Best Electric Water Heater Repa… in Honolulu HI

Two reviews here.  I found this review in my drafts as I was planning to write a review for LBP.  Then I'll add my new review after it.

===============
Early 2013:  One of the toilets in the house I'm renting was leaking around the base, and when I went to replace the wax seal, I found out that the toilet had been installed without a flange!  
I called LB Plumbing based on their Yelp reviews. The phone receptionist was very courteous and professional, and arranged for a plumber to come to the house.  The timeframe that they arranged was very short (4pm to 6pm), which conveniently allowed me time to get home from work (without leaving too early).  Chris and AJ showed up right on time, ran to get the parts they needed, and had the repairs done before I knew it.  The price was a lot less than I was expecting (which my landlord will appreciate), and the repairs came with a 3 month warrantee.
I was very happy that I called this company -- excellent service at a great price.  I would give them my strongest recommendation.

=================
26 Oct 2018:  I'm in a different house now, this one I own, so I only want to call a plumber I trust.   My first thought was to call LB Plumbing, and I'm glad I did.   I needed a new toilet installed, and rather than mess with it myself, I called to have it done professionally.   I removed the old toilet, and when I called, the receptionist took notes on what I needed (new wax seal, bolts, etc) and I was happy to see that these were reflected on the invoice I later received.   Tom called prior to arriving at the house and actually arrived a few minutes early.  He completed the installation quickly (less than an hour) and had all of the parts he needed.  He caulked around the new toilet and left the work area very clean.  Awesome job!  

Once again, I'm very happy with LBP's work.  I'll definitely use them again!

Editing this review because they called me for feedback and to follow-up. Definitely appreciated. Adding back two stars. They did say Manny was in training. No harm done.

Initially I was hopeful. Super friendly and fast to respond. However, Manny came out to my unit.  Offered me an option that may repair the leak for $300. The whole point of having a plumber come out was to repair the leak. He then tried to up charge me for a leak evaluation for $500. I said no thank you. Would avoid this company.

I first found JBC on the Best of list of the Honolulu star advertiser. Then I googled them and all their reviews were excellent. I like that their website stated their license # and BBB accreditation. I called them with 2 problems. They came the next day and arrived 1/2 hr early. They diagnosed both problems quickly by just looking at the problems. They quickly went to work and did a great job and finished in under an hour. The technicians were Ryan Sr and Ryan Jr. I had a leak under my kitchen sink and they left it looking clean and new. I would call JBC again.

Whitley at First Class Plumbing took great care of us.  He replaced our hot water heater in January 2022.  When it turned out we had a pre-existing but related electrical problem, he was able to get someone out to help with that quickly.  He put a lot of hours into solving our issue, and only charged us for the original quoted repair.  In our experience with him, he was honest and genuinely interested in making sure we were taken care of.  Mahalo, Whitley!

Extremely polite and responsive. Work was craftsman level and pricing was very fair. Select them for your plumbing needs and you will be impressed also.

Sonny and Mike did an amazing job of completely renovating a really old half bath in my Mom's house!  It was so old and gross and they make it look brand new.  

Great communication, efficient, and competitive pricing.       They repaired the rotting wood around the door frame and really did a meticulous job with the details.  Highly recommend for all jobs big and small, a true jack of all trades.  Mahalo!   We are really grateful for the fantastic work!

Once again, my urgent call to this business was for a broken water heater in garage storage at our Kailua rental. Plumbers and staff are quick to respond and resolve problem to the satisfaction of the renter and us while other plumbers contacted by the property manager do not respond as quickly.
We've used them at our residence in the past as well with the greatest satisfaction. All dedicated workers and staff and hard working and dedicated. Knowing how messy, unclean plumbing can be, it's a blessing to have them there in times of need.  Mahalo Jeff and staff.

This is the second time I have used Waislae Plumbing. Today they took care of a plugged sink drain. I would recommend them highly as their technicians are very skilled and efficient. Plus they are timely and customer service oriented. Great company!

I have using this company more than 10years.
Chris has  done a lot of work at my house.
He is a professional and responsible.
Just 2 days ago, Our water heater was broken.
We had a emergency happening.
He came quick to our house and fix the problem.
I appreciate them.
Thank you Chris,
I never forget!

Thank you to William services for installing our two bathroom faucets! My wife can't stop talking about them!

Even though we did not use Lin Construction they were very responsive with communication which is a huge plus when it comes to contractors. Should I need any construction work in the future I will definitely be reaching out to them.

Skillful, knows what to do, faster than expected, good quality work, affordable.  Thank you so much!!!

Great customer service!  They did a great job unclogging and cleaning out my 60 year old house's pipes.  Very polite and professional.

Just a follow up on my previous review. The plumbing job that they did ended up leaking inside my wall so we had to do a major major repair in our bathrooms and walls!!!

Mahalo  Jack,
Thank you for helping our family with our plumbing issues. Jack was very professional, setting up an appointment was very easy to do also gave text and email notifications of when en route/ arriving. Took a look at our plumbing situation and diagnosed what needs to be repaired. Problem was fixed and now our family can enjoy the hot water. Payments were very easy and convenient to use through mobile device. I definitely would recommend Hawaii Drain cleaning Squad to anyone who has plumbing problems.
Mahalo Jack Perry,
GOD BLESS!!!

I called hone & business remodel for my house total renovation and the owner of the business came to help me.  His name is alex,  he was very helpful and prompt in getting me set up with an engineer for drawing require to get permit.  The engineer was an in house and the price giving to me was very affordable compare to other contractor that I have came to estimate.  The estimated price for the construction was very reasonable and had more allowances then other.  I would recommend this company to any one, to have there house constructed.  They even answer the phone on weekend.

Our upstairs shower was leaking down to out downstairs bathroom.  Diamond Head Plumbing came to remodel the whole upstairs bathroom but they just painted over the downstairs ceiling.  About a little over a year after it started to leak again.  we've been caulking around the shower stall.  10 years later, had another contractor open it up the ceiling downstairs and found that diamond head plumbing dumped a can of pipe adhesive, lots of rubbish, lightbulb, etc. in between the two floors, during the remodeling.  Instead of removing the water damaged ceiling where it was dripping down to the first floor, they just painted right over it.  What ever crew they sent did a horrible job.   Stay tuned I will update when we get more info from our new plumber.  I would never recommend Diamond Head Plumbing.  In fact, when people ask, we tell them what our experience was.

Got a decent quote from Jay.  Said he could be out between 7:30-8:00pm.  Great!  Asked for pics of my pipes, which I sent, then never heard from him again.  No, I can't make it tonight.  No Can I reschedule?  Just silence.  I even tried calling and he wouldn't answer the phone.  I could've spent that time finding a more reliable plumber.
