Plumbing

Mike has been my plumber for over 30+ years and I have never been disappointed with his work.

In drought stricken areas like Santa Cruz we are implored to minimize water usage. One way to flip a metaphorical finger at those dried up water reserves is to allow continuous leaks to go unabated. That's what I did for the last few years that my disposal was leaking gallon after gallon into a buckets under my sink. [shrug] Well, my new house guest has a way of guilting me into responsible home ownership. She was like "what's this abortion of a plumbing job on your sink?". That worked. Today I popped onto Nextdoor to see whom my neighbors used for their plumbing. Foursquare & Yelp! echoed the flattery for Amer and so i began dialing. He showed up within hours of my call. Amer is in Soquel so he's centrally located. He can deploy wrenches to Watsonville as well as upstate Davenport with equal ETAs. A quick aside from this gripping plumbing review: Amer has both iPhone & iPad so he's 21st century all the way. I shared my vCard & GPS coordinates via Apple Maps, Find Friends, WAZE and, upon his arrival, old fashioned screaming my location from my patio. My final bill was entered on an iPad so you know there's actual accounting behind the scenes. I bet I could get an email receipt if I gave more than zero fü¢&s about such things! In 2016 Santa Cruz has the highest median home prices in the country. I think that may be why Anytime Plumbing is most accustomed to working with clients who want top of the line appliances. Bosch, Pür, Viking are names dropped in those circles. My home, however, is a Measure O condo and the most lauded brand in this unit is "Kirkland". People are surprisingly opinionated about their disposals. Amer was not different. He scoffed at the idiot of a disposal I'd acquired after just three hours of Internet research. Crappy plastic bits of cheapness were apparent on my Waste King disposal once he pointed them out. Well, Amer can be convincing and so I took his advice to step up my game. He indicated I'd not soon regret getting a disposal that'll last into the 2020s. It didn't take long before a high horsepower unit was fetched from Soquel and advanced vegetable composting commenced again. The problem was solved with both E-fficiency AND professionalism. This was just another one of those days I was thankful to have help from the local businesses in my community. So thank you, Anytime Plumbing, for getting me out of this tricky situation.

Wonderful place

We use Ace Plumbing for backflow prevention tests at a number of our buildings in the City. Bill and the ladies in the office are always so on top of it. I appreciate the great service we receive every time.
