I am so pleased with their customer service. First they recommended a wonderful drain cleaner. And then when it turned out we did need a plumber as well, to address some more serious issues, Jim had several phone calls with me and invited me to send in photos so we could figure out and schedule the appropriate service and length of time, to do work on our over 100 year old house and plumbing. I love that they put in the needed time. Also we have used them before and we had excellent service then too. They are helpful honest and professional!

I will only work with Norblom Plumbing. If you haven't worked with them yet, please consider my experience/s. Again, they were responsive, communicative, friendly and helpful. This time, my water heater collapsed (17 years RIP), and I was literally leaking money (+$300 on my last water bill!). When I finally figured out what was happening, I called Norblom Plumbing for help. Amy scheduled service, Mike showed up on time, and my water heater was replaced all within 24 hours. I appreciate that Mike gave me an overview of differences and code updates from the last water heater after completing install

Decent work, poor accountability. Mistakes were made that required just a bit more communication or attention to detail. Unfortunately this required return trips to fix and they were not available or willing to make themselves available to make up for this, even after politely explaining our frustration. I expected more from a plumber that costs $200 per hour.

I called Norblom Plumbing at 8:00 AM and because they had a cancellation, I was able to receive same day service and my repair was promptly completed the same morning. The plumber that was dispatched, Jake, was very knowledgeable and friendly; he provided me an explanation of the work that would be involved and the cost between a repair and a replacement. The charge for the services was very reasonable and I will definitely call on Norblom Plumbing in the future.

Wow! I don't think I have ever experienced better customer service in decades than from Jim at Norblom Plumbing! I requested on-line through Yelp help with a frozen pipe in my house at about 10pm and within 15 mins or less we had a super helpful reply with a link to see if we could fix it ourselves. As it turned out we called them a couple days later and Jim provided helpful info and additional tips we could try ourselves as well as pricing if we wanted them to come out to our place. We felt like we were listened to and supported during a stressful time. Just those two interactions and

Had a water hammer issue. They arrived on time and looked things over. Installed the parts I purchased and that solved it. Quick and efficient without other unneeded recommendations to issues I didn't ask about. Would use again and refered us to the remodeling part of the team for our bathroom we are thinking of updating. Great overall experience.

Quick, personable, and knowledgable! I needed a vintage sink installed in my bathroom and Jim walked me through the process and answered all of my questions and provided complete transparency before even booking to ensure this was a good fit for both parties. Andrew arrived early and completed the job quickly and seamlessly! I wouldn't trust anyone else with my plumbing needs.

I can't say enough about Norblom. Jim and Jake are the best! Jim is the guy to talk to have the appointment set up, super nice, knows plumbing inside and out. We always get someone out quickly. Jake is the guy we ask for every time. He is great, efficient, on time, and works smart. Even has treats for my dogs. We won't ever go anywhere else for plumbing.

Very disappointed!!!
"our neighborhood favorite" this is a SCAM business! I had no pressure water coming from the kitchen sank, guy comes in takes a look from the bottom sink and right away told me it cannot be fixed today, told me the problems are the pipes he thinks but doesn't know exactly until he breaks down my walls downstairs ceiling that connect to the pipe to see what's wrong with the pressure and pipes, estimate couple thousands dollars. I asked if there someway to do a short cut and he said at least $1700 to reconnect to a different pipe! 30mins conversation charged

Great service, but work hard and charge hard as well. Quotes are always under.
For the labor, they charge prep time, clean up time, work time, and wait time (waiting for water turning on, waiting for inspector....) as well. I could understand that the plumber didn't want to wet my CONCRETE BASEMENT floor, but it costs me another 10 minutes of labor to wait until the water doesn't come out from the pipe anymore.
The coordination is poor. The plumber didn't show at the first appointment.
The material is good quality but three, four times more expansive than the most expansive you

I couldn't be happier with the service we received from Norblom. They were fast, nice, responsive, reasonably priced, and professional. Moreover, they were able to send someone to our condo within a few days. We had our awful Ikea faucet replaced. They charged time + material; the first hour is more expensive, I wanna say something like ~$200. The next hour is a teeny bit cheaper, and they charge by the 15 minutes. No silly charges for coming here and no silly diagnostic/pricing fees.
They even recommended good hardware/fixtures - basically told me to stick to Delta, Moen, and Kohler

Refused to come out and check their work after newly installed pipes continued to leak. No follow up call from manager, nothing. Never again.
P.S. Mc Quillan Bros. Plumbing were able to fix it just fine. This "manager" at Norblum can say all he wants in his long reply, he wasn't there in the office when I called, and he wasn't at my house, so go to someone who backs up their work and sends someone out to check on it if there is an issue.

Called Norblum yesterday afternoon to have them come out and look at my upstairs tub drain that wasn't working - drained as if through a pinhole. They were able to schedule me for the following day at 2 pm. They provided text and phone call reminders which were great.
Today they were great about contacting me with updates on their arrival. Arrived at 2:40 pm and he came right in and took a look. My biggest fear was a previous quote I got for $900+ to fix from a different company. However, Norblum was able to review the situation and estimate it would take him less than an hour to fix. All

Eek! Methinks not.
Norblom Plumbing charges Labor and Materials.
Their Labor rates are "average". I was quoted over the phone 1-2 hours of labor. It ended up taking my plumber 3H 15 minutes. They charge $47 every 15 minutes. So I was not very happy about that, it seemed very much like a bait and switch.
What really upset me was the amount they charge for materials.
I was charged $303 for $70 worth of materials.
$82 for 12'-0" of 3/8" copper tubing..... that's an insane markup that should cost $12-$20 not $81!
It was like that for every single

I woke up one morning to realize that my sewer is backing up in my basement! Oh boy, not the best way to start a day. I started calling some local places with decent ratings and when they didn't call us back after an hour or so, I started to look for more options. There was this Get a Quote feature on Yelp that I haven't tried before. I decided to give it a try. I put my message with my name and contact details and I am able to send it to some or I can choose more to include to send. These send as a message to the business and when they reply to you it is also a message. It worked

I left a previous review saying that they never showed up, which is true. The next day, they returned my voicemail and the secretary said it was her fault - she had a personal emergency and she got distracted. Not great for me but at least it wasn't a bad leak. Stuff happens, and they came the next day. The plumbing job was good, fast, professional.
I've used Norblom plumbing on other occasions as well and they've always been good. The one hiccup seems to be just a one-time mistake. The people at the company are honest and do a good job.

I checked Yelp before looking for a plumbing business to help us with an issue another company had called to our attention. Norblom had lots of ardent fans and very few less-than-positive reviews, so I called them.
When I described the problem, the nice lady on the phone said we needed to talk to a project manager. Yikes! Sounded serious. Steve and I connected after a few tries, and he was always responsive. I called on a Friday, and he got here Monday first thing. He spent quite a bit of time with me, looking at the exterior of the house, up and down three flights of stairs several times.
