Recommended Customer Reviews

We called out a plumber from a competing company to assess a slow drain. The plumber determined that he would have to break open the wall to get to the clog, and they would be coming back the next day to give us an estimate and start the work. We were horrified. We had called this plumbing company in error, but were embarrassed to tell them and let them try to resolve the clog. Dreading having to tear out a shower wall, we called Zierman, who we had intended to call in the first place, and asked for a second opinion. They sent Darren out almost immediately. Darren was enthusiastic and kind. He worked at the problem and he SOLVED the problem without tearing out a wall! I want to thank Zierman, and Darren for saving us thousands of dollars and for being competent, positive, and courteous. We will make sure not to mis-dial again!!

After putting our home up for sale yesterday, came home to find the carpet soaked in the living room. When it rains, it pours - in this case, literally! My wife found Zierman Plumbing & Heating here on Yelp and called them. They said they would be there in 45 minutes - turned out they were there in 15! Chuck and Joe explained to my wife (I wasn't home yet) what to possibly expect in regards to damage and costs, then quickly found a leak in the wall that they repaired within 45 minutes! They minimized the mess they made and cleaned up what little they did make. Super friendly and professional. They took into account my former military service when they wrote up the charges for the repair - a bargain at twice the price, literally! Thanks, Chuck and Joe for saving us on a Friday evening (oh, and no overtime charge)!

I called earlier in the morning due to a leaky pipe and received a call back within the hour. Chico arrived and assessed the situation and was able to quickly locate the pin size hole and fixed the problem. Chico was very friendly and took the time to explain the situation and explained the options I had. I'd recommend Zierman's to anyone. Ask for Chico!

Great same day service! Couldn't ask for more!

I've received excellent customer service for many years. Today, Ziermans and Randy in particular went out of their way to help me with a problem. I'd recommend them highly.

You ever wake up and need a plumber right now? I was there this morning. I called my "" regular"" plumber and they couldn't get there before noon, so I called Zierman Plumbing 805-928-2511. They were there in 20 minutes. They're very pleasant to work with even when you're stressed out. I highly recommend this company. There are 2 listings similar names so I listed the phone number for clarification. They're our ""regular"" plumber now.

Great first experience with Zierman Plumbing! Randy was prompt, courteous, knowledgable and professional. He identified our problem immediately and fixed it very quickly. Couldn't be happier! No need for us to call anyone else in the future.

I need more stars! Chuck, you are the man! You worked around our restaurant schedule to be here when it would impact our business the least amount and you worked hard to get it done as quickly as possible. As a small business, unexpected costs can be detrimental, but you guys worked to keep the cost as low as possible (by going above and beyond to work with the manufacturer of our tank-less water heater) and you always have the best attitude. I never thought I'd be doing a Yelp review for a plumbing company but our experience with you all has been spectacular! If I were Chuck's boss, I'd do whatever I had to do to keep him on staff, he's the perfect person for the job!

Wow I have never ever been able to say or ever thought I would say that ""my plumber positively impacted my day."" THE plumber that's right! Chuck not only had the best customer service skills I've ever experienced in anyone at any business let alone plumbing, but he cares. He truly cares about fixing the problem at hand, making sure it doesn't happen again... He sets you up for success and walks you through the process so you know. Wow, just wow. I am so grateful. Chuck you are a miracle worker and I appreciate you and your service more than anything. Thank you! HIGHLY recommended! Chuck, Chuck, Chuck.

Chuck was our service guy- Absolutely the best service I have ever experienced from a plumbing contractor. They showed up within 15 minutes, assessed the problem, realized that there was another problem that was plain as day however we didn't see it and worked every warranty angle he could to get parts right away, and get it fixed so that we could be up and running again. They fixed it within an hour, very friendly, extremely professional, and actually cared. Thank you- Zierman Plumbing for being so awesome- from the team at 6 Degrees Coffee House & Eatery.
