Recommended Customer Reviews

Solid plumber. They've installed a water heater and a new water main to the street. Good rates relative to some of the bigger shops and honest work.

I need to leave a shout-out my man Jose from Bustos Plumbing. He has rescued my wife and I from plumbing disasters on several occasions, and always on the same day. He is extremely professional, skilled, and honest. I truly appreciate the quality of service from this company and recommend them to all I know in Alameda.

We cannot say enough good things about Jim Bustos Plumbing. We found them through a contractor we didn't end up working with--which was great because Jim Bustos Plumbing was all we needed. Robert was amazing: extremely skilled, helpful, professional and friendly. He installed our tankless water heater, replaced outdated pipes, fixed a dodgy drain, trouble-shooted a faucet problem and fixed a few weird plumbing jobs from past owners. The whole project was done on time and at the right price. We highly recommend Robert and Jim Bustos Plumbing and will be calling them again, should any issue arise.

Jose is such a skilled, reasonable and honest plumber! He has helped me deal with both my own home and my rental property, for emergency call outs, unexpected disasters and regular plumbing questions for ongoing issues. His advice is straight-forward and to the point. He is the best plumber I've had in 2 decades. Thank you so much Jose!

Our water heater starting leaking last night. I called Bustos Plumbing this morning and spoke to Jose. He was at our house within an hour to assess the situation. The water heater had a hole in it and it was old.
We had a new installed water heater by 11:30am. We are thrilled with the service we received. We kept it local and we're happy customers.

Based on what needed, clogged toilet. It is hard to get a recommended plumber on short notice. Some make non emergency appointments (we had another bathroom working) several days in advance. They asked me a few questions to diagnose, fitted me in between other jobs. Snaked the 30 feet of the line, were in and out in less than an hour with a reasonable charge. Told me to not dispose of dental floss in the toilet. We're neat and professional.

Jim Bustos Plumbing consistently provide me with reliable, professional on time
service. I have a large old Victorian in Alameda that has some challenging, very
old plumbing. These folks really know how to work with old systems in these big
old houses. Their timely response, and dedication to following through and getting the job done right is excellent.
I highly recommend the company.

This past week in the crawl space of my rental unit in Alameda I discovered a burst drain pipe with the resulting considerable standing water. I called Jim Bustos Plumbing about 10am of that morning and got a return call within the hour. That afternoon they were under the house surveying the situation and what was needed. First thing next morning they were back and by late morning had repaired the problem. I wouldn't think of calling any other plumbing service. Fortunately I've had only one other plumbing issue at the units and that was a few years ago and Bustos was ""Johnny on the spot"" then also.

So fantastic! Jose bent over backwards for me and was so quick and professional. I wouldn't use anyone else.

Fast, friendly, and honest. As good as it gets. Robert was prompt and knowledgeable. We had a sudden leak under the house, which he identified and repaired by replacing a Y coupling in less than an hour. The rooter guys only want to sell me trenchless sewer lines for thousands of dollars, and apparently aren't interested in crawling around under my old house to fix a broken 101 year old cast iron pipe. Good job, Robert. Thank you.
