Tony and Juan are lifesavers!! The day (Sunday) the 2021 winter storm hit, both of my toilets started leaking at their bases, and water came up through my bathtub drains. I turned off water to both toilets and stopped using my drains. I called Tony early the next morning (Monday) and he got back with me and told me I was first on his list as soon as the roads were safe. Tony texted my daily to let me know he was monitoring the road conditions hourly. And on Friday afternoon, as soon as the roads were safe, Tony texted me to let me know he was on his way. A man of his word, I was first on his list! Tony and his assistant Juan worked quickly and efficiently and found the source of the issue - tree branches coming through the sewer pipe and causing a blockage. They removed the branches and we discussed a subsequent visit once his schedule lightened to address the root of the cause (no pun intended). Tony's rates are reasonable and he lets you know what the charges are upfront so that there are no surprises. He's a friendly guy who really wants to take care of his customers! After leaving my house, Tony and Juan said they had several other appointments and would likely work until midnight. Kudos to them for wanting to help as many people as possible during such a traumatic event. I can't recommend Armadillo Plumbing enough, and I am so grateful for their assistance during this time. Tony has been my go-to plumber for a few years now, and this last visit reiterated why I only use him! read more

We had a need of a plumber ...quick. Armadillo accommodated our time line and got the job done in no time. We are happy with the work done.

While this company doesn't do the job I called them for - ruptured cast iron sewage pipes - they took the time to get back to me immediately and referred me to a 5 star Yelp company that does. Thank you. read more

We had an exterior pipe burst from the big freeze last night, flooding the backyard. The city had to shut off our water at the curb. I called Tony the next morning (on Christmas Eve) and he was out later that day. His estimate was provided up-front and was very fair, especially given the same day service on a holiday weekend. He gave some future recommendations and I definitely plan to have him come back out in the spring. read more

Thank you Tony. I had a water issue where my bathroom, kitchen and laundry room flooded anytime I used any water facility (toilet, shower, sink). At first I didnt know where it came from so after troubleshooting it, found that all the water was coming from my downstairs bathroom anytime any water in the house was used, causing a big mess. It was about 6PM when I called and although Tony wasnt available, he did give me some pointers of what too look for and gave me a reference (texted it within minutes of hanging up). After trying 6-7 people (none available), I decided on using Armadillo for this service (first impression was just awesome). So I scheduled for him to come out the next day. Next day comes and Tony texted me first thing in the morning saying he would be out in 30 minutes (note: this was much earlier than he quoted and of which I was super thankful for as I couldnt use any water at all). Tony shows up, (in a mask) and begins work. All told, 20-30 minutes and the job was complete with a solution and a diagnosis and I can finally use the water again. Saving Tonys contact info and will use him on future endeavors. Thank you for the prompt service and great attitude read more

Tony is a friendly professional who gets the job done. We've called on him for several different instances, including small jobs (leaky faucets, garbage disposal failure) to big ones (hot water heater replacement). Throughout it all he's been very upbeat and helpful. We appreciated that he would give a small time window for when he'd show up (none of that "between 8 and 5" nonsense, but something more like "around 10 and 1") and would text when he was 30 minutes out. He also took proper precautions with masks and social distancing during covid times. Thanks, Tony! read more

Tony is very professional and works efficiently. He was able to get a bigger water heater installed for our home and remove the old leaking unit. I had a lot of questions for him, and he talked me through them. I highly recommend Armadillo Plumbing. read more

Called the Armadillo guys due to good Yelp ratings. They did not disappoint. The Armadillos showed up a few minutes late ... but they let me know and apologized. They wore plastic booties to save my carpetting without being asked. They took care of business efficiently and in good humor as I followed them around due to curiousity. When I have plumbing work in the future, I'll be pboning the Armadillos straight off. read more

We have used Armadillo Plumbing for many years and highly recommend them to anyone with a plumbing issue. Tony (the owner) has installed hot water heaters for us, new faucets, and unclogged kitchen and bath drains, plus more. He is honest, reliable and has great rates. We will continue to call Armadillo Plumbing for any future plumbing issues. read more

Armadillo did a great job cleaning sewer lines. Tony was very friendly and they showed up on time. Actually was able to charge less than quote as job didn't completed easier than expected. read more

There was a knocking noise every time we turned the water off at a sink and flushing the toilet. I was told by someone else it was the piping in the wall but Tony did not agree and came up with a plan. He replaced some faucet parts, replaced and fixed toilet tank parts, cleaned some sink drains and replaced the water heater. (The water heater was under warranty and Tony did all the leg work with where the heater was purchased.) We had used Tony in the past and liked him so we called him for this project. The knocking noise is no longer and everything works smoothly. I can't emphasize enough Tony's commitment to quality, experience, service and expertise when it comes to plumbing, he is the best! I would highly recommend Tony for any plumbing need you might have! read more

Our toilet water tank cracked and we had a leak. Tony was able to come and fix it right away. He did a very good job and made sure he explained things very well. Tony was very careful making sure to wear masks and took appropriate precautions during Covid-19 period. I will use Tony again for any plumbing needs that I might have and will recommend him to anyone. read more

Great service, getting in contact is always easy. Takes into consideration everything when quoting work and is very consistent.

Armadillo Plumbing is the first on my list for all my plumbing needs! I've had Tony out to my house multiple times and he's done an amazing job each time. Our family was leaving to go out of town when our sink started acting up and he helped me troubleshoot the issue until he could get to it. I appreciate that there's clear communication, and not a lot of work being done with the assumption that I want everything. Ending up with a bill larger than I was originally quoted. Great company and I highly recommend them to anyone needing plumbing services now or in the future. read more

I called Tony because I have an AC condensate drain that is clogged, and my drip pan is full. I was hoping to find a good plumber to squeeze me into his schedule on the same day (more of a schedule emergency for me, rather than a true plumbing emergency -- due to my personal travel plans and work constraints, I needed to get this done today, or I'd have to wait for over a month, and I didn't want to leave the house vacant for that long with a shallow aquarium in my attic!). I called ET Plumbing first, and they couldn't get me in, and they very kindly gave me a few referrals, one of which was Tony with Armadillo Plumbing. I called Tony, and explained my issue, and he said he wasn't able to fit me in either. Ok... no worries. I moved on. A while later, Tony called back and said he'd had a cancellation and could get me in. I was ecstatic. He gave me a window when he'd be here, which was about 2.5 hours later. During that time, I had two other plumbers call me back with availability, and I thanked them and said I already had Armadillo coming. Fast-forward to 3 hours later, Tony (I guess it was Tony) showed up. He asked where the sink was, so I took him to the master bath where the HVAC condensate line is connected. He ran water in the sink for a while and concluded that it was running fine. All he could offer was to snake the drain out (the *sink* drain) -- I reminded him that the problem wasn't the sink, it was the condensate line that drains *into* the sink drain. He said "we don't work on HVAC systems". I was bewildered!!! I reminded him that I had explained *precisely* what the problem was on the phone, and that he could have told me that, and saved us both a lot of time! I turned away two other plumbers who are now no longer available because Tony said he could be here! He said he wouldn't charge me since he didn't do anything -- and I'm certainly appreciative of that. But he had no idea why I was upset. It wasn't about charge or no charge -- it was about wasting my time (and his) and costing me another day, since it's now too late to get anyone else to come out! All he had to do was say "we don't work on HVAC systems" when I was on the phone with him, when I clearly explained that the HVAC line is where the problem was!! Anyway, he gave me a lot of defensive attitude when I tried to explain why I was disappointed, kept telling me I should call "Eric" (who the heck is Eric, and why would I call him??), and then he stormed out of my house in a huff-- as if it were MY fault. On the whole, he gets points for calling me back and working me into his schedule -- I certainly appreciate that. But his poor communication skills and his inability to take any responsibility for wasting both of our time was extremely disappointing. His rudeness when I tried to explain my disappointment was unacceptable -- and that (his rudeness) is why I won't use Armadillo in the future. And by the way, I've had this issue (condensate drain getting clogged and/or causing a clog at the sink) twice before, which is why I know exactly where the clog is, and what's causing it. The sink wasn't clogged because I cleared that part myself, and in the process, I probably made the clog in the condensate drain worse. Regardless, the times I've had this issue before, I had a PLUMBER fix it. Zero points to Armadillo for being unwilling to work on HVAC drains, which are nothing more than plumbing! read more

I've used Tony @ Armadillo Plumbing exclusively for a few years now. Ever since we used inferior plumbers and ended up with a whole home flood, I've relied on Tony and his expertise and professionalism in my home. He is always honest, reliable and friendly. I've recommended him to friends and they have been extremely pleased with his work as well. If he's busy, wait until he's free. You won't regret it. Highly recommended! read more

We have used Tony and his crew for two jobs now (toilet repair and water heater maintenance/repair) and we are extremely pleased with his professionalism and work! We will continue to contact him for any of our plumbing needs as we know he will do a great job at an awesome price. read more

Tony was amazing. He gave us a quote that ended up being pretty spot on. He told us about potential problems without seeming to try to sell us. And boy did he clean up after himself - we think the bathroom was cleaner after he left even though we had cleaned before his coming! And a genuinely nice guy! Totally recommend him and his company! read more

Tony just replaced a leaking tub faucet and a leaking shower faucet, and also installed two new toilets. The service was excellent. When they removed one of the toilets they discovered wood rot from a chronic leak under the marble floor and gave me the name of a company (Wow Construction) who could repair the damage. Wow sent a rep within two hours to give an bid, and then fixed it the following day so that Tony could finish putting in the toilet. The cost of the work was quite reasonable, the service was excellent, and we greatly appreciated Tony's expertise and skill. I would definitely recommend this company. read more

These guys came on a weekend when others said they would only come on a Saturday if it was an emergency. Our kitchen sink was clogged and he cleared it out quickly and was very friendly and polite. read more

Tony is an amazing problem solver. Thought I had an easy job with 2 new kitchen faucets to install, (but NO) one in my studio needed more space to fasten down tight, and quicker than I would have thought Tony had pulled out a big drill and cut a 2 in hole underneath -- and for the first time got the new faucet to sit against the countertop nice and secure. Yay. Kitchen faucet was a lot like the old one, but new parts were missing the sprayer extension to fit with a thick countertop. No problem, we tried some options in his bag and Tony helped me find the extender part online, then returned for free to install the sprayer for free. Relaxed and chatty about it didn't get frustrated at all. Lots of plumbing installation requires odd, unexpected fixes with things requiring good problem-solving and a cheerful attitude. Tony was really great, fast to respond to phone calls, followup text to schedule and confirm. Really professional. I'd give him 6 stars if I could. read more

Tony is now my go-to plumber. I needed someone super fast in an emergency for a busted water heater but had called 2 other companies with more yelp reviews before discovering Tony. Both of those companies were booked for a week. When I called Tony he was able to come out the same day to check it out and take out the leaking water tank and then came the next day after water remediation people had done their magic to install a new one. He also fixed a leaky sink for me afterward. Can't beat his work ethic and attitude. Great guy and great work! read more

I had never needed a plumber at my house before, so when I had some issues I was flying blind. I contacted a highly rated one here on Yelp. He was busy, but personally recommended Armadillo. I called Tony, and after explaining my problem, he already had a good idea of what would be needed. He met me at my house within an hour, was very pleasant, courteous and personable, and solved the problem quickly. Excellent experience... He'll definitely be the first plumber I call in the future. read more

Armadillo was referred to me by Blue Dragon which was "backed up" in commitments for 3.5 weeks. I did not want to wait that long. BD gace me 2 names and I called Armadillo first. This fellow was fast and efficient. He also charged me less than he quoted because the job did not take as long as originally thought! That is honesty! When another plumbing need arises I will be calling them again! read more

It's hard to find a good plumber, much less a stellar plumber and that's exactly what Tony at Armadillo Plumbing is. Already called on him twice (once for a dishwasher install and a second time to seat 2 toilets). He is prompt, reliable, affordable, highly knowledgeable and most importantly honest. He was thorough and didn't rush through my jobs, gave me tips on how to do some light stuff on my own and also extremely clean before and after the jobs were completed. I would highly recommend Tony and Armadillo Plumbing and he will be my go-to guy in the future. read more

Tony was great. I was referred to him by another highly rated yelp plumbing company who recommended I give him a call when they couldn't fit me in. He is professional and very nice to work with and we now have our new plumber! He replaced my kitchen faucet, which was leaking and it looks beautiful. Thanks Tony! read more

Simply put, extremely professional and very competent and competitive pricing. Tony scheduled work the same day of initial contact. He showed up as agreed. Answered initial call and email in reasonable time, and effectively communicated recommended steps. He provided an itemized quote and explained additional options. The day he replaced our water hearted, he showed me the old unit and points of failure and cause. The old unit did last 13 years. He showed me the new unit and how it operated. He recommend replacing hoes and pipes, as nominal charge would provide less points of failures that could cause issues with the new unit. This is our new personal plumber. Excellence, Integrity and Professional. I highly recommend!!! read more

They contacted me and let me know they do care and apologized for not helping. I appreciate that read more

We had a 3 year old water heater start leaking. I looked up some plumbers on yelp, made a short list and called a couple 5 star places. Unfortunately they were all booked up and we couldn't wait. Blue Dragon and another one told us to give Armadillo Plumbing a try. We called and were glad we did. He came right out and gave us an estimate. He arrived early the next day with the new water heater. He really knew his stuff, was quick and professional. I made a note of his name and number. We will call him again when things go wrong. read more

Excellent! Tony and his partner were great, very professional! Had to have 2 new toilets installed. We called for the part, they came by a hour later with the 2 toilets, and we're done, maybe 1&1/2 hours, for both toilets! Recommended "highly"!! It's now about 3 weeks later, and Tony and Juan came out to put a new hot water heater in. Mine went out this morning, and they were very punctual ! When you find someone you can trust, stick with them! Their the best! read more

Had this plumber estimate a job then come out and after gave a quote much highest and then Found out there is a diagnostic panel which we weren't told and it was just a gas bal L mistake read more

Armadillo Plumbing was referred by another plumbing company. Glad they did. Tony was responsive, and lucky me, he is in my area. Tony was professional and provided good information when needing to replace my leaking water heater in the attic during 105 degree weather (sorry Tony!). I almost always take care of routine maintenance of anything in my home but ignored my water heater which Tony nicely informed me about. So he is on my reminder list to contact him next year to check the water heater. I guess my only excuse is working crazy hours and out-of-sight out-of-mind. Really dumb idea on housing developers to place water heaters in the attic when temps can get to extremes thus blowing out the pilot light. Tony disposed of the 5 year old water heater and replaced it with one that can take temps to 280 degrees in the attic. I highly recommend Tony for any plumbing needs and will use Armadillo Plumbing going forward. read more

My water heater went out this week, just as the first cold front rolled in. They came, they saw, they conquered. In no time we had hot showers again! A totally happy ending, to a tragic story. I highly recommend this company. Fast and efficient. read more

Our pipes in the kitchen were never great. The pipe under the sink would leak every time we ran the hot water for longer than a couple minutes. It would even leak through the wall on the other side, so it must have been leaking in those pipes too. We had to replace the faucet, but one of the valves was so rusty, it wouldn't come off and ended up leaking even more. After taping and toweling as best we could, I found Armadillo Plumbing on Yelp and it was about 20 minutes until their close of business. They still came out to our home after hours and fixed the problem and installed our faucet in about an hour. They were conscientious, competent and helped us out of a big problem. And from now on, any plumbing-related projects I start will be earlier in the day, just in case. :) read more

Solid Plumber. Tony came out to replace the under sink plumping, a few faucets and a shower head/control valve. Did a great job, looks great. Thanks Tony. read more

We came across Tony at Armadillo Plumbing by chance. We had a plumbing emergency, and I tried a different company with high Yelp ratings. They weren't able to schedule us as fast as we needed help, so they recommended Armadillo Plumbing. Tony was great! He was professional, fast and reasonably priced. This was a few years ago. He has become our regular plumber whenever we have any kind of an issue, and his service is consistently great. Had him out today for a part replacement and he quickly fixed the issue for a fair price. I highly recommend his business. read more

Tony was prompt, communicative, friendly, knowledgeable, and extremely helpful. Will certainly be calling again when a need arises.

How have I not reviewed Tony? We first worked with him a few years ago because our bathroom plumbing kept backing up. It was disgusting, stressful and we were snaking the pipes every time this occurred as a temporary fix all the while hoping that it would work itself out. Well, it didn't and one day we had a real emergency because our temporary solution failed so I called Blue Dragon Plumbing based on their stellar reviews. I spoke with Gilbert who was booked out for awhile so he recommended Tony Vallejo. Tony was able to come to our house that evening (and it was late...like 10 or 11pm) and fixed the problem. He's been out a few times for random things and every time we see him, it's like seeing a friend because he is so easy to talk with, non-judgemental, and really respects our time. We have recommended him to everyone we know because we are so pleased with Armadillo Plumbing. read more

Tony came over when I got home from work and unclogged my commode. No more cleaning gadgets hanging over the rim! Little sucker slip right off and collect TP in the pipe. Tony actually told me when u called best and worse case scenarios and cost. I appreciated that so I could cuss my way home in the car. Turned out it was the best resolution and he earned my gratitude n my payment. Good job, fair price, great communication. read more

Armadillo has just won my future business. My water heater gave out yesterday. Most plumbers were booked well into next week, including the big name companies in town, but Tony was available to come out yesterday and give me a quote and then came out this morning to do the install. In both cases he showed up on time, made sure to call a few minutes before arriving, was very friendly and polite, and did a great job installing the new water heater. After installing it, Tony took the time to explain to me the features of the new water heater and had fully filled out all of the information on the warranty card for me. Before leaving, he and his assistant ran all the hot water lines in the house to try to get out any trapped air and they checked around the floor near the trap door to the attic to pick up any insulation that may have fallen. Great job, done by a guy who really understands customer service. read more
