Their service was so kind, transparent, and very informational from start to end. Their communication via phone and email was diligent and helped fix our drain issues. I’d use them again for sure. Thanks so much!

Fantastic job! We have used the team at Advanced Plumbing many times over the years and have always been happy with their work. They arrive quickly, and always do a thorough job. They’re straightforward and easy to work with.
Did a great job
Can’t say enough good things about Advanced Plumbing. They gave us a straightforward quote over the phone for the service I described, came to our apartment promptly, and got the job done for half the price of a quote given to us by another plumber in the city. Dylan was a super nice guy, very professional, and great at his job. Thanks!
Dean did an awesome job! He was prompt, knowledgeable, friendly, and fast. He unclogged a complicated drain and was done in under an hour. Would recommend!
YAY and thank you, Alex. It was nice to meet you and I am very happy. Flowing water is a wonderful thing!
Dylan did a great job clearing a giant root ball in our sewage drain. He was very knowledgeable and helpful! We will definitely use Advanced plumbing again.
Once again Dean to the rescue! I foolishly poured cooked rice down the disposal and oops...it has hard work and over 35' of snaking to push that crude out. But Dean got it done.
Outstanding service! A major drain lightwell drain was clogged. Advanced Plumbing & Drain set up an appointment for later the same day, came right on time worked quickly - with consideration for my place - and all is now clear. Totally professional, reliable and very fairly priced.
Dillon arrived ahead of schedule, diagnosed the reason for my ill behaving garbage disposal and made necessary repairs. Easy. Professional. And now highly recommended!
Alex always does a fantastic job with all our plumbing needs. He explains what the issue is and then proceeds to fix it.
We’ve had our bathtub drain snaked many times, but Aaron recognized that the issue had to do with the bathtub in the neighboring unit, and went to the source of the problem. I appreciate that he went the extra mile
Last week, one of the units in our building had a sewer blockage that required a video camera inspection. We called Advanced Plumbing for help, and the company sent Alex to handle the job. Alex was incredibly friendly and professional. What impressed us most was his patience and thoroughness — he took the time to…
Dean was very persistent, he made sure to handle the clog and took the time to make sure that everything was clear before heading out. The drain put up a good fight, it required the big snake which meant several runs to the truck, and lots of filling and emptying the p-trap , but Dean persevered. Thanks!
Alex came out within an hour and solved our problems with 2 drains. He was prompt and great to work with. We really appreciate it.
I highly recommend Advanced Plumbing. They’re very professional, the technicians are always on time, helpful, knowledgeable, and honest. I’ve used them before and had an equally good experience.
I have advanced plumbing, clean the drains under my house each fall before the winter rains to avoid flooding in the lower apartment. I am 100% satisfied with ADVANCED PLUMBING because of their easy appointment making, punctuality for appointments, communication and price. I have used many other companies in the 41…
Dylan was friendly and fixed our issue. He also gave helpful recommendations for preventative maintenance.
Kyle was early to an emergency appointment and was most helpful. He did a great job.
Prompt and friendly service. Went out of his way to resolve my issue, and suggested a product for future use I didn’t know about. 100% happy.
Dylan showed up quickly and took care of the issue right away. Really friendly and helpful.
Dean was very patient and persistent, and eventually cleared a backup due caused by our 100+ year-old plumbing. This is probably the fourth or fifth time over the years that we've used this company for various plumbing issues, and we've always been satisfied with their work and price.
Alex did a fine job of unclogging our tub. He showed up on time, explained what he was doing, and fixed the problem quickly.
On time and polite
Michael did a fantastic job working on pipes in an older home. He was polite and timely. I recommend him and look forward to working with him again on future projects.
Had to have a garbage disposal installed and to leverage the visit, also a water valve replacement. Installer was professional, helpful (did some troubleshooting to try to avoid other costs) and provided fair estimates. My mom has used these folks before and always fair, honest, clean up after work and I feel we are…
NEW REVIEW: the first rain of the season caused our main plumbing line to slowly drain and back up in our garage. Ron Kapah was not only professional, but committed to clearing the 122ft of line through copper and terracotta pipes. On day one a snake was tried and the line was not completely cleared. The next…
Gabriel always texts his estimated arrival time, arrives on time, assesses the situation, and cleared the clogged kitchen sink in a 1939 building with old pipes. Also at his recommendation, he converted an old shower over the tub 3-handle fixture with new behind the wall plumbing and used a "smitty" plate that…
Was able to get an appointment for the next day to snake out three drains. Ron the technician was on time, friendly, cleared out all three drains, and cleaned up well afterwards.
Jeremy from Advanced Plumbing was a pleasure to work with - he was very knowledgeable and cared. He spent as much time as needed to make sure the project was done right.
Gabriel worked quickly and efficiently. He took time to answer all my questions regarding all my plumbing questions. This company is very responsive and i was able to get an appointment quickly. I would not hesitate to call them again.

I had a number of projects that were piling up and needed to get done. My technician, Ron, breezed through them with speed and ease, he had a complete knowledge of each project, knew exactly what to do, finished quickly and at a reasonable price. Ron was a real professional, as well as friendly and respectful. I…
Alex and Advanced Plumbing responded quickly when we needed help on the weekend. The issue was explained and the process to take care of it. It was fixed and they guaranteed the service.
Quick diagnostic and excellent tech skills. Great value for the money. Nice technician. Very clean and complete. No leaks and great waste flow after clean out.
Nick checks all the above boxes..With any plumbing issues ur in great hands
Gabriel, Jill and Advanced Plumbing are wonderful. Quality work, fair price and leave the area clear and clean with the problem solved. Used them multiple times, have recommended them and will continue to do so. Many thanks.
The plumber phoned to say he would be here a little late which was fine with us. Work began promptly and we were kept informed of progress. All additional work on pipes and gaskets done. We were very pleased with the work.
I recently hired Ron as a handyman and was thoroughly impressed with his work. He was responsive, professional, and skilled. He listened to my needs and provided thoughtful recommendations. He was on time and kept me updated on his progress. His work was efficient and of exceptional quality. He was respectful of my…
Excellent company and skilled technician (thanks Jeremy)! Scheduling was fast. I received text updates. Technician was knowledgeable and efficient in diagnosing and fixing issue. We were so relieved that it wasn’t going to be the expensive fix that other companies had quoted. I have found my new go to plumber!
Gabriel was very friendly, responsive, on time, and professional. He was able to fix the issue and gave great tips how to deal with clogged drains in the future.
They’re on time, professional, friendly, and effective.
Alex was fantastic! Very polite and professional and got my drain unplugged.
I highly recommend this company. Gabriel was so professional and was very respectful. He efficiently addressed three different problem areas. He was very polite and also a great conversationalist.
My toilet was overflowing with storm/ sewer water, almost faster than I could bail it and Nick was able to get Gabriel to my house within 45 mins of my call for help. He creatively and effectively fixed my problem within an hour and was so knowledgeable and helpful, could not recommend them enough!!!!
Top notch service at a fair price! Thank you!!
Lucky I stumbled upon Nick and got his card! We're in the middle of a lot of different work (toilet, sink, shower and sewer) and I have been really impressed with his professionalism, diligence and efforts to troubleshoot the list of repairs in a sensible manner. My impression is he works really hard to find the…
