Thank you for coming out on a Saturday and coming earlier than you had quoted. I really appreciate the fast service and reasonable rate.

Ani M.
★★☆☆☆

Charges double the rates of any Plumber. No itemized bill. Cancelled last minute and rescheduled. Not reliable and expensive but plumbing work ok.

We called in the morning about our 15-year old broken water heater, and Sugar Bear sent out the plumber later that morning, and the water heater was installed and checked and running by mid -afternoon for a reasonable price. The plumber was personable, professional, and knowledgeable about our brand of water heater. We're so grateful to Sugar Bear.

I used them forfirst time to fix my bathroom / shower faucet. They charged me double the usual plumbing job and the faucet was still leaking but from different corner. When I asked him why it is still leaking , he said that is a different leak and he had to chage me another fee for fixing it. Will never use them again.

I called to get an estimate for a sewer lateral repair and they came out the next day and provided a competitive estimate in less than 24 hours. I appreciate how quickly they were able to get out here and how professional they were.

I shoulda read all the other reviews before hiring Sugar Bear, but I was desperate and they called first. I don't usually write ""meh"" reviews, but I really didn't leave with a great feeling.

First reason: odd dispatch interactions. I talked to one dispatcher in the evening, gave my details, and set a time for a visit the next day. It all seemed very business-like The plumber didn't arrive, so I called back. Apparently there was no record I'd ever previously called. Weird.

Second reason: insistent up selling. I'm sure that the more expensive version of the service *is* more effective. But if we want the cheap version that's worked well in the past...why keep pushing? After the plumber kept pushing for the pricey option after I'd asked him multiple times for the cheap but ok version, I started to feel a bit uncomfortable. We finally did get the cheap version though. Which was good because...

Third reason: $$$$. Snaking a drain on the ground floor cost us $427. That's...a lot more than we paid the last time. Maybe average prices have gone up since the last time we had that pipe snaked, but wow. It was a shock. But we were desperate, as I said. So we paid. We asked an architect friend whether that price seemed reasonable, and he confirmed: definitely more $$$ then he'd accept.

So, hey. Glad our problem is solved. But we're not going to call Sugar Bear ever again.

Will definitely use them again and be referring to friends and family! Thank you! Nice to find a good company! From making the call in the early morning to Lawrence to the dispatch Mia and then Ian.. outstanding turn around time and all so courteous and friendly!!!!

Quick service, but you'll pay big time.
I called yesterday afternoon and they were at my house this morning.
I almost fainted when I heard the charge was over $600 to clear my clogged kitchen sink.
My husband replaced the garbage disposal and pipes under the sink.
A local plumber advised us to pour professional liquid drano down (we followed his instructions and after 2 bottles, the clog remained)
I'm just curious to find out from my husband why it cost us over $600
