Recommended Customer Reviews

OK...My neighbor is a senior. She called me to look at her bathroom. I get there and it was DESTROYED! I am not even kidding. There was a company there for damned near a week. They destroyed her bathroom and was now going to charge her almost $10K to add a toilet and clear a drain. AND they NEVER cleared the drain! That didn't include putting the bathroom back together! A friend referred me to Water Wise and I called them. I asked all communication go through me after what happened to my neighbor regarding the other ""so called"" plumbers. Fred Jr said no problem. He sent Big Fred out to look at the problem, and destruction done to the bathroom. Big Fred not only apologized for the work the other plumbers did, but he said we will get this cleaned up. The Fred's, cleared and repaired her drain and they left her with a working shower at less than HALF the cost the other company quoted her. They are honest, reliable professionals that know their stuff! These guys truly take the time to make sure when they leave, you are absolutely not just satisfied, you are a happy RETURNING customer! You can't ask for more...Truly impressed by their magnificently detailed work!

Fred called first thing this morning in response to a message last night and Fred Sr was out here by 8:30...professional, efficient and reasonable. My plumber going forward...Good for you guys...a small business doing well!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Would highly recommend them. Excellent customer service and very friendly. Fred helped me out with my problem within 5 minutes of arriving!! Will definitely continue using them for all my plumbing problems.

Fred at waterwise is the go to guy! Excellent customer service and affordable prices. Will definitely be using their services in the future. Highly recommend.

Great friendly service. Showed up for appointment as promised and gave great service. Being reasonably priced was an added bonus. Will continue to use this plumber when needed.

I would highly recommend- very professional, prompt, thorough in explaining things and extra helpful. Love supporting local businesses, especially when the quality of service is this exceptional. Called with questions about my problem and Fred took time to answer and walk me through some of the solutions. I'd called a few other bigger companies and one wouldn't even give me a ballpark idea of price. We ultimately decided to change out the water heater and he was able to get me in right away to take care of it. Also love the 30 minute heads up and the value for the service was top notch. Also saved me a considerable amount over the other quotes I received.

Fred is amazing!!! I work for a property management company and know the difficulties of finding a reliable, affordable plumbing company. If that's what you're looking for as well, look no further!! Every time we've called he's gotten someone out there quickly, and the job is done perfectly! Our tenants are always happy with the work, and we're always happy with the price!! Will definitely continue using them!

Fred was really great to work with and he does such good work and is so trustworthy. I'm getting ready to call him again right now!

Waterwise is what customer service is all about. Fred was busy on another job but had his father at my house within the hour and had the job done within an hour as well. A1 service. Words can't explain just call him if you need help. Thank you for all you do. My name is Steve Aguirre 760 717 2188 if you absolutely need a reference.

Fred was recommended to me via Nextdoor and provided me with excellent and affordable service. I was quoted $300 from another plumber to fix a leaky hose bib in my backyard and Fred fixed two of them for me at a third of the cost in less than an hour. He answered his phone on the first call, came out within 24 hours, arrived within a 60 minute window and texted me 30 minutes out to let me know he was on his way. I would highly recommend and support this local and family owned business.
