Water Heater Installation/Repair near San Pablo

“After getting some pretty serious sticker shock from another well-known Bay Area plumbing company, I started asking around and several neighbors recommended The Plumbing Two. Funny enough, they had called them after getting the same sticker shock from the other company.

I reached out and they were able to come by that same evening, which was especially impressive since it was a Friday night. They took the time to look everything over, explain what needed to be done, and walk me through different options. I never felt pressured. The other company’s approach felt more like, “Here’s the quote, take it or leave it.” The Plumbing Two actually took the time to explain things and help me understand where I could save money.

One thing that surprised me was how much the cost of materials has gone up in just the last couple of years. It’s not cheap, but at least I felt like I was getting honest information and fair advice.

The job was finished sooner than expected, and everyone on the crew was great to work with. They were professional, respectful, and always willing to answer questions.

One thing that really stood out to me was watching the owner work alongside his sons. You could tell he was teaching them the trade while also encouraging them to pursue their education. As a customer, it was nice to see that kind of family business atmosphere and work ethic.

Hopefully I won’t need a plumber again anytime soon, but if I do, these are the people I’ll call. I’d definitely recommend The Plumbing Two to anyone looking for honest, professional plumbing work.“

“Steve unclogged our drain in minutes. His price was reasonable. He answered all questions, and he was easy to work with. I really can't recommend him enough. East Bay Plumbing is my plumber from now on. They are the best“

“Local Plumbing, in particular NOAH LANGDON, were totally amazing! I needed explanation of and help with an insurance requirement and Noah was terrific in helping me to understand the issue and the services needed to comply with the requirements. He went above and beyond, coming back to install and train me on the use of the new device.

I highly recommend Local Plumbing and will absolutely use them again if needed. You cannot go wrong if Noah shows up!!“

“I want to thank the Avalon technicians for installing a two way sewer clean-out. They overcame difficulties such as a camera blocking item in the line and an unexpected Y in the line. Both technicians were knowledgeable and friendly.“

“Another good experience with Albert Nahman. (Called them to track down the source of a leak in my upstairs shower) The leak diagnostic was expensive but ended up saving thousands since it revealed the pipes and valves were not leaking. Turns out my leak is likely related to grout damage from recent earthquakes.

If you want an honest plumbing company, who shows up on time, explains options to repair your problems, and cleans up after the do work. This is the company for you.“

“Placed a call on Tuesday and got a tech out Wednesday morning. He examined my leaking faucet, offered me a few options that he carried in the truck, and then got to work. He did a great job of marking off the sink and ensuring alignment of the new faucet. Installed the feed lines and everything was completed in about an hour.
He was very pressional and friendly, wore booties inside the house and cleaned up at the end of the work.
I appreciate the ease of process and good work.“

“Great job. Arriv d within window of time. To the point. Very nice. Kruse Plumbing great as always.“

“My water bill was extremely high this month and I had no idea why. I called pg&e and they said I had a water leak somewhere in my house. After calling around I decided on USA leak detector because they were able to get me an appointment the same day. They were able to pin point exactly where I had a leak. Steve was able to come out and fix my problem in 20 minutes which end up saving me a lot of money. He was extremely knowledgeable and didnt mind providing insight. I highly suggest them for fast and efficient work I’ll be calling USA leak detector for all my plumbing needs!“

“I’ve found a new plumber for residential AND commercial needs. Jose and his crew were fast, respectful of their surroundings, neat, prompt and their final work looked professional and polished!“

“Eric and Howard were professional and hard working in every way, handling unexpected problems with skill and a great attitude, and explaining everything to me so I totally understood the sump pump installation. I highly recommend Cruz & Co.“

“One of the few that offers emergency service on the weekend - pricey but well worth it after a major flood from a burst supply line. One of the co-owners came within a few hours and did a follow up on the next business day.“

“Professional, on time, clear in their assessment and delivered services promptly. Highly recommended.“

“I had high hopes with Cooper & Hawkins given their long history, but my experience was frustrating. While they offer HVAC and refrigeration services, their communication was poor and scheduling felt disorganized. I waited longer than promised for a technician, and when they finally arrived it seemed like they weren’t fully prepared to diagnose the issue. Prices also felt high compared to the actual work done. Some staff were polite, but overall I left feeling under‑informed and let down by the process. It didn’t match the level of professionalism I expected from a longtime contractor.“

“I've used PHP for a couple years now to service an existing boiler that was having issues. That boiler recently came to the end of its life, and I had PHP come out to replace it. They did a great job, initially responding to a Saturday call on the same day. I've been working with Tim who is nice, professional, communicates well, and does a great job. I will continue using this company for any future boiler or radiant needs.“

“Reid Heating provides excellent and responsive service at a fair price. They went out of their way to quickly obtain the necessary parts to repair our radiant heating system so that we didn't have to endure a cold home any longer than necessary during the winter. Everyone from their office staff to the repair technician were very helpful and knowledgeable. They even tried to first walked us through an attempted self-diagnosis (by phone) of the problem which could have resolved the situation without the need for someone to come out to our house. You can't go wrong with Reid Heating and Energy!Service: Heating system repair“

“If I could give 10 stars, I would!

Mauro is the best plumber I have worked with - honest, excellent quality, prompt, and thorough!

Services included:
- new water heater
- adding water line into garage
- sump pump clogged
- sump pump not working

The last time he helped me out: he saved me $1600!

My tenants called a plumber who said it would cost $800-$1600 -- $800 for labor and $800 to replace the sump pump motor potentially.

I immediately called Mauro who came within 2 hours of my calling. He fixed the issue (small electrical cable was moved) and didn't charge me at all! (I offered to pay for his time at the very least -- he said no need!).

SO, if you want a plumber who 1) is technically excellent; and 2) is honest; and 3) charges fair prices, CALL MAURO's PLUMBING!

One more thing: Amy, his scheduling staff, is also very prompt and responsive to boot.

Great service overall!“

“Great service, in all ways. Installed a new kitchen sink and faucet, on time, and at a lower cost than the original quote.“

“Every time I've called Phillips Plumbing that have helped me, always right, always competitively priced, and reliable. I couldn't live without them.“

“Today was the second time we have had EB Plumbing. Eli goes the extra mile and knows his business. We highly recommend him!“
