Saturday morning. Day before leaving on a trip. Boiler dies, hard, leaking water all over the floor. Panic calls to every plumber in town. David Smith, proprietor of Sierra Enterprises, not only returns my call within minutes but also drives over(on a Saturday), checks out the damage, discusses repair/replace options, and then comes back later that day with space heaters for us to borrow during what was to be a 2-week outage. Our 40-year-old boiler could not reasonably be fixed. David advised us on options for a new one, answered our many questions, helped us decide how to proceed and what to get as a replacement. He then ordered it, delivered it, and installed it. Installation was a doozy because the original boiler was a poorly thought out rat’s nest.(Those of you who know Los Alamos and the«I’m a physicist and I can do anything» mentality are nodding understandingly at this point). David meticulously planned the replacement plumbing, methodically laid it out, and made sure we had a maintainable, reliable layout that would last us for many years. David is a professional. He plans well, does careful work, and rightfully takes pride in it. He plumbs the way I like to code: understanding that the job isn’t done when you walk out, that we leave something that will need to be revisited in the future(possibly by us) and that we have a responsibility to that future person. He is also warm, kind, and a pleasure to speak with. If you’re looking for the lowest bid you probably won’t choose Sierra Enterprises. If you’re looking for high-quality work, attention to detail, and long-lasting peace of mind, give them a call.
