After 32 years, my hot water heater finally failed and sent water flowing across my garage floor. I called American Home Shield, and they assigned me Titan Plumbing, who could not come for more than a week. I complained and escalated my service request specifically for Van Allen Plumbing, with whom I'd worked many times in the past. Martin arrived in less than 24 hrs and turned off hot water heater's main water and gas lines. He confirmed the 1992 unit was kaput and sent confirmation for a new hot water heater w/all code upgrades required to pass permit inspection. He drained the water heater and swept the standing water out of my garage to create a safe surface to walk on. This was very important, bc I'd just had a total hip replacement and was cautioned to avoid slippery surfaces. I'm happy to report Gabe and Roman installed a new water heater that passed City of Reno permit inspection in less time than it would've taken the other guys just come out to inspect the old one. Once again, Van Allen Plumbing came to the rescue, and I could not be happier! read more

Van Allen plumbing replaced my water heater. I needed a new water heater so we called Van Allen plumbing. Gabe was fantastic. He showed up on time and ready to work. He is fast and efficient with the great work ethics. I couldn't be happier. Van Allen plumbing went above and beyond to get us a water heater at a time when they were not available, due to supply warehouse being closed. I was impressed with the this company they were fair in price and took care of a problem that I had been dealing with way too long. Thank you Gabe for being so professional and exceptional in your craft. I will definitely be using you again for all my plumbing needs. I highly recommend Van Allen plumbing, tell a friend. read more

The short story is this company fixed my plumbing issue quickly, in the range of the estimate, and got the city off my back. The long story is they kept me updated regularly, showed up and progressed as stated, provided benchmarks to the city on correction and remediation, and handled the work and business honestly and with integrity. I would recommend Wallace and Roman without reservation. Great guys, great company, great work. read more

I called Van Allen yesterday am ( who I have used in the past and who has done a great job at reasonable prices) because a yard guy broke a valve on the water line leading into the house. They came out at 3 and said they would need to come back in the morning because the job would take too long. They came back this am and worked about 3 hours. Roman called to get payment and said they were charging me less. Cost $3,000 for about 3 hours. I think the price is excessive but I needed to get tenants water. read more

We have used Van Allen twice. If there's a 10 stars that's what I would give them. Roman is so professional, punctual, and honest. Their price is very fair. He explained the warranty to us right up front. It's such a breath of fresh air to work with a professional like Van Allen plumbing. Thank you again!! read more

These guys came out for American home shield. Replaced my toilet and did an amazing job! Went above and beyond and we loved the work and speed and professionalism. Thank you so much! read more

I got an appointment super quick. They had a cancellation and I was seen within a couple hours the same day. Our technician was Joshua. He came to fix the toilet and a leak in the tub. He was on time and very informative. He has a lot of experience under his belt. The whole thing was a smooth experience. From the booking all the way to the technician, everyone was very nice. I would definitely book again. read more

Had a great experience with this company! I had a plumbing emergency, and called a place I have used before, they couldn't get me in till Wednesday. I was sad because I liked them, but water was running out of the faucet and it needed to stop. I called this company as it was next in my Google search. The man on the phone was pleasant and was able to get me in that afternoon! He warned me of the 150.00 per hour charge etc, which was very nice and above board. Two very nice gentlemen arrived within the appointment window and knew immediately what was wrong. They got parts at the Ace Hardware by my house and quickly fixed the problem, in under an hour! 150.00 plus parts. Great work guys!!! You are now my first call. read more

They showed up a few minutes early with a smile on their face and took care of a faucet issue that had water shooting across the room. The fix took less than hour and we were able to get on with our lives. read more

These guys have literally saved my ass twice, from my upstairs neighbor flooding my condo and causing tons of damage. They're quick, super cost efficient ($250) and I don't think you can get a better team. Gabriel came out the first time, Josh the second, and they're insanely nice, understood the issue, let me know how to prevent more issues, and just knocked it out of the park. Don't bother with other companies, Van Allen should be your plumber on speed dial. read more

They covered a shower valve replacement and a hot water heater replacement through our warranty company and did a hack job with both. Due to the shower floor also needing to be redone at this time, we were unable to use the shower valve they installed until three months after install. When we finally had the chance to use/test it we found that they installed the shower valve with hot and cold on the wrong sides and after turning the water on and then off, it continued to drip. They also stripped the shower valve handle screw on install. You would think they would have tested their own install for quality of work using a bucket to catch the water or something along those lines seeing as how they're supposed to be professional plumbers, but of course no they didn't. Because warranty was now expired they came back out as a "courtesy" and fixed the hot and cold being on the wrong sides, but left the drip and the stripped screw. I called back the same week of the second visit to let them know they still hadn't fixed the issue so they could stand by their work and correct it and now they tell me they will charge to fix it at this point. Strange because they never fixed it the first two visits. The hot water heater was a huge hassle as well. They kept delaying the install which took over a week to finally receive. Typically a hot water heater is an emergency replacement, but it was not treated as such with this company. I had to call the front office manager and tell her the warranty company was still waiting to hear from their adjuster and she argued with me for two days about it and finally reached out to their adjuster and found out that he was on vacation which is why he was not responding to the warranty company. They finally installed the water heater with a huge dent in it and they say it's fine and won't replace it either. Very disappointed in this companies unprofessional approach. read more

I contacted Van Allen Plumbing via Yelp and they responded quickly. I wanted to wait till more estimates came in before making a decision. Some plumbers wanted to come out to give me an estimate and charge me $30 if i didn't hire them, even though i sent two pics of the part and the install location. Others quoted me a flat $200 plus parts if needed. Van Allen quoted me $150 an hour. I knew it would be a fast job so i read their Yelp reviews. The reviews looked good but i still wanted to wait till today to decide. They made my decision easy when they texted me this morning. It helped me stop procrastinating and just schedule it. The job was scheduled and they arrived and had my install completed in about 20 minutes. The $150 an hour rate is also their minimum charge. Two men arrived so one could go get towels from the truck while the other worked, saving time AND using their own towels instead of mine, which i liked a lot. They made sure everything was working before they left. I'm very happy with them. read more

Josh showed up on time, was nice and polite- the job got done in a timely manor and yes...I'd call them again- Thanks read more

I bought an older house in Cold Springs and after 1 year, my hot water heater took a dump. I thought all hope was lost. - Van Allen came in and saved the day. They diagnosed an issue due to corrosion and I had hot water within the day. Same day cold to hot water is what people truly want and it happened with ease. 1 hr of work and the super skilled tech was on his way. I would recommend this company to any living human. read more

I was extremely impressed with not only their quick response, but also their attention to details. The quality of their work far exceeded my expectations. I Highly recommend Van Allen Plumbing. read more

Discovered a leaky garbage disposal late Friday night. My daughter and son-in-law recommended Van Allen Plumbing. Got up Saturday to leave a message hoping someone could come out Monday; fortunately they were working and had someone to my home within 20 minutes! Since I had someone here, I had him reconfigure the garbage disposal and pipes the way it should have been done! Courteous, friendly, efficient & left the area clean! Thank you for a great job Van Allen Plumbing read more

I called 3 companies that advertised emergency services on Yelp on a Sunday morning (1/16/2022) about a disgustingly clogged toilet. The first company advertises a 10 or 20 minute response. I left a message on their answering machine that I urgently needed help. When I didn't hear from them, I called a Roto Rooter company. I was told that someone would call me on Monday to set up an appointment. I didn't want to live with the situation until then.My call to Van Allen was my 3rd. When I reached Mike, he said he could come right away. Mike took care of the problem and also cleaned the disgusting mess. He was pleasant and explained the cause of the clog. I definitely would call Van Allen again and would want Mike to be the one to do the work! read more

Great plumbing service!! Wasn't overpriced and came to our house pretty quickly. 150.00 service charge and it went towards the work we had him do. Didn't cost us any more then that and he did a great job. read more

We wanted a RV sewer out in , they came out the same day to give an estimate and scheduled an appointment to get it done within 3 days . They were very friendly and courteous. read more

Nice workers, sent text when expected to arrive & did arrive. Performed work timely. I'll call them again when I have plumbing issues.

Van Allen Plumbing is wonderful! The office staff is friendly and efficient and they bend over backward to get service scheduled as quickly as possible. Gabe has been to my home on several occasions and he really knows his stuff, plus my dog loves him. I highly recommend Van Allen Plumbing and Heating. read more

Each time we've used Van Allen, our experience has exceeded the previous one! Heard a funny noise at 7:30 am coming from the basement and discovered that the water heater was gushing water from its base. Called Van Allen and by 5:30 pm the same day we were enjoying hot water from our state-of-the-art (and up to code I might add) new water heater. All the techs that came to our house were prompt, knowledgable and kind. Couldn't recommend more highly! WJM/Reno read more

Van Allen plumbing was who I went with when I got a quick response! My moms friend recommended them and I'm so happy! They reached out, I got in touch with them and they came out on the date and time they said and I am so appreciative. My husbands grandma needed a new garbage disposal and the pipe needed some work etc. thank you guys for being so kind and getting the job done at a reasonable price. We will always go through you guys if we need another plumbing service. read more

They were great, replaced my water heater, fixed some sink leaks and were kind, helpful and knowledgeable also did the job right, money well spent thanks! read more

I had a pinhole leak in a pipe. I pointed them to the exact location in the wall where I thought the leak was and I was right. (Leak caused by a "genius" handyman.) They charged $630 to fix the leak. And no, this doesn't include repairing the wall after they make a hole... Too much! (So, I never used them again.) read more

Stood us up after I took off work to meet them at my home...you'll see upon review that they do this frequently - unprofessional

I called the day after the holiday - the owner answered and was out to take a look within 30 min. He diagnosed, and said he could have someone out at 7:30 am the following morning. They were right on time. The two guys sent were professional, friendly, very quick and knowledgeable. So impressed with these two guys! The installation was not easy - it was not up to code to begin with. They had to put in a pan, straps, etc. There was water everywhere, & they cleaned that up. They had to move a washer dryer, and then put it back when they were done. They showed me the work. It took an HOUR people. I would, and am recommending this company to everyone I know. It wasn't cheap, and thank god I'm a renter or I would be out $1400. 2nd time calling them was short notice, a contractor backed out at the last minute and we had to have a sink installed in a new kitchen. They came out on a Saturday after the 4th of July. They were on time, professional and fast. We had a party in the afternoon, and they put in the sink, disposal and dishwasher before anyone got there. I continue to be impressed by the work ethic that Van Allen's guys have and will call them for all our plumbing needs. read more

We called Van Allen on a Friday night and they came out first thing Saturday morning! Matthew was awesome! He is very knowledgeable and friendly. He had our plumbing issues fixed super quickly and their prices are great. I highly recommend them! read more

Professional and efficient! Called in the morning and problem fixed that evening! Will definitely use again!

I had one bbq already hard-lined to natural gas, and after getting a second grill needed that one added to the line as well. I called several plumbing companies to get quotes, and Van Allen Plumbing's owner answered the phone (unlike the others who did not return my call) so we were off to a good start. He said he would send a plumber later that day; when he arrived, he said he would need more parts and asked if he could return the next day, which was fine. The work was completed in a timely manner and at a reasonable cost ($150). I recommend Van Allen Plumbing and feel confident using them for future plumbing projects. read more

The guys came in the same day and fixed the pump. No nonce service, fast, knowledgeable, reasonably priced. Will use them again.

This business was selected by my home warranty service in September. They came by and worked on my toilets and told me I would need replacements. Never heard from them again. Had my home warranty service call them multiple times and I also called them multiple times. Left voice mail, no call backs. Find somebody else if you need plumbing service. read more

Called this company, the work we needed them do was unable to be done as our other contractors were behind, they talked us into moving the main water shut off valve into the house, because the one outside was seized up. Now that we are trying to get the original request d work done, they will not return calls or messages. read more

My Home warranty company had them Come out to clear our sink backing up and lake under the sink. Took a little over an d hour new piping and cleared the clog in the sink. Gabriel and his partner did great job. read more

All I can say is wow. I needed many items repaired. They were fantastic. They were quick and kept areas clean. Best plumbers I've ever used.

Contacted Van Allen via website early Friday morning. They never responded back. Called Friday afternoon and set up time for Monday. Tech called early Monday to make sure I was available. Arrived, courteous, wearing his mask, did repairs, and was gone, all within an hour or so. Very satisfied with his work. Will not hesitate to call again read more

i have tried several companies to come put in a new outside faucet...no one wanted the job and other companies had horrible reviews. I saw the Van Allen truck at a neighbor and asked about the job and the next thing we knew they drove to our house and they installed two new faucets. They are fantastic and we will always use this company in the future. read more

Came out last year to fix irrigation pipe leak. Did not fix issue, and not returning calls to return to re-do.

I want to take the time to say that Mike and Gabe are the reasons that I will recommend your company to people that I know. They were on time and very professional on my plumbing problem. If I ever have a need for a plumber I will ask for Mike and Gabe. read more

We discovered a very clogged kitchen sink that was causing an overflow of dirty water across the kitchen floor. It was late evening. I went to the computer to search for a plumber. I called a few that advertised "open 24/7" in their online pages. Not true...not true. I got voice messages on all of them. Then I tried Van Allen..... Wallace answered my call on the second ring. Wow...a real human being. He promised someone would arrive the next morning. Gabriel arrived promptly as promised. He wore a mask and observed all Covid-19 precautions. The sink was fixed and the mess cleaned up fewer than 12 hours after we discovered it. I asked him for a quote on a few other projects we had been meaning to get to. They were all FIXED before he left. There was one last item that required a special part. He promised to return the next day. He had to delay a few hours because of an emergency. He phoned me in a timely fashion and then showed up at the promised new time. These guys are right on the ball. Fast, knowledgeable, efficient, and friendly. Special thanks to Gabriel who did all the work. The price was fair for the work accomplished. read more
