He-Man Plumbing

Michael W.

Mike was friendly, courteous, very responsive, professional, and effective.

He quickly troubleshot a problem with a blocked drain, hopped up on the roof and fixed it relatively quickly by snaking through a vent. Less mess that way.

He also explained how the problem happened, how to prevent it from happening again with the purchase of a small drain accessory, and in the unfortunate event that a clog still happened again, how I might even try to do it myself next time with the right equipment.

Basically everything you could ask for when procuring a professional service.

I called Mike at 8am on Sunday morning and he was here in 30 minutes. We had a massive leak in our bathroom which we initially thought was a sewage leak because of the smell. However it turned out to be a problem with a line to our jacuzzi tub. He quickly diagnosed the problem was courteous and professional and referred us to a specialist who could fix the problem.

It could not have been a better experience.

Mike answered the phone and was here in 15 minutes. Two drains cleaned and cleared in less than an hour. Mike was great - professional, kind, and reasonable; I highly recommend him.

I called Mike on short notice, and on a weekend (when most plumbers in our area are closed). His truck was in the shop but he was able to squeeze us in same-day. He snaked a pipe coming out of our washing machine and was able to effectively solve the problem in 30 mins. He was friendly and professional, I'm keeping his card for next time.

Mike Riley is the real deal. He loves a good clogged drain. All the good things you have heard about him are true.

We had a major problem recently with tree-root encroachment on our main sewage line during the weekend. Another plumbing company sent two people who took some roots out but couldn't remove the blockage. They then proposed a $2000 solution involving completely changing the pipes. Fortunately for us, Mike came to our rescue when another plumber had his snake stuck going through the sewage line. He seemed extremely methodical in how he used a second snake to cut away roots that tangled around the first snake and eventually removed the blockage. He is the man to call for difficult plumbing problems!

Fast, knowledgeable and reasonably priced. I have a pipe that clogs every year or two which drains my kitchen sinks. In the past, I have used ""rooter"" commercial service but last time got so frustrated with the ineptitude, lack of knowledge and pricing that I thought I would try someone new. Mike was recommended by my radiant heat guy -- I am totally satisfied.

Though Mike was not able to do a major re pipe for me, he was able to reefer me to someone else. I had hired him once before and he was a real professional, polite and to the point on my job. It only took him half the time that he thought it would and reduced the price. Most plumbers don't do this! I respect his honesty on that. Thanks Mike! As You can tell by his other reviews here on Yelp they really care about there customers.

Back story:
Saturday @ 4pm on a holiday weekend with the 49ers game on we start to have problems. While running the Kitchen garbage disposal and the Dishwasher my husband hears a noise in the laundry room. Sure enough all the food is backing up INTO the washing machine and spilling (flooding) all over our garage..UCK!

I started to call plumbers (maybe 3-5 calls) from my quick yelp research and landed with Mike from He-Man. Mike called back within 20minutes, he gave the best rate AND he could be to our home in 10-15 minutes!! $120 per hour was all it took for him to come, check out our situation, unclog our kitchen/laundry room pipes and we were back in time for the end of that amazing 49ers playoff game!

I would highly recommend Mike, he was professional, quick, and didn't overcharge. One of the other companies gave me a quote of $600 to drive out! (just to drive out - were they crazy?!) I don't have a industrial ""snake"" at my house so $120 was well worth it.

Thank you Mike for being so great and saving our plumbing!
