After getting a very high quote from a major plumbing chain, we decided to contact Water Heater…read moreMasters. We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Water Heater Masters. Alex sent our technician, Rojo, who helped install a new 40-gallon gas water heater in our indoor utility closet, and he was incredibly diligent, professional, and efficient from start to finish. Installing a tank in an inside closet can be tricky, but Rojo handled the entire job seamlessly in just 2 hours. He replaced everything with high-quality components, including: * New hot and cold water flex lines * A brand new water shut-off valve * A new gas flex line and sediment trap * Fully reworked earthquake straps (to meet California safety codes) * Properly updated T&P line and venting He also took care of the removal and disposal of our heavy 18 yr old tank, leaving the utility closet completely clean. If you want fair pricing, expert specialized service, and a technician who respects your time and home, call Water Heater Masters and ask for Rojo. Highly recommended!

We were replacing a gas water heater with a hybrid electric heat pump water heater. Generally, this…read moretype of heater costs twice as much (price and installation) as a traditional electric water heater, but costs a lot less to run (and therefore you recoup the additional cost in a few years from lower operating costs). I had a very easy experience getting an on-site quote. I received 3 quotes for this job. 2 quotes, including this one, came in around $7100. I went with a third one at around $6700 (which included an additional mixing valve) and am very happy with my decision. Overall price was not a big part of my decision, but brand of water heater was. After doing some research online, the most recommended brands are AO Smith and Rheem (GE). Both higher quotes were for Navien, which has only been making heat pump water heaters for 1 year, but I was told that it is the most reliable brand. I did not understand how this claim could be made, given how short the duration of evaluation for this product. Even the worst appliances usually work for at least a year. So I requested a quote for AO Smith or Rheem, which I did not get. I'm not sure why my brand request was not honored, but it made me question whether I should go with a company that either has communication issues or maybe some type of deal with Navien that I was not informed about. Many water heater installers are preferred installers of certain brands, which means they can get better pricing, etc. I did not want to be a guinea pig for Navien.

Jazz was first responsible for fixing our broken dishwasher. The professionalism and education…read moregiven freely to me during the process really stood out. They hit another home run when Isaiah and Monty were assigned to a plumbing issue at my house. It was a hectic week to start, topped off with a backed up toilet that started to overflow. After I turned off the toilet and used a plunger and some elbow grease to fight back the overflow, I knew I needed a professional opinion. Turns out, Jazz not only fixed a huge backup of sewage, fixing the immediate issue; they did it with such professionalism that I was really impressed. Monty and Isaiah were a great team. Special shout out to their non-pushy approach. I really appreciated the speed, efficiency, professionalism and honesty that these associates demonstrated. The folks on the phone, such as Mario and Adrian/AJ, are also fantastic and really made the process easy end-to-end. Well done, Jazz. That was excellent overall value and the highest-quality service I could ever ask for.

Given that I didn't have to wait days for an appointment, I agreed to the price, which was initially high compared to others. That being said, it ultimately became roughly the same, if not a little cheaper, than other places that charged by the hour or quarter hour, as the job was a little more complex than initially thought. The guy spent almost 2.5 hours here to change out two bibs (again, way more complex than he probably thought), and he did a wonderful job. My problems were addressed same day, same visit. If I chose other plumbers, I would have waited days before my items were addressed.

We used this company in July of 2026 and they were great. We had been smelling a slight gas smell…read morein our garage for a number of months. The smell was not consistent. It only occurred when the weather was hot. Basically, only summer afternoons. We had PG&E come out repeatedly and they could not find the source. We spoke with plumbers and other heater repair companies. All of them told us that it was not our heater; that we were wrong about the inconsistency of the smell. That gas leaks are only consistent and would not happen only when it was hot. We were told that we must be wrong. We felt like we were going crazy. Until we called Bay Area Water Heaters and Dave came out (with a whole crew). He took the time to inspect our heater and said yes, this slight gas smell on hot days is something he had heard of. It was likely due to an old valve within the control panel. He walked us through our options but ultimately suggested replacing the entire heater. His team was able to do the job right then and there and at a reasonable rate. It was completed within the hour. And sure enough, no more gas smell in our garage. Dave and his team were amazing and incredibly professional. We will be using this company again.

I sent a request on a Sunday about a toilet that had slowed to a crawl. Cristóbal Paredes got back…read moreto me within minutes, and Wilson was at my door and finished the job within three hours -- on a Sunday afternoon, when most plumbing companies around here won't book anything outside a weekday appointment. The old angle stop behind the toilet turned freely but was clearly calcified internally. Wilson replaced it with a proper quarter-turn ball valve and swapped the fill valve as well. Fill time and pressure are back to normal. Two things stood out beyond the work itself. First, I had already bought some of the parts, and Wilson took them right off the estimate without my having to ask. Second, my Kohler has a canister-style flush valve, and instead of upselling me on the seal, he showed me how to replace it myself -- which part to order, how to get the canister out, what to watch for. That's a repair he could easily have billed me for. Fast, honest, clean work, and genuinely generous with his knowledge. If you need a plumber who won't pad the bill -- and who actually shows up on a weekend -- call Master Plumbing Solutions.

That being said, I asked them to open the stuck watermain valve that I haven't touched for 25 years and he miraculous got it loosened and operable again that's something that needs to be every year to prevent this from happening which can prevent a flood so that I'm very grateful and it's worth every penny.

The first time was a pipe under the sink that busted and it flooded the kitchen and it was going into the living room. He helped to repair the broken pipe. The second time was a few weeks ago when a part connected to our water heater blew up. It was spraying water everywhere and again part of the downstairs flooded. Not only did he respond to my message that I left quickly! And I also left a text just to be sure. He called back and walked me through some safety protocols to make sure everything was turned off like the gas. Then came by the next day! He is very honest and does not try to upsell. He could've easily sold me a whole new water heater installation because it's been in the home already now for 18 years!, but he decided that we could just try changing the one part that had rusted and began spewing water everywhere. It was crazy. I was in so much distress, but was so encouraged by his honest helpfulness. It ended up being cheaper than I had anticipated. Because I had checked in with Costco and Home Depot for a full replacement. But if I would've went that route, I would've spent thousands of dollars. It feels so good to know that there's an honest skilled plumber in our community you're not only does excellent work but cares about people. We learned the hard way: check your water heaters regularly.

The cost was reasonable and he got it done in one day. He was very easy to work with, responsive to my texts and kept the bathroom door closed to prevent the dust from going everywhere - I appreciated that!
