My husband and I have been using Able Plumbing for seven years. Rob is a skilled master plumber and trustworthy. During the years, we have appreciated Rob's honesty when we have asked him if something needs to be replaced, and he has responded no, or not yet. His plumbers are professional and trustworthy as well. It is clear Rob has high standards for his company and his employees. Rob appreciates his loyal customers and will alter his busy schedule to accommodate them when possible, for example, when we recently had a clogged toilet. We highly recommend Able Plumbing.

I’m so happy to have found this company. The office manager Valerie was very pleasant to deal with, and the installer, Nelson, is a seasoned professional and very polite and personable. He did an excellent job and left the work site as clean as he’d found it. The price charged was excellent AND they did the work on a Sunday! I will definitely use them again.

I found Able Plumbing on Angie's List, and am so glad that I did. The process was as stress free as it gets, from scheduling a quote to getting the work done. Not only was the customer service excellent, but they did an excellent job on the installations. Everything was well explained, and they were friendly and honest. They did an A+ job, and I would not think twice about using Able Plumbing again.

The guys came in on time, and finished the job in about 35 minutes. They charged me $300 for the job, including $180 for labor and $120 for parts (an 8 inch copper pipe). Not very happy with their price. I Do Not Recommend them.

Excellent initial response time (0730 email response to 0500 inquiry) along with ability to replace gas water heater the next day (24 hour notice) Price was comparable to other's called while their response time beat EVERYONE. Plumber was on time and polite, did an excellent job. I WILL use them again.

Great. I called the owner and told him what I needed done and he gave me a rough quote over the phone. The plumber showed up on time and quickly got to work installing the shut-off valves. I was planning on then putting in the sink myself, but the plumber said it would be an easy install for him to do and so he did it for about $100. While I could have done it, the $100 was definitely worth it since it would have easily taken me a couple of hours and a few trips to Home Depot for parts and he did it in about 30 minutes. Sink works perfectly. This is the third time I have used Able Plumbing and each time has been great.
Description of Work: Able Plumbing came and installed two quarter-turn shut off valves on supply lines for a sink (the old sink didn't have any) and installed a new utility sink that I had purchased.

Used Able at least five times: replaced hot water heater; replaced disposal; replaced kitchen sink faucet; replaced basement sink faucet. I'm sure they've done more than that. Obviously, I keep calling them, so I'm pleased with the service.

Bottom Line Up Front - this was a great experience with an excellent provider who we recommend to anyone requiring Plumbing work. Late on a Saturday night we discovered a leaking pressure relief valve in the main supply line. On Sunday morning we contacted Able and were told that thier plumber would arrive around 4 PM. At around 3:30 we were notified that Nelson was on his way and he arrived right at 4. He diagnosed the issue and recommended that we replace not only the PRV but also the main water shut off as it was old and corroded. Two hours later we had a new shut off and PRV as well as about 3 ft of pipe. Nelson was professional, took time to explain what he was doing/had done and took the extra time to ensure that he cleaned up the work site. As this was a Sunday and we had no choice but to get it repaired we thought that this would be an expensive experience. It was not. PRV's are expensive and the entire job, performed on a Sunday afternoon was under $600. Whether you are facing a leak or are looking to have plumbing work done on a less-than-emergency basis we recommend that you give Able Plumbing a call.

Fantastic Job! Basement flooded and I needed a plumber in a hurry on Saturday night. After getting no contact from the emergency service of my normal plumber, I called Able. The scheduler was kind, understanding and scheduled me quickly for the morning. Henry the plumber was professional and fantastic. This is my new go-to plumber!

Very professional, well thought out prior to diving in. Having your home completely repiped is an enormous project. We had polybuteline pipe replaced due to it being very unstable (many cracks and leaks over the years). Able tried to minimize the amount of holes cut into the drywall, which was welcome. Very happy with all who were involved in the project.

Henry and Dylan showed up within the promised time line, had them go ahead and replace both hot and cold shut off's and inlet nuts. they replaced with quality components, it took them maybe 15 minutes and the price was very reasonable. Outstanding! I will definitely look to good job guys!

It went well. A bit expensive but the sump pump needed to be replaced and the location of the sump pump (behind a water heater) made it a but more difficult. Henri did a great job. He showed up ahead of schedule and worked diligently until the job was done.

Awesome! From the moment I spoke with Val, she worked with me and my work schedule to have Nelson come and repair the pipe and fitting the day after it happened! Timing is important to these small disasters as we also had to dry out the damage. Nelson was professional, polite, and a true master craftsman. Kept me informed through all the steps of the repair process. Work space was cleaned afterwards with great follow up advice to watch the repair for any leaks and call anytime if I had questions.

I was trying to get a plumbing company to hydrojet my kitchen sink drain since I repeatedly needed to have it snaked (both myself and a plumber). I called a couple other companies and they couldn't provide any details on the hydrojetting process. When I called Able, they gave me the owners number so that I could call him directly and ask questions. He was great and answered all my questions. The crew came out the next day and attempted to hydrojet the line, but couldn't get the tool far enough down the drain. This was a known problem with my drain as both other plumbers and I had struggled when snaking the drain before. When they couldn't do it, they rescheduled to come back the next day and replace a large section of the drain line (about 25 feet) including two new cleanouts. When they removed a large section of the drain line they were able to hydrojet the rest, revealing an insane amount of grease from the previous owner. It smelled awful, but Able was great about cleaning everything up. Our drain has since been working flawlessly, and I have two new drain cleanouts in the line, so that I can easily snake it with a handheld 25 foot snake in the future. The best part of all was that they didn't charge me for the first failed hydrojetting. They just charged the normal price for hydrojetting and drain line replacement when they came back. A+ all around.
