Peterson Plumbing

I had a clogged shower drain and called them. Chris was finishing another job in my area so was able to be at my house within 20 minutes! He took care of the problem really quickly. Because I only have one shower, it was a lifesaver!! I would definitely call them again for any work I would need.

Chris is the main plumber for Peterson and he's a hard working young family man. He lives all the way out in Tracy, but works all over the East Bay, including our Bradford water heater out on Alameda island.

Even though I work with my hands for living, it's in the arts and so I understand that it's not always easy to work with some people in the trades because they live a different life than people who work in offices all day.

But Chris is a genuine and courteous guy and I found it easy to communicate with him and I think he works with customers well. So, I'd definitely recommend Chris for your work.

Once again we needed help unclogging our kitchen drain......Chris came out and did the job quickly and on time. We really recommend Peterson Plumbing for anyone who needs help in Alameda. Thanks!

If you need a routine check on your toilet, definitely look elsewhere to get better pricing. They charged me $170 to change my flapper and fill valve, which took about 15 minutes. I should have just watched a 10 minute YouTube clip, bought the $25 in parts at the hardware store, and done it myself.

I used Yelp and called a 5 star plumber who said he could't fix my upgrade Kohler when he came to my home. I went to where I bought it and they mentioned Peterson Plumbing. That was the best call for maintenance I've made in many years. On the first call, David knew exactly what type of plumbing I had and instead of me paying $65 for the part, referred me to Kohler who sent it to me free under their lifetime warrantee policy. Dave not only fixed my problem on his first visit but also a couple on my to-do list. He is new to the area but not to plumbing. He is a Master Plummer with more training and skills than anyone I've used in the past 5 years. I would recommend him to anyone who wants someone who is really a ""pro"" and not just a plumber.

LOVE these guys! Clean cut, and professional. Dave explained everything he found and fixed in a way anyone could understand. No games! They seem to have every plumbing tool you could ever need. No ""sorry I can't do that today I don't have the tools"" from these guys! They respected my place as if it was their own. The only reason I knew they were here was because EVERYTHING WAS FIXED AND WORKING!!!! No mess. I would recommend Peterson Plumbing to ANYONE with plumbing needs. Thanks Dave!

Best most honest plumber I have ever used. Dave is a true craftsman and knows his art. He carefully explains your problems to you and gives you all your options. He also refuses to use sub par materials. Bottom line you can't find a better plumber for your home.

Peterson Plumbing is the best! We've used them several times and they are courteous, prompt, and professional. Most recently, we called because our garbage disposal was stopped up, and Dave walked us through how we could possibly fix it ourselves. Sure enough, we were able to do it! Dave is friendly and helpful! Some problems aren't that easily solved and we will ALWAYS use this plumbing service, They are the best.

Run, do not walk from Peterson Plumbing!!!!!!!! Dealing with the owner Dave was a nightmare. He thinks of himself as a emergency service only. Forget anything about respect and courtesy.
There are a lot of other very qualified plumbers out there and in all of my years of being a homeowner, I have never encountered anyone as rude as Dave!!!!

When my wife and I moved into our house 18 months ago, there was an electric range. My wife prefers gas. The house was set up for both, so when we found a nice Bosch gas range at 1/2 price, the conversion should have been easy. I called Peterson Plumbing because he is local. The conversion wasn't easy - anything that might have gone wrong did go wrong. Dave Peterson spent four hours here on a Tuesday and could not complete the task. He was back with an assistant on Thursday for another 1 1/2 hours before everything worked. At the end, he gave me a bill for $165, including parts. I said to him, ""Are you sure that's enough? You guys put quite a few hours into this project!"" He replied, ""Well, there's usually a $60 service fee, but I waived that because you're a neighbor. Besides, it was partly my fault."" I gratefully paid the $165, and Peterson Plumbing has a customer for life.
