    We recently replaced our water heater with a tankless one and it has been fantastic decision! No…read moremore running out of hot water! (With a household of 6 the daily use of the washing machine, bathtubs, and dishwasher had to be carefully timed and even then we sometimes had to use water that wasn't the appropriate temperature; having hot water on demand has been a lifesaver during this season of raising young children). Dirty Plumber was quick to respond to my husband's quote request and the company was transparent with pricing. I really feel we got a good value and quality work. After the work was completed, I later saw the business owner volunteering at AWANAS (apparently he's a regular who volunteers every week with the kids); this gave me further confidence that the owner must be genuine guy who's speal about how he was able to offer the best price really could be trusted. I *WILL* say that had I been the one looking at quotes (rather than my husband) the name "Dirty Plumber" would not have necessarily deterred me but the ugly cartoon mascot painting on their company truck certainly may have! I would imagine oftentimes women are the ones who arrange their schedule to let the employee in to do the work and the "plumber's crack", actively smoking while working, disheveled grumpy looking mascot painted on their van didn't exactly paint a picture of professionalism, reliability, or safety. THANKFULLY, I felt the owner and employee who arrived to do the work were professional in their interactions, overall appearance, time on task, and attention to detail (the tankless water heater is installed evenly on my garage wall and the insulation on it looks neat and tidy). If you are considering switching to a tankless water heater I highly recommend Dirty Plumber. Their price is great, they are thorough, and the quality work is evident.

    I used their services several years ago to fix a broken pipe behind our master tub and shower. Joe…read morewas fair, on time, diligent in completing the work and a very nice guy! No one enjoys dealing with plumbing emergencies or issues, but if you're looking for someone fair, honest and true to their word, you need to hire the services of The Dirty Plumber. Excellent overall and they are locally owned as well. Recommended.

    Six months ago I shopped around for a plumber to replace our water heater that had been out far…read morelonger than I'd like to admit, but I was finally getting it done. The company sent out a young but very knowledgeable and adept plumber out the next day, who made quick work of removing the old tank, helping me rebuild the platform that was now ruined, and installed a new tank with new piping. I was very impressed with the speed and expertise of the job! While maybe not the cheapest company I received a quote from, it was certainly not as expensive as many of the lower-rated companies, and had the quickest turnaround to my family's hot water back on. Today (six months after the new install), the release valve popped on the water heater and we lost hot water. I shut it down and turned off the water and gas, and immediately called for help. It was 4pm (and I live in Fernley). I had taken a photo, as well, and texted it to them showing exactly what to expect. By 5:15pm, there was a plumber at my door (they made record time all the way from Reno in heavy traffic on I-80!) and they repaired the faulty valve and also repaired an exhaust pipe (from original home construction) that had started bending. All under warranty from the work they had done previously for me. Again, I was very impressed, and I am 100% completely satisfied by having chosen such a reputable plumbing company!

    Ira Hansen and Sons Plumbing lied about service rendered!…read more They claimed to have shut off the water & drained our water heater. the problem? the drain broke off the water heater, & the water main was shut off an hour prior to them getting on site. we just requested a quote for replacement. they voided the invoice when called out, but if they lie about the most simple & verifiable things, imagine how much they would lie to screw you out of as much money as possible when you're not able to validate. also fyi I replaced the water heater myself in 3 hours as a complete amateur & it cost $760 instead of the $3,300 quoted. (permits & inspections costs included!)

    Our home warranty sent a plumber out, who I'll review separately, to diagnose and fix a basement…read morebathroom that stopped drawing. They said it was a mainline issue and we would have to find someone else. Based on Yelp reviews we called the Plumbing Doctor and had an appointment the next day. As it turns out the basement doesn't go to the mainline but goes through an ejector tank & pump up to the mainline. It took Dave about 3 minutes to diagnose the problem as a failed pump. He basically cleared the schedule the next day, had the pump replaced and we're back in business. Communicated through the whole process. Even though dealing with sewage in our basement the job was done spotlessly with a very thorough clean up. Pricing seems very reasonable though we didn't shop around. I'll give this locally owned small business a call every time and just skip my home warranty in the future. Much less headache for a reasonable price.

I bought the replacement spigot parts at Home Depot, and he did the labor. He educated me on a tankless water heater to replace my old 50 gallon water heater while explaining the benefits of going tankless. I also have the option of purchasing a water filtration system too. I'm probably moving forward on both systems in the next few months, and will rely on his services for parts and installation. I've included some before and after photos of the outside water spigot. As you can see from the after photo, the water leakage issue is completely resolved. Not a single drop of water is coming out of the spigot now!

    It isn't easy learning all the new things to owning a house. And I don't even really own the house…read more My mom is still the owner, but after dad's passing 2 years ago, I became head of her household. Mom is unable to do many things. So, it's up to me to take care of things. There is no manual for adulting! For the 3rd time in 10 years, the most recent being 2018, the water heater broke. And leaked again into the house. I remember the disaster my parents suffered in 2018 and I wanted to cry thinking it happened again. But, I put on my big girl pants to check Yelp for a plumber. And that's when I found 5 Star Plumbing! David and Barbara are so great! I told them my situation. They were cooperative, friendly, informative, and the greatest blessing overall. David put my mind at ease of how the situation will get fixed. And he took care of the water heater and pipes! Barbara is amazing with scheduling and any information. This is my plumbing go-to! I have a minor situation with a sink and I know it will get done soon! My house schedule has been crazy lately so I have to put it on hold. But I have a trustworthy company! Highly recommend!
