Woke up in the early morning to find that the furnace had not turned on during the over-night hours. Inspected the thermostat, checked the thermostat batteries, inspected the circuit breaker, the thermostat switch, then checked the furnace to see if there was any flame.
No Flame. Either the igniter has failed or severe winds blew out the pilot light.
8:55 a.m. Phone call to Olsen Plumbing & Heating. Receptionist stated that we were fourth (4th) in line and would be contacted by someone NOT LATER THAN 12:00 (noon) with an update from the technician.
12:00 NO CALL

Positive: Professionalism, Punctuality, Responsiveness
Olson came out on a Sunday to unclog our sewer line. They responded quickly, and the technician who came was very professional and friendly, and the job was done quickly. I would definitely recommend them.

We were not impressed. We were contacted by Olson and they said they could come out early to give us an estimate on a new hot water heater. They came! But, we were told that they needed to look into ordering a smaller hot water heater and they would come the following day to look into it further. They never came-there was never a follow-up call-we never heard from them again. We were willing to pay this company over $1500 for a new hot water heater. Guess we weren't a priority. Or perhaps this company is so big that they don't need our business. My suggestion is to find a company that

Horrible employees seemed inept and could cate less about their job. Over charge people for the subpar service they provide but can afford to buy brand new cars for themselves. There is a reason they only have 3 stars, please stay far away from this company!

I am not sure what is going on at Olson, but I just finally gave up today. I received a notice from the City that I needed a backflow valve to be installed. I had to wait 3 weeks to get an estimator to my building. After that I could not get the results of the estimate. It's been over a month since they visited for the estimate. No contact from them. I practically begged them to help me. Sent emails and left messages. I called another company today to start the process all over. Must be nice to be so busy that you can treat people this way and still be in business. What a shame.

I have called twice, once at 1130 in the morning and once today at 410. I was told both times the only person that could make an appointment for an estimate was at lunch or gone for the day. I asked this time if she was the only one in the building that was capable of doing this. Seems odd that a company this large could'nt have a person cross trained or a manager that could step in. I was recommended to use this company and see there trucks everywhere but guess they have enough work. The lady that took my call was willing to let me call back or transfer me to her voicemail.Thanks anyway

I've used Olson when I was facility manager for a large building, and for my home. Their service has been quick and well-done, even with the unpredictability of repairs and requirements. They are also well-stocked with ideas for prevention and maintenance, and happy to share their knowledge. The schedulers have also been invariably cheerful and competent, even when things are busy and they are obviously overloaded.
Highly recommended.

I am a salon owner, so water is obviously really important for us to run a business. After I shampooed a client, I could still hear water running. Found the problem, got the water turned off and called Olson immediately! I didn’t expect anyone to respond quickly on a Saturday, but Olson had someone out in about 30 min. The tech that came out was so… professional! He had the problem diagnosed within minutes, and had me back up and running within a few hours. Considering he had to get parts to repair the issue, less than a 2 hour fix was more than I could have ever expected! I am so

I'm perhaps their smallest customer but you'd think I was a big fish the way they take care of me. I've used them a few times, always with outstanding service.

But recently, we had near zero temperatures when our very old furnace gave way in our building. They came out within hours but the outdated part needed to be ordered and took a few days. They managed to do a temporary fix to keep the unit nice and warm.

Olson Plumbing and Heating is the best! I highly recommend Olson!

My experience with Olson Plumbing & Heating was beyond AMAZING - My water heater broke on Thursday and I had a replacement installed by Friday evening. Olson’s office staff was so nice and understanding that I had no hot water. The guys that came to install my new water heater were uber professional, were wearing masks, courteous and and respectful of my house. Don’t waste your time calling around town for your water heater needs. Just start your process immediately with Olson Plumbing & Heating. You’ll be a happy customer too! ☀️

You're not "unable" to service a mobile home, you refuse to service a large percentage of the population. There is a difference. Either way, you're worthless to me and I cannot recommend your services to anyone.

After 34 years of doing business we have found that Olson Plumbing and Heating are the best in the business. They are reliable, reasonably priced, but most importantly they are honest. I have experienced several companies that try and take advantage of the customers.
My most recent experience occurred on Friday. A tenant in our building had an… issue with their toilets and they called a different plumbing company to fix the issue. After several hours their conclusion was that there was a block in the line in the parking lot that would require the parking lot to be dug up, get a permit, and

Awful: Your time means nothing to the people. Their policy on appointments changes with the wind. Very defensive when challenged not to mention LOUD rude and childish.

They certainly live up to the title of "Best of the Springs". On a Sunday morning with showers to take and laundry to do and No Hot Water! I discovered my hot water heater had a leak. Since it lasted 14 years I guess it was due. I called Olson at 8:30 am. The on call Supervisor called me back within 10 minutes. He quoted me a price and said the Technician would be here in an hour. Exactly an hour later Jacob arrived and got to work. He was a professional and got the job done perfectly in 2 hours. I really appreciate the service they provided and the great communication from them. No wonder

YOU CAN MAKE SOME OF THE PEOPLE HAPPY SOME OF THE TIME, BUT YOU CAN'T MAKE ALL THE PEOPLE HAPPY ALL OF THE TIME!!!
With that being said, I am happy to say I had an AWESOME experience with Olson Plumbing & Heating! I was recently doing some remodeling in my master bathroom. When my tile guy was taking out the pony wall from my old shower, he noticed that the venting pipes had been left outside the wall hidden by the pony wall. Obviously, a contractor cutting corners when the house was built. I also needed a plumber to re-pipe for a new standing bathtub. And then he informed me that

I have a rental home in Colorado Springs that belonged to my late parents. They had used Olson Plumbing & Heating for decades and refused to use anyone else. After my parents passed away, I naturally continued to use Olson. Since I live out of town, they have been exceptionally helpful and accommodating. They always coordinate scheduling with my tenants, are prompt , courteous and very professional. They always call me to discuss the work that needs to be done, provide the estimated cost of repair and get my authorization before commencing work.

I have used them to do plumbing upgrades

I had a garbage disposal pipe burst in a home I just recently purchased - water flooded my kitchen, and started leaking through the ceiling to the laundry room below. I called Olson's and within an hour and a half their plumber Sean was at my home. He explained everything to me in detail & had everything fixed quickly considering the damage - the price was also about half what I was expecting it to be. I personally had a great experience with Olson's and will be calling them again if necessary.
