Plumbing Review (2 jobs)

Did two jobs with Mr. Mike's, a poly B replacement and poly b main water line and sewer line. They were very friendly and professional. Happy to answer any questions about the job. They were straight forward with the costs and if anything came up they let me know what it was, and gave me options which was nice.

They take videos of the work and it is included in the final invoice which can be done over email which I personally find very convenient.

Owner came out to the job and is very easy to get a hold of and to talk to.

Overall, very impressed!

Leaky Shower Drain- Fixed!

Mr. Mikes Plumbing was professional and great to work with from the get-go. I was worried about the damage and the costs but they explained everything to me and took me along with the process so I was sure and confident in what they were doing. They were patient and answered all my questions whenever I had any. Great work guys!

Shady Business Practices

They are, in fact, too good to be true. Our water heater stopped working on a Saturday, so we looked up Calgary plumbers that came out on the weekend. We saw that Mr. Mike's did, and charged only (according to their website) $49.99 to come out + an hourly rate. A Mr. Mike's guy came out, spent a while in our basement (though not apparently unscrewing anything), and informed us we'd need a new water heater. He then gave us (an extremely high) estimate for one. And then we got the bill: a little over $400 (for telling us it was broken, which we'd already surmised since we had no hot water). The guy did not, as the invoice itself said, actually do anything except take out a flashlight and visually look over our broken water heater. The invoice also included an environmental fee for $30, although it's unclear what kind of disposal ops are required for clicking on a flashlight.

But here's the kicker: they offered to lower the bill when I called to complain. . . if I agreed to sign a waiver agree "not to leave any negative reviews about Mr. Mike's Plumbing on any social media platforms." So apparently you can get a discount on the ruinously high fees for their services but only if you sign an NDA. I suspect this might be one reason there are so few negative reviews about this company.

Our view of the company is that they lure you in with the promise of cheap rates, charge a mint, and then prevent anyone from posting negative reviews. For all I know, their work might be decent (we didn't go with them for the water heater replacement since we found another plumber who charged about half what they did), but they seem excessively pricey and engage in what I find to be sleazy business practices.

Fantastic Service!

I was in such a panic when I came downstairs and had water everywhere with 4 small toddlers and a husband who works out of town. I called Pete the Plumber first and felt incredibly discouraged when he wouldn't listen to any of my concerns and continually brushed me off. Immediately after I called Mr Mikes and comforted by the fact that not only from the get go I was walked through the steps I needed to do before they sent out someone but when William Lowe came to my house he was so knowledgeable about absolutely everything and was able to walk me through things step by step so I knew all of my options and was able to make a proper decision due to it.

I ended getting serviced the same day for a very affordable rate. He was amazing with my children, respectful of everything in my house and incredibly efficient with his time. I was quoted 5 hours and he got everything done from start to finish in just over 3.

I recommend William Lowe from Mr Mikes any day of the week! Between his positive attitude, work ethic and knowledge I cant see anyone being able to beat his services. On a personal note, he wasn't hard on the eyes either.

All around 12/10 stars!

Main Sewer Line Blockage

We had a main sewer back up on the long weekend. In our ignorance, we called Mr.Mike's first instead of the City. First strike: The plumbers did not recommend we have the city come out first to determine where the blockage was, whether on our property or the City's. The plumber spent several hours cabling the main drain, and when I voiced my concern that due to the length of the cable before hitting the blockage that it might be on the city property, he actively discouraged me to call the city because of their slow turnaround time. That was strike 2. He told us the blockage was not clear from the main drain cabling, so he upsold us to do a Hydroscrub water jet cleaning. Waiting for the truck to arrive, I called the City, who said they could have a team out in 15 minutes. To the plumbers credit, perhaps because I was in furious tears he left without much comment, and did not charge us for the Hydroscrub call out. Oh and the City team? In and out in 5 minutes, concluding that the line was clear and free of any blockage. Strike 3 for Mr. Mike's. I think they took advantage of new homeowners, and the long weekend pressure. I would not trust this company to show honesty, ethical behaviour or fairness in any of their business. Proceed to hire them at your own risk.

We apologize that it seems you did not have a great experience with one of our technicians when attempting to clear a blockage in your main drain, but we are glad to hear that the City of Calgary was able to come out and solve that for you. If you were able to leave a name or a job number perhaps, we would gladly look into this situation to verify what may have happened, and try and help you out the best we can. If you are concerned about the appointment you had with Mr. Mike's Plumbing, we urge you to give one of our managers a call to discuss what may have happened. Please give us a call at your earliest convenience, and we will happily go over the job with you.

Minor washer leak repair

Dude walked around the house suggesting work I didn't need done.
Charged way too much for a minor faucet leak behind the washing machine that he only finally did after an hour of being here. Then an over charge on the invoice I stupidly didn't notice. Won't call again.

Hello customer! The walk around and inspection of the plumbing in your home, is a no obligation free service we lobe to offer to all our clients. It's more so a piece of mind inspection to let the client know if there are any areas that may need attention with your plumbing system. If you are concerned about the services you had with one of our technicians, we would love to further discuss this over the phone. Please give our office a call at your earliest convenience and request to talk to a manager on duty.
