RB ( American Plumbing) is totally a professional. He is very polite and respectful. He arrived on time and detected the issue on hand and fixed the leak all in 10 mins. Really good hand and very dependable. Would recommend him anytime for all the plumbing issues.

My main water line from the street had a leak along with the water heater itself. Both had to be replaced. I got three estimates and RB was the cheapest by 30%. He’s not as corporate as the others, which may explain some of the price difference. He did a great job and his crew were very professional
