I needed some sprinkler repairs and we called Efficient Plumbing and he said they could do them. We asked if there were Saturday appointment available to avoid needing to take time off work. They said yes and we arranged for him to come out. While he was here he seemed annoyed about not having more work to do. I was shocked at the bill… Regular price 269.95 and he gave us the bargain price of 239.45. I typically prefer local small businesses because I feel there it is always better to deal with people versus corporations and big business and my parents are small business owners. After this guy gave us the bill, he encouraged us to put a review on Unilocal.Before doing so, I went to Ace to see how much this would have cost. The sprinkler guy at Ace was shocked and showed me the parts t hat were replace totaling less than $ 10! Normally service companies are transparent in their billing. Not this guy. He put the regular price and my fabulously discounted price of $ 239.45. I can’t help but feel taken advantage of. Lesson learned, ask questions up front before you are shocked when handed the bill. UPDATE: This guy was very hurt by my review above and wished I had told him my issues when he handed me the bill. He returned $ 50 to us and was very apologetic. In his defense, he was at my house for 3 hours-ish(including 2 trips to Home Depot and it was a Saturday. He seems like a very nice man just trying to run a business.

This guy is a con-artist in disguise as a good Christian. He will inflate the true price, then tell you he’s going to discount his services by quoting you less making you think you got a deal. He includes unnecessary repairs that aren’t necessary stating that it’s good practice. When his repairs don’t fix the problem, he returns, charges you even more, doesn’t take responsiblity for his failed work and leaves in the name of God and without a guilty conscience. Stay away from this guy unless you want to pay double for your repairs and get taken advantage of by a fake Christian showman. REAL Christians quote you the FAIR price, perform only the repairs required, and gurantee their work under warranty promise without charging you more when it fails. Read the bible dude!

I’m in Highlands Ranch, and had a bathroom sink with a leaky pipe and a toilet that wasn’t flushing right. I found Efficient Plumbing online and gave a call. Brian was very courteous and offered to come over the same day. He showed up about 2 hours later, which was great because I wanted to have the repairs done quickly. He fixed the sink, and showed me where the hard water had caused similar corrosion to the second sink in the bathroom, so I went ahead and replaced them both. There was one minor hiccup when we turned the water back on and there was a little spray coming out of one pipe. It’s not a huge deal, because plumbing projects can have some trial and error. But that showed Brian’s professional approach. He kept the work area very clean, vacuumed it up with a wet/dry vac, and completed the repair very well. After he left, there was no mess, and I didn’t have to do any cleaning up of my own, which is nice compared to some contractors I’ve worked with in the past. All in all, the work was professionally done, my house was kept clean and neat, and Brian was a really nice guy. He treated me with respect, and quoted prices that were fair and reasonable. I’d recommend calling him if you need a plumber.
