Waste Sink Disposer and "No Salt" Water Softener Installation

I had these services performed a few years ago and the plumbing installation was smooth as silk. Plumber was professional, courteous and had everything he needed for expert installation. The Insinkerator and "No Salt" Water Softener were customer supplied items. I would recommend Pete the Plumber for any plumbing installs you require.

Hot water tank and toilet replacement

I hired Pete the Plumber three times for residential service in last few years. Once was for a hot water tank replacement and twice to replace all the toilets to low-flow in two separate houses. My experiences were mixed. They have different types of staff for different types of jobs. The fellow that replaced the hot water tank was very clean. The two different fellows that replaced the toilets were not clean at all. The first individual would remove all the water from the toilet using a paper coffee cup and dump it in the bathroom sink (yuck!). He also used this rag from who knows where to wipe up everything and then wring dry into the bathroom sink (double gross). He was all-around very unsanitary and I would never let him back in my house. The second toilet guy used a wet vac to remove any remaining water from the toilets (nice!), but was a bit sloppy carrying the toilets out of the house over the carpet (some spillage of residual toilet water – yuck!). Is there not a company procedure on replacing toilets so the customer doesn’t have toilet water in their sink or dripping all over their carpets? Anyway, I would absolutely recommend Pete the Plumber for a hot water tank replacement (their price cannot be beat) but not sure I would recommend them for a toilet replacement.

Thank yiou for your comments, and absolutely we have protocol on how to replace a toilet and very much would like to have more information as to what technicians are not following our procedures. Obviously our customer service no matter what division of service needs to be spectacular and our reputation is extremely important to us. I would be happy to discuss this further so do not hesitate to call me at 403-257-1766-Sincerely Jackie Prince-General Manager

install brand new toilets

recently moved to calgary, didn't really know any plumbers, but always saw a van with a blue hulk on it. Decided to give it a try, they provided a quote and estimated the time it would take. The service was great, I did not have to wait all day for them to come, they provided a specific time they would be there and they were there on the nose. The installers were professional and did a great job.

We would never ask someone to pay overtime service unless requested-if you phone during regular hours and our technicians are booked for the day we offer after hours service if you do not want to wait till our next available appointment. I would be happy to discuss with you further if you would like to call the office . General Manager -Jackie Prince.

General plumbing

I have found Pete the Plumber to be generally reliable and not overly expensive. Last time I called, I ended up going with another contractor as the response time would have been too long. I have used them a number of times through the years, and they are fine for routine work.

Pete the Plumber

We had a complete blockage in all of our drains and sewage. The tech arrived quickly and managed to get the drains moving. After he left, we found out the sewage had backed up into the basement. We called the tech back and he was there in about an hour and fixed everything. Only thing is that I wondered if he should have checked for that before he left. We were new to issues like this. He wasn't.
