screws in. Took over an hour just for the 2 screws...YIKES....go elsewhere.

Mr Plotke is rolling over in his grave. Mario has sold out and the company is no longer about the customer. Do yourself a favor and find a company that cares about the work they to your home and doesn't nickel and dime you with charges. Most importantly, do your research and find a plumber who actually fixes the problem and stands by their work.
They have lost a customer and I hope you save yourself from a headache as well.

16 years ago when I moved into The Chicken Coop my water pressure was so amazing; you could shower, do laundry, and run the dish washer all at the same time and nothing would faze it. Through the years, the pressure has slowly decreased and has gotten to the point where ""you could barely wash your hair."" I have had various handymen and a few plumbers try to work on it with no success. It's been very frustrating, believe me. So this week I called in a real plumber again and crossed my fingers... Guess what? My water pressure is screaming again! Yes, I showered while the dishwasher and laundry were being done just to test it! YeeHaw, success! It cost me a grand but I spent more than that through the years trying to get it fixed. Thank you Ed from Plotke Plumbing!

Update. Apparently my problem was 2 parts. Plotke plumbing kept working to find my problem and now we are all fixed. Besides being good plumbers and very professional I want to say that every crew I worked with and everyone I talked to in the main office including the owner was so nice and caring. That is a big thing to me!!!
