Description
My Company's motto is very simple. Do it once, do it right the first time. I am what they call a Mom & Pop company. The reason for this is so I can control the quality of every install and material while providing said installs at affordable pricing. In layman terms... All work is done by Me. If you are interested in a company that does work per current or above California Plumbing Code and (wait for it)... a Licensed Plumber, you have found the right company. Please note that the bigger companies hire unlicensed technicians who work under their bosses license. While this is legal and I have met some good Plumbers out there in the past, vast majority of them are nothing more then overpriced handyman with very limited knowledge of the plumbing world. I specialize in water heater installs, sewer line replacements and fixes, small and big house remodels, gas line replacements, toilet fixes and replacements, garbage disposal and let's face it anything plumbing related. Please call me to schedule a free estimate. I look forward to teaching you how to maintain your plumbing system and save you money to minimize plumbing visits and expenses.

Bart came out a few years ago to unclog a kitchen sink. It was a tough clog and he spent a long time unclogging it, but got the job done. He also went into my crawlspace and inspected the structure of the drainage pipes to ensure there were no problems there. He explained everything that he did, why the pipes were clogging, and provided several tips to prevent this from happening in the future.
Three years later, I had another clog. Initially I couldn't remember or find Bart's info so I got another plumber to come out and unclog it. During that process they told me that I had a small leak in the crawlspace and quoted me a ridiculous amount of money to fix it. I declined and called a few other plumbers to get a second opinion. This time I found Bart and he came out for free to assess and provide another quote to fix the leak, except that he found no leak! He had me run water from all the faucets, flush the toilets, and found no leaks and nothing wrong with the pipes in my crawlspace.
I highly recommend Bart as a knowledgable and honest plumber. I'll definitely call him again for future work.
I wasn't able to use this company's services, but the owner, Bart, was great at communicating. Apparently, the I needed an A-license contractor, but the vast majority of plumbers hold a C-license. Rather than leave it up to chance, Bart asked me to call him to clarify any confusion so as not to waste anyone's time. Given Bart's attention to deal even in this matter, I wouldn't hesitate to call him to get a quote in the future.
We decide to replace our old toilets recently. Bart was very resourceful and patient to address our questions and concerns over the phone. He came on-site and did a free inspection and recommended the toilet to install in each bathroom. A few days later he came with the new toilets and spent the time to install them firmly and cleanly.
One of the toilet seat was a bit off the center after installation. I actually didn't notice that before he pointed out. He then spent the next 30min triaging what was off, and eventually made everything perfectly symmetrical. I am very impressed with his craftsmanship and meticulous attitude.
Cost wise, Bart's quote ranks reasonably in the middle (I had quotes from 6 different sources), and what we get is top brand TOTO as well as top notch service. The !/$ ratio is hard to beat. I would definitely recommend Bart to friends and family in the future.
I hired Bart at Everclear to fix a toilet leak, unclog a sink drain and fix a bathtub handle last week based on his Yelp rating and the fact that he is the owner operator of his business. This means more to me because I've found owner-operators take a lot of pride in their work since it's their reputation on the line. Bart was a super nice, hardworking professional plumber. He was courteous and respectful of my home, wearing shoe coverings whenever inside. He was happy to explain things about the repair along the way, and shared the do's and don'ts based on his years of experience. Pricing was up front and very reasonable! Bart's my guy and I plan to refer my friends and clients to him from now on.

I have used them for several plumbing needs--including major projects.
The most recent one is installing a whole home water filtration system. It turns out the city water is not as great as you think it is.
Bart is the only plumber I would call for those needs. PS he is great with dogs.
Bart is a life-saver! We had a clogged toilet on a Friday evening. My fiance tried to plunge it for an hour, to no avail.
Finally, we realized that we needed to call in a professional for this one. We gave Bart a call, and within 20 minutes he arrived at our apartment. He quickly assessed the issue and brought his equipment in to clear the clog. Along the way, he was calmly explaining everything he was doing and answering all of our questions. He was able to clear the blockage within an hour.
We're extremely glad we called Bart, because the clog might've flooded our apartment if we waited any longer. Overall, Bart was extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and professional, and I would recommend him for any plumbing needs. I'll definitely be calling Bart the next time we have a problem.

Amazing company! Bart was a true professional. He found what was wrong with both of my toilets and fixed them in a jiffy. I highly recommend this company for anyone who is having any type of plumbing issue!

Bart was very responsive, efficient and professional. He repaired both my kitchen sink and bathroom sink in less than an hour. He charged a flat rate of $245 per sink, which is standard. My regular plumber is cheaper, but I will gladly use Everclear in a pinch in the future.
Great service, professional communication and quick responses. Add to that reasonable prices and my shower and I are really happy right now
We were evaluating a possible natural gas line and Bart came by to take a look and give us a free quote. He was professional and extremely knowledgeable. We ended up not moving forward with the project based on his advice. We'll definitely be working with him for all future plumbing and drain projects!
We returned home from a mini-vacay to a wet water heater bay. Although our house was out of their service area, when I called Everclear they asked me to send them pics of our leaky fittings so they could provide advice. Not only did they inform me the water heater was not the problem they recommended upgrading the fitting being replaced to brass for better water safety and part longevity. Even though they knew they couldn't take the job due to location they provided excellent advice that could have a long-term positive effect on the health of our family. What a great business!! If you are lucky enough to live in their service territory I highly recommend Everclear!

The phone call was answered promptly. An appointment was scheduled on the same day. Gave a two hours window for the appointment & arrived early. I didn't have to wait long at all. Bart was friendly and professional with his work.
He installed the toilet fill valve in less than 15 minutes. Made sure everything was in working order and clean up the area. Gave me a short educational review of how the parts work. Bart really impressed me with his knowledge and efficiency. Would recommend him to anyone else that have plumbing issues.
Bart is great in every way. He is responsible and honest person. He was the only one from all the bunch of people I reached out to who gave a direct amount he's about to charge. We talked on the phone confirming details, so he came, did the job and was gone - everything was seamless and clean. That's what one would expect from a master.

Bart is outstanding: he responded quickly to my Yelp request with specifics of what could be wrong, provided an initial estimate in the response, and arranged to come quickly. He fixed two toilets and fixed a water line issue with our dishwasher. He's very responsive, is professional and did the jobs quickly and cleanly. He was happy to provide me with specifics of the issues and fixes, and offered advice on good brands of plumbing (Toto) and how to know when issues may be arising with our toilets (e.g., movement of base).

I needed someone to snake the main line and Bart responded quickly with a reasonable quote and fixed the issue the next day. He's professional, honest and went out of his way to troubleshoot and explain the problem (roots in old clay pipes). Even though it will take a bigger job to address the root cause, he fixed the immediate issue and gave advice on next steps. I would recommend Bart for any plumbing needs.

Bart is amazing! Very professional, knowledgable, friendly and honest. His prices are very reasonable, he always shows up on time and does amazing work. All of our tenants have given great feedback about him and his work - will definitely continue to call him for any plumbing needs.

I bought a Toto Washlet and despite a claim in the review I read that it was easy to install, I found it to be anything but. I finally gave up and decided to call a plumber (something my wife suggested I do five hours before).
I called Bart Saturday morning and a few hours later he was over at my place. It took him about ~60 minutes to finish the job and the final price came in right what I was expecting.
He was a pleasure to deal with and very competent. I'll be using his services again. Thanks Bart!
Our water heater's drain valve broke, while it was under warranty, the contractor who came saw that our vent was not to code and refused to fix it. I went and got 3-4 quotes. Bart from Everclear was not the cheapest, but it was the most reasonably priced while 1) showing great knowledge in his craft (relating to code and I verified that), and 2) he was the easiest to communicate with. There were cheaper quotes, but based on my experience, those folks would not have done the job properly. I went with Bart and not only did he did an outstanding job fixing the vent that was broken, but he also fixed my water heater drain valve, saving me time and money from the other contractor. This is the kind of business we need to support more, people who are 1) honest, 2) not using bottom of the price to bait you, and 3) care about customer satisfaction and go above and beyond. I 100% recommend Bart.

Bart was very prompt in handling my plumbing problems. He is great to deal with and very fair with pricing. Will be using him for any future plumbing needs.
The very worst plumbing -drain experience ever! Because he was not working Thursday, I was able to fully explain to him on the phone, that I already had my drain snaked a week earlier, but no camera/video - and I really needed a camera/video to record the issue in case I needed further work. I also asked for his warranty - he said 30 days! This was very clear. What I needed was the SNAKE/CLEAR & CAMERA/VIDEO! He snaked the drain, and purportedly ran his $10K camera in it. I paid him and figured it might take a few days to transfer it to a video for me. My toilet & shower backed up 7 days later & I requested (1) the CD or recording of the drain & return visit. He said he did not record it cuz I didn't ask for it!!! What a lie & joke! Paying for camera work is extra & expensive!!! And, when you film something - you expect the record. He said he would have to start all over again (charge me $750). The WORST.

Best ever! No job too large or small. Quick response, reliable neat and tidy. Live these guys!
We called Bart at Everclear for a simple clog issue with the washer and kitchen. It did not turn out to be simple, as Bart was able to assess some long-standing problems with the related pipes based on how old they were. He was very honest and clear with how he explained the problems to me, and he was extremely fair with the pricing of his work. In all, he had to replace a p-trap assembly and at least 60 feet of pipe in the crawlspace, and he showed me the rusting and clogging of the old pipe. The job and assessment was done in a day in a half, and even helped out on a couple of smaller plumbing issues around the house. Bart is obsessed with plumbing, and I would recommend him to anyone with any level of plumbing issue in their home!
Very professional, punctual, courteous and we are very happy with the service. Highly recommend Everclear Plumbing!
Amazing. Messaged via yelp on a Sunday night after finding a leak under our house. Bart messages me very quickly and we scheduled an appointment for the next day. He arrived on time and was very nice. He gave a fair quote and fixed the problem quickly. Will definitely be using again.

Years ago when I bought my home I had to replace the water heater. I was fortunate enough to find Bart who not only replaced my water heater but was able to find a creative way to create a drainage system should the area where my water heater was stored flooded (and all within code).
Based on his previous work, I decided to hire Bart again as we had a leak between the master bathroom and guest bathroom downstairs. Bart went through what he believed the error to be and was able to fix it in a quick and timely manner (and I appreciated his thorough clean-up afterwards). One of the best things about working with Bart is that he is honest and you can tell by his work ethic that he takes pride in the little things.
I hope to not run into anymore plumbing issues but I'm glad to know that if I do have any problems, I have a good, reliable, honest plumber to count on.

Bart provided great, timely service, and a bit of education. Highly recommended.
Bart replaced a bathroom faucet for my daughter's bathroom. He was honest, knowledgeable and professional. He explained everything very well and made recommendations on where to get a more reliable faucet while saving money at the same time, and was willing to come back another day once the new faucet arrived. Honestly he was the best plumber i hired in the last 10 years. Highly recommended!
Great expert plumbing service! Fast response, very professional and knowledgeable, well priced. The expert staff was able to immediately diagnose the problem with our in-sik errator and kitchen sink and was able to fix it. Brought all the necessary tools and equipment. Shared tips and tricks on how to prevent future challenges. Provided free quote up front. Very pleased with this service provider and saved the name/number for future needs. Highly recommend.
Bart is an amazing human! And besides being a knowledgeable and skilled plumber with tons of experience he has integrity and goes above and beyond. Saved my business more than once and his rates are extremely fair. Highly recommend him.

The pipes to our washer dryer were clogged and was flooding our floors. Bart responded within minutes and went out of his way to arrive in short time to solve the emergency. Job was done within an hour to complete satisfaction.
You will not find a better, more trustworthy, reliable and professional plumber out there! No matter the size of the job, go with Everclear. I have been working with Bart for nearly 3 years. I own an old home and have experienced my share of plumbing issues and Bart has fixed every one - from replacing an old garbage disposal, unclogging pipes/drains, replacing rusted out pipes and replacing our bathroom vanity and toilet. He works quickly, cleanly and his prices are great. He is extremely responsive, provides clarity on what the issue is and offers different ways to resolve the issue. I have worked with many plumbers over the years and Bart is by very far the best! His work is fabulous and I couldn't recommend him more!
Bart was efficient and resourceful and solved our plumbing problems very quickly. I would use him next time and highly recommend his services.

Bart was quick to respond to my call to inspect a leaky kitchen faucet. He did careful inspection and recommended faucet change instead of spending more time fixing the leak. He did the inspection free of charge! Thank you again for the help!

Bart is excellent. Ended up having to come to our house 2x for a tricky faucet repair, always on time, super nice and a true expert in his field. I'd recommend him to anyone and will definitely be using Everclear Plumbing in the future.
Bart came by today to diagnose a sink line clog. Ended up being a quick fix and he stayed to look over the aging pipes in my home and advised on what to look out for going forward. Super helpful, highly recommend!

I had a few problem toilets at my office. I gave Bart a call and he was able to squeeze me in within two hours. He was very professional and knew his stuff. He was very honest and up front with what needed to happen and how much it should cost. He had all of our plumbing issues fixed within a hour.
Hopefully I won't need him again very soon, but I will recommend him to my friends and I recommend him to you!
We worked with Bart and he was excellent- punctual, reasonable, communicated well, and also educated us about how to care for our own plumbing. Would recommend to anyone.

Bart was very responsive and honest! We are having trouble with our hot water pressure and just assumed since the pipes are old, we'd have to get the house repiped. Bart showed up ahead of schedule and took the time to check everything thoroughly. He said it could be a couple things and really wanted it to be an easy fix for us. Turns out we will need to repipe but really appreciated Bart's concern and honesty.

Bart from Everclear is great. He's a professional, honest, friendly guy who's upfront and doesn't overcharge. I had a clogged drain and he arrived on time, got it resolved, and charged me the price he quoted even though it was more effort than he anticipated. He even gave me a warranty on his fix which he made good on when a sink started dripping again. I will be calling him again!
Another plumbing company said we needed a huge process that would've cost many thousands of dollars. Bart Niciejewski, owner of Everclear, proposed a possible solution that wouldn't even require us to hire him. If that doesn't work, he proposed a back-up plan - also a 10th of the price of the first guys. How many of us have met a plumber that customer-friendly? He's awesome. We have an old building, so we'll definitely need more plumbing work in the future, and we'll definitely hire Bart.
One of the kids broke a sprinkler PVC pipe which caused a water geyser to erupt in the backyard. Called Bart and he showed up early within the window of service and after less than an hour he was able to cut, cap and fix the break. He was professional and very personable. Would not hesitate to call him again with any plumbing issue.

Bart came out to clear our multiple plumbing emergencies . He has to crawl under the house, replace a large section of pipe and then snake out more sections. Considering he was working under a warranty claim, I feel he went above and beyond to help us out. Much Appreciated!

Bart went out of his way to schedule at a time that was best for us. He was friendly, honest, and communicative. He was also quick, and did a great job! We will definitely be using him from here on out.
Excellent service and totally honest. So helpful and willing to schedule around or times. He totally saved us from rip off plumbers!!!
The water pressure was way too high at my new home so I reached out to Everclear plumbing through a recommendation from a friend. Bart, the owner, came out the next day to take a look. His estimate was reasonable compared to others I received so we asked him to do the work. He installed a pressure regulator at the incoming line in about 1 hour and we were able to tell the difference right away - water was no longer exploding out of our faucets.
He also checked my water heater to make sure it was in good condition and found that the expansion tank was not functioning. He patiently explained to me the importance of this part to overall health of my pipes. After the discussion, he actually headed over to home depot to pick up a new expansion tank and replaced it for me. I was impressed with Bart's easy manner, clean work, and general care he employs that I wound up recommending his services to my neighbor across the street. I believe he's now the go-to plumber for a few of us on my street.

On a Sunday, Everclear Plumbing called me back within a few minutes after I left a voice message for them. Bart gave me a quote for doing the work on Sunday and without me asking, he told me what it would cost if I could wait until Monday. Since I had guests in town, I had him do the work on Sunday. I made an appointment, but I had to move it out 30 minutes when I hit traffic getting home. Bart said that the new time was OK and was waiting there when I got home. He was very nice and professional. He covered the floor with plastic, got the work done, wiped up the floor, and took everything with him. I highly recommend him.

Bart and Everclear are terrific. We needed a plumber on short notice to fix a backed up toilet and shower on a Saturday. Bart was super responsive, showed up as scheduled, was very professional and knowledgeable and got the job done right the first time for a reasonable price. Bart went above and beyond, he not only fixed the toilet and shower, but also cleaned the bathroom (it was nasty from the toilet/shower issue) and solved a water pressure problem without additional charge. I highly recommend Bart and Everclear.
Everclear plumbing is awesome. No hassle. Completely honest. Efficient. We were thrilled to have Bart help us out. He gets our strongest recommendation.
