LEONARD'S PLUMBING & CONSTRUCTION

He was very friendly and professional. He was very neat and cleaned up up his work area. Everything turned out fantastic. He completed the job quicker than I expected.

Leonard is the best, most competent plumber I've used. I highly recommend him.

He was always careful and his prices are good, based on the services that he has performed. He was timely and was here very swiftly when I needed him. He made good recommendations. My daughter has used him as well.

Leonard came on time the next day as scheduled, located the blockage, and used a power snake to remove a large mass of invasive tree roots, flushed the line and cleaned up his work area.
I was not surprised because over the past six years, Leonard has replaced a water heater, repaired a shower, replaced two toilets, replaced a laundry sink, replaced a kitchen faucet, installed freeze-proof exterior faucets, and installed new water pipe throughout our 1923 Alameda home all according to code and always completely professional and pleasant. His invoices are consistently competitive and lower than estimates. I believe Leonard is the expert plumber everyone is hoping to find.

Leonard called before he came and showed up early.  He worked fast, answered all questions and even helped me find my water meter (its a new house).  He installed a new water line for fridge in the wall without leaving me any drywall repairs.  He also capped off all lines and removed an old water heater in basement.  Great job.

Leonard was able to come over with just a few hours notice to take care of our leaking Kohler toilet and shower drain. The toilet is 30 years old and has parts that cannot be replaced. I had the exact same problem with an identical toilet in our home and the plumber we hired to fix that problem said that the entire toilet had to replaced which ended up costing us $650! Fortunately Leonard saved the day and was able to replace a flapper ball which the other guy said couldn't be done. While he was there I also mentioned that the drain in our master bath shower was leaking. Leonard was able to fix it, and replaced our old PVC drain with a nice stainless steel drain. Now it looks better, and no more leaks! I was pleased with the job he did because it was all done correctly, with minimal hassle for a fair price.

Went great. Leonard was there on time and worked to make sure we had water at the end of the day. Professional and easy to work with.

I am very disappointed.

We called Leonard, as we had used him previously on a different project and appreciated his work and his price was fair. When he came out he couldn't really commit to an estimate, as he says he charges by the hour not the job. We had another estimate... so we had a good sense of the work that would need to be done. Unfortunately, Leonard split it up into a few trips to the job site and rounded the time up... AND tacked on 30 minutes travel time for each trip, which we didn't find out until we got the final bill. Learning for us is to ensure that you get the estimate in writing... if we would have gone w/ the company that did give us a written estimate, instead of using someone we thought we could trust -- we would have saved $1000.

Called Leonard early on Saturday morning. He said he could be at the house in an hour. He arrived on time. The first thing he did upon coming in the house was to remove his shoes before walking on the carpet. I showed him the problem areas, he assessed the problem, and had the drains cleared in about 90 minutes. Leonard was polite, good listener, and a great worker.

After buying a kitchen faucet I found that I was too creaky and stiff to get under the sink myself. Leonard answered the phone and was here within an hour. His quoted rate is $85 per hour and I expected about an hour's work. It took two, mostly because the faucet I supplied was not very good, and because the drain pipe needed replacing too. The drain required about $8 in parts. Leonard left his shoes at the door, and left the work area clean and dry. He was personable and direct, and did everything I expected from a top-notch professional. I felt he gave good advice (which I did not always follow), and took care of the job quickly and competently.

Our hot water tank was leaking, so we called a plumber that we had used before. We learned that he no longer worked in the Portland area and he recommended Leonard's Plumbing. I called Leonard, who answered the phone right away, and made arrangements to come over that day. He arrived when he said he would and was able to quickly analyze the problem and make the repair. He also informed us that the underlying cause of the problem was related to old galvanized pipes that would probably need to be replaced. Although this was not good news, we appreciated that he took the time and effort to look beyond the immediate issue. He was very pleasant, friendly and professional. We will definitely call Leonard again.
