"My water heater was leaking profusely all over my basement floor and needed to be replaced immediately. Usually getting someone to come over in an emergency is not easy, but when I phoned Arreaga Santos Plumbing Santos said he would come over right away, which he did. My heater is in a difficult place and hard to get to, but Santos and his assistant removed it with ease. Not only was this done fast, the minute details that he attended to were performed with great care and very high quality. Also, he's a very nice guy. Based on the entire situation there is no other plumber I would use in the future. Just call him, you will be as happy as I am."

"David and Eli at First Class were knowledgeable and personable. David responded in five minutes on a Sunday and came out the next morning. They would have charged $1300 less than the other bid for a 50 gallon heater but we chose a Navien point of source to save money on PGE gas bills. That cost $3900 July 2025-beware tariff price increases - which was half and less than competitors."

"Our experience with Bill was absolutely great. He installed an automatic gas shutoff valve for safety and insurance compliance. He was straightforward, knowledgable and very pleasant to work with. Came out to the do the job exactly when he said he would, adapted to the specific needs of the project, and finished it on time and without any issues. And his prices are extremely reasonable. He's already gathering some information for our next project. Hire this guy."

"Awesome service! I would highly recommend this company. It was a Sunday and our water heater for a 6-unit apartment went out. I absolutely had to get this job done because I couldn't miss work the next day. They were in constant contact with me throughout the day trying to get the parts and the job done. That really impressed me. (I had calls out with a number of other companies and no one called back to give me an update.) They came Sunday evening to prep the job to finish the next day. I was highly impressed with their friendly and professional service."
