    KAMAINA HANDYMAN IS STILL EXCELLENT !!! I hired Kamaina again for several repairs and they were done perfectly. This time around the repair person was Kahae and he was friendly and very proficient. I highly recommend this company to anyone that needs a worry-free experience starting from scheduling, estimating and work.

    Last night the pipe under my kitchen faucet burst and water started gushing out at a phenomenal…read morerate. I couldn't even figure out how to stop the water from coming out and within minutes water was pouring down the stairs and leaking into the floors below the kitchen. After calling everyone I could think of, including the board of water supply, with no one providing any help, I typed in "plumbers" into Yelp and started cold calling down the list. First Class Plumbing was the third company listed but the first one that seemed to care. I was warned that I was calling after hours so I'd have an emergency fee if I wanted service now... I joked "fine - this is an emergency" and was told I'd get a call back as soon as they could get ahold of one of their plumbers. I went back to trying to heave buckets of water into a nearby sink and received a call back 15 minutes later. The plumber was so calm, and after hearing that I was still dealing with gushing water, explained to me how to stop the water flow. He asked me to send him pictures of the burst pipe and the faucet and got off the phone to price everything out including replacing the pipes and faucet. After doing all that work he told me what the cost would be and then said it was no worries if given the price I didn't want to continue on - or at least wait until it wasn't an emergency (an extra $150 charge). I said I definitely wanted the service and he came right out and fixed the burst pipe. I would already have been raving about this place for their competent service if it had been a normal scheduled appointment. But the fact that this company and the plumber were there for me when no one else was, and went above and beyond walk me through how to stop the problems and extremely quickly look into part costs for me before I ever even agreed to the service has made me a loyal customer forever!

    I reached out to several plumbing companies for quotes, and First Class Plumbing was priced right…read morefrom the start. I spoke with Ana and explained my plumbing issue, then emailed her a photo of the problem area. She quickly identified that it involved replacing my PRV, isolation valve, and irrigation valve. They provided a clear quote over the phone, scheduled the appointment within a few days, and completed the job seamlessly. Whitley arrived on time, was professional, courteous, and a pleasure to talk to. It was fun chatting football with him -- he comes from an impressive football family! His dad, Vili, was the University of Hawai'i football team's official Warrior mascot during the Colt Brennan era. Highly recommend this company for their fair pricing, excellent communication, and top-notch workmanship.

He even put on shoe coverings before entering my home. He listened to me explain what had been happening and went straight to work. Albert found the problem and proceeded to work his magic. I watched from the bathroom doorway, and he explained his procedures. He had to snake the drain too. But he showed me why and did not proceed until he had quoted me the cost and got my ok. No surprises with this man. He had the drain snaked, wax ring replaced, and the bolts for the toilet replaced and tight. The toilet no longer feels like you're on a carnival ride. He made sure to check everything to make sure the job was done. He was efficient, quick, and cleaned up after himself. He didn't wear a cape but he was a super hero and saved my day. Of course I have to give big props to Keiko. She is outstanding at her job and such a joy to talk to. She's so friendly and cheery. Not like so many other people who answer their business phone with such grumpiness...as if you woke them up from a nap. Her efficiency and professionalism was appreciated.

    I initially reached out because I needed my unit's main water shut-off valve and my washer shut-off…read morevalve replaced. Replacing my water heater wasn't even part of the plan. But after Jaren took a careful look and walked me through what he was seeing, I decided to move forward with it--and I'm genuinely glad I did. What stood out right away was how professional, thorough, and patient Jaren was from start to finish. Like many of the Yelp reviews say, he doesn't rush, he doesn't cut corners, and he doesn't talk down to you. He took the time to answer my questions in a way I could fully understand--even as someone who knows almost nothing about plumbing. That kind of clear communication matters, because it turns a stressful situation into something manageable. And here's the part that really earned my respect: he didn't oversell. When it came to the water heater, he didn't just point to the age and say, "Replace it." He explained why it mattered, what could happen if I waited, and how upgrading certain older plastic/PVC materials to brass could save me money and headaches down the line. It wasn't pressure--it was education. It felt honest, practical, and grounded in what was best for my home. He was also incredibly flexible. On the same day he worked in my unit, the building complex was dealing with additional plumbing repairs by another company, and it created delays and coordination challenges. Still, he stayed calm and professional. He was at my place from about 8:00 AM to 6:30 PM, and while I felt bad that it was such a long day, it reassured me even more--because it was clear he wasn't rushing. He was making sure it was done right. The results speak for themselves. His work is clean, organized, and flawless, and the difference is obvious when I compare my updated plumbing setup to other units I looked at before he worked on mine. His attention to detail is on another level. I also want to give a big shout-out to Arley for her help when I first reached out to JGR Plumbing. She kept me updated, provided clear estimates, and communicated Jaren's arrival time for the initial unit check. That kind of responsiveness makes a big difference when you're trying to coordinate repairs. Finally, I have to mention the pricing: for the amount of work completed and the level of quality and professionalism Jaren delivered, the cost was very reasonable and fairly priced for this type of work. If you want a plumber who shows up with skill, integrity, and pride in their work--someone who treats your home the way they'd want theirs treated--I strongly recommend JGR Plumbing.

    JGR Plumbing did an excellent job capping off the water line on my existing water softener system,…read moreincluding sealing the drain and testing everything thoroughly for leaks. The work was done cleanly and correctly, which gave me immediate peace of mind. I'll admit I was a little nervous about the cost at first, but it was absolutely worth it for the quality of work and the reassurance that everything was handled properly. He was prompt, professional, and very organized throughout the entire process. I also appreciated that he took the time to spot-check my water heater and share helpful maintenance insight without any pressure. I've added JGR Plumbing to my go-to list and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, honest plumbing work.
