Saturday morning, after 14 yrs my water heater finally tapped out and started leaking through the…read morebottom insulation and panels. Thankfully, we caught it in time!! No water or mold damage to my unit or the connecting unit.. whew...!! I messaged a few companies via yelp and some were very slow to respond (days later), but Allen's Plumbing were surprisingly instantaneous. I'm sure it was a bot at first, messaging me for heater info, but once info was submitted, Kane (Allen's rep) contacted me and started appointment process. By Sunday I was locked in for a job assessment appointment. Though there was some unplanned, uncontrollable challenges the day of assessment appointment, Kaohu (Allen's scheduler), was able to request necessary information / photo's to keep the work process moving forward. Thankfully this made things so much easier and faster. By the end of the phone call I was booked for heater replacement. Following day I received another call from financing as I chose to finance the repair instead of out of pocket.. (yes they have financing options).. they let me know that I was approved for financing and that they would furnish me with a quote. Later that day I received the quote for 3 repair options: 1) replace in kind, 2) replace entire system: heater, solar panel, circ pump, piping and valves, or 3) downsize and upgrade to hybrid system. The quote was very transparent! Cost to replace, discovery work, tax credits and even cost of equipment and valve replacements that was not included in option 1 package. I took a gamble and chose option 1 - 'replace in kind' hoping my existing equipment and valves were still good and functional. Thursday came and the technician's showed up.. I call em the 3-J's: Jonah, Jesse, and Jaren (haha). They got their tools and equipment situated and got right to work. Pulled out the old heater and installed new heater. Relocated existing pipes and circ pump to now sit on top of heater, freeing up some space in my already small/ storage less townhouse.. The team was very polite and kind, worked well with each other and very respectful with noise.. I almost forgot they were out there working lol. Anyhow, the boys got it done, left the place cleaner then I gave it to them and walked me through the install and changes before they left. Really appreciated the work they did and how professional they were. Side note: option 1) replace in kind. This option did not include circ pump, mixing valve and or controller. If my equipment didn't function correctly it would have been additional cost to me. So big gamble on my part. I'm highlighting this because the guys made every effort to inspect existing equipment and since found in good condition, did not replace it 'just to make the sale'. So I felt effort and honesty should be highlighted in this review. I really REALLY appreciate that about this company and work crew. They weren't out to take my make money. Overall.. great job to the 3-J's and admin team! I highly recommend Allen's for your next job. Mahalo for making this experience a less painful and enjoyable one. A hui hou -Happy Customer

We have used Allen's Plumbing multiple times to repair both residential and commercial leaks. They…read morehave consistently been responsive and professional over the years, albeit a little pricey, which is warranted because of their responsiveness. Today, however, was a different story. Today, Saturday at 1:00 pm, a second floor office tenant called and said a water supply pipe in the shared Women's bathroom was leaking and there was a lot of standing water on the bathroom floor. She said she shut off the supply valve but water continued to leak. I immediately called Allen's Plumbing because of their past responsiveness and repair excellence. However, their answering service took several minutes to record the service request. When giving her the address, I must have had to say and spell "Waialae" five times before she got it correct. She told me Allen's would call back in 20 minutes. They actually took 39 minutes to call back. The kicker was that after I had explained in detail to the answering service that a pipe was leaking and we needed service immediately to repair since the shutoff valve was not turning off the water, and water was all over the floor in the second floor restroom and leaking into the first floor bakery, the Allen's Plumbing nitwit who returned my call asked if I needed immediate service or could wait until a future time for their service. When I reiterated to the nitwit that the pipe was leaking and this couldn't wait for future service, he said we don't have anyone to do the repair today. I am thinking, then why the F ask if I need service immediately? So bottom line, don't call Allen's Plumbing for repair service on the weekend, or if you do, find out first if they can do a repair immediately.

I've been so pleased with their service that I've referred them several times to other people I know who have been happy to have found them as well. It's great to know that when things go wrong, I can give Louie at Oahu Rooter a call. If you're looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and fair plumber, give him a call too.

They needed to send someone out here to see it. I found this strange. I seriously just wanted the quote as their phone number was on my water heater so they would know best what to do. I knew already that this may just be a grab for money since I want the quote and I'll just take the fee. Turns out taking off and putting back on the solar panel is a big cost. What I thought would be about 1k was over 4k. A quarter of the price of my roof project. That's not the expense I thought it would be and I did this to be fair since the roofer has an upsell to remove it and place it back on. Needless to say, I'm going with the roofer's price.

I called EPS and they came out and quoted me $850 to snake the washer drain line. I explained that they had repaired it before and that I should get a discount at least. They said because that was a branch line they considered it another problem and would not discount the price. I sent them away. Steve's plumbing came and snaked out the washer line for $450.

The work was done cleanly and correctly, which gave me immediate peace of mind. I'll admit I was a little nervous about the cost at first, but it was absolutely worth it for the quality of work and the reassurance that everything was handled properly. He was prompt, professional, and very organized throughout the entire process. I also appreciated that he took the time to spot-check my water heater and share helpful maintenance insight without any pressure. I've added JGR Plumbing to my go-to list and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, honest plumbing work.

I initially reached out because I needed my unit's main water shut-off valve and my washer shut-off…read morevalve replaced. Replacing my water heater wasn't even part of the plan. But after Jaren took a careful look and walked me through what he was seeing, I decided to move forward with it--and I'm genuinely glad I did. What stood out right away was how professional, thorough, and patient Jaren was from start to finish. Like many of the Yelp reviews say, he doesn't rush, he doesn't cut corners, and he doesn't talk down to you. He took the time to answer my questions in a way I could fully understand--even as someone who knows almost nothing about plumbing. That kind of clear communication matters, because it turns a stressful situation into something manageable. And here's the part that really earned my respect: he didn't oversell. When it came to the water heater, he didn't just point to the age and say, "Replace it." He explained why it mattered, what could happen if I waited, and how upgrading certain older plastic/PVC materials to brass could save me money and headaches down the line. It wasn't pressure--it was education. It felt honest, practical, and grounded in what was best for my home. He was also incredibly flexible. On the same day he worked in my unit, the building complex was dealing with additional plumbing repairs by another company, and it created delays and coordination challenges. Still, he stayed calm and professional. He was at my place from about 8:00 AM to 6:30 PM, and while I felt bad that it was such a long day, it reassured me even more--because it was clear he wasn't rushing. He was making sure it was done right. The results speak for themselves. His work is clean, organized, and flawless, and the difference is obvious when I compare my updated plumbing setup to other units I looked at before he worked on mine. His attention to detail is on another level. I also want to give a big shout-out to Arley for her help when I first reached out to JGR Plumbing. She kept me updated, provided clear estimates, and communicated Jaren's arrival time for the initial unit check. That kind of responsiveness makes a big difference when you're trying to coordinate repairs. Finally, I have to mention the pricing: for the amount of work completed and the level of quality and professionalism Jaren delivered, the cost was very reasonable and fairly priced for this type of work. If you want a plumber who shows up with skill, integrity, and pride in their work--someone who treats your home the way they'd want theirs treated--I strongly recommend JGR Plumbing.
