Lupian Plumbing

East B.

Jose is a competent plumber - I know because Lupian did a couple of jobs a few years back, one of them major ($1500). The quality was good and there were no subsequent issues though they could have been a bit cleaner (they took precautions to be neat but just didn't clean up as well as we had liked.)

That being said, he was paid promptly and there were no complaints.

The problem is that we have contacted him recently for another job and he doesn't return calls any more. Now we know he must because there is indication that he still does good work, but for some reason we can't get a call back. I can't imagine there was any issue but perhaps since this was a smaller job he's not interested?

As mentioned, there was no complaint or problem with past work and he was always paid promptly and he I think Jose is very nice guy - but I can't recommend someone who won't return calls. Note that we did talk once about a job several months ago (I reached him live) and I provided additional information he requested but since then - radio silence. Again, I'd say if you are working with Jose he will do good work but you see my dilemma. I would MUCH rather support an independent person like him but this makes me wonder what would happen if he had a change of heart once we agreed to actually start another job.

I will add he's not the only plumber around who won't return calls so on a side note I guess business is really great for the good plumbers. A pity they can't extend the common courtesy that all customers should receive.

Jose and his crew just left my house. I had my old indoor tank-based water heater replaced with a new Takagi Tankless T-TK-4-OS outside the house. They arrived on time, ran a proper 1"" gas line from my meter to the unit, removed my old tank, and cleaned up when they were done. This 5 hour job was reasonably priced, the quality of work was excellent, and the attention to detail was obvious.

The worker even put all the drywall that was cut out back in the old closet. I'll only have to tape and patch/paint and the wall will be better than new.

Last night at about 6pm I found a horrible leak under my kitchen sink. I called Lupian and left a message and they called me right back! I asked if they could come at 2pm today and they said ""no problem"". They arrived early and fixed two issues quickly and at a lower cost than other quotes I had received. WOW - I am so happy. I will definitely use them again!

Fast & thorough. Felt overcharged, though.

Prompt, reasonably priced, excellent work. I recommend them highly and will use them again.

I have nothing but great things to say about Lupian Plumbing, the owner, Jose, and his gifted craftsmen staff.

We had a broken water main and spoke to a few plumbing companies about how they would go about assessing and remedying the problem (it was somewhat complicated and political due to potential tree roots from a city owned tree) which included price quotes. Jose's explanation was thoughtful and precise, and his quote was less than the others. On the morning of the scheduled work, Jose and his workers showed up right on time, and worked quickly and skillfully to resolve the problem. Juan, the lead worker that day, was so impressive in his workmanship and attention to details, that several neighbors who watched while he completed the job, asked the Lupian staff for their business cards. When finished, the site looked clean and as if there had never been any work done.

Additionally, after the Lupian staff left and I turned the main water back on to the house, I found that some of the natural sediment from the pipes got pulled into the shower pipes and clogged the valve. I called Jose back, and he came back out and helped me back-flush and unclog the pipes. This was above and beyond the scope of the work that we hired them to do, and was a great example of their commitment to customer service.

Lupian plumbing is the best plumbing service that I've ever used. After having an entire house full of plumbing installed by another company and not being satisfied with the work, when it came time to replace our hot water heater we began searching for alt's.

After consulting a few plumbing companies, we settled on Lupian based on their plan for the work, the price, as well as their impeccable reputation on Yelp.

We could not be happier with the work they did. The hot water heater is perfect. While they were there, they also fixed an improperly installed landscaping pipe, and they improved the water flow in our house. Both of those last items were done cost effectively and effectively.

I could not be happier with the work that Lupian did and highly recommend them to friends.

Called a few of the 5 star recommended plumbers but only Lupian Plumbing was able to get back to me quickly. They were able to fix the leak I had from the houseline to the meter along the sidewalk. Andy dug the trench and was able to pinpoint the problem and cap off the old galvanized pipe which was leaking due to age, wear and tear. Best was the price. I recommend these guys big time. I will have them probably do my sewer lateral in the near future.

Andy did an excellent job replacing a water pipe that broke outside our house. Fast, efficient and friendly!
