Heritage Home Restoration Review North Vancouver BC
After three failed contractors due to sloppy workmanship, I decided to use Kodiak Heating and Plumbing to help me complete my renovations. They were outstanding! They took the time to listen to my concerns, come up with a plan, and follow through with excellent results. Whenever any problems came up, Andrea was on hand to deal with any issues or concerns. Rudi with his expertise was able to tackle a heating issue that no one before him was able to fix. Thanks to them the rest of the renovations went smoothly. They stuck to the estimated timeline, used very qualified tradespeople, and helped me complete my dream home! I will certainly use them again if any more work needs to be done in the future.

Copper and Pex Repiping Review Burnaby BC
After suffering one too many damage-causing leaks in my mid-'80s Burnaby house I recently decided to rid myself of all the problem-plagued polybutylene water pipes and have them replaced with PEX piping. After reviewing the limited number of companies who do whole house re-piping and soliciting quotes I decided upon Kodiak Heating & Plumbing, owned and operated by Rudi & Andrea Bruns. Being a small company with minimal overhead their quote was half that of the next highest from a much larger company, as was their expected time to complete the job. I wasn't disappointed.
After decades of plumbing experience both here and in Germany Rudi certainly knows his stuff and impressed me by preferring to install only quality products, whether it was the Grohe brand (German, of course) pressure balance valves in the bathtub/showers, or the brand of PEX pipe he uses. Interestingly, he refused to use any brand of pipe other than Heatlink's Purelink pipe, which he considers superior to other brands (& is a Canadian product, as well, with a 25-year warranty). The job wrapped up exactly when Rudi said it would.

Bathroom Renovation Review
We hired this company for 2 complete bathroom renovations plus consultations regarding a possible kitchen renovation. The contract manager has extensive experience in utilizing modern fixtures, cabinets and appliances so that the end result is both attractive and functional. Kodiak provided us with excellent design and product advice. They pride themselves on installing fixtures correctly which we can attest to. Their 'do the job right' attitude extends to every aspect of the renovation. Their team of tradespeople do quality work. They are honest and respect the vision of the client. They are particularly knowledgeable of European bathroom fixture installation and design. Bathroom fixtures are becoming more complicated and costly; it makes sense to use experts like Kodiak who emphasize good design and quality installation. My experience in today's world is that many contractors do not provide the level of attention to detail and correct installation as Kodiak does. Recently we moved to the Okanagan (BC) and had a house built. The difference between the 2 companies made us appreciate Kodiak even more! Kodiak stands well above most contract management teams in terms of design, installation quality and functionality.

Rinnai on-demand water heater installation review
I also had Rudi install a Rinnai tankless water heater in conjunction with the re-piping. Two days after the job was finished it started acting up, flashing a condensate drain line error code. I phoned Rudi that evening and he suggested various fixes over the phone but came to the conclusion that it must be the heater, itself and that I would have to call the manufacturer under warranty. I was mulling over that prospect, not exactly thrilled, when, surprisingly, a few minutes later Andrea called back and said that she & Rudi were on their way from North Vancouver. Within a few minutes of arrival, Rudi had ascertained what the unusual issue was and quickly fixed the problem. I can't think of too many plumbing companies that would have been willing to come out mid-evening for a non-emergency call, and not too many that also give a one year warranty on their labour. I'm already thinking of renovating the master bathroom and relocating some fixtures; and when I do, I've got Kodiak's number.
