Best Air Duct Repair in Aurora CO

My husband and I recently purchased a condo, and as part of our home inspection, the inspector noted the water heater was 17 years old and that we should prioritize getting it replaced. Okay, no problem--I called 3 plumbers as well as Home Depot for quotes.

On the low end (Home Depot) I was quoted just over 2k for a new 40gal heater. On the high end, I was quoted $3200. I decided to go with the middle option, Courtesy Plumbing, which came in around $2600 and included the tank, labor, disposal of the old tank, and modifications to put the tank in per updated codes. Ryan took the call, came out for free to check out the space, and came back a couple days later for the install.

I appreciated that Ryan was transparent, courteous, and diligent. He and his partner got it done correctly and they left no mess or evidence of their work besides my brand new tank. He even did a water pressure test for me after he had some concerns that our pressure was too high. Rather than immediately try to upsell me on a regulator, he got creative and found a way to test the pressure, only to discover that it was actually fine. As a layman myself, I felt reassured that Courtesy was not trying to trick me out of more $.

I also upgraded to the silver client package after they finished the job because I liked them so much. We'll eventually need HVAC work done in here, and I will be calling Courtesy.

Thanks to Ryan, and extra thanks to Courtesy for acknowledging my husband's service as a USMC veteran and offering us a discount.

Elias was excellent! He immediately resolved my AC issue and I'm now cool! I highly recommend them.

EDIT:  It's been five years since I started calling Conifer Plumbing to help me with my various plumbing issues, and they are still the only company I call.  I bought a 1970s time capsule.  Shane & Co have helped me remodel two bathrooms, my kitchen, and most recently a laundry room.   They are always punctual.  They are always happy to answer all my questions before, during and after the project is completed.  The price is always competitive.  I really can't say enough good things about these guys.

Shane of Conifer Plumbing is as good as they get.  He services the entire metro area, not just the foothill towns.

He's incredibly professional, friendly, and knows his trade inside and out.  He'll do the job right, the first time, and it'll will probably be better than just code.  

I've been slowly remodeling my house on my own for the past couple of years, but whenever it comes to plumbing, I call in Shane.  He never minds an audience, is patient with my questions, and shows up on time.  He gets my full endorsement.

Added bonus:  no plumber's crack.

Huge fan of Jim Needham Plumbing. We had two toilets that needed repair, we had someone come out the next day. Great customer service, wore masks and covers on their shoes. No upselling. Simply asked what the issues were and worked quickly to resolve. Jim did come out personally when the issue wasn't fully resolved and even fixed the shower head and water pressure free of charge. Genuine, family owned company. Would recommend them 10x over and will only use them going forward!

Ultimate Heating and Cooling did a great job on answering my questions and gave me quotes on a new furnace and air conditioner. I recommend you check around, and ask right off the bat what their schedule is because some places are not able to access equipment due to slo of the supply chain. Ultimate carries Carrier brand and they had the  equipment ready and time in schedule to book in 2-3 working days after I made the decision to go with them. I mainly dealt with Ross M. He is as professional and answered my question quickly. Ross and Justin put the HVAC system in and made sure the met with my daughter to explain how to the system worked. The cost is a huge expense, but they worked with us and made us feel like we got a quality product and made us feel like we were not being taken. I highly recommend Ultimate Heating and Cooling.

Highly recommended....Michael did a gas line for a new range. Not only is he friendly he is knowledgeable very professional. Will use TNT again!

Topher and his assistant did a great job installing a gas water heater in a very few hours. Both were very personable and seemed very competent. Thanks!

Zach and his crew were great. They worked with our budget and got our house cooled down with a new system right away. Can't recommend them enough for being professional, fast, and fair in their pricing!

While these guys might be ok for emergency work NEVER use the for major work. Came to my house to some diagnostics on our AC, after some discussion received a quote $12,000 for a new furnace and AC.  Called a local HVAC person and he quoted $7300.00 for the identical furnace and AC.

BUYER BEWARE! Doing business with this company has incredible risk!!  Had a problem with our relatively new hot water heater.   Pilot light wouldn't stay lit.  I was extremely busy that day and had guests coming to stay with us so the wife called these guys to come take a look and see what could be done.  They did show up same day but that's the ONLY positive thing I can say about them.  

Wife calls me on the cell phone to give me the update: According to Joe Plumber, the thermocouple is bad and should be replaced.  How much you ask? $900! But it cant be done until Monday (4 days away).  HOWEVER...he can clean the thermocouple for (get this!) $700.00.  I told my wife to pay the man for his service call ($29) and get that THIEF out of our house! Surprised he didn't steal the silverware on his way out.

Just so you know the facts: To replace the ENTIRE HOT WATER HEATER would cost around $1000.00.  The thermocouple is $12.95 at Home Depot.  The replacement takes about 30 minutes with a hex key and a screwdriver.  According to AAA Service, just to CLEAN that $13.00 part is $700.00.  UN-BE-LIEVABLE.  If you do business with this company, you are absolutely going to get plumbed!

I am assuming that these jokers rely on the fact that most people don't know much about plumbing.  My advice is to ALWAYS get a second quote.

ADDITION TO REVIEW: As a reminder, AAA Service wanted $700.00 to clean my thermocouple.  Yesterday afternoon, I watched a YouTube video, broke out my handy dandy crescent wrench and a screwdriver, took some steel wool to the Thermocouple and less than 30 minutes later, water heater works just like new! I know some of the 5-Star reviews on here comment that yes they are on the expensive side but worth it. To them I say--$1400.00 per hour ($700 for a 30 minute job)?  Thats taking a little bit on the expensive side well beyond reality!  Take a look at the reviews.  There are a whole bunch of 1 and 2 star reviews and a bunch of 5-star reviews.... nothing in between.  I submit for the record that the 5-star reviews are friends and relatives of the owners.  The 1 and 2-star reviews are the ones you need to pay attention to.
