Best plumbing company I’ve used so far!! They were able to schedule me same day. Tobi did a great job installing our bathroom shut-off valves. He was very knowledgeable and polite. Will definitely hire them for future jobs.

We have been using Alvarez for our plumbing repair needs for about a year now. Each time we need them, they come right away! They work quickly but do a thorough job. The technicians are always super nice and informative; especially our technician Ted, who has worked at our business more then once and is always great to work with!

Perry installed my outdoor kitchen sink and added a water spigot as well. He was very professional, and kept me updated throughout the process. He was on time, very attentive, and left the place just as clean as he found it. Great to learn he is an Air Force veteran… wish Perry nothing but the best…. Alvarez plumbing is on speed dial for me… great job!!!
