    Water piping for toilet & kitchenette sink
    Carmela S.

    Colburn Plumbing was recommended through friends of ours when I asked for a consistent, reliable, and reasonable plumber who would actually work on the windward side! I know, it's crazy and ridiculous to have to preface a request with "consistent and reliable", but believe it or not, Colburn Plumbing was the seventh company we called! Everyone else charged extra for working on the windward side, or came out to look at the job and never respond with an estimate, or worse yet, never even had the courtesy to respond to my request! We had a minor communication drop for a week and a half or two where I didn't hear back from Colburn after they confirmed they were going to start work that week. I emailed and did not hear back from them, so I reached out to a friend's father who is in plumbing just in case Colburn did not come through. Thankfully, Colburn Plumbing's scheduler, Makana, coordinated to have someone come out right after the holiday. Dave Gauer was the plumber assigned to our plumbing project, and he was amazing! He was professional, on time, patient as he was training a helper, friendly, and knew his trade! By the way, he completed the job in two days, whereas a couple other plumbers felt it would take a week! Dave understood exactly what we wanted and needed for our project, and was able to suggest more efficient alternatives as well. After he had finished, he tested his system and fixed any small leaks that he found. That was proactive so that we did not have to have them come back out for repairs. I cannot tell you how pleased we are with Colburn Plumbing, and especially with Dave's work! We highly recommend them, especially if you are on Windward side. They are reasonably priced, fast, professional, and most importantly, RELIABLE! We will definitely be using them, and recommending them in the future. Mahalo Dave, Bruce, & Makana for your help & work!

    Edited out personal info, but is otherwise untouched.

    I'm giving this company a 5 star review, mainly, because the plumber who came to fix my issues did…read moreso professionally and expediently and brought a huge amount of ALOHA with him! I did try to fix the issue myself but gave up. A huge shout out to Kekoa Tapaoan for doing an amazing job. Yes, it was pricey, much more than expected. But the repairs are sound and I was pleased at his plumbing expertise. The negative reviews are mostly about price and yes, the price was high, but I needed it done and approved the cost prior to him moving forward. Will I use probably use Steve's again. Mostly because they are quick to respond and efficient. But if it is a big job, I might get a second quote.

    Plumbing repair by Steves plumbing. Water is leaking from my…read moreshower so i contacted steves plumbing and they showed up promptly, while checking the fixture the tech checked the water pressure which was over 200 psi. He said i need to change the prv valve before any repairs could be done as the water pressure should be around 60psi. I have changed the prv in the past, about 4/5 years ago so i told him to go ahead and change it as im pressed for time havjng to work and prepare for the incoming typhoon. He didnt have a valve so needed to go to city mill to get one which they had in stock. The total repair came out to $4100, of which and i'll break it down cost wise. Costs gotten at a consumer pricing from Home Depot Now mind you this is the retail pricing for an normal consumer, not professional pricing (what you or i would pay if going into the store) Prv valve $89 5' length 3/4" copper pipe $50 Fittings $50 Ball valve shut off $ 19 Total of parts $208 $4100 minus the parts needed $208 $3892 labor 18 minutes to complete the repair, say 30 to make it easy $7784 in labor charge per hour I guess i should have purchased a solderless crimper and done it myself for a savings of $3900 Work was done professionally and quickly as promised and the area cleaned up before completion but the labor cost is whats bugging me- guess i got into the wrong profession

    I needed my main isolation valve replaced due to a leak and reached out to Elite Drain Solutions…read morefor an estimate on 4/16. I was contacted by Kristian almost immediately and he proceeded to ask me for more detailed information as to what my situation was and needed to be done. Very clear communication throughout the three to four messages and he was able to place me into his schedule on 4/18. He provided me a clear timeline when he would arrive and when he estimated to be complete with the job. Day of our appointment Kristian contacted me to inform me he had a previous appointment rescheduled by a client and asked if he could start the job earlier which worked out great for me. After the job was complete he showed me the completed work and walked me through how to use the new isolation valve he had installed. He even cleaned up the work area so it's like he wasn't even there except for the new equipment he installed. From my initial inquiry for an estimate to project completion was less than three calendar days. Finding a business that provides a timely estimate for a project and follows through by doing what they say when they say they will do it is exceedingly rare in 2026. Support local when they're as amazing as Kristian and Elite Drain Solutions, no drama, no delays, quality work done right.

This is my second attempt at fixing the connection issue- I called Kris last minute when I noticed the leak (after an attempted repair and just replacing the J trap). The entire experience was super efficient- Kris came out within hours of placing the problem call and with photos sent and background info, he was able to give me a quote that was reasonable to the issue with solution that involved leveling out existing pipe to fit a standard P-trap. Service was very quick and I appreciate that he took the time to check the disposal as well to replace the inner tube. No high cost emergency visit fee, reasonable price for a fix that would ensure lasting function. Thank you Kris and it was a pleasure meeti

Chad treated the property with respect, making sure everything was tidy before he left. He even came out on short notice over the weekend without price gouging, which says a lot about his integrity.

That personal touch really sets him apart. Reliable, trustworthy, and fairly priced--Kawamoto's has earned my full trust.

He handles a comprehensive range of issues with equal skill. His work included everything from replacing old, damaged pipes to successfully clearing the most stubborn clogged drains. The best part? When we needed a new water heater, he didn't just replace the old unit--he recommended a hybrid water heater that has already started saving us a significant amount of money on our utility bills. This is a true professional committed to ethical, long-term solutions. Honestly, he is so good that we almost don't want to recommend him to anyone else, just so he doesn't get fully booked up and won't have time for us! But his professionalism deserves to be recognized. Look no further for a trustworthy and highly skilled plumber.
