Best Plumbing Services in San Jose, CA

Alex S Plumber was fantastic. He arrived on time, and went straight to work. The estimates I received were anywhere from 3-5 hours--which is probably safe business practice--but he replaced the water heater we had and was done in 90 minutes. Responsive, kind, and very efficient. Would highly recommend again!

As the owner of a water damage restoration company, I've had the privilege to work side by side with this leak detection company. Leak detection is a specialized industry that requires the right skills, right tools, and great integrity with its business practices. They also have a very fast turn around time. I've found the owner to be honest, skilled, punctual and knowledgeable in the field. This is why we heavily rely on their services when our clients need leak detection or a water damage source report.

We were really pleased with Redwood Pipe and Drain. We wanted to start moving into our new house and they were able to start the next week and tackle the whole job: new copper pipe, installation of on-demand hot water in different location, water softener, redo drainage, relocation of washer/dryer. His crew were friendly and they worked really well together. We were really pleased that Mike and his team did the work and left the yard just as they found it. The coordination with subs (electrical, sheetrock) was seamless. All that work an they were in and out in less than a week!

Over the years I've had several different plumbers come to my house to unplug the drains in my old house - built in 1961. I called Rich Briscoe and he was at my house to unplug my shower drain within an hour even though he had a full day of business already booked. He quickly assessed my problem and got to work. In the process he did what no other plumber has ever done that came to unplug my drains. He inspected the way my plumbing was constructed and showed me why I keep having the same issues. He described how my pipes should be replaced from old metal to new PVC because the old metal pipes get rusted up inside and create places for various things that go down the drain to latch on and build up whereas PVC is smooth and never rusts!
Rich has over 30 years of experience building plumbing systems, repairing, and cleaning them. With this plumbing construction knowledge he also was able to show me how if we just reconfigure our plumbing system things will flow much better and there will be less chances for the inevitable clog. Not only does Rich do great work he is priced reasonably and was the lowest quote I found after several calls. I finally found a great plumber. I highly recommend Rich Briscoe for any plumbing 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 experienced terrible customer service from Plumbing 911 this past week when a water pipe burst outside our house.  I chose this company because of all their 5-star Yelp reviews.  
So I called Bart on Wed. evening and he said that he would come out the following day between 8 and 10 am., and that he would try to make it out on the earlier side since it was an emergency (we had to shut off the main water line).  I called on Thurs. morning at 8:30 and asked for an updated ETA, and he said he'd arrive in about an hour.  Soon afterwards I had to leave for work, but my mom continued to wait for him.  Since he didn't show up by 10:30am, she called him and this is what Bart told her:

- he had lost our phone number and address, so couldn't contact us
- in any case, he couldn't make it to our house that day after all, and that it would have to wait until the following day
- he 'was happy' when my mom said that she may have to go with another plumber since this was an emergency... no apologies at all from him!

Apparently Bart found a new job to take care of that day, and we got sidelined.   Maybe he does a great job at what he does, but I find this level of unprofessionalism unacceptable.  I would discourage anyone from choosing Plumbing 911 in an emergency situation like ours.

Called in the morning to get a quote for a replacement water heater with installation, and by late afternoon/evening we had hot water once again!  Edwin & Jose came out to give us a very reasonable estimate for the job (cheaper & quicker than the big box stores), then came back to complete installation of our new water heater as promised with proper upgrades per new code regulations.

I'm comforted to know that I've found a reliable plumbing company for my future needs.  I'll be recommending them to family & friends as well.

Quick response, quality work & installation, and competitive pricing.   Give them a try, you won't be disappointed!

BUYER BEWARE: I would not hire Davis Plumbing unless you don't care about the cost. I was told on the phone he charged $160/hr. and he estimated it would take an hour or two.  Steve arrived 25 minutes late (no phone call) and he and his assistant spent just a few minutes over an hour removing a vessel sink, replacing it with another. I was expecting a bill of $160 + parts. Instead, he charged me $860.
Line 1 lists Vessel sink removal with Labor costs of $160.
Line 2 also lists Vessel sink removal with a labor cost of $640.
That's labor charges for 4 hours when he and his assistant only spent 1 hour. On top of that, there was a $40 fee for a service call. He discounted the $840 price by $160 immediately which IMO should never have been on the bill to begin with. When I protested the charges, he took another $100 off. But I am still very unhappy about his bill and his lack of communication. I NEVER would have hired him if I had known that replacing that sink would cost $600. I feel the total cost should have been at most $320. The work was good, but I would recommend that you NOT sign an estimate of what is supposedly the highest amount the job could possibly cost when that's what, it seemed to me, he intended to charge all along.

Hi! We had a leak in the kitchen. They diagnosed the problem and installed a new faucet. He was even cool about explaining things to us. Overall, great experience.

All I want for Christmas is a clean sewer line!

HUGE SHOUT OUT to Mario and his team who literally saved Christmas for my family this year by unclogging our sewer. Not only coming out on Xmas Eve to free my home of backed-up sewage, but who also did so affordably and timely.

THANK YOU, Mario! I will refer you to my clients as well.  Kathleen

My parents needed a complete re-piping of their water pipes, plus a new water main to the city's water connection.  I called various plumbers to get estimates.  Bill from Advanced Repipe specialist was very professional and gave me a folder full of information and the best quote.  On the day we agreed upon, Ramiro and crew were out at my parent's house and in one day replaced all the water pipes with new copper pipes.  While I'm not a water pipe expert, I do a lot of home repairs by myself and the materials they used appear to be top notch (brass fittings, stainless steel connectors) and I was impressed with the quality of work. Going under the house is tough, dirty work, but they put down floor protectors to keep dirt contained and made quick work of this big project.  I wanted to give them 4.5 stars, but this is my first yelp review and I don't know how to score a 1/2 star!  The only reason I am not giving a full 5 stars is a few minor hiccups in the process.  1) The water heater gas wasn't turned back on so I called PG&E to turn on (quick and free); 2) the wire netting for the crawl space ventilation was cut to give access to install copper pipes and while the wire was bent back into place, I felt it should have been sealed to prevent rodents from entering crawl space; 3) after installation of water pipes, there was a week delay in completing the project (patching drywall and filling hole in front yard due to a problem with permit (city error).  Once the permit was corrected, they did great job of patching drywall holes.  I would recommend anyone using this firm (or any other contractor) to inspect work and use new connections before final payment.

They appear to be honest, hardworking people and I definitely recommend this company.  It's been about a month and the water pipes and faucets are working great!  In fact, I have asked for a quote from Advanced repipe to install a new tankless water heater in MY home.  Thank you Ramiro, Bill and crew!

Adrian sent Angel out on Christmas Day to replace our broken water heater. Super prompt, reasonable and Angel was absolutely wonderful. He did the replace quickly and explained the care for it in addition to hauling away the old unit and cleaning up.

Our water heater in our duplex started making funny noises around 5 pm. By 5:45 I was on Thumbtack, and by 6 pm Alex from SAV Services had contacted me and said he could be here by 6:30. He was on time and ready to work. Our ancient water heater was dead - I knew it before he got here. We decided to replace both water heaters in the duplex, and Alex gave us a reasonable quote and went out then to get the 2 water heaters. He was back and at work and by 10 pm we had hot water again and 2 working new water heaters installed and up to code finally. Thank you Alex! Fantastic job!!

Late on a Sunday night, we were suddenly without hot water, the water pressure dropped, and an odd buzzing noise occurred whenever we turned on the faucets. We called Total Plumbing Services on Monday morning, having found them via the internet, and they came out immediately. By two in the afternoon, we had a new water heater and trip relief valve installed, the buzzing diagnosed (air in water line) and cured, and general helpful advisement about other matters that had concerned us. Roberto was wonderful to work with. We highly recommend Total Plumbing Services, in Oakland.

Had a kitchen faucet go out on a Saturday.  The kind lady on the phone sent Don over within the hour.  Don is a polite, nice, and expert plumber who quickly diagnosed the problem and gave me good advice on where to buy a replacement.

Although I hope I have no more plumbing issues, I'll gladly do business with San Jose plumbing again.

Not impressed.
This company was utilized my my HOA to work on my pipe.
Take them 4 + days to get it wrong. I open the cabinets, it is all wet and mildewed inside.
2 young men who appeared high school age did all the work, I honestly don't think they knew what they were doing.
No uniforms, and they came in an old beat up truck. I don't have a lot of faith in them.

WHY ARE THE UNFAVORABLE REVIEWS ON THE SECOND PAGE?
Sneaky.
Try to look past all the 5 stars to see what real customers have to say.
Big regret.

Butch is the man. Always shows up on time and does great work. Not too many repair companies want to come out to our house so we are very happy with the quick and efficient work. Thanks guys!

Karmonte was absolutely fantastic! I had a challenging issue with my leaking toilet pipe, but he tackled it with expertise and efficiency. Despite the difficulty, he managed to complete the job on time, showcasing his remarkable skills. Not only did he fix the problem, but he also went above and beyond by meticulously cleaning up the job site. I was truly impressed with how tidy everything was when he finished.

What really stood out was Karmonte's exceptional customer service. He patiently answered all of my questions, taking the time to explain the details of the job. His willingness to provide information and guidance made me feel involved and informed throughout the process.

Overall, I cannot recommend Karmonte highly enough. His professionalism, punctuality, and expertise are commendable. If you're in need of a reliable plumber who goes the extra mile, Karmonte is your go-to person. I'm extremely satisfied with his work and will definitely be reaching out to him for any future plumbing needs. Thank you, Karmonte!
