Thanks Tim for serving us since 2018! What a live saver Tim is and his technique is topnotch! Call him for your plumbing l/ electrical needs. If he's available to serve you, you will be in good hands, trust me! Our place was built in the 50s and the plumbing was really out dated. That said a lot of the pipes were old. On a Saturday the basement part just broke when we were working something around it. Water splashed everywhere. The only way to stop that was to shut off the main wove and that we couldn't use water anywhere else in the house either. It was around 5 pm on a Saturday evening. We called everywhere tried to have people come in give us quotes, and of course, most of them jack up the price to sky high. What was even more ridiculous was almost all of them doesn't even know what they were doing. I don't even know how to put it, but it was just my gut feeling that even if I were to pay them that price they were not going to be able to fix it. And I i was right-the thing that they sort of ran through with us what they will do to solve the issue was totally BS. Look back, they wouldn't even have the tools and parts ready. Now back to more details of how great Tim is. After calling and making appointments with many different vendors we could find and were offering service around that hours, for to Tim's TRZ business around 7 pm. He picked up the phone and arrived our place very quickly. To be honest, we were so desperate at that point that we would pay anything Now back to more details of how great Tim is. After calling and making appointments with many different vendors we could find and were offering service around that hours, for to Tim's TRZ business around 7 pm. He picked up the phone and arrived our place very quickly. To be honest, we were so desperate at that point that we would pay anything to get this plumbing issue fixed so we can go on for our weekend. When we told him what we were quoted on, he laughed and said those were crazy quotes and told us not to worry. That alone made me feel better, I didn't know what to expect yet at that point but I was willing to take the chance as he showed up and brought good vibe: he was well prepared that his tool box filled with different kinds of parts and in well organized fashion! He clearly knows what he's doing, with in no time he fixed our plumbing issue. He was so kind that there was one part he didn't have (as mentioned our place is old) he drove out to pick up the part just like that- not even ask for extra or anything. At the end, the bill was super reasonable- unlike other lame business- include some big names you are all familiar with. And that's included if a generous tips. How nice the world will be if more business/ people in general don't try to take advantage of people when they are in needs. Instead giving genuine support and good work. Thanks again Tim. You are our saving angle! read more

I've have never clogged a drain in my life and on a Saturday night at 9pm, I called every emergency plumbing company possible. All other agency's quoted me $350 and above including $150 surcharge just to look at the problem. I was very frustrated since I was strapped on cash. I called Tim at TRZ which gave me a honest quote over the phone of $250. He got to my residence in about 25 mins and fixed the problem in about an hour and half because it was clogged so bad! I never write reviews on yelp but this man not only gave me a honest quote, he did not charge me anything more, I only had $300 on me which I told him over the phone. I wish I was able to tip the man more because he deserved more than $300 for canceling his plans on a Saturday night. I recommend Tim to anyone that is having any type of plumbing issues, his honesty, professionalism and knowledge puts him above all. read more

I recently had a hybrid (heat pump) water heater installed in my home, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From start to finish, TRZ Plumbing was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly easy to work with. They took the time to explain how the system works, what to expect in terms of energy savings, and made sure everything was set up for optimal performance. The installation itself was clean and efficient, and they left the workspace spotless when the job was done. The new system is running perfectly--quiet, efficient, and already making a noticeable difference. I highly recommend TRZ Plumbing to anyone looking for quality plumbing work, especially if you're considering upgrading to a hybrid water heater. read more

Prompt procurement of equipment, high quality installation, great customer service. Installation unexpectedly required Tim and his guys to tear down and rebuild a wall, and make several other decisions to deliver the project. They were able to adapt on the go and deliver a successful heat pump installation. Very impressed! read more

Tim and his team are the best! We have two restaurants in SF and we use TRZ for both locations. They always take care of the issues quickly and for a price you can't find anywhere else. Tim has also gone out of his way to fix problems at our house no matter what time - day/night/weekend. Can't recommend them enough! read more

Finally Made appointment after several attempts. Communication was horrible and he was a no show. I Dont understand the great rating if this is how they do business read more

Ok, no one can't make this stuff up. Jim just answered our call on the day before Christmas Eve. We had a toilet clogged. He was straight to the point and made himself avaiable. In the meantime we were doing our home remedy- snaking the line-. Finally we got ti to work and did not use his services. Hoewever, he was outstanding in availability and curtesy. Thank you Jim, I hope your business is always blessed, Merry Christmas! read more

TRZ plumbing was excellent. I needed my water heater to be replaced, and Tim was able to come in on the same day and replace it while doing an *excellent* job. My old water heater was installed somewhat strangly and they moved/changed some of the pipes and fittings and provided a new stand. I am extremely satisfied with the service provided (and Tim was really friendly). I highly reccomend TRZ plumbing. read more

This guy is amazing. I called him at 9am and described our situation: water heater leaking. Very hard to get to behind the washer dryer. It's now noon and he just left after draining and carting off the old one and installing a new one. read more

Tim and his staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. They get the work done quickly and do a really great job. This is a late review as I've already used them several times in the past, clogged garbage disposal, pipe and toilet installation, and water heater replacement, they did it all and did a wonderful job. I've recommended them to other and will call on them again when I need them read more

We're so glad we chose to contact Tim when we noticed a leak from the outflow drain pipe from our kitchen and main bathroom. He came over, took a look at the situation, and explained why swapping out a segment of the pipe would be the right move beyond just clearing the pipe. He and his assistant started the work, went off for parts, and came back to finish off the work the same day. We couldn't be happier - Tim is friendly, professional, and a straight shooter. All at a very reasonable price. We're glad to have found a great plumber nearby. When time comes for a new water heater, we know who to call. Whole heartedly recommended. read more

Lifesaver! I leaving for my honeymoon in 2 days, then the Water Heater decides it's done its duty and dies. We had no hot water. I could not leave my housesitter with freezing water so I began the frantic search on the interwebs for a good plumber. Usually I would ask for family/friend's recommendations but I was searching after 10pm and I needed a plumber the next morning. Tim got back to me quickly, gave me a fair quote and arrived within the time frame that he said he would. He did not upcharge us for the quick response or because it was veteran's day. I was very appreciative of that. He completed the work, did a good job and was professional. Tim saved the day! Now my house has super hot water and I have a good plumber I can call in the future :-) read more

My house had a very old rusty water valve that got stuck in the closed position and we had no water in our house. My husband and I tried to replace the valve ourselves after watching many YouTube videos and purchasing materials from Home Depot, but ultimately was unsuccessful. We called Tim last minute and he came by soon after and replaced our valve in about 30mins. Now we wish we had called him earlier and saved ourselves some time, trouble, and headache!!! Thank you Tim! read more

Our water heater died on Friday at some point... we learned of it's passing on Saturday morning. An early morning weekend call to Tim and he was able to fit us into his schedule that same afternoon. Tim gave fast and competitive quotes to either fix or replace the unit. He explained the options in detail not only to me, but also to our landlord who lives remotely, and when she decided to replace the unit I assumed I would have to wait until Monday for the replacement work. I WAS WRONG! Tim took the time Saturday afternoon to buy a new unit, replace it, and remove the old unit!!! I had a hot shower before I went to meet up with friends for dinner :) Thanks Tim! read more

We added a new bathroom and Tim finished the job within the quoted amount of time as well as offered less costly suggestions to get the same result. His fees were honest and fair and he always showed up when he said he would. Last week my water heater stopped working and Tim showed up within a few hours and had it replaced quick! I really appreciate TRZ Plumbing, he is my go-to plumber read more

I can't say enough good things about Tim and why you should use TRZ Plumbing. I called him Saturday morning because of an issue I had with a water heater leaking and luckily he was available later that day to replace it. His pricing was fair and Yelp reviews were great so why not right? However, the best news I received was when he showed up and quickly determined the water heater that had an issue was labeled incorrect and it was actually my neighbors unit. (I'm a new homeowner in a 2 unit building) My neighbor still decided to go with Tim and he also helped me improve the water pressure in my kitchen faucet which had a minor issue. Tim is honest, friendly, professional and highly recommend TRZ Plumbing. read more

First off, as others have said, Tim is great and prices are reasonable. I had a shower valve break and you would think this wouldn't be that big of a deal (at least, if, like me, you know very little about plumbing), but no. It was a big deal. Get the torch out, the welder out, all of it. Huge production. The first plumber I called, 24/7 Rooter & Plumbing, gave me a ridiculous quote and the two guys they sent out were scratching their heads and literally looked scared of it while evaluating it (so, yeah, don't call them). Tim just dove in and got to work. Took, I think, about five hours over two days to get it resolved. He did a great job on it and it continues to work great (the work was done last year). The only negative was on the second day, he was 3-4 hours late because of an emergency job that came up. Not really a problem but the delay didn't get communicated as promptly as it could have. Otherwise, he was great to work with and did quality work. Will definitely hire him again. read more

Thank you TRZ Plumbing for everything you did to fix my kitchen sink. You're an asset to the community.

The reviews definitely reflect the business. Tim is an awesome guy who is friendly, easy to talk to, and straightforward. I had some pipes redone at my house to fit a new laundry machine. As a jack of all trades, he was able to help change out my old brass pipes as well as hook up a gas line for the dryer! Talk about piece of mind. Not only that, Tim was able to look at the sink that has been making strange noises on-the-fly, and fixed it in minutes. He goes above and beyond to make sure you're satisfied with the work. If something comes up in the future I will definitely call again. If you're worried about long procedures of getting quotes, or if you're nervous about talking to people that speak with jargon that makes you feel like an idiot, fret not- Tim will tell it to you in pain English, as-it-is, and maybe throw in a few jokes along the way. He's super easy to talk to. read more

So last night my hubby found water and rust leaking from the top of the water heater near the pipes. Given that hubby's unemployed and we're living on one income and I don't make that much money myself, we immediately panicked at the possibility of having our water heater replaced. We initially call Magic Plumbing, who immediately said we 95% likely would have to have our water heater and they wanted $1500... JUST for the water heater. We immediately got suspicious after I did some Googling!!! My comment was "NO WAY IN HELL we're paying $1500 JUST for the water heater!!! Not EVEN if labor was thrown in!!! That is NOT right!!!" I did a Yelp search and found TRZ Plumbing!!! After reading all the reviews, I decided to try Tim out and see if he's an honest guy or if he's gonna gouge the price up too. He came to our home within an hour (rare for a Saturday!) and my husband watched Tim fixed the top seals of the pipes to the water heater -- a very minor $100 repair job!!! Yes, EVENTUALLY we'll have to replace our water heater, but he gave his estimate and it was nowhere near the $1500 mark. Tim also said he's pretty sure the problem is with the seal of the pipes, BUT if this particular seal was not the problem and he had to replace the water heater, he would put our last repair cost towards the bill. When we asked his estimate for replacing the water heater and we told him what Magic Plumbing wanted to charge us, he confirmed our suspicions they were trying to gouge us on the repair cost. He also commented that we're pretty much up to current plumbing code on water heater and earthquakes, etc., so no EXTRA COST for "conforming to current plumbing code!!!", which was one of the estimate cost that Magic Plumbing defends their high repair cost!!! As my husband told him, "I think my wife and I just found our new favorite plumber!" BUH BYE, Magic Plumbing!!! :P read more

Our old water heater leaked al over our garage, needed a new one desperately! Called Tim at 2 PM, he said he could get it done that night! Arrived at 6.45 PM, he had new high quality water heater with him! He had it installed in 2 hours, real quality work! Also Renewed a few of my old fittings that were not up to code. His price was really fair for quality work! Tim is also a real nice guy and I enjoyed chatting to him! Next time I have Plumbing needs Tim will be my go to guy! Keep up the good work Tim!! read more

Awesome customer service. After having an awful beyond awful contractor do some seriously shoddy work, which included wet bar stub-outs, I hired TRZ to remove the stub-outs (several months after the contractor) and install angle stops (valves) in order to proceed with installing the wet bar. The next day, one angle stop was leaking. I called him and he showed up right away to fix it. A couple of weeks later I noticed that there was a watermark on the wall under where he'd worked. I opened up the wall and it was soaked. Mold was growing. It was a bad scene. I called him back and told him I needed this fixed immediately. He agreed to show up 45 minutes later. While I was waiting, I opened up more of the wall to expose the entire pipe that led to the angle stop. I then realized the leak wasn't from his work, but my shoddy contractor. When he showed up, he agreed and proceeded to cut the pipe and completely redo the contractor's work--properly this time. He insisted on NOT charging me for fixing the awful beyond awful contractor's mess. Can't ask for better service than that! read more

Tim was awesome. Came out for a replacement water heater issue, had the job done from start to finish in just a few hours, including purchasing and bringing a new unit and hauling away my old one. Kept all communication clear and concise and took care of all details without any detective. Perfect service! Thanks, Tim -Val S. read more

After calling almost a dozen plumbers who either did not return my call or were unavailable, Tim called me back right away after leaving him a voicemail. Tim was able to come out same day, pretty quickly after speaking with him on the phone. He arrived on time, was very patient and clear in explaining my problem, and thorough with all my questions. I did not actually get the work done with TRZ but Tim didn't make me uncomfortable or awkward. His expertise and professionalism was very appreciated especially dealing with something as nerve racking as plumbing issues. Thanks, Tim! read more

We were without hot water. Our seventeen year old water heater died one night. I called Tim and he was there bright early, thankfully, the next morning and put in a new water heater for us! A friend complained her had a leak in his house and needed help. I gave him Tim's number and he was so happy as Tim was to his house in one hour.. Tim is accommodating while many plumbers are not, Nice guy. read more

I was very lucky to have Tim recommended to me for plumbing work. I bought 3 Toto toilets online and needed them installed in my bathrooms. Tim came highly recommended from my neighbor who had numerous jobs completed by him. After my toilets arrived, I called up Tim and he was able to come out the next Monday and showed up early morning to install my toilets. He was very courteous and got to work right away. Tim and his team quickly had the old toilets removed and the new ones installed. It was great how efficiently they worked together and he cleaned up everything and took away the old toilets. Tim did a fantastic job. I also happen to have a gas leak somewhere in my line in the kitchen and Tim quickly found the problem and tightened up the fitting. I would definitely recommend using Tim in the future for any of my plumbing needs. The combination of buying my plumbing materials online and having Tim come out and install everything is perfect. read more

I've got to give Tim from TRZ Plumbing 5 stars for good work, being honest and flexible with making time in the evening and weekends to get things done. My brother-in-law had used TRZ before and suggested calling Tim to replace my garbage disposal. I know it wasn't a big job, but I didn't want to risk it and Tim quoted me at a decent price if I provided the disposal myself. After coming over one evening, Tim showed me that the pipes under my sink actually had been worn down as they were metal and the leak was not only coming from the garbage disposal, but the pipes themselves which had worn down. He didn't want to do half the job, so he ended up replacing the pipes under the sink. I know the job went way longer than he expected, but he did an outstanding job. Because the problem was a bit unexpected I knew it would cost more and was prepared for something terrible, but Tim was very fair in pricing. There was one small leak where old metal piping went into the rubber pipes he installed, so we set up another day for him to come by and he fixed it in minutes. As you can see from all the reviews, I'm not alone in praising Tim. If you need anything regarding plumbing, you should definitely call TRZ. read more

I am starting to become more and more dependant on yelp, and TRZ plumbing is a good example why. We needed to get a gas pipe redone for a new oven we purchased in a placed we just moved into, and Tim came out on a Sunday to do the job. He was on time, professional and cared about his work ( empathic to our "moving" plight). Being new to the area, I of course did not know who to hired for this...but using yelp helped. Tim's reviews are fantastic and with good reason. Highly recommended!!! read more

We've used Tim in the past and appreciated all the work he did, but sadly after two weeks of texting and no shows and no commitments. We were forced to go with another plumber. Too bad. read more

Though this review is based solely on communication between the technician and myself and not on the work conducted (husband was able to fix the issue!), I cannot not rave enough about the promptness Tim from TRZ had on the email communication. From my end, I was a bit wishy-washy about hearing back from other companies. Tim was patient and still informed me of the quote and availability he had in coming out for the job. If in the future, our water heater might encounter any issues, I will absolutely keep TRZ in mind. read more

Tim really helped us out when our toilet got blocked and was overflowing. He came in the evening, long past business hours, unclogged the toilet for us, charging us an incredibly reasonable amount of money. He was courteous and swift in fixing the issue. I would highly recommend him! I much prefer his neighborly business model than the more bureaucratic big businesses. If I could give him a hundred stars I would :) He really helped us out when we needed it as we have only one toilet! read more

Tim worked after hours and through the weekend to get things done for us before we moved in. He also kept a coats down and actually advised us on items we didn't need to do that we thought we did to save us money. Class A guy who does top quality work. read more

Very professional service. He came out on a Sunday for some emergency work and charged a fair price. He explained exactly what he was doing and made sure we understood the various parts of our plumbing system. The job itself was very professional. I could tell he has done these repairs hundreds if not thousands of times. read more

I highly recommend Tim. We have used him for several issues at our home. Beginning with correcting a terrible dishwasher installation by Home Depot, and other more involved plumbing situations. He is a pro, knows his business, and explains everything. Great work and a pleasant guy! read more

I had a leak from my water heater and we were quick to call for estimates, Tim was the only one with a quick reply with an estimate over the phone after pictures were sent with the problem. He also came out first thing early morning and changed out my water heater with new fittings, pipes, easy shut-off gas valve (since the previous was unreachable), etc.. VERY courteous and knowledgeable!!! Will DEFINITELY call Tim for future needs!!! read more

Tim is simply the best! He is so quick to come out and help and does a fantastic job! Great prices, he fixed my water heater so fast! I can always count on him! read more

Did not get to hire Tim and his team due to schedule issue. However we communicated with him back and forth and would certainly have engaged his service if only our water heater leaks did not deteriorated so quickly/ coincide with his trip out of city. I would say he offered the best price, prompt in reply and certainly straightforward in his pricing. Unlike many others that I spoke to and communicate via yelp message. I would certainly hire him and his team for future issue- felt like I could trust him to do a great job and not at inflated cost. read more

Tim was very quick to answer his phone and very quick to come to my house's rescue. It literally was midnight and still had a smile on his face. If it were me, I would NOT have the same expression. Very reasonably priced and gave me the estimate before he started. A+ would recommend to other home owners. read more

Tim made good on the prior issue and did a fine job for me!

Tim is a referral from a friend - he was busy, but provided a same day commitment knowing the urgency of no hot water. He arrived late in the evening to keep his commitment. I really appreciate his awesome customer service. The water heater is only 7 years old, sold to me by another plumber in town who was overpriced and installed a sub-standard unit, then repaired twice. Tim was able to fix it so I can perhaps buy some more time before installing a new one. I appreciate his honesty and will definitely go to him when I need to replace this current heater. read more
