I used Alvarez for both AC & Plumbing! I purchased an older home in South Tampa that needed some serious maintenance. They were honest and upfront, didn’t try to upsell or overcharge me, and handled everything with professionalism, courtesy, and communication. I had an entire AC system replacement with a new…

Alexander (Alex) was my plumber. He was very kind, considerate, and professional. He explained clearly what my options were. He kept me updated and showed me video of the water flowing when he was finished. This being a family owned business, they can take pride in knowing they are being well represented. Thank you, Alex!!

We had these guys out after another plumber could not permanently clear out the sewer line behind our restaurant. We had repeated back ups that caused us to close early on a busy Friday night. The plumbers before Alvarez kept in coming out to jet the line but never wondered why it was backing up. Never looked…

My business had Alvarez out for urinals clogged and overflowing. They sent Jacob and Jason out to help us. They took care of the issue and were honest, clean, quick and efficient. I have used alvarez before this and will continue using them in the future.

Ted was excellent. I have a new plumber! He said what he'd do and it was done quickly and neatly. Really nice guy! The price was better than I expected considering what had to be done. Ted was clear about everything. Sam, who took my call was gracious as well.

Joe M was the tech who helped us out of a jamb. It was obvious that he had a lot of experience. He didn't waste any time and unclogged the main drain quickly. This was my first experience with Alvarez, but it won't be my last.
