Mark answered the phone at 745am on a Sunday, was in the van and at my house within 30mins. Unclogged my sewer line......problem solved, back to enjoying my day. What more could you ask for. read more

My dining room had a ceiling drip--shower upstairs. I feared great time and expense but luckily found Stephens. They are everything you hope for in contractors. They fully explored the issue and found the answers in the most cost-effective way possible. Character and talent--thats a blend one can only hope for. And I got it. I loveeee theses guys and am passing their number everywhere. read more

Reading all these 5 star reviews does not surprise me in the least! I have had Stephen and his assistant come twice now in the last 15 months to clean out my main sewer line. As all the others have said - they are quick, to the point and know what they are doing at a reasonable cost! They even took the time to advise me on the "lateral" sewer line replacement program and provided a referral for the obvious replacement that is in my future. Look no further - these are the plumbers you need to call for responsive, honest, fair and professional service! read more

Have used Mark a number of times. He shows up promptly, does a really good job and is honest. He charges a flat fee an hour whether he is there for 15 minutes or an hour. I find him efficient and trustworthy, and will always call him when I have a problem read more

I highly recommend David from Stephen Plumbing Services. I asked them to come and consult about the damage left by another plumber who came to unclog my toilet, and they provided great advice how to solve this issue. read more

The owner, Mark, showed up at my house on a Saturday night to snake the sewer. The equipment would not fit into my very small bathroom so he started calling other plumbers to see if they had smaller equipment that would do the job. He spent hours trying to help me AND did not charge me. Great guy. There is a reason he gets great rating, he deserves them. read more

Okay, it was only the garbage disposal but the service level was excellent. Arrived on time, fair priced & experience showed as it took the plumber 45 minutes from start to finish (he had the new disposal on his truck). Thank you & I'm pleased to find a credible plumber. read more

Mark and Mike came to fix a clogged drain line. The price was reasonable, they showed up when promised, and got the job done right. I haven't had any problems since, and it has been a few months. You really can't go wrong with Stephen Plumbing! read more

I own a handyman business in San Mateo and Mark has worked on numerous jobs over the past 6 years. I can't express in words, how great he really is. He always answers the phone or returns my calls within minutes and always shows up on time, which in my business is just as important as the quality. His work is the greatest and his prices are more than competitive.. read more

Mark came over within a half hour of phone call and fixed 2 items. The 3rd item was unfixable and so he refunded the entire charge. I felt I owed him for at least coming over and doing 2 out of 3 repairs, but he insisted on refunding the entire amount. What more can you ask of customer service? read more

Very nice, responsive and helped us diagnose our toilet issue very quickly. Gave lots of information on things we can do to get a better flush. Would use again and recommend. read more

My kitchen plumbing clogged, then the rusted pipe broke open. Mark was quick with the work and first class work it is. The previous pipe set up was done by a handy man that didn't know what he was doing. During the leak test we noticed the garbage disposal had a cracked housing and was leaking. 30 minutes later mark had a new disposal installed and the job was finished. Very friendly, and very skilled with no B.S. I highly recommend. I'm going to remodel my Kitchen and bathroom with new sinks, dishwasher, fridge, tub & toilet and I'm having Mark do all the plumbing. read more

I was really impressed with Mark. I had an issue on a Sunday morning. He picked up the phone right away, asked some questions to make sure he could help and then came out an hour or so later. He performed a temporary fix on the spot and came back the next day to complete the job when he could get the parts he needed. All this was done at a very reasonable price. He was very personable to boot. All and all I was extremely pleased with the service provided. read more

I couldn't be happier with the service I received from Stephen Plumbing. The problem was quickly and efficiently diagnosed and fixed. Within an hour it was business as usual in my home. I would recommend this plumbing service to anyone. This company is a gem and will be the one I call, in the future, should I need any additional plumbing work. Thank you so very much! read more

Thank you for the referral - you got us a great plumber on a day you weren't available. I appreciate it so much!

Mark is a great plumber and came right away when I was panicking with a late night shower incident. I would recommend he be your go to guy for all plumbing needs. read more

These guys deserve all the positive reviews. They came out same day, were flexible with time, fixed the problem (clogged trunk line) and had some great advice. read more

Prompt, professional, fair, courteous, honest. I had two conversations before they came out. In both cases, I did not reach them on the first call, but they returned my call within a half hour. I had a slow drip on the valve of the water service line into the house, and it was not urgent work. We scheduled time for the fix, they showed up on time, and gave a free estimate before starting the work. They ran into some difficulties using the parts I provided them, but they did not charge me anything additional to work around the problems. They were still able to finish in the amount of time they allotted for the job. Thanks Gents! read more

I found Stephen Plumbing through Yelp. My garbage disposal started leaking. I called and they were able to come immediately, but ended up scheduling for later that day that worked better for my schedule. They were on time, knowledgeable and friendly. They replaced it for a reasonable price. They even assisted tightening another faucet. I will definitely use them again. read more

Amazing plumber! I found Mark while scanning through yelp, and I hit the jackpot. Needed an emergency plumber very quickly, and as soon as I left him a message, he called me back. He said he would be at my home in about a half an hour, and he was true to his word. He fixed my problems with my toilets, all the while explaining what happened to them, and giving me pointers on how to fix minor problems. As long as he was there, I had him fix a few minor things on my sinks, and redid my faucet in the kitchen. He even told me I was using the wrong brand of toilet paper, and explained the reasons for that as well. He's fast, very knowledgeable, and most pleasant. I would give him six stars if I could! read more

Mark helped us out in a pinch and went the extra mile to take care of an 'emergency' situation just prior to the holiday. I called the people we usually use, no one would help but Mark went out of his way and was more reasonable than the company we usually use. I would do more than 5 stars if that were possible. Fantastic work!!!!!! read more

After getting a high estimate for a toilet line unclog, I called Stephen to set up an appointment based upon a recommendation from a Friend. He said that He would work me in early the next morning. He arrived promptly at the arranged time and was finished within an hour. I might add that He and his Associate were very careful with regard to moving a large auger over the interior flooring of the home, getting the line cleared, clean-up and finishing the job with ease and speed. read more

Stephen Plumbing Services is everything you want in a plumber, from start to finish. Work guaranteed. Answers phone or calls back in a timely fashion. Makes appointment and comes at the agreed upon time. Once he and his helper are on the job, they are focused and clearly knowledgeable about how to solve problem. They snaked my kitchen sink and it ran clear. However, a week later, it clogged again. Mark returned to house and spent nearly an hour snaking kitchen drain line until it ran clear - at NO cost! He stood behind his work. Bonus: He gives humorous explanations about what is wrong using everyday metaphors that homeowners can understand. Stephen Plumbing is my GO-TO now. read more

I'm a General Contractor and Handyman. I frequently use Mark and refer him weekly to my clients. Not once has he let me down.

This is the second time I have had Stephen Plumbing Services to my home after several not so wonderful and expensive repairs from other local contractors. Same day service as the last time time - five star like the last time - but here is the unbelievable thing - the two slow draining sinks needed little repair when he arrived - haven't a clue why but he said - sinks fine now no charge! That's a wow in my book! Thanks Stephen!! read more

We had a 9pm emergency flooding issue around our mainline last week, and we contacted Stephen Plumbing after reading the wonderful reviews on Yelp. Our experience was equally as fantastic. He came to our San Mateo home within a 1/2 hour of the call, and was able to determine, in the dark amid a flood of dirty water, what the problem was and what would need to be fixed. He also ascertained that it was not a true emergency, and that the fix could wait for the next day. He is very personable, knowledgable, and professional. I would highly recommend Stephen Plumbing when you need expert help! read more

Different problem...drain started backing up. Of course I called the guys that provided me 5 stars last time around. Chances are if you call a guy that provides 5 stars, you get 5 star service the next time. They found the problem within a few minutes. One guy went to work on the backed up drain, the other guy started working on installing a new garbage disposal unit that I had purchased already. All done within 45 minutes. Great price. These guys are thorough, fast, honest and also very nice. There is a reason why these guys have 5 star ratings 100% of the time. Thanks a bunch for the second time. read more

Stephen Plumbing was the service provider that saved our holiday week. With guests expected and a leaky toilet, we called several plumbers before we reached Mark. He was kind enough to fit us into his busy schedule. He arrived right on time and was efficient and considerate. We will definitely call Stephen Plumbing again. read more

Stephen plumbing was absolutely fantastic! We called them after getting screwed over by another plumbing company. After being told we had to jack hammer up our entire bathroom floor, Mark came by, assessed the situation, showed us why & how the other company was wrong. He also gave us an incredibly reasonable estimate. He was flexible, funny & kind. When he came back to do the work, he was professional, efficient & fixed the problem immediately (no jack hammering!). And his bill came in lower than his estimate- I couldn't have asked for more. We will be trusting him with all of our plumbing needs & feel lucky to have found him. Thanks Mark! read more

He was here in about an hour from my call about a faucet he had repaired in January that was starting to drip. He fixed it at no charge! He also provided me with excellent answer concerning two items I was look at, instant hot water heater and whole house water filter. He will be the first person I will call when I need plumbing help. read more

I agree with previous posters, good company. They showed up when they said they would, did the job efficiently, and for a very reasonable price. Would absolutely use them again. read more

It was a great experience having Stephen Plumbing to repair/replace my toilet's broken water supply line, which is part of so called "single piece angle stop and supple line". The repair requires shut-off of main water line to the condo building where I live (a very small 2-story building), to comply with our HOA's strict rules/guidelines, I called around to find reliable and licensed plumbers for the job. Fortunately, I found Stephen Plumbing, and, with a very competitive price quote. Mark came in, obviously, he is very good at what he's doing, and everything was done in 30 min, very well and very cleanly! Highly recommended! read more

Excellent service from Mark (Stephen) and Mike. Called SPS around Noon and left a message briefly describing my plumbing problem, a water leak inside a bedroom wall. Within a few minutes, Mark called me back and mentioned he could be over in thirty minutes. Thirty minutes later, he showed up, confirmed the diagnosis w/ Mike under the house in the crawl space, and made the repair in a friendly and professional manner. The repair fee seemed reasonable for the work done. Even my nosey/friendly neighbor came over to check it out during the repair and asked for a Mark's card. I would definitely recommend Stephen Plumbing Services. read more

OK. They do not make them like this guy, he is a superhero. This is the 3rd time we have used Stephen Plumbing and he has always been on time, quick, efficient, not to mention reasonable and honest. He is truly blessed with his craft. He' got a sense of humor too! I will tell all my homeowner friends. read more

I am so thankful to have found a reliable and trustworthy local plumber! I first used Stephen Plumbing Services to modify my laundry area for a gas dryer I had purchased (not realizing I had the electrical hookup). He told me over the phone that it sounded like something I could get a handyman to do for a lower rate, but he provided an estimate nonetheless. Since he had such great Yelp reviews, I hired him for the job, and the work cost less than his estimate. He would have earned five stars just for that, but a couple weeks later, I was trying to adjust the water level in my toilet and wound up doing something that caused it to stop refilling. I called him at 6:23 pm on a Saturday night of a long holiday weekend. He answered the phone, came over, fixed the toilet, answered all my questions, and was on his way, all in under 25 minutes! I hadn't heard of a plumbing superhero before, but now I know where to find him: Stephen Plumbing Services! read more

Mark is awesome! 1st time I used him, I had leaks under 2 sinks. I called other plumbers, who tried to diagnose over the phone or they said they'd charge to come by to diagnose and they would have to come another day. I found Stephen Plumbing on Yelp, called them, and Mark said he could come over in 1/2 hr! He diagnosed and gave me an estimate free of charge! Of course, I went with him, and he did a great job installing 2 new faucets, and with a reasonable charge. Few months later, my toilet leaked. I called Mark, who again, came right over. I really appreciate his consistently quick service! He diagnosed the problem and then unfortunately, a new crack appeared in the tank while Mark was handling the toilet. I had to buy another new tank. A couple days later, Mark graciously picked up the tank from the shop and installed it. And here's the kicker...He didn't charge me anything because of the whole crack issue! Mark is a man of integrity and is simply a very kind man. If you want a reliable plumber who really cares, give Stephen Plumbing a call. You won't be disappointed. read more
