Best Businesses in San Jose, CA

Russ did a quick, clean, and efficient job taking care of our plumbing needs.  We would definitely call him the next time we need plumbing services.

I live out of town and was in need of a plumber quickly. I called Talal based on his reviews. The mark of a good business person is to answer the telephone or return a message in a timely fashion. Talal did that. I explained the problem and we agreed on a day and time. Talal showed up early and completed the job. I like to support small business owners and I think that I found a match in Expert Plumbing. Not only did he do the job quickly and for a fair price he communicates and stays in touch with the customer. Kudos to Talal.

I called for a clogged sink. I was able to schedule for next day because it was very late in the day. He arrived on time and went to work. Drain was cleared in 10 min from the roof vent. It wasn't cheap but was worth every penny. Great job and thanks for picking up the phone so late.

Wow! The owner Isaac is such a nice person. My toilet clogged up, and I found him on yelp and called him. First he asked me some questions to understand what is going on. He said if i run the water in anywhere in the house, everywhere is gonna be mess. Then he said I could come now but Due to it's very late, It could be extra charge I didn't know what else to do, I was gonna accept it but he said there is another option, so he found public works' number for me on google and told me they will do it for free for me. And he was right. they will be here in an hour and no charge:) Thanks Isaac for being such a kind and helpful owner. I will always call you if i need any help.

There's nothing like getting a call from home and being told that every toilet and shower/tub isn't draining. I called Happy Rooter based on their rating here on Yelp, and it proved very accurate. Victor and his crew arrived at my home within an hour and had the situation figured out within just a few minutes. At that point they got to work digging down into my yard to find the well buried clean-out. They replaced the 50+ yr old clean-out with a new modern PVC one and installed a ground-level access for future work (if needed). Then they started to snake the main line, in both directions, until the clog was found and the drains were running smoothly in my home. They filled in my yard, and were done. From 1st call to finishing handshake it was less than 5 hours. No Mess. No Worries. Victor's business card is definitely going up on my Fridge!

April 2018- AJ Bono Plumbing (AJ Bono) FAILED and Letts Plumbing (Letts) came to the RESCUE.  We had a blockage which resulted in a leak in the kitchen and the garage as our washing machine is in the garage.  We called our home warranty and they sent out AJ Bono (mind you they were out in Feb 2018 to clear a blockage).  Apparently, they didn't clear the blockage properly because we had a huge mess to deal with in April.  The home warranty company sent AJ Bono to our house on 4/26 (much to our dismay). AJ Bono said they cannot access the blockage and would require additional authorization to create an access point into the current plumbing pipes; they left without clearing anything.  None of this sounded right, so I called Letts the next morning for a second opinion--Fred from Letts cleared the blockage in an hour--NO additional pipe access required- Fred was great! He knew what he was doing and was very professional. I called AJ Bono and the home warranty company and told them I had a REAL plumber come out and they fixed the problem.  Thanks FRED!!!  Bottom line AJ Bono was trying to charge unnecessary fees to the home warranty company at our expense.

Good company to work with!  I had a bad leak near our water meter and got a reference from our neighbor recommending Art.  Art came out to the house and found the area we needed to trench.  I had to coordinate the timing with our artificial turf company to expose the dirt below and Art scheduled his team (Tony) to arrive a day later.  Tony came out on his day off, on time, dug up the area, got to the bottom of the issue (literally), and fixed it right away.  He replaced the water box exactly where it needed to be since the artificial turf was cut to fit.  Everything's back to normal and you can't tell there was a problem.  Definitely recommend these guys and will keep them in my list!  Thanks Art and Tony!

Very disappointed. Called and was told to send pics to their cell phone so they could give me an estimate. I did. Never heard back. Called. Was told they were so busy and would contact me that afternoon. Never heard back. I texted to the cell and asked for a reply, either way. Never heard. Guess they are not hungry for business.

I needed a water pressure regulating valve because the water pressure coming from the street into my house is about 120 psi (!!). This makes for a great shower, but it's extremely hard on all my appliances.

It was a pleasure to work with Joksan from the start. He was very responsive and knowledgeable, provided a free (and reasonable) estimate, and made himself available to do the job the very next morning.  I'm very happy with the quality of work Joksan provided and will definitely contact Creativity Plumbing in the future.

I have an old house with old plumbing. So the thought of calling a plumber makes me anxious. I had a tub faucet that had been leaking for a while and took a stab at fixing it myself. Luckily the screw was stripped and I gave up. Had I continued I would have definitely made it worse.

My neighbor highly recommended Barnett and they were the only plumber I called. They even bumped up my appointment because they had a plumber Matt available sooner.

Matt our plumber is great. He's  wry personable and informative. He accurately diagnosed the problem and had the exact part on the truck.

The leak was fixed in under an hour and worth every penny. I should have called sooner.

I will call Barnett again for future plumbing problems and recommend them to others.

Installed an addition to the gas line in our place. I cannot speak more highly of the communication, competitiveness, helpfulness, and quality of work.  Not only did they do the job, but did it in a better way that I would have suggested and explained the reasoning in a way that was both understandable and respectful.

We will be using them for ALL our plumbing and gas needs. Period.

This is overdue. Ryan came out over a month ago to take a look at our ducts, a/c, and heater.

Another company had recommended I overhaul all of it, actually making me feel like I was negligent if I didn't. It didn't feel right, so I called IRBIS to get a quote.

Ryan was professional and honest. He explained what could be/should be installed  and timeframes- and then sent the quote within hours.

It's not quite time yet to get the work done, but when it is, I'll be calling them back to get it done.

Very nice and professional! Hector is responsive and flexible. He not only fixed the blocking in the kitchen, but inspected the entire drainage system

Great service and very courteous.  Hired to replace shower faucet, paint vents on the rooftop, paint a bedroom and power wash the back yard. I was surprised when he said he could take care of all on the same day. He also completed lots of other small jobs like changing a screen and changing two door locks without charging me for his labor; just the price of parts and materials he purchased.

He's an honest person and his price is very reasonable. He is courteous, works hard and efficiently, and cleans up after the work is done. He goes above and beyond to help with some minor fixes.

Look at the other reviews. We cannot all be making it up.

THANKS ANAR

I did my tankless unit research after considering Noritz, Rinnai and Navien brands for a tankless water heater. Based on 98% efficiency, primary and secondary heat exchangers being all stainless steel, internal recirculation pump to reduce cold water sandwich effect and Navien being based in Irvine, CA (overnight parts) vs being located on east coast if I ever needed a part under warranty, selected them as the tankless supplier

Then began the licensed plumber research and arduous quote process, after evaluating a number of plumbers who came out but some never quoted: Payless Water Heaters, BG Plumbing, Freitas Plumbing, Counsil Plumbing, Cool's Custom, On Demand Water Heaters (never quoted after viewing project), Just Tankless (never quoted or responded after viewing project), and many others selected Henthorn Plumbing.

Most plumbers for tankless install will aim to bill you for the job for worst case scenario which equates to $300 per hour if you do the math (for two day install) this is to protect them just in case problems arise so you will see quotes vary largely from $3.8K-5K-10K.  I specifically wanted a plumber that would charge time + materials and stay on target vs charge for the worse case and Matt Henthorn was the plumber that could do exactly what I wanted and he stayed on target with install in 2 days as estimated.

Project was to run a dedicated 35ft x 1 galvanized steel gas line from meter mounted to strut, strapped every 7' with sediment trap, pressure tested prior to connection to Navien NPE-210A tankless water heater installed over plywood (brace sheet rock) meeting manufacturer clearance requirements, 2 schedule 40 PVC intake and exhaust vents separated 12, removed old washer stand-pipe, installed new PVC standpipe, sanitary tee, cleanout, new laundry box with water hammer suppressors, condensate neutralizer and scale inhibitor along with service valves, new gas dryer hookup and flex, install new brass hose bib.  Also installed a new figure 5, sanitary tee to support both new future laundry vanity sink and existing bathroom sink. I patched the sheetrock myself so he could finish the install.

Matt completed full install in 2 days, everything worked as it should, now have endless hot water, I will call him back to finish vanity sink hookup once I have it and countertop installed. His time and labor quote was very competitive and no corners were cut from project scope that I drafted.

Matt demonstrated journeyman qualities of integrity, honesty, cool head - nothing seem to phase him if complications arose, he is CA C36 licensed, bonded with workers compensation (he had one helper to help with gas line cutting and bracing) and does all work according to city code. He is also personable, positive attitude involves you in the decision making process and options.

I am wholeheartedly recommending him for your tankless water heater, gas line, water hookup, drain and any other plumbing needs. 5 stars

I wanted to give a review even though we haven't had a chance to work with Garrison Plumbing. Today, a Sunday, I asked for a quote for a water heater replacement. Even though they were closed, I got email and texts asking for info to prepare a quote. I was really surprised! Later this evening I got a text back asking for our location to get someone out asap Monday for a quote. We had already found a plumber so unfortunately this time we will miss out on working with Garrison Plumbing, but I am so impressed with the professionalism and for getting back to us on their day off that I had to give them a 5 star review. That's service!

Andrew and his crew came by promptly and fix my bathroom sink issue. Highly professional and recommended.

I strongly caution against so-called Smart Plumbing, Santa Clara.  They were called-in for a very simple item and expanded it into assorted issues unknown to me -- and dubious at best anyway-- until I got the bill for $800 !!  There are many other reliable and trustworthy plumbing companies that I will call in the future --I will never call Smart Plumbing again.

Called them during an emergency flooding situation and they showed up within an hour.  The serviceman Plumber Steve was very professional and was able to take care of the situation.  Very good and thorough. 100% good service all around.  Based on my experience I would recommend them to anyone!
