Highly recommended! My wife am I own an aging 1 bed/1 bath condo in Sunnyvale. I've been shopping around for months for a reasonable, honest and preferably independent plumbing service to replace the old degraded water supply line shutoff valves under our kitchen and bathroom sinks. Three never got back to me after initial contact and discussions. One seemed overpriced. Eddie / #1 Honest Plumber, on the other hand, was very responsive, honest, reasonably priced and pleasant to work with. I will definitely be contacting them again for any future plumbing concerns. read more

Highly recommended! I needed help to finish a botched faucet removal and replacement done by a previous plumber (i.e., yours truly!). The job was complicated by 16 years of rust and hard water and pre-existing terrible cracked granite countertops that hadn't been sealed and protected well at all around the faucet area. Eddie was able to schedule me within 48 hours of my call and Jorge from #1 Honest Plumber showed up ready to go. He inspected the issues with my sink and gave me an extremely reasonable flat-price quote to do the work. I agreed and then watched as Jorge did a skillful surgery to excise what remained of the old faucet, patched up my terrible granite like a dentist would patch up a cavity, and installed and tested my new faucet and soap dispenser. Jorge was polite, friendly, professional, efficient, tidy, careful and didn't even roast me for my ham-fisted attempts at DIY work before he showed up. It doesn't get much better than that! Thanks, #1 Honest Plumber team. You guys had my back and I will 100% call you back again when I get in over my head on a plumbing job. read more

Everything has gone so well with #1 Honest Plumber ... we have used their services 6 times now over the past five years. Ed, the owner, returns our calls quickly if not answering right away. Jorge is the excellent plumber who came to the house for clogged drains, toilet repairs, new faucet installs, and adding a water line for our new refrigerator. Jorge does excellent work, is very friendly, on time, and we feel the prices are reasonable! They are definitely our Go-To plumbers! Highly recommended!! read more

Jorge snaked out our sewer line well and quickly. Other plumbers have tried to oversell and overcharge. #1 Honest Plumbers lives up to their name. read more

I was not disappointed, and you won't be either. Eddie, the owner, is truly the most honest, knowledgable and kindest plumber you will find. I worried over hiring a plumber, or any company for that matter, which touts being #1 honest. In Eddie's case, I found this to be a true. Eddie and Juan did a fantastic job replacing my house lateral waste line. I saved at least $5k going with them rather than my previous plumber whose quote was 30% more and did not include concrete repair. This review should have been posted a year ago and I apologize to anyone who has missed out on Eddie's services because of my on-line missteps. I will update soon with photos of the excellent work they performed at my house. read more

We found a leak in our water system in the kitchen under the sink. We remembered getting some really good help from Eddie at 1HonestPlumber and we gave him a call. Jorge came out and found problems with some of the pipes: leaking under the kitchen sink. We arranged for a service call the next day. Jorge arrived the next day and found a big problem with the drain pipes in our system. He opened the wall behind the sink and found failed connections between pipes. Further investigation under the house located more leaks. Jorge dealt with each of the discovered problems, restoring the system to good operation. By the end of the afternoon, all the connections were restored and the leakage cleaned up. #1 Honest Plumber did a great job of getting us back on line. read more

George was just here and cleaned out the cleanout at my home. We snaked it all the way to the main line and he pulled out a baby wipe! Wow, I was impressed. I was having a problem with my washing machine overflowing and he cleared out a few clogs, plus found the wipe! He came on time, gave me a very reasonable quote upfront, and did a great job! I highly recommend this company!! read more

They were prompt, finished the work efficiently, were very respectful and friendly, and honestly did a really great job.

Called #1 Honest Plumber for some help with odor from shower drain. He offer some advice and advise he cannot help much if there is no drainage issue -- probably one of the most honest answer I heard. He advise it may be bacterial growth, so I googled what I need to do, $50 and 1 hour later, issue is resolved. Thank you sir. read more

We had a faucet carriage replaced by our home warranty. They did a bad job and sent 3 other plumbers came out without being able to fix it. I called Eddie and schedule George to come out. He came out on time and fixed it within an hour, the thing that 4 other plumbers couldnt do. Eddie and George are one of the nicest plumbers/people Ive met. The type pf plumbers who dont act like they are doing you a huge favor, their pricing is reasonable. I also called them for help on 2 other occasions, even they couldn't help me due to my circumstances, not once that they acted hostile and upset about it. I would recommend them to any of your plumbing needs read more

I have tried several plumbers, but Eddie is the best. He is sincere, honest, will get the job done in a timely manner. Jorge does a very thorough job and always discusses the work involved and pros and cons. I would wholeheartedly recommend using them! read more

Highly recommended. Yes, he is honest. And dependable, professional, and highly competent. Eddy responded right away and gave me clear, up-front pricing (not all of them do that--one, in particular wanted $39 to give me a price estimate!). Laid out the options for price if he came out immediately or if we wait until morning; all the prices were reasonable. He came out when he said he would. Job turned out to be a little difficult (because my sewer line is very long) but he knows what he is doing and has a 150-foot drain snake (most companies carry a 100-foot at most). 15 years running this business. I will call Eddy every time. read more

I'm generally not one to write reviews, but I must praise and recommend Eddie's services!!! Eddie was not only our savior for our plumbing issue but a genuinely lovely person. He did such a thorough job, and you can tell he truly puts his customers at the forefront of his work! Great and fast service that made this nightmare so much easier. He also made sure to explain the process and answered any questions we had! Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and I couldn't recommend his services enough!! read more

#1 Honest Plumber replaced our toilet in 2024 and install a hot water heater in 2025. Everything works great. Prices were reasonable.

I contacted #1 Honest Plumber about a clogged drain on a Sunday after spending an unsuccessful 5+ hours trying to diy. Ed responded immediately and was able to fit me in Monday afternoon. His plumber arrived within the scheduled window and was able to resolve the problem within 20 minutes. He explained everything before and during the time he was there. The price was within the initial estimate and less than that charged by another company for a similar job. read more

Hands down one of the best contractors I've ever had the pleasure of hiring for work needed at my home. I called Eddie late the in day yesterday after discovering my 15 year old water heater no longer worked and I couldn't get the pilot light and burner back on. This was around 4pm and he already had quite a few jobs booked for the following day. We were originally looking at scheduling service for 2 days later but he called back and let me know that he could squeeze me in the following day between his other jobs. He texted later that evening to confirm that he picked up the new water heater. The next day, he arrived and started draining the old water heater, stopped by his other jobsite while that was going, then came back and installed the new water heater. He had a ton of calls coming in too and I was pretty impressed at how well he was juggling multiple projects and conversations. After he finished, he cleaned up the area and then skedaddled over to another job that was in progress. During the whole process, we had a great chat about trade work, cars, and some of his past jobs. Overall, he was really great guy to have at the house and he gave me solid advice on some other plumbing work that I had planned on doing myself. He even donated some fittings that I might need. He followed up later that evening to confirm that the water heater was working well, and it was. The price he charged for this work was really good compared to other plumbers in the area. This was actually the 2nd time I called #1 Honest Plumber. The first time was last year for a garbage disposal replacement and Jorge provided the service for that job. Whoever had previously installed the garbage disposal before I moved into my place did an absolute hack job with the kitchen sink drain pipes and it was really difficult to service. It also didn't help that my house is pretty old and the sink's drainage system connects to a cast iron pipe that sits relatively high. Jorge redid the drain system in a much more logically appropriate orientation that would make servicing it easier in the future. He was also super polite and gave me some advice on how I could set up my reverse osmosis system. So yeah, these guys are legit. I'd wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone I care about. read more

I was referred to Ed, and he is amazing! He took the time to thoroughly explain everything we need to do, and his honesty and straightforward approach were truly refreshing. I can see why he has such great reviews! read more

Had a problem with the water pressure in our shower so I requested a quote and Eddie got back to me on a phone call. He was very thorough in enumerating all the likely causes of the problem (old shower head or faulty diverter), and scheduled George to help us take a look at it. On the day of the scheduled visit, George quickly replaced the old shower head with the new one I purchased beforehand, which immediately fixed the water pressure issue. He also offered good advice about what the process to replace the diverter would be like if we wanted to take that path later on. Great service and I'll be back again if there's anything I need in the future. read more

If you're in the need of a plumber, I would highly recommend #1 Honest Plumber! I was in need of my sewer line scoped and cleaned on a Saturday. I called Eddy, the owner, and left him a message with my dilemma on a Saturday morning. He quickly returned my call and scheduled to come to my home by 3pm. He arrived at three as promised, assessed the situation and explained to me the options for fixing the problem. Eddy was prompt, professional, and honest. Very reasonably priced. I was more than pleased with his service and will definitely call him with all my plumbing needs. Another Happy customer! read more

Eddie is very professional and he is on it! He is so amazing quick and he knows his stuff. We are satisfied with his service . If you are looking for a honest plumber literally you call this guy. He really came through I dropped my roku remote down the toilet and it clogged my toilet . He was at my house in 30 minutes and knocked it out within an hour or so . He is such a nice guy too! Call him you will not be sorry . Thank you Eddie your wonderful!!! read more

#1 Honest Plumber came to me as a referral from my neighbor who just had a good experience. Eddie was responsive, helpful and fair. I needed two PVC lines cleaned out from my front downspouts to the street. He explained the job to his man George, who did the work quickly, and right the first time. In fact, when I mentioned a difficult to find water leak running up my bill, George offered to inspect under my house for free! He found the leak, and it's fixed same day. All done for a fair price about half of what I paid to my previous plumber. I highly recommend #1 Honest Plumber! read more

A Great Plumber You Can Trust for Any Size Job We highly recommend #1 Honest Plumber. Ed and his team are awesome, kind, professional and knowledgeable! Ed has come out after hours for plumbing emergencies, and his team members have come during daytime hours to redo toilet seals, replace rusted bathroom sink drains and replace our kitchen sink faucet. Their work always exceeded our expectations. Most recently, they did a much larger job replacing our 60-year-old degraded iron drainage pipes to the main with 4" ABS including a two-way cleanout and a city cleanout. They did a fantastic job, fixed other drainage issues in the process, and all for a really good price! I am especially grateful that Ed knows how to work with the city to get the necessary permits and inspections in a timely fashion. It was a 4-day job and Ed and his guys were easy to talk to, accommodating to our needs, and thoroughly cleaned up after themselves. We will absolutely continue to use Ed and his team at #1 Honest Plumber! read more

Eddie was able to come right away to fix our clogged kitchen sink. He diagnosed the issue fast, explained it clearly and laid out fix options. He was able to do the fix fast and well, and offered a 1 yr guarantee too! He also generously gave me advise on another issue with a bathroom tap. read more

Ed and his team worked quickly and professionally to replace our tree-damaged (cracked and blocked) sewer main that was turning our front yard into a swamp. They added a city clean out and a 2-way building clean out, doing all the necessary permit work with the city. Thanks to Ed's immediate response to our situation, we didn't have to worry about the rainy January turning the inside of our home wet and gross as well. He unblocked our sewer main within a day (to keep our household of 4 going), then took the time to assess and communicate the situation, giving us *honest* options on how to move forward. We decided on a full replacement to have that peace of mind. To get the job done, Ed and his team worked between bouts of rain (and the other jobs they had to handle) to dig the necessary holes for the pipe burst machine (including quite a bit of hand-digging under our house to reach the ABS pipe). Ed handled everything, communicated well, and left our home & front yard with barely noticeable signs there had been any work done at all. We have some new grass to grow and a few rose bushes to plant, and that's it! Thank you Ed and team! read more

These guys are the best most honest folks you will ever hire! Others quoted me well over 1.5k for what these guys took for

Speedy response to request. Technician was here in 15 minutes. Price was excellent value compared to other plumbers. Will definitely use these guys again. read more

A plumber that matches it's name sake "#1 Honest Plumber". Ed was very fast in responding to my inquiry and price is more than reasonable. I once have a plumber that unclog my drain and keep running the machine for 1 hour and 5 minutes and then charges me 2 hours for the service call. It only took Ed less than 1/2 an hour. #1 Honest Plumber is a rare find among the industry. read more

Ed was awesome. I had a clog and a few drains backing up with water. Made the call at 8 AM and Ed and his team were here by 9. They quickly diagnosed the situation and explained the different possibilities that could be causing the issue. After explaining a lower cost / lower probability option and a higher cost / higher likelihood of success option, they continued to investigate and ended up identifying a 3rd option, that was fast and cheaper than both the other options provided. They made the fix, stayed to confirm everything was working and done within 30-45 minutes. It's so refreshing to work with Ed, who was professional, honest, takes pride in his work and operates with integrity. If I run into any issues down the road, I'll definitely contact Ed first! read more

Ed is a total professional and does good work. I would highly recommend him if you need plumbing assistance, plus his rates are very reasonable and he gets the job done! read more

I had a guy come out for a quote and he started saying a lower price and then changed it to higher price. Then I called the owner Eddie to confirm price and he too said he did not know. So just don't feel right from the beginning. Needless to say I did not go with them. If owner doesn't even know pricing on changing a valve then they can set any price? read more

Contacted this company, Ed called me back quickly. I had a clotted drain in my kitchen. He came out the next day,took care of the problem. On time , reasonable rate, great business owner. I highly recommend this company and definitely will call them if needed in the future. Thanks Honest Plumber read more

Ed snaked our sewer line and then replaced it. Experienced and reliable work. Lives up to the name "honest plumber".

They definitely live up to their name - honest, professional and reliable. They showed up because we were smelling sewer gas coming from our shower drain. They not only Cleaned the drain- it needed it. But they also found and fixed the root cause of the problem- a toilet seal that was broken in the other bathroom down the hall! It had been slow leaking/ accumulating sewage. So gross and unsanitary. They cleaned and sanitized the area and reseated the toilet. Immediately after they left no more smell. We are all quite literally breathing a sigh of relief and so happy that the smell is gone. THANK YOU! If you need an honest, smart, skilled and fair plumber - you have him. read more

Eddie did a fantastic job fixing our clogged drain. He knows his stuff and was able to diagnose and quote me a price over the phone. He stuck to that after he arrived promptly and finished the job. I highly recommend this business. read more

Eddie just pulled a massive amount of hair out of my daughter's shower, and showed me how to do it myself next time. I asked him to snake a sink that sometimes runs slow, but is currently running fine, and he explained why I should wait. And then, he refused to let me pay him since he hadn't been able to come out the very day I contacted him. He really is the #1 Honest Plumber. Two enthusiastic thumbs up! read more

I had an emergency last week and the owner, Eddie, was doing all he could to get one of his plumbers to help me. George showed up at 6pm after a long day underneath a house on another job and stopped by on his way home to determine the problem and I was so grateful...and, Eddie kept in touch with me for hours with updates on George's arrival. The issue was much larger and couldn't be resolved that evening and Eddie texted me that he would come by himself in the morning after he set up his workers on another job. He arrived when he said he would, determined the problem and it was a doozy, and resolved it in a few hours!!! So grateful....thanks, Eddie! read more

Eddie and George have been out to our house a couple times already clearing drains and being generally amazing. They are direct, on time, and really kind. I have had to deal with quite a few plumbers in my time and #1 honest plumbers have been the best we've ever dealt with hands down, cannot recommend them enough! read more

That was amazing! My garbage disposal stopped working. It was making a humming sound but not turning. I was planning on scheduling an appointment. But they consulted me over the phone with a free tip using garbage disposal key. It totally worked and saved a trip! I can truly attest to the honesty of the service and next time I have plumbing issue, I'm gonna call here for sure! Thank you! read more

I have had two experiences with Eddie and his company. Both experiences were great. I have high standards and I have had bad experiences with other plumbers. Eddie's pricing was fair and the job was excellent. read more
