Find Nearby Plumbers In Las Vegas, Nevada

Nationwide Plumbing has a deeply polarized review history spanning 2014–2023, with a substantial volume of both glowing praise and severe complaints. Professionalism is the most-mentioned dimension and is heavily dragged down by repeated, credible accounts of rudeness (particularly from a staff member named Chris), no-call-no-shows, confrontational behavior, and dismissive attitudes toward customers — these negative accounts are specific, detailed, and numerous enough to significantly outweigh the positive mentions. Project completion suffers similarly, with multiple reviewers describing abandoned jobs, failed callbacks, work that did not pass inspection, and installations that failed shortly after completion. Pricing drew mixed signals — some reviewers praised fair and transparent pricing while others described what they perceived as price gouging, hidden fees, and fraudulent upselling, resulting in a below-average score. Experience scores slightly higher due to several credible positive accounts of skilled, knowledgeable work, but is offset by reviews describing substandard workmanship, code violations, and misdiagnoses.

• Two reviews posted on the same date (2023-05-04) within 21 minutes of each other use nearly identical phrasing ('professional, courteous', 'went above and beyond', 'highly recommend') with no specific details — these are strongly suspected to be fake or incentivized reviews and were discounted in scoring.
• Several 5-star reviews are generic and lack any specific job details, names, or verifiable context, raising moderate concern about authenticity for a subset of positive reviews.
• A recurring staff member named 'Chris' is cited by name in at least 10 negative reviews across multiple years for rude, dismissive, and unprofessional behavior — this represents a systemic and persistent issue, not isolated incidents.
• Multiple reviews describe the same pattern: work done through home warranty companies, followed by refusal to return for callbacks, no-call-no-shows, and blame placed on the customer — this pattern is consistent and credible across unrelated reviewers.
• One review explicitly alleges that the company lied about EPA disposal laws to charge an extra fee and then collected a scrap recycling payment — this is a serious fraud allegation.
• One review alleges that work failed a city inspection and another company had to be hired to bring the installation up to code — a serious workmanship and integrity concern.
• The most recent reviews (2022–2023) continue to show the same negative patterns seen in older reviews, suggesting no meaningful improvement in service quality over time.
• Review recency note: The majority of reviews are from 2014–2019, with only a handful from 2020–2023. The most recent reviews (2022–2023) are negative, which is weighted more heavily per scoring rules.

This WW Score is based on 52 reviews with HIGH mention counts across all four dimensions, making it statistically reliable; however, the presence of suspected fake positive reviews and a strong, consistent pattern of serious negative experiences means the true service quality is likely at or below the calculated score of 52.1.

This contractor's review profile is deeply divided between strongly positive older reviews and severely negative recent ones. The most recent review (January 2024) describes a no-show emergency call and alleged data-selling to a third party, which is a serious professionalism and trust failure that heavily drags down the professionalism and project completion scores. A second negative review from 2021 describes extreme rudeness and a hang-up mid-conversation. The three positive reviews, all from 2018–2020, describe a responsive, skilled, and friendly contractor named Robert who completed jobs effectively and left the space clean. However, the recency weighting strongly penalizes this profile, as the two most recent data points are both 1-star and describe fundamental failures in reliability and conduct.

• RECENCY CONCERN: The two most recent reviews (2024 and 2021) are both 1-star and describe serious failures. The three positive reviews are all from 2018–2020, making them 4–6 years old. The contractor's current performance appears to have significantly declined.
• SERIOUS MISCONDUCT FLAG: The 2024 review alleges the contractor sold the customer's personal information to a third-party restoration company after a no-show. If accurate, this is an ethical and potentially legal violation that warrants strong consumer caution.
• NO-SHOW ON EMERGENCY CALL: The most recent review explicitly states the contractor promised arrival in 20 minutes for a water emergency and never showed up. This is a critical project completion failure.
• SMALL SAMPLE SIZE: Only 5 reviews total. Scores are based on very limited data and should not be treated as statistically reliable representations of consistent performance.
• POSSIBLE BUSINESS CHANGE: The positive reviews all reference 'Robert' by name. It is possible the business has changed ownership, staff, or operating practices since 2020, which may explain the sharp decline in review quality.

This WW Score has LOW overall reliability due to the small sample size of 5 reviews, a stark performance split between old positive and recent negative reviews, and a serious misconduct allegation in the most recent review that suggests the contractor's current service quality may be substantially worse than historical reviews indicate.

Residential Service Center receives overwhelmingly negative reviews across all four scored dimensions, with professionalism and project completion being the most critically and consistently cited failures. The vast majority of reviewers describe rude, dismissive, and at times abusive office staff and technicians, chronic no-shows, missed appointment windows without notification, and repeated failures to resolve the same issues across multiple visits. Pricing transparency is also a significant concern, with multiple reviewers documenting inflated permit fees, marked-up parts, and charges for work not completed. The few positive data points — primarily praising individual technicians such as Opi, Derwin, and Carlos — are isolated and insufficient to meaningfully offset the overwhelming pattern of failure. The score reflects a contractor that is functionally unreliable across nearly every measurable dimension of service quality.

• STRONG NEGATIVE PATTERN: 38 of 46 reviews are 1-star. The volume and specificity of complaints across professionalism, scheduling, pricing, and completion are consistent and credible — this is not a fake review pattern but a genuine record of systemic failure.
• FAKE REVIEW CONCERN (POSITIVE SIDE): Several 5-star reviews are brief, generic, and lack operational detail (e.g., 'This company was actually okay'). One 5-star review appears to be from a neighbor who hired them independently, not through a warranty company, which may reflect a different service tier. These positive reviews are treated with reduced weight.
• RECENCY NOTE: Reviews span from 2013 to 2020. The most recent reviews (2018–2020) continue to reflect the same systemic issues as older reviews, indicating no meaningful improvement over time. No reviews are present from 2021 or later, so current performance cannot be assessed.
• CONFLICT OF INTEREST FLAG: Multiple reviewers note that Residential Service Center and National Home Warranty share the same address and may be the same entity, creating a structural conflict of interest that may explain why poor performance has not resulted in contract termination.
• DRIVER CONDUCT FLAG: Two separate reviews (2018 and 2019) cite dangerous driving behavior by company vehicles on Las Vegas freeways. While not directly a service quality metric, this reflects on company culture and employee conduct.
• PRICING ABUSE FLAG: Multiple reviewers document permit fees quoted at $175–$350 when actual municipal fees are $50, parts marked up 200–300% over retail, and charges collected for work not performed. This pattern is consistent and specific enough to suggest systemic overcharging.

This WW Score of 18.7 is based on 46 reviews with a HIGH volume of detailed, specific, and independently corroborating negative accounts spanning seven years, and should be considered a highly reliable indicator of poor contractor performance across all measured dimensions.

This review dataset cannot be scored as a WW Score for a contractor/plumber. The reviews are a mixed collection of GNC retail store (supplement/vitamin retailer) reviews and GNC Plumbing service reviews. The retail reviews discuss product selection, return policies, and staff knowledge at physical store locations. The plumbing reviews discuss water heater installation, leak repair, and emergency service. These are fundamentally different businesses with different service models, making aggregation impossible. Additionally, the retail reviews contain significant data quality issues including fake review patterns (multiple 5-star reviews for employee 'Manny' with nearly identical phrasing), empty reviews, and reviews unrelated to plumbing services.

• CRITICAL: Dataset contains mixed business types - GNC retail store reviews and GNC Plumbing service reviews cannot be meaningfully combined into a single score
• FAKE REVIEW PATTERN DETECTED: Multiple reviews (at least 10) from 2018-06-11 praising employee 'Manny' with suspiciously similar language and structure ('Manny helped me out', 'Manny is great', 'Manny was very helpful'). One review explicitly states 'Manny no longer works here so disregard all reviews that mentioned MANNY'
• DATA QUALITY ISSUE: 8 reviews contain no text content (empty reviews with only ratings)
• CATEGORY CONFUSION: Reviews span two distinct business lines - retail supplement sales and plumbing services - making dimensional scoring impossible
• CONFLICTING BUSINESS IDENTITY: Reviews reference both 'GNC' (retail supplement chain) and 'GNC Plumbing' (independent plumbing service), suggesting either data contamination or a business that operates in both sectors
• INCONSISTENT SERVICE DESCRIPTIONS: Retail reviews discuss product exchanges and store policies; plumbing reviews discuss water heaters, leaks, and emergency calls - these cannot be evaluated on the same professionalism/completion dimensions

This dataset cannot produce a reliable WW Score. The reviews conflate two distinct business entities (GNC retail stores and GNC Plumbing services) with fundamentally different service models, and contain significant fake review patterns and data quality issues that prevent meaningful dimensional analysis.

With only 2 reviews available, reliable scoring is not possible. Both reviews praise professionalism (communication, responsiveness, honesty, going above and beyond) and one explicitly commends fair pricing and integrity. However, the sample size is too small to calculate a meaningful WW Score. No reviews mention project completion timelines, follow-through on callbacks, or job delivery details. The reviews are positive but lack the depth and volume needed for confident assessment.

• Insufficient review volume (n=2) — cannot calculate WW Score reliably per Step 4 guidelines
• No data on project completion dimension — critical gap for contractor evaluation
• Both reviews are older than 12 months (most recent from March 2024, oldest from June 2023) — recency is limited
• Reviews are generic in praise but lack specific project details (no mention of actual work performed, timelines, or outcomes)

This analysis cannot produce a trustworthy WW Score due to insufficient review volume (minimum 3 required). Any scoring would be speculative and should not be relied upon for contractor selection.

Insufficient Data — cannot calculate WW Score reliably. Only 2 reviews were analyzed, which falls below the minimum threshold of 3 reviews required for a statistically meaningful WW Score. Both reviews are highly positive and recent (within 12 months), but the sample size is too small to draw reliable conclusions about overall contractor performance. All four dimensions show LIMITED confidence due to minimal mention counts (1–2 mentions each).

• Sample size critically low: only 2 reviews analyzed. Minimum 3 reviews required for reliable scoring.
• Both reviews are 5-star ratings with generic praise language ('cannot recommend enough', 'thrilled', 'highly recommend'). Insufficient detail to verify authenticity.
• Review 2 lacks specificity about actual work performed and uses vague language ('multiple occasions', 'every problem'). Suggests possible generic or template-based review.
• No negative feedback or specific complaints present. While not necessarily indicative of fake reviews, the absence of any critical detail limits confidence.

This analysis cannot produce a reliable WW Score due to insufficient review volume. A minimum of 3 reviews is required; only 2 were provided. Do not rely on any scoring until additional reviews are collected.
