Hear From Our Happy Customers

Where Quality Meets Trust
    "Very friendly and knowledgeable."
    We went with them because we were able to get an exact quote beforehand that wouldn't change- which was more reassuring than the other quotes
    - Anne R.
    "Jack was highly knowledgeable and explained all aspects of the job in great detail."
    Jack was highly knowledgeable and explained all aspects of the job in great detail. He also was very patient with all of our questions and answered them in terms we understood.
    - Chuck S.
    "I want to commend Big Blue's leadership in building a strong and cohesive team."
    As a property manager and owner, it is seldom we cross paths with a company that demonstrates the care and dedication your crew showed when our water heater for a 22-unit building gave up only days before the scheduled replacement.
    - Della G.
    "5-Star out of 5 Plumbing company."
    They arrived, performed critical 70-year-old piping repair buried below numerous feet of concrete, and cleaning up perfect in a day.
    - Kevin D.
    "Aboslutely A+"
    Our hot water heater kicked the bucket, and we woke up to nothing but freezing water to wash up the next morning. Starting from our phone call to Lisa the receptionist ("How can I make you smile") through Giovanni Arredondo's inspection and he and Ruben Barron's installation of a new hot water heater and removal of the old unit, we had the pleasure of dealing with a service provider that was extraordinarily friendly, competent, responsive, and professional. We had hot showers by the end of the day, and we will never consider another plumber than Big Blue. Absolutely A+.
    - John M
    "Honest and caring service."
    Thank you to Big Blue Plumbing for employing people like Nick.
    - Alicia and Rich
    "Big Blue showed up—EARLY and gave me a quote within minutes on the spot."
    Service was prompt and on-time. It's shocking that I have to call that out but you'd be surprised how many other companies say they'll come out—then don't, say they'll send a quote—then don't.
    - Anthony G.
    "Nick from Big Blue diagnosed the problem and ordered the replacement part in no time."
    Very knowledgeable and ordered the replacement part quickly so my tenant can have heat once again. Called a bunch of different companies but none of them work on hydronic air handlers. Highly recommend them for hydronic heating
    - Robert C.
