Golden Rule is the best. They do high quality work and don't nickel and dime you. I had issues getting the tub and shower kits from the big box stores, even one getting damaged and Golden Rule took care of everything, even at the last minute.

REALLY appreciated the professionalism and good communication. So many services might be good at the work they do but terrible at getting back to you. Not the case here The men who came were friendly, quick to schedule, followed COVID safety protocols, and always wore the ''booties" to not track dirt in. The left the site very clean and even removed the boxes/trash. These guys will get my first call from now on.

Toilets were fixed. We need plumbers back to fix shower head which needs new transfer part from hand held to overhead shower. Also we need to call Moen to get cartridge replacement to switch in hot water in one tub faucet. They also need to comeback to work in two outside hose bibs since they didn’t have needed parts.

Tim Lasko was excellent in helping plan/schedule the work, and Matt, the installer, was punctual, professional, and a really nice guy. Everybody was extremely friendly, Matt communicated well during the install, and the place was clean (and everything working) when he left. I'd hire them again in an instant.

It went well, and the work was done quickly. Plumber was polite and professional. Surprised he was not wearing a mask or gloves, given CORONA Virus now.

I recently used Golden Rule Plumbing & Contracting for the installation of a new hot water heater. The 20 year old existing system was heating water inconsistemtly and it started to leak. I found Golden Rule on Angie's list and requested a quote from both them and another highly rated plumbing company. Tim from Golden Rule got back to me first and his quote was similar to the other quote. I selected Golden Rule since Tim got back to me first and he was also very responsive to some additional questions I had. The scheduling was a breeze. They scheduled me for the next day (Monday) in the morning. They showed up earlier than planned but communicated with me ahead of time to make sure that worked for our schedule. They work they performed was excellent. They kept everything clean, communicated clearly what they were doing and why and were patient with my questions and even encouraged me to make sure I understood everything. They also moved the system a bit from the original location of the old system to help with access to the fireplace cleanout that is somewhat hidden behind the system. Overall, the experience was very pleasant and I would certainly recommend Golden Rule based on the work they performed. If I ever have another plumbing job, I will certainly reach out to them first!

I phoned for an estimate which I received right away. A few days later scheduled the work. They phoned to let me know they were running about one hour late. When they arrived everythink went smoothly and they were finished in about 90 minutes. Everything was cleaned up.

Can't recommend Golden Rule Plumbing enough. I'll definitely be using them for all of my plumbing needs going forward. 3 years when we moved into our house, we had an occasional sewage smell coming from our powder room. Golden Rule was able to somehow diagnose and determine that it was coming from an uncapped drainage pipe in the wall because they used to have the washer\dryer on the 1st floor (rather than the basement). They capped and resolved that. More recently, I had a leaking pipe in my basement. They fixed it the same day I called. Prices are always reasonable, they are always super polite, and they don't try to sell you on everything else they see in your house while they are there.

Hasn't went well because I called and spoke with Golden Rule twice about coming out to identify what was causing the leak. I called and he was going to give me a call later when he was in the office to give me a date/time to come out. I didn't hear from that day so I called again the next day and he apologized for not calling and told me that he would definitely call me later that day with a confirmation of date and time. I actually laughed and said to him "you said that yesterday" and he said he definitely would give me a call (well that was three days ago and I still haven't heard from him). Two or three times Golden Rule has done work for me and were very professional and the prices were good which is why I continue to call them for services. I honestly was very surprised at the lack of communication from them. If I find a good contractor for any job I like to continue calling them because of their work ethics. After calling twice and speaking with someone who promised to give me a call to set up an appointment and not hearing from them is so very unprofessional. If they didn't want the job they could have just said so and I would have moved on. For the jobs that they did do for me everything was great. I am so disappointed in the way that they handled this last call for service because I've wasted time waiting for them and now I still have to find a reliable plumber. My time is valuable the same as their time. Thank you.
