Allen Wrench Plumbing

Its hard finding reliable help without a good recommendation. The plumber we have used in the past was unavailable, so we tried this company. I had a very good experience! They are very friendly, professional, prompt and helpful. I highly them and would definitely use them again.

They were prompt and charged a reasonable pre-fixed amount. We had a leak from our upstairs bathroom. Thankfully we didn't have a major problem and it was fixed quickly.

This is my second time getting their service, they repaired the leak of my bath tub today, very professional as always. Definitely would recommend.

First to respond, came quickly, and best pricing. Allen was very professional and did a great job. We will definitely call him in the future for any other plumbing needs as he was very trustworthy and all around great guy who did an excellent job.

Mike and Joe installed my water heater on Jan 7. Showed up on time, no surprises or upsells, competent, friendly, masks. While their quote amount was average, their service was top notch and I have already recommended them to multiple neighbors.

After a few days of wondering if the power vented heater was noisier in the floor above than its predecessor I contacted Joe and they came back the next day and addressed the issue with some vent pipe adjustments, without any apparent reservation/blaming or excuses. Excellent customer service again!

Excellent experience! Showed up on time. Super friendly. Worked fast. Super clean install. Even filled the salt and started the softener setup process. Excellent price too!

After requesting help and quotes on Yelp for a low water pressure situation in an upstairs bath/shower with two faucets (the ""guest"" bath) that had apparently occurred within the last two months, Joe came by to give a free estimate. This was at my mother-in-law's house where my wife and I are staying while her mother recovers from surgery. To diagnose the problem, and after turning off the water at the street, he took out both valves and stuck a wire into the connecting pipe to see if there was any sediment or buildup but nothing was apparent. He reinstalled the valves but there wasn't any improvement. He gave us a quote for a single-control Moen temperature-balancing faucet, complete with a trim plate that would cover the holes left by the original faucets, for $325. Now that he had diagnosed the problem, he urged us to ask for quotes for this job on Yelp to see what others would charge. We were fine with this estimate but had other plumbers coming and wanted at least a second opinion. But Joe didn't charge for this initial diagnosis.

Two hours later, another plumber responding to our request on Yelp showed up. I didn't tell him what Joe had done previously. This time we turned off the water using the valve in the garage, the only difference. He pretty much determined the same problem but wanted $150 to remove the valves and fish the connecting pipe. I pressed him on what the next step would be if that didn't work (which I already knew it wouldn't). He said that he could install pretty much the same single-control faucet that Joe had recommended for $600-$800! I then told him that Joe had already done what he wanted $150 to do and also told him Joe's estimate for the same type of faucet. He was amazed and asked if Joe was a ""real plumber"" and he kept pressing and pressing and I told him, no, I wasn't interested, I thanked him for his time and ""effort"" but told him that I was ending this. He protested all the way out the door and then told me he might be able to do it on his time for less. No thanks!

But wait, here's the best part! After he left, I turned on all the faucets in the house and then opened the valve in the garage. Lots of noise and banging and the sound of water whooshing. I started to turn off all the faucets downstairs and my wife called from upstairs saying that water was gushing out of the tub spout in the upstairs bathroom! Apparently, whatever Joe did had resolved the problem, it just took a complete flushing of the faucets and the upstairs bath/shower was now working just fine. My wife and I finally got to take decent showers again!

Since Joe actually fixed the problem and it didn't cost her anything, my mother-in-law decided that she wanted to reimburse him for his time and effort, so she called and said that she wanted to send a check for $100. A very nice woman (Joe's wife?) answered and when she explained the call to Joe, they both said that this wasn't necessary. If we have any future plumbing problem at either my mother-in-law's house or at our house, we will definitely call Joe!

Showed up on time, very congenial and wearing masks. Solved our problem quickly at a as good price. Would recommend them. Will use them again.

Really appreciate that Joe and Michael showed up on time. They came ready with their PPE on, and did a great job in relocating a gas line I need moved. They made sure to clean up completely after the job was done. Highly recommend Monkey Wrench for any plumbing needs you may have. I know they will be my first call next time I need plumbing work. Thanks for a job well done!

So thankful for monkey wrench plumbing! We just bought a 50yr old home with 50yr old plumbing and Joe couldn't have been a bigger blessing to us...the house it literally falling apart with random leaks all over the place. Joe was honest and fair, fixing all the problems and giving suggestions on future possible problems. I appreciated this as I'd rather fix a problem before it's actually a problem. Never tried to up-sell and was honest. We're in the middle of a bathroom remodel and many problems have cropped up, joe was very helpful in his suggestions. I actually contacted two plumbers before finding joe and his rates beat them all as well! I had been trying to do a lot of the work on my own and when I felt overwhelmed had asked for referrals from a plumbing supply warehouse and joe with Monkey Wrench came highly recommended. I have to agree! A great find for us! Definitely will be calling them up again as my old house will undoubtedly need more of his help!
