"I noticed my water heater leaking late in the evening (Saturday night), and Sunday morning I reached out to Angie's List for a water heater replacement. I set my expectations that it probably wouldn't be attended to until the work week, but Jesus for Jess Plumbing responded within minutes. Checking with some of the big box stores, Jesus had extremely reasonable pricing that included the purchase of the water heater, labor for removing/installing, and hauling away the old one. After confirming pricing, he was at my home with the new water heater in hand within the hour. Once he arrived, he had a very warm and open attitude as he broke down all the steps that we'd be going through. he was very knowledgeable with the alternate methods of electric or tankless, and gave the pros/cons should I decide for an upgrade in the future. Throughout the install, I enjoyed our conversation very much and he didn't mind that I hung out in the garage while working on other projects. He moved with the intention that only comes with years of experience, deliberate and precise. When we had to shut off the water he communicated that ahead of time knowing that my family could possibly have a need to access it. Overall the whole process went incredibly smooth and would not hesitate to hire him again or to recommend him to a friend."

"Great service and very prompt response. They handled the toilet repair quickly and efficiently. The customer service was also excellent—professional, courteous, and easy to communicate with. Highly recommended."

"It was a pleasure being able to have Robert come out to help with my family s water heater issues. He was very friendly and is a well experienced plumber (I believe he told me 20 years as a licensed plumber). Response time was excellent, same day service, and the cost of service was more reasonable than any other estimates we received. I would highly recommend Robert and Drain Right to my friends or family, and I will be reaching out for his plumbing services again if I ever encounter any plumbing issues while I m still living in the Bay Area."

"Can not imagine a better response, starting with my call for assistance, response time and how the technician, Tad methodically diagnosed the problem. We have an obscure kitchen fixture that required service in Feb 2019. Under warranty the problem was easily diagnosed by me, a problem possibly caused by me and a replacement part sent and installed by Albert Nahman team. Problem: I broke the faucet cartridge. Current Problem: restricted hot water flow in this kitchen sink only. Turns out the new cartridge part is now malfunctioning. I called and Tad arrived taking a step by step approach ruling out possible causes: a clog here or there, build up of sediment, or blockage in the lines or cartridge. The company that sells the product got on the phone with Tad and they collaborated on the problem and the tech person gave Tad one more thing to try. After the collaboration it is agreed, problem persisted and therefore that new cartridge part is now malfunctioning and will be shipped free of charge in two days. Thanks to all, who made this possible and I trust we will have Tad here again soon to finalize this fix. BTW, cost of service was less than expected given going rates for such a call lasting in excess of one hour. Another comment, spending time with Tad during the repair was a pleasure to have him explain, collaborate, listen and just chat. Questions on who to call next time, no question who I will call next time. I have read criticism of costs: In the Berkeley area "How much does it cost to hire a plumber? Some plumbers have a minimum fee for a service call. They might charge anywhere from $175-250 to come out and give you a consultation. Plumbers may give you a general service rate of $128-148 per hour when there are a lot of unknowns about a project and they aren't sure how long it will take. Some charge a flat rate for their plumbing services. For example, you may get charged $175 for a sink or drain cleaning, while toilet installation costs $500." Today costs are upfront, same as charges in Feb, $69 to arrive and assess the problem. Here in excess of one hour for $129 minus $25 coupon, total charge $173. I am ok and I expected these costs. If I was in Philly, where I grew up, I could call an uncle or cousin and get a better rate, a family rate. This is going rate for our area."

"The plumber was very patient, explained the work clearly, and provided fast and excellent service. I highly recommend him!"

"Trio Heating and Air was an amazing company to work with! About a month ago I had Adrian come out and give me a quote on a new furnace for my home and he was so knowledgeable and easy to understand on what type of system I was needing for my home to lower my bill. We went with Trio and they scheduled the install to be done the very next day! Ever since then the furnace has been working so good they set the thermostat up just right I barely had to change it when it become cold outside. It was such an easy and fast process. I would defiantly recommend Trio Heating and Air for any for your heating and cooling needs!"

"I would give them six stars if I could. The entire process was smooth and pleasant. Fair negotiation, good price, excellent execution. We had to replace sewer lateral - a major work - and Faren and his guys did everything highly professionally and on time, including taking care of city permits, inspections, and protection of the site. Warmly recommended to everyone."

"Hello fellow consumers,
They came to do a water heater flush and replace a faucet - Angie's deal for $49.
They found some problems, which were valid.
But they used that as an excuse to charge extremely inflated prices.
I had to talk with my wife about the balance between not having them do the work now because their price was absurd vs. having another plumber come out, taking another 1/2 day off of work, to save a few hundred dollars.
Unfortunately my wife and I have been insanely busy due to her new job, so I just had them do the work, but I feel sick about it.
That is not what I want from a business to earn my loyalty, I will never use them again.
Readers may decide for themselves whether the price was fair and/or reasonable - 

What they did was (not included in the AL deal)...

Replaced approx. 20' of water line.  They used 3/4 copper 6 for replacement.  

Installed 3/4 ball valve and two supply lines.

Installed new Anode rod to replace the old one in the water heater.

Replaced approx. 10' of plastic laundry drain to foundation of house.

There were two guys, although for at least 70% of the time the assistant/apprentice just stood around.

So, including the time to do all work for the Angie's list deal - about 1/3 of the time - and the added work that they charged me for, and explaining why I needed all this, and to drink the coffee I made for them, the total time on site was about 3 hours.

I was charged a total, after a "discount", of $1,967.00.

Ultimately I paid almost $2,000 for no more than two hours of work, done almost entirely by one person, using materials consisting of 20' of copper 3/4' line, 10' of plastic drain, a valve, an anode rod, and two supply lines.
If that sounds good to you, by all means call up Benjamin Franklin, The Punctual Plumber.
But I will NEVER use them again, and I recommend you stay away as well.
Long time Angie's List user in Oakland, CA.

"I purchased the special through Angie's list for the faucet replacement. Daisy, with Rayne, called me before I could call them to schedule the appointment! Super fast, and super friendly. I got an appointment for just a couple of days later! Super convenient! When I made my appointment, I mentioned that my daughter had a show for camp on that afternoon, and they would have to be there and finished by 2pm. On the day of the appointment, they called me first thing in the morning and came even earlier than promised! Super punctual! Aaron Campa, was very friendly, and completed the work very quickly. He even checked with me on the positioning of our multi-hose connector! He went above and beyond! All in all, I couldn't say enough positive things about Rayne, and my experience with them. I will now use them for all my plumbing needs!"
