Affordable Plumbing Solutions

They may not the cheapest, but I like their no BS approach.
Nowadays, they still honor their warranty which is rare in that business.
I like it and I will use them again.

I'm a bit OCD and I have a pretty good knowledge of all phases of construction. So when I meet someone in the construction industry I can tell pretty quick if they seem to know what they're doing. After I see their work I know for sure if they do.

Richard & a helper came out to move some water and sewer lines for a bath/laundry remodel I was doing. This is an older home so the sewer is cast iron and the water is copper. They were quick, clean, and everything passed inspection on the first try.

They did the little extras that most contractors don't - making sure the water lines were fastened down properly to eliminate water hammer noises, running lines so that later drywall work wouldn't accidentally run a screw into a line, etc.

They also replaced the flange for the toilet. The original was no longer usable. The drain was cast iron in concrete. This could have cost big $$$ to fix. Richard removed the old and soldered a new flange on and it looks like new. It was refreshing to see an artist at work.

If you want to hire someone that knows what they're doing and does it right, these are the guys for you.

I was having some problems with my dishwasher leaking. Richard came by, quoted me a very fair price, did great work and gave me some advice on my future hardware purchases. I have no reason to use any plumber other than Richard!

This is my first yelp review after my second time using them.

My home had a stoppage in bathroom and toilet - bad smell water would back up out of tub and toilet when we flush, take shower, run the washers etc... We had a Home Protection Plan so default is to call them first. The vendor finally came after a couple days due to Christmas, He wandered for over half an hour and cannot clear it up. He claimed it's out of his snake's range (110 feet) and even with a longer snake it won't help. He recommended us a $800-1000 project to open up another clean out which we think is outragious. Since this project won't be coverred by our Plan, we called Richard right away because he did a great job last time fixing our toilet. He came in within 2 hours and cleared it up in 10 minutes. He used a 125 feet snake but had touched the stoppage at around 75 feet. Of course he went all the way to 125 feet to make sure it all cleared up. Compared with a $800-1000 project, we paid $125, exactly the same as he estimated over the phone, and it is worth of every penny.

richard just came over and replaced my kitchen faucet after i gave it the ""college try"" this weekend... showed up on time, quoted me a very fair price, did a great job and cleaned up afterwards. i am very satisfied with my experience and would not hesitate to recommend affordable plumbing solutions to anyone for any plumbing job!

This review is on the quote process only:

I met with Richard to get a quote on a partial re-pipe of our home. He asked what we wanted done, walked through the house and gave a thorough explanation of what he recommended we needed to do. He answered any questions and provided a quote on the spot.

While he was very professional, after meeting with 4 other plumbing companies for estimates, I found his quote to be substantially higher than the others.

Judging by the other reviews, Affordable Plumbing does good work but if price is an issue (as it was for us) there may be more ""affordable solutions"" out there.

We had a bad clog in our washer drain - we bought a 40 buck snake at Home Depot, and tried for quite awhile to unclog it - could not do it! So we looked through Yelp and found Richard, owner of Affordable Plumbing Solutions).

Very accomodating, quick - and a good price. Also looked at a few other 'issues' in our home and gave us some good suggestions (and even quickly installed a toilet flapper gratis (but we gave him ten extra bucks more because he was so darn nice))

We have a great honest mechanic for our car, and now we have his equal in a plumber.

Thanks Yelp for the ratings that helped me select Affordable.

Affordable Plumbing was definitely that - very affordable (37% less than my other quote). It was a small job that he treated like a large one - responded promptly, provided an immediate estimate and worked around the schedule of other contractors on site. The plumbing was installed professionally and everything was clean upon completion.

Richard is an exceptional plumbing contractor and the best of the many I have dealt with. It was a pleasure dealing with Affordable and will call back for any other future plumbing projects.

We needed a plumber to install a water line to our refrigerator, and chose APS after researching on Yelp. Scheduling an appointment for the no-charge estimate was quick and easy.

The estimate was very reasonable and Richard's explanation of the options available was easy to understand. High-quality parts were used, and the installation was very neat, clean, and maintainable.

Richard arrived early for both the estimate and work appointments. He displays a very neat and professional appearance, and both he and his wife are very friendly and pleasant to deal with.
