Joe was able to come out quickly to replace our faucet and the valves under our kitchen sink. He was neat, efficient, friendly, and his price was reasonable.
Joe was great. I called about a rattle in the walls, and he replaced the PRV valve the next day.
Really appreciate the service and fair price. Very nice guy too.
Joe was awesome. I needed a water line installed for a kitchen reno and he did a fantastic job.
Really great price and service, which is a pretty rare combo. We'll definitely be reaching out again if we need a plumber in the future.
I had them install a 40-gal gas water heater. They provided good work at a competitive price.
Joe is an experienced plumber who aims to please. Very competent and amiable.
We use him recently and found him accessible, thorough and professional. We were very impressed nd intend to use him again b I'd called at least 7 different plumbers in the Denver area for a time sensitive plumbing situation (water slowly seeping up under my floor boards) and no one was available.
One of the other plumbers that was fully booked actually gave me Joe's number, saying he'd worked with him before and that he was very trustworthy. Thankfully Joe picked up, said he might have availability but had to check on something.
I'd had a couple places say that already that morning without getting back to me, but Joe called me back right away and was on his way! He showed up even a little earlier than expected and I was still on my way back from an appointment, but I texted and he was extremely understanding and waited for me with a smile. He was very friendly and professional as he investigated the problem, asked all the right questions, and identified the leak.
The actual fix needed in the end was minimal and only required a small part that he happened to have on hand. But instead of rushing he took the time to explain what was wrong and how I could fix and prevent this myself in the future.
He only charged me his minimum service visit fee ($75, pretty standard and fair) and was very pleasant to work with. His business is aptly named, as I can tell right away that Joe is an honest, reliable and knowledgeable guy for all your plumbing needs! Another contractor recommended joe to us when we needed a gas line moved for a new stove.
He was very kind, efficient and the work was high quality. Grateful to have found a good plumber in town ! I'm convinced Joe is an angel! We were undergoing a top-to-bottom reno with tight schedules between the contractor, plumbing, electric, etc..
After our original plumber canceled on us last minute, we were panicking because it was going to set us back another week with our contractor. I reached out to Honest Plumbing with an SOS to help us get the tub in over the weekend before the contractor was scheduled to start on the tile.
Joe was super quick to respond, came within 48 hours, on time when he said he would, and did the job for a great price. Clean work and it looks great! He really knows what he's doing and is fair and honest.
I would recommend Joe/Honest Plumbing to anyone! See photos! Great guys, fair prices, excellent communication. Gave honest recommendations of what may need to be replaced next.
They were courteous, worked quickly and were all around pleasant to work with. Would recommend.
Honest Plumbing stands by their name. Joe was quick, honest, reasonably priced, and did an outstanding job on my pluming problem.
He explained everything and didn't try to just do a quick sale at a high price like some other plumbers. I have full confidence in his good work.
I have a rental unit in Denver and called Honest Plumbing to take a look at a leak coming from the upstairs bathroom. When I called to schedule, Jessica was extremely nice and they could get to my unit quickly.
I asked how much they charge and Jessica said they charge per hour and not per project; she followed up to say they charge a $69 service charge to investigate the problem and then apply that to the future charges should there be any. She also said the technicians have all the parts they need accessible there in their service vehicle.
Josh, the technician shows up within the 2-hour window they provided and found out it was a leaking toilet seal (around the base where the toilet meets the drain). He also suggested he replace the flapper unit inside the toilet.
Relieved that it wasn't a major, in-wall pipe leak, Josh then said it would cost $650 to fix. WHAT! I asked, 'how much do you charge an hour!?' We charge $160 he replied.
If you've ever fixed a toilet ring on a toilet, you'll understand my shock (drain the toilet, two screws take off the toilet, remove the old wax ring and clean the area and put a new wax ring in place). I just checked Home Depot toilet rings $9.89 and flapper kits are $13.97).
For a full time, 'honest plumber' to take over three hours at $160 hour to change a toilet ring and a toilet fill kit is just not honest. I'm sorry, $23 in parts, $625 in labor? Hope this helps should you hear the 'we don't charge per hour' (nonsense since the technician know exactly what they charged per hour).
Low fee to get out there, exceptionally high price to do the work. 100 Stars! We sent him a question, he immediately sent a follow up question that helped clarify our problem.
He was able to come out the following day and fixed not only the ball valve on our sprinkler, but Amazingly was also able to fix our leaking swamp cooler. I don't want another plumbing problem, but looking forward to calling this guy back when i do have one.
I never write reviews but Joe earned this one. He was able to get out the day after I called him.
Got a new shower valve installed quick and for a great price. With these days of everyone being weeks out, he saved my butt on this job! Gotta pile on another 5 star review for Joe and Honest Plumbing.
These guys came out and saved the day back in December when I tried to flush my water heater, not realizing the pressure relief valve had become so corroded that it wouldn't seal back up again. My wife was many months pregnant at the time, so not having hot water wasn't exactly ideal.
However, Joe/Honest Plumbing was able to come the morning I contacted him and get that swapped out. He also helped me diagnose what was wrong with my water heater to begin with, which had nothing to do with not flushing it all those years.
Fast-forward 7 or so months, and it was finally time for a new water heater, and these guys were able to come out with just a few days notice, and get it swapped out in just a few hours. It was affordable, and they swapped out some of the lines running into the water heater because those were so corroded, and made sure to install a drip tray and PVC piping to run the overflow to our floor drain (which I hadn't even thought about).
I still have some unfinished plumbing work to be done in our basement and I will definitely be reaching out to these guys when that time comes. Definitely highly recommended.
These guys installed a gas line in my house for a new gas stove. Communicative, professional, and the most personable home repair folks I have ever ever worked with.
Wow! Extremely satisfied with Joe and Honest Plumbing! I called him on a Friday and he was able to come first thing Sunday morning to repair a hose bibb and install a ball valve. Pricing was very very reasonable, especially for the weekend! I will absolutely be calling Joe again for any future needs! After going to a couple other plumbing companies for estimates to help with water heater replacement/installation on my old house, I came across Honest Plumbing on Yelp.
As any owner of an old home can attest, these jobs are never as straightforward as a simple replacement. Honest Plumbing came in with a fresh perspective, and creative solutions.
They were prompt, professional and within their originally quoted price. What a relief! They also took time to show me what we can do with other areas of improvement for very reasonable prices.
I will be hiring them again soon. Highly recommended! I'm a local contractor in Arvada and Honest Plumbing has completed around 23 successful jobs over the past 6 years for Me.
My client's are always happy with Joes quality and attention to detail. Thanks Joe for the good work in 2018.
Much appreciated. Adam H Note, I didn't have work done by Joe.
He never called back after the multiple times I called. Other reviews sounded great but apparently he isn't taking new customers? Just called to schedule someone to come give me an estimate to replace water line to my swamp cooler (Monday, June 18).
Hours were listed as 7am to 7pm, but no one answer, only an answering machine that told me he was out of town until June 21 and to call back on the 21st. Disappointing.
I'll try someone else. Joe came to take out a leaky garbage disposal.
He was quick, polite, clean, and able to schedule me same day. A week later we had the same problem at a rental property, and again, he was prompt, quick, clean, and polite.
Thanks Joe! Joe was great and really made the process simple, answered all my questions and completed the work within a few days and at a good value, highly recommend! I have now had Joe out to our house twice to do some plumbing work. One job involved replacing some bad solder joints on the sprinkler vacuum valve, and the other involved swapping out my old sump pump for a new unit with battery backup.
I must say that I could not be happier with Joe's quick and clean work, and prices that I felt were extremely fair. For the sump pump job I had purchased the sump pump as well as all the pipe / fittings that I had expected to need, but of course forgot a few items.
Joe went to Home Depot to pick up the missing components, and also grabbed some short lengths of PVC from his house, which will allow me to return several sections that I had purchased. Overall if you are looking for a truly "Honest" plumber, give Joe a call.
The owner, Joe is as good as it gets!!! He's very pleasant, very knowledgeable, very fast and very reasonable. I purchased a high end shower valve and shower head to install myself but it was too complicated for me to install.
I called several plumbers and they all said they had to come out to give me a quote, except Joe he quoted me a price over the phone and he stuck to it. I did have one other plumber come out and they were 3x's the price of Honest Plumbing.
Joe removed to old fixture and installed the new one. It took about 2 hours which I though was very quick given how complex it way.
There was one problem though, after Joe left, I turned it on to show my wife how it worked and when I turned it off, it started to leak. To make a long story short, when I call Joe back, he came right out and in about 15 minutes he too the handle off and found a tiny speck of solder.
After it was removed there was no problem. Joe is better than sliced bread, for plumbing that is :).
We had water leaking from our garage ceiling below our master bathroom on a Saturday. Joe returned my call promptly and was here in an hour...on a Saturday.
He fixed the faucet on the tub. His pricing was very very fair, especially for a weekend.
We highly recommend Joe at Honest Plumbing! Joe was great from start to finish for our tankless water heater installation. Fast response, great communication, open and honest during the diagnosis and estimate, fair and competitive price, and good follow up.
I would highly recommend Joe and team! Our water heater died, and Honest Plumbing was great. They communicated clearly, made an honest and competitive bid, showed up when they said they would, and got the work done quickly and well.
We will definitely call them again. Dec 2019.
Honest Plumbing did a water heater replace & haul-away, and they installed an outdoor hose bib. The water heater install was excellent quality, done professionally, included new expansion tank & gas and water shutoffs.
They left the job site clean (much appreciated). The hose bib required some work in a basement crawl space, again, very good quality work, done quickly.
I would call them again without hesitation. -Rich M.
I called Honest Plumbing 3 times. Morning evening and the following morning with no call backs.
I read all the great reviews and was hoping to do business with this company. I used Bulldog Plumbing and got great service.
Joe is such a nice guy and did a perfect job replacing our water heater on short notice (and on a Sunday). I'd recommend him to anyone! Joes reviews live up to the hype.
Joe came out to repair a couple of gas leaks for me, and replaced a gas regulator. He ran to grab the parts and got it all done on the same day after giving me a very reasonable quote.
I had to have him come back a few days later to take care of a couple of other things more that I wasn't aware of the first time around . Joe once again came in a timely manner and got the job done.
His company is phenomenal, and doesn't try to rip you off like the big companies do. Thank you Joe You're the man! This is a late review, but I wanted to acknowledge that the owner of this company, Joe Gonzales, totally lives up to the name of the firm.
He installed a hot water heater and did some spigot work for me in November. It was a big expenditure for my household so trustworthiness was paramount.
He's very straightforward when it comes to scope of work, price estimates, scheduling, etc. Very good at communicating through phone, text and email.
I really like his simple and direct approach. He's not "salesmany" (and obviously that's a good thing).
Highly recommend. My power vent water heater broke down on a Monday and I had to deal with Sears Home Warranty group to get it replaced.
Dealing with Sears through Cinch Home Services was a complete disaster but through all these frustrating conversations, which lasted 9 days(!), Ronnell was fabulous. He fought for me with these fools, on my behalf during the whole time period.
I will never recommend purchasing a Sears Home Warranty because basically they put up barriers, the whole time, to NOT replace the water heater. Ronnell finally got the water heater and installed it two days before I was told it was going to be replaced.
John did a great job with the installation and Ronnell even came over to make sure all was well with the water heater. I appreciate everything Ronnell and John did to get me the water heater.
9 days without hot water, with my 91 year old mother with me, was a bit hard to deal with. Thank you Ronnell and John!!! Whenever I have work done, they are prompt, professional, and charge reasonable prices.
So far they've added a gas line for my new stove, replaced a water heater, and checked the sump pump in the new house. We were worried that the sump pump was broken and actually hired them to replace it - Joe took a look at it, said that it's not broken and poured water in so we could see that it turns on.
The company name has the word "honest" in it, and surprisingly enough, they actually stick to it! He was timely (early in fact) quoted a good price (and went with the low end of the quote) did great work and did it quickly. No complaints, all positive.
He's a nice guy to boot. We had a great experience with Joe.
I booked over email and had prompt replies. He was on time for the job, and did a great job with a more difficult than normal faucet and disposal install.
He was upfront with cost, and a nice guy. We will use him for repeat jobs.
Oh, and he accepts credit cards and did not seem to mind at all that I used one. We have had work done several times by Joe.
To say he is exceptional is an understatement. His word is golden and he is someone you can trust.
He is fair and quick to respond to emergencies. We've used him for everything from clogs to plumbing upgrades to dishwasher installations.
when friends mention plumbing, we are quick to give them Joe's card. Honest Plumbing is exactly as advertised.
Joe visited on a Saturday and quickly assessed the problem and solution. He clearly explained what was causing my issue and how to fix it.
He worked quickly and cleaned everything up when done. Pricing is very reasonable and well worth it knowing my problem is solved in a quality manner.
I will use this company for all my plumbing projects. Great company, Joe the owner is excellent, he came out in a pinch, fixed the urgent things for a fair price and helped me figure out some next steps without ever giving the feeling that he was trying to upsell me on anything.
Highly recommended. My realtor told me there was a problem with my hot water heater.
I had no idea who to call, someone told her about Joe so she called him. He answered her right away and went and got the job done.
He gave us an estimate and that is what he charged. He is a very nice and honest man.
I would recommend him to anyone. VERY, VERY Satisfied! I had hot water heater problems and call Honest Plumbing on a Sunday and they were here within a couple of hours.
It was just the pilot light, but they checked everything out and found it is in working order. He explained everything and also made sure I could light the pilot on my own.
I would recommend them over and over again. I will be a repeat customer that is for sure!!! As a single Mom, I so appreciate their honesty and help!! Honest plumbing is a great company.
I had a flooding issue in my basement Sam came over on time and took care of the issue. Sam was completely honest with me, he explained everything he was doing to me and showed me the issue with the line.
All around a good experience. I have told my friends and family about honest plumbing and how great they are.
It is nice to know a good and honest plumber.'''.
