"Gustavo from Escamilla plumbing is a pro thru and thru. I gave him a tough job that I wanted to tackle but didn't have the necessary tools or time to tackle. I had him relocate the water heater lines and install a tankless water heater, remove steel pipes and redo drain lines. The kicker for the water lines was access next to a furnace and new gas lines that needed to be run due to insufficient gas supply. During the project we found micky mouse water line taps that needed to be removed and the house water shutoff valve that failed to closed completely. Lots of unexpected work but he gave decent quotes to complete the job. He is quick, doesn't cut corners, and gets the job done. I wholeheartedly recommend him for project a homeowner wouldn't touch or doesn't have time to do."

"Solid customer service and the plumber that did the thankless install did a great job. I had a frozen valve and they were able.to repair that on the fly. Their price was competitive with another quote I got. When asking for quotes for a water heater install, Aaron realized I bought the wrong type for my situation and pointed me in the right direction. I will absolutely use these guys for any future plumbing projects."

"Jesus repaired the leaking water pipes behind the shower valve. It was Sunday, but his response was quick and he showed up on time. I think he is the best honest plumber I ever met. He did a great job with reasonable price."

"We needed our Garbage Disposal replaced. We bought one, but realized we needed help to get it installed. Mike Counsil to the rescue. This is the 3rd time we have had work done by them. Last year they redid the pipes in our house, so it was a no brainer to call them for help with disposal installation! They communicate during the entire thing. Called and showed up when they said they would. This time we had Besmir and Jordy doing the work. Very friendly, explained what they needed to do, made suggestions along the way. Cleaned up afterwards. Great experience overall!"

"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."

"You will be so pleased that you chose The Tankless Guys to look after EVERYTHING and anything to do with plumbing in your home. Gert has been my go to professional for over 10 years for ALL my plumbing needs. He operates with the highest integrity. His top priority is to do what is in the best interests of his clients. Gert and Sergio installed my new water heater two years ago. Sergio stayed for much longer than he shouldâ ve after installation was complete. He took extra care to figure out how to program the timer for my existing hot water recirculator which was not part of the water heater job. He didnâ t have to stay, but thatâ s how Gert and Sergio are. True professionals willing to lend their expertise. Some plumbing companies out there send NOT very qualified plumbers to do the minimal and/or charge you a significant amount for unnecessary work. Gert is a straight shooter. He has saved me a ton of money to replace what needed to be replaced and NOT replacing what did not need to be replaced or fixed. He will tell you whatâ s the most economical and efficient and what you need to do to protect your home from future plumbing problems. If you want cut rate prices with NOT the most qualified plumbers, donâ t call The Tankless guys. If you are looking for a team who thoughtfully looks after your whole home and considers preventative measures that you might not have considered, Youâ ll be so happy you called the Tankless Guys. Remember you get what you pay for."

"I called avila plumbing and heating services and they were able to come out the same day and give us an estimate on replacing our old water main line. They did an amazing job and I would definitely recommend Cayetano and his guys."
