Best Businesses in Oakland, CA

Eugene does fantastic work!  He helped me hang 3 large shelves on a very tricky plaster covered brick wall in my kitchen. He was thorough and skilled in his work, made sure I was happy with the product as we went, brought all the tools and supplies needed and was correct with his time estimate and pricing. Eugene is a great handyman and I would recommend to anyone!

We had water standing in the new dishwasher. Home warranty company specialist came in and without looking just said we'd need a new appliance. I thought the issue might be the drain instead, and was determined to find a reliable plumber.

Niko told me over the phone that he doesn't work with appliances, but can come by and check if it's a drain clog. He fit us in his schedule the same day, found and fixed the issue in a matter of minutes and for a reasonable rate. He was on time, polite, professional and quick.

We will definitely use his services again.

Mr. Harrison was very professional and helpful. He resolved my problem instantly on my AC unit and will refer him to all my family and friends.

The company is fast and responsive I booked an appointment online the night before and a technician was at my home by 2pm the next day. Text messages were sent throughout the day indicating who would be onsite along with their photo. COVID precautions were communicated prior to the tech arriving. The tech Gert V. And his assistant Juan were polite and courteous when entering my home. Gert listened, assessed and gave me a quote. He made recommendations for future.
I was happy to have Bell Plumbing take care of my issue by replacing the old kitchen ptrap. Easy, no hassles.
I will look to use their service in the future!

I called on Alfa after I tried (and failed) to install a Toto bidet. The toilet was just a super challenging setup. Jorge and his team were excellent to work with and kept at it even after it seemed like the project was a bust. In fact, a second van came with the owner (Jorge) and the team of two worked through it together, troubleshooting and fixing issues as they arose. They were really cool about the hole thing and refused a higher payment at the end. So far, super impressed with all I've seen from these guys with everything from communication responsiveness to cleanup at the end.

We had a clogged and leaking sink. I was able to get an accurate quote through photos/video in advance, Carbo showed up right on time and when she had to get a part, she got an extra one for the other side that would eventually wear out and showed me how to do it myself!  So refreshing, as a woman, not to worry I was getting scammed by a service provider and to feel empowered to do something myself if I chose to.  Highly recommend!

I had a gas leak and needed a shutoff installed. PGE came and did not correctly diagnosis the problem but Alex found it quickly. He was proactive and I appreciate the services I received.

I deal with Bustos on an ongoing basis to provide repair services for the 200 plus units I manage.  I would not use any other company.  The level of professionalism and service is incomparable to any other company I have worked with.  The office manager Chris is amazing and always goes out of her way to make sure she can accommodate our needs.  They are very reasonable and fair when it comes to billing.  

The plumbers (particularly Robert and Brian) are amazing.  I always joke that they should have their own show on A&E called Extreme Plumbers.  I have seen them do amazing work in the most unique situations.  

It so wonderful that we (Alamedans) have a long time Alameda Company that provides such a great service.

Excellent reliable service professionals.
During a recent heavy rain storm, one of my terrace roof drains backed-up.  The terrace is above the residential unit below mine.  
I grabbed my phone and scanned Yelp to find an emergency service provider.  I found 24/7; called the number; dispatcher answered within 30-seconds.  My request was processed quickly and efficiently; and I was told a technician would be dispatched immediately.
Chris H arrived within 40-minutes; assessed conditions; fetched the necessary equipment from his truck; and got to work.
Within 30-minutes Chris had cleared the drain and the water flowed down the pipe.
Chris H was polite courteous and respectful of my home, which is a difficult task when having to carry cumbersome and wet dirty equipment through a residence.
I could not be more impressed with the service I received.
24/7 AND Chris H are FIVE Stars!

They are very professional for the the job, they come on time, did what they promised and keep the original price they quote.

Bay Area Drainage recently replaced our 1,400 sq. foot back yard lawn with turf (in Walnut Creek). Their crew was lead by Javier.  The crew was professional, neat and cleaned the area well each night.

The project took about 4 days to complete.  Very happy with the quality of and the company.

Kitchen sink backed up.  Plunger & Draino didn't work.  Called H & R Saturday morning just before 9.
Manuel had the job done by 10.
Very reasonable pricing.
Recommended!

They came on time, did a great efficient job and were very affordable. I will definitely call them again for any future plumbing issues!

We had a major leak in our underground pipe under our driveway.  It leaked at about 1000 Gallons of water per day. We got three quotes from various plumbing companies.  Among them, there are two quotes considered by us, and Trenchfree, recommended by a neighbor of our community, is one of them. Our final decision was largely to do with the competitive quote, the sincerity and flexibility of their business altitude and the high degree satisfaction during Q&A with the owner of Trenchfree, Juan.
During their work, Trenchfree workers (particularly, Luis) are courteous and always attempt to deliver the best quality of workmanship, which I gave them 100% satisfaction. They minimized disturbance to our landscape and avoid damaging roots of redwood trees as applying their tool in lateral underground digging.  Our slope yard also presented challenge and difficulties to their work, but they overcome them all and deliver superb results.
Like the neighbor that recommended this company to us, after using Trenchfree, we recommend this company with the strongest recommendation.

Arrived when he said he would, knew what he was doing, left the job cleaner than I expected a plumber to leave it after working. And he treated my dog with respect, as well.

We had a broken pipe in a bathroom in our office building. I called several plumbers but no one could come and fix it before I left work. Rick came within a few hours and fixed the leak and put in some new aerators in the faucets and now everything is perfect. Very fast and best yet very reasonable pricing. We'll call Rick again.

I called for leaks and he said just finishing what his doing and he will come to job site but no call no show how unreliable

Great service! Did an amazing job cleaning our house and was very communicative and responsive. The cleaning was above and beyond our expectations. Highly recommend Artistic-Methods!

They deserve no stars!  I just called up to see if I can get a quote for testing the sewer lateral to get the certificate and the person (I think this is a one person company) who answered the phone told me that they have to go out to inspect. I asked a few more questions regarding the test and he got very irritated and started raising his voice.  He was extremely rude and it was a very unpleasant experience.  NO, I will not hire him for his service! They go by Emergency Plumbing & Drain.
