Best Businesses in San Jose, CA

My water heater repair request was sent to 5 service providers randomly by Yelp, and JM plumbing was one of the three responded within an hour. Although their quote was not the cheapest and they had no reviews in Yelp, but I was convinced they were the best technician for the job because how sincere and knowledgeable they showed over the conversation. I did not regret my choice. JM was very responsive to requests and flexible on schedule. They got job done professionally.

We waited a while (~1 yr) before adding reviews post an almost full home remodel after buying for install/product quality checks.

James and Joe with Gladiator were a pleasure to work with from the get go, and some of the best contractors I had the pleasure working with (I was the not-so-well-prepared GC of the project).

They ran a full copper re-pipe of our home, attached a new water tank, installed kitchen and bathroom fixtures, and completely took care of the permit, all at a fair price for the quality. These guys used good materials, fully explained the why's, completed the job quickly, and were super easy to get along with the whole way.

I'd recommend Gladiator any day of the week and will be working with these guys for future plumbing needs. This wasn't the case with all the contractors we dealt with... thanks James!

Mark is awesome. My sink was stopped and not only was he more reasonable than other plumbers, he went into the drain 2 different ways to snake it. He spent a lot of time explaining possible problems that can arise so I can best avoid future problems. I will be hiring him again when I need to replace my water heater.

Jose and his crew were great! We needed our 75-year-old sewer line replaced: I got an estimate within a day or two of requesting one, and he caught a problem with the original installation that other contractors had missed in their inspection. Jose and his crew did the work as promised and cleaned up the site every day---spotless! We had a small tree that was growing near the line which they managed to save, which we didn't think was going to be possible, and they managed to dig a huge hole in our tiny front yard without a lot of impact to our other landscaping.

I highly recommend Pipe-Thru, they were so easy to deal with and completely professional all the way and they charged a fair and reasonable price for the work. I will definitely call them when I have any other underground piping issues--including installing electrical conduit to our backyard shed, which we want to do in the future. Can't recommend them highly enough.

I originally gave four star because it is considered good. However, Paul responded rudely telling me I never booked him and he never confirmed. He even lied I did not reply to his question. I have attached part of our conversation's screenshot and you judge it yourself. I can post our whole conversation how responsive I am if necessary -- always within 24 hours if not same-day.

Original four-star post: I booked Paul last week for services tomorrow. Communication and price have been okay. They just canceled tonight because of his knee injury.

Ricardo showed up quickly after I called him. He is nice and professional. He explained our plumbing issue in details and gave me useful tips for future maintenance. He fixed our plumbing issue very quickly and checked every bathroom to make sure everything is right.
His rate is reasonable too.
Will definitely call him in the future if I need any help!

This is the second time that we have used this fantastic Company for our plumbing needs.  

For this segment, I called and was greeted by a caring voice and she (forgot her name, sry)was able to schedule an afternoon appointment on the same day.

Joseph Salazar arrived between the times requested and he was able to complete installing my garbage disposal.  What he did in 30 minutes had taken most of my day.

Thanks again for always being there for our needs, it is extremely important that we trust those coming into our homes and you always do it with a smile.

Thanks again.

Had our old cast iron sewer pipes replaced after 60+ years.  Great service,  on time, friendly. Reasonable price, beat the competition. Cleaned up each night and had us reconnected with little down time.  Explained fully what the issues were and how to resolve. Russell, Dom and rest of team were fantastic. Would definitely use them again.

Everything was great! Our water heater started leaking on a Tuesday night - Eric came out Wednesday morning for a free estimate and completed the install later that day.

I highly recommend JTR Plumbing and we have already scheduled them to come back and re pipe our home!

Very reliable and quick to response. My son broke our bath tub faucet  at 7:30 and Shane came to the rescue with very short notice.  Replied at once on my post in Yelp. Save his number for future plumbing problem.

Had a kitchen faucet to replace. His quote was very competitive. Was courteous and professional and did an good job explaining on what needs to be done.

If you're a resident plumbing service. Please keep it residential. Take on a job too big for yourself. Took my money, left a mess, all the plumbing wasn't up to code. As soon as Rooter Hero found out that the job is done incorrectly. They vanished, no reply, no calls. Gabe... supposedly the region manager. We are reporting rooter hero to the State board. Unethical work and scam for big projects.

I called Mike Counsil plumbing for leak in the front and backyard faucet and pipes.  Next day J.J came first thing in the morning and I had him check bathroom and kitchen for any lick. They started working on Saturday with a team of people. J.J, Kevin, and Christopher worked very hard, explain everything and I'm very satisfied with the whole process.

My last experience with Counsil Plumbing was absolutely terrible - a complete reversal from my first.  I had to wait 1 week for an appointment and then received a the morning of the appointment that a customer decided they wanted more things done - vs. an emergency of some kind.  I had to wait 4 more days for an appointment and then on the morning of the appointment, I received a call at 8:20am asking if the plumber could come in half an hour for a 10am appointment.  I said that wouldn't be convenient, and then was told, Hopefully nobody will call between now and then.  Really.  

Then, Aaron misdiagnosed both issues I had - banging pipes and a showerhead was making a screeching noise.  

Aaron's diagnosis of the banging pipes was that a hanger that was holding a pipe inside the wall had come loose.  Then he said that it was the neighbor's pipes (we live in a townhouse). He said that it wouldn't cause any problems and the only way to fix it was to open up the wall. After he left, I thought about it and decided that it didn't make sense that the problem was with the neighbor's pipes since the only time we heard banging was when we turned on our facets.  I did some research on the Internet and found that this is a common problem and you need to drain all of the water from the pipes.  That worked.  Aaron most definitely should have figured that out.

Then he unscrewed the showerhead, ran some water, and said it was fixed.  It started screeching after he left.  My husband installed a showerhead from our other shower, and it worked fine.  It was simply a faulty showerhead.

I sent an email about all of this to the email address on the Counsil website, but have not received a response after 2 weeks, which is why I am writing this.  So much for the guarantee of 100% satisfaction.

I need to the water line for the refrigerator. very good service and reasonable price. Would be my first option next time

Timely, polite, professional and pricey.

The plumber showed up on time, and was very polite and professional. As I was unable to get a quote over the phone, I was told the price when the plumber arrived. I ended up paying $500 for 1 faucet installation. He very quickly removed the old leaky faucet and installed our new Delta faucet. The entire process took a little over an hour. He even disposed of the old faucet and water filter for us.

Big thank you to Jesus Cardenas for saving the day !!!

He  unclogged our drain in a timely manner . The drain was connected to our washer and it was clogged. Before his help we had water overflowing all over the garage and we couldn't wash our clothes .

Keep up the good work Jesus!

Definitely request this guy because he know his stuff ....

I first saw the excellent reviews for Trevin and Bullet Plumbing on NextDoor and called him for   replacement of our pressure regulator valve and some hose bibs that were stuccoed / painted over from the time we bought the house.

Trevin was on-time, within or even below his initial estimate and the work was excellent. Even other plumbers who came for stuff like hot water installation commented on how good the work was.

Most recently, we needed to cap a gas line and I had a shower where temperature was too cool and flow too weak. He made short work of these.

It's always a pleasure to work with some like Trevin--super competent, honest, prompt and respectful. And if he doesn't pick up your call right away, it's probably because he's in the middle of a job--he'll get back to you soon.

I'd recommend him without hesitation.
