Outstanding! DeeDee help set up the appointment and Ken and Joel did the work. They were able to come out the same day. Work was done quickly and professional. Ken and Joel answered all my questions as the work progressed. I was very impressed. I originally called for the shower bur before they left I asked about the garbage disposal and they looked at it and also had the same disposal on truck and I was able to get the work done quickly. All work was done after a an estimate was given abd agreed upon - cost did not exceed estimate.

Scheduling was easy and flexible. Scheduler would not provide an estimate or range of cost of services until the plumber arrived and that person would give a quote. Sounds fair at first. Waited a week for the scheduled appointment. The job, very straight forward for a home less than 2 years old. Just needed a professional to come out and connect a faucet to the preinstalled water loop in a laundry room. The sink itself was already installed, so very minimal work for the plumber. He came and wanted to charge $635. for One Hour of worktime. Very smart of Bumble Bee not to quote prices or, give estimates over the phone. Because after a week of waiting, a plumber arrives and chooses to charge that much, they know that they have you backed into the corner to pay. I don't mind paying for work. However, I don't find such a simple procedure to be justified by that price and nor do I care to be gouged. I asked the technician for a breakdown of the pricing and said that he couldn't provide me with one, also he became defensive about us questioning the fees. He was very vague on he computes the pricing and what goes into the determination of the cost. Basically, it is not very transparent and I felt as though he charged us higher prices because he felt like it. We since then, cross referenced online average pricing for equivalent work usually runs around $250-$400. After letting the professional know how disappointed and how unusually high his pricing was, he did provide a $100 off the cost. Total in $532. Still very high for the work and still hard to justify paying that for something so straight forward.

Response from Bumble Bee Plumbing
Hello, I had a hard time finding your appointment at first because the name of the woman we serviced is different than yours. However, I was able to find it by the address and wanted to reach out to you because we are very disappointed to hear of your experience! I would like to address some of the statements you have made, as most are completely correct and I just want to be sure to explain why we have the policies we do. Our dispatcher Craig explained that we've found it in our customers best interest to not give "ballpark" pricing over the phone. Our office staff is not technically experienced enough to diagnose what work may need to be done by a customers description over the phone, and we feel it would be dishonest to give a price without an experienced technician seeing the work. We much prefer to give an upfront price that we can stand by so that there are no surprises. Once a price is given, which is always before any work is started, our customers are under no obligation to have the work completed. We are not offended if you choose to use another company. In this particular case, I would also like to add that this was not as straight toward as it sounds. We had to had to shut down water to install the proper shut-off valves, as there were none existing. We also needed to modify the drain to fit the new sink. These are not straightforward and they require a trained professional with the correct parts to install, which we had on our fully stocked truck in order to save you time and money. You mentioned that you felt backed into a corner to have the work completed because you waited a week to have a service professional out. I would like to clarify that you called on a Friday after 3pm and requested a morning appointment the next week, we offered Monday morning first call and you stated that was too soon. You requested a Saturday appointment, which we then scheduled for you. Upon your request, we would have been happy to schedule an appointment for you any day during that week. You are correct that the technician cannot give an exact breakdown of the price. There is a lot that goes into the pricing that we charge including being able to come out in a fully stocked truck ready to tackle most any problem a customer may be experiencing, the overhead of office staff, tools, machinery, insurance, materials, etc. Additionally, there happens to be a shortage of skilled labor nationwide, and in order to employ the most skilled technicians in the Valley, we need to be able to pay them well and offer benefits so that they can support their families. Our pricing is determined using all of those factors and therefore it is hard to explain the exact breakdown of each service. However, we do go over all pricing and are transparent about what any repairs will cost before beginning. If a customer is looking for the cheapest price in the Valley, you are correct, they can probably find it elsewhere. However we also know we are not the most expensive and we stand by our work, fully warrantying all of our repairs. That being said, I am truly sorry for your experience. If you felt that our technician was less than professional and did not provide you with the level of service you deserve, then we fell short. We strive for all of our customers to have a five-star experience with us and I can see that that did not happen with you. We did leave three voicemails to follow up on the service, and to date have not received a call back yet. We do take any feedback very seriously and if you would like to discuss this with us personally, we would love to have the opportunity to listen to you personally and make things right.

Ken was excellent to work with. Very knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. Took the time to explain/show me how to do certain things in case they were needed in the future. Prices were pretty reasonable...not the cheapest option out there, but you do get what you pay for. I will be hiring them again for any future plumbing needs.

Bumblebee Plumbing provides great customer service and quality results. I have hired them twice for plumbing repairs, and both times I have been very satisfied with everything. I had them replace a water heater, two toilets, several shutoff valves, and more. They are professional, including the use of mobile technology, and they know how to do things right. I will definitely be calling them again whenever I have plumbing work to be done, and I gladly recommend them to anyone.

This was no easy project since I live in a second floor condo. Currently there is no washing machine in place. I had gotten a few comparable bids for the job but Ken made the difference when he assured me he was up to the job. Part of the job required them to dig a three foot hole 7 feet long at the base of my building. They worked hard and non stop all day. Joel and MJ were polite young men and all three got along well all day, despite the 100 plus temperatures. I had no idea the job was going to be so extensive. A camera had to be installed to locate the drain. Which was done in advance to assure me the project could be accomplished in the first place. Dispatchers Craig and Cheyenne kept me informed each time a crew was enroute with an accurate arrival time to my house. Ken was there for the first visit and saw the project through the end. Questions were answered throughout the day and they even helped to document this part of my complete kitchen makeover by taking pictures for me inside the hole they had dug. I won't look anywhere else when the time comes to install the kitchen plumbing. This was a positive experience. Ken, Joel, and MJ made the difference.

Bumble Bee Plumbing -Inc Arizona was great from the first phone conversation with Shianne who was very sweet and understanding. The plumber who came to our house was Ken B, he was fantastic. He quoted us several different options. He never tried to sway us one way or the other. No relentless pressure sales and answered all our questions. Ken does excellent work. He answered all our questions even those that were not pertaining to our water heater. He put the water heater in a pan with a drip line so that we can see if it starts leaking. He was quick, neat, and very courteous. We’ve had other plumbers in our home, and Ken has been the best. If any other plumbing jobs need to be done, we will call “Bumble Bee Plumbing” and request Ken.

Jim Ran cable through overflow cleared line. Water tested good. Removed old trip lever and installed single hole cover at no charge. Lavey sink clogged removed hair from pop up no charge. Jim was very friendly and figured out what needed to be done fairly quick. Over all an A+++ service from calling in and setting up appointment with Kristina to the work performed by Jim. I would highly recommend Bumble Bee plumbing.

Plumbing issue came up suddenly with water seeping from the bottom of both toilets in two separate bathrooms. I connected with Bumble Bee Plumbing through the Home Advisers website. Made contact at 1:50PM and by 3:00PM Ken arrived. Ken walked us through each step he took, letting us know the cost before doing anything. Ken was methodical in solving our problem, he was personable, funny, and clearly knowledgeable. Would definitely use Bumble Bee Plumbing again.

Taking off our kitchen faucet, he showed me the cost of hard water. It damages everything, including pipes. Dan installed our new faucet with new plumbing. He also put all new plumbing under the sink. He was polite, quick and efficient, even including a new basket strainer extra. I highly recommend Dan. He is also very attentive and will treat you right too!
