After cutting out that area of dry wall and noted the problem, I got a couple of quotes. Friendly Fire Systems is very reliable. The boss Benito responds to text very quickly and answered all questions professionally. Scheduling was easy and uneventful. The technician, Rafael, arrived on time. He did the whole job by himself. The access box was too small and Benito was able to help him to locate a bigger one quickly and Rafael went to get it. They replaced the pipes with CPVC plastic pipes. They also replaced the valve and water pressure gauge. Rafael did everything in 1 day. The other impressive and important quality I like this company is the post-repair follow-up service. The new water pressure gauge connection was seeping out water with drops of water slowly. I texted Benito right away and he was able to have another technician, Miguel, to come to my house that same evening and it was Friday. Miguel arrived on time that evening and tightened the connection up. The slow leak persisted and noted the next day. I texted Benito regarding that the next day, Saturday. He again responded to the text immediately and offered to have Miguel to come to my house Monday early morning but afternoon worked better for me and he scheduled that afternoon for me. Miguel replaced the water pressure gauge and the metal connector as there's manufacturing defects causing the super slow leak at the connection. Afterwards, no more leak. Thank you Friendly Fire Systems and the boss Benito for being so reliable for the initial work AND more importantly, the follow-up care. Not that many companies nowadays are so reliable on follow-up customer service/care after they get the money for the initial service. Keep up the good work!!!

For my residential remodeling project, I needed to update my 15-year-old fire sprinkler system and…read moreget a fire permit. I found Friendly Fire via Yelp's "Request a Quote". After talking to several vendors, I found Benito experienced, easy to work with, and reasonably priced. He knew the permit process very well. Throughout the process, he suggested ways for me to save money. His technician had 30 years of experience and was able to convince the city staff to make the process shorter. I highly recommend the team to anyone who needs a fire permit.

Some time ago, the cover plate of the fire sprinkler on the ceiling of my second floor was knocked…read moreloose and fell off. This happened because my son fell on the third floor and accidentally hit the spot where the second-floor fire sprinkler was located. I knew nothing about this kind of thing and was really worried that water would start spraying out immediately! I quickly reached out on Yelp to several licensed fire protection service providers, hoping someone could help reinstall it as soon as possible. Leon from Central Fire Protection & Services was the fastest to respond--within ten minutes! I asked Leon if he could come quickly to help me replace and install it because I had to go out the next day. Leon asked me to send him photos and a short video. After reviewing them, he reassured me that there was no need to worry, that it wasn't a big problem, and told me to just contact him again after I got home. When we returned from our trip, I contacted Leon right away. Leon patiently and thoroughly guided me online on how to choose the correct new cover plate, how to purchase it, and explained that once I received the parts, I could actually install it myself. Even after receiving the new part, I still insisted on having Leon come install it, since I'm not a professional. But Leon kindly and carefully walked me through the installation step by step. Finally, with Leon's help, I successfully installed the new cover plate! I was so happy--not just because Leon provided all this guidance for free and never tried to take advantage of me, but also because through Leon, I learned something new myself. Now, with immense gratitude, I'm writing this review to give Leon the highest praise for his professionalism, honesty, dedication, and his willingness to go above and beyond. I recommend Leon to all my friends. I myself work in professional consulting, and Leon's values completely align with mine: not putting profit first, but putting truly helping others first! It's because of people like Leon that our world becomes a better place. (Oh, and even when I insisted that Leon give me a quote earlier, the service price he offered was extremely reasonable.) Thank you, Leon!

The sprinkler sub that I am using has got things all turned around, inside out.

Rich sprinklered the house directly adjacent to me, Out of exasperation/desperation with the sprinkler sub I have, I called Rich to see if he might have an idea what could be going wrong.

Please note, Rich went out of his way to help to share his expertise and knowledge, and I am not his client.

He QUICKLY said that they could absolutely do the job for $2,500! I told Beto I was concerned that he was just quoting my deductible, and he said that he understood and he could do the job for $2,000. but he had to call in a smaller employee in case they had to go into crawl space and dig (the crawl space is very tight). I asked him what if leak was against the wall and no digging was needed, he assured me price would be adjusted accordingly. again, my fault for not getting this in writing. He attempted to get to leak from garage and was unable to, so had to cut into my family room floor and wall. As I guessed leak was against the wall and was repaired. No one needed to go under house. Beto called two other workers (according to him because they had a small stature in case crawling was needed). I never saw all three working, two basically hung out. At the end I was presented with the $2,000 bill, I asked about the adjustment since no digging was needed, Beto told me his boss said no. but he would be nice and deduct $100. I paid my bill and called the owner with my concerns-he said that a quote should never be given before the plumber could see the actual problem and he would talk to Beto and call me back. That was last week, no call back. I waited to write this review to see if the owner would make things right, or at least explain the charges. So beware of this company-or at least Beto and his quotes, don't make my mistake and agree under stress and pressure! I had an active hot water leak under my house and I should have known better, but I didn't and they took advantage.
