We needed a leak located at our commercial property ASAP so I called Black Mountain on a Wednesday. They put me in their appointment book for the following day and later on Wednesday someone called me to walk me through the process of leak location. They had concerns about not being able to locate and fix the leak by Friday and they didn't want our issue to continue through the weekend. Due to their concern were willing to referred me to a company that could possibly assist me sooner. The next time we need a plumber I won't hesitate to call Black Mountain, I had a very positive experience with them. Customer service was great!!

I think that they did a very good job but it did seem a little pricey to me. They were good at explaining what needed to happen and why it would cost what it did and they did a good clean up job.

It went very well. They were in and out within a half an hour. Overall, it was a very positive experience. They gave me an estimate and it was right about what they said it would be.

My garbage disposal was broken, and I thought I needed a new one. I was also thinking of replacing the filter under the sink for the icemaker in the refrigerator. The serviceman who came the day after I called (this wasn't an emergency), was able to fix the disposal in about 5 minutes instead of replacing it, and even gave me a special Allen wrench so that I could unjam the disposal myself in the future. So far, so great! However, the company's pricing policy convinced me not to replace the filter. Here's why: for a $30 filter it was going to cost another $150-180 (I don't remember the exact price quoted). They charge $90 for the service call plus an $18.50 service charge. The $90 comes off the first job that they do, and it doesn't spill over into the next job, regardless of how long or short the first job takes. So, there's absolutely no point in saving up a bunch of small plumbing jobs for this company, because you won't save a penny over separate calls. I will use them again for a big plumbing job: the serviceman was both very nice and very knowledgeable about alternatives to the filter we were using, and we will probably eventually go with installing a more expensive but also more versatile kind of filter that we can then replace ourselves. But for a bunch of small plumbing jobs I will continue to use the plumber I was using before.

HELLO,IT IS CRAZY EXPENSIVE TO OPERATE AN HONEST, QUALITY PLUMBING SHOP IN THE USA. ALL OUR EMPLOYEES ARE PAID A FAIR WAGE PLUS INSURANCE WITH OVERHEAD COSTS THE PROFITS ARE LOW. THANKS FOR CHOOSING OUR SHOP WE WANT TO KEEP YOUR BUSINESS FOR YEARS TO COME! FYI : A 20' STICK OF 3/4" TYPE (L) COPPER COST $50 AND IF WE TRIED TO CALCULATE FULL AND TRUCK EXPENSES PER JOB IT WOULD ONLY ADD MORE COST TO THE CUSTOMER TO CALCULATE, VERIFY AND TRACK AND STORE THIS INFORMATION AND COST BREAKDOWN. THIS THEN WOULD LEAD TO DISCUSSIONS ON HOW WE CAME UP WITH THE ADDED TRUCK CHARGE AND DID WE CHARGE FROM OUR SHOP OR FROM THE LAST SERVICE CALL LOCATION AND WHICH ONE IS BOTH FAIR AND PROFITABLE. FOR YOU LIVING SO CLOSE I WOULD ABSOLUTELY AGREE IT IS NOT FAIR BUT IT IS FOR CERTAIN A LESS COMPLICATED OPTION. OVER 8 MILES AWAY FROM OUR SHOP WE TRY TO CHARGE ADDITIONAL FOR THE TRUCK EXPENSE. THANKS WE HOPE TO SERVE YOU AGAIN IN THE FUTURE,GOD BLESS SCOTT FERRELL

They arrived as scheduled; unfortunately, I had also made an appointment to get my carpets cleaned for the same morning. I forgot you can't clean your carpets if the plumber needs to switch-off your water. So, they (BMP) made a quick call to their next appointment and came back to fix my problem afterwards without issues.
Description of Work: The water in my daughter's bathroom shower hadn't worked in weeks... I called Black Mountain Plumbing and made an appointment to replace the valve.

Day 1 - The two man crew (David B and David S) arrived on time and optimistic. They did a video of the main line, but were unable to clear the kitchen drain. After 2 hours, it was clear the machine they brought with them was not up to the task at hand, so they left with a promise to return the next day with a bigger machine. I very much liked the two Davids. They were professional and very open in their communication regarding the problems at hand. Day 2 - Two different young men (Joel and Kevin) arrived. They were much less professional, less confident and more like a couple of junior high kids playing plumber. Lots of giggling and whispering. I found it disconcerting and they certainly didn't make me believe they knew what they were doing. I was disappointed that the original men were not sent back to finish the job. It took another 2-1/2 hours to accomplish the clearing. Before leaving they showed me with a camera where the tree roots were located in our line and strongly advised that I have another company out to 'jet' the lines, and then have the line epoxied to keep the tree roots out. I was satisfied on Day 1, but believe Day 2 would have gone better, and faster, with a more experienced crew. In addition, it's difficult to part with $77.50 per man hour for drain clearing which I think of as unskilled labor.
Description of Work: I had used Black Mountain Plumbing before, so I was confident they would do the work professionally and efficiently. Our project began with 2 blocked kitchen drains - on a double sink. In addition, home owners in Solana Beach were recently advised by the city to 'camera' our main lines out to the street, so I decided to kill 2 birds...

HELLO, THIS IS SCOTT FERRELL (OWNER), JOEL WAS SENT THE SECOND DAY BECAUSE YOU HAD A VERY BAD DRAIN PROBLEM AND HE HAS DOUBLE THE EXPERIENCE. I ACTUALLY PULLED HIM AND KEVIN (AN APPRENTICE ) OFF A JOB TO FOCUS ON CLEARING YOUR DRAIN...AND THEY DID. IT IS TOO BAD YOU HAD A BAD IMPRESSION. FYI YOU WERE ONLY CHARGED FOR ONE GUY ON BOTH DAYS, DRAIN CLEANING IS $90.00 PER HR FOR THE PLUMBER AND $75.00 PER HR ADDITIONAL IF THE JOB CALLS FOR A POWER MACHINE. YOU HAVE A VERY BAD DRAIN AND WILL NOT LAST LONG UNLESS REPAIRED SOON. ALSO ON THE SECOND TRIP THE MEN RAN THE CAMERA DOWN THE DRAIN TO CONFIRM YOUR KITCHEN DRAIN WAS CLEAR, THE SAME MACHINE WAS USED BOTH DAYS ON YOUR KITCHEN LINE ,NOT A BIGGER MACHINE.IT WAS A 2" LINE, A LAGER MACHINE WON'T FIT! YOU HAVE A BAD PROBLEM AND IT COST $$$ TO FIX IT. I STAND BY ALL MY PLUMBERS. ALSO DO TO OUR PRIOR RELATIONSHIP WE TREATED YOU LIKE FAMILY AND I WAS IN CONTACT WITH MY CREW THE WHOLE TIME ON BOTH DAYS. PER YOUR REQUEST AND THE CITY, WE VIDEOED YOUR MAIN LINE TO THE STREET AND FOUND ROOTS,SHOWED THEM TO YOU ,WE ( THE SECOND CREW )THEN USED THE LARGE MACHINE TO CUT OUT THE ROOTS AND CLEAN YOUR MAIN LINE. MAY GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY, W. SCOTT FERRELL CEO/BMP

This seems awfully pricey for such a small repair. We were having other plumbing issues so we asked about what it would take to fix a problem we have been experiencing with toilets that clogged a lot. The guy said that it is probably due to a toy or something way down in the pipes - further than our snake would reach. He told us it would be another $160 to look down the pipe with a deeper snake (but not repair the problem). Again,just seems really pricey to me. I won't be using these guys again.
Description of Work: My shower was leaking because of a worn valve cartridge behind the on/off handle. We called and they told us it would be $90 for the visit, plus another $18 for gas. The $90 would be applied to the repair but the $18 would not. He was at our house a total of 20 minutes and repaired the worn cartridge just fine, but on the bill he itemized the parts and labor as $107, then proceeded to add the $90 and $18 on top. When we asked about it he said that the $90 is an automatic charge and the repair is on top of it.

I found a leak in my water heater and researched Angie's list for plumbers, especially those that installed tankless water heaters. I found Black Mountain. They said they could send someone out to give me an estimate on tankless. I called them back and requested that whoever they sent also drain the old water heater so I could get my water turned back on. The company had only one person who knew about tankless and he was quite backed up that day so he came later than scheduled. However, he was quite helpful once he arrived and we determined that the extra work to install a tankless would not be worth the cost. He called around to try to get a new water heater tank brought to my house that day but it was too late so he arranged to have it done early the next day, first thing. He did drain and remove the old tank that first day. He also gave me the name of a company who does water damage repair and the plumber talked directly with that person to describe the situation. The water heater and plumbing crew arrived the next day and installed the new water heater which is working fine to this day.
Description of Work: I had a leaking water heater and asked for an estimate of getting a tankless system. They gave me that estimate, but I decided to go with a traditional water heater. They drained and removed the old water heater and installed a new one.

Recently we had them come out for some plumbing problems in my home. They were quickly able to link my problems to low water pressure.(This was linked to the installation of the plumbing by the builders when then the home was built.) They fixed the water pressure which helped the function of other items in the household. The workers of Black Mountain are prompt and responsive. The are priced very reasonable and take the time to discuss all options for repair and replacement. I would definitely recommend them to others.

The plumber they sent called to say his previous job finished early, so he was able to come earlier than scheduled (yay!). He was polite, knowledgeable, professional, and replaced all the necessary parts (basically all the "in the tank" parts), so that the toilet works great. I used the company's Angie's List coupon for a $20 discount off the $180 price. I'd hire them again.

A bad welding job created a leak inside a wall when new shower fixtures were installed by another company. The leak created mold and mildew in wall and behind baseboard. I noticed it when a toadstool began to grow out of the carpet! Black Mountain did an excellent job of re-welding. No more leak. Everything is fine!

The installation went well and the new toilet works perfectly. The contractor turned up on time and the price was exactly what we had been quoted. The guy who installed the toilet appeared to be a subcontractor and he really irritated my husband by going on about how he could have got a a new toilet of a different brand much cheaper than we paid at a home improvement store. We were replacing the toilet because a previous contractor had put in a cheap one and it didn't work well. We'd actually done quite a bit of research on choosing our new toilet. So it irritated my husband a lot to listen to this guy.

THANKS FOR CHOOSING BMP. ALL PLUMBERS ARE FULL TIME HOURLY EMPLOYEES, NOT SUBCONTRACTORS OR COMMISSION. THEY ALL ARE VERY INTERESTED IN BEING AS HELPFUL TO OUR CUSTOMERS AS POSSIBLE (SERVE OTHERS) AND IN OUR BUSINESS WE KNOW PRODUCT AND PRICE. SORRY THAT HIS OPINION OR COMMENTS WERE TAKEN WRONG. I AM SURE THAT HE WAS TRYING TO BE HELPFUL. SOMETIMES WE SEE OUR CUSTOMERS BUY THINGS THAT WE HAVE BEEN SEEING PROBLEMS WITH FIRST HAND AND FEEL A DUTY TO SHARE OUR OPINION WITH OUR CUSTOMERS. AFTER ALL, WE HAVE BEEN DOING PLUMBING FULL TIME FOR DECADES. WE TRY TO EXTEND OUR BUYING POWER TO OUR CLIENTS WHEN POSSIBLE, SHOULD YOU CHOOSE TO USE US AGAIN CALL ON A PRICE WITH US SUPPLYING THE PRODUCT. WE WILL TELL THE PLUMBER TO TRY TO BE MORE TACTFUL WHEN TRYING TO BE HELPFUL IN HIS COMMENTS! SCOTT FERRELL, CEO/BMP

The mark of a good company is how they handle problems with customer service. I encountered some difficulty in communications with the plumber sent to the house, but Scott interceded to be of assistance. I'm happy with the work performed, but the process was a bit of a mixed review. I certainly think they try hard to get it right.

When I first called Black Mountain Plumbing, it was because the upstairs toilet was clogged. I spoke with Scott and he gave me several suggestions to see if I could unclog it myself (thus saving $100). Unfortunately, the clog was too severe and I was not able to unclog it. However, I did appreciate that he gave me these suggestions instead of just sending someone out to make a buck. In the end, I decided to replace the toilet (there was a lot of corrosion in the internal mechanism and it never really flushed well even when it was not clogged). John came out and gave me several options. I decided on the Toto Drake. A few days later, John and a helper replaced the toilet (in less than an hour). They removed and disposed of the old toilet. They did a real clean, high quality, and professional job. We have been very happy with the new toilet.
