Travis did an excellent job. He did some quick troubleshooting to determine the exact cause of the problem. Once he determined where the leak was occurring, he made a speedy repair. Fortunately he had the parts needed on his truck. I have used Black Mountain Plumbing before and have always been happy with the service.

I called Black Mountain (BM) to have someone come out and replace a faucet set and a toilet stool (both of which I had purchased) in our guest bathroom. They gave me a window of 10 to 2 on Mon., Nov 26. By 3:15 no one had shown up so I called and rescheduled for the next day with a window of 8:30 to 9:30. At precisely 8:30, Solomon arrived to do the work. He was exceptionally courteous and accomplished both tasks very professionally. All ratings would have been A had it not been for the need to reschedule. I will probably use BM in the future.

My tenant turned off the water, then reported the problem to me and I called Black Mountain Plumbing. My husband wanted a plumber that night; but they encouraged us to wait until morning when they could see better and not disturb the tenant and neighbors. They saved us a lot of money by coming in the morning. The water leak turned out to be the irrigation pipe In this economy some companies set aside ethics and concern for their customers to bring in cash. I saw for myself that Black Mountain and Larry were too ethical to take advantage of our stress to make extra money. Larry is professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and reliable. All-in-all, he is an excellent representative of Black Mountain. We will definitely call Larry at Black Mountain when we need a plumber again.
Description of Work: There was a water leak by the meter which later turned out to be the irrigation pipe. Pipe had to be replaced where the leak was and a small section where a couple of old leaks were poorly repaired by the previous owner. Larry was very careful and thorough in his work, I'm sure that area of the plumbing will not be a problem in the future. He also cleaned up the area when he was finished; I learned the hard way that not all plumbers do that.

Again, I was blown away by Black Mountain Plumbing. Great service and price and great customer service. John came out and had known our condo from earlier work for the site and was incredible in his responsiveness and attention to detail. I am really happy that I've found a company I can call on to take care of any of my plumbing needs! Thanks Black Mountain Plumbing!

.They scheduled a 12-2pm window.. At 2:50 I called the office and they contacted their employee and told me he was in route. Around 3pm I received a voice mail messag from the employee that he was 30-45 minutes out. When he finally arrived, he determined the wax ring had a leak and toilet had to be removed. He recommended the rigid connection on the fill line be replaced with a flex hose..He didn't have the correct replacement hose and had to replace the angle stop with one that matched the hose he had. After every thing was back together the leak was cured, but when he left, it was around 5 pm. They need to work on their scheduling and parts stock on their trucks.

Hi Member, Actually we were on for a 10-2 pm window, Travis was running way behind and not able to call out until he did get back to his truck like you said way past your window. We are all very sorry ( Kathy said sorry as well ) its a challenge having hourly not commission employees as they need to stay busy and complete the prior jobs as best we can first. Commission shops have extra guys and " Bid" the jobs much higher to compensate for the lack of actual working hours....we do not. We only carry 3/8" supply lines and angle stops, its very rare the other size is still being used, standard is 3/8". Travis said you needed a new angle stop anyway as yours had a slow bleed by in the valve and if it was rigid I would assume it was over 20+ years old. Again sorry for not doing a better job on informing you we were running behind. We all try our best but sometimes we miss one if the Plumber cant use his phone for any reason or we don't notice on the GPS /schedule we are running behind.Thanks anyway we really do appreciate your business. We also are thankful for this post as it will help up do better in the future. Thanks and God bless, Scott Ferrell

Travis came out and fixed a leak in the copper pipe that fed to our hose bib. It was a very difficult place to repair, as he had to cut a hole in the drywall inside the garage and get at it from the inside. Nonetheless, Travis made quick work of it and did a great job.

Very good, and to open the wall, drain down the house water supply cut out and replace pipe and fittings, solder it all together, charge up the water system and bleed it out as well as check for leaks, check your water pressure and clean up, put tools etc. back in the truck and complete the paperwork in what must have been 1 hour high liability work with less than $15 in wholesale parts is pretty good/fast, glad we were able to be of service....Travis must have said a prayer that it would all go well....he usually does !

Based on Angie's List recommendations, I called Black Mountain Plumbing (BMP) to fix a stopped up drain in our laundry room that was causing the washing machine to flood the floor a couple of times in each wash cycle. I also wanted them to look at some areas where we had had a previous flood, which looked like it came from where the metal pipe from the toilet goes into the wall. (I had previously used another plumber required by our home warranty insurance, who "surprisingly" found nothing - or at least nothing that the insurance would cover.) Solomon from BMP arrived on time and was both friendly and professional. He looked at the leak areas and we discussed possible causes and how to deal with them. Since nothing is currently active he was reluctant to spend my money to, as he put it, "chase the water." He recommended a good flood cleaning and restoration company to address the damages that were caused by the previous bathroom flood. Then, after partly cycling the washing machine several times he diagnosed that there was indeed a blockage (that the other plumber couldn't find) and gave me a quote to unclog it. Turns out that pipe is connected to the shower and toilet in my teenage daughters' bathroom as well, which explains a few things! :-) The washing machine is currently running as I write this, and there is the blissful sound of silence instead of a waterfall. I would highly recommend BMP to anyone. They responded quickly (even though it was not a major emergency), and were both friendly and helpful on the phone and in person. Solomon asked me several times if I had any questions and patiently answered those I did have. Although plumbers are expensive he worked quickly and efficiently and with an Angie's discount I thought the price was reasonable.

Honestly was disappointed. It was pretty clear almost from the beginning that the reason for the visit was to find something that needed doing so they could charge more. The person who came was generally nice enough, and seemed to know what he was doing. But also seemed to be looking only at plumbing things that tend to break or be a problem. He skipped some plumbing, and so I asked him to go back and check it and he said "well, OK if you want..." ... which just seemed so strange...well, yes, I want, that's what I thought I purchased! In the end, he didn't find anything and as he was going through the house, it seemed he sped up as he was going and finding that our plumbing was generally OK so not worth his time. The water heater flush was simply hooking up a hose to the water heater and letting all the water out. Then running more water through. It was also clear I could easily do this, which he confirmed when I asked him. So, all in all, I didn't feel like he had my best interest in mind, and wasn't really truly "inspecting" as "looking for more work". I do have a sense this company is a good one, just feel this "whole house inspection" may not be worth it and/or could be handled better by them.

Well we don't like a B or a C, interesting that this post came 14 months after we were at your home this is my internal response to our team: ----Kreg, I looked into this, she bought a Angieslist big deal for $49 to perform a Whole house inspection and do a water heater flush. She now has documentation and so do we of the brand, size and serial number of her water heater. Dave thoroughly inspected the plumbing system, water,drains, gas lines. Also we tested all plumbing fixtures and checked for function and operable valves and connections.She was in pretty good shape, needed Pressure Reducing Valve , one angle stop replaced and the 7/8" drain hose from air gap to garbage disposal replaced and installed correctly.....The inspection was 12/12/2011, she called to have us do the work ( $337.11 P&L) 12/22/2011 , that's a year ago and why is she upset ?.....I have no idea ! ------------- Our goal as "really good Plumbers with experience" is to honestly evaluate your home's plumbing system for the safety of your home to reduce the risk of plumbing problems or floods in the future. Just Imagine if we were trying to sell you stuff and if we worked on commission, your home did have issues, Hall toilet filled very slow, didn't try and sell work there, no discussion on home warranty service contracts, no suggestion to clean your drains as a maintenance, and no "made up " problems either. Dave has worked for me his entire career and if he looks at something and doesn't think its a big deal it probably isn't, we are looking for things that need corrected or changed, thats absolutly why we are there, but we have knowledge and integrity and won't sell or suggest something you don't need. Sorry you were not completely thrilled by our $49.00 whole house inspection and water heater flush....FYI flushing a water heater wrong ( the glass liner could crack) or if the drain cock breaks or is clogged its a big problem, we as good plumbers not trying to "create" work but do it correctly and still sometimes when you try and drain a water heater the valve won't work or breaks off, we try and use our experience to use or clear a stuck valve and if needed can change the drain valve. We have no idea when booking the inspection of the age or condition of your water heater. If it went real well because it was a good or new water heater thats great for our customer, we are absolutely here to serve you . Blessings to you and yours, Scott the Plumber

I am very impressed. Soloman and Travis came out to repair my water heater with what I thought was approval of my insurance company. When the Insurance company retracted their previous approval (and also offered to reimburse me for paying for the one hour service call) Soloman and Travis informed their supervisor and didn't charge me at all. OK, so I have never worked with a company that could have charged me and would have been reimbursed, but decided not to? Amazing integrity and professionalism! Great company to work with! I will never go anywhere else!

First, Kathy was so very helpful on the phone, getting us a fast and convenient appointment time. She understood we were in a bit of a hurry as we were toward the end of the 17-day period for home inspection after having a bid accepted. Their prices were competitive as well. Larry showed up in the time frame we were given, he was professional, helpful and efficient. He talked me through each of the 3 pipes we looked into with the camera, describing what we were looking for, and what he found. His written summary at the end of the appointment was helpful and complete. One minor thing... I had asked about a DVD recording of the work when booking the job, but the equipment that came out to the house was not able to film one. It ended up being unnecessary, and it did not effect my rating, as Black Mountain Plumbing did a fantastic job accommodating our tight time frame and getting us the pertinent information we needed about the house. I would definitely use their services again without hesitation.

Travis was great and easy to work with. Quickly diagnosed the problem and provided estimate. Had to re-glue elbow joint, which required wait time while glue dried. Instead of sitting around, helped out vacuuming excess water, giving additional insight into our irrigation system and providing recommendation should issue pop up in the future. Very good experience and would definitely recommend Black Mountain Plumbing and Travis again.

I had a toilet leak, and the tank was refilling every 15 minutes or so. I had a similar leak in this toilet about 6 months ago, so I called Black Mountain Plumbing, who did the original repair. We scheduled an appointment. Solomon came out to diagnose the problem. The original leak was the flapper, but this time it was the gasket between the tank and bowl. Solomon gave me the details and estimate for the repairs, but also gave me some estimates for replacing the toilet, depending on the model. I decided to replace it and, after doing some research, selected a model and placed my order with black Mountain Plumbing. When the new toilet came in, they called to schedule an appointment to install it. Travis arrived and checked out the situation and gave me a final estimate for the new toilet and installation. As he was unloading the toilet from his truck, he heard something ?funny? and opened the box to find the toilet was broken. Travis put it back in the truck and took it down to get a replacement. He returned about an hour later and completed the installation, removing the old toilet and putting the new one in its place. From a previous leak in the wax ring, the linoleum flooring had been damage and curled up on the edges. Travis was able to install the toilet such that the previous damage is now invisible. The cost was as originally estimated, which was the cost of the toilet, plus about $30 to buy the toilet for me and about $190 for installation. No charge for the broken toilet issues. They mentioned an Angie?s List discount which took 10% off. Considering the issues that arose, the work was timely and professional. Thanks guys.

All in all, the estimate process went well. The guy from Black Mountain was a nice guy, but I wouldn't bother calling them again. Too high. The guys who did the job were a third of the price and did a good job. I would call them back.
Description of Work: Had a leak in my water inlet pipe between the meter and the house. The guy from Black Mountain was very responsive. He said their leak detection equipment was broken and suggested I have the whole pipe replaced. To make a long story short, his bid was $4250.00 and I got the same job done by another contractor for $1350.00. Whew! I'm sure glad I got more than one estimate.

Response from Black Mountain Plumbing Inc
Thanks for the nice review, the difference in price is due to one of three things. A) Not a licensed and or insured contractor with workmans comp or cash job. B) Different job description, we were bidding to replace your 60+ year old water main per the conversation John had it was your opinion that due to the age of the line it should be replaced ( we agree ), If this very old line was repaired it could be much less but the line will need replaced soon. C) Our estimate was as follows, Sawcut and remove @ 6' to 8' of Asphalt, remove 60' of Ice plant up a very steep hill, then dig a trench 14"-18" deep where the Asphalt and Ice plant were removed. Supply and install 60' of Type "L" copper water line up the steep hill from meter to house with a new 3/4" lead-free full port ball valve at the house connection, test, backfill trench, replace the Ice plant, temporarily backfill removed Asphalt with gravel for access on driveway, return and remove gravel and supply and install Asphalt to match existing. Looks like that was a year ago, if this has been repaired or replaced take the Invoice the from the completed work and you have a VERY good chance that the water Dept. in your area will reimburse you for the extra water that you were charged for as it was leaking, this is sometimes thousands of dollars ! Hope this helps and thanks again ! Scott Ferrell, Blessings to you and yours !

This was the first time I had used Angies List and was extremely pleased, Larry the Plumber was on time, provided a detailed estimate, extremely courteous and provided exceptional service. I had three minor jobs for him to perform and all were completed in a timely and professional manner. Can't say enough about the service and positive experience. Would recommend Black Mountain Plumbing (especailly Larry) to anyone and without a doubt will use them in the future for all my plumbing needs. Great job, Lyle

The office was very helpful in helping us to decide on the best approach for detecting the leak and saving money. I called them 3 or 4 times and they answered all my questions. When we did decide to have them come out, they came the same day. Solomon was our plumber and he was friendly, knowledgable and hard working. He was able to determine the site of the leak which was over 4 feet below the ground. It was a tight space and he did his best to minimize the amount of damage to the landscaping. We were able to see the significant leak in the water main and then Solomon repaired the pipe. Solomon was very patient with questions and worked in an efficient manner.

Overall experience was excellent, work was completed quickly, price was affordable, and Solomon was very professional. After the water was turned back on I had noticed that the kitchen faucet was not working. I called Solomon back and he helped me over the phone in figuring out what the problem was and getting started on fixing it. I will definitely be calling them again for all my plumbing needs.

We give them an A+ for an overall rating - the work is mentioned in the note above.
Description of Work: We always call Black Mountain Plumbing when we need outstanding plumbing services because of our experience with one service person - David Boyer. We needed our old Culligan soft water system to be completely removed and a new one installed. We specifically asked for David Boyer because he has done other work in our home over the past four or five years, and are always very impressed with him. We completely trust his work, him as a person, and he simply does outstanding work. He always responds immediately to any needs that we have, arrives on time, is very professional and does whatever it takes to get the job done. He explains in detail what the job requires, how long it will take, and how much it costs, working with us to give us the best cost-effectiveness possible. We whole-heartedly recommend Black Mountain Plumbing for any of your plumbing needs, and if you ask for David specifically you will get a job well done! AND he cleans up whatever mess is left after the job! You will never call another plumber after using this company!

Thank you very much Member, I met David about ten years ago on a saturday as a few of the guys at church were helping to dig holes and plant about 100 small bushes. He was working hard and with a cheerful heart and thats my kinda guy ! I asked him what he did for a living and also asked him if he wanted to learn Plumbing. He went through the school (A+) and has worked here at BMP for ten years....he is also a good friend. We try very hard to be different and help others and its nice to know we are doing that !

Larry was prompt and professional. He took care of what needed to be done and found me some cheaper options in a couple of cases. He left me with two leak detectors, which I certainly appreciated. He also took the time to go around and check and tighten bathtub faucets and tell me about other items that I might want to consider in the future. It wasn't cheap, coming out to around $325 for about 1.5 hours of work including the 15% Angie's List discount, but he did a good job.
Description of Work: Replaced kitchen faucet that I supplied, two shut off valves and reinstall garbage disposal.

Thanks Member, I have wanted Larry to work for us for a very long time, he is a good fit for our company. We hear a little murmuring about price sometimes and that's very understandable, it cost a fortune to run a Plumbing company with integrity, good service, great staff and still try to make a profit. As the owner of Black Mountain Plumbing Inc.and also the Secretary of the Plumbing, Heating and Cooling Contractors Association of San Diego I am certain of the fact that our prices and or costs are as low as possible and still keep the doors open. It is hard to make a profit with all the overhead that we have......we want to be here in the next 50 years... Thanks, and blessings to you and yours, Thanks for using us ! Scott Ferrell

The plumbing representative, Solomon, was excellent. He explained everything that would happen at every stage of the process. He was able to quickly isolate and diagnose the problem, and provide a reasonable solution. He resolved the issue, and the Meter Box is currently bone dry.
Description of Work: Meter Box at the street was leaking slowly, wasting a lot of water. Problem was on the house side of the Shutoff value, not city side.

Member, Very cool, Solomon is great and he tested into 2nd year in school when he first started....growing up in Scripps Ranch is probably a big help as well as having a great Dad that always had him helping in the garage on cars as a kid.....super good young man ! I knew him for years before we were able to hire him and get him in school ! Thanks and God Bless ! Scott Ferrell

Robert did a great job. He was pleasant and professional, as was everyone I spoke with in the office. When one of my toilets started running again after the repair, Robert came back the next day and fixed it under warranty.
Description of Work: Repaired my gas grill, bath tub faucet and two toilets. Also installed a new valve/hardware in a shower and 3 new shower heads.

We talked to many plumbers about our issue. We weren't sure whether to go tankless or tradtional tank. We felt that John was very informative and helped us make the right decision.
Description of Work: Needed to replace our water heater ASAP. They came to our rescue and did a great job.

You know how you always want to find that plumber that: 1. doesn’t clean you out on the up sell, 2. shows up when he says he's going too, 3. gets stuff done in a quick and professional manner? Yeah. I found him. He works for Black Mountain Plumbing. I discovered that after the most excellent work that the two plumbers that came to re-pipe my house that my back yard irrigation wasn't working. I called up and was given over to one of the plumbers that had come over to my house on Friday. Travis told me he would be there after I got off work and he did. After a quick investigation he found what had happened and set about getting it taken care of. No hassle, no attitude, actually he was very pleasant and was very knowledgeable and explained to me some of the stuff he was doing in making the repairs. I know Black Mountain knows that Travis is a valuable asset; I hope that if you give them your business, you will get to meet him as well. I finally have a top notch optometrist, dentist and now I'm super satisfied with my new pipes, my new water heater and my new top notch plumber. Hopefully I will never have another plumbing problem but if I do I’m calling Black Mountain Plumbing and I'm asking for Travis.
Description of Work: Repaired back yard irrigation line that ran from the front yard under the hose bib.
