Rick Tarantino runs a down to earth, TOP NOTCH plumbing company. He has helped us many times since 2010 with absolutely perfect work. He's a good guy and does a great job of assessing and explaining what his crew must do. We trust him and his guys 100%. read more

I had a pinhole leak that drove me nuts trying to find. Turned out it was caused by galvanic corrosion of a copper hot water pipe touching a steel drain pipe. The corrosion had reached a point where it weakened the pipe wall. But the leak came and went due to thermal expansion so I would sometimes find a puddle and at other times it was dry (although lately it was mostly wet). Thanks to the professionalism of the guys at Tarantino Plumbing, they found the leak and fixed it by taking out the damaged section and re-routing it so it won't happen again! They wore their masks at all times, took off their shoes when inside, and cleaned up before they left, not that they made much of any mess to begin with. Highly recommended! read more

I've had one encounter with Rick Tarantino. He came highly recommended to me by a mutual friend. my garbage disposal was 20 years old, a dinosaur. Rick knew what i needed and gave me a time slot very quickly. my experience is that he is CLEAN and efficient. I'm sure he could've stretched the timeframe but he didn't. in and out. Super guy. you won't be disappointed. read more

My water and energy bill doubled and my kitchen and bathroom floors consistently warm. After waiting a few months (due to covid) I called Rick Tarantino, he immediately knew my problem. My home is on a concrete slab and I had a hot water leak. I imagined and was told by others that I would have to jack hammer through the kitchen floor to find the leaking pipe. Nope, Rick explained that he could re route the pipe above surface through the walls. With minimal inconvenience Rick, Manny and his crew did exactly what was proposed for half the cost expected. So, when my sewer pipe broke in two places I didn't hesitate to call Rick. From prompt start to finish my dual nightmare was over. I cannot recommend this company enough for their quality, excellence and knowledge. A true gem in Marin County. read more

I can not say enough about Rick and his crew. I have used Rick for Several years, on our home and two rentals we have in Marin. Rick is reliable, timely and clean. He knows what he is doing and does the job right the first time. He is replacing a hot water heater for me right now! after a frantic call from my tenant. Thank you Rick Giag read more

Rick is the best and has done work for me over the years and have never been disappointed. I am in the trades so I know good customer service as well as quality work and Tarantino Plumbing provides it all. My water heater went out and Rick and his team where there the next day, figured out the problem and had hot water for my family in no time. I highly recommend Tarantino Plumbing as their service is excellent. read more

Sunday 5/27/18 the day before Memorial Day, I looked in my utility closet outside and discovered my 27 yr. old water heater was dripping from top and bottom with what looked like rusty drip marks down it! I called and left Rick a frantic message. He called and advised he'd be at my house on Memorial Day at 8am...and here he was at 7:45am! He looked at the area, that was drenched in water and said he thought he had a new water heater at his shop. He went to his shop and confirmed that the new water heater would be here & it was at 9ish am! The workers had the new water heater beautifully installed by 11:30am and hot water was up again a while later. I was sooo impressed by all this getting done in a few hrs. on a holiday. Much thanks to Rick and his workers for their speedy but perfect installation, it is appreciated. read more

Fantastic! Simply FANTASTIC! We had a kitchen line back up into the garage due to old degraded galvanized pipes. I brought in another (large) local plumbing company who has fancy vans and seems to advertise everywhere. They gave me a extremely high estimate for one day's worth of work. I called Tarantino Plumbing, based on a recommendation from a friend, and scheduled them to complete the work. Over the phone they quoted me significantly less than the big guys for the same amount of work. They showed up on time the day of the install and did very good work. When I asked for the final bill is was EVEN LOWER than the one they quoted me on the phone! They were responsive, effective, and trustworthy. I'll definitely use Tarantino Plumbing. read more

Nothing worse than making an appointment and having to miss work and stay home to meet the plumber - then not having him show up. Incredibly disrespectful and unprofessional. Giving Rick the benefit of the doubt - I called him to see if things were "okay" and to "reschedule"; and never got a response. I had used them previously and their work was great. So, called yet again, left another message - and they did NOT call me back. That's just rude. read more

I thought he was the best, having worked with him before, however one of the leaks he 'fixed' created another. I called Rick and he promised to be out the next morning but he never showed or returned any of my phone calls. But I DID receive the bill 2 days after the incomplete work. I waited to pay because I expected a phone call, never received one so I paid the bill anyway. Very disappointed in his work and lack of professionalism and now will have to hire another plumber to fix his mistake. I highly advise to go elsewhere with your business. read more

Rick showed up on time and more-or-less fixed my problem. He used a part that wasn't quite right that he happened to have on his truck and charged double what it would cost anywhere else. He was here for 5-10 minutes and billed for an hour, with no prior mention of a minimum service charge. The faucet works, though pressure is now excessive because of the wrong part, but I feel totally ripped off on the bill. read more

While living in Marin, for 20+ years we've relied on Rick for all our plumbing needs. He's been great. He is willing to troubleshoot problems to find the solution. He knows what to look for. He's resourceful. His prices are fair. He works hard. He even let me call him while he was on vacation to discuss an issue (so we could be ready for his visit when he returned). Not surprisingly, I've long recommended him to anyone who'll listen. read more

Rick (and his) team are fantastic.....I have used his team several times. ALWAYS the job was done well, at a fair price, and with outstanding customer service and responsiveness. He and his team are very innovative at solving difficult plumbing issues and I am very appreciative of his service. I would never use another plumber after finding Rick. read more

This is a great family owned plumbing company! Rick Tarantino went above and beyond to repair my water heater. He spent a lot of time and energy resolving the issue. He was so kind and explained the problem and the solution to me very clearly. He will make an appointment to fit your schedule and he is easy to reach. Rick is very smart and is a delight to be around. I highly recommend Tarantino Plumbing! read more

Manny and Martin were prompt, quiet, efficient, and even went above and beyond by installing my shower filter for me! Thank you so much! You won't regret choosing them. I have an indoor cat too and I didn't even have to put him in his kennel too. read more

We have used Rick for many years. He came out today to make did some minor repairs, which he did quickly and at minimal cost. He also made long-term suggestions which we will implement. Rick is just a pleasure to deal with. read more

I was referred to Rick by the HOA manager of a rental unit for a sewer line leak. Rick showed up promptly and fixed the line and repaired the deck boards that he had to remove to access it. Nice work! read more

I wish I could say he was the best. Good and fair prices, but no follow ups on issues like a leak, tankless flushing maintenance, pressure issues. Sorry Rick. read more

Rick Tarantino is hands down the best plumber you can find! I had several issues with my plumbing and being a single woman living on my own, I was quoted very high prices. My instinct told me that I was being taken advatage of and asked my network for a referral. I was given to Rick Tarantino and I could not be happier. I finally was estimated a true cost and they came in and did the work perfectly and quickly. They saved me thousands of dollars (literally) from false quotes and did the best job I have seen. You can trust these guys and they do the best job out there. What more can you ask for!? read more

I can't say enough about what a great experience it was dealing with Rick Tarantino. We have a home warranty. Before meeting Rick, we first called the the plumber the warranty co said we had to call. From beginning to end things went horribly (for example he got in an argument with our neighbor over parking) and in the end we were told major work would need to be done. Based upon a referral from a neighbor, I decided to give up on the warranty plumber and pay outside of the warranty. I called Rick from work. He said he could handle it right away so he waited at my house until I could make it home from work. 10 minutes after getting to my house he diagnosed the problem, replaced the part (no major work) and the emergency was fixed. He went out of his way to get me parts I still needed for the non emergency issues,deal with a few other problems we had at our house and followed up by coming back to finish the job promptly once the parts were in. He was professional, fast, knowledgeable, careful and courteous. I have confidence I now have someone to call for any plumbing issue in the future. read more

I've used Rick for every plumbing situation I've confronted over the last 8 years, after flirtations with many other local plumbers.

I recommend him without reservation, both for emergency fixes and for upgrades and other pluming work. read more

Great job; Rick showed up promptly to fix a leaking shower valve in our Novato home, and will be returning to repair our faucets. Top-notch guy who's easy to work with and does it right the first time! read more

True pro's!!!! I am a kitchen & bath designer and KNOW how important it is to get the job done right the first time. Everyone I have referred to them has come back to thank me and tell me how great the work was and how impressed they were. I have also used them personally so I speak from my own experience as well. read more

I've used Tarantino Plumbing for a couple of jobs now and have been very satisfied with the customer service and work provided. Last issue was a leaky faucet that was so very old. Part was extremely hard to find. Rick made several calls, went beyond the call of duty in trying to obtain a replacement valve that would work with this faucet. Finally got it fixed and saved me a whole lot of money. Would highly recommend using Tarantino Plumbing. read more
