I would like to thank Israel for his quick response for my plumbing needs. He did an excellent job and was very knowledgeable. He explained the process and the quote was manageable. Thank you. read more

They came out on a Sunday to clear a sewage drain for a small apartment complex. He was courteous, professional, and thorough. We have to have plumbers here several times a year. This is the first time Erwin & Sons Plumbing Services came. They checked to see that it was clear out at the street drain. In my opinion, they went above and beyond the call of duty. Oh, and the business is veteran owned. read more

This guy is good at heart .... I use him twice ....he is one of the best in modesto....

Father and son team worked to try and clear our clogged drain with a snake. They were here for an hour and couldn't succeed. They didn't charge anything..."we only charge if we can fix it". Only problem is now I have mud instead of a clogged drain...not sure where we go from here. read more

Wow! These guys are great! We are on vacation, and got the dreaded call...The water heater is out! Our other plumber didn't answer or call back so--thank you Yelp-- we called Erwin and Son, and these guys made replacing a water heater soooo easy. and even better, the cost was an excellent value! Thanks guys...you are now our "go to" guys from here on out! read more

Erwin & Sons Plumbing Services - Looks & works great! - Plumbing Near Me

Erwin & Sons Plumbing Services saved me over $200.00 from another service who came out and wanted to stick me for a simple 20 minute leak repair. Soon as the recommended home warranty (other plumber service) found out my repair wasn't covered, they thought since they were there they would try and stick me, but good. Thanks to my dad, I know a little about plumbing and going with my gut feeling I sent them away. Thankfully I ran into Erwin & Sons Plumbing at the local hardware store and my inquiry with Brian turned out to be not only a money saving experience, but also a Erwin & Sons customer for life. Need a plumber? call Erwin and Sons Plumbing service and get the job done right, fast and affordable. Mr. Martinez read more

Erwin and Sons are top notch in their work and customer service. Excellent prices, and great value for money!!

Terrible about returning calls, should've been my first clue! I had a leak in my bathtub faucet. Brian and his son looked at it and said it was a major job. He had to go through the wall and unfortunately break some tile which is old and hard to replace. He kept saying other plumbers would charge twice what he does. Then acted like he was doing me the biggest favor! All the while lying! It ended up costing $700 and they wrecked my tile, and never came back to finish the job. Make sure you don't pay them before they're done! And then it's still questionable. It only worked the last 3 months. Then started leaking terribly again! I had someone else come out and he fixed the leak in about 15 minutes, and also said in his 30 years of plumbing he had never seen an O ring used. He said they used wrong parts! They never finished the job and ripped off a lady on a limited income!! I had to pick 1 star to post this, it should be negative 5 stars!! read more

Erwin & Sons Plumbing Services - Tile is cut crooked , chipped, and wasn't caulked. - Plumbing Near Me

See all

I called them on a rainy Sunday as my dishwasher was plugged somewhere and I just got through cleaning up a major overflow. Brian actually had me troubleshoot a couple things prior to coming out as he didnt want me to pay for something that I could potentially fix. I followed the instructions and couldnt find the problem so I had him come out. He and another guy were courteous, gave me some good tips on dealing with an overlowing dishwasher and found the culprit which was a rubber leg that peeled off a cutting board blocking the drain. Cleaned up after himself and just handled the whole situation professionally. Thanks to Brian and Erwin and Sons... read more

These guys are awesome. They just saved me two days in a row. The first on a SUNDAY when a "little home repair" went wrong... they were really nice about it- told us that the issue wasn't our fault- we couldn't have solved the issue on our own, and didn't gouge us. Today when i went into my office and the water was off- they were on site within 1 hour! When I called him and explained what was happening (I was perplexed)- he knew exactly what had happened (copper pipes stolen)- and they had everything fixed and working in just a few hours. These guys are really nice, down to earth. They work well on old houses too- which is a huge place. The "son" is thin and able to get into hard to reach places (another plus). read more

Very quick, honest, and cheap. Had some roots in my sewer line, they showed up within 30 min on a weekend and had it done within the same time. Highly recommended especially for Emergency service. read more

These guys are great. After trying to get a hold of a couple plumbers unsuccessfully these guys answered. My situation was urgent (no working toilets) and he understood and got to my house within an hour. He worked very quickly and professionally, quickly diagnosing the problem and finding a solution. I will always call on them for any plumbing needs in the future. read more

Brian and his son did a great job. They came out on Saturday morning. They were super friendly. I definitely will use them in the future for my plumbing needs. They worked really hard as I had a major back-up in my system. These guys are really good at there job and the prices are super reasonable. read more

I had an issue with a backup toilet and shower. I called Erwin & Sons and they were able to come within a couple hours. Fixed the problem. Great guys. EXCELLENT SERVICE!!! Will definitely use them for future services. read more

Honest, down to Earth guy and his sons. They do good work and charge a very fair price. No gimmicks or coupons. They repaired an underground pipe, took up the sidewalk, replaced with better pipe, and redid the sidewalk at my rental while I was out of town...for less than the big flashy plumbers would charge for just a water heater install....oh yeah, and they did it fast.. This is the classic "little guy" that Allan Jackson's song is about. Let's keep him around! read more

I used Erwin & Sons to replace a water heater. He quoted me a price but ends up I have to pay more because of some code upgrades. After that I ask Bryan to send me the invoice so I can pay. He said that I need to pay first before sending me the invoice (Odd, but I did). The drama started afterwards. After I sent in the check and he confirmed that he got it. I asked him to send me the invoice/receipt. He said he will. This was last January 2015. And afterwards I tried to contact him many times and finally in April he said he has already sent me one and will send another one if I didn't receive it. It never came. So I ask if he can fax me. He said yes, but that never came too. I don't know why, it seems something fishy here. Now it is May already, and I haven't received any paperwork from them. I do property management and I need receipts for owners. I don't think I will use them again. read more

Helped me out in a quick fix emergency but was not a priority to come back a fix the problem. Won't answer phone or texts. Not professional at all. Too busy for little jobs. read more

Who Says you can't find an honest plumber, esp. online... I called Erwin & Sons plumbing for a drain issue in our side yard. We explained that the drain was barely flowing and we were worried about it being clogged and with the possibility of a wet winter we wanted to be prepared. I am always a little worried about calling a random business about home repairs but with his yelp reviews I thought lets give this a shot. They could tell me I have to buy the moon and I wouldn't know the difference. My husband (whom is super reserved) hit it off with him right away. He explained how to keep the drain clear and did the initial clearing for free. He also threw in some materials just for the fun of it. How often in this day and age will you find someone not only honest enough but willing to basically just help out. He said it was as simple as attaching this piece to the hose and blowing the debri out but he could have charged us a fair amount and we would have still be happy with his service. We are definitely going to be keeping his number for any future plumbing needs. If you are looking for an Honest & Friendly plumber call Erwin and Sons Plumbing. read more

Great honest work! They worked in the rain and in the dark to get water out of my backyard during this past huge storm. I was impressed with their work ethic and commitment to work being completed thoroughly. He even called me to make sure it was going well during the next storm. Highly recommend them to anyone wanting a plumber. read more

Brian just came to my house and unclogged a sewer drain, quickly and efficiently. He showed me what tools to use and how to use them, then refused to take any money!! I would have had no problem paying the price he had quoted me to come out, because he's a nice guy who clearly knows his trade and did the job perfectly, but he went above and beyond. Based on other reviews and now firsthand experience, it is obvious that this man has character, a well earned reputation and puts doing the right thing over making a quick buck. I know who I'm calling whenever I need a plumber from now on!! read more

Great, efficient, timely, fair priced, honest work!!! Will definitely use for any other plumbing needs! They came out quickly and assisted us in get our water main fixed. They were honest and did not over charge like other companies. Both Erwin & his son were friendly and they ensured to clean up and place everything back in order before leaving. read more

Had fantastic service from Brian, he saved me over $400 and had great customer service. I will be using them again and referring all my friends and family to them. Thank you Brian!!! read more

Had major problem with my sink after moving into my new home. Since I wasn't familiar with the Modesto area I searched on Yelp for a good plumbing service and I am SO THANKFUL I came across Erwin & Sons. My sink overflowed caused huge puddles inside and outside my home. I called this number on Sunday morning gentleman who answered the phone was extremely professional and helpful. He knew exactly what the problem was after I described it said he would be at my home in the afternoon. The gentleman who worked on the plumbing, Brian, was amazing!! A very respectful man. He and his son fixed my sink (bad case!! really hard!) in no time and said if there was anything I ever needed just to give them a call. 5 stars for customer service 5 stars for being professional 5 stars for fixing my home read more

Brian's a great guy and a skilled plumber. He came out immediately to inspect my leak and worked with my schedule to make quick work of a tricky repair. He's the man for my future plumbing needs! read more

I am grateful for the plumbers in town. Many are small business people that take pride in what they do and openly care about what they do for people. Two I can recommend one is Erwin & Sons Plumbing 209-595-3528. read more

I called because we had a toilet that was clogged in our house. They were out here in about 30 minutes on a Friday night and it only took them about 10 minutes to fix it. They were very friendly and only charged $60. We will definitely use them for future services if needed. read more

Great honest work! They late into the night to repair a broken toilet flange. My friend and I tried to repair it ourselves but we were not sure what type of flange part to get. There were so many variations! I was impressed with their work ethic and commitment to work being completed thoroughly. He even trained me how to repair a toilet flange in case this happens again.I will highly recommend them to anyone in need of a plumber in the Modesto area. read more

Great Service! ... Brian was very polite and had great customer service. Each step of the repair to my main water line was shown to me and explain throughly as to what needed to be done to fix the leak. Repair cost was fair and reasonable and I would definely use this company again. I recommend Erwin & Sons Plumbing Services in Modesto @ 209 595-3528. read more

Just like Autumn G, I had a wonderful experience with Erwin & Sons. They came within two hours of my call (exactly when they said they would), charged exactly what they said it would cost, and gave me advise on how to help prevent a future root problem - plus they played with my big scary poodle while they were here. read more

These guys are awesome!!! Came out on a Saturday, and had to crawl under the house to fix a broken pipe and charged less than their quote! Good, honest, down to earth. Love them! read more

The best ever! The only plumbers I will ever use. Very honest, knowledgeable and professional. Excellent customer service. You can trust what they say! They truly care about their customers. read more

Mr. Erwin & Sons work as a tearm. I have called them several times with good results. He knows what he is doing. In one job, I was told I had a $6000+ sewer line replacement, but Mr. Erwin insisted the problem was misstated by the previous plumber...and he was right; his repair cost $1000!! Other minor services were done effectively. Mr. Erwin knows his trade and has a pleasing attitude. A rare find! read more

Called Erwin and Sons off a CL ad. He had a pleasant attitude, showed up ahead of schedule and took care of my drain with his minimal service call fee of $60.00. No add-ons, no upsells, he (and very polite son) took care of business. What else can you ask for? Old fashioned service with a smile. read more

Awesome guy! Very friendly and informative! Great price

Brian is so polite & helpful. He arrived quickly & fixed our plumbing problem with great effort & quality. We had several issues & he guaranteed his work. He even came back when our line was backed up (we have old plumbing) and didn't leave until the issue was fixed. What was even more impressive was the fact that he used some disinfected in my tub & toilet before he left. I can't say enough about how helpful & polite he was during his visit. I highly recommend Erwin & Sons Plumbing. read more

These guys were great, called them on a Sunday because my main line was backed up. They were out within two hours, and not only did they clear the line, they sent a camera down to determine the problem, and used a hydrojet to clear out excess build up. Unfortunately the main problem is roots where the line meets with the city line but Brian also gave me an at home solution to use once a month to keep those roots at bay instead of buying the costly root killer at Home Depot. Definitely went above and beyond when it comes to customer service. All the extras didn't cost me one cent over the price he gave me when I called. Will definitely call them in the future. read more

I called Brian at 7:30 on a Friday night. He called back within five minutes and offered to come over that night or the next morning to fix our broken water heater, letting me know the difference in cost. So that we didn't have to run to the gym to shower, we had Brian come over that night. He had the water heater fixed within ten minutes after the PG&E rep warned us we might need a new water heater. Brian earns highest marks from us, and will be the only one we call with any future plumbing issues. read more

although they did come to help us unclog our drains on a weekend day, which of course is a hard day to have a plumber come out and would normally charge a lot, I must say they didn't take advantage of us and charged us a fair price for coming out at a moments notice......BUT we did need to have a few more things done the following month. Which we called and made an appointment for them to come in the following morning and THEY NEVER SHOWED UP OR CALLED!!!! we called a numerous amount of times to figure out what was going on or if they were coming at all and all we got was their voice mail. That is extremely un professional and to be honest has left us in a bind to find a new and reliable plumber that's fair. read more

Awesome company and people!!! I can't say enough how good of a job they did on my older home. This house has had issues for a very long time and no other company was ever able to determine what exactly the issue was. After showing up 3 hours early with a small window before next appointment they spent several hours here determined to get the job done right. It involved way more then expected and after finding a cleanout buried under a concrete walkway (which I had no idea existed previously) they jack hammered the area out and ran the snake through and now I finally have no more plumbing problems. The cost remained minimal for what was involved in an expected quick and easy routine job. These guys are incredibly good at what they do and very determined not to let anything stand in there way of resolving any issue. I highly reccommend them and will never use a different plumbing company again. Thank you so much!!! read more

I guess you can't post a review without giving at least one star but I disagree! I called and set up an appointment for this afternoon so my sister could meet him at this new house she bought. He called her later and said he couldn't find the address and besides he had another job, and he'd "try" to get back with her tomorrow! The address is not difficult - it's been there over 40 years and Modesto is not that big a town! I wouldn't call this guy again if my life depended on it! I read the reviews here - even the complaints - and thought the large number of positives outweighed the negatives but now of course I'm thinking differently. By the way, when he answered the phone he didn't announce his business name - you'd think I was just a guy calling. I had a weird vibe because of that but thought, "Well, there's those good reviews." Yeah, well now there's another bad one and if he keeps doing business this way these bad reviews will continue to mount up! read more
