Can't say enough good things about this company. Mr. Ariel was able to come see my leaky pipe the same day. 80 year old sewer pipe in the basement had decided to rust and start leaking. I was unable to use my kitchen sink and the outside drains were directing the rainwater into the house. Excellent Communication. They did not arrive on time, they got here EARLY for my appointment. I was impressed with the owner and his workers. They did a fabulous job and when was the last time the materials cost as much as the labor???? Very professional. Delighted to have a good contact for plumbing problems. My neighbors are already asking for the phone number. read more

Ariel's Plumbing did a great job on replacing our old toilet with a new and more efficient toilet. As Ariel was dismantling and removing the old toilet. There were other things which the previous contractor forgot to install when we had the bathroom remodeled. Ariel informed and showed us what was happening with the old toilet. We were all shocked to see what was left out when the previous contractor reinstalled the toilet back in its place. What Ariel did was, he went above and beyond and replaced what was missing. Which took Ariel a little more time than anticipated. Which was clearly understandable. Ariel took the time to clean, mount the new parts and the new toilet in which gave the bathroom such a cleaner look. We are so happy Ariel suggested getting the "Toto" elongated toilet. And to top it off Ariel didn't charge for the extra labor and parts! Ariel is very courteous and the level of service has alway been outstanding! Our families and friends have been doing business with Ariel's Plumbing for more than 13 years! Some of our friends much much longer. Ariel is our families and friends "GO TO PLUMBER"!!! As well as many others out there in need of Ariel's Plumbing. Ariel has done so much work for us during the years and here are some of the work Ariel has done for us just to name a few out of the many other Jobs he has done for us. 1. Replaced our plumbing in the lower level of our home because the pipes burst which and was in the flooring. Ariel relocated the pipes to the new plumbing codes and had the water pipes run in and through the ceiling, which took place 6 years ago. 2. Replaced the gas line and waterline from defective water heater and replaced it with a new water heater. It was a good thing the water heater was still under warranty. Which was 13 years ago. 3.Replaced our other bathroom with another Toto Toilet which was about a year ago. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND ARIEL'S PLUMBING! You cannot go wrong or have any remorse when it comes to Ariel's Plumbing! Ariel's work and cheerful personality speaks for itself. read more

First off -- we're new home owners and as millennials we certainly have not learned the ins and outs of "home fixing". IF there's an option to provide 10 stars my family and I would!! Call Ariel for ALL of your plumbing needs! He is HONEST, EXPLAINS THE SITUATION, DOES NOT UPSELL OR CHARGE EXTRA & GENUINELY WANTS TO HELP YOU! EVEN EXPLAINS AND WALKS THROUGH HOW TO FIX OURSELVES FOR FUTURE NEEDS. ----- LONG STORY OF OUR PLUMBING EXPERIENCE BELOW ----- We had a leak in our toilet on the second level bathroom ON A SUNDAY mid morning -- which then spread water all over the floor and leaked downstairs into the ceilings and down into our garage. We panicked and called multiple plumbers which were fully booked and did not have any technicians available until the next day. This was a BIG UH OH for us. Ariel called us back and left a VM that he was at church but can make time to swing by afterwards. He called us and we explained what had happened. Ariel walked us through step by step on what to do and that this occurs when toilets clog and over flow, however since the water was no longer leaking or clogged, he wasn't needed in-person for this job. We certainly APPRECIATE the honesty and his time to talk to us over the phone and explain to us what we can do to solve the issue. A month later, we had issues with our kitchen sink clogging on a day that we were hosting many family members and a big meal was to be prepared. We called Ariel on a SATURDAY this time, panicking. Ariel was fully booked that day, so we reached out to other plumbers. A technician came by and gave us a quote for the job and it was definitely a lot of $$$$, a number that we weren't expecting Thankfully Ariel called us back that afternoon to let us know that one of his clients had canceled and he came by as soon as he was finished with his other job. We learned that our fix was not an easy fix and that it would be an entire day job. Our entire kitchen plumbing needed to be replaced and the former person that did the plumbing had installed the everything going in the wrong direction. Ariel did what he could to help mediate our situation so that we can still use the sink for that day to host our party. He came back in his next availability and rectified and replaced our entire sink plumbing, including drilling into our dry wall and re-plastering to ensure everything went in the proper direction. Overall, he did an amazing job! He did not overcharge us, explained every single issue we had and why we were having it. He went above and beyond to help us. OUR SINK NOW DRAINS and MAKES HEALTHY DRAINING SOUNDS. In addition, Ariel came back the next day on his after work hours to help us install our new sink faucet. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. WE ARE LUCKY TO HAVE FOUND A RELIABLE PLUMBER THATS A MASTER AT HIS CRAFT. THANK YOU ARIEL!!!! read more

I was referred to Ariel by a good friend of mine- whom his family have used for years. We had our kitchen facet changed, new drain system for our kitchen sink due to clogging and garbage disposal installed. We also got new water pipes installed for our washer and dryer. We were given an estimate timeframe of 3 days to finish our project but it ended up being 2 days. He came by the day of our washer delivery to ensure the water was draining properly and made a few adjustments. Overall my family and I are satisfied with his work, knowledge and pricing. read more

Thank you Ariel for once again saving the day! read more

My grandma had a problem with her bathroom sink that nobody could fix, so we went through the phonebook to find a plumber. We called about 3 plumbers and were quoted around $200 to fix her sink knobs, but Ariel charged under half of that! He was very quick at assessing and dealing with the problem and he was very polite too. He even left his shoes on the doorstep of my grandma's house because he saw that none of us were wearing shoes indoors! My grandma and I were very happy with the service and gladly accepted his business card (which is a magnet for the fridge.) Highly recommended! read more

I just met Ariel today for the first time - and I wish to thank Anthony from Excalibur (water heaters - brilliant ppl) for the incredible recommendation. Ariel is like this special earthly angel with incredible skills; what makes him unique is that he is personable, professional and so kind. His skills-set are remarkable; he had to replace my entire unit (*toilet*), and drill, and replace it all, (leaving the bathroom spotlessly clean), the end result was fantastic. Look no further. This man is a gift and a superstar in his field. He is humble and I am so grateful! He is THE BEST! Thank you Ariel!!! read more

This was a horrible experience. I came to visit a friend who is fixing her house, and she had this man come in to do the plumbing. While he spoke well and was able to sell himself well, he put everything up when she sheetrock still needed to be put on the walls. He argued that the contract was worded different and that's why, even though the contract was written after the work was done. He took advantage of this kind woman trying to fix up the house her mother left her and is such a cheat. We called in when we got there to help her take off the appliances, that she paid $100 for and didn't even get to pick which ones, and the shut off valves won't come off. He was condescending, and told us to watch a YouTube video on how to do it. My friend has limited funds and he just told her to cut the sheetrock to for a circle around the pipe. Obviously he thinks is incapable of seeing the obvious and to make matters worse, he doesn't see what he did as wrong. Do not hire this guy to help you at all. He is out for the money, and not for the small funded person. Take a look at the photos and you decide if he is worth your money. Especially if he is willing to condescend to you as a client. read more

Used them a couple of times to fix our water heater and our main line. Did a great job too. Highly recommend ;)

Today is the second time my husband and I have used Ariel's services and he has always done an outstanding job. I discovered Ariel thanks to my mother's referral. Our shower drain was clogged but my husband already pulled all the hair he possibly can. We even used the plastic snake and no results. Our bath tub drain was clogged at the same time. We had no idea what to do. Thankfully, Ariel came to the rescue. He said he would arrive at 5pm, and just like before- he was punctual. So he worked his magic. Our place is pretty "vintage". It was built in the 1900s so the plumbing is structured differently than modern homes. He had to climb our roof to solve the problem. He was all smiles the whole way and made us feel really comfortable. It's pretty darn awesome how he knew his stuff. He was really quick and efficient. That is why I will always turn to Ariel for plumbing issues. He's also really cool to chat with and really nice. So our drains work now! Yay! It's hard to find a plumber now a days. We've tried a few before and we were so disappointed. But thankfully, we found Ariel and he's been a life savor. Thanks Ariel! read more

Wow. Ariel has changed our lives. We bought a new washer/dryer 8 years ago and since it was installed it had an extremely loud rattling sound when the hot water was on - i called so many people, plumbers, appliance repair etc - and no one could help me. Some said it was water hammering but bc the washer was in a super tight spot i needed multiple people to help move it - so it was getting very pricey - others would come and say they dont know the issue or its a plumbing issue or plumbers would say its an appliance issue. So as a result we lived with this annoyance for 8 years. Finally someone referred Ariel and I wanted to try one more time to see if something could be done about it - before we look into another machine. From the moment Ariel got here i knew he was our guy - he took the time to understand the issue - inspect the problem, he even creatively figured out how we could pull the appliance out slightly without needing many people - lo and behold after about 30 minutes of troubleshooting he realized it was something clogging the hot water hose- Unbelievable. All these years and it was likely the guys who installed it didn't realize they were causing a clog in the hose. Ariel was super smart, patient and thorough - he is also extremely fair in pricing and he doesn't just want to take advantage of you and make you do unnecessary work just to make money. - i literally teared up when he left. We are so blessed that we found him!!! read more

if you need a plumber, you'll be better off calling someone else. well that is harsh, if you need a plumber and have a whole lot of time on your hands to sit around and wait call Ariel. seriously if i could give negative stars i would give them -3, for the days i sat around hoping that they would show up. i can't leave a totally all bad review, so Ariel is actually a very nice guy. read more

Ariel had come over to my house on a Monday night to confirm the estimate he had given me for my water heater. He informed me he would be obtaining a permit on Thursday and he would work on my water heater on Saturday. I have made several calls and even sent a text. No response and no show! This is very unprofessional. Especially since he was aware that this was a time sensitive matter with my HOA involved. I absolutely do not recommend this company at all!! read more

I am very satisfied with Ariel's work. He gave an accurate, reasonable quote. I had received several outrageous quotes from other plumbers charging something like $500.00 an hour? This isn't my first time having any of this work done and wasn't falling for it. 2nd time for the disposal, 4th time for the faucet. Ariel had good recommendations on Nextdoor, he answered his phone right away and we had an appointment within the week. The time got messed up, my dumb neighbor treated him like crap, refusing directions to the building despite proper identification but Ariel showed up on time nevertheless. The work was done quickly, thoroughly and within the time quoted He provided some extra parts when necessary. He also demonstrated best practices for more life from the fixtures which obviously I needed. Ariel is so very friendly and polite that I was embarrassed over my neighbor's bad behavior but it's to be expected from those maskholes. I would recommend Ariel without hesitation after multiple experiences with other plumber and contractors. Ariel was Covid safe and has promised to get his vaccination very soon! read more

I have been working with Ariel for at least 4 years at my house in San Mateo 94403. Ariel is top notch. I have recommended him to many of my friends & family. He's kind, professional, and very knowledgeable/capable with all of the plumbing jobs I have thrown at him. I have used him at least 10-15 times, but now I'm finally writing a review because I feel I owe it to him for doing such good quality work. He is well aware of code requirements. He installed a full bathroom in my lower level and it came out beautifully. I have shown it to many neighbors who were all impressed with his high quality, craftsmanship. Do not hesitate to use Ariel, I know you will pleased with him both personally and professionally. read more
