Best Businesses in Honolulu, HI

So I called him due to his great referenced.  We mad and appt for him to come at 9 on a wednesday.  He didn't show up and not so much as a phone call.  Very upsetting I waited but nothing! Would give negative stars if I could.

They were quick with their response and even quicker with being able to service my clogged drains. While I had not one clogged drain the worker Patrick who came helped me with 3 clogs and didn't over charge me like I've had done in the past with Roto Rooter. Support local owned companies is the best and this company is going above and beyond. Mahalo Tony and Patrick.

I was in need of a plumber and I came across their website from Google. Their website is what overall made me decide to give them a shot, it was a nice layout with a real professional theme to it. I was hoping for the best yet still a little skeptical inside (due to past experiences w/plumbers) All the toilets on the bottom floor were not flushing and I had no idea what to do. Luckily, OSCAR showed up and did a quick assessment of my problem. He was real professional and thorough while explaining to me how my plumbing works in detail to the point where even I could understand. He then gave me an estimate of the service he was going to provide (I like how he just didn't try to strong arm me into the job.. Once again... From past experiences) The service was superb!!! And as a single mother maintaining a home of 5.. he was helpful in answering all my lingering questions with all the plumbing problems I deal with on a daily basis. We even scheduled another appt for him to address a few of those problems.

So my first overall experience with this company was great. I'm just hoping it continues.. Cause I have been having real bad luck with not just plumbers, but men in general.. Haha joking. Thanks again Oscar

Disappointed in their service. They fixed my leak but eventually i noticed their workers did not make sure to set everything back to the way it was when they first came. I messaged the company and showed them pics of the issue but the worker says that its not their fault and it was already this way when they came which is not true. Now they want to charge me to fix. Would not recommend.

AMKO came to the rescue as Lowe's preferred plumbing installer.  We ordered a new shower enclosure through Lowe's several months ago but through a series of  unfortunate events (NO fault to AMKO) we've JUST had the correct enclosure delivered and installed.

The first visit by AMKO occurred over six weeks ago when Alex and his helper came to remove our existing shower enclosure.  They were prompt, punctual, friendly and efficient!  Alex was personable, knowledgeable and skilled in the quick removal of the shower stall.  What I really liked was they were considerate in removing their shoes and laid down a padded tarp on our bathroom tile floor to avoid scratching the finish.  AMKO was quick to verify and confirm the accuracy of measurements that were done by a previous installer.  Unfortunately, on this first visit, we discovered that the manufacturer had produced the wrong model and size so Alex and helper just removed the shower enclosure.

On the second visit, we were excited when Lowes scheduled AMKO to install the new shower enclosure order.  Again, Alex and helper came on time and we all figured this would close out our order and installation.  Well, lo' and behold, when Alex and helper opened the box, they found that the manufacturer had sent the same incorrect enclosure but this time, there were no hinges or handles...it was just a huge sheet of tempered glass!  Alex was surprised with the error and promptly returned the incorrect product to Lowes. Luckily, our home has other bathrooms so we could still bathe...uh, in case you thought that we weren't bathing in between. Ewww.

So, the expression third time's the charm is true (for us, at least).  We amicably worked with Lowes to correct the situation and Alex returned.  Gosh, after coming up to our home 3 times previously, he didn't need a GPS to find us.  He returned with another helper, Vladimir, and opened the manufacturer's box just outside of his van as we all looked on.  Hooray!  This time, the correct product was delivered.  Alex and Vladimir carried it up three flights of stairs and quickly installed our shower enclosure.  They made sure that they didn't leave a mess even though they had to do a couple of field cuts into the metal frame (they cut it outside in their van) and still vacuumed our bathroom floor and hallway before leaving.   Alex asked my husband to feel free to inspect the installation and his opinion for satisfaction.  Geez, we've not ever had a contractor ask that!  He even followed up (returned to our home) with us the next day, Saturday, to ensure their work quality and customer satisfaction.

AMKO is the plumbing contractor arm of Hawaii Building Supply which does excellent renovation work...ah, but that's another review.

Reliable and excellent service...installed water softener due to Ewa Beach's hard water. GREAT WORK. Will definitely use his service again for any future plumbing needs...

My plumber recommended RayCo when it was discovered I had a hot water leak under the slab of my 2 story house.  I was told that normally the hot water line is rerouted outside the house and sometimes cutting the interior drywall to snake the new line.  It might even have to go through my kitchen cabinets depending how the water lines are routed within the house.
Our old house was a mess of water and electrical lines running around the entire house so I didn't want that for this house.  My plumber said I can do a leak detection and cut throught the slab and fix the area of the leak.  RayCo is one of the few or maybe even the only plumber that does leak detection so I called them.  Unfortunately for me, the leak wasn't able to be located without drilling multiple holes in the slab.  Also, my insurance will only pay for rerouts.  I explained to the owner Greg about how I hated the ugliness of exterior piping.  Greg said his son Brandon is a master at rerouting plumbing lines so that is it inconspicuous and they subcontract out the drywall replacement so that it is restored to as new condition.  
Two weeks later my new hot water line was snaked through the studs in my laundry room, ran outside under the eave of the house and inth the plumbing wall in the garage.  Greg and his employee Richard are very nice and easy to work with.  They complied with my insurance agents requirements for the estimate.  The installers Brandon and Matt did an impressive job as did the drywallers David and Jae.  My house still looks good and we have hot water again!

Thank you RayCo.

Davy was half the price of another quote . Very responsive, on time, clean and professional.  He even looked another piece of plumbing I was having issues with at no additional charge!  

Super cool, professional crew, still with a lot of ALOHA!  So nice to see....

Jeffrey was highly recommended by another business we were working with. He has years in the industry and it was the best experience. He has great communication skills, educates and answers all of your questions, and is so nice! And most importantly he knows what he's doing. His prices are reasonable compared to other plumbers we've worked with and we are grateful we found our plumber for our business! Highly recommend!

Next Generation Handyman Services, led by Sonny and his team, exceeded our expectations in turning our dream home into a reality. Communication with Sonny was a breeze and he provided options that I didn't even know were possible.

The renovation was completed within the accurate timeline and timeframe provided, and I was constantly kept up to date. Although there were minor delays due to supply chain issues, I was presented with options to get similar work done within the same timeline.

Sonny and his team's professionalism was top-notch, and they felt like family rather than just hired construction experts. They bring great energy and a positive attitude to any challenge, (even when my wife constantly made changes). I cannot express how happy I am with their work, and it was sad to see them go once the job was completed.

Sean has done a lot of work for me.  Different kinds of jobs and all done well at a fair price and with great communication.  He has repaired a ceiling that was water damaged from a leaking toilet that was above.  He installed a disposal that required a complete re-work of all the plumbing.  He also hung a giant heavy picture over our bed and that was no easy task, trust me.

I find him and his associates to be trustworthy, fair, polite, and eager to do a good job no matter what it is.

Shane the owner of DOB Plumbing goes above and beyond to give customers like me the best service there is!  He's courteous, thorough and knows his job very well!  I'm so thankful we found DOB Plumbing & Maintenance.. I recommend this company for all your plumbing repairs!  Thank you Shane, you guys are the best!!

We've used him twice and both times we were extremely satisfied. Fred, the owner, is licensed, responsive, and professional. We liked him as a person and would definitely recommend him.
Both times, several years apart, we had him replace faucets and there was never a problem.

Main thing I want to say is that if you call this company, MAKE SURE you ask them about all the additional charges that will probably added on top of the actual repair charges.  I had a plumber but the plumber I had scheduled couldn't do the job.  He referred Glen Fujigami/Alco Mechanical.  Glen knew that I was waiting for his plumbers, but I had to call him at least twice to follow up as to when they would arrive.  They arrived about an hour later than expected.  The repair went well and the plumbers seemed professional.  The problem started when I received the bill.  The original plumber had quoted me about $400-$450 to do the  job.  Alco's invoice was just over $700!!  The actual repair was about the same price as the original plumber.  But then there were charges for fringe benefits, payroll taxes and insurance, supervision, and even an overhead fee!  The only reason why I'm giving 2 stars and not 1 is that Glen worked something out and the plumbers did a good job.  However, bottom line is that I will not use this company again.

Came in and took care of our hidden leak problem quickly and effectively. Completed the job and helped us troubleshoot other problem areas we had around the house also. Due to Covid-19 precautions he showed up in a mask and wore it for the duration of the job. Will be my go to person for any future plumbing jobs. Thanks!

Avoid. Avoid avoid avoid. The plumber just left my home. We called because of a leak under our kitchen sink last night and had an appointment window of 10-12, he showed up at 1pm. When he came his first words were I don't have notes, what am I here for? Well, I'm not sure 100% my husband told them so I asked why the company didn't provide those details. He asked again what work He was there for so I explained the issue. Within 10 mins it was determined I needed a new disposal. He had me sign the estimate form, but the form was blank, so I took a photo of it since it seemed sketchy. It was also sketchy that he quoted me $150 for the first hour when we were told $120 last night. While he was gone buying a new disposal I sent my husband the photo and he called the company right away. Not only did they say he should not have had me sign a blank receipt, and suddenly we got an all inclusive quote. When he returned he proceeded to jokingly shame me, as he got in trouble because of the photo I took. I let him know it was my right and he proceeded to get to work. While he was working he decided it was a good opportunity to recruit me to Primerica, which is an MLM pyramid scheme not related to the business. This is beyond inappropriate, and decided to call his upline to tell them he had someone interested IN THE MIDDLE OF HIM FIXING THE DISPOSAL. When the appointment concluded he told me he didn't know how to take a credit card and asked for a check. I was not happy but found a check and paid him, taking another photo. Lastly, after signing the receipt he didn't leave my copy with me, so I chased him down before leaving and he acted as if giving me a receipt was unusal. I took it and happily sent him on his way. What a nightmare. I didn't even get proof of the cost of the disposal in the end. Go somewhere else! HomeAdviser was so very wrong.

terrible experience, not recommended, much better at Diamond Head Plumbing!
