First, a few years ago, when we had moved to Pleasanton, we were shocked with the quality of water. We learned that we get hard water here but the worst part was the weird taste of the water. We reached out to a few vendors. Adli responded quickly, set up an appointment and showed up at our door. Adli did not try to sell us. Instead, he informed us of our choices. He made his recommendations. He explained patiently why his recommendations are good. After Adli left, we did our research and turns out he was right about every recommendation. The shocking part though was that Adli's pricing was reasonable compared to other vendors. We installed a water softener that does good work. Unfortunately, recently, the flow of water reduced so much that there was minimal to no flow of water. We had reached out to a few vendors ands hockingly, some of the vendors suggested replacing the whole unit, which didn't make sense to us, not to mention the ridiculously high cost. Then, we remembered Adli. And he came to our rescue again. He said he would send Steve the next day. Steve came to our home, inspected and immediately identified the issue. Steve suggested a solution, went back and talked Adli about it. Adli gave a pricing for the job that was customer friendly compared to other vendors. Adli's guys arrived, replaced the tank in a few minutes instead of just replacing the resin, charged us a low price and left. The water softener unit is back to working normally. The summary of the long review is two things - 1. Customer friendly, 2. Honest and trustworthy. Needless to say, I refer AWP water systems to our friends and anyone asking for similar service. Adli and team are good professionals who know what they are doing and take care of their customers. I would highly recommend AWP water systems for their reasonable price and high quality of service.

After the technician completed the filter service, my water filtration system was not working properly. I contacted the owner expecting them to stand behind their work and help troubleshoot the issue. Instead, without performing an official inspection of the system, I was quickly told that the resin likely needed to be replaced and was quoted approximately $500 for another service visit. My system is only about 5-6 years old, so I was concerned that such an expensive repair was being recommended without properly diagnosing the problem first. We later discovered on our own that the actual issue was that the filtration system settings had not been set correctly after the technicians changed the filters. Once the settings were corrected, the system worked. My biggest concern is the lack of communication and proper troubleshooting. Before recommending a customer spend another $500, especially immediately after your technicians serviced the system, I would expect the company to first verify that the work was completed correctly and that the system settings were properly configured. Unfortunately, based on my experience, I would not recommend this company.

I felt some resistance, and before I could stop, I punched through whatever it was. I pulled out the drill and saw black plastic shards on the drill bit. Had the immediate "oh sh*t" moment. I cut some of the dry wall away to see what I had just hit, and sure enough, it was a pipe. I called the number on this listing and spoke with Ijaz. He was very professional over the phone and said he could come by in the afternoon and quoted a ballpark price, ~$500, over the phone. He ended up arriving a couple of hours late and explained he had an emergency call, and his clothes showed it. He said he'd want to get changed before working on my house to not get it dirty and asked if he could come by the next day. I appreciated that he actually drove over to tell me this instead of just canceling on me or no-showing. I asked if he could at least take a look, and he did so gladly. He confirmed it was a vent pipe and not a waste water drain. I was pretty relieved, and he said that it was a DIY job I could do myself by just using ABS glue. He walked me through how I could do the repair myself. As he left, I offered to pay him at least for the inspection and his advice, and he declined and said it was okay. I insisted and gave him a small amount of cash. Shortly after, he knocked on the door and said he had some glue in his van. He came in and completed the repair free of charge. Ijaz is an honest, hardworking individual. I'd highly recommend!

If you want to make sure the work you have done is permitted, they are one of the best companies to go with if you are working with a tight budget. Ijaz really worked exceptionally well with us to make the process run as smooth as possible and managed our expectations regarding timeline. Having the most affordable option can be very important, but I believe that Ijaz's best asset is understanding how to work with the cities for permitted plumbing work. He takes note of what they are looking for and tries to exceed that, so things will run as smoothly as possible. This is a huge asset. Before we hired them, we got quotes from two other companies and Ijaz's quote was the most competitive. We liked their work so much, we added more jobs for them right away. Ijaz is very easy to get hold of compared to the other leading plumbing companies in the area. We could not be happier for choosing them.

As a global traveler and United States road warrior I have had the opportunity of drinking and tasting a variety of water from different sources. The best tasting water to date has come from only two places, Alaska and right here in my hometown of Fremont, Ca. The water emporium right next to Safeway has a reverse osmosis water treatment system that produces what I like to call liquid gold. After years of drinking this water I can honestly say that any other water is just "nasty". This is how water is supposed to taste, just pure unadulterated water without any additives or harsh chemicals. The new owners Jack and Nita have maintained the standards created by the guy who built and installed the system without any compromise to quality. And if you are one of those who think that water is just water, please do yourself and your body a favor and stop by and have a drink, it's on the house! And whilst your tasting, take a look at the analysis of "other" mass produced waters including are very own city water and after another taste, you will be most certainly convinced, as I was; that this is the best water ever tasted! On the price, it's roughly .60cents per gallon. That may seem expensive to some, but I drink a lot, I mean a lot of water and find that the price is extremely reasonable, in some instances cheaper than some other brands of water. There is also one more important feature of getting your water from here, and that is the environment. I reuse the same containers over and over and have for years, which means no plastic water bottles or plastic lids mucking up the environment, which largely reduces my footprint on Mother Earth. Excellent water, Excellent customer service, all this and helping the planet for my kids! Thanks Jack and Nita.... read more
