Recommended Customer Reviews

This gentleman did not work for me. I found him to be unpredictable time wise. On day one, he got delayed; on day two, he wanted to come an hour before hour appt time.
Once here, we argued about the price. He asked for blanket authorization ...and I was unwilling to give it beyond the first hour.
I've had drains cleaned before....and it just didn't go well. When I said this wasn't working, he thanked me for wasting his time and left.
Overall, not easy, not friendly.

Jason came out first thing in the morning on a Saturday to fix our backed-up sewer. He was friendly and on time. He's your new plumber.

This plumber is almost too good to be true.
1) Extremely upfront and honest over the phone;
2) Came almost immediately after I called;
3) Diagnosed the problem with my toilet very quickly;
4) Repaired it fast;
5) Gave excellent suggestions for avoiding the problem in the future;
5) Reasonable pricing; AND
6) He takes every credit card for your convenience.
What more can you possibly be looking for in a plumber? This guy is going on speed dial at my house!

My tenant called me at 8pm at night panicking cause one of the toilets was leaking and water was dripping through her downstairs neighbor's ceiling. I searched on yelp and found Jason (I called other plumbers with the highest number of reviews first.. plumber #1 and #2 didn't pick up, plumber #3 wanted to charge a leg and an arm.)
I explained the situation to him over the phone and he said he can come in 15-30 minutes. We ended up making an appointment for the next day because my tenant can't make it that night.
Jason communicated with us via text in the morning and let us know his schedule. He was stuck at other jobs but he communicated with us well so we didn't have to wait all morning. He showed up at 1pm and fixed the problem within 30 minutes. He is professional and thorough and he gets the job done quick! His price was very fair also! (1/2 of what plumber #3 wanted to charge me.)
I'll definitely call him again in the future.

Had a clogged toilet, they showed up within 30 minutes of my call and fixed the problem in another 30 minutes. Price was very fair, plumber was extremely friendly, honest, and professional. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for an affordable plumber!

Our hot water stopped making...hot water. Jason was able to diagnose the problem quickly, get the needed replacement part, and install it quickly and professionally. We'll definitely use him in the future.

Jason did a great job for us clearing two sewer lines. He was quick to respond to us and came out within an hour. I would definitely recommend him and will use him again.

Jason has done a great job for both myself and my father in law. He is knowledgeable, responsible, reasonably priced, and operates with a high ethical standard. I highly recommend him!

Sometimes it's better to be lucky. My DIY project of the day was to replace the kitchen sink faucet. Step one turn off the water using the under the sink shut-off valve...POP...now I have a broken angle stop leaking water...wonderful...time to call a professional.
Having rental properties we have a few plumbers on speed dial.
Speed dial plumber 1 - vacation...
Speed dial plumbers 2-4 - busy...
Yelp plumbers 5-7 - busy...
Finally I called the Hungry Plumber. He just finished with his last job of the day and was free to come ASAP. He was also the least expensive of the 7 plumbers I called.
He came and quickly fixed the problem. While he was there anyway I had him install the faucet, and fix some other stuff on my to-do list. Our water pressure was low, and he said he could fix that too (something I would have never thought was an easy fix). After less than 3 hours he was done.
We were extremely happy with the work and the price.

Just called Jason to help me fix a quarter turn stop valve that was leaky after I tried to install it myself. He explained how the copper ring from the old valve often crimps the copper pipe which means you've got to saw off a bit of the pipe from the wall before installing the new valves.
He fixed the leaky valve and replace three others in less than an hour. He will definitely earn repeat business from me.
