I cannot day enough good about Bob Larson; first-even though their guy had a full schedule (6 others ahead of me! ) they still sent a wonderful young man out who fixed the problem. He actually had a book with the pricing in it so we knew what it would be after he took a look. Everyone from the receptionist, to another plumber I spoke to on the phone who was in the office, to the plumber himself were kind. 5 stars for awesomeness and getting to the job!

It's good to have a go-to plumber that you're comfortable with. Bob Larson is definitely that for me. I've had them do various plumbing jobs for me over the past few years and I have found them to be professional and reasonably priced.

Bob Larson Plumbing has done multiple major jobs at my home from Sprinklers and Kids water fountains to an On demand Water Heater with circulatory pump and a Water Purification System. They stand by their work and put the Customer First. They have many good employees that do quality work. One worker stands out his name was Dennis and he was an absolute master of his trade and made sure to have that attention to detail that some of us OCD types must have perfect. I recommend Bob and his team for all your plumbing needs.

The installer was nice. He complained that bathroom floor was not leveled and this would cause problem with toilet being level. He place shim to potentially create leveling. My toilet is seated lop-sided due to over shimming. I complained but no one followed up to correct this issue.

Response from BOB LARSON PLUMBING
We explained to this customer repeatedly that we recommended she get the floor repaired. before we installed the toilet, as the floor was 1 1/2" out of level. She insisted that we install it anyway, then later complained about the shimming. We made 2 return trips, and the customer was either unable or unwilling to understand that the problem is with the floor, not our installation. We don't know what else we could have done.

Response from BOB LARSON PLUMBING
We definitely apologize for the inconvenience. Our plumber got tied up on a previous job, so we rescheduled for the next day. The following day, when he realized he was going to be late again, he left a message with the customers husband, who apparently didn't relate it to the customer. When Wayne finally did call later that evening, to update her on his arrival time, he was informed to cancel the call. We strive to avoid these situations, but hope that our customers recognize that juggling schedules when we don't know exactly what we're walking into for each call, can be very difficult. All we can do is our best. Unfortunately, we can't guarantee perfection.
