I would not use Mike council as I seem more interested in selling products and services versus taking care of the consumer.

What a ripoff! I had a cartridge that needed to be replaced in my shower faucet. The technician agreed it was probably a 30 minute job. Then we looked up a price in a big pricing book and told me it would be over $600!!! When I told him that was ridiculous, he looked up another line in his price book and told me he could do it for $485! Totally crazy. They only work by the job, not by the hour. So if your job is something quick, it's still hundreds of dollars. I told them what I needed when I booked the appointment. T... read more

First, I never post anything on Yelp but I felt compelled to in this situation. My bathtub and sink had a backup. I called Mike Council Plumbing. They came out in a timely fashion and their techs were very friendly. They did a complimentary camera of my sewer line and went under the house to examine the plumbing. Was that necessary? Probably not but no harm. The assessment: I have a clog in my sewer line under the house, my lines aren't in good shape and I have a suboptimal drain configuration contributing to the iss... read more

They came to my house to give me a quote for fixing my sewer line block. It was a complete waste of time. I called them to get an estimate for my sewer line block. The person on the phone told me a tech would come, use camera scanning and give you an estimate. I had already done camera scanning before. I know some companies charge for it and some don't. So I explicitly asked whether I'll be charged for it. They said no, it's complimentary for the estimate. The next day, tech came, said $480 for camera inspection. I mention... read more

Business response:

Aashish, We value your feedback so we can improve our service. We're sorry for the miscommunication and wasting your time. We will review this service call thoroughly with a focus on communication and efficiency. Again, our sincere apologies. Best, Sean Counsil Service manager

The company is a total scam! Be aware! Avoid! I called Tuesday morning and someone came within about 1 hour. A friendly guy named Carlos. Carlos requested to go to my basement as he was diagnosing my drain. He came up and said there's gas leaking and asked me to check it out. I couldn't smell anything and I told him so, he said he will provide me a complimentary gas check the next day. I said sure. Carlos left and another guy named Juan came in the afternoon. He said he couldn't fix the drain and apologized and said he w... read more

I can't give a rating low enough. They sent someone to my home without equipment to clear my clogged sink drain. who said he could call to get someone to come with the equipment needed but it would cost $485 and I would have to wait another 3 or 4 hours. Imagine what they might have done to my sink if said ok. Need I say ,,,, beware. 

Business response:

Hi Joe, You deserve better service and understand your frustration. We appreciate your feedback so we can improve our customer service. Sincerely, Sean Counsil Service manager

Talk about money down the drain. (Averted) Yesterday, feb.2nd 2024, I called Mike Council Plumbing for a leak from my toilet, emanating from two specific areas. The two items that needed attention, and confirmed by their technician, was a on/off valve and a toilet Flush Valve. COST of the two items: Valve......................$12.95 Flush Valve...........$14.99 Time to replace 1.5 hours Written ESTIMATE from the technician...........$843.00 Under $30.00 dollars of replacement parts and approximately 1.5 to 2 hours of labor ... read more

Michael, Thank you for the feedback. We're very pleased you were satisfied with our teams interactions and service. We're not the budget plumber or able to compete with DYI's if you're searching for a low price. We do however feel our prices are fair and equitable for the quality of personnel, services and warrantys we provide. Sincerely, Sean Counsil Service manager

Regrettably, I find myself unable to offer an overwhelmingly positive rating for this company, despite the pleasant swag - notably the green folder - that accompanies every estimate provided by their friendly sales team. While the sales representatives convey information with infectious smiles, their proficiency falters when faced with fundamental consumer queries. When asked about the work and what will be done they defer to the technician which I believe they should all be on the same page. My primary source of disconten... read more
