This is the third time I have used Albert Nahman. This time was for a water leak with an unclear origin. They did a great job diagnosing the problem and took the time to explain what they found and offer options on potential fixes. I really appreciate the care their plumber took in tracking down the problem and providing a realistic quote for the cost and time to fix the problem. They also arrive on time and do a great job cleaning up after the work is done. A+++ company. Will definitely use them again the in future.

Fernando was great. It was an easy fix and he didn?t make me feel like an idiot because I could have fixed it myself!

The crew from Albert Nahman did a great job from start to finish. The project was to replace the original ductwork in our 60 year old house. Tom provided excellent advice for the estimate then Bryan’s crew did the job, 2 days, within a week of my acceptance of the proposal. Great work.

Water Heater - Install or Replace
My elderly mother needed a new water heater . I gave her the contact info for a great, honest plumber. But due to her dementia, she forgot and ended up having a neighbor call a plumber, they chose Albert Nahman . Two plumbers came out and spoke with her and my 85 year old uncle and they were convinced to hire them at a price of over $6k (which, if you can believe, included the "senior discount"). My mom and uncle are clearly confused and easy to take advantage of, and these guys went above and beyond to take advantage of them, charging 4 times what this job should have cost. I called and spoke to a manager and got a ridiculous story of how complicated this job was, and how they were charged a reasonable price. I took away that this company is corrupt from top to bottom. If you want to be taken advantage of, charged way more than any decent plumber would charge, and then treated like an idiot who doesn't know that they are being cheated, this is the company for you!

Furnace / Forced Air Heating System Install or Replace
We had a new system installed by Albert Nahman plumbing. They were very prompt in scheduling the installation. They were also very prompt in talking us into buying a service contract. What they are not prompting doing is honoring that service contract. They have failed to send a technician out on a promised day, management has not gotten tossed with us, and we have no evidence that they will ever keep any of their promises regarding service. If I had known how this was going to go after installation was done, I would?ve picked a different company to work with.

The plumbing technicians came out as promised to assess the leak. They were both very courteous and kind and assessed the damage. I am giving three stars because they estimated the cost to be almost 250% higher than what the actual cost was to fix the issue. I am sure there are customers out there that would just accept any bid however, please get multiple beds for these projects, especially when working with this company as they will inflate the cost to take advantage of the situation. I ended up only paying for the $79 estimate.

He was not able to perform the service. He told me he did not have the correct parts. That I needed PGE to come back out. I had another professional come the following day and he was able to diagnose and fix both wall heaters with no issue. I was very diappointed and felt cheated.

Professional and prompt service, seemed a bit expensive but maybe that is just inflation these days, transparent pricing and worked with me to find an appropriate solution

Called them to fix a Rinnai tankless. Made the situation worse than it started with, after $4000. Incompetent. Unprofessional. Overpriced.

10/6/2024 - Ongoing Toilet Leak Issue – Unresolved Since February Dear Albert Nahman Plumbing, I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to express my extreme frustration regarding the ongoing toilet leak issue that has yet to be resolved, despite numerous attempts to rectify it. The problem began in February 2024, when my toilet started leaking and refilling its tank every 2 to 4 hours. Since March 18, 2024, I have had five appointments with your team to address this issue. I have paid a total of $545 for a new canister flush valve and a new toilet fill valve, yet the toilet continues to leak exactly the same way it did before. What is particularly disheartening is the lack of communication since August. I have repeatedly tried to reach out via email and phone, but my messages have gone unanswered (August to October). I chose your company based on your good ratings and the assumption that I would receive quality service from a licensed plumber. Unfortunately, my experience has been quite the opposite. I would appreciate a prompt response to this matter and a clear plan for how we can finally resolve the leak. Thank you for your attention to this urgent issue. Sincerely, Andreas

Do NOT hire this company to install a heat pump, or to do anything else on your home, for that matter. Albert Nahman botched the installation of a Lennox HVAC system at our house back in June. The issue is we paid extra for a 2-zone system but the techs weren't capable of installing it, or failed to do so. Now we have a heat pump that makes a constant electrical buzzing sound and two thermostats that don't work. This was almost 3 months ago and I was patient at first. They've missed appts to come fix it. Then they proposed a work-around in the thermostat app but it doesn't work. I keep getting the runaround from customer service. I've spoken to Art and Jessica, they promise to call me back and never do. At this point, we're fed up with Albert Nahman and the Lennox system. We want the entire system removed and to start from scratch with a different manufacturer and installer. Don't hire this company. They don't know what they're doing and they don't treat their customers well.

Albert Nahman PHC installed new AC and Furnace for my house. I like them for several reasons -- 1. At first Tom explained in detail what equipment I need and how they work, and gave me a reasonable and detailed quote at end of the visit. 2. They offer interest free finance. 3. I got free upgrade for furnace when the original quoted is not available. 4. Their installer did good job, and cleaned up afterward. I highly recommend this company.
