Recommended Customer Reviews

I called someone from HMS to do the frame under the sink for the farmhouse sink he did so many mistakes left gaps on the sides of the sink and the wood that holds the sink he put it where the cabinet door don't close I told him to make it shorter but he wouldn't' I called him several times because the granite people told me if you need to fix these problems it has to be fixed before the granite is done...so I called him several times and he kept saying I try to come and he never did...so I fixed the gaps on the side of the sink myself and now I still am on hold because of the under the sink frame is too long and I can't close the cabinets doors...I was so stupid I gave him cash and more than what he asked for

My home had a leak, I panicked! As soon as I called them for help they came. Best customer service in town! I will definitely be recommending them to my family and friends! Thanks again HMS!

Jose was awesome! He came the same day when we had our faucet break in the bathtub where we could not turn off the water. He was able to fix the problem and replace the broken part on the that same day. He also replaced the water inlet valve on our dishwasher that day for no additional charge. They are professionals and know what they are doing. They are a great company with great customer service. We have recommended them to family and friends, and we will continue to use their services for repairs and home improvement needs. I highly recommend this company if you have a repair or project that needs their expertise.

We called HMS Plumbing and Construction to get a second opinion on a slab leak detection and repair. We are so thankful we did! Jose accurately located the leak and provided a simpler and more affordable solution than the first plumber suggested. He also repaired some faucets that the previous plumber said were obsolete and could not be repaired. We appreciated Jose's honesty, professionalism and great communication skills.

These guys are the greatest. They are fair, hard-working and quick to respond. Tommy and Jose were great to work with and knowledgeable. I highly recommend this company for their excellent work. Won't use anyone else.

If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Jose and Chris are fantastic!!! I have used them several times for all of my plumbing needs. We came home from a vacation to a flooded bedroom, apparently, we had a slab leak and the water had been running for several days. I called HMS, and Jose and Chris were at my house within 20 minutes. They got the water under control, placed fans, and even helped me move a few pieces of furniture. They truly go above and beyond. After they repaired the leak, Jose came back and did a complete remodel from top to bottom of my bedroom. He offered wonderful suggestions and saved us a ton of money. I cannot say enough good about this company. Chris is awesome and he hires wonderful competent employees. Highly reccomend.

Jose and his associate were extremely professional and swift when it came to repairing a leaky pipe. Jose was able to conduct an inspection the same day I called and then provide repairs shortly thereafter. The drywall and paint were seamlessly repaired. I can't thank HMS and Jose enough.

This company deserves more than 5 Stars. After a huge rainstorm I noticed 2 small puddles of water underneath my master bedroom window. I called a plumbing company I normally deal with. This particular plumbing company after assessing the situation concluded there was no pipe leak and suggested I contact a roofing company. HMS Plumbing & Construction to the rescue!! Jose Negrete used a Drone to look at the roof of my home and found no work needed to be done. He said my roof was in great condition and there were no visible broken tiles.
I love that Jose was honest with his recommendations. I definitely recommend HMS to anyone that's looking for a honest and reliable company.

Our shower valve seized up and broke leaving the shower running and forced me to shut off our water to the house. HMS was able to come out quickly, open up the wall, replace the valve, and put it all back together and have my water back in a few short hours.... all for a reasonable price.

Our Family's Story About One Little Hot Water Leak in El Cerrito.
I noticed in Sept. 2021. In our backyard outside of our master bathroom wall are two planters. A 4 foot wide landing between the two, made with pavers which lead to our outside water faucets. Underneath the pavers I began to notice the soil had more moister then usual. Oh I gave it a lot of thought over the next few months, trying to make good sense of it all and I reacted with doing a few different things, but no, these ideas didn't help.
Let's move into the night of the 4th of Nov. (I'm bear foot)walked into my closet (tile floor) and floor is unusually warm, honey honey check this out, (I'm talking to my wife) she said, Yes it is warm. O'my a Hot water leak under the slab. That very night we Texted a message to HMS Plumbing and Construction. They returned a Text a short time later, saying they can have one of their technicians (Jose) show up in a few hours. We thanked the owners (Megan) and said no, we turned off the water valve out front and the water heater, it's getting late. (Megan) said tomorrow morning is available to do an inspection. Yes we would like that appointment.
* Nov 5th 2021 - 7:30am using a special meter (Jose) found the leak. We authorized permission to open the wall where the leak was detected. In 1 1/2 hours he sealed the leak that was coming from a hot water line from the guest bathroom. Water off - water on; and the water heater back on; leak is all fixed. Jose say someone will be calling us up later today to discuss any further assistance we may need and that he will return The next day to close the wall back up and re-paint.
* We received a phone call from the owner, (Megan) and decided that since this had happened once before 12 years earlier we wanted to set an appointment to re-pipe all the hot and cold water in the house. Megan let's us know they will have (Jose) there on Monday the 8th.
* Nov. 8th - We received a call that (Jose) is in route. Start before 8am. Technicians Jose, Silas, and Tommy show up and put in a 10 to 11 hour day. Opened three precise Location indoors and two in the backyard. Ran new hoses to all water locations in the house, hot and cold.
* Nov 9th - Start at 8am. ""Second work day"" with two men. Jose and Silas finished running all water line's with all new connections all locations in the house. Washing Machines, Kitchen Sink, Refrigerator, Guest Bathroom, Master Bathroom. That part is now all done.
* Note : during the past two days we had hot and cold water ALL DAY, and never had to leave the house.
* Nov10th - Third day, Jose and Silas worked on reinstalling dry wall that was opened up for the re-pipe. Also, there was two other Technicians (Manuel and Tino) who did the re-stucco on the outside walls in the back yard. Let's let the walls dry and returned for repainting.
* Nov 11th - Fourth day, Jose and Silas repainted with (our) paint, all walls that they opened up. All the work inside the house is Finished.
