Review and analyze now for company Hamzeh Plumbing and provide the analysis in the discussed format for the following reviews: '''We have continued to have reliable, professional, and fantastic service with Hamzeh. He is our go to for plumbing needs.
While watering the yard outside this morning, I realized that one of our outdoor faucets was having a large leak. In over half an hour it had filled a bucket up! I called Hamzeh and he arrived within an hour.
He helped replace the faucet as well as made adjustments to another faucet that was unsecured. He clearly explained his process in his work and answered any questions we had.
We appreciate him looking out for us! With my busy schedule at work, I am so grateful for having a professional make these changes as soon as possible. I'm sure our water bill would have been enormous without his support.
Hamzeh does great work and I always trust his expertise. Check him out if you're needing plumbing services! Here you will have someone who you can trust to give the proper advise and fix the problem.
I had a peoblem with my toilet which needed to be replaced. He presented all the options and we chose to go the less pricy route.
Problem was fixed and have had no other issues. Professional and will use them again for any plumbing needs.
GREAT plumber We have found Hamzeh to be a great plumber and have hired him twice over the past 5 years. He is fair, friendly, very responsive, and professional.
This time we had a leak in one of our bathrooms. He was spot on with his estimate of how long he thought the job would take and made sure his work was successful before leaving.
His recommendations also focused on being practical and saving costs. We are so thankful to have a trustworthy plumber that charges a fair price for the work.
Hamzeh will definitely be our go-to plumber going forward! Absolutely the best plumber around. Professional, knowledgeable, mindful of costs and goes the extra mile.
Recommend without reservation. Easy to talk to, fast to respond, on time, and fixed the main sewer line problem on a Saturday.
Hamzeh is recommended! Very very very expensive ! Never again. Don't call for free estimate as his total price will be much higher then any plumber hourly charge Hamzeh has helped with two problems in expert fashion! First was repairing a mess of a bathroom sink piping job by old owner and the second was fixing the hot water flow of our kitchen sink.
He was super personable, on time, and clean. During the kitchen sink job he noticed some tubing didn't have clamps, so he pointed it out and even added one for us as a courtesy.
Fair pricing. Totally recommend! I needed something fixed in my shower in my condo and called Stephen Plumbing Services.
The number was answered by Bell Plumbing. When they came out someone from Smelly Mel's Plumbing showed up.
They gave me an estimate and I felt it was high plus I wasn't sure what company I was actually dealing with. I called around to get a few more estimates so I called First Call Plumbing.
They were 'too busy' and brushed me off. Then I called James Caccia Plumbing and their receptionist told me they don't do any work in HOA buildings.
I called Hamzeh Plumbing and to my surprise, Hamzeh himself answered the phone. I described the problem and sent him a few pictures.
He understood what the problem was and was at my place later that morning. He fixed the problem and charged my much less that what I was previously quoted along with a one year warranty.
Hamzeh is a great guy and promptly fixed my problem. I always prefer to support smaller companies (or the individual in this case).
I highly recommend him for plumbing work on the peninsula. I've been using Hamzeh for a few years now.
He's always on time, honest and get the job done! My two boys just clocked their toilet and shower (again). Just got off the phone with Hamzeh and he is coming tomorrow! Thank you Hamzeh! Because you dealt with my sons' shit so that I don't have to! Hamzeh is a fantastic plumber, as is his right hand man Ed.
But more than being just a great plumber, he's just a really smart guy who's great at problem solving in general. On top of that, he's on time, he's prompt, he works very efficiently, and he's fair in terms of price.
When he finished the job faster than expected, he took a chunk off the bill, even though I had already agreed to paying the full amount. We had an emergency, he was able to come out the next day, and even during prime traffic hours in the bay area he was on time.
He checked everything, and we agreed to put the estimate cost (175) towards the final bill, which I thought was very fair, since he did a very thorough job of inspecting the crawlspace and pipes. He took videos so I could see what was happening, and he was very keen on educating me about plumbing, which was kinda cool.
My house is set up so that the pipes in question are very hard to access, so originally we thought we were going to have to break open a wall to get to the pipes, which would require us getting a contractor and spending a ton of $$$. Hamzeh and Ed brainstormed up a way of accessing the dishwasher, and the pipe set up was done in a way that make it very difficult for them -- but saved me a ton of money because we didn't have to get a contractor to basically demolish and rebuild sheetrock / drywall.
If I have other issues, I would definitely call Hamzeh, as I feel like I can trust him to accurately diagnose the problem and come up with a future-proofed solution. My shower drainage was clogged.
Called Wizards Plumbing and they suggested me to replace the whole sewage pipes for $6800! Himzeh came and opened it for $200! Within 24 hours! He's friendly and professional, get the job done and have great work ethics! I would recommend him to everyone! Hamzeh is the great. I would hire him again and recommend him for sure! My garbage disposal was leaking.
I shared some photos of the situation with him, and he came the next morning as promised. He was extremely friendly, diagnosed & showed me the issues, promptly replaced my disposal, and gave me tips on how to maintain the new one.
He also stuck to his quote. It's comforting to know I have someone friendly & professional I can rely on in the future.
Hamzeh and Ed take great pride in a job well done. When I need a professional, I look for those who enjoy their work and like solving problems.
It's a pleasure working with small family businesses where the owner is the person who shows up for the job. Hamzeh was punctual and took care of business.
We had some backflow problems due to a blockage near the sewer main. Hamzeh used a bladed snake tool to clear it out, which is better than the plumbers that just use a snake (no blades).
The blades were able to pull out a surprise visitor in the sewer lateral: a rat. I've uploaded a picture as proof.
Hamzeh was professional, courteous, and effective. Highly recommended.
Hamzeh is very knowledgeable and efficient plumber. He is also an honest and nice person.
I would hire him in the heartbeat for any plumber-related ussues. Hamzeh saved the day!! My downstairs neighbor informed me that water was leaking down into his kitchen.
I called my HOA/property manager and they sent in Pro-Roto, who they have a contract with. The plumber from Pro-Roto was "100% sure" that our kitchen drain has rotted and he needs to cut the ceiling in my neighbor's unit and fix the problem.
He said it will cost me $3,600 and the job will take 3-4days. I asked him for more color to the situation, and he said he "didn't want get in between the HOA and me".
I found this to be odd. I called Hamzeh since his Yelp reviews were solid.
He said he would like to take a look and diagnose the problem. He came over and within a minute (I kid you not) he identified the problem, didn't have to cut my neighbor's ceiling, fixed the problem and cost me only $950.
His whole process is great. He gives you advice and explains everything with pictures.
He saved me a lot of money and time since he finished the job in an afternoon. If you have any problems, just give him a call and see what he says.
He is a professional and a true pleasure to work with. Thank you, Hamzeh! You will not be disappointed.
I just called him showed up in 15 minutes . he spend half an hour checking the place diagnostic problem and he did not want to charged for his service.
thank you. He is honest and knowledge you deserve 10 star.
I'm pretty sure I wrote a review of Hamzeh Plumbing the last time I needed him, but here's another. Toilet clogged up and I couldn't get it unclogged using a plunger, which is the full extent of my plumbing prowess.
So I called Hamzeh mid day today. He answered his phone and agreed to come by early evening.
He called when he was on the way, arrived in good time, was cheery and friendly and not grossed out by my plumbing problems. He fixed it in about 15 min., completely cleaned up that gross, awful toilet and gave me a few tips on how to keep it working well.
If you had to imagine the perfect plumber, it would look just like Hamzeh!! Don't think twice -- just call him first! I am so glad I found Hamzeh on Yelp. My sink completely stopped draining last night.
I desperately looked around for a good plumber and Yelpers came through- thank you! He worked within my wacky schedule and had my sink fixed by the afternoon. He even went the extra mile and went under the crawl space to ensure that the pipes were clear- I will be a return customer- but hopefully not too soon.
I called Hamzeh after noticing odd smells in my bathroom and was concerned it was coming from pipes. Hamzeh came and told me there was no reason to inspect them as the issue was an improperly sealed toilet.
He ended up replacing the toilet (which was my choice) and also quickly fixed my slow draining sink. He's very honest.
Highly recommended. Thank you! Super nice person, came on the same day (squeezed us into an already busy schedule).
Identified the problem right away (broken pressure regulator). Came back, fixed it the next day with a high quality job...our water pressure is amazing.
So nice to meet someone that has pride in a job well done. Met with Hamzeh and brother.
Had to crawl under my home found cracked connector that routed waste water from my washing machine and kitchen sink to sewer lateral. Gave me a discount and did job that after noon.
Had to chip into stucco for replacement clean out. Then ran over forty feet of three inch pipe which was only two inch.
Also with the two connections then cut into four inch lateral. Then the moment of truth run a load of wash befor they left.
Little over three hours. WOW!! Also fixed under my sink a small leak.
No added cost. What a great feeling to have an plumber I can use from now on.
He also told me the story per the rat photo. Laughed my arss off.
We moved into a new house two years ago. For two years we had HomeGuard HomeWarranty, and they charge a lot also sent us not really good technicians.
We have two dishwashers and we always had a problem one of them, like pipes were leaking water to cabinets, it wasn't draining very well etc. Whomever HomeWarranty sent us they couldn't find what was wrong.
I called Hamzeh, he was close to our house and he stopped by in an hour, checked the dishwasher and sink pipes. Then two day later he came to repair them.
He did really good job, he showed me what was wrong. Dishwasher was standing on the pipes and didn't get enough water and didn't drain very well because of all these pressed pipes.
And he showed me how it was leaking water so close to the socket. Thanks god we didn't burn the house.
He replaced all the pipes then replaced sink's pipes with thicker pipes, also gave them better way to drain the water. He did really good and clean job.
Thanks to him. I woke up one morning hearing this gargle / bubbling noise from the toilet.
Not really thinking anything of it, I started to do laundry, and this is where things got bad. Soapy water started backing up into the tub and my toilet wasn't flushing.
With only 1 bathroom in the house, I needed a plumber sooner, than later. Hamzeh to the rescue! Hamzeh gave me an hour window and he showed up on time.
Turns out when you get that bubbling noise from the toilet your sewage line might be broken. Without a clean out, Hamzeh snaked the sewage line through the toilet and pulled roots and even worms! He pointed out that when he pulls worms, it's a sure sign that your line has been broken for awhile.
When he was done, he made sure he cleaned up the mess and sanitized my bathroom, bonus points. While working with Hamzeh I felt that he was genuine and really knowledgeable.
I would highly recommend him, and would work with him again if needed (hopefully not anytime soon). Had the pleasure of connecting w Hamzeh regarding a clogged laundry pipe that turned out to be more than a normal clog.
Hamzeh went into the crawl space to do an inspection and came up with pictures of a 40+ft pipe that was previously installed incorrectly. Hamzeh explained the necessary work which included replacing and resloping the pipe.
While the repair came with a hefty price tag I felt comfortable with Hamzeh's detailed description of the repair. A big plus was the 1 yr guaranty he offered on the work! Hamzeh and his brother spent 4-5 hours on the job and showed me pictures of the finished job.
Overall, I was very satisfied with the work done and would recommend Hamzeh as an knowledgeable and experienced plumber. Glad I found him.
Hamzeh was wonderful. He was responsive, extremely competent, fairly priced, and a delightful man.
We couldn't ask for more Hamzeh is very responsive and does a good job in fixing problems completely and quickly. He can sometimes be on the pricey-side though.
I was very happy at the time of the work he did, but since then, he hasn't been reachable at all. I got a number of other plumbers to come out and while there, I had them look at the work he did.
He did great work but it turns out that we were overcharged. ($750 to cap a gas line that involved less then an hour of work).
This guy is fast, funny, professional. Beginning to end.
Yes, I will use him again. Yes, this guy is one of the 5 STARS.
Hamzeh has been a lifesaver. Not once, but many, many, many times.
He fixed a main sewer line problem, upgraded three toilets perfectly, fixed a problem with my shower, identified and stopped several leaks, replaced my dead garbage disposal and related pipes, and helped with countless other problems. Hamzeh is a perfectionist.
He is honest, prompt, and extremely fair. Have a plumbing issue? You MUST call Hamzeh! Hamzeh continues to impress...Came out with only 12 hours notice to replace a leaking fill value.
When he left, the unit working flawlessly, he had rerouted some of the piping for improved access and the room was spotless. Oh, and his prices are as reasonable as you'll ever find.
Supporting a local businessman who takes pride in his work (and enjoys it, too) is easy when the result is of this caliber. I would never consider using anyone else.
I've not been able to use my dishwasher for a good month or so due to an air gap/hose issue. This was quickly diagnosed, on the phone, mind you and rectified in a span of 30 minutes by Hamzeh upon his arrival.
The man is honest and provides a fair and reasonable price for the job. His work definitely warrants a 5 star rating and others obviously agree with me! Going forward, I will lean on him for my plumbing needs.
Thanks once again Hamzeh! Just an update. I like Hamzeh but the last visit left a sour taste in my mouth.
He installed the faucet for me and as I asked him for the fee, he threw numbers out and was really astonished to the figures he provided. I ended up paying $300 to my dismay.
I called another plumber and he noted $100 for the install so lesson learned. 6 stars.
Honest, great at his job, does he what he says he is going to do, fun, responsive. What more, I had a gnarly job (pipes breaking under the house) and I was freaking out.
He took it down. If you need a plumber, hire Hamzeh.
Begin chant: Hamzeh - Hamzeh - Hamzeh Thank you Hamzeh! Our sink was linking, I though I need to change a new cartilage. Last time I got ripped off from Cacciatore plumbing.
For a small job, less than 10 ,mis and charged me $300. So this time I searched nextdoor and yelp again and again.
I contacted several plumbing company before I decide to have hamzeh come over. He came over less than 20 mins and no charge at all.
It was just a loose part. I am so thanksful his honest.
He earned our business in the future. We will call him next time for sure.
Like the other reviewers say: Hamzeh is a lifesaver who you'll really appreciate if you've been wrestling with so-so pipes or so-so plumbers. He quickly replaced a ton of 70-year-old galvanized steel pipe and corrected a bunch of mistakes wrought by earlier repairs.
Three things stand out: (1) Hamzeh knows his stuff. He not only knew how to rebuild an ancient shower valve in my house, but he knew where to get the 20-or-so arcane gaskets we needed.
(2) He does not cheap out on the parts. Yes, you're the one paying for the parts, but here's the point: You're paying a plumber for the hours needed to install something.
If he installs a cheap valve that will need replacement soon, then you saved $1 on the part and you'll pay for it in, say, $300 worth of labor 2 years from now. So listen to Hamzeh: Use decent quality parts.
(3) He lays out all the options for you. This goes with #1, above.
He's got the experience to know what the various options are in a given situation, and he'll spell them out for you. Friendly, cheerful, honest and fairly priced.
Got a plumbing problem, call Hamzeh! He personally picked up the phone, called back as he promised and was at my house on time. He's earned all of the five star reviews.
Had Pro Roto come out and claim we needed new pipes at a cost of $3600 after using a rooter for about a half hour. Hamzeh came out and realized instantly the issue was Pro Roto was rooting up though the roof air tap.
In a few minutes he had the clog gone and even fixed the leaking shower head while he was at it. Top marks.
Hamzeh is a great man. I am very pleased to have worked with him.
He is a hard working and honest person. He will never take you for a ride unless you are in his cab and you tell him where to go (he is also a cab driver;).
He has an incredible humor and is very funny and makes you feel comfortable being around your place. Hamzeh is very punctual and works for a reasonable price.
He will get the job done in no time and will stand by his work. The final line, you will not regret working with Hamzeh.
His plumbing knowledge is unquestionable and you will make him your go to plumber once you decide to hire him for your plumbing needs. I admire hard working honest people and that's why Hamzeh is the person I refer to all my friends and colleagues when they have plumbing problems.
I called Hamzeh today for a leaky sink. He had come to our house last year for a big job to repipe some drains and we were very happy about his work, his knowledge, his great work ethic, his friendliness and his professionalism.
This time being a "small" job, I was not sure if he would be able to take care of the leaky sink. Well he did! I texted him with photos of the problem, he replied in the next 20 min, and he was at my home within the next hour.
Replacing the trap under sink took literally 15 min. And the cost was very reasonable!!! Hamzeh is the best!! Fast and quality work.
Highly recommend him!!! I found Hamzeh on Yelp and could not be happier. I have an under concrete leak or so I thought.
As you can imagine any plumbing issue for a homeowner is a nightmare and a possible under foundation one is even worse. He came out right away as well as answering his own phone as other have stated.
He did a lot of investigation to determine where/what my issues were. At this point he recommended that I contact American Leak Detection (I left another positive review about them) to determine where my leak was occurring.
I highly recommend Hamzeh due to his expertise, demeanor and prompt response. We have a slab foundation home and needed to access a blown pipe beneath the bathtub.
We had quite a few plumbers come out. Some had lower prices than Hamzeh, but they had little in the way of warranties.
Some had higher prices, but seemed uncertain they could do the job without taking apart our entire bathroom. Hamzeh is honest, and does what he says he will do.
He literally chiseled the concrete which took him more time but cost us less money. He left the place clean, and my parents have sworn to call him when they need plumbers again, just as we will.
Great work, ethical guy. Highly recommend! Our water heater died and our original plumber wasn't able to come out immediately, so we called Hamzeh.
He showed up on time, got started right away and worked into the night. Gave us an estimate and stuck to his price.
Very courteous, detailed and explained all his work. Hamzeh replaced our 75 gallon unit with 2 x 50 gallon units and tied in a bypass feature in case one unit goes out.
The install looked very clean. Would definitely use him again! This is long overdue but I highly recommend Hamzeh! We own a 4 unit building and always have random issues popping up with our tenants' toilets, sinks, water heaters, showers...
Hamzeh has been working with us for a couple years now and is always extremely responsive, accommodating, thorough and fair. His character and skill make him a 5-star plumber for sure! Hamzeh and Ed are excellent plumbers.
They are punctual, knowledgeable, come well prepared and very pleasant to work with. I called them for a clogged kitchen and washing machine drain.
They came the next day on time and got the problem fixed in less than 3 hours. The clogged pipe was in a very tight spot in the crawl space.
Ed dig his way in with no complain and did a fantastic job. Hamzeh also spotted a toilet leak and a shower leak that I was not aware of.
I am glad that these problems were identified, otherwise it could potentially ruin our house foundation. Hamzeh fixed my toilet leak right away and gave me advise on the shower leak.
Plumbing problems are problems we all fear for one reason: we are never sure on exactly who we can rely. Rest easy, Hamzeh Plumbing is the best plumbing expert you will ever need.
Hamzeh helped us a long while back while he was with another company so we were especially happy we tracked him down and that he is now on his own. In a word, Hamzeh's plumbing services are superb.
First, when he says he will be there at a certain time -- he is! That fact, alone, should deem him trustworthy. Second, he is supremely knowledgeable about whatever plumbing issues you may have.
Third, he works on holidays. Today, we had a dishwasher plumbing problem and Hamzeh said he could come out to take a look.
He said he would arrive at 10:00 a.m. and he was ringing our doorbell at 9:58 a.m.
Knowing how sacred our hardwood floors and carpets are, Hamzeh came prepared with the worker "booties" and walked in to tackle the problem. Within a few minutes, he figured out what was wrong.
Resolving it, I thought, may require more time since we had to change out some rubber piping. Lo and behold, he does carry plumbing parts in his truck.
That time savings was perfect and convenient. His service did not stop there, however.
Once he switched out the parts, his re-assembly of the kitchen faucets was just as meticulous. Not happy with the way it looked, he took a few more minutes to make it look perfect, then added some extra sealing that is going to benefit us later.
Hamzeh also is extremely personable. His style is quick, but not rushed.
His prices were competitive, but extremely reasonable. What's more, he does not try to upsell you.
For example, we had an ancillary problem with an Insta-hot kitchen faucet. Hamzeh advised me of what to do and what we needed, but was fine with me calling him back when we were ready.
That advice, and patience, in a professional is refreshing considering we have had service persons come out and, on occasion, try to talk us into a complete remodel when all we needed was a touch of paint. Overall, fellow Yelpers and friends, if you have any plumbing issues at all, you do not have to look any further; Hamzeh Plumbing is the way to go.
Hamzeh Plumbing is licensed and offers a limited warranty on his work. Like most people, we never think about plumbers until we are in a crisis! On Sunday, July 6 our waterline from the floor to the fridge's ice maker started leaking.
Turns out the old tube had been broken by the previous owners and patched together with tape! As water was quickly leaking on to the kitchen floor we called Hamzeh! Hamzeh was at our house in San Mateo in less than 15 minutes. He is very polite and courteous with a great sense of humor.
We found his prices fair and reasonable considering it was Sunday too! Hamzeh is great! We discovered a leak in one of the pipes for our water heater the night before. We called someone else first but never received a response.
Hamzeh responded quickly the next morning and was over in 20 minutes. He quickly diagnosed the problem and knew exactly how to handle our problem.
There were two outcomes for us in the fix: either he'll try to replace the pipe and hope it works or he'll have to replace the whole thing. He was nice enough to try the pipe replacement before doing the whole thing and said that he'd only charge us for whichever ends up fixing the problem.
Fortunately for us, he was able to fix the problem simply by replacing the pipe. Before he left, he gave us tips on what to do during the next water heater break down.
Great attitude, great to work with and he has some great jokes! Would definitely recommend! We called several plumbers when our toilet was clogged at 730pm. No one answered except for Hamzeh.
He arrived that evening. Turns out our pipe was cracked and the toilet was cracked.
He walked us through everything and then provided a very reasonable quote. We agreed to have him start the job immediately.
He took extra care to protect our hardwood floor and carpet as it was our hallway bathroom. He was super considerate to the fact that we have a newborn and needed the work done ASAP.
Very meticulous and professional. The job took two days only because we didn't call him until late evening.
He tested everything before leaving. He kept his equipment, tools and work area very tidy.
You would have never known he was there when the job was done. He has definitely earned a customer for life.
We plan on using him again when we're ready to have our gas pipe moved. Highly recommend! On a Friday afternoon, I called Hamzeh because my kitchen sink was leaking.
I told him I thought it was the garbage disposal. He asked me to take a photo of the problem and send it to him.
I videoed the leak and sent it. Sure enough, it was the garbage disposal.
He said he could come late Saturday afternoon. I explained that I was having a dinner party that evening and really needed to be able to use the sink.
He understood and rearranged his schedule to come to my house at noon on Saturday. He brought everything he needed and was done in 30 minutes.
He saved the day! He is very knowledgeable and efficient. He is kind and considerate.
His rates are comparable to others and he service is superior. We will call him again if needed.
Thank you, Hamzeh! Hamzeh is everything you would want in a plumber... Honest, thorough and hard-working.
Whatever your issue, he will take care of it and make sure your house is in 100% order. He is also just a great guy.
I recommend him to anyone in need of plumbing work in San Mateo! I called Hamzeh after a previous plumber failed to fix a slow bathtub drain. He arrived the same day, on time, and quickly identified the previous plumber's error.
After removing the clog, he installed a drain cover he had with him without charge. He was in and out in about 15 minutes and I could not have been happier with a plumber.
Hamzeh absolutely deserves the ratings he has here. I called Hamzeh Plumbing for an issue with a toilet and bathtub that were slow to drain.
Hamzeh took the time to explain the possible problem,how he could repair the problem, and He also gave me the prices over the phone. I called him a few times for clarification and he took the time to explain everything again.
Unfortunately, he was busy and could not help me so I had to hire someone else. I give him honorable mention for taking the time to explain my situation to me.
Dealing with any house issue is stressful enough, but then to have to find someone you can trust to have help you is another ball of wax. Enter Hamzeh Plumbing.
I called Hamzeh with a serious leak under a kitchen sink. He was willing to come same day but luckily, my husband was able to fix it.
However, after the leak continued, Hamzeh came to our house right away and did all the things you would want from someone coming to your home. -He called 10 minutes before arriving -He was very respectful coming into our home, making sure to put on shoe socks and keeping the work area clean -He made a quick and accurate assessment of the problem and charged us only the cost to fix it...other plumbers charge just to come and asses! -He also saw another issue under our sink and suggested we have an electrician come help us -Overall, he was professional, very capable, fair and honest, and charged a reasonable price.
We found our go to plumber for years to come! Hamzeh was fantastic -- came out and fixed about 4 different plumbing issues in a couple of hours, faster than we expected. He was fantastic at explaining what was going on, how to fix it, verifying things afterwards for us, etc.
Will definitely call on him again next time! Hamzeh came to the rescue today! Our toilet backed up into our shower unexpectedly. He was the third plumber we called and the only one who could come out in an hour or less.
He snaked our line and cleaned out the mess. He was super friendly ND informative.
He even came back hours later to reinstall our toilet for no charge because the sewer company failed to show up! Two thumbs up!! We have a house that was built in the 1950s and original pipes, so we have had our fair share of dealing with plumbers throughout the years. I've got to say he is simply the best plumber we have worked with.
Professionally, detail oriented, and efficient. Called Hamzeh after finding this page.
Was not disappointed. I had called around to several other plumbing places in the area, sent them emails, left multiple voicemails, etc.; never heard back from any of them, not even from the very-highly reviewed places in the mid-peninsula with tons of positive ratings.
Hamzeh picked up on my first try (as many others have said) and was very communicative via text and calls throughout the multi-day job. Hamzeh is a true expert - exceedingly thorough and knowledgeable (his investigatory skill led to solving the root problem that all other previously contacted plumbers had failed to identify), a consummate professional, and a great sense of humor.
Highly highly recommend. Give him a call if you've got a problem with grime in your pipes! Hamzeh Plumbing came to the rescue in one home when I lived in South SF since another plumber could not identify and fix the problem.
Ultimately Hamzeh found out what to do and resolved the problem with great professionalism. Afterward he made certain to clean everything up which was important since there was a lot of black goo involved! In another instance when living in San Bruno he recently came into the fold since the complex has unreliable plumbing on top of various issues for some of the condos (including mine).
He replaced the toilet and also worked out clogging that was outside of the unit but backing up the pipes for my unit. He confidently and happily cleaned up behind the job and checked the kitchen as an extra service.
I have since recommended him to 3 friends. His number is: (415) 690-6540 Hamzeh was wonderful in a weekend emergency! He took great care with everything he worked on.
He was timely, informative, And fair. He is now our new plumber Hamzeh!!! I cannot thank this guy enough.
He came in to our house to fix some of our previous contractors' mistakes and we could not be any more pleased with his work! He really went the extra mile and made sure that everything was perfect. We have a perfectly working sink again and I am no longer dreading doing the dishes! It's not so often that we come across people who actually love what they do, and care about the quality of their work.
Thank you Hamzeh! Hamzeh is very honest, and extremely smart and knowledgeable about plumbing. He fixed my clogged toilet and replaced my bidet hose.
He has excellent problem solving skills, and explained the whole process in detail. Hamzeh and his brother Ed are very organized, and they even cleaned the bathrooms after job was done.
He has excellent customer service. The bidet parts I bought from Home Depot was missing a part.
Hamzeh agreed to come by another day to fix the bidet with no extra charge, and he did. I highly recommend them.
This was by far the most impressed I have ever been by a plumber/contractor/service-professional/etc in my life. Hamzeh is first and foremost a professional that loves his job, something that becomes immediately apparent the first time you meet him.
One of the nicest people you will ever meet, almost everyone in the house preferred to sit and chat with him as he completed his work. What started out as an apparent clogged sink that was labeled "unfixable" by our previous plumber, was found to be a much more serious problem by Hamzeh.
Where as our previous plumber (who quite possibly had the IQ of a doorknob) was only interested in temporary fixes that guaranteed him return business, Hamzeh was straight forward and honest from the start. Hamzeh discovered that it was not only a clogged drain but in fact a broken pipe underground in a very hard to access location.
Instead of this quickly turning into a stressful, wallet-draining nightmare like previous experiences with plumbers have been; Hamzeh quickly put any worry to bed by coming up with a more logical (cost-effective) solution to our problem. He came back the next day (Superbowl Sunday!) and finished ALL the required work (and more) within 10 hours.
Wow! Needless to say he saved us thousands of dollars as well as A LOT of inconvenience and stress. The experience (for what it is) was nothing less than refreshing.
We simply wouldn't use anyone else. Thanks yelpers for helping us find such a great guy! He came right on time and was really good at explaining why the plumbing was clogged up a week after the completion of a bathroom remodel.
We were stumped and getting frustrated with the situation, but he diagnosed the problem spot on and fixed it within 2 hours. Highly recommend!! The day after Thanksgiving when my toilet didn't flush, and my shower faucet came off while I have out of town guests and one bathroom.
Needless to say that when Hamzeh came over within an hour and fixed everything with aplomb and with cheerfulness and professional expertise, I couldn't be more grateful. I can tell he will be changing my hot water heater and the old pipes.
. If I could give him 100 stars I would.
Never have I had this kind of service for any issue. He's a keeper, I wish he were also an else electrician, a carpenter, and a painter.
Hamzeh was quick to assess my plumbing issue - a back-up with the bathroom clean-out - merely by asking a couple questions. He arrived on time and was not put off by the difficult access to the clean-out.
He and his brother got to work immediately. On a hillside in a somewhat difficult area to access, they hauled in their equipment and took care of the problem expeditiously.
I had a feeling the plumber I called a year ago, did not perform adequate service. Hamzeh showed me the poor quality fitting that was used and at the root of the problem.
He explained what the problem was, how it needed to be fixed and was careful to demonstrate the health of the pipe with the video sent up the line before they closed it up again. Hamzeh has provided excellent plumbing services for us in the past and we called him again with a complicated kitchen leak issue.
He responded promptly and quickly resolved the issue. While he was on site he also addressed some other plumbing issues.
All of this was done for a very reasonable price. He is very professional and courteous in his dealings with customers, and we are very comfortable with him.
We will continue to refer Hamzeh to our best friends. Hamzeh and his brother, Ed, seated a new toilet for us.
They're fast, efficient and accommodating. I wasn't in any particular rush, but when I told Hamzeh I had the toilet already, he came on over - you can't beat same-day service.
He also helped me with some broken sink plugs and in diagnosing a problem with another faucet. Highly recommend them! Hamzeh has fixed the toilet and floor drain problem for me recently.
He is fast and accurate and honest. The toilet was a old fashion one with water pipe coming from a place higher than the top of tank.
So it was hard to find a replacement. Hamzeh hand made a new pipe to make things fit perfectly.
The clogged floor drain at backyard was diagnosed by Roto Rooter first. Their technician (Alex) didn't open anything to check before he quoted for $325 plus $299.
According to him, a heavy machine (not sure what that was called) must be used and the $299 is to pay a second person to just carry the machine to the backyard. I told Alex that it might not need such a overkill and I suggested him to use smaller tool to find out what's the real problem was before going further.
But Alex said this was the way. Left with no option, I decided to contact another plumber according to existing Yelp reviews.
I called Hamzeh. Hamzeh lives up to the reviews.
He answered the phone right away and came right away, quoted $250 total. He only used one portable tool to get it unclogged in just 5 minutes.
He also voluntarily scrubed the whole floor next to swimming pool without charging anything. I want to say, Hamzeh makes things look so easy.
His quote is accurate. His turn around is less than 24 hours.
He is honest, easy to work with and very skillful. I highly recommend him.
Hamzeh & Ed are the nicest plumber you will ever meet. They troubleshoot the problem real quick and takes the time to explain what the cause and correction will be.
They will save you time and momey in the end. Thanks Hamzeh What a wonderful experience.
Hamzeh was available and arrived shortly. He saw that the gas fitting wasn't right (very old type) and he changed the flex line as well.
A very good guy to talk with, and very willing to tell me what he was doing and why. I learned a lot.
Will definitely be calling him again. This guy Hamzeh is fantastic! I've reached out to Hamzeh on 3 separate occasions.
The first was for a gas line repair at my business. The second for copper line work for the air system at my business and most recently for a couple of plumbing concerns at my home.
I definitely like that when I call Hamzeh Plumbing I always get Hamzeh! Never a receptionist or some random technician. The first time I used Hamzeh I didn't have the ability to gather bids as it was a pretty urgent situation.
I did some research after the fact however and found Hamzeh's pricing given the timing and urgency of the matter were quite reasonable. With Hamzeh I have never had a recurring issue.
I've had him back multiple times now but never for the same thing. As a fellow small business owner I appreciate Hamzeh's candid honesty and customer centric approach to conducting business.
I simply can't say enough good stuff about Hamzeh! I trust him and consider him a friend. Called him- we set a time and date for him to come to the house for a quote.
He never showed up or called me to explain why. Going to use another plumber now.
Hamzeh is a great plumber and person. He arrived on time, rapidly assessed the problem with our leaking hose bib.
He explained the options for resolution, including merits and costs. Then he efficiently made the repairs.
He is very pleasant too! Highly recommended!! I'm really glad that I called Hamzeh. He and his brother are experts at plumbing, nice guys and easy to work with.
I've had problems with the plumbing in my home for years and had many plumbers come out to clear the drains and try to once and for all solve the problem. Hamzeh recommended replacing the bathroom underground plumbing and one of the toilets, and explained in detail why it was needed and the changes he would make to resolve the constant problems.
He also alerted me to a shower drain that was ready to burst. He did major work replacing pipes under the home, sinks and shower pipes, added a clean out drain to my backyard, replaced the toilet, and the pipes behind the shower wall about a year ago.
I'm very happy that I've had no more problems with bathroom backups. I recently called him back to replace the plumbing under my kitchen sink when it started leaking badly.
There was a problem related to the disposal and the pipes were very old and crumbling. Same great service and another problem fixed.
Hamzeh is awesome! I've had him over twice to address plumbing emergencies in my condo and was super impressed with how quickly he responded. Also he has a real passion for his work, seems to enjoy what he does, and has high standards, all of which I appreciate.
I'd recommend him to anyone! When I discovered a leak under my kitchen sink, I went to Yelp to find a plumber and turned to Hamzeh because he had a five star rating. He was available to come the same day, but I had a conflict so we scheduled it for the next day, and he arrived right on time.
He quickly diagnosed the leak and had it fixed in less than two minutes because it was due to a misthreading on the faucet. Quite by chance he happened to notice that our toaster oven was also having a problem, which he quickly diagnosed as well.
Needless to say, although the time he spent with us was rather short, I was surprised that he would not accept any payment. My husband gave him twenty bucks and told him to buy coffee at Starbucks.
Bottom line: I now have a plumber! His name is Hamzeh! If or when I have a plumbing problem, he's my guy. I give him the same five star rating as have others.
Thanks, Hamzeh! Hamzeh is fantastic. I called him about putting in a hot water dispenser and new garbage disposal on short notice as a surprise for my wife and not only was he able to come on Sunday (was his day off) but also walked me through all the options and had me check what was going to be needed before he arrived to save time and money.
Turned out I had bought a disposal too large for the space under my sink, but not to worry, he had a slimmer one already in his truck! It works perfectly and I took the other one back. He isn't a cheap fix, but really has a passion for his work and is a joy to be around, so I won't hesitate in calling Hamzeh for my next project! Hamzeh Plumbing is the best plumber I have ever had the pleasure of working with.
Hamzeh is reliable, trustworthy, reasonable & oh so knowledgeable. He has replaced my toilets, installed new faucets and will even come out on a Sunday! Call Hamzeh @ 415-690-6540 if you are ever in need of a plumber.
I would never use anyone else ever again! Susan France South San Francisco, CA 94080 THANK YOU. THANK YOU.
THANK YOU! Hamzeh came out right away and got my sink working again. He was quick, clean and efficient and had all of the tools and parts he needed in the car.
All in all, from call to completion took about 45 minutes. WOW! He even noticed that the toilet seat was loose and tightened that as well as tightened the shower head.
I have a fridge magnet of his card and will definitely call him first next time. Other companies were not able to come out until the following afternoon or the following week.
Since I work out of my home and have only one bathroom sink, I really needed it fixed right away. Hamzeh has helped us over the past 6 years.
Whether it's a major or minor issue, he approaches it with a smile and an eagerness to get it right. Once he told me that he wakes up each day happy to go to work since he looks at each job as a puzzle that he wants to solve.
He is honest and hard working. His brother Ed, who works with him, is also great.
When you call him, he comes to help as soon as he can, which is usually that same day or the next. A few weeks ago, I called him late afternoon, he asked me to face time on the phone with him to show him the problem area of our sink.
He & Ed came the next day to assess the problems, left to buy all the parts needed and returned within a few hours to work for nearly 4 hours, well past the end of their work day. I told him he could come another day if he wanted.
He said, "I want to stay until everything is done and right." The 3 areas of my house that they worked in were left tidy. They did another terrific job and I highly recommend Hamzeh and Ed for your plumbing issues.
They are so knowledgeable and friendly.'''.
