Best Businesses in San Jose, CA

We had Alan come out to figure out why our furnace was making a rattling noise. He was able to fix the problem. He was very clean and respectful to the house. I would use him again and highly recommend this company.

Marcos and his team were incredible -- they were prompt, quickly located the leak, and managed to get it repaired in the span of an afternoon. Throughout the detection process, he explained what they were investigating and why.

Mike and his team came highly recommended by our equally competent and highly skilled electricians. Mike came by the same day to check out our situation in our newly purchased house and delivered an honest and clear plan of scope. He admitted they were on the higher end of the rate scale but that it reflected the higher quality of work, and it sure did. If you want it done right, you hire the professionals.

Mike recognized the urgency in our situation (wife 8 months pregnant and delivering at home with leaded copper pipes poisoning the system) and moved around his schedule to arrange work the following week and brought his full team (all members super nice and willing to ensure everything is completed to high standards) to accomplish a miracle in 3 days. We now have new mixed PEX and safe copper pipes and drains that actually make sense, that are fully functional, that follow regulatory rules and design, and produce actual water pressure.

They even redid our laundry system, moved the units to the new location and rerouted the lint exhaust tube to ensure safety compliance. They also replaced a leaky toilet and nasty contaminated water heater, and accommodated a future water softener system install. They are our, in the end, our heroes.

Rich did a great job fixing our leaking kitchen sink pipes and installing a new faucet.  He is professional, personable, and reasonable with his fees.  He seems to be very busy no doubt because of the quality of his work.

Really nice guy!
I called him up to ask about the cost to flush a hot water heater and he asked how old it was. Since my hot water heater is from 2004, he didn't recommend flushing it out. Due to age and likely significant sediment, it could stir it up enough to clog up the lines.  He didn't think it'd be worth it for me and recommended to save my money for replacing the water heater, which would likely be soon.

He's honest and gives a good opinion and I really appreciate that! Will call him when it breaks!

I've been incredibly pleased with the work Bart & Nick have done. I got in touch with them via a contractor to have a small bit of work done, which wound up escalating to significant work to replace our entire water line from the street (due to age of the existing pipe). They worked quickly and very hard, communicated status updates regularly, and have come back to ensure that everything is working and make a few adjustments elsewhere around our house. I'm definitely keeping them as my go-to plumbers!

Excellent service from call to visit. Although they said earliest availability for a non-urgent visit was the following day, one of their techs, Luis, gave me a call to follow-up along with offering to stop by in 20-30 minutes as he was already in the area. Couldn't be happier with their expertise and visit. Honest and helpful!

Steve is excellent. He always promptly returns my call and schedules an appointment. He quickly addresses the problem without any mess. Steve patiently explains to me what I need to know so that I might be able to fix it myself in the future. Most recently, he left me the tool I would need and didn't charge me. Steve is efficient and trustworthy. If I was unable to be home while he works, it would not be a problem

The seal on my toilet broke. Someone picked up when I called and was very responsive. They gave me a fair quote over the phone and had a appointment for within the hour.  Luis showed up within 20 min after the initial call, he was professional and quickly fixed the seal within 30 min. Very happy with results I will definitely use them again!

Victor and Commando Plumbing were, by far, one of the most professional, qualified, and knowledgeable businesses I have ever dealt with. I called Commando Plumbing with a water leak at 4pm, and he was there that evening to assess the damage and suggest the repair. He and his assistant returned on Sunday to repair the broken pipe, which was located under the house's foundation. The work required considerable jack hammered removal of concrete in my garage, pipe repair, concrete replacement and more. It was a very complicated process because of the original placement of the pipe. Victor repaired everything and cleaned up after all work was done. He is FANTASTIC. I very highly recommend Victor and Commando Plumbing.

I called Advanced Repipe Specialist to get someone to come and give us a quote to replace our water pipes. I spoke to watch sounded like an older gentleman and told him my schedule to make an appointment. It was Monday and he said he had an appointment for Thursday but at a time I would not be able to make. He then said he will did not know if he could make an appointment for Friday morning at 9 AM he would have to check your schedule and let me know and I did not hear back from him.

Friday morning comes and the doorbell rings my wife and I were not expecting them as we have not heard back regarding the appointment. I mentioned that he did not confirm and he said oh you're the one I forgot to call back. I said apparently so he apologized and proceeded to take some measurements and look at what we needed to do. He then said he would have a quote for me within the next couple days. I gave them my email address and look forward to the possibility of doing business with them.

It has now been over two weeks and I've not heard one thing from them. I do not know if this is a regular behavior but after one miss hap I would think they would have a bit more vigilance for a potential customer.

I don't think this is a company I feel safe working with.

Had two more water heaters leaking in our other properties.  Adrian fixed it for the best prices again.  For our recent water heater, he noticed it was still under warranty.  He helped me carry the water heater to home depot for a full refund.  He also fought the home depot folks concerning their conflicting policies with GE.  Long story short, he saved me a lot of money.  I totally recommend him!

When I got to the garage this morning, our water heater started leaking...I found this company on Thumbtack and they offered to come on the same day to fix it! He also provides a quote right away, very straightforward and transparent pricing. After quoting a few others we chose them because they offer the most reasonable price. Oleskii definitely knows his stuff - he told us the problem right away, the material cost, and overall itemized cost. All very clear and specific. He got the job done with no issue. Def highly recommended!

Billy showed up fast, found the problem, suggested a solution and did the work within the hour. Great service and will easily use again and recommend.

I needed re-piping at my place and I had found this place via yelp. Making an appointment was nice and easy. One guy came out here to assess the corroded pipes. He recommended I make an appointment with the re-piping specialist Dave. Dave came by and made an ESTIMATE and started the job the following week.

***  Important Note: Mind you, I found this place via yelp, and it notes on their page Mention Yelp to save 10% off our hourly rate. ***

With the note above I had forgotten to mention this at the time of ESTIMATE, and this is the main reason why I chose this place, along with the reviews. I called San Jose Plumbing about Mention Yelp to save 10% off our hourly rate. and the extremely nice lady said Dave should honor it. When it came time to pay for the job I had mentioned this, and he said my estimate was final. When did an ESTIMATE become the final invoice? and for him to disregard the Mention Yelp to save 10% off our hourly rate. was very DISAPPOINTING. --- minus two stars........ Could of easily been a 5 star rating.

The re-piping job:
Dave and his son did a good job re-piping the place. They definitely are experts. They were able to open up the walls and replace the old pipes. Seems they had cut corners in some areas. For one, they had cut through the rear of kitchen cabinets, instead of opening up the wall. So if I had to replace kitchen cabinets tomorrow, I have to cut through new cabinets to accommodate piping. Second, faucet in backyard is now running down the wall, instead of being in between the drywall and stucco. It is an eye sore. In addition, the texture job didn't match my existing walls. I am having to redo it.

yay... my drains are draining and my faucet isn't dripping!!! happy :)

it would seem i've had plumbing issues come on all at once. 2 clogged drains, a leaky faucet, and a broken pipe.  so i gave them a call in the afternoon, and they were able to send someone out the next day.  thank goodness for speedy!  and they showed up on time, even a bit early.

the guys who came out were super nice. very professional and respectful.  they even put booties on before coming in every time.  they quickly assessed the problems, gave me an idea of cost, then got to work.  they were done in about an hour, including a trip to the hardware store to get a part.  they charge by the hour, but don't let that worry you... they seem to work fast.

so now my drip is gone, water is flowing, and i'm happy.  the pipe will wait for another day.  they gave me an idea what it will cost, and it seemed reasonable.  i'd absolutely use them again.

My tenant called me Easter weekend and said her apartment had no water pressure.  I called George Allen and left them a message.  Tyler called me the next morning and came out to the apartment within two hours.  He found that the pressure regulator needed to be replaced.  

I have used George Allen and Sons for my personal residence and rental several times, but this is the first review I have written.  They have always been excellent to deal with, but this time I felt Tyler went above and beyond.  

Thanks again!

I don't believe I ever made a bad review about a company that I was involved with. This plumbing company is in the list of certified contractors of American Home Shield, my home warranty company,  that they sent to look at my stoppage on my kitchen sewer line to the main line after paying $100. They did the usual snake process twice and reported that they found mud on the snake and requested AHS the use a camera to find the problem. AHS did not approve it saying it was my responsibility since it's not part of my contract. It was an emergency so I contacted another plumbing company, Gasca Plumbing, who did the identical procedure and they were able to clear the stoppage. They went down the crawl space to inspect and found my sewer pipe intact.
The report that Rock's Plumbing wrote to AHS was there was a SLAB LEAK. How can there be a slab leak if my house is NOT built on a SLAB but rather have a crawl space. I read a consumer review about Rocky's and some one advice that check on their license if it is active.
