I contacted Pertzborn early Monday morning for a problem that occurred over the weekend. Min immediately arranged for Jesus to come out to the house later that morning, and had briefed him on our concerns. He came completely prepared with knowledge, experience, and tools...and did an amazing job! We have turned to Pertzborn for 20 years because of their problem solving abilities, knowledge and excellent customer service...along with their cheerfulness! Sincerest appreciation to everyone... :)

We are very happy and pleased with HJ Pertzborn. They were prompt and got us in for estimates. Our plumber was very professional, courteous, and polite. He replaced all of our old shut-off valves efficiently and also left everything neat and clean after he was done. Will definitely use them again in the future for any of our plumbing needs.

Had an excellent experience. Chuck replaced the water line running to the refrigerator (for the ice maker) with a new braided line. He also moved the shutoff valve so it wasn't hiding behind a cold air return. Efficient and friendly service. Definitely recommend!

to their credit, they were quick to respond to my initial inquiry about obtaining a quote for a sprinkler system for a small 2-apartment project. i called late in the week... and someone met me at the jobsite early the next week!
now it's 2 months later, and they've not found it within their means to supply a basic quote. soo frustrating. apparently they have no interest in my business. and apparently... i have no interest in their's.

My husband and I were dealing with a bad contractor and HJ Pertzborn was a saving grace! After dealing with uncertainly and issues with our plumbing, their highly professional staff was knowledgeable and easy to work with. They arrived on time and fixed our issue quickly. Even looked at another drain while here for the hour. The cost we received upfront was accurate and painless. I trust their work and know we'll get good advice and service every time! I'll never work with another plumber again - I'll always call HJ Pertzborn.

Amazing service, efficient work and super friendly technicians. Pertzborn has helped us out many a time, but today I called them because we didn't have any hot water. They were fully booked, but put us on the calendar and said hopefully we'll get someone out there today. Literally 45 minutes later, they called to say a technician was on the way. Turns out, we needed a new water heater, which they replaced within 2 hours. Not only that, but they discovered we had a warranty on our old one, so we weren't out thousands of dollars to purchase a new one. I am so thankful! I thought we might have to go a couple days without hot water, but Pertzborn Plumbing came through for us! I get a hot shower after all today! Thank you! Highly Recommended!

The replacement of my lead water supply pipe required quite a bit of expertise due to the configuration of the pipe trench, my driveway, an added slab at the front of the house and only a crawl space to perform the connection work. The team worked very well together, treated me with respect and performed the replacement in one day rather than the estimated 2 days. I was without water for about an hour. The action limit for lead in drinking water is 15 ppb. Testing the system afterwards revealed a little less than 9 ppb lead after the water sat in the system for 13 hours. So, lead contamination was minimal from their work, too.

We used Pertzborn for several projects, and may use them again in the future. But I recommend that you get a bid in writing - before the project starts. If you don't, you should be prepared to pay (maybe a lot) more than you thought you would.

We had a contract in hand for all the previous work. No surprises. The last one did not we agreed to time and materials, and we really suffered because of it. It ends up that the plumber from Pertzborn was on his second to last day of work. He had previously prepped our house by stubbing out all of our faucets/dishwasher/toilet water lines so it would make it quicker when he came back (We paid Pertzborn for that). Well, he was certainly not quicker. What should have only been a few hour job turned into a billed seven hour job. We contested the bill and Pertzborn lowered it slightly, but certainly not enough to our satisfaction. Pertzborn literally left us/the customer, holding the bill, and rationalized it by stating that: We are in agreeance that the work was performed and you are have happy with that. You know what would have made me happier? If we were charged for the amount of time the plumber should have been here instead of the hundreds of extra dollars we were charged for him just putzing around our house while he was a day-away from leaving Pertzborn.

So, we learned our lesson. I hope you all won't learn the hard way, too.

HJ Pertzborn addressed a variety of plumbing issues we had with some of the hook-ups done to a condo we moved into. They did their due diligence in finding and repairing the source of a leak from a new laundry hook-up. Rerouted the kitchen drain so suds would not come out of the dishwasher overflow tube and replaced the garbage disposal trap so the water runs out more rapidly from that drain. We moved into a condo where some nice updates were done, but not done in the best way. I contacted HJ Pertzborn after another plumbing company did not find the source of the laundry pipe leak. We now feel confidence in the plumbing issues we were having. Ryan, the plumber who worked on our issues was very professional and thorough,

H.J. Pertzborn was able to replace our broken sewer lateral quickly and efficiently. They were great to work with, upfront about all the project would entail, and competitive in price. They did a great job and problem solved with us to keep the cost of the project as reasonable as possible while still getting it done right! We later had a clogged drain stack and they had all the tools needed to get the job done quickly and thoroughly. We'll be calling them again if we ever need more help!

The technician came on time, was friendly and professional. I had two issues, and both were taken care of same day, which saved me having to arrange more time at home. I am really happy with the service, and would definitely use Pertzborn again.

We asked Pertzborn to check our current water softener and they said we needed a new one. We had them do the new install. After a few days I didn't think the water was soft so I bought a tester and the results were that our water was very hard.

I asked them to stop back over and verify that the new softener was working properly and they said there would be a service charge. I was amazed that after just a few days they were unable to stand behind their work and products.

I'll never use Pertzborn again! AS TO THE REPLY BELOW, THAT IS A COMPLETE LIE. THERE WAS NO USER ERROR. I ASKED WHAT NUMBER SHOULD BE SET FOR THE WATER HARDNESS AND WAS GIVEN A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT NUMBER THAN WHAT IT WAS SET AT. WOULD SETTING THE TIME FOR THE WATER SOFTENER TO RUN BE A USER ERROR? THERE WAS NO ERROR BY ME OTHER THAN CALLING PERTZBORN PLUMBING IN THE FIRST PLACE! STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY!!!

All I asked them for was to return and verify that the water softener was working properly and they blew a gasket and were really mad! These people never heard of customer service. If you want a good plumbing company to do work for you, run as fast as you can from PERTZBORN PLUMBING! Or, buy a big headache and call them anyway.

Again, I never asked this company to return and make any adjustments, I only asked them to stop back and verify it was working properly. This woman I talked to just couldn't get it in her head what I was asking because she interrupted me every time I tried to talk.

If you have ever owned a water softener you know there are settings, and those settings can be adjusted, changed, and changed back quite easily. Apparently actually using the appliance is user error in their opinion.

The water in our home is soft, everywhere except the kitchen, and there has to be a reason for that. There is no way that can have anything to do with the settings. There is no way to go into the settings and tell it to soften everywhere but the kitchen. When you pay $1425 for a water softener you expect it to work in the entire home! But this company refuses to offer any service after the install.

This is even more disappointing because I grew up and went to school with the family. Pertzborn even sponsored my youth baseball team in 1964, and I am still friends with the family. But this sort of poor service should not go without comment.

Our water heater locked out after the heavy rains on Friday night when our basement flooded. Shaun came today to check on it, and quickly diagnosed the problem, replaced the needed sensor, and got the heater back in operation. He also made a very helpful suggestion about purchasing some inexpensive water alarms to help us with keeping the basement pumped out when needed.

Many thanks to Shaun for his expert, efficient and courteous service. I will request him when we make our next service call.

These guys are awesome. I just had my 2nd experience with Pertzborn, and it was as excellent as the first; I now will use no other plumber because their customer service and expertise is so top notch. A previous plumber botched an earlier job. By contrast, Pertzborn was highly efficient, skilled, clearly explained the issues - and beautifully took care of it. I also appreciate that they have several plumbers - so they can usually send someone out soon. Finally, they explained the billing/charges up front when I first called, so there were no surprises. Icing on the cake: each person I dealt with was super friendly and professional. Great stuff!

We had a situation that appeared to be a wax ring failure on a toilet. The toilet was replaced under warranty by the original plumber when the home was less than a year old saying it “must have a hairline crack”. It failed and we called Pertzborn. Bruce a serviceman from Pertzborn came out and determined the problem to be one that was created when the home was originally built where the collar was installed too high resulting in an unstable installation. Bruce took it apart, shortened the pipe, replaced the collar, replaced the wax ring, setting the toilet level with the tile, needed no shims- problem solved. Pertzborn Plumbing has experienced people like Bruce fix things as they should.
If you need a plumber call them!

I had two addresses within a mile of each other that I needed minimal work done. I was aware of the cost of $170/hour for the first hour and asked if both places could be fit into the one appointment since they were so close. I was told they would try to get them both in. The plumber was there one hour and 15 min only, and I was charged for two first hour charges even though I had tried to clarify that I did not want to go to the second address if I was to be charged again. Pertzborn needs to clarify that the charges are per address and not per client. Ridiculously high cost and I need them to come back to fix the tub handle that is way too tight. Pertzborns reputation is way overblown. Too expensive and mediocre service.

I own a large kennel facility and Pertzborn has saved us many times, often for last minute emergency calls. They're always quick to get someone out to us, their work is thorough, and the kindness of their staff is unlike any other company we've worked with. I highly recommmend!

We had something of a complex issue. A shower in need of new fixtures, the old ones having been lost/destroyed so we didn't know the brand. This likely contributed to scheduling the plumber taking longer than I would have liked. There was a juncture at which I sent three email spread over almost a week before receiving a reply. Perhaps I could have avoided this were I not so averse to phone calls. The pandemic likely compounded the problem also. Once the plumber was onsite everything was great. He ended up having to replace the whole unit and apologized profusely for a cost we were more than willing to pay. The work was excellent and completed same day despite the plumber having to leave to get additional parts. As the saying goes in construction you get to pick two from the list: good, fast, cheap. H.J. is good and fast, the cost is worthwhile.

Our hot water heater broke when we were out of town. A close friend said, Everyone uses Pertzborn. They're on the high side, but they do a good job. I don't know if they're expensive, but they WERE awesome to work with. They worked us in and had the new water heater installed the next day. (They offered to come out the same day, but we couldn't get someone to meet them that quickly.) Everything top notch. Easy to work with, reliable, trustworthy. Their price seemed fair to me. We've found our plumbers; we'll be sticking with this company. Thank you, Pertzborn!

Had my water softener installed today by Anthony - he did a great job customizing the plumbing and then setting up the unit I purchased, even though it wasn't one they typically work with. I especially appreciated his thoroughness in making sure I knew exactly how to use the unit once it was up and running. On top of it all, he gave me an extra Bucky Book he happened to have in his truck - saved me $45 on today's work! This is at least the 5th time I have used Pertzborn and every single time I have been impressed with the professionalism and courteousness of their workers. I honestly never write up Google reviews but after so many great experiences I just felt I had to give a little testimonial.

Having used HJ Pertzborn plumbing in the past, I was disappointed that they now refuse to work on my newly plumbed house because they weren’t the plumbers who did the work. We fired our previous plumber (that’s a different review) and needed help with installing a couple of sinks. I called Pertzborn and they said they would not accept any work at our house “in case the previous plumber did something wrong.” So, basically, city of Madison inspection means nothing and they don’t want to work on your house if they didn’t plumb it initially. Ironically, HJ Pertzborn himself plumbed our house n the 1930s, they just weren’t hired initially for the job by our contractor. Good to know.

I’ve had the floor drain in my basement slow down or stop working 2 or 3 times now and I’ve called Pertzborn each time. They’ve been able to help me out within 24 hours each time and they’ve always shown up when they say they would.
They’ve also replaced some leaky shutoff valves and I had the exact same experience with that person as I did with the drain team.
I think they charge a fair price for short notice work, considering that they send two friendly people and a truck full of equipment and fix it on the first try.
I’ll call them again.

We've used them for two different jobs now - installing a toilet and a sink/faucet in the same bathroom, two different times. They explain things so that they're easy to understand. For example, with the toilet installation, it was explained that we needed our sub-floor elevated 3/4 inch to work with the flange (our super old flange wouldn't work); that they could to install as-is, but to do it right/avoid leaks, it'd be ideal to get it elevated. With the sink/faucet install, we bought the wrong faucet style. They were able to stop back after another job to give me time to run to Home Depot to buy one that worked, despite them having a busy schedule all the time (because they do a great job and people call them).

Pertzborn was professional and prompt from the moment we called them up to take a look at our home. What was expected to be a 2-3 day job turned into an all-week job when we discovered that our main sewer line was completely shot and needed replacement. Our plumber Bruce and some young apprentices worked quickly and professionally to do a massive job, one that I was expected to pay 5 figures for. Bruce not only did a fantastic job, but the overall cost was one that didn't break our bank. Highly recommend Pertzborn and will be using them for all our plumbing needs moving forward.

We have had Pertzborn out to clear our main sewer line before (usually has to be done every couple of years or so to be sure any roots are clear). This is the second time they have done it and Toribio and Ricardo have been out each time. They have been out promptly both times, which is amazing when water starts to back up from the basement drain and you’re in a panic. They are great and know what they’re doing. They cover carpets and rugs with drop cloths to get the rooter in and out and contain anything that drips or spills. They are efficient at the task and work hard to get the drain back to normal with minimal interruption. Nobody likes plumbing emergencies but these guys are great to work with! See you guys in a couple of years.

In Madison WI there is no short of Plumbers. However, the relationship, service, and accountability taken by H.J. Pertzborn is by far in a class of themselves. My project called for a abundance of work on my 1920's building ranging from 2 complete bathroom remodels, a full kitchen remodel, a kitchen upgrade, overall building plumbing update, etc. From the outset, Dennis (our plumber) came out a did a detailed review of all the items my inspector found with the building. He then devised a effective game plan to tackle each project. There was almost 3 weeks worth of work to be completed. Dennis answered everyone of my Plumbing related questions and helped my elderly tenant design a more ADA friendly bathroom. When dealing with H.J. Pertzborn, you not only have access to a amazing plumber roster, you also get a truly amazing support / project management staff. My project manager Min was a gift from above. Min helped me with every decision and answered all of my and my tenants questions. When I asked for my quote to be presented by job, Min meticulously went through Dennis's notes to create a quote which outlined every project in detail. Min went as far as to help my tenant pick out items and distributors for his custom bathroom. I have been beyond satisfied with the work and customer service I received.

We had water coming into our basement after weeks of Madison summer rains...The water was running in through the foundation in 4 places and we could not stop it. When Ricardo and his Dad came out they seemed very confident they could fix the problem and within an hour they had diagnosed and fixed the issue, which was clogged drain tile...Then we had them clear two bathroom drains which took another 20 minutes or so. These guys
were terrific, personable, friendly, and efficient..I can't say enough about Ricardo and his Dad, who work as a team. They are the best. Thank you, Pertzborn for such fine employees. You will get all of our plumbing business for years to come.......Mr. and Mrs. Richard Kludt

Unfortunately our older home is never easy to work with, and this time was no exception. They sent out someone to fix the secondary issue, and Bruce was fantastic. He was professional, kind, and even went above and beyond to keep the noisy machine in a closed off room so as not to scare our 14 month old baby. Bruce also fixed a pesky screw on our front door on his way out, because he is awesome. I will use Pertzborn again, and I highly recommend this gem of a company.

We hired Pertzborn to install some basic fixtures in a bathroom. Nice plumber, but we had issues with installation work. We provided the fixtures and they were willing to do the install and adjust related plumbing in the wall. They would not warranty the products of course, which we didn’t expect, because they didn’t provide them. Install of toilet was fine. Sink was installed with noticeable lean and they used white caulk fill seam along the wall when the fixture was is bone/light beige color. Plumber said he didn’t have right color with him when we asked the company about it after the install was done. We asked them to re-install/fix the installation. First, they complained about it not being their fixture, which has nothing to do with bad installation/the lean of the sink. Then they complained that the floor sloped to drain, which also has nothing to do with bad installation, especially since we had reviewed the slope of the floor with plumber when they first came out to scope the job and plumber said that slope was a non- issue/non-problem. Then, Pertzborn informed us that any additional visits or work to fix problem would be billed to us. I informed them that when contractors make a mistake, the contractor typically would fix the problem at their cost, not tell the customer that they will have to pay for fixing the poor workmanship. Ultimately, they re-installed the sink, and put correct color of caulk over the white caulk (now we have more caulk than what should normally be used). Also, we documented the arrival time and departure time for the plumber and felt they over-charged us by 1.5 hours (over the period of four or five visits) so we short-paid them on the final bill. Not a lot, but it mattered to us, especially considering the headaches we experienced, the unprofessional communication from the installation manager and company leadership, and the extra time we had to spend on emails and being at home to make sure they corrected their work (unwillingly). We requested the opportunity to come into their office and talk through our concerns about the billing. They responded with filing a lien against our home for the very small amount of money we short-paid them. Very bad experience with a company that is well-known in the Madison area. We would not recommend them to anyone based on the experience we had. We were completely shocked by the poor workmanship and unprofessionalism coming from Pertzborn staff and leadership.

I woke up to water all over my kitchen floor that also had accumulated on into my utility room here in my condo on the far west side of Madison. I called them at 7:30 AM. explained my problem & was assured I would have one of their plumber’s out here at 9:00 AM. Ryan Lamb pulled in my driveway at exactly 9:00 AM, was here for 11/2 hours working the entire time fixing “ my issue” & I have NEVER been so thankful for Pertzborn’s fast, prompt, excellent service in all the year’s I have been using them since I moved to Madison in 1963.
The staff at Pertzborn is friendly, helpful,understanding & courteous through out the conversation’s you have with them when you place your phone call to them. Ryan Lamb is a knowledgeable, smart,hard working plumber & I am sure just one of the outstanding plumber’s that this company employ’s.

poor communication. I contacted Pertzborn about needing a gas line run from my basement to my kitchen. I was clear in my communication when I needed the work COMPLETED by, when the plumber showed up he said he was just there to do an estimate not the work. I took time off of work and now am left scrambling to find a new plumbing company to do what I needed to have done in the first place. In addition, Bruce the plumber didn't give a courtesy call ahead like EVERY other company does, was 3 0 minutes late based on the time I was told, and was rude. This company lost my trust. So yes, I will start all over again with an even shorter window to get the work done because of that broken trust.

They are middle of the road, price wise, and worth every penny. Scott has been particularly helpful, even stopping out between appointments to repair a sewer line that another contractor broke. We have been very happy with every bit of work they have done in our house, and I don't even think of calling anyone else when a plumbing issue arises. Just trying to get everything fixed in our 100 year old house before Scott retires!

We had Pertzborn Plumbing out to fix a clog in our kitchen sink, which was also affecting the disposal and dishwasher. Pertzborn sent their tech Jesus out to work on the problem and things could not have turned out better. Pertzborn called in advance and Jesus was right on time. Within the hour, he had the clog cleared out and tested the disposal and dishwasher - everything was back to normal. No mess, no issues, period. Jesus was friendly, thorough and explained everything he did in good detail. We highly recommend Jesus and Pertzborn Plumbing, based on the experience we had.

I have had Pertzborn Plumbing at my home numerous times recently. I have called several times to speak with Steve regarding billing questions. He has always been patient and understanding with me and adjusted my bill according to issues I discussed with him. There aren't a lot of companies that would do what he did for me because he felt it was the right thing to do. Steve is an awesome person and employee. I must also say as many times that different service techs have been here they are all outstanding and are truly a credit to their profession and to the company they work for. Tim was here most recently and is absolutely an asset to this company. I have had different employees at my home and everyone of them are exceptional in what they do. Everyone at Pertzborn from billing to the person that answers the phone when you call are the absolute best. There is a reason they have been in business as long as they have and I hope they stay in business for a long time to come. Always call PERTZBORN if you have any problems whatsoever. You will never be disappointed and will always be happy with the work results. Thank God for a business like this that puts customers, honesty, excellent service and integrity above all else, which is very hard to find in this day and age.

The plumber arrived on time and was very courteous. He tested all fixtures thoroughly and, though unable to determine the cause of the moisture on the first floor, successfully and confidently ruled out the cause as any plumbing fixtures. I have used Pertzborn through the last 10+ years for various plumbing needs. The plumbers are always very neat, thorough and professional, though somewhat more expensive than other plumbers. But, if you want it done right and with no muss or fuss, these are the guys to call!

Pertzborn Plumbing repaired a broken sewer pipe that was located under the slab of our laundry room. A crew arrived 40 minutes after our initial call and quickly located the break. Another crew was sent out to do the repair which consisted of jackhammering a portion of the floor up, repairing the break and then filling with stone and pouring new concrete. There was no mess to clean up afterwards. We were consulted and kept informed at every step and received a quote that was very reasonable. Everyone that we dealt with was very professional and courteous. The job was completed on time and and for the price we were quoted-there were no surprises. We are extremely happy with our experience with Pertzborn Plumbing and would give them 10 stars if we could.

My condo company uses HJ Pertzborn. On 6/14/21 they flushed our sprinkler pipes. They do this every so often. We have lived in our unit for 8 years; we store things like leftover 2x4s, plywood, our bikes, yard games, and gardening stuff in our storage locker in the community garage.  This storage locker is about 6 feet from one of the sprinkler valves.  My neighbor, I'll call her Shannon, has a storage unit right next to the valve.  She said since she has moved in (+5 years) her storage unit floods every single time the sprinkler system is flushed. Keep in mind it's nasty, smelly water that causes stains. Our entire community parking garage is stained w/ this stuff.    Granted, clearly our condo management company should have done something about this, but Shannon is a sweet older lady who didn't want to cause any trouble, so she simply emailed and called when her unit flooded; they didn't do anything, except the time before 6/14/21 , where they applied a piece of PVC piping that they didn't even attach correctly. THIS acknowledges that, indeed, HJ Pertzborn knew there was a problem and that they caused damage to Shannon's storage unit previously. Now, fast forward to 6/14/21 when our storage unit also floods. My husband spent hours cleaning this mess up.  We had to throw away over $550 worth of items that got ruined in the flooding.  Right away, I call HJ Pertzborn to ensure they know about this problem. I speak with Wendy. Wendy said I understand you have loss and that needs to be addressed. What happens next is the condo company says they and HJ Pertzborn are not responsible for any of the negligence that caused this flooding. I called Wendy at HJ again since she had previously said my loss needed to be addressed and she replied that she cannot say anything else b/c it's the condo company she has a contract with. Once again, it should be reiterated that the last time Shannon's storage unit flooded, HJ decided to add an additional pipe (just PVC piping) to extend the length. This pipe was literally unattached from the original pipe.  I have pictures. All of this is frustrating and ridiculous. I would never recommend HJ Pertzborn based on this : incredibly crappy service, saying they'll make something right and then going back on their word, and doing a poor job fixing an ongoing problem.

I had an outside farm faucet repaired in Oct. 2020. That plumber knew nothing about how to do it, and it had now failed again already.
Pertzborn's people knew each and every detail to get it right and got two of them dug up and replaced using the proper filter fabric wrap and gravel surround in only three hours. We also now had the proper line shut-off valves installed.
[A four hour job done in three, which saved me a lot of money!]

When it comes to a large project, would never recommend this place. All the employees do is complain loud enough for all tenants to hear, and completely ruin a well maintained landscape.

Only half the lawn was replanted the rest left completely ripped up and ruined including the garden. This place is absolutely awful.

Had a really positive experience with these guys. On the weekend our water heater sprung a massive leak. They have on call plumbers so someone (Ryan if memory serves) came out right away. He first tried to repair the water heater instead of immediately going for a replacement which I really appreciated.

Ultimately he wasn't able to save the thing since the gas valve was damaged from excess water exposure. He then explained some options on replacement heaters and they had several in stock. We were able to get a new water heater within just a few hours of when the leak started.

Billing was prompt and explained to us in advance. These guys were great and I'll be going back for future plumbing needs!

They showed up to my house to fix a leak in my bathroom, that took less than 5 minutes to the technician. After that, he installed a water line from my basement to the refrigerator in the first floor. The time the technician spent in my house to fix everything was approximately 2 hours and 15 minutes. The technician was a very nice guy and I am satisfied with his job. However I was charged $473. Honestly I was not fairly charged and very disappointed with the pricing. I will shop around next time.

H.J. Pertzborn Plumbing & Fire Protection has EARNED my business for life. I certainly suggest you let them EARN yours as well.

I've called H.J. Pertzborn on various occasions for differing plumbing related issues. On each and every occasion they've provided unmatched professionalism, expertise, generosity, politeness, understanding and an extreme sense of urgency.

For example, my latest call to H.J. Pertzborn was for an unexpected water heater failure in a new home. Unfortunately, the home inspection failed to mention that the water heater was 26 years old. Needless to say, it needed replacement. H.J. Pertzborn removed the old water heater & installed the new water heater the same exact day that I called and within a couple of hours. Not to mention, I didn't even need to be home. By the time I returned home for lunch, everything was completely taken care of. Not only was everything completely taken care of, but the cost was incredibly competitive. One of the many times H.J. Pertzborn Plumbing & Fire Protection has blown my expectations out of the water.

If you have a plumbing issue, call H.J. Pertzborn. They'll make you a customer for life.

Bruce led the installation of a new hot water heater system and new water softener for us today. I simply cannot say enough good things about our experience with Bruce and H.J. Pertzborn. Our old systems quit on us, and we sought out proposals from several companies. Not only was H.J. Pertzborn's bid the lowest and extremely rapid (Bruce came the same day we called, and Steve sent the proposal the next day), but it was immediately clear that Bruce could be trusted to install the system we needed and not oversell us on unnecessary products. Bruce was also willing to think creatively about the best use of space in our old basement, while the other companies we talked to only wanted to put the water heater in the location that was most convenient for the install, but not for us.

The installation today was flawless, and both plumbers that came were so considerate of our kids running around everywhere while they worked. Bruce explained everything to me to make sure I understood the plan and the new systems, and we can already see how much of an improvement these changes have made for our house!

I could not be more impressed with H.J. Pertzborn from start to finish. They were responsive, completely trustworthy, and did amazing work for us on a tight timeline. We will not go anywhere else in the future.

H.J. was very responsive to all of my questions about replacing my 40 gallon water heater prior to installation. However, they replaced my tall and narrow water heater with a short and wide water heater, thus reducing the footprint of the utility room, and boxing in a bunch of storage . We had to destroy some of it to get it out. Would have been great to know about this ahead of time, or prior to on-site installation. When I found out post installation, they didn't respond to any email questioning why this wasn't communicated at any time. In addition, the plastic bag affixed to the side of the unit with the user's manual and warranty paperwork was filled with water. Didn't realize it until it fell off the side of the water heater and onto the floor.

He did a great job and cleaned up nicely. He wore covers on his shoes to keep the work area clean. He took his time and answered our questions. He took away the old toilets for us at no additional charge. Everything is working nicely. We will definitely use Pertzborn Plumbing again.

Due to an accident in our utility room we had a small gas leak on a Sunday. The gas was shut off to the house leaving us with no ability to cook, heat the home, and no hot water.
I filled out the online form on their website and explained the situation and that we needed someone ASAP to fix the leaking pipe. Someone called me at 7:10am the next day and they got a plumber in that same day around lunch to look at and fix our issue. I was worried we'd have to wait days for an appointment, but they took got me taken care of immediately!

Used twice recently--replace a kitchen faucet and put in a filtration system. First time I've used Pertzborn and will use again. Had Scott the first time and requested him for the second visit. Took the time to explain what he was doing, and did a few things to make his installs to his liking--ie added a couple valves where we didn't have any, replaced another valve with something that is better. Bottom line is I felt very confidant he gave us the best installs with the best connections--clearly felt strongly about doing the job right, not just getting it done.

I called them after discovering a horrible smell coming from the bathroom and basement. Their office staff was cheerful and polite, and they put me in touch with the service department immediately. I was told someone would be by within a couple hours and that they would call before they headed out. Maybe 45 minutes later I got a courtesy call saying a plumber (I think Greg) was on his way. I was SO impressed already! Then he discovered that the smell was coming from a sewer pipe from a toilet that was removed during a foundation repair. The pipe was never properly capped, but Greg fixed it in ten minutes. No more smelly house! He answered some other questions I had about our fixer-upper and he was so nice with our dogs that I sent him off with a bag of homemade cookies. HJ Pertzborn was worth every penny, and now I'm going to have them replace our water heater. SO impressed!

We worked with Pertzborn for a fairly large project in our single family home, involving removal of existing cast iron sewer pipes under our basement slab in our older house and doing a bathroom relocation/rough-in. Bruce and his team was clear with communications, thoughtful and very skilled. We were pleased with the process from estimate through job completion and look forward to working with them again in the future.

So I had a leaky bathroom faucet and needed a drain cap...

Scheduling went fine, plumber came and was nice. He didn't have the drain cap needed, so had to be ordered. He fixed hot water gasket that made the faucet leak. As he was walking to his van, I noticed it was leaking again. Got him back into our house, it leaked at first, then stopped. He was nice said if we had any problem with it they could fix it when they return for the cap.

It stared leaking again. I called right away and the woman said I would not be charged for them to come and fix it again. She would call me when the cap came in. Super pleasant.

Two weeks pass...

I called them back. Now there is a new woman (Amy?) who could not honor what the 1st scheduler said because she was no longer with the company. She didn't' have any records from the 1st plumber that it started leaking again. She was quite rude conveying the message. I tried to plea my case. It was clear she did not care. After all, as she said how do we know it is leaking because of the same problem? Hmmm...

2nd plumber came, different guy, still nice, and fixed the faucet (maybe another gasket?) and replaced the drain cap. It didn't leak for a day.

Interesting that the $400+ bill came really fast. Their accounting department must be good.

I got a different plumber. The faucet is fixed. 1st time. Too bad. Pertzborn helped us with a clogged drain 2 years ago and were great. I will not be using them again.

We used H.J. Pertzborn to install a reverse osmosis line and facet in our home. They did an excellent job! They are easy and efficient to communicate with and the job was done in a timely and neat manner. They made the process so easy from start to finish. We will definitely be using them for all of our plumbing needs.

The work performed was done well. It looks professional and works well.
My only issue was cost. I was shocked at the material cost and upcharge on that. I was also surprised it took 3 hours to install a small stationary tub (But I wasn't there to watch what all was happening).
It was over $800 (excluding the tub/faucet).
The plumber also said he would secure the sink and did not.
I will say that I should have gotten it quoted before I did the work. Lesson learned. But the work was done well.

We hired Pertzborn to update our 1980s condo sprinkler heads, and they did an amazing job. Joe was prompt and courteous with his proposal, and Jerry was awesome to have doing the work. He was clean, conscientious, and friendly. We can’t wait to have our ceilings restored and our remodel completed, because we will not miss the old, unattractive sprinklers that were fully exposed. I suspect some of our neighbors will consider updating their sprinklers once they see the finished project. The new sprinklers are “pop down” heads which look like a white disk on the ceiling. Very unobtrusive.

Pat was so wonderful! We caused the plumbing issue, trying to replace a sink, and he was kind about that...and was even willing to walk me through how I would install our new sink (because we were working on a budget and I was determined to finish the job). I appreciated how he explained everything that he did. Also, this was an emergency job...and Pertzborn dispatched someone quickly. Very grateful.

We had a pipe freeze and called Pertzborn around 7 on a Saturday night. We got a call back from Dennis within 20 minutes. He was super helpful and got us started on a few things while he continued with his other calls. By the time he checked back in an hour, we'd managed to unfreeze our pipe ourselves. We'll be calling HJ Pertzborn first from here on out. Absolutely top-notch customer service and the knowledge to back it up.

Brian was a professional and courteous. He double-checked with me about work I requested. He communicated well with me about the work being done and was accurate about the time it would take. As a returning customer, HJ Pertzborn offered me a coupon and another discount on the bill. Great customer service and recognition of repeat business. They are the only ones I do business with.

With the -20 temperatures we experienced last week I had some of my water pipes burst. So I was in desperate need of immediate service. Not only did the service dispatcher talk me off the ledge I was ready to fall over but she had as technician to my house in 3 hours. I spend over 8 hours of quality time with the technician that day. He was friendly, talented and patient. He explained everything he was doing and before leaving made some recommendations for things I could do in the future to ensure something similar didn't happen. 2019 made record cold temperatures it's nice to know that there is still a plumbing company that exemplifies excellent customer service. Thank you HJ Pertzborn for making a very frightening home owner moment a little easier.

Did not fix my issue and I had a VERY bad experience. Referred me to an electrician and charged me a lot of $$ just to say was an electrical issue. Electrician evaluated and determined it was in fact a plumbing issue.

Called a second plumber and they fixed right away. I shared the invoices and asked Pertzborn to waive my fee but they refused. I paid for them to do nothing and incorrectly diagnose an issue that was quickly addressed by a different firm.

They gave us a very reasonable estimate to replace our hot water heater. We were very satisfied with their work. Their workman was very nice and explained everything to us ahead of time. We always use H J Pertzborn for our plumbing needs.
