Great, Phill came out the next day and got us up and running again with hot water. He is honest, thorough and does the job right the first time. We have used him several times for various plumbing issues and have been very satisfied.

I believe this is my 7th time calling on Phill's plumbing. Gave a call to Phill at around 6 am this morning. Explained that I had a clogged kitchen sink. Probably needed to be snaked (not the first time it's happened). Phill quoted me a reasonable price and arrived about 4 hours later. He arrived wearing a mask, gloves and had his booties too. It only took him abou 40 mins to have the issue resolved. Phill was nice enough to answer a couple of plumbing questions that I had while he was fixing issue. He also gave me a couple of tips to prevent this from happening in the future. I will definitely contact Phill's Plumbing in the future if the need arises.

I have used Phill on several occasions and pleased every time. I had a severe drain blockage from where I did not know... With lots of hard work in two 2 hr plus sessions, Phill was able to clear the drain and all is good! I would recommend Phill's Plumbing and will hire him again when needed...

I was really impressed with Phill's Pluming, from the time I requested a quote through the final installation. Phill responded to my request quickly, and researched the facuet I was looking for. Within the same day I had a quote. He ordered the facuet and it was installed with a couple of days. His employee, Joe was on time, wore a face mask, covered his shoes, made sure my floor was covered, and completed the installation quickly. I was looking for a go to Plummer that I could trust and rely on, and I definitely found one. - Lml, Irvine

Went well. Its really good. Very knowledgeable. I bought my own faucet. He is knowledgeable about what would be the best water solutions for the home. Prices are reasonable. He would call us to let us know he was on his way.

When I contacted the owner, he was very rude and told me that he was currently on another job and could not take the time to talk with me. I understood and just asked him to call me at his convenience. Then he asked what I needed and as I started describing the situation he said it seemed It would be a long conversation and he could not take the time. I once again said he could just call me later and I left my number. He never called, never wrote and never bothered to communicate with me at all. He did say that he would come over to my house on a certain day but never bothered to follow through. This was upsetting to me because other companies wanted to work with me but I turned them down until I was able to meet with Phil’s

With all due respect, my phone records do not reflect that I had ever received a call from this person. I am quite diligent about taking/making notes on my phone calls and am unable to substantiate these claims. I am sorry that you had this experience and believe the claim should be pointed elsewhere.

He charged us $242 for less than an hour of work. The problem was a clocked stopper. I couldn't believe it. We paid, but it left a bad taste in our mouth.

I communicated with client as I proceeded through the process of correcting their drain issue. I showed my client the price book and gave him a price up front for the task as I understood his concern. (Powder-Room Lav sink drain not draining properly) I layed down protective towles inside the cabinet so as not to make a mess with either my equipment or the debris in the drain. Once I had the under sink drain line exposed I promptly began cabling the drain line. The drain was cabled using a Ridgid brand K-40 drain machine with a 50ft cable loaded in its drum. The cable effortlessly went down the drain. I did cable it twice thinking I must have missed a turn or something but again nothing obvious happened to suggest that I reached a and cleared a blockage. I removed my cable and rebuilt the under sink drain parts to test the drain. I turned on the water and almost immediately the water was slow to drain. My client at that time mentioned that he had just replaced the sink pop-up assembly so I inspected that installation. This particular assembly although installed properly was a budget style fixture and the components of the assembly were less than impressive and restricted the drain function. I suggested having the unit replaced with a better one that I could do immediately and he declined. I also for no charge provided my client with a new drain screen to use and removed the actual pop-up plunger. The drain worked like a charm. I thought he was pleased with the out-come . Obviously I was mistaken, but he sure seemed pleased. He was only charged for the work he authorised. Phill01/29/2019

Phill evaluated our main line which had burst due to someone stealing part of our copper piping. He redirected the line to the original main line and added a new shut off and pressure valve. We felt very comfortable that he knew what he was doing and his price was reasonable for the job he performed. Definitely would hire him again.

This is the 5th time I have used Phill's Plumbing over the past several years and it probably won't be the last. Contacted them about about a bad water heater and made an appointment to have them replace it two days later. They would have come out the next day but there was no rush since I was able to get the heater restarted. Joe came out a couple of days later and as did a great job of installing the new one. In speaking to Joe it turns out that we both graduated from the same high school - Kubasaki High, Okinawa , Japan. It is very much a small world. So as he was installing the new water heater, he updated me as to what was happening at our formal high school. Joe wrapped up by cleaning up and taking the old heater away. I will continue to use Phill's in the future because I have always felt that I'm getting honest advice, great results, for a fair price..

Joe cleared the sink drain and turned the water off because I needed a new faucet. The old one was leaking and it was an expensive faucet so the repair would be expensive. I needed a new faucet because that one was corroded. He also checked the toilet to see if the water flow was o.k. and it was. Next I went out to Home Depot and purchased another wide spread faucet. Called Joe and he came out to install it. He is very courteous and efficient. He answered all of my questions. I would definitely hire Phill's Plumbing again.

Phill of Phill’s Plumbing resolved my garbage disposal clog problem. He also took time to share some simple weekly maintenance tips, fixed a leak in the garbage disposal that I was unaware of, and added a supporting strap to the big outgoing pipe under my kitchen sink which builders are supposed to do. He definitely went above and beyond what I expected. I really appreciated that he drove in heavy traffic on a Saturday afternoon with very short notice. I highly recommend Phill’s Plumbing and will call on him again if needed.

I actually used Phil's Plumbing on 2 different occasions for 2 separate jobs. In both cases Phil was very friendly on the phone and provided very sound advice. For the first job service was provided by his assistant Joe who worked efficiently and analyzed the problem in an intelligent way. He was extremely polite and his work was carried out in a clean and expert way. He gave me some sound advice and didn't mind my asking questions. On the second occasion Phil came out himself and analyzed a complicated problem rapidly. He gave advice on coming up with a solution that minimized the cost. I was very impressed with these guys and plan to use them again. The pricing was fair and the skill was obvious.

Excellent. He arrived on time, worked very cleanly, did a great job, and the price was reasonable for the work done and time spent. Amount paid for work includes the cost of purchase of a new faucet, which Phil purchased. His communication on the work being done was perfect. Have recommended him to others.
