It only took one phone call to get my small job scheduled and priced. The plumber "Johnny" who arrived (on-time), was courteous and professional. He didn't try to up-sell or high pressure me into anything. The price was fair and work was flawless. I would use this plumber again.

Horrible. Was for installation of a new Kohler R32323-SD-VS Kitchen Faucet and Soap dispenser. When the technician, Devin, said he hadn't installed a faucet that had a sensor before I should have not used Custom Plumbing of Arizona. Before installation the technician mentioned that the shut off valves showed signed of rust and should be replaced. Understanding that we agreed not to touch the shutoff valves and to shutoff the water to the home at the source, which we did. I turned on another sink to relieve the water pressure in the lines. Devin did mention that he did turn the shut off valve off, which I thought we were under the understanding that we were NOT going to touch the shut off values. The sensor worked and water was flowing fine. After Devin finished installing the faucet, everything seemed fine. Water was flowing and the sensor worked. I paid and Devon left. We left and had dinner. Upon our return, water was dripping under the sink and a shutoff valve was broken off. Not only do we have a leak now that needs repair, the faucet doesn't even put out HOT water! I don't know what this company is doing on Angie's List, but I used this site before and trusted the companies that are on here. Now this nice $200 upgrade for our kitchen sink is going to turn into a nightmare.

Horrible, saw I was a senior citizen and in my opinion tried to take my money. First quote $1700 then tried to get me to finance then went to truck and said $1400. So a ball valve is $300???? Really. Said I wasn’t up to code, needed all this stuff. I’m old but not stupid. Got another company and did the work for $800. It was the same company from before. I talked to another company and they said $900.!!!! Oh I needed to replace a 40 gallon they tried to sell me a 50. They need to work on their honesty and ethics.

Let me preface by admitting I am a first time homeowner and some of the fault falls on me for not knowing what to do in the event your sewage pipe collapses. My mistake was not waiting for my insurance adjuster and not getting a 2nd quote. Those mistakes cost me 9k out of pocket. Where I think they are at fault is for overcharging me and intentionally rushing the repairs and making me pay upfront with a promise that they will work with my insurance to get me close to 90% reimbursed. But when it came time to work with my insurance to get the work covered they were very uncooperative with my adjuster. At first ignoring requests for a break down of cost and then they provided 2 different contradictory break downs until finally they just stopped replying to her questions altogether. A third party was sent out by my insurer who estimated the work 6k lower than what I paid and I had a second 3rd party come out and confirm I was overcharged by around 5-6k. Both sources felt the overage was coming from labor charges. In hindsight, it occurred to me that its very questionable that he insisted I pay upfront for labor that hadn't taken place yet. Again that was my bad for paying it but still unprofessional and shady on their part for sure. Don't use this company, it will save you money, time and a headache!

Another company sent by the buyers of my house estimated almost $5000 to 'repair' my sewer pipe. Jessie put camera down entire pipe and made a video. He saw no problems at all. Thank you for being honest, obviously not all companies are. Would recommend.

We have a 69.00 drain, that includes 1 rooter service and a camera inspection, a great value. Please understand, this is a one time offer. We recommended hydrojetting to remedy the drain and you declined the service? Did you call and ask for a discount or a manager or just give us an F rating? I’m concerned because it appears we did nothing wrong, came out provided rooter service and camera for 69.00 and after we recommenced hydrojetting ? We are here to help in a fair and reasonable manner.

I called them mid-afternoon on a Sunday for a persistent leak at this valve. They came out that same day and did a good job - but I thought was greatly overcharged afterwards after getting some casual quotes. But, turns out that their price was in the ball park, but still higher, after getting a professional quote a week later from another company. I am in the midst of getting a third professional quote soon. Anyway - before I was able to get an actual quote - I called their office twice to have them call me about how they determine their pricing. They never called me back - after promising to get back with me. They obviously were just stringing me along, so I looked up their BBB rating ...and it is an 'F' ! (mainly for their customer service), I can't believe Angie's list would have a company with a BBB rating of F...doesn't make sense to me.

This firm originally gave me a window 11-2 (which was critical). After several delays and telling me their driver had a tire blow out, when the employee finally showed up at 6 pm he apologized he was just caught on his last job that turned out bigger than anticipated. He wore no COVID safety equipment; mask, gloves, shoe covers...came into the kitchen turned on my faucet ran it for a minute (no drainage issues as I explained its usually when I plug the other side), he looked under the sink for 1 second didn't touch anything then gave me a peanut butter analogy (several times) of how their basic drain cleaning service they provide for $69 would not do any good, but would need to hydroblast. I asked how would he know that if he hasn't seen any blockage or slow drainage and where was the 'camera' scoping they said they provide. Again the peanut butter analogy was shared. Then I asked how much the hydroblast would cost, he said around $900 but he doesn't have the equipment it would need to be rescheduled (not that I would have hired them to do this service). There was no diagnosis, no camera scoping, no safety for customers well being during this pandemic, they basically lied about why their were late. So I don't know what other's experience was, but this company (or their employee) has absolutely no credibility. It was a total bait and switch they never intended to perform their $69 service and frankly they are putting people's lives at risk. I am not be an alarmist but I have someone in my home that has stage 4 lung cancer and anyone entering a stranger's home should take precautions.

This plumber is no longer company for good reason The peanut butter analogy is a popular analogy for a kitchen line, in any case we would always run the 69.00 drain with a cable through clean out to at least clear the line best we can with a cable, we shouldn’t recommend anything before performing the cable. I’m glad he’[Member Information Removed] not here anymore and he does not reflect how we do business Please call us back because your next drain blockage is on me for FREE!!

Would not recommend this company if you are looking for a professional and reliable company with integrity. An appointment was made with the owner Vincent for the following day. The service tech David failed to show up for the apt. My husband continued to call the company throughout the day as they continued to string him along and lie that the tech was on his way. Vicky with dispatch went as far to say that they were tracking him on GPS and could see he was on our street and should be here shortly. He was NEVER on our street and NEVER showed as we waited outside for him. Not once did this company call to update us as to why the service tech David was not here .We had to constantly call them. I took a day off of work to accommodate this appointment that never took place. I quite honestly don't understand how this company is in business. We chose this company from Angie's list expecting a reputable referral . We will no longer be using Angie's list and encouraging our family and friends to do the same.

The company talked me into doing extensive plumbing when I only called to have a toilet unplugged. They never unplugged the toilet, They did install a water softener that leaks, and worked around my washing machine that is not severely unbalanced and won't wash clothes. I have called and they and have promised to return, stated someone is on the way, given me a time they are coming multiple times a day for several days. So far no one has showed up. It has been almost a week since they first said they would come back. We are extremely unhappy with them

The technician (Johnny) was extremely helpful and had a great positive attitude and and an amazing work ethic. He along with his co-worker, Todd were able to dig in, find the leak, re-route the plumbing in a matter of a few hours. They provided a couple of options and went with the one where it saved us from digging into our concrete water feature. They did a fantastic job, and it was very reasonably priced. They were very professional. I Highly recommend them.
Description of Work: We had a big leak in our main water line coming into the house. Custom plumbing of Az was very courteous and responsive. Understanding the urgency of the situation- with family visiting during the holidays - they sent the technicians immediately.

Michael replaced the water line to the toilet and the fill valve inside the tank, both were full of sand and sediment. Slow fill problem resolved. TOM was able to get a piece of a broken hanger that was jammed deep inside the toilet for what I would say would be for over 10 years! Slow flush finally resolved!!!

**Dishonest Company** Main line drainage clear was suppose to be $69. When the technician arrived he immediately tried to charge $123. The job was to include a camera inspection, which they did- without clearing the line. Obviously nothing could be seen. Yet, Keith, the tech, was convinced, with no evidence at all that the oleanders were growing in the piping and a 5' trench needed to be dug and pipe repaired. This $69 drain clear turned into a $2500.00 job- site unseen. After I reiterated the info above, Keith lowered the amount to $1750.00, a $750.00 reduction in seconds. After I said I was getting a second opinion, Keith the tech, forwarded a jet cleaning offer for approximately $700.00. Obviously an effort to get anything they could, I refused. Did I mention the passed out tattooed guy in the passenger seat of Keith's work van. I hired another plumber who cleared the mainline in seconds for $149.00 and said a camera in an uncleared line is useless and that Custom Plumbing was trying to rip me off.

They never arrived or contacted me for the added work to correct the problem.
Description of Work: Called their service and they performed a rooted service. alleviated the blockage for part of the day. The next day I contacted them again and Josh told me the office will call tomorrow for a camera inspection in sewer pipe. that was 4 days ago. I called Sun to see if they were going to come out. I was told they would be out the next day. They never called or showed up. I haven't been able to use my own toilet for almost a week now and more importantly my mother who is severely affected by this.

chose this plumber due to quote that was given on day of project price went up $275 and half the work was not completed that day, plumber return the following week to finish bathroom fixture that was broken because he said he didn't have a part on the first stop, he also didn't have the part when he arrived and decided that it wouldn't work as originally promised so we would have to go buy a new fixture and he'd install that For us. Work was fine but a 500 quote that was almost 900 and now I have to go buy another item.

I scheduled twice to meet with them to get an estimate on fixing a leaky exterior faucet. The first time, I waited from 4:00 to 5:30 for them to show; my time window was 4:00 to 6:00. I never heard from anyone, so I called the office and was assured they were still coming out. I got a call from them a few minutes after 6:00, saying they would be there at 7:00. By that time, it was going to be dark, and therefore harder to inspect the outdoor faucet. I was irritated they hadn't called earlier, but whatever -- things happen. So I rescheduled for the next morning and was told I'd be the first call; they'd show between 8:00 and 9:00. Well, it's nearly 10:00 as I write this, and I've heard nothing. I'm irritated at having my time wasted. I would not recommend this company.

Was actually called by them when we solicited bids on Angie's List and was told they could meet us from 1 -3 pm. and the technician would call 30 minutes before they were on their way. After they failed to meet that timeline, they called at 3:15 and changed the time window from 4 - 6 pm. They never showed up. I understand professionals are busy. I am a professional, and I am also busy. I arranged to be at home and waited over 5 hours for a service they scheduled. All I ask is that they be upfront with their availability instead of disrespecting a potential customer by not respecting their time. They wasted my time.
