Recommended Customer Reviews

Barry is a true professional! I had a leak on the main water line and had a mess on my front lawn. Barry gave me a fair quote after looking at the issue. He didn't charge me $59 dollars just to tell me I had a leak (yes, ""Reliable Plumbing"" did just that!). Barry repaired the busted copper pipe and replaced the shut off valve - he gave me a fair price (not six times more as the other guys quoted me - and they were only quoting me for a patch job- horrible!!). Barry arrived on time, got to work, and cleaned up the mess. I will only call Barry for any future needs. Thank you Barry - I am grateful that Hollister has an honest plumber who doesn't take advantage of individuals in his community!

Barry came on the recommendation of some dear friends and answered my pleas last week when we had a water main spring a leak. Extremely honest, responsive, and professional - we are so relieved and VERY pleased with his work.

I was so impressed I signed up for this account, just to write this review (but, if I'm being honest, it's also so I can be prepared to slam someone when they deserve it ...). But, because of this, I recognize that good work should be rewarded. So, to be brief, we had water softener problem and Barry Carlson (owner) handled the purchase and installation promptly and professionally. I believe him to be fair and honest and I will not hesitate to use him again. I highly recommend him if you live anywhere in the South County/Hollister area.

Barry Carlson is a great guy who does great work. Tony, his assistant, is great too. We've long used Carlson Plumbing and have always been very happy with their work and prices. We have no hesitation in recommending this company!

My experience with Carlson plumbing was not good. I had an active leak (not big, but active) from a water pipe right next to my water heater. My call to Carlson went to voicemail, but he called back a few minutes later. This was late in the afternoon Friday, but he agreed to come out Saturday between 10am and noon. On Saturday, noon came and went with no plumber. 3 phone calls (to voicemail) and a text message did not result in a single call from Carlson. It's like the company fell off the face of the earth. I had to start over with a new plumber and didn't get the leak fixed till Monday. Any future plumbing needs that I have will not go to Carlsen plumbing.

Only plumber I trust. Doesn't overcharge, no BS fees, is honest up front before any work is done, knowledgeable, accommodating, professional and pleasant. If you want an honest, solid and reasonable plumber, call Barry. He'll hook you up!

I have had to call out Carlson's Plumbing twice in the last year for clogged sewer and toilet drains,once on a holiday. They were quick to arrive and very quick to competently solve the problem, both times at a VERY affordable cost. These guys are great and true professionals and I wouldn't hesitate to use Carlson Plumbing again for my plumbing issues. I am disabled/handicapped and having my plumbing problem fixed in a timely manner is very important for me. Carlson is the one to use in Hollister!

I had a line going from under my sink to my fridge burst! Flooded the kitchen!! After turning off the water to the older system. I called Carlson plumbing and made an appt. Barry Carlson came out and recommend that I replace my R.O. Unit as well. I made a trip to lowes in Gilroy and returned to the house with a new faucet and R.O. System. Barry and Tony (no relation) showed up on time . Thumbs up!!!! My new equipment was installed for a nominal previously agreed upon $$! (The cost was very reasonable)!

The absolute best!!! Came out on Saturday and didn't charge extra.Did a great job and telling eveyone I know this guy is excellent..Don't write posts but because he was exceptional I had to let everyone know.

Great service and fast! Walked into my garage to find my water heater had leaked all over. Called and left a message at 7:26am. Barry Carlson called back at 7:29 and was at my house by 8:30. Water heater was replaced in about an hour. Fast, friendly service.
