    Alex from Advanced Plumbing and Drain was an exceptional plumber to work with. Granted, I am new to homeownership and so don't have a huge breadth of plumber experience, but I know a good professional when I see one. From his first call to our house when we thought we had a minor issue, through the many subsequent visits that culminated in a major repair, Alex was with us every step of the way providing full transparency into what he thought was going on and what it would take to fix it. I took the extra step to call around for a few comparison prices, and can confirm that the pricing from Advanced was also fair. His handiwork was immediately signed off by the City inspector, and he did it with a confidence that shows real experience. While I hope we have scant occasion to call on a plumber anytime soon, if we do I won't hesitate to call Alex back!

    Stay Away from Advanced Plumbing - Unprofessional, Overpriced, and Exploitative My grandparents needed a simple gutter pipe replacement, and I called Advanced Plumbing to get a quote. Ron Kapah, the representative who came out, had the audacity to quote us at an outrageous $1,450. To add insult to injury, he tore the curtain of the window while inspecting the pipe and didn't even bother to apologize, hoping I wouldn't notice. As a materials engineer with plenty of experience in house repairs and plumbing, I knew that the quote was nothing short of highway robbery. Thankfully, I was able to prevent my grandfather from falling victim to their scam, but things took a turn for the worse. I decided to get more quotes and received two reasonable ones at $450 and $300. However, I ultimately chose to do the repair myself, and it only took me 2 hours to complete the job that Advanced Plumbing had the nerve to quote at $1,450! And if that wasn't enough, a month and a half later, they had the audacity to call me, claiming I was late on paying their invoice - for work they never performed! This is a clear-cut case of a company attempting to exploit elderly clients, charging them exorbitant prices, and trying to collect money for work that was never done. There are plenty of reputable and honest plumbers out there who will treat you with respect and charge you fairly for their services - Advanced Plumbing is not one of them.

Paul responded to our request almost instantly, was at our home at 9am, and we had a functioning water heater with a new pilot assembly by 9:20am. Paul also noticed the exhaust vent wasn't correctly installed by the previous company and fixed it free of charge, which has brought our gas bill down by over 20%! Their service was priced competitively and communication was excellent throughout the process. Most importantly, they truly care. They took what could have been a nerve-wracking process and made it feel effortless.

I called Excalibur and they said this wasn't true. They could install a similar model of tankless water heater to the one I had. Their quote was almost $2000 less than the other plumber. I since had an HVAC company come out for something else and mentioned I had to change the heater recently. I told him what I paid and he said that was honestly a good price. Excalibur seemed honest and helpful and they were able to come out first thing the next morning and get my heater replaced. They did a good job and the new unit looks better installed than the original. They also gave me advice on how to maintain it and what maintenance I could do myself to descale it etc so it doesn't break again. Overall happy either way the service even though overall it was expensive it was still less than other quotes I got.

I received a text from Discount Plumbing Rooter Services the night before, letting me know that they would arrive between 8am-10am the next morning. They even included a photo of the plumbing tech that would be stopping by - as well as a fun fact about them. Knowing that I had firm window of when they would be arriving and who to expect - put me at ease right away. The next day - I received a text alerting me to the plumber's upcoming arrival. Adan G arrived with a big welcoming smile, and with his teenage son in tow. They were so professional and put on disposable shoe covering booties over their feet right away to enter our place. Once inside - they were quick to access the situation and use a large snake device to unclog the blockage. They were so personable throughout the process. I loved learning when talking to both of them, that Adan's son - has been dreaming of becoming a plumber since he was three years old. He was a huge help throughout the process and he would hand tools to his father upon his request. Once finished - they were prompt with cleaning up any pipe residue on the bathtub. It was beautiful to see water easily going down the drain. All three of us looked on with satisfied approval. If you're looking for a reliable, skilled, and friendly plumbing service to help you with a clogged drain or plumbing issue - I highly recommend reaching out to Discount Plumbing Rooter Services. Trust.

We originally hired a plumber who claimed to have replaced the broken part, took payment, and assured us everything would be fine. Unfortunately, the issue continued, and we found ourselves relighting the pilot over and over again. Once winter arrived, taking cold showers in the morning became almost unbearable. I finally decided to look for a true water‑heater specialist and came across The Water Heater Guys on Yelp. I called and spoke with Luigi, who was incredibly easy to talk to. He asked for the serial number and immediately knew the model of our unit. After I explained the daily issues my family was dealing with, he told me what he believed the problem was and provided a clear quote. We scheduled an appointment, and Luigi arrived right on time. He instantly identified the issue and repaired everything that needed to be fixed. From that day forward, we've had consistent warm water. It's such a relief to finally have a water heater that works--no more cold showers! I'm truly grateful to Luigi for his professionalism, efficiency, honesty and kindness. Ten stars for The Water Heater Guys! Highly recommended.
