While here they…read morequickly determined the source of the issue in the existing plumbing, made the repair and set me up to detect any future leaks given that its all relatively recent plumbing throughout the house. They were professional, arrived on time and completed the job quickly. Where they go above and beyond for me though, is that they noticed work that had been done by a previous plumber on my hot water system, explained to me that it was incorrect and suggested a fix for it. Indeed I pasted pictures of this work on reddit and quickly got a breakdown from several other folks explaining why the previous work was faulty. Overall, I appreciate that attention to detail, and that they were able to squeeze in the additional work. The price for everything was very reasonable. The guys were very communicative, straightforward and I feel very comfortable using them again in the future for plumbing work. Highly recommend!

F&A Plumbing is now my go-to plumber for our 100-plus year-old San Francisco building…read more The insurance company for our 4-unit building required automatic earthquake shut-off valves on the 4 gas meters, and gave us a very short time to comply. I submitted photos and a project description to 17 plumbing companies on Yelp, requesting their price and timeframe for this work. Early that same day Firas (also known as Frank) of F&A Plumbing submitted back a competitive firm price and ability to schedule the work to be completed right away. The work was completed by Firas and his helper as scheduled, for the price quoted, with very good quality, even much quicker than originally expected. Thank you, Firas!

I manage an Airbnb and had a small plumbing disaster where 3 toilets, 2 in full bathrooms and 1 in…read morea half bathroom, were all seemingly clogged. Big mess, lots of gross water in places it shouldn't be, and my valiant plunging efforts were doing no good at all. With guests checking into the Airbnb in a short period of time, I called F&A Plugging and Rooter with an urgent request to send a plumber to my Airbnb that very day. Not only was the lady on the phone very nice, but she understood the urgency of the situation. After quickly collecting information about the situation, she let me know that a plumber would be able to come that day, in about two hours. I was so relieved. Then, something even better happened. About 20 minutes after I booked the appointment, the plumber himself called me and asked if he could come by in 30 minutes - a full 1.5 hours ahead of schedule! I agreed, met him at the place, and he assessed the situation quickly and professionally. He diagnosed the plumbing issue, made a recommendation on how best to fix it, gave me a price, and got to work. Within another hour the problem was fixed. I had a great experience with F&A Plumbing and would absolutely go back to them if any other issues ever arose.

Before scheduling, I called to confirm the price, and the person I spoke with also stated that the inspection would cost $65. However, when the technician arrived, I was told the price was actually $190. The advertised price and the quoted price over the phone did not match what I was charged on-site. Based on my experience, I would avoid this business and make sure to get all pricing in writing before scheduling any service.

Wow. Alex from Advanced Plumbing truly came through in a clutch for me and my sad little toilet in…read morean older San Francisco building. I have one of those tankless toilets that could barely flush a single piece of one-ply TP. I was on a tight timeline to get this fixed, and another plumber had already tried, failed, and charged me $900 dollars for the privilege. (Safe to say: do NOT call Magic Plumbing.) Alex came out the very next day, diagnosed the issue quickly, and explained that the toilet and the pipes leading into the wall all needed to be replaced. He handled everything professionally and knew exactly what to do to shut-off water pipes for our old building. A lot of plumbers do not know how to navigate that, and our building is ultra picky.. Four hours later, I had a fully functioning toilet again, and for far less than what the other company quoted. I was beyond relieved and so grateful for the quality of work and honest communication. Highly recommend.

I didn't have any serious work done so I cannot comment on that. I would be more enthusiastic if they hadn't charged so much for a very quick easy job. My usual plumber isn't available due to an injury, and he wouldn't have charged, valuing our business.
