Reviews

What customers say

Several reviewers praise prompt or punctual arrivals, clear explanations and efficient repairs. One customer says Esteban resolved in a few hours an issue that had resisted attempts with other plumbers over the prior couple of years; another says an estimate was cut by more than half after asking for another estimate, and that a slow response to an online booking delayed the repair by a day.

Working with Esteban was a great experience! I had a last-minute, very time-sensitive plumbing emergency, and they were able to arrive within 40 minutes of my call and fully resolve the issue. I had been trying to get this fixed with other plumbers over the past couple of years, and Esteban was able to sort it out in just a few hours. Extremely knowledgeable, efficient, and provided excellent service. Highly recommended.

I recently had an excellent experience with this plumbing service and would highly recommend them. The plumber arrived on time and conducted himself with complete professionalism throughout the appointment. He was clearly knowledgeable about the work that needed to be done and explained everything thoroughly. What impressed me most was his efficiency and independence—he worked quickly and skillfully without needing constant supervision or guidance. Upon completing the job, he took the time to circle back with me to ensure the service met my expectations and addressed my needs completely. The payment process was seamless. He handled the transaction professionally and promptly sent my receipt via email. Before leaving, he asked if there was anything else I needed, demonstrating genuine customer care. An unexpected but reassuring touch was that he remained parked in his van outside for an additional 15-20 minutes, likely handling paperwork or contacting other customers. This gave us peace of mind knowing that if any issues arose with the work, he was immediately available to address them. Fortunately, the service was perfect and we didn’t need him, but his accessibility was greatly appreciated. I will absolutely be using this plumber again for any future needs.??????

My mom suddenly lost hot water in her house. I live 250 miles away. It was Saturday. Her usual plumber wasn't available. A-1 plumbing had great reviews so I called them. Alice was wonderful and understanding on the phone. They couldn't come out Saturday but she was able to schedule my mom's job the next morning on Sunday. Brian was delayed getting to my mom's house so the office called me twice to keep me updated on his arrival. Once Brian got to the house he called me to direct him to the water heater outside the house. He sent me a video of the problem along with pictures. He gave me a reasonable estimate of the work to be done which was change everything as the water heater was beyond repair. I was able to sign off the job quote via email. When the new unit was installed and functional, he sent me pictures of the work. I was able to pay on-line. The service was impeccable. I would be very happy to use A-1 again for our plumbing needs.

I want to start by saying that both Jose (the plumber) and Alice (assistant/administrator) we're both easy to work with and polite. At the end of the day my drainage was fixed but I have two issues. Pics of the issue and before/after below as well. 1) Jose showed up and diagnosed the problem quickly, he then told me to wait while he puts together an estimate. After a few minutes he says it's going to be $975?! For removing the water, cutting out some of the pipe and replacing it so that he can snake it properly. I said no way that should cost $975 and asked how much is the "water removal" he said $100!! After a lot of back and forth and me saying I needed to get a second estimate from another plumber he told me they could fix it for $475 (and I now had to take out the water myself to save money, which I did and it only took 5-min...). I really wish I didn't have to barter to get a decent price (I assume I still got over charged). Ridiculous that after a few minutes of talking they dropped the price by more than 50% off what he quoted 5 minutes prior. Don't let these guys take advantage of you, if you use them, definitely get a second opinion and negotiate. 2) This is way less minor, but I did try to book through the online "Booking" link. I didn't hear back for about 8-hours until I had to call directly. If I hadn't called I don't think I would've gotten a response. This is not a big deal, but it did delay me getting everything fixed by a day, which is a slight annoyance.
