Apache Plumbing

Came out on short notice and took care of a backed up kitchen sink.  Highly recommend!!

Tony came out within the hour to clean out my washer/sewer drain.  He was courteous and tried to duplicate the problem, potentially sparing the cost of the clean out.  I appreciated his honesty prior to performing the service.  I opted to have him continue and he was able to pull a large hair clog from the drain.  The pricing was reasonable and he guaranteed it for 30 days.  I would definitely call AK Plumbing again.

AK Plumbing is super!  They came out very quickly and took care of my plumbing problem.  You cannot beat their professionalism.  Tony is great.  Do yourself a favor and call these guys!  You will not be sorry.

Once again, Andy and Tony saved the day!  These guys are the absolute best.  I met them many years ago when I had an issue at one of the rental properties I managed and continue to use them to this day.  They are responsive; honest; and they know what they're doing.  I've used other plumbing firms but after getting ripped off by other reputable plumbers I don't even look around - AK Plumbing is the only plumbing company in my contacts list and will remain that way forever.  I've used them for little jobs as well as big ones, and have referred them to my other management friends and my neighbors.  We all say the same thing about Tony and Andy @ AK Plumbing - THEY'RE AWESOME.

Tony showed up on time and quickly cleared my clogged sewer pipe.  Then he explained what my short-term and/or long-term options would be if the pipe clogs up again in the near future.  Tony and Andy were so good at explaining the possible scenarios as to the current issue with my sewer pipe.  No hard sell, just educating me so that I would understand this situation.  30-day warranty on their work!  I would highly recommend this company.

These guys are outstanding; came on time, fixed my leak quick and smiled the whole time.  Very pleased with their service and demeanor.  Recommend highly.

Tony was awesome! My husband, Tim - had called a few plumbers prior to this company and they never returned our calls, but tony responded right away and made it a priority to get our water running.

He came out the very next day and even made repairs to our water heater that were not caught by our inspector prior to purchasing. If you are in need of any plumbing help, call him! We will be sure to always recommend these guys! Thank you for all of your help!

Here's one more review of Apache Plumbing's great service.  I had THREE plumbing issues (I was saving them up for some reason).

1. Constantly leaking sink faucet by the washing machine in the permanent shed (sort of like a garage) behind the house.
2.  Slow drain in the big bathroom.
3. Low water pressure from the kitchen sink.

I called Tony about these three issues.  The first thing he said was, Hello, Mr. Hidalgo.  It's nice to be known by your plumber.  Call me Larry, I said.  

I explained the problems and expected him to say he'd be here sometime later in the week or even next week.  Tony said he would be here that afternoon.  He sent me a text later that he'd be here in 10 minutes.  Ten minutes later he was here.  

He looked at each problem.  The shed sink needed a new faucet.  He said he'd be right back with the part.  In a few minutes he was back with the part.  I asked him if he needed anything and he said no but that he would be turning off the water.  In a couple of minutes he was done with the new faucet installation.  Nice new faucet, no more constant leak.

Next was the bathroom sink.  He was done in a flash.  This is embarrassing  to admit, but it was just a HUGE HAIRBALL.  Duh!  I called a plumber for a hairball.

Finally,  to the kitchen sink.  The low water pressure had to do with the sink sprayer, which I had previously replaced with my son-in-law's help (I won't mess with plumbing on my own).  Basically, the sprayer is bad.  The best thing to do is to get a new faucet with a pull-down sprayer.  That will allow installation of an air gap (that's the thing that keeps the dishwasher from overflowing all over the kitchen, which would not be good).  I currently have a separate sprayer that is taking up the air gap hole on my sink.

I and my wife will go pick out a nice faucet for Tony to install (Who am I kidding?  My wife will pick it out) along with the new air gap he mentioned.  So that's coming up soon.  I'll let you know how the new kitchen faucet/air gap installation goes as soon as it's done.

I can't recommend Apache Plumbing highly enough.  Thanks, Tony!

Ok these guys are amazing!!!! They came out to my home to give me a quote on replacing a water heater. They quoted me a great price and the installation was quick! They were professional and friendly. I would certainly recommend them for any of your home needs!

P-trap broke under the sink and they came out and fixed it the next day. Friendly installers that present their business card when you open the door. Would highly recommend them to anyone.

Tony was amazing. I called him one evening and he came out the next day to assess and replace my water heater. He gave me a time window and showed up towards the beginning of the time. He was very informative, professional and is just a friendly guy. I'll be calling him for all of my plumbing needs in the future!!

Nice guys showed up fast no funny business cleaned out the lines reasonable price would recommend.

Andy and Tony are my heroes of the week!  After a botched job by another company, they rode in on white horses and saved the day in less that one hour!!!o

It was Memorial Day and my tenant had a plumbing problem and both bathrooms were backed up. I called up AK Plumbing in spoke to Tony he said he would be out there the next day at 9 a.m.
Arrived at 9 a.m. sharp and cleared up the clogged line charging me the agreed-upon price which was very reasonable.
I highly recommend AK plumbing and I will be using them anytime I have plumbing problems.

We had a clogged garbage disposal and 2 guys came... They were friendly and got the job done! We talked about stuff other plumbers had told us about buying and replacing our garbage disposal and they let us know that we were quoted too much!! That we don't need to spend that much money on a new disposal and they would install it for a lot less!!! I will be calling them when we buy our new disposal!

Look no further, Tony is your man for any plumbing job. He has not only provided top notch service for my new shower and water heater, but literally walked me through a shower drain install for FREE. What other contractor teaches you how to do something for free? None that I know. He's a fantastic communicator, extremely honest, and I am glad to know him!

Overdue on doing this review. About a month ago I put a screw through a waterline while putting up some closet shelving. I called Tony and he got right back to me. After talking it through, he realized I was capable of fixing it myself. I am in construction but I'm not very good at soldering pipe. Instead of charging me to come out on an emergency call on a Saturday, he gave me a run down on how to fix it without soldering but still doing it right. It might sound like he was trying not to come out, but he was right on that I was capable and I was able to fix it for less than $20. I appreciated that he didn't try to take advantage of the situation. I would recommend calling him.

The best customer service!! I had a leak in my main water line and needed someone quickly. I was referred to Apache Plumbing when someone else was unavailable and I'm glad they did. Tony showed up first thing in the morning and had the repair done shortly after.

Tony is awesome.  My heater leaked at around  6pm. I found AK plumbing highly recommended in our Nextdoor app community forums.  I called him right away, and my heater was installed the next day. They were all done by lunchtime! Amazing service. Honest, and super fair price. Way better priced than the big box stores.

Tony has been to my house twice to take care of some old house plumbing needs. He was prompt, and thorough in his evaluation of the situations and left the areas clean and tidy. He has been responsive and efficient as well. His rates are fair and reasonable and he will not waste your time. I highly recommend Apache Plumbing.

Highly recommend AK Plumbing. Tony was very reasonable and efficient in replacing our water heater. He took the time to walk me through what was included in the cost of his labor and materials other than the heater itself. He made the experience painless and his work was quick and efficient. I have worked with Tony a second time to install/modify a liquid propane fire pit. He came out twice and on both visits he pointed out that the replacenent parts I ordered were not compatible and he was not comfortable with installing what the manufacturer sent to me. This is a testament to Tony's commitment to safety, patience, and customer satisfaction. Thank you Tony (hopefully the third time's a charm ;)!

If I could give 10 stars I would! Tony was great! I dreaded calling a plumber to fix an overflowing washer drain because of fear for the price, but finally I had to get someone out to the house. Tony was able to come to the house the same day and was very professional, knowledgeable, and answered all of my questions. He fixed the problem and did not charge an outrageous amount like other big name companies we have used in the past. You can tell he really takes pride in his work, which is appreciated. We will definitely use him again for all of our plumbing needs in the future! Thank you Tony!!

Just had the pleasure of working with Tony to have a new water heater installed.  He was extremely quick and professional.  The whole process was quick and streamlined.  I called him last night at 8:30pm and had my new water heater installed and running by 2:00 pm today.  

He kept me updated though out the process so I always knew what was going on.  He asked if I needed new supply lines and I told him to go ahead and charge me for them.  When he got here and inspected my unit he said my current supply lines were in great shape and no need to change them out.  He didn't charge me for them.

Very great customer service!  I highly recommend Tony!

Beware Beware Beware. I paid AK Plumbing $270 to clear tree roots from the pipes. After two failed attempts to prevent the sewer back-ups, Andy said I probably needed $3500 of work to replace a broken pipe and solve the problem. Thank goodness I called an honest plumber who pinpointed the problem with camera equipment and cleared the roots for $85. Learn from my experience.

These guys are the best! Replied on Thanks Giving and came out the next morning to fix a drain. They also fixed the gas line for our outdoor fireplace. They are trust worthy, and fairly priced. We have used them for 7 years now, and plan to continue.

They quoted a fair price for a clogged main line, showed up when they said, they were nice guys and professional, did the job quickly, and charged what they said. Who could ask for more?

Tony was recommended by our realtor to come out and replace our water heater. I was very impressed with the work that Tony did in our 1950s house to get everything replaced and working. He was extremely courteous, knowledgeable, and explained everything we needed to know to troubleshoot in case something went wrong. I am happy to have found a plumber that I can trust. If you are looking for a great plumber, look no further, you've found him!

I have had AK out to do a couple different jobs. Pricing is fair and work is great

We found AK Plumbing via the great Yelp reviews and I thought they were either outstanding or had  a lot of friends who posted 5 star reviews! It is definitely that these guys are that good. I talked to Tony on a Sunday and he told me they could be out on Tuesday morning. He also gave me some instructions to help alleviate and diagnose a leak I had in my bathroom. He and Alex showed up right on time Tuesday and quickly gave me an incredibly honest and fair assessment of the situation.  It's hard to find plumbers you can trust. These guys bypassed expensive solutions and gave me honest options to solve the leak in my bathroom. I will call AK with every plumbing issue moving forward. Good, honest, people. Thanks Alex and Tony!

It is Saturday, 10/24/2015.  We had a badly clogged kitchen sink.  I called AK Pumbing at 11:13a and it is now 1:30 pm. They were at another job clear on the other side of town when I called. Our sink is unclogged in 2 hours time on a Saturday!  We were treated professionally and well.  The price was extremely fair and they did quality work.  We have had problems with other plumbing cos and even rejected and sent packing yesterday one company that tried to gouge us at nearly triple the price as AK Plumbing did the job.  I HIGHLY RECOMMEND AK PLUMBING.  We dealt with Tony and he was great.  This is what dealing with plumbers should be like.  Cash or checks only at this time.

Tony came over on a Saturday to investigate a leak and through process of elimination, he figured it out and it's an easy fix. He looked at a couple of other issues we were having, taught us how to take care of it and left without charging. Great guy with great customer service! Will be recommending to all. Thank you Tony!!!

We had Tony out years ago to put in our water heater. The damn thing started to do the evil voodoo dance and my wife could hear it.  Tony came out right away to check out our problem.  Sure enough the wife was right this time.  He stayed with us and help us navigate the company that recalled the unit.  We couldn't be happier with his service and manner.

If you need a plumbing repair service, I can't say enough about AK Plumbing. Andy and Tony showed up on time with a heads up call 15 minutes prior to arrival.  Fixed our problem quickly and left the work area cleaner than when they got there.  Can't ask more of any plumbing service.  A very professional team.

Tony arrived right on time, gave me some great advise, then quickly replaced my outdoor faucet for a great price! Extremely satisfied! Very happy to be patronizing an owner operated business!

Andy and Tony installed a water heater for our condo. The first day they came we found out the plumbing store had sold us a unit that was not compatible with our gas lines. Andy and Tony came back the following day with a different water heater and redid the installation. They were very helpful and dealt with the plumbing store (Ferguson) for us. The two of them are honest people and experts at their job.

I called AK plumbing around 8pm just to see if I could potentially schedule an appointment for the next day as my garbage disposal and dishwasher stopped working.  I was surprised that someone answered the phone and I'm glad it was Tony.  I had an issue with my dishwasher that I've been putting off and my garbage disposal all of a sudden didn't even turn on so I told Tony about my issues and he immediately knew what the issue was.  Instead of being money hungry and making an inhouse visit and charging me at least $100 Tony was educated and generous and honest enough to just inform me that I needed to hit a button under the disposal.  Without even fixing the problem he told me what to do next if that first fix wasn't successful.  Lucky enough my garbages disposal was fixed over the phone in less than one minute.  Coming from someone who is not home improvement savvy I'm relieved to know that there are honest people actually trying to help and not take advantage of those in need.  He also gave me ideas on how to fix my dishwasher which I have yet to try.  He didn't need to make an inhouse visit anymore and hopefully I won't need his services in the futures but if I ever need plumbing issues Tony  would be my go to contact!  Wonderful experience and would recommend him to anyone and everyone!  Appreciate the help Tony!!

Andy and Tony are just great!  I had a slow-draining sink and toilet issue appear yesterday.  I called around for quotes and spoke with Tony who told me up front what my costs would be.  His prices were reasonable (lower than my other quotes) and from the brief conversation, it was obvious he was a professional and knew what he was talking about.  He and Andy came out that same day, fixed the clog and also resolved two other problems (noisy drain, running toilet) that had been bugging us for two years!!  Great job, great service.  Definitely who I will call again if I need service.

We found AK Plumbing a few years back and have used them ever since. They are very reliable, and work on the weekends! We have called them several times over the years for plumbing emergencies and they have always solved the problem.

So I don't write reviews on Yelp, but after dealing with Tony I had to share how amazing he was. I was having issues with my water heater and Tony was responsive and helpful throughout my time in need. I was getting ready to replace the entire unit, but Tony provided me guidance and some helpful tips before we had to resort to replacing the unit. In the end I was able to get it fixed rather than replaced!!!!

Tony is straight forward and honest. The time will come when I will need to replace my water heater and Tony will be the person I will call to do the job.

I felt compelled to come back with a second rave review for Tony and Andy (not Ken :) of AK Plumbing.  They just unclogged my old bathroom sink and tub that had been causing us problems.  It was something that we couldn't have done ourselves, as they used their power equipment.  The price was very fair, and the sink and tub are draining without any problems.  Great work and thanks, guys!!!  They are truly the ones you need to call with your plumbing problems if you want honesty, great work, and fair prices.

Was very nervous and frantic over a blockage called them up and they were at my house within 15 minutes on a Saturday around 11 am when everyone else couldn't fit me in gave a quote over phone when everyone else was on a quote by visit only had the blockage cleared with 15 minutes without scamming me out of money or pulling my toilet and gave me a 30 day warranty great work men and thank you again for the professional service

These guys are pros. Trustworthy, on-time and friendly. Great job, AK!

Here it is 10 o'clock in the morning I have someplace I have to be at 10:30 and now I have plumbing problems in the bathroom . I didn't know who to call so I got on yelp and I saw the name AK Plumbing so I thought family owned business I'm going to give them a call. I spoke with Tony he said that they would be out to my house in about an hour or hour and a half timing was perfect. Took them a couple hours but they got things running again. These two guys were awesome they were brothers they were honest loaded with integrity if you're in the market for a plumber you don't know who to call please choose this company they're fantastic guys. Thanks Kelly and Tony you are the best! Carol Johns West Sacramento.

We had some work done in our upstairs bathroom by a non professional...won't be doing that again!!!....ended up with water leaking from the upstairs shower down to the kitchen floor! I called these guys today to fix the issue and they were awesome...I mean AWESOME!!!! I rarely take the time to write reviews but the work they did and their professionalism warranted a review!!!! I would recommend them for any plumbing issue and I will definitely be referring friends and family to AK Plumbing!!!!!

Tony is awesome.  He came out right away, tried to talk me into paying him less and did a great job.  I had a leaky shower that needed a new cartridge.  He went, got it, put it in  - no hassels!  I don't usually give reviews but he is worth raving about.

Fantastic customer service, great work done and super nice guys.  I would recommend to anyone.  I talked with Tony Thursday evening and he walked me through the process of turning off my water source (yes, I realize now how easy it is).  I was having problems and he offered to come over if I couldn't get it off.  Next day, Tony and his partner, (Andy maybe?) came over and had my bathtub faucet fixed.  Same price that was quoted to me over the phone.  Price was fair, and work was quick and clean.  Thanks to them and think of them when you need plumbing help.

Another great experience with this company.  Seriously if you don't have a plumber use this company.  Both times with my rental property they've come the same day and handled everything professionally and kind.  Thanks again for such great service!

I wanted to try these guys, but it didn't work out. Here's some notes if you're shopping for a plumber:

1. They expect payment of cash or check at time of service. No credit cards. Inconvenient if you have a rental and you don't live nearby...

2. I needed a kitchen faucet replaced. They wanted the new faucet there waiting for them to install. Again, inconvenient if it's a rental and you don't live nearby.

3. They answered the phone on a Sunday evening, and were pleasant enough on the phone.

AK plumbing is one of the best in the area.
There was a clog in the sewer drain, and as a result, our toilet was clogged and started flooding. Tony showed up in 30 min. When he couldn't find the sewer opening anywhere outside my house, he went around in the neighborhood checking with neighbors who owned similar house. No one knew either. Finally with more searching, he was able to find it hidden under the landscape.
I can't thank him enough for his effort to save us money and mess.
I highly recommend AK plumbing !

Tony at AK Plumbing was A++... great guy, great service and tried hard to make it the most economical. I would hire him again in a minute. He can do everything for plumbing stops to new gas lines. Glad yelp helped... otherwise, I wouldn't have a new plumber.

We had a pipe connection break under a bathroom sink, and AK Plumbing was able to come out to fix it the day we called.  Tony explained everything, discouraged me from replacing more than I needed to (saving me money!), and even came back to help me with the hot water heater when I couldn't figure out how to turn it back on.  We will definitely be calling them again!

Three days ago my wife had called Rotorooter to come look at our three toilets which had been running. They quoted her a 600 dollar job to replace all parts in the toilets ( $200 dollars a toilet). She was ready to book them, but I told her lets get a second opinion. I happened to go online and find AK Plumbing. I took a shot and spoke with Tony. Over the phone he gave me a quote, which was a lot lower that what the other company had quoted. He and his partner, Andy, came and looked at the toilets and stuck with their quote. They came in and worked on it professionally, got the job done and everything seems to be working fine.
This is my first review on any company. I had to give these two gentleman a  5 star rating for their professionalism    and not trying to take advantage of customers.

Tony from AK Plumbing is amazing. He was extremely responsive, answering almost every call we made and calling us back within minutes the one time we had to leave a message. Our water heater stopped working and instead of immediately trying to get us to buy a new one, he came out and tried to fix our old one. When he wasn't able to get the old one working properly, he didn't charge us for anything and immediate got working to help us get a new one. He made us his top priority, installed the new heater right away, and even fixed two other minor plumbing issues we had in other parts of the house for free. He likes to pay it forward and said he didn't want to nickel and dime us. We really appreciated his honest, careful, and super responsive work. We will be calling him for all of our plumbing needs from now on.

I want to give high praise for the prompt and professional service by Tony and Andy. We had a wonderful experience dealing with them and they quickly resolved our hot water heater pilot light problem right then and there. They had the part needed to fix it now!
We highly recommend them and we will not hesitate calling them again!

These two were great. Tony and Andy came by and cleared two of our toilets in our new house. Apparently, the previous owner's kids enjoyed throwing minions down the toilet. They were able to clear both of them in a reasonable amount of time. They were both very friendly and professional. I would definitely call on them again if we are in need of plumbing in the future.

Always prompt, courteous and cost effective service. Thank you Tony for taking care of my disposal as fast as you did.

Andy and Tony are awesome! We have just found are go to plumbers. They are honest, fast, and reasonable. Look no further. We called them and they were out to our condo in less then an hour. Pretty good if you ask me. Thanks again guys. We will not hesitate to call you for future needs!

AK Plumbing provided extraordinary, professional, and efficient plumbing services!  After paying hundreds of dollars to a handyman and Sears (I will NEVER use Sears again), Tony and his brother just came in, got the job done and were upfront with the costs.  I even received kudos from the hubby on selecting an amazing company!

I highly recommend this company for any plumbing concerns you have. They came out the first of June and guaranteed their work. I had to call them back for another issue and they willingly fixed the new issue for FREE!
They came at promised time and did the work in record time! Both professional and friendly.

Need a Plumber call AK Plumbing today you wont be disappointed.

Sincerely,
Lady in N Natomas

Spoke to Tony over the phone, he was super helpful. I had an irrigation issue and provided me with support. Thank you Tony!

Tony was a great help to us. Very friendly, reliable and knowledgeable. Highly recommended.  Thanks again Tony.

Andy and Tony are awesome!!!
Reasonable pricing!! Efficient, high quality craftsmanship, work quickly and clean up after. Thank you guys for all of your hard work.

Spoke with Tony about my water heater not working and no hot water. Had an appointment the following morning. I was given an estimate on what I may be paying depending on the issue. He arrived on time and explained everything very well in easy to understand terms so I knew exactly what was going on. He didn't charge me for the minor fix at the time. I had to call him again as my water heater wiring needed to be replaced. Tony answered my call right away and came back within two hours. Very happy that my water heater is now working fine. Would recommend this company for your water heater needs. Thanks!

Tony was responsive, professional, informative and knowledgeable.  As a non-plumber, he explained everything, answering questions, I didn't know to ask.  That's all good, but his problem solving was even more amazing. Super fair pricing, very much recommended!

We called AK Plumbing For a urgent Plumbing need a at our rental. They had previously done a excellent job at our home. We were so impressed with not just the work they did but how they cared that this family , with 3 kids one being 6 months old needed to have their gas on. they made it a priority to take care of them right away. We can't thank them enough

Kitchen faucet looks great and works like a charm. He even went over to the hardware store to grab a part that was broken, highly recommended.

Andy and Tony are very professional, great skilled and fair priced. They installed my dishwasher and it ran great. They are my 'go to guys' for any plumbing issues.

Tony is awesome! My husband and I frantically called him when our water stopped working at 8:00 pm on a Sunday night! Tony walked us through the problem over the phone and was able to diagnose the issue just by listening to my husband describe the problem. He gave us his earliest available appointment for the following day. Using Tony's advice, my husband was able to fix the problem himself! We look forward to using Tony for all our future plumbing needs!

I called to get an estimate for kitchen faucet removal replace..basically untighten and tighten some screws. He quoted $125 for a 15 minute job!

Tony was a lifesaver. We had a major plumbing backup over a holiday weekend.  He arrived within a couple of hours of our Saturday morning call, and he took a number of steps to try to clear it without having to use more expensive means. Maybe even more importantly to me, he talked me through options and steps, and he approached what was a really stressful thing for us with both professionalism and good humor.  His price was very fair, and I would both use him again and recommend him.

I lost my wedding ring down the drain of our upstairs tub. I called at 10 on a holiday weekend and they gave me advice and were at my house by noon to give me a quote, by 1 pm I had my ring back and they even clean up after themselves! Thank you!

Wow, here we are 2 days from Christmas and my rental house's hot water heater craps out. Once Tony saw that our house was on the way home to his holiday party he decided to repair the heater issue at that time. Can't express enough how straight up his terms and professionalism stood out in this situation. Will be keeping his number on speed dial.

I called them because my toilet was making a strange noise after I flushed and over the phone they were able to identify the problem and explained to me step by step on what to do to fix the problem. It was such an easy fix. I was surprised that they were able to help me over the phone. I will definitely be contacting them in the future. Great company!

Guys were great, we are a business and really needed the problem fixed ASAP.
They showed up right away, fixed the problem and were very nice to deal with.  They were honest and sincere and the price was fair.  Would highly recommend.

Like others have said, quick, honest, and helpful. Tony called me back within minutes, and talked me through the problem with my kitchen sink/disposal issue over the phone. Worked like a charm! If a more complicated issue comes up, they're first on my list to call for help, no question!

I am currently deployed to Texas to assist with the Hurricane Harvey relief mission when my wife called at midnight (10 pm California time) on a Monday (Labor Day Holiday, of all things) to tell me the water was overflowing in the toilets in our house.  Not a good thing to hear when so far away.
I called and left a message with AK Plumbing and Tony called back super fast and arranged to look at the problem first thing in the morning.
Very cordial and professional, they fixed the main drain issue within 20 minutes and even gave us a military discount without having to ask!
Just an amazing experience.
I would not hesitate to recommend AK Plumbing and plan to use them in the future.

Been a homeowner for about 4 months now and through some googling discovered I had a clogged main sewer line on Monday. Called a couple places with no response or openings and got put on stand by for one. I found AK Plumbing and they were there about an hour after I called.

I got asked about a clean out and I had zero clue where it was located. There was nothing visible in front of the house. Luckily I live in a development with similar houses and Tony looked where clean outs were on other house. He searched and dug, not giving up for a good 15-20 mins to find it- saving me money (since if he didn't find one, he would have had to take the toilet off).

After locating the clean out, he successfully removed the clog (those dang flushable wet wipes) and came back in to ensure everything was back to normal operations.

Great and friendly service!

I can't believe this company got 5 stars! My review was about a job they did 10/2014. They charged $1800 for fixing a tiny nail hole on the gas tubing (see photo) after it was located by another guy (whom AK referred and whom we paid separately). The leak was behind wall about 3' from floor with open access. We hired another company earlier who could not locate the leak before I called AK, and by the time the leak was located, PG&E had shut off the gas for 4 days (it's PG&E policy if they were called to a site twice- once by tenant and one by me) which seriously affected tenants' life. AK saw the situation clearly, took advantage of it. The 2nd day after the leak was detected, I met them on the property and they asked for $1800 to just seal the leak (they closed the hole with a metal nut). I did not want to delay further so I went with them. For a project above certain $ amount, we had also to pay city for paperwork required. Not a decent company to me.

Andy and Tony are as good as it gets!!!  Excellent service, prompt responses, great workmanship and just great guys. We've been relying on them for all of our plumbing needs since 2013 or 2014.   In the years we've used their services, they have:

1. Replaced our main drain line under the kitchen (a huge project that involved crawling under our raised foundation)  
2.  Came out at 8 am on a Saturday morning to fix a geyser in our backyard after a water line broke (we were flying out of state that day at 11 am and they came out specially so we didn't have to worry!)
3.  Fixed our garbage disposal
4.  Fixed our kitchen sink when it wouldn't drain
5.  Fixed our garage utility sink when it was backed up and we exploded it using drain-o
6. Replaced our utility sink faucet
7.  Snaked our sewer line a couple of times when our toilet were slow and gurgling

Andy and Tony are so nice, and really work with your schedule and life to be available.   You can see by this Yelp page what good work they do, and somehow they always are able to respond to a call or text within an hour or so (usually within minutes) and come out the next day if you need them to.  They always make me feel like I'm their most important customer, even though I know they have a ton!  

When you have a plumbing emergency, you are kind of frantic -- you can't use the bathroom, or run water or something is spilling everywhere -- you are in distress!! And that is when Andy and Tony are there for you, every time.

Outstanding kind, friendly service and wonderful work, reasonable prices -- you can trust AK Plumbing!!!! They are the BEST!!!!

After calling a bunch of plumbers servicing the Sacramento area, I found a fantastic plumbing company for our job!  Spoke to Tony on Monday, explaining that we needed two toilets installed at a rental property, he gave his professional suggestions for the high efficiency toilet models to purchased.  Quoted an excellent labor cost to install and offer to help me pick up the products.  I met Tony and Andy on Wednesday to installed the toilets.  Everything went without a hitch and the labor costs stand as quoted.   The company is honest and reputable!  Will definitely use them again!

I made an appointment with them and they never even showed up. Wasted my morning waiting around. Now I will have to wait another day with leaking water in my kitchen for an appointment with a different company.

I was trying to repair a leaky faucet on our upstairs tub and accidentally tweaked and broke the copper piping behind the wall. This was on a Sunday afternoon; called AK Plumbing and set up an appointment for Monday morning.

They were very cordial over the phone, and were able to give me an estimate based on a picture of the issue I sent over text. The gentlemen who came over were named Tony and Andy, they were prompt, on time, very friendly, explained what needed to be done and got right to work. They were probably at my house for maybe an hour tops, got everything repaired and were on their way. Totally professional and did exactly what they said needed to be done at the price I was quoted. Would use them again and recommend them to others.

While staying in an AirBnB in midtown, sink starts backing up. With permission from owner, I call Tony and he arrives promptly. Although the business is just Tony now, I am extremely impressed with the care and professionalism he shows this 1904 house. He explains his process, and fixes the clog. I highly recommend Tony. He is personable, professional, and an all around good guy. A+

If I could give these guys 10 stars I would - they deserve it!  Last Friday, I discovered a puddle of water on my kitchen floor and knew that I had a problem with my kitchen sink.  I didn't want to deal with it right then, so even though I had company that weekend, we went without the use of the kitchen sink...thank goodness for understanding family members who didn't mind Glamping for a few days.  On Monday morning, I pulled up Yelp! and did my research.  I found AK Plumbing and gave them a call.  They were perfectly willing to come out that day, but it wasn't convenient for me, so we set up an appointment for this morning at 9:00.  Andy and Tony arrived on time, introducted themselves and were very cordial, yet professional.  I explained the problem and made sure that they knew that water drained from the sink - no problem there, and I assumed that it there was something wrong with the water line.  I just had a huge tree removed from my front yard because it broke the water main (TWICE) and I was a little concerned that this was somehow connected to that problem.  I had visions of dollar signs swimming in my head...not pretty!  They guys pulled the lower plate off the diswasher to check that area (no problems there) and also pulled out the spray nozzle on the faucet...culprit found!  I knew the nozzle had a leak but I didn't associate what I thought was a slow lead with the puddle that was on my floor that Friday.  They tightened a fitting on the nozzle and ...wala...problen solved!  I was a little embarrased that the fix was so easy, and mad at myself for not trying to fix it myself.  The most amazing thing is that these guys didn't even charge me for the visit...how often does that happen??  NEVER!  I was fully prepared and offered to pay for a service call, but they refused to charge me anything.  After my experience with the tree roots, I figured this little problem would set me back a nice chunk of change, and I can't tell you how pleasantly surprised I am that there was no charge at all. I'm going on a pricey vacation soon and  I just knew that resolving this issue was going to cut into my Margarita budget!  Tony and Andy refused payment but said I could toast them with a Margarita while I'm laying on the beach...consider it done, guys, and it will be my pleasure to do so!

I can't recommend these guys enough.  It's so hard to find a good. HONEST plumber so I'm delighted to have these guys' business card in my rolodex.  I've dealt with other plumbing companies in the past and felt like I was taken advantage of because I'm female and not quite as savvy on these things as a guy might be.  I didn't feel like that with Andy and Tony at all.  I completely trust them and they are now my go to guys for anything plumbing related...which will make my Honey Do guy, who inconveniently lives in Reno,quite happy!

Had to have a kitchen an old kitchen  faucet , dish washing liquid  dispenser and garbage disposal replaced. Work was done very quickly, professionally and at a reasonable price.
What I appreciate above all is that you get a guarantee on the work...If there is a problem you call and they will come back and fix it ...( This is much better than what some contractors offer...The tail light guarantee (the guarantee last as long  as you can see the tail lights of the contractor's truck).

Getting up in the morning to take a bath I come to find there's no hot water is in it's own right a RUDE AWAKING..  After checking the hot water tank I found out why quick enough as water leaked out of the tank.   I've always gone to Yelp to research who would come into the house and work and who are efficient. Looking through the reviews I came upon a decision that I would call this company.  Upon calling at five minutes before 6 a.m. and  explain my situation to  the gentleman on the other end of the phone quoted me a price for a complete replacement .  They (Andy and Tony) came an hour earlier which was great.  Yes, they called first to make sure we were ready for them.   They settle my worries and explained everything to me.  Plus stayed after the job to give me advice about the water pipes.  They are knowledgeable, pleasant, polite and efficient.

Had a leaking water pipe in the attic and contacted AK Plumbing.  These guys were accommodating and very professional.  The pipe was copper and required removing the damaged section and soldering in a new piece.  They were in and out within 45 minutes and did a great job.  They were also reasonably priced compared to other plumbers that I called.  Highly recommended.

We called Andy because of a leaking garbage disposal which we had replaced by a different plumber with a brand new unit a few months ago. When they got here they found that the gasket just needed to be tightened. Easy fix. In fact they didn't even charge us for the visit. They were very professional and friendly and we will definitely be calling them again!

I had AK Plumbing come to my house on July 22, 2018 to figure out why my toilet was not flushing all the way. He snaked it and couldn't find anything. Then he took the toilet out and flipped it over in the bathtub and snaked it there. He couldn't find anything. He put it back and it started flashing. He didn't know why.  

What he did not tell me is that the wax ring on the bottom of the toilet needed to be replaced because you're not supposed to remove a toilet that has a wax ring and not replace it. It tends to leak after that.  

We are in November now. The toilet again started experiencing problems in October. It wouldn't stop flushing. I called a different guy in to take a look at it and when he heard that AK Plumbing took the toilet out and did not replace the seal, he grew concerned. He then removed the toilet and saw that the seal was not sealed properly saw there was leakage.

I would not recommend AK plumbing to anyone. He didn't know what was wrong with my toilet when he came and did not replace it properly which caused even further damage. I don't trust people who don't tell me things like a wax seal needs to be replaced every time you remove toilet. I would think that is something that a professional plumber would know and tell me when he was here removing he toilet.  

He charged me $225 for his work. It was a waste. I could purchased two new toilets for that price.

I had a plumbing problem with both of my toilets on the same day. I live in an area that I had never used a plumber before. I found AK Plumbing on Yelp. I had previously called a large plumbing company and they took my information and said they would have someone call me. So I called AK Plumbing and they happened to be 10 minutes from my house. Within a half hour of calling them they had both my toilets working again. I might add that the other company called back and AK was already done. A big thanks to Andy and Tony for a fast, professional quality job. I highly recommend AK Plumbing to anyone that needs a plumber.

Honorable plumbers, two words not often associated. Andy and Tony are the exception. Again, these are the two most honorable plumbers. They've helped me out three times now and all three have been 100% effective.

The case that all should know was when my pilot light went out on my water heater. Andy was on vacation but still took my call. He sent me on to Tony for a service call who simply said text me some pictures....next he called me back and walked me through relighting it and bingo, it was all fixed. He did this for free, in the evening (around dinner time), and solved my problem.

They've also fixed a leaky pipe, installed a garbage disposal, and a new toilet. Their fees are nominal compared to the quality of service.

Strongly recommend.

I came home from a week long vacation to find my kitchen sink backing up with dirty water. I'm lucky it didn't flood! I tried to fix the problem myself by plunging the sink and looking for clogs in the pipes below but nothing worked. I called several plumbers looking for someone to come out asap. I was finally able to reach Tony with AK Plumbing and was grateful that he could come out within 2 hours! He showed up with his business partner and snaked the drain. He was able to fix the problem quickly and made sure the water was running smoothly before leaving. Great service! Their work comes with a 30 day guarantee which is nice. If the same problem happens within 30 days, they will come back out for no additional charge. Make sure you have cash or a check to pay as they do not accept credit cards.

These guys are amazing! Called with a sink leak and were available that moment to come help out! We scheduled the next day and they fixed the leak!! Unfortunately we need a new garbage disposal, but they made me feel at ease about the situation! Thanks guys!!

I've used AK plumbing twice now with excellent results. They aren't just drain uncloggers, AK plumbing has pretty extensive technical knowlege about the trade so thye can support old and new work. Tony came out to my house, traced, identified and resolved this issue, and charged a fair and just price. He tends to focus addressing the issue efficiently and economically, rather than generating fees, and that's refreshing.

It was a pleasure to do business with AK plumbing and I recommend them.

We had a toilet which couldn't flush. Called Apache Plumbing and they came out within 1 hour. They fixed the issue very quickly, and it was back up and running. They charge very fair prices, and provide invoices, which I appreciate. They also do sewer inspections with camera line, so I will be referring them to my clients as well. Quality service, honest prices, and quick response times make Apache Plumbing my new Plumber of choice. Thanks Apache Plumbing!!

Tony from AK Plumbing comes to the rescue any time I think I can do my own plumbing repairs and eff them up. I called and he was here within 30 minutes. He quoted me the rate over the phone and also gave me some things I could try to do on my own to fix it without having to have him come out (and save me the $150). I mean, who does that?!?

He fixed the issue in 5 minutes and then asked if I had anything else that needed looking at because he felt bad charging me the $150 when it was so quickly solved. He checked out an issue with my downstairs toilet, fixed that too and all for the price he quoted.Less than an hour later, he was out the door to rescue the next person with a plumbing issue.

Cordial, kind, patient with my DIY plumbing attempts and he gets it done right! I'd write more but I have some water to mop up from my incident and some towels to get in the laundry.

Call Tony!

If you need a new water heater, call Tony, and don't waste your time with anyone else. He doesn't mark up the price for the water heater. He literally has you purchase it over the phone from his supplier, then charges you a flat rate for installation. While I was quoted $2100 from Boyd Plumbing, and $1300 from another - for the same water heater, Tony came in under that and literally had my water heater installed within a couple of hours from the first call.

Very impressed.  I had a  clogged garbage disposal and flushing issues upstairs.  I called the night before, was able to get a morning appointment the next day, and they showed promptly.  Of course the flushing issue seemed did not show up when they tested it.  And they fixed the garbage disposal in about a minute.  I felt pretty silly and they were nice enough to not charge me.  Who does that in today's day in age.  Very good people and they will be my first call the next time we have a plumbing issue.

Just want to share my experience with AK Plumbing. I called them because we have a toilet tank that was dripping constantly. Since I have no understanding of plumbing, I tried all the wrong things, and couldn't fix the problem. They told me over the phone how I could fix the problem myself for $5 in about five minutes. They were absolutely right. Just replaced the flapper from Lowe's and problem solved. I really appreciate the fact that they were willing to save me $125 on a house call!

We were so fortunate to be referred to Tony by a friend of ours! I'm pretty handy around the house, but when one of the valves connected to our washing machine hose necessitated shutting off the household water supply (to avoid flooding the laundry room), we knew we had to call someone. Tony came the next day and was able to quickly assess the issue and help me figure out the parts needed to fix it. Instead of charging me for the simple fix, he walked me through how to do it myself. He didn't even charge us for making the trip! Tony's an honest guy with a great deal of knowledge. We'll definitely be calling him if we run into anymore plumbing issues!

Andy and Tony are the nicest guys. I needed my main line replaced. Not the cleanest job nor the easiest to crawl under my house. I called 1 other plumber but didn't hear back when I told them about the crawl space. Not all plumbers are created equal...These guys show up on time, no change orders, and do what they say they are going to do ON TIME. Plus they guarantee their work for a year!  It feels good knowing I spent my hard earned money on two honest guys who do not  use gimmicks or a sales pitch.

my plumbers of choice, great prices and even better customer service. i called them back recently to help with aligning a sink/ptrap i was remodeling and they came out quick and completed the service will excellent results and added some value as well as going over my water heater to provide guidance on maintenance.  Thanks guys!

Tony A. and Andy K. are awesome! Your plumbing experts indeed! Having a broken water heater and no warm/hot h2o for almost a week was a total nightmare.. Thankfully we found AK Plumbing through Lewis H.! Both Tony and Andy were personable, professional, and efficient. Prices are reasonable and their work is satisfactory! If services are needed again, AK Plumbing will be our first call.

The best plumber in town!! Very efficient! Tony showed up right away and was very easy to communicate with! He kept me in the loop and knew what was wrong right away! He prices are affordable and his work was done on time. Thank you Tony and AK plumbing!

In a nutshell, Tony and Andy are honest, thorough, prompt, and friendly. And for my particular problem, there was a 30-day warranty on the service. One of the guys even tried to help me solve the problem myself over the phone in order to save money on hiring them!

They are now my go-to plumbers.

We have a long-standing issue with palm tree roots and our plumbing backed up on Sunday night. I called Tony Monday morning around 9. He was able to come by 930 bc he happened to be in the neighborhood. He was upfront on pricing telling me how much it was for a 100 foot snake. Turned out we needed the longer snake. He went home and got his longer snake and came back. I also showed him two small issues we had - one for a toilet and the other outside. He said, listen, I can do it for you if you want, but X is the problem. This is a 5 min fix and you can get it at home Depot and it'll be way less than I'd have to charge you. No doubt we'll be using him again. (In fact, I already referred a friend to him.)

Got a call from my tenant that the kitchen sink was totally backed up and no longer functional. Tenant offered to fix the problem himself and my immediate reaction was no way...this is a job for a professional.  I jumped on Yelp and began making calls.  Handymen and plumbers alike were booked, still out of town from the holidays, or simply wouldn't give me any cost/diagnostic info over the phone.  Thankfully, I came across AK Plumbing and reached Tony, the owner, on the first call.  In one brief conversation, Tony informed me of the potential problem and the gadget needed to fix it (which he would have on hand), a reasonable estimate, and arranged to be at the house that afternoon!  

Tony arrived on time and not only tended to the problem we had discussed, but found further damage my tenant had been unaware of.  Tony resolved the issues and got the kitchen sink back to working order.    

AK Plumbing proved to be knowledgeable, courteous, time-efficient, and fairly priced. So glad I left the job to a professional and will definitely call again when the need arises.

I needed a plumber to see if I could split a gas line for my dryer, and the dryer was going to be delivered within hours.  These guys, though they had assessed it properly over the phone, drove all the way across town to confirm it.  They educated me about how this stuff works, told me it could technically be done, but wouldn't be efficient or legal, and saved me tons of time and hassle.  The charge - free.  That's integrity.  I hope I need a plumber in the future, Tony and Andy are getting my call.

Andy & Tony are friendly.
They have affordable pricing & were able to come the same day I called in.
They installed my gas dryer to our current gas pipe line lickity-split.
And took the time to explain any questions I had.
Super customer service :)
I would highly recommend thier service.
