Albert Nahman Plumbing & Heating, Plumber in BERKELEY, CA

The Service very good. Carrie was the best. a very good service all around.

Plumber was presentable and personable. He identified the issue immediately. He suggested a simple solution rather than the complicated one the homeowner envisioned. And he had the part needed in his well stocked truck. Installation of the part took a reasonable time. Job completed in a single visit. Excellent service.

So Far Mike came out and gave us an estimate. Mike was extremely helpful and had some great ideas for solving our problems with the project with and eye to saving money. Thank Mike Mike was on time friendly and very professional.

The technician was courteous and competent. He told us the price and got our approval before he started the job. He also pointed out another problem (a leaky water line) and replaced that as well (exact charge of course). I am pleased with his work.

I hired a plumber to perform two jobs. First, fix a leaky Delta faucet. Plumber replaced cartridge in bad handle which apparentley solved problem. Unfortunately, leak shifted to left side and plumber had to return to fix other side the next day at no extra charge. Job 2 was to replace an old toilet. Plumber helped me to buy a good model and installed in about an hour. No problems since then and the toilet is a huge improvement over the original cheap model which came with the house. Lesson: take your time in deciding what features you want on the toilet because you will live with them (seat height and style, toilet flushing power, etc). It does no good to go low flow if one flusb will not do the job. In fact, you will end up wasting more energy and money. Solid, reliable company with 30 years in business who guarantees their work.

Very quick job. An O-ring was destroyed and a replacement could not be found so a new supply line was installed in order to solve the problem and improve the system. Service rep was very polite and informative. In my opinion, just a bit on the expensive side for what was done though.

From my husband's perspective: he was the person home in charge of the plumber. I did the research and logistical arrangements. Plumber arrived on time and did a good job. Finished job as projected, a little under 2 hours. He installed new alum plumbing to the in sink disposal. As expected, the new disposal is much quieter than the old cranky one. We ran the dish washer and it sounded like the plumbing drained better. In the past, the dish washer drained with a loud gurgling. As for the booking, etc. They were quick and efficient. I asked if they would consider waving the travel fee if we proceed with the job. I also asked for an estimate, based on previous jobs they've done, 1. for complete replacement, and 2. if they were to repair the disposal, i.e. gasket replacement, etc. They gave me the estimate without a hitch. I might go back to them again. If they are local, i.e. in Castro Valley, I would not have a second thought to go back to them.

Took least intrusive approach and provided detailed explanation of work and costs.
