Van the Plumber

I first found Van on Yelp when I decided to change plumbers.  I have called him on at least 4 occasions for 4 different plumbing jobs.  Every time he has texted or called me back in a timely manner.  He is polite, professional, honest and usually is able to show up pretty quickly.  So far I have not had anything urgent happen.  He has saved me money when I told him what I wanted to do or purchase.  He has also explained why I should  or should not do or purchase something.  He always gives me the best recommendation.
There were two times when he could have just taken my money to do something I thought needed to be done, but he didn't.  Instead, he told me on one occasion, that I didn't need what I thought I did and on another occasion, he made an adjustment to something and said I didn't need  to purchase a new 'whatever.'   I wouldn't use anyone else.  Plus, he is such a nice guy!

Van the Plumber came right away to unclog my toilet. Totally professional. I highly recommend him.

Van is my go to plumber! I don't really think you'll find a more knowledgeable and competent plumber than Van! And on top of that he's a super nice guy and his prices are reasonable. If you're ever looking for a plumber I suggest you look no further than Van!

PS during this time of COVID it was reassuring that Van wore a mask & gloves the whole time he was in our home.

Van is very responsive to his customers. His meticulous attention to detail leaves the repair in better shape than when he came. I'm grateful to have such a master plumber on my team to maintain my home.

Definitely my first call for ALL plumbing needs!  We recently had an outside spigot and pipes replaced.  Van scheduled an appointment quickly and showed up on time.  He identify the issues with our old spigot and clearly explained the options, risks, and costs associated with replacing spigot and updating outside water lines, which were very outdated.  He was able to customize pipes to fit the required space inside and anchored the new spigot to the outside brick wall.  

Van also had to deal with issues shutting off the water in our house.  Our main water shutoff was not working properly, but Van knew alternative ways to shut the water off externally and worked through some of these troubles without hesitation.  Van clear takes pride in his craft and does it with a pleasant demeanor.

One word. WOW.
Van is a needle in a haystack in the plumbing industry. I was blown away by his straight forward pricing, kindness, and above all his honesty. None of this is an exaggeration by any means. From here on out the only plumber on my contact list.
Also, he came out within 30 minutes on a Sunday!

Our daughter was rushed to the emergency room and we had to go babysit out 21 month old granddaughter for a few days. Their kitchen sink was leaking and the water was turned off. She is a teacher and money is tight so they had not fixed it. My wife and I could not live without water in the sink so we called our old friend Van the Plumber who rushed out to help us. It turned out we needed a new faucet and Van changed his schedule around to come back a second time to install the new faucet.
He is so good, so responsive and so kind. I could never think of having another plumber touch any of our plumbing needs. Give him a try and you will feel the same way.

Called Van the plumber to fix leaking sink and running toilet. Van was friendly throughout the entire process - from appointment booking to explaining repair options/ pricing. He was efficient and seemingly thorough with his repairs. Prices seemed reasonable for a master plumber. Through my experience with Van, I come to understand why he is very highly recommended on Nextdoor, Yelp, Angies List, every other consumer review site. THANK YOU Van for expert and friendly service. You are our go-to plumber going forward. Grazie Mille

Wonderful Plummer. Does great work. Trustworthy and reliable. Responds fast to your requests. Will definitely use him again in the future for all our plumbing needs. Would highly recommend.

Terrible, terrible, terrible. If I could leave zero stars I would. I have to call my insurance company after Van basically left a minor job and left us a major one. Came to my house to assess a couple of small issues. Poor communication from the start, which should have been a red flag. Started his visit by telling my wife to wrap a towel around a leak by our water main. Was in a rush to leave the job and 3 floors of house are now flooded, and we are calling our insurance company. Van took no responsibility, and further insulted by saying well at least he didn't charge for the visit. Stay away!
