I spent years working for my father in law, a sole proprietor plumber. He's retired and I'm not available to clear a clogged kitchen drain for my 90s year old parents in TR. So I use Yelp a lot (like 500+ reviews a lot) but always for restaurants. I tried finding a plumber as I wanted reliable, local and small business with great reviews and many star ratings. I also wanted honest and trustworthy as I was asking someone to go into my elderly parents house to do a home repair that I would normally complete for them. Guilt! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The Yelp search distribution was a great service and Proficient responded quickly and gained my confidence with our phone call.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My parents and their caregiver were comfortable with the employee and the cost was reasonable and met my expectations. Proficient Plumbing is now in my phone contacts for any future needs. read more

Wonderful experience! Called as first time customer with frozen pipes. They came out same day and the tech was professional courteous and helpful. Detail oriented and he explained everything he found and was doing. Highly recommend. read more

Great work and attention to detail! This id the place to go for your plumbing needs! They replaced my tub for a reasonable cost and the staff is friendly and help with any questions. Update 2 months later: they arrived 15 minutes early to replace a control switch on my gas heater (very old unit) and completed work under 2 hours and only charged $575 for repair. Compared to other quotes we got this was the lowest. Extremely reliable company and will continue using them read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]They arrived on time, texting us to let us know when they were nearby[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] , and even though we couldn't get the pipes looked at until the tile guy came, they didn't charge us anything and that to me says a lot about their honesty and character! I will definitely be calling them again! read more

Fast, reasonable, great techs! Especially John! Will not go anywhere else for plumbing needs!

Very good technician he came on time and was professional but repair was over priced.

Been thru a lot of plumbers over the years. These guys are the best. Came on time. Checked the issues. Honest assessment. My go to from now on read more

They were awesome. They were not money grabbers. Even suggesting we wait until Monday for service if we could so wouldn't incur an emergency service fee. Arrived on time Monday, did a swift efficient job with the appropriate equipment and even cleaned up any mess that was made. Undoubtedly, we'll call them the next time there's a need. You should too. read more

We had a leaky whirlpool bathtub for a number of months. It turned out not to be a major issue, but the leak was identified and fixed correctly. More importantly, for a very reasonable price. Highly recommend. read more

The pipes under my kitchen sink broke. I had water everywhere. I also had a wake to go to. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I called Proficient Plumbing. They came out within an hour.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It was fixed in an hour and a half. They were courteous, and very reasonable. I am definitely calling them to have my dishwasher replaced. read more

I want to thank Hilary, Shannon & Kyle for their friendliness, professionalism and support. Kyle was exceptionally helpful and honest. Thank you. Highly recommend. Regards Mr. C read more

First they came over to assess the job. Told us we needed a new toilet and told us to call them back when we get one. I ordered the toilet, they came back within a few days and replaced the broken toilet. The repairman was very nice, knew what he was doing, charged us a fair price and was done quickly! He was very nice! I would use this company again!! read more

I had a minor problem with a slow drain in the tub. Thirty years of hair and conditioner took its toll. I saw all the good reviews plus I used Proficient years ago to good end before I was Yelping. I called them and they got back to me the same day. They stopped by the next day to give me an estimate and in two days they had the problem resolved. It took two plumbers about 1.5 hours to do it. Prices seemed a bit high but quick service and a good resolution won out. I would recommend them again. read more

We manage numerous condominiums in Monmouth & Ocean Counties and retained Proficient Plumbing to handle a condominium project in Ortley Beach that needed to have the gas lines replaced for all 10 units in the complex. Not an easy task. Our office and the Board of Directors found Paul, and the entire staff of Proficient Plumbing, to be professional, accommodating and competitively priced. It is not easy working with condominiums, especially having to deal with many owners at one site. They handled this project exceptionally well, which took a lot of pressure off our staff. We will definitely continue to use and recommend Proficient Plumbing. John Roberts read more

Proficient Plumbing contacted us RAPIDLY from our request on Yelp. Within minutes we had an appointment for the next day. The office was super nice, and Jose and Ty (plumbers) arrived and quickly diagnosed and repaired a leaking pipe inside the ceiling. They were thorough, clean, proficient (!!!) and their pricing was more than fair! And this was for emergency service as well! I can EASILY rate them as a 5-Star service provider and absolutely would recommend Proficient Plumbing & Heating to anyone requiring their services! (Gary & Dawn, Lakehurst, date of service 3/5/24) read more

(1) Replaced nonfunctional single-lever kitchen sink faucet with customer-supplied unit; (2) replaced under-sink shutoff valves for above; (3) replaced in-wall valve stems and seats for a shower stall with no tile damage. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Scott kept two appointments on time.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] He was resourceful responding to challenges related to old plumbing. Project seemed pricey but high-quality work was done quickly and within the original estimate (no surprises). Would use them again. read more

I feel Lucky I called Proficient. They came out quickly and Keith was great, friendly, knowledgable, efficient (proficient? L O L), neat and everything you'd want in a plumber. He identified the problem quickly and fixed it just as quickly. Would love to give Keith and Proficient 10 stars. read more

We could not have asked for more professional plumbers. Explained everything before beginning the project. Gave us an exact quote before making necessary repairs. They were quick, and it was as though they never came (cleaned up after they were finished). Very respectful! Thank you. read more

Technician was very polite and listened to our concerns, but did not really have a solution to our problem. No charge for coming to our home since they did not fix anything. Our problem is low water pressure throughout the house but mostly in the kitchen. Should I be faced with another plumbing concern I would certainly call them again based on friendliness and quick response to my previous call. read more

Had to have all units gas supply lines replaced in crawl space of condominium building where I own a unit. Plumber advised that the gas shut valves for the gas appliances in my unit were not up to standard and stated they must be replaced at a cost of between two and three hundred each. I went to the worksite to speak with the plumber and asked for the ordinance that the plumber was referring to in order to state that the gas valves on my gas appliances were not up to standard. No gas appliances were being changed or touched that would require shutting of the existing gas valves in my unit. When I requested the ordinance the onsite plumber called the owner and the story suddenly changed to "we recommend that the existing gas valves be replaced". I told the onsite plumber that if no ordinance can be produced that would require the replacement of my gas valves do not do anything in my unit. Subsequently, the plumber billed my unit 125.00 for tightening packing nuts on 3 of the existing gas valves because he stated they were leaking. They were not leaking. How do I know this? Prior to the job in crawl space commencing I had the occasion to replace the washer and gas dryer in my unit. When I was finished I used my electronic gas detector to check the valve and its connections to the dryer, no leaks. I then proceeded to check the other gas valves and their connections to my gas appliances, also no leaks. To tighten a packing nut takes on the existing gas valves would take less than a minute each. Pretty hefty charge (125.00) for tightening packing nuts when the existing valves were fully functional and did not leak. In closing you cannot believe what this company tells you as truth. Would never use this company. read more

By far, the best plumbing service in the area, and the only ones I'll call. As others have said, "Proficient" is a very apt name, both in terms of how quick they respond, and the quality of the work performed. Each time I've called (so far, mostly for fairly standard service calls) I've been quoted a very reasonable price, given prompt service, and the folks who work here are super friendly. Excellent communication as well! Really, no complaints at all. If you need a plumbing service, look no further - Proficient is the best around. read more

We had a slow leaking kitchen faucet and it became a steady drip. I called Proficient plumbing around 11am yesterday and I had a plumber at my door by 3pm. I tried to turn off the water using the valves under the kitchen sink, but they were 25+ years old, so we got those replaced first. They brought in all the tools and a battery charged wet vacuum. Reasonable price. Tomorrow we'll get the faucet replaced, after we buy a generic faucet at like Lowes tonight. read more

I just bought a house and this was my first experience with a plumber. It was painless! They are super organized and keep you updated on arrival times. They explained everything they were going to do and were able to fix my issue. I will use them every time I need a plumber. read more

For the second time this year, Proficient Plumbing has done a superlative job for me. Kyle and James, in record time and for a very reasonable price, replaced a valve for the ice maker, replaced the shut off valve for the toilet, and replaced the garden hose faucet for me. This may sound like 3 little things but they've been on my list of "things that should get my attention before it's a HUGE problem". The price came in lower than the estimate which was not bad in the first place. But best of all, I was impressed by the quality of the work, the professionalism of the team including the office staff, and the reliability of the company. From now on, Proficient will be my plumbers every time. read more

I have to admit that I haven't officially used them yet..but the process via Yelp and Proficient plumbing customer service has been outstanding. Kristen replied right away and was very informative and easy to speak with and set up a date for an estimate. The plumber (Paul) who arrived a few days later was very professional, respectful and knowledgeable. I'm still weighing my options as far as the plumbing job I want done, but when I do it's certainly gonna be thru Proficient Plumbing and Heating. read more

PP sent his technicians to replace/install undermount kitchen sink; also replaced portion of cast iron pipe that was old/coroded causing backup from bathroom into kitchen sink. Discussed pitch of drainage btwn. bathroom & kitchen; was told the old cast iron pipe was causing backup from bathroom into kitchen sink. Never corrected pitch of pipes so all water flow was evenly draining out. While water did drain, when recently replacing bathroom vanity, the new contractor handling vanity hookup advised pitch of pipes btwn bathroom/kitchen was all wrong & sink drain installation by PP was crooked which we did notice. As such, had to spend over $400 additional to fix & re-do the kitchen drainage done by PP & correct the pipe pitch. It's now obvious that PP failed in this regard and we had to pay the price to fix it. Unfortunately, can't recommend & even complained about travel distance to our job! read more

I e-mailed Proficient Plumbing on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving and they called me back on Thanksgiving to assess the problem. Who does that? Because it was not an emergency, I scheduled an appt for the following Tuesday. On Tuesday morning I received both e-mails and texts confirming my man was on his way. He showed up on time and after assessing the problem he fixed it to my satisfaction. Actually left under the sink cleaner than when he got there lol. What more could you ask for? I could not be more pleased with their professionalism and would definitely not hesitate to use them again. read more

Reliable and on time the times I have used them.I feel the price was fair and the service good.The plumber was the same fellow who has been here before.Cordial and knows his job. read more

Had two issues with leaking pipes under the kitchen sink. Plumber came out, provided a Quote, and explained the issue and repair. Was very happy with the end result. Would definitely use this service again and recommend them as well read more

Excellent plumbers to call when you have issues! They come on time and don't leave until they fix the problem.

We needed to have an outdoor faucet replaced. We received a call within two hours of the inquiry. An appointment was made for two days from then as we told them it was not an emergency. The plumber showed up on time. He was friendly, respectful and knowledgeable. The job was completed that day. Pricing was very competitive. We will definitely be contacting them for any future plumbing needs. read more

I highly recommend Proficient Plumbing! Paul the owner is a super nice guy. He's very honest and prices are good. He's reliable and does superb work. He did work for me a few years ago, and more today. The only plumber I'll call! read more

Proficient is the appropriate name for this plumbing company! I have used this company 2 times for myself and both times my initial call was returned promptly, was put on schedule promptly and given the most reasonable cost each time. Proficient showed up each time as scheduled with a phone call to say they were on the way. The work performed was impressive and had no problems afterwards. You can't get better than this and Proficient is now my go to plumber. (Other plumbers didn't even return my call or gave me an outrageous price I guess as a way to say they didn't want the job!) Note: I recommended Proficient Plumbing to 3 other people looking for a reliable plumber and I am happy to say all 3 have relayed that they too were very happy with this company and couldn't thank me enough!?! In return I would like to say "THANK YOU" Proficient Plumbing! You help people more than you know! read more

Had a scheduled appointment with this company. They didnt show up. Called me 60 minutes or so late and said they would be here in 15 minutes...35 minutes later and no plumber. Proficient?...I think not. I cant recommend this business. read more

This is the first review I've ever left for someone that I haven't even worked with !!! Here's why.... I had just had my kitchen redone and ran the dishwasher. When I opened it there was standing water in the bottom that wouldn't drain. After trying my contractor several times over several days with no answer and having a houseful of people coming this weekend I started to panic and used yelp to find a professional to come out. Proficient called ASAP as he was IN THE DOCTORS OFFICE and asked if he could call me back. He called back as soon as he was finished! Not wanting to waste my money he asked if I had a disposal and suggested it may be due to the contractor neglecting to pop out the hole for the drain. He was willing to come out and tried to work me into his schedule. My contractor (who unbeknownst to me was in the hospital :( ) ended up calling today... the Day proficient was to come ... and he sent someone out to check. When I told them what proficient told me... they checked it and .... bingo... the hole was never popped out. I contacted Proficient and they were relieved that the problem had been solved. Genuinely relieved. I'm saving them in my phone and would recommend them to anyone!! Thank you read more
