Jimmy came out to our house today to fix a leak in our main water line. He was on time, professional and reasonable. It's really nice to have found plumbers we can trust. We're having them back for more projects in the near future. Thank you, Jimmy! Kalie read more

3 months after the completion of a "whole house re-pipe" I have pipes that "clunk" after the toilet is flushed! Obviously the pipes were not properly secured to the studs when replaced. That could be due in part to the employees smelling like they had just finished smoking pot, and weren't sure which way was up. Not only that, the stopper in the sink (simple job) that was replaced doesn't work anymore. How can you pay a "professional" plumbing outfit $25,000 to do a job like this and end up with such issues? I can't recommend Mako plumbing and would think twice before calling them. Looking back now, it seems as though they used a "rag-tag" team of people for employees who don't know how to properly do their jobs. Is that because they used their lunch time to get high? Make a better decision than I did - Skip Mako plumbing!!! read more

I needed help with a huge problem and Mako was quick to respond to my call. He was able to fit me in and give me a detailed idea of the problem and even showed me the camera visual of the pipes to help explain what was going on. He also even gave me some really good ideas for a different project I need to tackle down the road and was even considering how best to protect the plants and trees near the pipes, which are normally just casualties of the situation. He was also extremely upfront and reasonable with all of the pricing!! And on a side note, he even spoke very well of another plumber that I was getting a quote from and I think that speaks volumes about his character in putting people over business. All to say, I highly recommend Mako!! read more

Shoutout to Roger Harlan for his honesty and standing by integrity! I found this company on yelp and read local plumber Reddit threads that they give reasonable priced quotes and their work is reliable. In the process of selling my home, I was told the master bedroom drain was slow and the dishwasher loop needed to be fixed so I spoke with Jimmy and made a service appointment. No upfront scheduling fees, and I was given a fair quote for the estimated work to fix the two items. Come the day of the service appointment, Roger updated me on his ETA, showed up at the confirmed time, and looked at everything. The honesty comes in where he confirmed there was nothing to fix really and explained that the dishwasher loop would require an air intake valve which meant cutting through the granite counter and he ran the dishwasher which ran just fine. All this to say, I could have had another company charge me just for the visit and for a fake fix but not Mako! Roger went the extra mile to write me a report invoice of $0 explaining his inspection. This is the epitome of integrity. Happy to write this review to express my gratitude! If I was keeping the house, I'd keep Mako as my go-to plumber and will still be sure to pass along this name to our neighborhood community Facebook group. Thank you again for coming out and being truthful to the situation without charging me any extra $0.01 than I needed to pay. read more

I was melting down the other day after the sprinkler tech left because I thought maybe there were leaks because I could hear dripping and popping sounds in the walls. Roger came out right away and put my fears to rest when he determined there were no leaks. He also ran a general inspection of our home's pipes. He pointed out that our water heater was 22 years old (!), which no one else had mentioned when we had the house inspected. Anyway -- all that at no charge! Mako is our forever plumber. With service like that, I couldn't be any happier. read more

5 stars for sure, I called and Roger came out within the hour to give me estimate. I had a quote by the afternoon and an appointment to replace my water heater the next day. The two gentlemen that came. We're friendly and on time (which is very much appreciated) I had three estimates and they were the only ones not pushing me towards what I didn't want. They were also a reasonable price. I will definitely recommend them to friends and use them again if needed. read more

The Mako team is responsive, honest, knowledgeable, and personable. I wouldn't think twice about calling them again for any plumbing needs.

My review is more like a 4.5 star experience, but Yelp doesn't let half stars happen. I met Roger (plus one) and Trevor at the property to do some hydrojetting. They were nice, but they were late due to their previous job. I did stay and watch the whole process. The camera was attempted once on the main area of concern during the process but not after the hydrojetting. Also, for some reason, the hydrojet line couldn't go completely through the pvc pipe. The water flow improved to the front, but it's not completely unclogged. The water continues to sit in the French drain pipes. Is it because of a negative slope or continued blockage? We didn't really hydrojet much on the other drains because there was a concern about the line getting caught. Overall, it wasn't a complete solution to my problem, but it's a step forward. read more

I am extremely satisfied with the work that Roger did! He went above and beyond. Not only did he de-clog our drain, but he checked all of our toilets and even helped us with our fountain pump! He made time to come out first thing in the morning, which I greatly appreciate. He was also the most reasonably priced company compared to all the other quotes that I received. He arrived promptly at 9 AM and got the job done. Thank you so much! read more

Mako Plumbing and Sewer is amazing!!! After another plumbing company (Drain Time) told us we needed an $18,000 trenchless sewer replacement, we decided to get a second opinion. Calling Mako turned out to be one of the best decisions we've made. Roger arrived at our home within 30 minutes, carefully inspected everything, explained exactly what he was seeing, and confirmed that our sewer line was actually in good condition. He successfully hydro jetted the line, completely cleared the blockage, and solved the problem for $650. Roger was professional, knowledgeable, honest, and never once tried to upsell us on work we didn't need! It's beyond refreshing to find a company that values integrity as much as technical expertise. If you need a plumber, skip the guesswork and call Mako Plumbing and Sewer. They've earned my trust, and they'll be the first company I call for any plumbing needs in the future. read more

I needed help for a leaky faucet. My daughter recommended this company. Roger, Trevor and Gage arrived quickly. They were very efficient, friendly, and customer service oriented. Plus, they were very reasonably priced. I will definitely use them again. read more

Mako has been all around great, but I most appreciate the amazing communication. They met with me twice before the project started to ensure we were aligned on expectations. We set a date, they let me know when they'd arrive, and they stuck to those times! Each day we'd discussed the work to be done to account for any changes and ensure proper execution. Project completed within expected timeline and budget. Very happy with all the work and the overall experience. Also noteworthy, they did a great job cleaning up after themselves. Very thorough, already have them scheduled to come back for more work. read more

Sent out a request for a quote in Yelp and not only were they quick to respond, I had a chance to actually TALK to someone. Chris was able to schedule a visit the next day. I valued their family owned status and free quotes which I received verbally the same day as the visit. I had them verify water lines to the washer (which Roger was able to do on the spot) and change out water valves to the shower in my condo. Though it took a while to receive the quote via email to pay, I appreciated that they continued to expeditiously proceed with the service. I'll keep Mako Plumbing as my go-to for any future service on my condo! read more

Mako Plumbing helped me replace the old water heater. You can tell they are organized and professional from how they respond to requests. On the appointment day, Chris showed up on time. The finished work looks good. The new unit is working as it should. I have no complaints. If you need help, give Mako a try. read more

Mako repaired an upstairs leaking toilet that caused damage to the ceiling below. The plumber explained the issue, and replaced the wax toilet ring that caused the leak. He even offered a referral for someone to repair the drywall on the ceiling below. He explained what the issues were at every step and left everything super clean both in the bathroom and the laundry room below. I have found my new plumber. read more

Received an almost immediate response from the owner. He came over on time and diagnosed the problem right away. He is very professional and trustworthy. I will be using him for anything else plumbing-related that comes up and recommend him. read more

10/10 company to work with! There is no need to get quotes from anyone else. They have very competitive prices and are always ready to help. I knew to call them after having a great experience with them last year for our bathroom project. Our water heater just unexpectedly stopped working and we used them to do a replacement for us. Every time they have been to the house they have been a joy to work with! read more

They gave me a a very prompt response with very good availability and a reasonable price

Great job! I was in a hurry with no water for 4 days and Chris showed up at 8am the very next day after I phoned them Great job and reasonably priced and pointed out why I might need more work in a year or two - this was more of a patch up job from house valve to City mains and that galvanized steel pipe is at "end of life " ( I'm not there yet myself !) Pipe buried under cement ( and tree roots ) didn't help read more

Water was flowing out of our main water line box, and it was a crack on the line going to our property. I contacted Mako and they came out that evening to fix the issue. Jimmy and Chris did a great job identifying the problem and how to fix it. I also enjoyed talking to them while they fixed the pipes. I will call them for all plumbing needs going forward based on the integrity, workmanship, and value they bring to their work. read more

Mako was wonderful for not only performing a sewer inspection prior to our home purchase, but also installing for installing a new cleanout and replacing our old cast iron and asbestos pipe. Will definitely use them again when we're ready to remodel our kitchen and bathrooms! read more

Jimmy and Chris were great! Called on a weekend and they came to assess the problem within an hour of me calling (they were out with family but that didn't stop them from stopping by). They came back the next morning and fixed the leak, cleaned up the workspace and were reasonably priced. Thanks again, Jimmy and Chris, for the quick and professional work. read more

We got a quote from Mako Plumbing , ultimately we did not end up using their services but they were so professional and their quote was reasonable . They were very honest and if we did need any plumbing needs in the future we would not hesitate to call them ! read more

Roger was great! My house had a sewer backup, and I had a plumber clear it, but it clogged again within 24 hours. The plumber was not available. So I called Mako Plumbing, and Roger was able to come immediately, even though it was after hours. Roger cleared the clog, diagnosed its root cause, and provided a detailed proposal. Though we didn't use Mako for the final job of replacing the cleanout, only because I had already paid a lot to the first plumber for the first cleanout, and he agreed to credit me toward the work. I highly recommend Mako Plumbing, and will definitely use them for my next plumbing needs. Mako Plumbing is professional and trustworthy! read more

These guys were great! Had them install a new sink and garbage disposal. Quality work, they had to tweak somethings and do a little more than was originally expected to make it all work and they went above and beyond! They even came and did a follow up visit just to tighten and adjust! Will definitely be using them for all our plumbing needs! read more

Great person who came and helped us and a great company. Arrived on time and fixed the problem fast. Showed me pictures from inside the pipe so I could understand what the problem had been. Highly recommend them to others. Update: Had some additional work done at the same location and again Mako's service was top notch. They are the ones that I would recommend to friends and family. read more

Amazing! Business was responsive and very accommodating. Roger came out to our main line back up and worked his magic to help clear our clog, I will use this business again and would recommend calling for a quote, very reasonable price as well read more

I cannot recommend these guys enough. We had them come out as our dishwasher wasn't working and the entire bottom of our sink was just a plumbing mess. They walked us through everything wrong, we didn't feel as though they were trying to up charge, but were honest and affordable with the repairs we needed. They were professional, friendly and everything works great. It's hard to find honest work these days and this small business really earned our trust and future projects. Thanks again guys! read more

We are beyond grateful for Mako Plumbing and everything they've done for our family. From day one, their team has shown up with professionalism, integrity, and most importantly--heart. While the job isn't finished yet, we felt compelled to share how amazing they've already been throughout this process. My mom is on a fixed income, and finding contractors who are not only understanding of that but willing to work with her budget with patience and respect is incredibly rare. Mako Plumbing never made us feel like an inconvenience. In fact, they've treated this job--and my mom--with the kind of care you'd hope to receive from family. They've answered every question, worked around our schedule, and even went the extra mile to coordinate with other contractors when needed. It's been such a relief to have them by our side during what could have been a stressful process. Their honesty, transparency, and true kindness have made all the difference. We are so thankful for their willingness to help and their commitment to making sure things are done right, not rushed. Knowing we have a plumbing company that actually cares means the world to us. If you're looking for a team you can trust, who treats you like more than just another job--Mako Plumbing is it. We wholeheartedly recommend them, and we're truly thankful from the bottom of our hearts. (Miko) = Melanie read more

Mako Plumbing is outstanding! After dealing with a couple of other plumbing companies over the past three years--and being really disappointed with the service--I am so grateful to have found Mako Plumbing. Their professionalism and customer service were exceptional from start to finish. They offered reasonable pricing, communicated clearly, and most importantly, they actually fixed the problem. I'm incredibly thankful for their work and won't hesitate to call them again. Highly recommend! read more

I strongly advise against using Mako Plumbing and Sewers. They install inferior product (American Standard, typically used for DIY projects) and charge a higher rate for it. Their business is unprofessional and breached their duty to perform work in accordance to industry standards. Timeline of Events: 1/4/25: I contacted Mako for a water heater installation. Despite requesting an invoice and payment terms, they claimed they couldn't send one and insisted on payment immediately after job completion. I did let them know I am abroad traveling at this time and can make a full payment upon my return on 1/13/25. 1/5/25: The job was completed, but due to time zone differences (I was traveling internationally), I missed their call for payment. 1/6/25: I finally received an invoice, which their policy clearly stated a $50/day late fee for non-payment. I accepted this condition and planned to pay in full upon my return on 1/13/25 with no problem. 1/8/25: Without any communication, the plumbers showed up to the property making false claims to the renters that the water heater was recalled, gained access to the property, and uninstalled the unit. Chris and his team then called me, aggressively demanding an additional $500 on top of the agreed price, stating the new total was $2,900 if I wanted to keep the unit. Chris and his team used intimidation and coercion in an attempt to extort me for more money. Moral of the story is using hostility and intimidation WILL NOT get you far in life or business. On the same day I fired Mako Plumbing, I hired another professional plumber who installed a superior water heater (Bradford which is only sold to and installed by licensed professional plumbers) at a much lower cost ($1,700). The new plumbers installed it much neater and more securely than Mako Plumbing. This was a blessing in disguise. Thankfully, I found a reliable plumber to correct their misconduct, installed a better product and at a much cheaper cost. I cannot recommend Mako Plumbing and Sewer to anyone seeking professional service. read more

Roger went above and beyond in providing excellent customer service. He was responsive and honest in his assessment. He made a high stress call much more comfortable and shared his experiences for how issues like ours were addressed in the past. He followed up with us afterward to make sure there wasn't more that he could help us with. Highly recommended, trust worthy, and customer focused. Thanks Roger! read more

I hired Mako to replace/retrofit the leaking water manifold located in my garage. They were easy to schedule, showed up on time, worked quickly, communicated well, and cleaned up completely when finished. The completed price was reasonable and was as estimated. I recommend them and will hire them again as needed. read more

Jimmy and Roger were great. Thanks for coming out and checking out my issue within 24hrs. Highly recommend as do a few of my neighbors. Big or small this is the company for the job! read more

Roger was fast and responsive. Came over and figured out the issue on my clogged sewer system. Very knowledgable and fixed the issues and recommended ways to prevent further issues. Used the camera and showed me what he was seeing. Great value for the service read more

These guys are aweome. I called thqt morning to have a water heater put back into our rental house. They answered the phone and stated that they would be able to come out later that day when they finished another job. They got there about 3 pm and put the water heater back in. They are super friendly and told me what was needed for the water heater without being pushy. I can't say enough about the service that was provided. I will be using them indefinitely. Their prices are affordable. I highly recommend them. read more

Got a quick response after I reached out. Very reasonably priced especially compared to quotes from other local plumbers. Roger was here when he said he would be and was fixed our issue quickly. I appreciate his professionalism we will definitely reach out to Mako for any plumbing issues going forward. read more

One of the few businesses that actually gave me an estimate with my request. Explained everything they were doing in the process of completing the job. Arrived on time and answered all of our questions concerning any future work. read more

We recently worked with Mako Plumbing and I highly recommend them! Their level of transparency was extremely comforting when it comes to things like plumbing when a lot of us are clueless about this stuff. Long story short I was getting a second opinion from them and was ready to pay for a "fix". They let me know my worries were overblown and the issues another party had pointed out to me were unwarranted. They then gave me some quick pointers on what to look out for and how to even fix another small thing on my own! This company rocks and I highly recommend them! read more
