Honestly the work is good...as it should be from a master plumber…read more The issue I have is the issue I've had with literally every plumber ever. They've got you over a barrel when they come out and start throwing parts. This was an install of a drop in kitchen sink and faucet. He told me his hourly rate was 135 bucks. I was expecting to spend about 400 maybe 500. The final bill was 850. I feel I was overcharged on both the parts and labor. He charged me starting 45 min before he got there but still included a "truck charge." The removal and replace of the sink took 2 hours. To me the "clock" starts on the labor at the agreed upon arrival time. When I'm getting charged 439(!) bucks for parts on top of the sink and faucet itself, that extra charge for labor is quite unwelcome. I mean the sink and faucet itself that were "nice" were like 500 bucks. So almost that again just in parts. ‍ His answer in general as I look at these reviews is that he buys his parts from a plumber supply not Home Depot etc. I would have to research each individual part to see if its price point is "fair". A perusal of solid brass fittings and pvc p traps on the Lowe's site shows the price I paid was about doubled. He acted quite insulted that I wouldn't know just how much better his parts were and implied they were all but unavailable at big box stores. literally doubling what I expected to pay was quite a shock to say the least. It is what it is. If I was able to do it myself, I would've. Live and learn Learn a trade kids lol

I recently had an unfortunate situation, at my home, where I found my tank water heater, was…read moreleaking out of the bottom, into the overflow reservoir, and out the overflow pipe, into the yard, at a rather heavy rate. It was near emergency status, because if it gave way, and increased flow, it would have flooded part of my home and my garage. With this information in mind, I took to Yelp to get information and bids from licensed plumbers in my area, that could assist me ASAP. I was very clear in my request and stated that I would most likely need immediate service, even though it was a late Friday afternoon and upcoming weekend. I received notification immediately from Clear and Present Plumbing, and began messaging back in forth with David, the owner. He was very professional and thoughtful in his communication, and patient with my barrage of questions. I did receive other communication from some other local, and nationally recognized companies, while speaking with David, but their responses felt generic and not as genuine. I mentioned to David that several of my neighbors had used his services before, and mentioned the company on our Facebook neighborhood page, so I felt very comfortable doing business with them based off of that. We agreed on the time it would be done, and the set cost of the services. The pricing was extremely competitive, especially since I was receiving "after hours" service. David offered me several payment and financing options, as well, which was refreshing. I was advised that his licensed plumber Travis, would be reaching out to me at a specific time frame, on Saturday. Travis contacted me ahead of schedule and advised me he was on the way to complete my project. Travis arrived with a clean work vehicle, uniform, and positive attitude. He completed the work quickly, with competency and respect for my property. He tested that everything was working properly, and cleaned up after himself. I would not hesitate to recommend this company, for any of your plumbing needs.

Braulio has helped me twice in ways that speak volumes about the integrity of his business…read more The first call was about low water pressure. He came out, spent a few minutes assessing, and told me straight up that low pressure is endemic to our neighborhood--no plumbing work can or should be done. Meanwhile, some of my neighbors had been sold replacement filters and various "fixes" by other plumbers for the same unfixable problem. The second time, we lost hot water. He responded to my call within minutes and asked me to text photos of the water heater. He diagnosed it via text, told me the fix, and I handled it myself. Braulio didn't make a dime on either call, but he's earned his spot as my go-to plumber. Phenomenal service.

Reasonably priced for the services provided. I believe Braulio went above and beyond by showing what he found with the old heater. He provided advice on how to deal with issues in the future. Walked me through the new system, what things were different from the old system and how to flush the heater. Nobody wants to deal with repairs like this, but professionals like Braulio make the process a little easier.

If anyone is ever in need of a good plumbing service, I highly recommend Ruben's Plumbing service!…read more After 22 years of constant drain problems and alot of money spent on plumbing services to resolve it... Ruben is the only person that took the time to walk through the problem, scope the drains as well as snaked out to clean the drains... verses just doing minimal needed to get water flowing again and charge $300. He found the culprit (short story - it was a 22 year old sponge) and managed to knock it lose pushing it out to the city drain. I am so grateful to have this issue resolved. oh - and in the process we discovered the last plumber working on my drain glued the cleanout lid shut. Not cool - but Ruben finally got it off. https://www.rubensplumbingservices.com/

He responded to my inquiry in minutes, gave me an estimate over the phone, and got me the toilet I wanted cheaper and quicker than if I'd gone through Home Depot (would have taken a month to show up and I literally had no toilet). Him and his crew showed up on time, were super polite, efficient, and even cleaned up a mess that wasn't their fault! They did a beautiful job. They turned a horribly stressful situation into a wonderful one. I highly recommend and am so thankful I found them.

He arrived at 10:45am and fixed everything and cleaned everything up and was out by 11:45am. Justin is very professional, knowledgeable, and provides excellent customer service.

Dewey and Stephen were friendly, professional and super knowledgeable. They completed the work at a reasonable price. The guys addressed my leaking shower and when I inquired about my boiler, which had recently sprung a leak and was giving out, Stephen offered to take care of it the same day. In my mind I expected this kind of repair to drag on at least a few days but nope! Stephen got the old one out and a brand new one in along with fixing the shower in a few hours. By the time he left my shower was back to normal and the boiler was already producing hot water. Very happy with these guys, I'll be sure to give them another ring if anything comes up in the future.

My neighbor called to tell me that water was bubbling out near the sidewalk around 3p. WTCPUA emergency was out within 10 minutes of the call to turn off the water. From reading reviews on Timmon's both here and Nextdoor, we called around 4p. At 6:30 the next morning, he had a crew at our door. They didn't start for about an hour, not sure why, but they were helpful and kind. Within a few hours, they repaired the problem and another call to WTCPUA got the water back on shortly after. I couldn't tell you from comparison what the value was, but we felt that the quality and timeliness was with what we paid. I would absolutely call them when we need plumbing assistance.
