We've used Chris at Tamalpais Plumbing several times, including this morning when we woke to water pouring down our outside stairs. It took him 5 minutes to find the cause and less than half an hour to fix it. He is very reliable and very competitively priced -- he won't disappoint you!

courteous and punctual -- two excellent traits for a plumber. my low rating is based on my perception that his rates were very high, especially when compared to a plumber I used to do some follow up work.

Chris has helped us out on a number of occasions.

We have been impressed with his professionalism, responsiveness, commitment to solving solutions and reliability.

Chris never oversold a solution to us but instead delivered quality fixes that have stood the test of time at a very reasonable price point.

If you are looking for an thoughtful plumber in Marin and based in San Anselmo who you can trust and who will get the job done in an intelligent, straight-forward manner we can highly recommend Chris.

Chris Roper is polite, respectful, competent, honest, responsible, punctual and flexible -- absolutely everything you want in a plumber. I called him for a second opinion after the first plumber that came out told me he needed to jackhammer the floor in my utility closet and replace broken pipes in the ground. Chris came out, said he thought the problem could be more easily resolved, then came back with his colleague and replaced the parts and fixtures with no jackhammering, replaced the sheetrock he had to remove and installed a new water heater. I was on the east coast while he was doing all this, and he called midway to give me a progress report, which I really appreciated. As long as Chris Roper is working, I will never call another plumber again because he's the best.

Chris at Tamalpais Plumbing is superb. We had a sewage line back up into our bathroom and it was getting pretty desperate. Several days of peeing at the grocery store across the street wasn't going to cut it anymore! We called Chris and he was so helpful. He took the info and quote we had gotten from another plumber and beat it by almost half! He scheduled us for the next morning. He showed up with a helper to dig out the pipe and replace it. We needed some additional work done and he did it in the same amount of time that was originally quoted. He even took some precautionary measures to make sure our sewer pipes dont back up into the house again. Stellar experience with our first plumbing catastrophe. Thank you Chris for helping us! We would recommend him to anyone needing plumbing services fast and at a great price!

I called Tamalpais Plumbing on the basis of the three other reviews that came before me and I was not disappointed.

Chris arrived on time during the designated time frame and placed a phone call to let us know he was on his way. We had two problematic toilets and one leaky faucet, which he seemed to fix with ease. He was in and out in less than an hour, even after taking care of a couple of related issues that were beyond the scope of the work.

Chris charged us such a reasonable price that we didn't feel right to try to redeem the $50 off coupon that we found in a local coupon mailer. We'll save that for another job as we now have a plumber we feel good about.

I'm sure you can appreciate the relief in finding a good, honest plumber. And to top it off, learning that an old friend and classmate is providing the service!

You may think I'm biased, but Chris Roper wouldn't hear of garnering unearned praise. He is a good guy, and it comes through in his professional service.

Today's job was not a big one, but the experience overall has been worthy of genuine praise. We called yesterday, and were offered a 2-hour window btwn 10-12 today. Chris called around 9:15 asking if he could come by earlier, which we gladly accepted.

Chris' laid-back, yet professional demeanor is a comfort in what can easily be a stressful situation. Most people think ""plumber"" is synonymous with ""bank account drainage"". Yes, plumbers can be expensive, and justly so. But we were offered a very fair rate for the job, along with the assurance that they were just a phone call away if needed.

That's all I have to say about that. By all means, shop around when considering any contracted service, but if you value good, honest work provided by a locally-owned and operated business, consider adding Tamalpais Plumbing to your rolodex.

Excellent! We use Chris at Tamalpias Plumbing on all of our remodels. So far, he has been the most competitively priced plumber we have received proposals from and has proven his worth with exceptional work. Timely, thorough and excellent with customer service.

Chris from Tamalpais Plumbing was simply amazing, I haven't had hot water for two weeks. I called Chris told him what I thought the problem was even ordered the part for him to install. He agreed with me at first but after further investigation realized he knew it had to be something else wrong. He investigated the problem, found it and solved it. Any other plumbing company could have charged an outrageous price for what he did, he was fair and honest. He broke it down in laymen terms. He is really good at what he does, I will never call another plumber again. He's my plumber for life.
