We were leaving for a trip and, OF COURSE, we had a plumbing issue where our garbage disposal was leaking under our sink. We had a family staying in our home to housesit so we knew this situation couldn't wait until we got back. We called Mike Testa Plumbing and felt as though we got the royal treatment. They were so quick to respond and send someone out. The plumber brought a new garbage disposal and it was an easy situation to handle. If you want professional services and an all-around great company to work with, this is your place.
Thank you so much!

My grandkids showed up for a stay, and as always, the toilet was jammed.
Called Mike Testa in a panic at 8 am.  As usual the sewer line had to be reamed out some 20 feet .  Mike Testas guy had everything working by 10.  He drove over from San Francisco.  Fast, incredible customer service.  WIll use they again soon, my grandkids are coming back for another visit!

Their plumber, Patrick, replaced 3 of our toilets for us and did an amazing job. He was on time, very polite, and extremely efficient. Would highly recommend requesting Patrick for any work you need done.

This company is fantastic.  We had a gas line installed by them.  The quote was accurate, the time they estimated the job to take was accurate and they were prompt and kept us informed as the work was being completed.  A few weeks later we were experiencing issues with an old water heater that was in our home and Mike Testa Plumbing was to the rescue!  Kyle went above and beyond with his communications with the manufacturer and myself.  He is an excellent plumber and made us feel at ease and comfortable with the whole process which would have otherwise been stressful.  A big shoutout to Franklin (the servicer who did the work).  

Thank you Mike Testa Plumbing! We will be using you for years to come!!

Called Saturday morning for a sewer clean out. All of a sudden my sewer line was backed up. Ben came out that afternoon and cleared the line of my tree roots. It was a strict hourly rate with no surcharge for weekends. He was professional and courteous. Would definitely call them again.

I recently switched plumbers to Mike Testa Plumbing.  I knew nothing about the company and thought I'd give it a try.  My first job was an annual clean-out of our kitchen and main drain lines.  The plumber, Aaron was friendly and efficient and, left me with such a positive reaction that I thought I'd use them for my next plumbing job.  Soon after I needed a toilet replacement.  This time it was Ben who replaced and installed the new toilet.  Ben's friendly manner and patience (the wrong model was in the truck and the correct model had to be re-delivered) was exactly what we're looking for in a plumber.  I just called up for some new plumbing work, they asked for some pictures of the fixtures, and, after sending them, I and was told it can be scheduled tomorrow - this is such a difference from what I'm used to when jobs were typically scheduled a week or two out.  I'm a satisfied and happy local customer of Mike Testa Plumbing!

Big kudos from us to Mike Testa Plumbing.  The backflow preventer for our garden irrigation needed to be re-installed because of pipe breaks resulting from the original shoddy installation (by someone else).   Their plumber did a terrific job and was very knowledgable and capable.  He also overcame a potentially difficult problem that, if not solved, would have cost us a lot of money and no end of hassle.  Thanks for that!  I would call Mike Testa Plumbing again in a heartbeat.

I called Mike Testa plumbing initially because of the Diamond Certification. The project was to replace 2 old enamel kitchen sinks with 2 stainless steel sinks. They sent out a project manager, Don, who helped me make sure I had all the parts I needed for the job. Not being a remodeling type of person, I needed some handholding and he walked me through the process and reviewed the parts with me before we started the job.  

When the time came for the job, it was trickier than it originally seemed because after 6 weeks of phone calls, I was not able to find a tile company willing to come out and cut the sink holes bigger. They all were busy remodeling whole kitchens and bathrooms and did not want this small job.  So I used a handyman who did the best he could but really I needed a tile company to prepare the cut out properly for the sink installation. In the end, Don and the plumber understood my predicament, got creative, and were able to get my sinks installed.

I haven't gotten the final bill and yes I know it's not going to be cheap, but I feel like I got a quality job. I'm very happy with the installation and the whole process of working with Mike Testa plumbing, from the office staff to the planning and technicians. In the future they will be my first phone call for any plumbing needs I have.

Wonderful service , way to expensive . I had them out here for a service on the water heater . Two man came out here one was a student he didn't nothing about this water heater he call his boss after he arrived at the job he had to call tech support twice because after his 30 years experience he was not familiar with that kind of water heater . He told me if there not familiar with any kind of products we have to call tech support of course there charge the costumer as well for waiting on the phone. Button line for 2.5 hours of work the bill was $ 400 no parts include.
Shop around before you use there service .

I couldn't believe the charges to fix a leaking bathroom faucet and to replace a new kitchen faucet the bill is $691.05. I provided the kitchen faucet, I know Moen's  price to replaced it is $180.00. I don't know why I called Mike Testa. What a mistake, Testa claims 4.25 hours, unbelievable charges as a  Senior labor rate of $160.00 per hour. The young man Testa sent to do the job. We weren't sure if the young man was up to do the job. Anyway, my husband 86 and I 74.  Now we understand, why unscrupulous companies take advantage of Seniors. For our fix income that is thousands. Well, live and learn, If you want to waist money go with Mike Testa.

Needed a thermalcouple replacement.  They told me it would take 4 hours to change the part and they were going to charge me $140.00 for the part.  

I bought the part for $66.00 and Precision Plumbing Service came and changed the part our in literally 15 minutes.

Six stars if that were possible! Mike Testa Plumbing did a great job replacing a tankless water heater - they helped us select the right model, and the total cost was much less than that quoted by another of the major Marin plumbing service firms.  Our service person (Darin IIRC) showed up on time, and did a very nice installation.  Also helped us with the building permit process.  Definitely will use these folks again when plumbing tasks come up.

First time I used this company. Gene Burch plumbing was too heavily booked & couldn't fit in a loyal customer but this company came to the rescue. Had 4 issues to be addressed and not only was Patrick here exactly on time but finished in 1 1/4 hour. Fixed a leak and fixed two toilet flushers. In and out! Great service and didn't cost an arm & a leg. Will definitely use this company again.

We were sold an faucet from Testa that was damaged. Instead of replacing it we paid for 5 service calls because of a leaky faucet. When we finally contacted Mike he challenged us by saying How do you know the faucet is leaking?  REALLY!!   When you see water running out of the sides of the faucet it is insulting to be questioned.  I would never recommend this plumbing service unless you want to wash $1800. down the drain.

Great plumbing experience! I got a call telling me my plumber (Joe) was on the way, he showed up on time (actually, a few minutes early), scoped out the problem, told me what needed to be done, then did it. Problem solved in a little over an hour, and with no surprises. Would highly recommend.

Mike Testa Plumbing is our new go to plumber. Joe was exceptional. Prompt, clean, courteous and explained things really well. Gave us great tips that saved us money. Rather than install the new toilet I bought, he recommended a different one that was really what we wanted- better height :). and gave me a recommendation of where to buy it for less. When he came back to install he didn't start a new ticket.
Quality work and worth the money.

Finally! A plumbing company comprised of honest, straightforward, professional workers who supply fair estimates and provide excellent work.  The very best!  Everyone we dealt with was excellent!  Mike Testa was the first one to come out to our home, he supplied us with fair estimates (we received a few estimates from other companies who recommended work way beyond what was necessary).  The employees who came out to do all our work were professional, polite, and honest. Everything was completed on time and to our standards. So thankful we found them!

After experiencing an emergency commercial water heater breakdown at our overnight retreat center on a Saturday afternoon, Tom and Kyle came to our rescue! After our previous plumber let us down, I took a chance and called Mike Testa Plumbing. I left a concerned voicemail to Tom and he called me back right away with a promise to do his very best to help the situation. He arrived an hour later to pronounce our 100 gallon water heater dead.

All of the local supply houses were closed and we had no hot water for guest showers, or our commercial dish washer. The dead water heater was leaking all over the basement floor! What a disaster! Tom personally called every contact he could think of and miraculously came through with a brand new water heater that he had delivered from 3 hours away!! The new water heater was installed and functioning within 6 hours of Tom's assessment.

The total job cost less than what we were originally quoted. Tom said he would rather quote us higher just to be safe. We are so impressed at the kindness, honesty, and professionalism of Tom and Kyle from Mike Testa Plumbing! Having never used their services before, we were treated like long time clients. That being said, Mike Testa Plumbing has gained our business and referrals.

Mike and his team have been around for a long time and are solidly professional and very reasonable and competitive from my experience.  I have renovated 2 homes in the past 10 years, and in both cases, Mike and his team performed wonderfully.  I could not get another plumbing company to be anywhere near as competitive.

As a real estate broker, I also call on local companies to evaluate sewer lines, hot water heaters and other home systems and unlike other companies that sell you on the prescription that 'nothing here works - replace it', Mike and his people are very honest and have not ever attempted to gouge me.

My wife and I have experienced 4 people from their team and they have all been a breeze to work with.

Patrick from Mike Testa Plumbing did some work for me 12/26/18.  He arrived right on time with a positive attitude. He gave me detailed information about the plumbing work he was going to do before he started, and even advised me that some work I was told by someone else I needed, really wasn't necessary.  As he worked, he made sure that any mess was minimized, and worked efficiently.  The total cost for what he did was about a third of what another plumber wanted to charge me!  I thought his work was excellent... I was very pleased with all aspects of the job he did. Everything he did has held up, and  I have had no plumbing problems since he was here.

Tom came out yesterday to help unclog a few drains.  It took him less than 5 minutes.  He was courteous, professional, and friendly.  Before leaving he asked if anything else in the house needed to be checked.  We reached out to several plumbers in the area, and Mike Testa plumbing was the only one to respond in less than 24 hours.

Love these guys. They did all the plumbing on our remodel and did a great job. Most recently, I had an issue that required a fair degree of complexity, and needed some creative thinking how to route a few lines. Joe M. came out and quickly diagnosed the problem, explained his solution and then executed quickly and flawlessly.

Our water main suddenly broke and Tom stopped by to fix it. The problem turned out to be rather complicated but he stayed until it was done, then followed up the next day to make sure the repair was working. Great service, conscientious, and knows his stuff. We highly recommend!

I have had Mike Testa Plumbing to my house a few times now.  I love it that they have Saturday appointments and they do not charge extra for Saturdays.  Tom has been to my house a few times and is great, very thorough, fixed the problem, and put some clamps on my disposal hose to help keep it round instead of flattening.  I highly recommend Mike Testa,
Diamond Certified (which I just noticed this Sat. on Tom's shirt) honest, good rates, and they take their shoes off!  They are great!

We have called on Mike Testa plumbing five times in recent years. They have always been fantastic - recommending exactly what is needed to get the job done most efficiently and cost-effectively; never trying to up sell us something we don't need. That kind of integrity builds a lot of trust! Today, Tom came by to fix a toilet, two drains, and a loose faucet fixture. He not only fixed everything perfectly and efficiently, he identified and fixed another issue he noticed which could have resulted in costly damage later on. These guys are trustworthy, friendly, and very fair in their pricing. I'm so glad to have them as a resource in maintaining our home!

I didn't use Mike Testa because when I called to make an appointment, I was told that their base price is $160 to come out for the first hour and $150 for every 15 mins. over that.  It's not the amount I question but I was told that the clock for charging me STARTS when they leave their prior appointment.  If their prior appointment is in southern Marin and they leave for my place during rush hour and say it takes them an hour to get to me in Northern Marin and they spend an hour at my house, that means the first hour they would actually be in my house would cost me $600 at their rate of $150 per 15 mins?!?!  Plus the $160 for their time sitting in traffic for a total of $760 (Not including any additional new plumbing parts that I may need). I have never heard of this kind of pricing. I gave them 3 stars for at least telling me this upfront.  I would have been very upset if I found out after the fact.

Great experience.  Kyle, Don and team were knowledgeable, courteous and professional.  They quoted me upfront pricing for each of my jobs but that didn't prevent them from coming back several times to make sure things were running properly.  I definitely plan to use them again for future jobs.

Called Testa to do a sewer survey after calling a local company who said they couldn't do it. Testa came as scheduled ( clock started when he left the shop for the appt....as noted by another Yelper ).  Took a bit of research and calling before the survey was done, but over all happy with the job.

Way overpriced and inefficient.  My workman caused a toilet to overflow by stuffing it with paper (he was not there to fix it) and caused a leak in my kitchen.  Really stupid people working in the office that couldn't get it the bill straight and they all lied after agreeing to change the bill to reflect the work that was actually done.  Keep away!!

I've been using Mike Testa for all of my plumbing problems and remodels for many years.  I always receive a high quality of customer service, prompt service, friendly contractors and piece of mind.  Prices are affordable and the company as a whole has been very reliable.  I tell all of my friends and family to use them!

Proceed with Caution.  I had an initial positive experience with Mike Testa to repair a water heater which ultimately failed.  Instead of doing the right thing to make the repair right, we got stuck with the bill and a lot of bad attitude from the front desk.

Never Again.

I have used this company for both home improvement projects and urgent/emergency repair needs.  In each case I found the people I dealt with to be friendly and helpful.  They arrived on time, got the job done, and I was charged a fair price (I know because I compared price with other companies!).  Just last week I referred Mike Testa Plumbing to my closest friends after the plumber they normally used couldn't come for several days to fix an urgent problem.  My friends reported to me that they got prompt service at a fair price from Mike Testa and his crew.  It is wonderful to be able to confidently recommend this company to the people I care most about!

I am a tough customer and I say,  

Use this company for competent, friendly, efficient service without hesitation!

Wonderful, Reliable, ON TIME service! Mr. Testa took the time to explain what the problem was and had suggestions for me to remedy the problem if it reoccurs in the future- even gave me tips!  He did repair  my problems today but left me with tips for the future to try.  BUT wait, this is not all

When given a wndow for a visit, I requested that I be placed near the end of the window because a local appointment I had should have been completed shortly after the start of the window.  Just as I had estimated, Mr. Testa was at my door, in fact he startled me when i opened the door to let air in.  BTW my call was returned in 3 hours and scheduled in less than 18!

Today is the fourth time I've called the folks at Mike Testa Plumbing with great results. Today they sent Tom again straight away and he fixed my 15 year old garbage disposal with a few simple tricks and no new parts, etc. Tom is honest, professional and friendly. He even replaced the nozzle of my Grohe faucet with another one I had from another sink without any extra cost while he was here. I asked another company about this years ago and was told it would cost $900 and that they would need to completely take apart the entire unit and replace everything! I always appreciate that Tom takes the extra few minutes to make sure everything is back in place to prevent any future leaks. If you need any plumbing service, call Mike Testa Plumbing before any other company. I had unfortunate results with every other plumbing service I've used before finding them. I am so happy to be saving money and headaches galore.

I had a very positive experience with Tom from Mike Testa plumbing.  We had purchased a new washer and without going into detail, there were problems with the installation.  Tom immediately diagnosed the issues and recitified them.  Happy client!

I've used Mike Testa Plumbing for many years and have always had a great experience.  I always request Tom since he is so thorough in his work and a delight to have in my home.  I highly recommend Testa Plumbing and his ace plumber, Tom!

I had the unfortunate experience of hiring Mike Testa Plumbing to fix a leaky kitchen faucet and hot water that would not turn on in a bathroom with an old fixture.  Nothing got fixed. Four months later a got a bill in the mail for $200 plus dollars. It was the bill from the plumbers time in May. OK, but nothing was fixed and I got tired of
waiting  for them to follow-up so I hired a reliable plumber and both problems were fixed immediately.  I paid Testa's bill, put it in the mail and told them in a note I would never use them or recommend them.  Then, a man from their office called to harass me and tell me I was wrong.  Hence, the reason for this review.  Take care of your customers and you will have a viable business.  I avoided the first two calls from the office man and was caught off guard on my cell phone. He never asked what went wrong but told me how great they were.  Very sad.  I paid the bill to do the right thing.
Stay far away from this plumbing company.

Well my experience was positive. I had a water pipe break due to the recent weather. They were able to send someone the same say and he fixed it and was gone in an hour.  Rate was pretty standard 145/hr but first time client rec'd a 20% discount.  I'm happy.

I have been using Mike Testa Plumbing for 25 years.  They have always been reliable, honest, and they do the job right the first time.  What I like best about them is their honesty, they don't try to up-sale you and their rates are reasonable.  I would never think of calling another company.
