Just moved into a home in Aug 2022, found at least 3 leaks, in 3 different places. Reported it to the landlord within 2 days, and 5 days later the landlord comes to the house with Mike from H&M plumbing, who apparently could not locate a leak if it was emanating on his foot.

The plumber never asked me any questions about where I saw the leaks, or what was happening, etc. Even though he saw no leaks, he replaced items on the back of the toilet (where water damage was obviously present) But then claimed  nothing was wrong. Days later I am given a receipt from my landlord from H&M plumbing for $500, even though no leaks were found and the only work performed was a valve change. (not sure why the valve change was necessary if he didn't find anything) Mike the plumber even stated there was no leak coming from a sliding glass door. Which is weird because the video showed otherwise, and Mike isn't a contractor, so why he would use his professional plumbing opinion on carpentry is also peculiar. But who knows, ‍Mike could be multi-skilled in the art of lack of detection.

Fast forward to 09/09/22 same leaks are still causing issues in the kitchen, bathroom, and sliding glass door. (Did I forget to also mention the water heater) I call GoPro plumbing and they find everything without an issue, explain what's causing the leaks, and even found some potential issues I didn't know about. Surprisingly the evaluation & estimate with repairs were far more reasonable than what H&M charged for their estimate and failure to find anything.

Lastly, if we ignore how unofficial this receipt looks, my favorite part is Mike's description of the equipment as old drippy angle stop  and how pictures of Mike working on nothing and looking for leaks by spraying a hose at a window truly help me laugh through this situation.

Best case scenario  Mike from H&M Plumbing, who according to the website owns this business, and this Landlord were working together, to seal the lie, and to try and keep me in this home.

Worst case scenario Plumber Mike LEGIT doesn't know what he is doing...

Home inspection was done 08/21/22. Please see pics and receipt below, you decide.

Top notch service at a great price! Ed responded to our service request promptly and was able to come out the same day. Communication was fantastic from start to finish and even let us know that he was on the way to arrive early. He was able to get the parts and let us know his progress every step of the way. Would highly recommended him for your handyman needs and electrical work.

I've been using About Plumbing since I moved here. Great work, very responsive and reliable.

I am currently remodeling my entire house including my kitchen and three bathrooms.  Steve has been amazing to work with.  He is very busy but always finds time to fit us in his schedule.  His workmanship is of extremely high quality, and I feel fortunate to have found a plumber that I can trust and count on.

All Trades updated our kitchen lighting as well installed an ice box for our refrigerator. The owner came out and gave an estimate, we scheduled the remodel with them and they committed to the date they promised. They were very professional and very good. This was done about 3 months ago and I honestly thought I already reviewed. I would highly recommend.

Have used The Plumbing Therapist twice. The plumber who came to our house (Mike) was very helpful and went above and beyond to help with the project I needed to have done (switching out old gold bathroom fixtures). I was given several options for how to proceed with repairs without any sales push or pressure. Great job and highly recommend.

Mohammed and his team did a great job for us at a reasonable rate.  We had a leak in our garage and he was able to come that same day to repair.

10 STARS, 20 STARS!!,....if it was possible to do that  here,...but it isn't. For the most incredible experience in service, integrity, stick-to-it-ness, dogged determination, and even keeled behavior in the face of a most difficult situation from a contractor I have ever experienced...Read on,. Its worth it. It's Super bowl Sunday at my duplex, the tubs, sewer line backs up, we all know the SB is a De facto holiday and I called the main local and reputable companies and was greeted with voice mail which was no surprise. I called Chris at Finite plumbing and he answered and said he would be out the next day. Halleluiah, a family of five is next door and luckily the tubs drained overnight and we were ready to go...Chris knew just what to do and that's what we did, run a snake down the drain line to clear the obstruction,...sadly the snake head broke off in the line but the obstruction was cleared restoring normal plumbing infrastructure. But how to get the broken snake head presented a potentially serious and a more imminent problem,. Kind of like a time bomb. There was no immediate solution but acting on experience I arranged to have the line camera'd the very next day and while the line was clear of water and effluent, I asked that company to tell me how this needs to be fixed and when it could be done which they did do and the very next day,. These solutions were in the thousands of dollars and would have left my circa 1963 plumbing in a better state than when Chris found it, I called Chris, he came back and we looked at the site conditions and Chris said that he, as a one man shop just wasn't able to do an excavation job,. Totally understandable. Chris offered to pay the cost to have another company do the work, handed me in cash the cost to have the line camera'd...I was blown away and told him I would not let this father of 7 kids with another on the way eat this entire cost. Tired of reading this review ?? Better not be because this is where it gets special, Chris asked if he could think about a way to get this hunk of metal out before we did any other work,...over the next 3 days Chris came back and utilized his ingenuity, knowledge of metallurgy, Harry Houdini, and MacGyver cunning and together, ( but mainly Chris)  we got this hunk a metal outa there! This cost Chris money and time and never a hint of disappointment in his demeanor, body language, and impossibly polite and calm. He wasn't going to be beat by the situation,. Sure it  saved us both a greater amount of money had we taken the other path but the elation I think we both felt was akin to completing a mission. I told him I would be lucky to be in a foxhole with him. I wish I could bore you some more with the details of this story,...but I wont. Thank you Chris!,.. and you can have anybody you want call me for a referral anytime

My air conditioner went out in the middle of summer last year. I called Hawk Air to see when they could come out to check out the problem. They scheduled me the next day and had my AC running in no time.  The Technician's possessed exceptional customer service.  Happy with their services. Would recommend to friends and family.

Jeff was very responsive, competent, and professional. It is obvious he really cares about the quality of his work and checks to ensure customer satisfaction.

Jeff repaired two toilets in his visit, one was leaking at the base and needed a new seal. He pulled the unit, cleaned the area, replaced a broken bolt and seal, set, caulked and tested the unit thoroughly. It looks and works great now!

The other unit had an issue with an internal seal of a not-so-common design. Jeff had the necessary part with him and now it works like a charm.

I really liked the fact that Jeff explained what he found and stated his recommended repair. I felt he was honest and knew exactly what he was doing.

An overall great experience and I will be calling him in the future for any of my plumbing needs.

I have had JAZ Developments do a number of projects on my home from fence repair to fan installation and fixing my oven. The quality of work is always terrific, they are friendly and transparent with costs and labor. I will continue to use them for needs as they arise.

They do a great job.  Austin was professional, came out on time and solved the clog problem in a timely fashion.  Thank you

My friend Vicky asked me to post this review for her. Frank came out to install a new toilet and he also fixed other plumbing issues. What an excellent experience. He was reasonably priced and i plan on calling him for service.

Enrique is very efficient and stands by his quoted price. He is always responsive, punctual, and does a clean job. I would highly recommend his services.

Contracted another A/C company to install a smart thermostat.  After spending about 3 hours of cutting wires and making my A/C system totally inoperative, they gave up!!  Called Allbritten and thank you to Josue...he was able to repair the damage caused by the other company and install the smart thermostat!!  Awesome job Allbritten and Josue!!!

I had a great experience with B B plumbing & would recommend highly ! I called for appointment on a Friday & they were able to come out on the next Monday morning. The Plumber  who came was courteous and took the time to explain the repair.

Ray was able to help me out on very short notice, and did a great job. We had a waterline break, which meant we needed to shut the main water supply to the house off....when I had a crew of painters/handymen scheduled to come in 2 days later...I had another plumber quote me a week before they could come out, Ray got it done right away.

Franky came to my home and was very helpful. He was professional and very polite. If the rest of the staff is like Franky then I give your company an A. Thanks again Franky for the service call.
