Best Businesses in Virginia Beach, VA

This was not the first time I have used them and will not be the last.  From multiple broken pipes, to faucet leaks, to AC help, to most recently the hot water heater.  I love these guys.  They are caring, knowledgeable, and quick to get the job done.  When they come to service your home they make you feel like the only customer for the day and go above and beyond.  When installing my hot water heater that is next to my dryer they took the time to help me with my lint trap and went the extra mile with sweeping behind the dryer to clean it up. (Not even their mess). I would recommend these guys and will only use them moving forward.

I've never had to contact a plumber before so was worried as I've heard more horror than good stories.  My experience with Donnie at Portsmouth Plumbing was definitely a good one to write about! We had to reschedule our original appointment due to an emergency, but he was very apologetic. For our new  appointment he arrived on time, was able to diagnose the problem with my two toilets quickly and fixed it faster than I thought possible!  His prices were more than fair, definitely not the arm and leg I was afraid of!

I never thought about giving a review to a plumber, but recent experience shows you can find bad or lazy or sloppy plumbers, but it is hard to find a good plumber. I found one! This guy shows up on time, is meticulous and through in his work and bills fairly. I had Johnny do one project for me, he has at least one to two more just from me. He was referred to me by real pros in the business, and they were actually right. He is the best I have found locally and I would encourage you to give him a try.

My first encounter with Justin was during a bathroom remodel in which I already had a hired plumber. He looked over the work that was done, said it was subpar with cut corners, and confronted the plumber for me getting him to re do the work for no charge. He earned my respect and has had PLENTY of my business since then.
Justin has consistently provided top notch work at my home. He responded to an emergency sewage issue that two other companies couldn't fix, installed a tankless water heater, removed the boiler, installed a brand new gas line and made all the new connections look stellar, replaced replaced toilets... and more. There hasn't been a issue he wasn't able to fix and charges far less than major companies. Anyone that can match his pricing isn't going to get the job done correctly.
I can't recommend Justin and Flotech Services enough! He's now taken care of friends and family and everyone thanks me for the recommendation. So glad he FINALLY set up Yelp so I can for all recognize him!

Mine is just an observation, of professionalism and what I perceived as genuine concern and pride in a job well done.
The team work of the persons at the site and the patience of the guy leading to explain their progress and the vision of the task at hand... I found to be impressive.
Should I own a home/ have a home built, or be abreast of someone in the process of needing their services.. I have the number on hand

Nobody is ever excited to deal with a plumbing issue but Ali-Cor definitely made the situation less stressful. I decided I wanted to upgrade my sink & faucet in our house from the old double basin sink. When we started the project, we barely got started when we realized our sink pipes were leaking. We shut them all the way off and they still leaked. To say I was stressed out would be putting it lightly. Then once we kind of fixed the leak, and turned the water back on ALL pressure was gone. I messaged Ali-Cor last night and they responded almost immediately, able to come today! Brandon was our tech and was scheduled to be here 1-3ish. He called early to let me know his first job was more complex than they expected, but he still showed up right on time! He helped change out our old (clearly wrecked) pipes, and removed the old sink and installed our new one for me! He was friendly, efficient, and very tidy. Very kind and put up with my chatty-ness too for the few hours he was here  the quote was less than expected and more than reasonable in my opinion. We definitely found our go-to plumbing company and will be recommending to anyone who needs work done in the future !

Contacted them for an issue we had recently and they responded the same day and solved the issue , Ron was very communicative and his workers too . Puntual and not crazy expensive compare to other companies i have contracted before .

Sonny's folks do a good job if and when they show up to do the work and you can afford to wait. Called on a Monday the response from the dispatcher was someone will call you when they are on the way out. Assumption was we'd be there whenever that time came. This review is being written 48 hours later.  Like many small outfits residential service generally sinks to the bottom of the priority list. BTW not cheap either.

If I could I would definitely do a half star rating, all of the workers are rude and don't complete a job

Though Mr. McDonald is pleasant to speak with there is too much going on with the company for them to even get out to see you.  I spoke with him the day before they were supposed to come out & he stated he would call me in the morning to schedule a time in the afternoon.  Nothing. Late afternoon I called him, no clue who I was nor the conversation that we had 18 hours earlier.  I guess for us, we were lucky that it was on a semi-emergency & that we have more than 1 bathroom.
We have used them before with no real issues......but it will make me think twice before I will call them again, and that will NOT be any time soon

Never Have Them Do Your Work!

These people are con artist and they rip their customers off, taking advantage of their situation. We called them to come out for a service call on our AC unit, it took 3 days for them to get there. They were in my home (on a week day during normal business hours) for approximately 30 minutes and charged me $669.90 to change out my thermostat (and nothing more). When I objected they had a bad attitude and were unwilling to make any price adjustment. I called around and nobody in Virginia Beach charges that for a simple thermostat replacement. Contract these people at your own risk!

Additionally, the urgency to getting the thermostat/AC fixed was related to health problems! I had to pay their fees... Never again.

Oh, and by the way;  they only post positive reviews on their own website which is password protected so people like me with complaints cannot post.

I only gave one star, If no stars were an option I would have selected none!

called for A/C unit replacement. work was subpar. had to call him back. eventually I had to fix the installation myself, we ended up with ceiling and floor damage. I would not recommend.
