Review and analyze now for company American Ace Plumbing Heating and Air Conditioning and provide the analysis in the discussed format for the following reviews: '''American Ace is the best! Fred is super responsive and was able to come take a look at our air conditioner that broke during the recent heat wave. He came the day after we contacted him, and worked with us to fix the issue quickly.
We ended up needing a new condenser and Fred worked with us to pick out the right one. Dima then installed the new unit and was very thorough.
There is no doubt Dima is one of the most knowledgeable air conditioning repair folks around! We were extremely satisfied with the overall service provided by American Ace, and would recommend them to anyone. I recently had Dima with the help of Justin, install an air conditioning split system in my office and garage, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the entire experience.
From start to finish, they exceeded my expectations in every way. First off, Dima's communication was outstanding--something that's unfortunately rare in the contracting world.
He was prompt in responding to my initial inquiry, provided a clear and detailed estimate, and kept me informed every step of the way. It's refreshing to work with professionals who prioritize keeping their clients in the loop.
On the day of installation, Dima and Justin arrived right on time, ready to get to work. They had everything they needed and were clearly well-prepared.
The installation itself was done with precision, following the manufacturer's specifications to the letter. Their attention to detail was evident, and they took great care to ensure everything was installed correctly.
What impressed me even more was how neatly they worked. They were meticulous, making sure everything was done to the highest standard and leaving no mess behind.
When they finished, the work site was spotless--almost as if they hadn't been there at all, except now I have a perfectly functioning air conditioning system! I highly recommend Dima and Justin for any HVAC needs. Their professionalism, communication, punctuality, and workmanship are top-notch.
I'll definitely be calling them for any future projects! Had faulty valves that needed fixing Called at night and Fred answered right away Show him photos of the issue via text Able to quote me via text Price was better than most Was here next morning Very clean and walked me through the process Respected the price quote Poway Business Fred became my plumber Fred, the owner of American Ace Plumbing, came highly recommended from my sister for my mom's AC repair. My sister has used him on several occasions for her HVAC needs.
He has been honest, straightforward, and efficient with his work, so we chose him to help with our mom's AC. My mom was very pleased with his quality of work and knowledge.
Fred was able to fix her broken AC. We can tell he takes pride in his work and the quality of his work, which is rare to find these days.
Once again Fred came through for me. I had used him before for A/C then plumbing, and recommended him to other family members who were just as satisfied.
This time my need was more urgent. My A/C had stopped working and an intense heat wave was on the horizon.
On the Sunday of Labor Day weekend I texted Fred with my problem hoping he would come out Tuesday. He responded immediately and came out first thing Monday morning and diagnosed the problem as the control panel in the furnace.
Since the furnace and A/C were long past their useful life I decided to replace both. Fred wasn't sure he could locate the equipment I wanted before the heat wave arrived (Friday) so he tried unsuccessfully to find a workaround for the furnace.
An hour or so after he left he called to let me know he had the equipment for the installation and would be out Friday of that week--the first day of the heat wave and a week earlier than his initial estimate. That same night (Monday) Fred showed up at my front door at 6:30 carrying a few short, electrical wires.
Apparently he had been working the furnace problem all day. Fred figured out a workaround for the busted furnace control panel and got my A/C working--which came in handy as temperatures increased throughout the week.
Justin and Dima arrived from American Ace at 7:45 that Friday morning and worked until nearly 5:30 that evening. Dima handled the A/C installation while Justin put in the new furnace.
Both did an excellent job and were good to work with (I had a couple requests). Fred popped in early on and then toward the end of the day to oversee the work.
The final price was exactly what Fred had estimated and I am happy with the value I received. The new A/C and furnace performed wonderfully during the extreme heat and I am quite grateful for Fred and my new equipment.
Fred goes the extra mile and has earned my trust. With this heat our air conditioning died.
I called on Saturday and Fred set up an appointment for Sunday. He let me know he could come earlier and very efficiently solved my problem.
109% recommend his services. We know Fred for a long time.
It started years ago when he did the plumbing works for my mom's condo. Then he did our house and my mother-in-law's house.
He became our personal plumber/air cond. guy.
Just today, he came to service our air conditioner during the hot weather. He came right when he said he would.
Fixed it! and just like that, everything goes back to normal. We trust his work and he always explains why it's broken.
Hopefully, we don't have broken things around the house, but if we do, we would surely call American Ace. Great service! I'm very pleased to work with Dima and will continue working with him in the future.
His work quality is excellent and his price is very reasonable. I strongly recommend him! Fred is awesome! He was able to accommodate for my garbage disposal swap out pretty quickly after my initial call, but since I have tenants it was a bit harder to coordinate.
However, Fred was very accommodating and provided additional time slots. His prices were very competitive.
The best one I found around the area. He was able to provide quote over the phone as well.
Payment wise I just sent it through zelle. Super convenient! 10/10 would recommend :) Wow-If you need a professional plumber or HVAC technician, call or text Fred at American Ace Plumbing, Its very satisfying to come across someone like Fred when there are so many imposters out there in San Diego that are only interested in a quick and easy profit.
I was installing a gas line from the meter to the back yard and required the AC unit moved to allow new concrete to be poured. Within days of the call, Fred sent one of his techs out to disconnect and move the AC.
A week later, Fred did a gas line to meter hookup and again, was prompt and professional. When the AC was ready to be moved back into place, Fred responded quickly and professionally to hook up the AC and perform a full checkout and test.
Very satisfied with the services provided by American Ace and the prices are fair and reasonable. Will use Fred again for future jobs requiring his expertise They installed an air conditioning system for us.I especially liked Dima as an installer, the work was done neatly and on time.The company boss Fred was also very responsible and answered all my questions and gave good advice.So if you need air conditioning service and repair, contact these guys, I recommend them.Because this company also does plumbing work.I contacted them again and received the same good service and prices.
Quick... Professional....
Fair price. Answered my call quickly and was able to work on my drain within the hour.
No extra charge for "right now" since he happen to have an opening. These are great guys! Good work, honest and professional.
The reviews are true! I needed to have my tankless water heater serviced, and after getting a pricey quote from another plumber, I decided to try Yelp and found American Ace. Fred answered my call right away, and he was able to fit me in the next day (which was a Saturday) for a very reasonable price.
He arrived on time and went right to work. Afterwards, he even helped me with a drain pipe that had been leaking at no extra charge.
Moreover, I really appreciated the no hassle and no upsell that other plumbers often do. You won't be disappointed with American Ace! Just had this company come to my house to attempt to solve a hot water issue after the property management's "handyman" failed to succeed.
I couldn't be more grateful and relieved that there are still industry magicians you can count on to get the job done. And these guys are those people! It was Fred and his assistant, not only did they show up earlier that expected (which is great!) but they were able to get the job done in quick fashion! 5 minutes after arrival I knew these guys were the real deal and I was confident they would solve the issue.
Sure enough they succeeded and now our house has hot water again. I would recommend this team to everybody! Thanks Fred! Everything went well.
Fred took care of us and we had our new water heater installed pretty quickly. These guys have done a few repairs for us and installed a new garbage disposal.
Work was well done at a fair price. I recommend this business.
Dmitriy and Justin recommended the best approach to replace my 30 year old broken HVAC system with no upscale, to the point. We selected effient system, calculated everything with engineering precision.
Installation crew was led by Dmitry and Justin, who did all the engineering work. They have high attention to detail and pride for the quality of their work.
Most importantly we were happy with the price as we had about 5 other estimates from other companies and they were not jyst cheaper, the best quality i wanted for my investment. Highly recommend! ? We received two other quotes for replacing a gas water heater, a Moen Flow shut off, a pressure control valve and some other shut off valves.
One of the other plumbers was going to charge us $89.00 just for an estimate. When I told then to forget it, I got a call a few minutes later saying they would wave that fee.
Both of the other estimates took a few days to receive. Both of the other estimates were "substantially" higher than American Ace.
When I called American Ace I spoke to Fred. He told me a tech would be out the next day.
A little while later the tech (Frank) asked if he could come that day. I was pleasantly surprised at the quick response.
When Frank showed up he was very knowledgeable, friendly and polite. I got a quote the next morning and I was once again pleasantly surprised at the quote.
Once I told them I agreed to the quote they came with a crew the next day! In this day and age of poor service and high prices that is unheard of. American Ace did all the work in a very professional manner.
They were all courteous and I was kept informed of the progress. The crew finished the job quickly and they cleaned up all the trash and left the work area as it was before.
I am not easily impressed but I certainly was in dealing with American Ace plumbing. I will defiantly use them for any of my plumbing needs in the future, they are the best.
Found American Ace Plumbing via Yelp. Contact Fred for a shower drain unblocking at 8am.
He was able to come same day-- time window between 11am and 2pm. He texted when he was on his way and arrived just after 11.
Clean truck, organized tools and supplies and wore shoe covers to protect the floors. I appreciate the little things.
Fred and a crew member got to work and snaked the drain. He had an industrial size powered auger that could go 60ft.
He got a handful of hair and gunk from the shower drain. Fred tested it thoroughly and unfortunately there still seemed to be a block.
He then proceeded to snake the bathroom sink and went pretty deep there too. He estimated about 40-45 feet.
There were some nervous moments when the line seemed stuck but it came out eventually. He also collected a bunch of hair from the sink line.
He explained that all the drain lines meet up and that's why he ran the shower, sink, and bathtub taps to see if they all drained properly and didn't back up the shower drain. Job done! Fred and his helper were professional and took the effort to lay down rags, buckets, and plastic sheets to keep surfaces protected and clean.
Had to pay extra for the sink snaking but it was understandable. Fair pricing overall.
They accept cash, check, and Zelle. After my own attempts to remedy the situation, it was clearly a job for the pros.
I'm glad I contacted Fred and American Ace Plumbing. Like most of the other reviews here, very happy with the service and would recommend them 100%.
I called Fred in the early afternoon to fix my AC because other places had appointments that were 2 weeks out. He was available 2 days away but he called later because he had time to come by the same day.
He had it fixed in less than an hour and was on his way to his next job. He was knowledgeable, experienced, and honest.
I will highly recommend him for any work. This is a true and honest company!!! Exceptional experience and a thorough job every time.
One of the best companies in all of San Diego Thankful for how easy it was to contact this business through Yelp and help my mom out with a broken pipe connection in her kitchen sink drain. Very great communication and quick to respond.
Clear, reasonable pricing. Fred and his team are awesome.
High quality work and great customer service. Highly recommended! Outstanding from start to finish.
Fred is such a stand up guy. Great to know good people still exist out there.
After working with him I'll never go anywhere else for plumbing or HVAC related work. Honest and fairly priced.
I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Don't waste your time looking elsewhere.
Call them. You won't regret it.
I had an emergency situation. The owner Fred responded to me on Saturday early morning.
I sent some pictures to show him what's going on. Then I called him.
Fred said he was busy for the day, but he said he will contact one of his guys. Within 10 minutes or so, Frank sent me a text message and gave me quote.
he said he could come in within an hour and he did. Frank and Jay finished the job quickly.
They were both very polite, friendly, and professional. The fee was reasonable and exactly what he offered in the beginning.
It was a very pleasant experience. I really recommend this business.
Thank you very much! We woke up early this morning to a pipe leak destroying our ceiling! I found Fred on Yelp and called him at 7am. He was able to come by at 9:40am and fix it upon identifying the problem immediately.
Fred and his partner were professional, quick and skilled. I recommend going with Fred for your plumbing issues.
Fred and team did an excellent job in quickly responding within a day to unclog a toilet that was beyond the reach of my 6ft auger at greater than 30 feet down the line. Very organized, clean, efficient, and reasonable priced.
Thank you Fred and team. Love that this company responded to me asap with a timeframe of when they are available.
Thank you!!! I can't begin to list the amount of times Fred and his team has come to rescue our home. From a clogged toilet to a broken down AC to a water leak with our HVAC.
He's incredibly responsive, a straight shooter, fair with his prices and I know I can trust him. Thank you, thank you for always finding the time when I'm in a pinch.
They go above and beyond and at a seriously fast and responsive rate. Fred has saved me THOUSANDS of dollars as many other companies I've contacted have tried to talk me into solutions that were unnecessary and avoidable.
Will continue to use American Ace and will refer to my neighbors. I've never done a tankless water heater flush before.
Ours is due, and glad that I came across their service. The job is straightforward.
Fred showed up on time, set up his kit, and all was done in about 45 min. Spent time chatting with him during the cleaning process.
Seem like a very nice and respectable professional. I recommend Fred if you need the same service.
Very reasonable pricing as well! Other quotes I received were surprisingly high. Fred, the owner of American Ace Plumbing Heating and Air Conditioning, just saved me $12,000.
HONEST, RELIABLE, TIMELY, CONSIDERATE, PATIENT, FAIR PRICING, QUALITY WORK. My condo was built in 1992, so it's now that time when things need to be replaced or upgraded.
Fred came by to see if he could identify the shower valve cartridge, but there were no markings as it is the original valve installed back in 1992. Fred let me know that he would need to cut a larger opening into the tile and then, cover it with a larger valve cover/ shower handle.
He also let me know that I needed to have a backup plan, since I live in a 1/1, in the event it was more than just the valve that needed replacing. He said, "This could open up a whole can of worms." I am so grateful that Fred was honest and cared whether or not I had a bathroom to use, and made me aware that changing a shower valve is not like changing a bathroom sink faucet (which he had done on the previous visit).
I found out that it can take 2 months to order a new shower/tub liner at a minimum cost of $10k-$12k. I got a backup plan in place and then, Fred returned to change the shower valve.
Fred told me that he was unable to replace the flex piping with copper as that would have required breaking open the tile wall, but he was able to replace the shower valve, confirm there are no leaks, and replace the original valve cover/shower handle with a new Moen one. I was bracing myself to see an ugly but functional valve cover/ shower handle; maybe even a stainless-steel plate on the shower wall.
I am exceedingly pleased that it is a "normal" looking valve cover; just bigger and an oval instead of a circle. Fred even chose a chrome finish, which is the finish on all my other fixtures, so it matches.
This repair/replacement exceeded all my expectations and I am so very happy that I will not have to renovate my bathroom ahead of my timeline as that would be a big financial burden for me. Note: When I posted a photo of the valve cover online to see if anyone recognized it, I had other plumbers quote prices almost double what Fred charged me.
One plumber even said there is a $750 fee to turn off the water to the building; a lever that is located under my stairs. And, not one of them mentioned that when you change a shower valve you need to cut the tile or be prepared for unexpected findings inside the wall once it is opened up.
Fred does not charge a trip/service fee. He is a 24-hour plumber.
He accepts payment by cash, Zelle or check. I will only be using Fred for any plumbing needs I have moving forward.
Daniel was great! He came out to check the unit and advised there' was nothing wrong with the unit. Honest company and we will call them if we need anything.
We requested AC service and had it repaired in the same day. Quick diagnostic, and attention to detail on all work done.
Highly recommended. This was our second time using Fred at American Ace, the first being 10 years ago.
Our old AC was struggling to keep the house cool and I knew it needed servicing. I used Yelp for multiple quotes and most replied quickly.
Fred was the only one that provided with a real quote (service rate + material cost), plus he was able to come out the next morning. He and a helper arrived at 8am, showed me what he was doing, and finished in around 20 minutes.
My AC blows super cold again. Just note, he asks to pay by means other than credit card due to transaction fees, and I gladly paid him by Zelle as he was packing up.
This company is the best! We had them fix four plumbing issues at our house. They got it all done fast, were efficient, and extremely professional.
Knowledgeable, reliable, and fairly priced. We will definitely be using them again.
Great experience & repairs. I received multiple bids for toilet installation through yelp and went with this business because it was most reasonably priced and for its great reviews.
Fred was super prompt to respond on Yelp and offered to pick up the home depot ordered toilet for installation. Pricing was straightforward and no fancy marketing and mark up of labor compared to other plumbers.
Despite being away from home he promptly arrived at the scheduled time window, communicated ahead and got the job done in short time. I was informed all through the process.
I trusted him to deliver as promised and he did despite not being present for installation. Thank you Fred for the super prompt service at a superb price.
Will definitely call him for future upgrades/ issues. My husband came home at lunch and noticed the water heater was making a funny noise.
We then realized it was leaking water too. It's 8.5 years old, so we figured it was time to replace it though we knew that probably meant days without hot water.
Not at all! We immediately called Fred and he was here within an hour and we had a top-of-the-line water heater installed and ready to go by 6:00 pm. Unbelievably fast service and what a huge inconvenience Fred and his team saved us! He did a job for us this time last year (slab leak) and was wonderful for that too.
I won't hesitate to call Fred again. It happens usually during hot summer days that AC stops producing cold air.
Called for service. A technician Dima Petrovskyy came the same day.
Easily and quickly diagnosed the issue. Made repairs and replaced my AC filters.
Very reasonable price and same day repair. Thank you.
Very happy customer. Fred is the best! I contacted Fred and the next morning he was at my dad's house, helping repair a furnace that no longer heated.
He diagnosed the problem quickly, repaired it, and tested it multiple times before leaving. Plus he is such a nice guy! There are a LOT of less than honest HVAC/Plumbers out there, believe me, we had contact with a few before we were lucky enough to find Fred.
Fred will definitely be my go to for any HVAC or plumbing. I've used American Ace and Fred twice since moving to San Diego and he's always come over quickly to diagnose and fix the issues.
The last time, a bad display unit was installed and Fred came back and replaced the faulty unit no problem. I appreciate his customer service and dedication to making sure your housing appliances are working perfectly.
Usually quick availability and fair prices. Reached out to Fred to replace a 19 year old AC unit.
After checking out the old unit and furnace he provided an estimate and scheduled the work a week later. Fred and his team does excellent work and Fred was always onsite checking the work and making sure it was done correctly.
New AC unit works great. Couldn't be happier.
We had virtually no water coming to the house. The team did some troubleshooting over the phone, showed up and got straight to work.
They not only restored service, but improved the water pressure by replacing the regulator. They were fast and efficient.
I would definitely hire again. (North County, San Diego, Carmel Valley) Fred is great! I contacted him to check water pressure in my house.
He replied within an hour and stopped by my house later that day to take care of the issue. Communication was great.
I would use his service again. We asked around for several quotes for a new heating/ac system.
All of them gave us outrageous numbers. My husband did his own calculations on material costs so he had an idea of what would be reasonable.
Fred was the most reasonable and most responsive. We loved that he wasn't "sales-y" aka pushy about getting our business.
He is honest and reliable. He brought one of his technicians, Dima, with him to the first visit.
They talked openly about where they would run the lines, etc. It was an awesome first impression.
They are truly professionals! Initially, we were thinking the system wouldn't be installed until February or March, but Fred was able to obtain all of the parts and have Dima start the install within a couple of weeks. The job was to install mini split systems in 4 of the rooms instead of the traditional central HVAC system.
It's more work that way, but most energy efficient for us. Dima did a fantastic job with the installs.
Much better than what we expected. On top of Dima's professionalism, he was super considerate and respectful of our child's nap times by doing all the non-drilling work during her naps.
I'd definitely recommend Fred and Dima :) After the old water heater burst and soaked the drywall, and the damage was renovated, I hired American Ace Plumbing to reinstall the new water heater. Fred and his crew did an excellent job, completing the job promptly and meeting the code requirements.
This is no job for amateurs! See the attached photo. Thanks to Fred and crew.
Had kitchen faucet installed. Great work, prompt same-day service, thumbs up.
Also received helpful recommendations. My friend recommended this company and it was a good decision to work with them.
Dima was very responsive, answered all questions thoroughly and did a great quality job replacing our old HVAC system. Throughout the process we felt that our needs were prioritized and and were getting full attention.
I highly recommend these professionals. Good company.
The first video they took of the water and sewage pipes was lost. They had to come back and do it again.
Fred is AMAZING! Our A/C unit stopped working suddenly today. I figured that we were in for a $1000.
repair based of what my neighbors have been spending on A/C repairs. Called Fred and he was able to be at my house in 15 minutes.
He took 4 screws off exterior unit and used a tester to see if an electrical part was functional. Gave me a price to replace defective part ($195) AND was very clear this could be just the beginning but we needed to do it first.
I agreed to the price, he replaced it within a few minutes. He then came into the home and explained what the air conditioner should be able to cool the air and if it doesn't then we would need to look into further money spent.
Showed me the readings on the temperature and told me our system is running as expected. I WILL NEVER USE ANOTHER COMPANY FOR MY HVAC EVER AGAIN.
For that matter, I will never use another company for Plumbing issues other than Fred. Fred is a professional and an HONEST business owner.
My home is a 7 year old home and 4 of my other neighbors have recently spent over $1000 to supposedly fix this exact issue! Thank you FRED for being a honest business owner and fixing our issue quickly and professionally. Okay, so if I could give Fred six stars, I absolutely would.
I called several plumbers regarding a leaky toilet on Thursday morning. None of them (including Fred) had any availability that day, but he had the earliest availability which was Friday between 4-6PM.
He asked me to text him my address, which I did... except I accidentally texted the wrong number.
(Sad trombone.) I didn't figure this out until Friday at 5:45 PM. (The people who I *did* text neglected to let me know that I had the wrong number.) At that point I called Fred, explained what had happened, and he sweetly offered to come out on Saturday between 3-5.
He also asked me to send him some photos of the leaky toilet. He came right on time (shortly after three) and immediately diagnosed the problem.
I told him that we're planning to remodel that bathroom and he said that we could either fix it or simply turn off the water to that toilet until we demo the bathroom. (We chose to do the latter.) He also gave us some advice on an unrelated issue which he spotted in the pictures that I had sent.
Despite our protests he refused to charge us a fee for the visit because he didn't fix anything. This is clearly a man who is invested in his work, takes a lot of pride in it, and knows his stuff.
I will absolutely be contacting him for my plumbing needs in the future. Our air conditioner broke last night.
I needed it fixed ASAP because I could not sleep. Called our normal place and couldn't come out until next week.
I called this company because of his glowing reviews. He said he would come at 6:00 PM the same day and he was able to come at 3:30 PM.
Fred was quickly able to diagnose the problem. He didn't have the part in his truck but he drove to his place of business and got the part.
He was back here in 10 minutes and installed the part. The total repair took approximately 30 minutes.
Nice guy and reasonably priced especially for same day service! We have now asked him for a quote to replace our HVAC unit. Definitely a Godsend! The price was fair and the work was done well.
If I had one recommendation, it would be to bring drop cloths since we have new carpet upstairs. We ended up using our own, so it was not a big deal.
Fred replaced a delta cartridge in our master shower. The set screw and ring were stuck due to the hard water deposits from SD water.
i called to inquire for business and your rude representative hung up. he could not handle the questions i was inquiring on.
he hangs up instead of deferring to a professional. your employees are a reflection of your company.
if this is how your employees are then doing business is not recommended. improve your customer care quality or train that employee! stay away!! EVEN WORSE.
HE'S THE OWNER. EDIT: Frank called me to resolve the issue that occurred with Fred.
With what seemed to be an in-genuine call at first just to get the review removed/fixed, I am fixing this review due to his best efforts. He did his best to defuse the situation and straighten things out.
While this should not have occurred in the first place, I am willing to give this company a chance at business. This is my honest review.
Thanks. 4 stars for efforts.
Very responsive. Reasonable prices.
They replaced the connectors to the gas for our dryer. Pretty good job.
Was nice they showed the meter/measure before and after. Very good and reassuring.
Funny to hear the one guy yelling at the other, probably their way of communicating... seemed like good guys.
Give them a try! I used American Ace when I had a water leak and was very satisfied with the service so when I woke up to find out my furnace quit working I called American. I left a voice mail and 15 minutes later Fred called me back and said he could be here in 2 hours to 5 hours.
After an hour and a half I got a call from Fred saying he was at the front door. Fred got my furnace running again in no time.
He is knowledgeable, experienced and above all I found him to be trustworthy. I was an industrial electrician for 35 years.
I have no experience with HVAC and it was out of my comfort zone to try to fix it myself but I know enough to know when someone is blowing smoke up my......Not Fred. He is a straight shooter and tells it like it is.
Plus, the cost was very reasonable. You cannot go wrong with this company.
Super responsive and reliable. I feel comfortable with using American Ace Plumbing and they have become my go to for anything plumbing and HVAC related.
Our kitchen sink was backing up (had been since we moved into this house a year ago) so we thought we needed to install brand new pipes. They checked it out, said pipes looked fine, and they flushed out the drain.
We never put any food down, but apparently we put grease because that's what flushed out. Sink drains easily now.
Gave me the price estimates upfront and were efficient. Sink clogged on Saturday before next day party after Bill Howe allegedly fixed earlier that month.
Called BH - never called me back! Local guy in San Marcos we've used multiple times for many big jobs never called back. A couple others who claimed 24/7 service said they could come Monday.
But Fred came first thing next morning and did a thorough job at a very fair price and offered advice to stop from happening again The owner shows up 12 hours after you call on a weekend? Now that's service! Highly recommend! I contacted American Ace because of their great reviews on Yelp. I wasn't disappointed.
They responded to mu inquiry very quickly and were able to come take care of the repairs needed within a day. They were very professional, their prices are reasonable (I should have been a plumber), and they just send me an invoice by e-mail since they didn't take payment at the time of the repairs.
Good guys, honest, reliable and professional! I'm keeping their information handy for next time. Fred at American Ace took care of re-plumbing my whole house about two and a half years ago.
They did a great job and I've had no issues. Recently converted my water heater to tankless as well and did an awesome job.
Always responds quickly and does quality work. I've used him several times and Fred is terrific.
The AC was dripping through the secondary line because the main line was clogged. I called another AC company to check it out.
They came and flushed the line but they blamed a plumbing under the sink for it and they charged me $240 without fixing it. I found a plumber to look at it but plumber said it was ok and there is no piping issues under the sink.
I decided to give it another shot and reached out to American Ace plumbing for diagnosis and fixing. Fred showed up and used vacuum to clear and clean the line.
He charged me only $140. The line is open and there is no dripping.
Great job to Fred for taking care of this in less than 30 minutes and charging me at such a great price. I highly recommend this company and inn future i will be using them and recommending them to others.
Woke up this morning to a leak from the pipe connected to our washing machine. Called Fred from American Ace and he said they could come out this afternoon, and we're here by 1pm & done fixed in less than an hour.
Fred & his assistant were super professional, both wore masks & shoe covers, and took care of everything! Highly recommend. Fred was very nice and showed up today on Sunday in the middle of a heat wave.
He was very professional and helpful. We appreciated his willing to come out on a weekend and fixing our AC.
Thank you American Ace Plumbing replaced our toilet along with additional minor plumbing repairs. They were very professional with the entire installation process.
We had several quotes from other plumbing companies, and they were all priced higher than American Ace Plumbing. We would recommend using American Ace Plumbing because we can trust them to provide an honest assessment, and they are well experienced to do a good job.
Punctual, Knowledgeable & Reasonable Prices In addition that one of my bathrooms had a single handle bathtub faucet leak; I was also searching for a new plumber. I'm always doing home improvement & search for good contractors.
I text called a number of contractors. Each handed me a minimum & a maximum amount or they wanted to come over for free estimate.
Fred was the only one who responded with an exact diagnosis, pinpointed the part needed & how much it costs! I asked him to schedule me. He showed up on the dot & he fixed the problem rapidly.
He quickly replaced the cartridge & he did not have to replace the valve. No digging & cutting tiles was needed.
Fred pinpointed the problem in the text & in person. No beating around the bush, no wasting of his or my time, simple & brief, fast work & good service.
Fred's prices are reasonable & he has been doing this for over 15 years. He has all types of certificates & he took all types of courses in his field.
American Ace Plumbing does various heating, air-conditioning & plumbing jobs. Fred has a number of employees which he trained well.
They do everything from drain cleaning, faucet installation, toilet installation, pipe installation, garbage disposal installation, bathtub & shower, A/C, Heater, thermostat, all the way to swear service, gas & electric furnace. They repair & install all types of plumbing fixtures, appliances & service them.
They work long hours from 6:30 AM to 11:45 PM and are always on the call for emergencies. Before I hired him, I ran a journalistic background check, BBB, Licensing, insurance, bond & read reviews on him.
Fred is a top notch contractor with a great history & many satisfied clients. This guy does not hand you stories of 1001 nights, nor beats around the bush.
He pinpoints the problem & tells you how much it cost. He fixes the problem quickly & makes sure that you are satisfied to become a return customer.
Don't try to beat his prices because I had already checked around & he is very competitive. I was mostly impressed about Fred's punctuality, knowledge & fast service.
It is very important for me to have a contractor who is on the dot. I learned some interesting plumbing hints from him.
I like to always learn at least one thing from my contractors. He informed me of a plumbing technical fact about cartridges which I was not aware of & he showed me how to set my cartridge temperature upon my liking from cold to hot degrees.
Fred knows his stuff. I believe I found my new plumber.
Check him out because I have already test drove his work & he passed my perfectionist test. My home came with an older AC unit and furnace.
I've relied on Fred and team to check on them every year and they've done a great job with maintenance and never trying to upsell me. While I'm glad my old units are still running without any issues, I wouldn't hesitate to work with them when it's time for replacements.
My garage disposal was out, They came out and had it replaced Bout 45 minutes, it working fine. Fred is the best plumber I've found in over twenty years.
He was excellent in his service, communication was fast and he responded quicker than anybody when I had a plumbing situation suddenly appear with my water heater. I will call American Ace Plumbing for all of my plumbing needs from now on.
Thank you for helping me, Fred, I appreciate you! Got a new stove and it didn't fit because of the gas line. Fred came in and made it fit with no damage to the wall.
Fred came in and got the work done with no extra or hidden charges. Highly recommend American Ace.
Fred is very knowledgable. Prices are fair.
He can usually show up on short notice and get the job done promptly. American Ace serviced our HVAC system over a number of years and replaced it when it finally died.
We are very happy with the result. They did a valve replacement for my shower.
They had the best price out of a few quotes that I got and were able to come quickly. Thank you.
My house is about 20 years old and I've lived in it for 5 years. I called American Ace the first time I had a leaking sink and have been calling them back ever since for all of my plumbing and air conditioning needs.
Fred is very responsive via phone or text and is usually able to schedule with me promptly. His work is always great and I've appreciated his advice regarding how much life a plumbing fixture or AC unit has left in it so I can plan accordingly.
I recently had him replace a 3-ton HVAC system for the upstairs, even with carrying everything up and down his crew completed the job in less than two days and the price was very fair. If you live in the service area I highly recommend American Ace! It was a sudden emergency! In the morning, I noticed that our 36 year-old water pressure regulator in the garage had started dripping.
By afternoon, a steady stream of water was pouring out of it, so I closed the main water shut-off valve and then turned to Yelp to find a plumber in our general area who could come pronto. The first three were unable to send a plumber for several days, then I got in touch with Fred of American Ace Plumbing.
He is local and said he could come soon, but in the meantime asked that I text him a photo of the failed device. A few minutes later, he texted back with an estimate.
I don't know whether or not it was competitive, but I had nothing to compare it with and quick action was needed anyway, so I accepted. Fred showed up less than 2 hours later with a replacement regulator and got to work.
It was necessary for him to replace the copper pipe into which the old regulator was installed, which he did in a professional manner (I've done a little copper pipe soldering in my time). He finished the job in a little less than an hour and I am pleased with finished job.
The new regulator is all metal as opposed to the original which was plastic. I must say I was impressed with his forethought in asking for a photo and his efficiency in bringing a replacement.
Fred was courteous and very responsive, especially for a weekend urgent need. Professional and reliable! Our AC fan outsode our house spinning on Friday afternoon.
Fred was able to come over in a couple of hours and correctly diagnose the issue. He successfully did the repair the next day and the AC now works great.
Fred is also an amazing teacher who explains the AC mechanism in an easy to understand manner. I just felt after this experience that it was more than a transaction- Fed took ownership and personal responsibility in getting the job done in a cost efficient manner.
I heartily recommend this company and the owner, Fred. We had Fred come out due to our shower leaking.
He was able to come out the same day & charged a reasonable price. Would highly recommend this company!! We'll use this company for any future plumbing needs.
excellent service. Fred is a guy who I can trust with his work and his pricing.
Thanks. Fred is amazing.
I had a water leak in garage from the AC unit above the furnace. He diagnosed the issue and fixed it without any complication/drama within 15mins.
He also brought his team and made 2nd trip to do more detail measurement in case the AC unit has to be replaced since it is quite old and it's not easy to install new units. The best part for me is he explained to me all my options so I can make my own decision.
Yes, I made a yelp account just to review Fred, who provides excellent and reliable service. And on top of that, his work is also very reasonably priced.
In our home, we had water hammer pipes. Several plumbers over the past few years have tried to diagnose and solve the issue, but couldn't find a solution.
But this week Fred took a look at the pipes causing the problem, and in about an hour, fixed and stabilized the pipes causing the issue. The water hammering is now nearly nonexistent.
I'm so grateful for Fred and his team's ability to quickly and efficiently address a problem. San Diego is lucky to have Fred doing great work here.'''.
