Had leak around base of my toilet.  First plumber I called wanted $125 to fix it, but never showed up.  Then I called Falcon Plumbing who wouldn't tell me the price over the phone, but did tell me it would be a $75 service call fee for coming out.  The man that came out and inspected my bathroom gave a price of $318.  I declined.  The third plumber I called came out and tightened the base of the toilet, tightened the bolts and my problem was fixed.  He didn't want to charge me, but I did give him $75.  Warning to the public on Falcon...these guys work on commission and the more they charge the more they make.  I called the office about this and Wendy said she will tell the manager to contact me.   No one has called me back.
Response from Falcon Plumbing

"In response to your review, during the time we went to your residence, my daughter had a miscarriage and needed emergency surgery. I was unable to be at the office to give Ray the information to speak with you. Ray and I have tried at least ten times to get in touch with you, with no success. To be fair to the customers, prices cannot be given over the phone without knowing exactly what needs to be done. As you can see, Falcon Plumbing employees are loyal and trustworthy, thus the refusal of him to do the work on the side as you requested. I have given you my personal cell number and look forward to hearing from you. Wendy Visschers, President"

We'll this is a hard one for me because the work was performed dutifully and well but the short answer is way too expensive. I was expecting the plumber to quote me a lesser price. Falcons pricing is so al la carte that you get nickeled and dimed for everything. It was a Saturday so I paid for what I had to have done at their regular price because I was in a bind. I can't afford Falcon plumbing and will turn to their competitors with much more reasonable pricing structure. What I don't understand is with such high prices I had to put off work, hot water heater, replacement of other faucets, and other plumbing jobs. One word, overpriced!
Response from Falcon Plumbing

"Falcon Plumbing scheduled an appointment on Saturday per your request. The technician arrived at your house at the time requested, and performed the tasks that you asked to be completed. After our technician reviewed the work that needed to be done, he quoted you prices for the work prior to starting. He also advised you of a few other things that needed to be replaced, so that the installation of the parts you supplied would work properly after they were installed. After the technician got the okay to do the work at the prices that were quoted, the work was completed. If you did not agree with the prices given, you should have refused the technician to do the work at that time. Also, the invoice was signed for the acceptance of work performed agreeing to the completion and prices. The technician informed me that as a courtesy for the amount of work you were having done, he performed extra work at no charge. Falcon Plumbing strives to make sure that the Quality, Responsiveness, Punctuality, and Professionalism are above and beyond. Falcon Plumbing makes every effort, to leave every customer a satisfied one."

Representative from Falcon (Stevan) came at 3:45 pm to fix the leaking spout. He repaired the valve and reset the hot and cold so that they worked properly. This isn't the first time I've used Falcon nor will it be the last. Planning on remodeling my bathrooms this summer and I will contact Falcon again. It's always good to find a company that you can trust that does the job correctly.

He gave honest advice and was clearly very knowledgeable about plumbing issues.  Instead of selling me on work, he explained that re-piping probably wasn't necessary, that the main issue was the use of plastic v. copper fittings.  This company has a warranty and seems very responsive, which may be better than a random plumber who will not return if a mistake was made and you end up paying for a second plumber.  Their price reflects this, but is not out of line either.
I had a 10am appointment, and based on my past experiences with service personnel, I asked if they could please call me if they would be more than an hour late.  Surprisingly, I was called at 9:15 to advise he'd be there by noon.  And he was there on time!  Wow!
So while I'm not having anything done now, I know who to call to have things done properly.  I really appreciate the expert advice I received and am impressed how he explained the way they do things the proper way, without shortcuts.

I called in the morning about 9:00 AM and was told they would be here between 11:00 AM and 1:00 PM.  The  man came a little before noon.  Our call was mainly regarding a problem with a toilet.  He fixed that by completely remounting it for $315.00 less the $25 Angie?s discount.

We then asked him to take a look at a dripping problem we had with a shower.  He tried to replace the cartridge but could not so he said to fix it would cost $515.00 if we purchased the required valve.  So we went to Home Depot and got what we were told was the best valve for $143.38.

In order to replace the valve he would have to remove a portion of the drywall in the garage to get access to the back side of the valve.  I don't remember if he said then that he was not going to be able to replace that drywall or not though.  It turns out he could not, so we are now faced with the expense of getting someone else to do that in the future.

The valve was then replaced and we signed the ticket thinking it was completed.  But when we took our first showers it was evident that there was a problem with the way the hot and cold was regulated.  So we called and asked him to come back and see if it could be fixed.  He came the next day and said that the hot and cold pipes were apparently opposite the way they should be and that was the reason it did not work the same as the old valve.  He made some adjustments and said that was the best he could do.

We were not satisfied with the way it was so we called again.  This time I spoke with the owner who said he would send the man back to do whatever was needed.  He came on the 19th and ran a set of pipes that switched the way the hot and cold pipes connected to the valve.  That fixed the shower problem, but when he tried to turn the water on for the house he said that valve broke. 

The cost to fix it was going to be another $275.00.  I objected to that addition cost so he called the owner to see what could be done.  The answer was apparently that the valve would be fixed at no additional cost because he started working on it.

The technician was always courteous and the owner did what was necessary to get the shower fixed.  We probably should have let the shower continue dripping and saved the $658.38 and the unknown future cost to repair the drywall in the garage.


Response from Falcon Plumbing

"Falcon Plumbing arrived and assessed the repair to complete. It was brought to your attention that the problem you were having with the toilet rocking, was due to an improper repair done by someone else. While the technician was there, he was asked to repair a dripping shower. It was determined that the valve could not be repaired. You were advised what needed to be done and you chose to purchase your own valve for us to replace. After we installed your valve the next day, a call was placed to Falcon Plumbing saying that there was not enough hot water from the shower. The technician returned to find the original piping by others was installed backwards. Hot water was on the right and cold water was on the left. The technician explained what needed to be done and was told that the customer would live with it the way it was. Two days later a call was made to Falcon Plumbing saying that they could not live with it and wanted it repaired. To keep our customers satisfied, we sent out our technician to repair the crossed water lines at no cost to the customer. After making the necessary repairs, we attempted to turn the water back on the house only to find out that the main shut off valve did not hold. We advised the customer the price to replace it and were told that he was not paying for anything. So as not to leave an unhappy customer, again the technician completed work at no cost to the customer. The valve was original to the home, as well as the water piping that was installed incorrectly from the beginning by someone else. So in trying to keep a customer satisfied, the shut off valve and piping was replaced at no cost to the customer. Falcon Plumbing did a lot of work as a courtesy, to try and keep an Angie’s List customer satisfied."

I called Falcon plumbing talked to a very nice lady who scheduled me an appointment immediately. The technician showed up on time, very friendly and very professional. He determined it was a partial blockage and he would need to snake the pipe. Did the job quickly, fix the problem and packed up and left. I had a slight misunderstanding about the price, the owner Wendy called personaly and straightened it out. Great company!

The appointment was made for between 9am and 10am, but unfortunately there was a plumbing emergency and they called and rescheduled for later in the day.  The technician was professional and friendly.  He spoke English which is wonderful for Miami! He was able to cut the old hose off and replace it with the hose I provided,  and it works great!  For any future plumbing needs I will call Falcon Plumbing again!

Got an appointment for the following day. There was no travel time charge, just a $75 (i believe) appointment charge, which would be credited if additional services had to be performed. The heater needed to be replaced, which was done for us within about 3 or 4 hours. The job was done quick, efficient and site left clean. The gentleman that did it was professional and knowledgeable and explained everything. Only gave the price a 'B' because i do not have a comparison as to how much someone else would have charged. We will use them again.

The point of all this is that despite all of the problems I encountered, I would still strongly recommend and endorse Falcon Plumbing to anybody who would ask for my advice.  I have used the company for many, many years, and this is the first time I've ever had an issue with them.  The fact is that I was contacted by the owner the very next day before I had even had a chance to contact him,  and his demeanor and response to the situation was the epitome of class and professionalism.  He took full responsibility for the error, apologized to me, and told me he was giving me a full refund of my payment.  I recognize that we are all human, that mistakes can be made even by experienced professionals, and that the the plumber had acted in good faith when he was trying to fix the problem.  The manner in which this situation was handled by the management made all the difference in the world in reassuring me that this a decent, honest, forthright company that I will continue to do business with in the future.

Chris (technician that conducted the work) arrived on time based on a phone call from the office indicating he was on the way to our house.  He had all the tools, equipment, and tools needed to install a water softener and hot water heater.  We had planned this install months prior to his arrival, so Chris had already conducted an assessment of the work a month prior to the install.  This was beneficial to ensure Chris knew what was needed to bring to the worksite prior to his arrival.  This was the key to a successful installation.  Chris installed the water softener and hot water with ease and expertly replaced the piping to each. The water softener is located outside by the water cutoff valve at the house wall.  He installed a new ball valve as a cutoff valve that replaced the original gate valve which was an upgrade to the plumbing system to our house.   He also routed the hot water tank drain and the catch pan (located underneath the hot water heater) to the garage.  The hot water heater is located inside the house.  This was an important aspect of the job because the original hot water heater drained to the inside of the house in the closet where it is located.  Additionally as an unrelated job item, Chris patched a hole around an outside water facet.  This water facet was previously replaced but the mortar around the facet was not replaced.  Chris patched the hole with hydraulic cement without charge.  We were extremely impressed with the quality of work Chris performed.  It validated our assumption, that conducting this job needed to be done by a professional vice a well-intentioned neighbor in order to have a properly and professionally installed water softener and hot water heater.  Well done Chris and Falcon plumbing.

He had to break the concrete of the house in order to get to the plumbing. He did a good job, but so expensive and left everything open and thrown. I had to get someone else to close it. I got someone else to do the first part before for 800.00 and he closed everything. The reason he did not finish the job was that he could not find the second part of the leak

I thought the overall experience was great. They were very professional. They explained everything that they were going to do and what needed to be done and why they had to do it. They were very patient. I think the price was a little high but it's kind of relative to the work they had to do. There were some unexpected issues.

They want $75 to come out and quote out the business.  Needless to say, there are several other highly rated companies that are willing to provide an estimate.

The technician, Adonis, called me to understand the issue. He brought a new water heat with him in case it was needed, which it was. He was in and out of my house within 3 hours and I had a new water heater installed the same day I called him. He was professional and cleaned up after himself.

Ivan at Falcon Plumbing did an excellent job! THANK YOU!
Found Falcon Plumbing on Angie?s List, read the reviews and decided to give them a call. The receptionist was courteous and
professional. We scheduled an appointment for the following day between 11am-1pm, Ivan arrived on time at 12:45pm with a courtesy call about half an hour before to give us an ETA.
The original job was to replace one spigot (cold water) behind the washer in our laundry room due to leakage and poor hot water
pressure in the kitchen. For esthetic and preventive purposes, Ivan suggested we replace both spigots in the laundry room so we agreed. Since we have an old house he even took the time to give some recommendations for preventative maintenance. Ivan was honest regarding the price for the job and we felt the price was fair for the work that needed to be done. He finished in a timely fashion and kept the entire work area clean before, during, and after the job. Before he left Ivan walked us through the house making sure all water outlets worked properly which we were very appreciative of. Falcon Plumbing did a wonderful job, we will definitely call them for future plumbing and we are extremely satisfied with the price and quality.

When scheduling you're given about a 2 hour window verses we'lll be there sometime between 9 to 5. The technician then calls approximately a half an hour prior to arrival and then believe it or not arrives on time. Once they get there they do their job in the most professional way possible and do it right the first time. The technicians are very knowledgeable and extremely courteous. Falcon plumbing is my only plumber.

Technician Adonis came to the house twice: Once, while I was there, to diagnose the problem and a second time, in my absence, to make the installation. He was extremely punctual, professional, articulate and helpful in explaining the problems and recommending solutions. We sat at the computer together and he patiently reviewed with me the faucet options so that I could make a knowledgeable choice. Adonis also pointed out another potential issue I may have with another water fixture, and gave me a price estimate; however, when I decided not to do that repair now he did not pressure me in any way.
On the second visit, the items were installed perfectly, as far as I can tell.
I am very satisfied. I have used Falcon Plumbing before, on smaller jobs, and will continue to use them. Their prices are not the lowest, but their outstanding and trustworthy service are well worth the value, I think. You get what you pay for.
Their office staff also is efficient and smart in scheduling service and handling follow-through.
