Chris came over and installed a garbage disposal and helped me figure out a problem with the electrical outlet for the disposal too. As usual, he was very professional and the price was right. I also stopped in to the office to see if they had an old receipt from last year that I lost. I need it as I'm now selling this particular home. In less than five minutes, I was in and out with the receipt from last year. This company not only provides exceptional service, but is extremely trustworthy as well.

My furnace induction motor blew a fan, of course at night. The service tech (I think his name was Chip) came out immediately, confirmed our diagnosis, and told us he would have to wait until 8AM to get a new motor to replace the one that failed. He was here at 8:20AM with the new motor in hand!!!! Replaced it within 20 minutes, furnace works like a charm. I have dealt with HVAC people over the years and have to say that this was by far the easiest, most professional, and most reasonable pricewise that I have ever experienced. I give them an A+ and cannot recommend them highly enough. Don't waste your time and money going elsewhere, just call Anchorage Plumbing and Heating.

They showed me how to replace my filters, something that the last heating technician never did. Overall I was very happy with the quality and price of service and will use them again. The guy did try to sell me a new garage heater because mine had a crack (something I could not see when he showed me). He mentioned that it was a carbon monoxide threat but the CO reading was 0 after it blasting all day due to our regular furnace being broken. That was a little annoying but he was just doing his job.

. I awoke to water poring from bedroom baseboeard heater.Turned water off & called another plumber I had used before but they couldn't get here until evening (understandable, since, of course, this was Sunday) So I called AP&H who said could be here in 2-21/2 hrs. which they were. Luke,who was professional ,courteous & nice, proceeded to check it out & found problem, reassured me I wasn't going to have to take out a bank loan & went to work. Fast, efficient & niice. Bill was VERY reasonable for what needed to done & on a weekend. Their sticker is now on my boiler so I know who to call when I need help again.

Response from Anchorage Plumbing and Heating
The last time we did work for this customer was October 2nd 2008. It sounds like she may have us confused with someone else. However it sounds like when the problem was discovered whoever it was took care of it. Why would someone wait 6 years and then give a lousy review with a made up date HMMMM ???

I had a furnace inspection completed. Stephen found that the igniter was probably in need of replacement. He did not have one on hand but went and got one.He had everything working, checked, and documented in a reasonable time. He also explained everything as he went. Excellent service... It's why I keep using Anchorage Plumbing and Heating for all of my furnace and other plumbing maintenance.

A non-emergency sink repair. Showed up as promised without a lot of rescheduling drama. Very nice start. Nice guy that seemed to care about the outcome. He coordinated with office a few times as needed. Fixed disposal. Reason for leaking discharge line still remains a mystery but we eliminated some potential possibilities. Upside was that they appear really nice and respect the schedules of others. Service was as promised. Didn't seem to be a clock watcher down to minutes and seconds. They have an hour minimum charge (with no travel included, as I recall). Kudos! Slight downside was that the serviceman seemed a little light on tools and equipment. I needed to provide a wrench for the disposal, a bucket and some rags/paper towels. Not a big deal but I just wondered what would have happened if I didn't have those items handy. I would recommend without reservation.

They roughed in a new shower fixture (there had been a different shower fixture there before). The wall was already open. They also put on new a new fixture for the tub. They took all day to do this. They had to go nak and get a proper tool for installing the faucet handles for the tub. The initial time estimate was 2-3 hrs. I was not there to supervise the work. I called to question the amount of time taken. The manager sad these things happen sometimes. I will never use their services again. I had a different plumber come to do the finish work

Response from Anchorage Plumbing and Heating
We work very hard to make sure that our customers are happy with the service we provide. So we take it very seriously when we get a negative review. When (member name removed) called in she made it sound like a routine call and asked how much it might cost. We said usually if the wall is opened up it takes a couple of hours to replace the shower faucet. She wasn’t going to be there and since she was getting the shower retiled, we needed to know what thickness of the new tile. She said the tile guy would be there. When our tech arrived, no tile guy, and it wasn’t just a shower but also a deck mounted customer supplied tub faucet, and spout. The tub was boxed in with no access to the plumbing, the faucet that she supplied if mounted where the original faucet was mounted, the handles would hit each other. The spout was un accessible and on the deck on the back side of the tub. And the deck was 5 inches thick and surrounded with concrete. Seeing that this work was anything but routine the tech contacted her at least 3 times to keep her abreast of the work that needed to be done to complete this job and that there would be extra expense for the additional work. In addition when we were done the tile guys didn’t understand the faucet height adjustments so we went back and showed them how to adjust them, and did not charge for any of that time. Further, I have never, and would never say to an unhappy customer “these things happen.” I am sorry that she is unhappy and as with any customer, would be happy to work with her to do anything I can to resolve this issue.

During a recent cold snap, our garage heater was inoperative. With all of our heat and water heat devices in the garage, I didn't want to take a chance of freezing up. I called all over Anchorage to schedule an appointment and was literally laughed at and told "good luck". Because of the bitter cold, all of the HVAC businesses were booked up for days. But my call to Anchorage Plumbing & Heating was warmly recieved (pun intended), processed and they dispatched a tech to our home in a timely manor. The technician was straightforward, all business, diagnosed the problem right away, replaced the needed parts and had heat back in the garage within 30 minutes! No horsing around or trying to sell me something that I didn't need or want like some others that I have dealt with in the past. I would highly recommend and will do business with them again - Thank You.

The boiler pipes leading through our hot water baseboard heating system had been punctured when we had nailed a baseboard to the wall with a nail gun and nailed them directly through the pipes behind the wall. The plumber replaced the leaking copper pipes with a specialty plastic piping with a longer warranty than copper. He checked the pipes behind every baseboard I had installed to be assured I hadn't hit the pipes and if I did he replaced those pipes even though they hadn't started leaking yet. He bagged all the debris from cutting open the sheetrock. He was pleasant and told me that the bright and shiny side was I did really good work and I'd spaced everything very evenly and accurately and that many contractors or restoration firms do the same thing I did.. It was a bittersweet compliment which made us all laugh. He was thorough and quick. Anchorage Plumbing and Heating has always been quick to respond and have provided reasonable rates. The plumbers who attend to our needs are always very personable and friendly.

All went well. Guy was proficient and timely as well as explaining certain things that I could watch for and information I can use in the future. All services requested were provided and in a timely manner. I've lived in AK for 40 years, still can't get used to the prices or wages that the industries charge. This is not a negative remark on this company, but all repair outfits in general. I am quite satisfied, at this time, with the work as a whole. Thx/herb

Prompt service and the guy was very knowledgeable. Only took him about 15 or 20 minutes to switch out a part and complete the repair. Because it was a few minutes after 5pm, I was charged time and a half for labor, which is billed in hour increments regardless of how long it takes. Good service but a bit expensive. I was willing to pay to get it fixed as soon as possible, I will use them again.

Jeremy was professional in his attitude and appearance. He seemed to know what he was doing, he had the part he needed for the bathroom and all work was done within an hour. This company has been doing business in Anchorage for a long time and this is the kind of work and the kind of people I would expect from them.
Description of Work: Fixed a bad leak in the crawl space under the house....This was an emergency call on Friday. I had called 2 other plumbers and both told me it would be Monday before they could come out. Jeremy from Anchorage Plumbing was at my house within 45 minutes. He also fixed a leak in the main bathroom.
