"The entire project from start to finish was fantastic. Within minutes of requesting a quote I received a text with a time they could be at the house. Rodney called to ask some questions, gave me an estimated price and time. Rodney was great to talk to and was very knowledgeable and helpful. Rolando arrived a little early which was great. He figured out what needed to be done and gave me an estimate which was within the range mentioned and started working. It took an hour to complete. Rolando went over what was done and why. I was extremely impressed with Rolando, he was courteous, informative and did a great job installing the water heater and bringing everything up to code. I wouldn’t hesitate to call Better Water Heaters again."

"Did a $59 consult only. Turned out the cost of repairing the old heater was almost as much as a new one, so we got a new one, and handled the install ourselves. Luis B was great, knowledgeable, friendly, didn't try to upcharge just to sell a heater, which we appreciated. Gave us an honest evaluation, several options, and was right on time. I will say, though, that the company failed to call me when he was on his way... not a big deal. All in all a good experience."

"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."

"The complete process from the quote, to scheduling, to the installation of the tankless water heater was excellent. It only took one week from quoting through the completion of the job. The installation was completed in one day. The team was cordial and professional. Furthermore, the price was competitive. I would strongly recommend Super Brothers for your plumbing jobs."

"Sarfraz was the first to respond to my request. He gave me a quote for what I was requesting, and we were able to schedule an appointment the following day. He was very friendly and also gave me helpful advice on maintaining my water heater, as well as which signs to look out for in the future, in order to prevent any problems or issues. I will definitely keep Durrani in my contacts for future business."

"Prompt, responsive, and competitive. Installers were efficient and professional. Wrong model water heater was initially delivered, but the team worked quickly to secure a correct replacement and completed the install the following day."

"In and out plumbing is great!  Easy to make an appointment... called at 9pm and scheduled service for the following day.  Plumber Mike was on-time and polite.  After showing him our leaky shower faucet, he provided two quotes- one to replace parts, the second to upgrade the plumbing to today's standards (1955 house).  After a few minutes we opted for the former.  Unfortunately there was a bolt that seemed to be glued in and so the handle stems had to be cutt off (also explains why my husband couldn't unsrew it the evening before).  The replacement were of an old design therefore Mike warned us that it may be difficult to find at a store.  He spend 45 minutes looking for it that day and upon not finding it at open stores, returned at 9am sharp the following morning to pick up the broken part (which he had replaced the night before so that the water could be turned back on for us) and spent about 60 minutes away while at another store.  Luckily he was able to find the part and had the faucet fixed by 11am.  During the entire work Mike was kind, communicative and obviously working hard to successfully complete the job.

Additionally, another plumber, Steve from In and Out Plumbing provided service just a few days prior for another problem... a corroded pipe with a hole was leaking water from our kitchen drain.  Steve was also very polite, communicative about our options for the repair, and was able to replace 2 feet of piping in about 30 minutes. 

In and Out Plumbing has been great on two occasions!  We will definitely use them again if we have any more plumbing issues."

"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."
