Best Solar Water Heater Repair in Honolulu HI
They were called by my worthless American Home Shield warranty company for a leaky hot water heater. LBP did come out, Micheal was friendly enough and recommended replacing the entire water heater without doing much trouble shooting. Long story short as to why only 2 stars - it took another 3 days to get an answer if the AHS was going to cover (from either AHS or LBP), then another 3 days to get a quote to repair. I called every day (sometimes 2 or 3 times) just get an update, not once was the phone answered. And my calls were rarely returned. The quote was over $1,500. I had the hot water heater fixed today for $600 by another company. Mike the plumber was nice enough, I was disappointed with the company as a whole.

My kitchen sink was clogged and I needed a plumber to snake the pipes. Called 535 Plumbing and was pleasantly surprised that they would be able to come the same day. Keone and his partner came 45 minutes earlier than expected and took only about 30 minutes to fix the problem. They were courteous and efficient. Cost was $199+tax. You may want to write a check to avoid paying a 3% surcharge if using a credit card.
I am very satisfied with this company, and I will definitely use them again. Will also refer this company to friends.

I did NOT use this company for plumbing because 2 appointments never saw daylight: One switched to an earlier date (great) and then that one was cancelled due to 'the tech that does this type work is not available' the day prior. I am on my THIRD plumbing company trying to change out a tankless water heater and do the filters and service valves a proper install requires (not done on the old unit by original plumber and it knocked out after 2 years since we could not flush it w/vinegar to stop calcification build up) ...and they all SAY they know how, show up and know nothing. (The first company was looking it up on Utube!!! NO THANK YOU!) These guys sounded great, said they have a tech for this, but bail twice. Today when I CB to reschedule? Said they are overbooked TWO MONTHS out. Doubtful. Sorry. I went with Steve's Plumbing who have a specialist contractor for JUST tankless systems and can come tomorrow. I haven't had hot water for a month:( Brrr...Perhaps other type plumbing jobs are great as the reviews say w/Full Service--but NOT tankless. If there even is anyone there that knows how to repair/switch units. I'm flabbergasted that this is THREE plumbing companies now who seem unable to admit they don't do this type plumbing...or they make an appointment when unable to accomodate it? Huh? Go with Steve's.

This company came to my house to give me an estimate for a bathroom renovation in January. I tried emailing and calling them several times to get the estimate or find out if they needed more information, but they never returned my calls or emails.

I am dealing with David regarding a mistake one of their plumbers made at my home. I hope it can be resolved equitably...will update as soon as possible. When resolved I hope to be able to rate them again.

Jaren was excellent and I would recommend him to anyone looking for a high quality plumber. We live in an older apartment building where all of our faucets and the shower started leaking at about the same time. He was able to fit us in quickly and the pricing was reasonable. Another plumber I received a quote from told me that the tile would need to be cut to repair our shower -- Jaren was able to fix it quickly without cutting tile. He ended up replacing all our faucets, a guest bathroom sink and installing a new kitchen sink/faucet. We couldn't be happier with his work and how accessible he is.

I wanted to replace 2 light fixtures in my kitchen (fluorescent to LED) and searched on Yelp.for recommended electricians. 5 responded. 1 was out of town, 1 was a handyman, and 2 electricians gave estimates. My conso requires a licensed electrician so the handyman wqs out. Of the 2 electricians, Lin construction was very responsive in the dialog and able to accomodate me the same day. I did not have the LED fixture and their electrician went and bought it before coming. They were not the cheapest but did good work and was very personable. Installed, cleaned up and was on his way in 2 hours. Highly recommend Lin Construction. They do plumbing, renos and other thins as they are a licensed contractor.

We are selling our house and the home inspection revealed that there was no water main shutoff valve. Jason came out within an hour of my call to him, assessed the situation, came back the next morning, and installed the valve. He had to dig up a lot of grass and dirt, but put everything back so it looks just the way it did before, and the new homeowners will now have this excellent safety feature readily available. Totally professional, totally fantastic work!

The team was great! They came in quickly and set up to help with water damage due to a water heater leak. They were able to identify the trouble areas and immediately got to work on drying them up to prevent any further damage. Everything was explained in a way I could understand and answered all of my questions. Super friendly and helpful. They even dealt with the insurance company for me! Less stress for me to handle during an already stressful situation. The leak is fixed and everything is good to go. I would definitely reccomend them and I'll be using them again in the future. Ask for Tim, he was great!

WARNING!!! Do not get these guys to even come out! My water heater was having issues. Most common causes is thermostat or heating elements. In the end, I did it myself and works perfectly now.
Anyway, they charged like $45 to come look. Ok np totally understand that charge. I'm not a plumber but mentioned to the guy if it could possibly be the thermostat or heating elements. He totally ignored what I asked and he only comes in with an IPad. Is tapping all sorts of stuff on the screen and says all the hookups is wrong, that type of heater is a piece of junk. blah blah blah. Then shows me an estimate for $3500!!!
I'm like: Wait is this to replace everything? He says yes, so I said no I just want hot water. He says he can change the thermostat only but no guarantees which I get, but geez can you do some sort of diagnostics? He said replacing the thermostat would be almost $1200! The thermostat only costs like $20 and takes maybe 30min to replace! Wtf?! I told him no thanks.
Check this out, he then tells me he can do it on his own for me for $800! Unreal! Still ridiculous and you're on the companies time soliciting business for yourself?! Wow! I again told him no thanks and thought he left. About 10-15min later I go outside and he's still parked in the driveway. He comes out and says: I talked to my boss and we can do the thermostat for $655. What the heck?! I said nope and he looked stunned that I said no and he finally left. What kind of business is this?! FRAUDSTERS !!! They should be called NO Aloha Plumbing instead!

This company is a complete and utter disaster.
avoid at all costs. Took five different guys a week to perform a relatively simple plumbing operation.

Jack fixed our kitchen pipes in December 2019. I like him. This is his own business so he's invested in its success and doing good work. He's efficient, communicated clearly about what was needed and why, and charged fairly. I have more work I plan to use his company for in the coming months.
He also educated me about a better way shut-off valves should be installed for a dishwasher installation and the drainage function of an air-gap for the dishwasher. Mine didn't have one.
He knows his stuff and has years of experience. Support this family business.

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.

I had a major sewer line blockage that choked water from flowing through the sewer line. All of my toilets and drains where clogged and could not be used until the plumbers from Diamond Head Plumbing worked to locate the source of the problem under the house. The two plumbers and the owner (!) helped to solve this huge plumbing problem, and I would definitely recommend them to folks in a similar situation. Really appreciate their professionalism!

Terrible service. We had a leaky old water heater, replacement to be covered by AHS. They sent Tad. He was here for 5 minutes, then left and did not answer his phone for weeks. Eventually said the new water heaters he was getting in stock had a faulty part, and he was waiting for that to be resolved. Ok fine, but you have to give us updates! He made several appointments, and did not show up or call. When I was able to get him on the phone, he said he doesn't work on rainy days!
7 weeks later, he came to install. Complained repeatedly about how hard it was going to be, then looked at the water heater again and told me he had brought the wrong size! This leaves me to assume we had waited for 7 weeks on a part that we didn't need. He left, promising to come back in the morning. He did not show up, and made no effort to contact me. He canceled the service with AHS, telling them it was a 2 man job and he didn't have help that day. Still refuses to answer the phone... (We were assigned Little Big Plumbing after all of this, and they were awesome!)
Do not use this business!

I made a last minute call to Kamaaina Plumbing at 12pm. requesting if they could install my toilet that my neighbor had taken off and wasn't able to install the new 1, the wonderful receptionist took my information down and called me a few minutes later. She informed me that they would be able to send someone over at 3pm. the same day. Lucky me because it was so difficult to get a same day appointment. At 3pm. a young man named Kalani arrives. Kalani was so pleasant and very respectful, He installed 2 toilets for us and did a FANTASTIC job. We thanked Kalani for doing this job as a last minute notice and he said its his pleasure to help customers, he said that when someone calls he knows they really need to get it done. He is so wonderful we will use Kamaaina Plumbing should we need other work done and we will request for KALANI. Thank you Kamaaina Plumbing for having awesome staffing. Give them a call. Aloha Kuulei

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.
