Greg is the best plumber in Sacramento, and I exclusively work with him for all plumbing needs. Responsive, professional, fair, fast. What else does one want?
Fast response for an emergency Sunday call. Cory answered all my questions patiently and worked hard to successfully clear the kitchen sink clog. Would definitely give them my business again.
Jed Beltran serviced our unit and was fantastic. He thoroughly explained what was going on and not only did he fix our issue, but he improved our situation. Very thankful that we had a great technician come and service our unit.
Bud’s Plumbing and Axel did a great job for us. Will definitely use them in the future and would highly recommend.
He was great! We trusted him and came out right away with his camera and helped us to resolve an old cast iron pipe removal and hydro jet our lines throughout our home. They were fantastic and set up an annual service for air conditioning and heater service , as well as plumbing. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Kitchen sink badly clogged, now it’s flowing like a water fall.
I cannot say enough good things about Bud’s Plumbing Heating & Air, and especially about our technician, Cody Perry. What started as what looked like a simple backup turned into a complete nightmare. I first called my home warranty company, and the plumber they sent out asked where my cleanout was. I told him I…
Keith was very helpful, professional and knowledgeable. Fixed the problem and didn’t try to sell me a service I didn’t need. Will definitely call this company next time I need plumbing done.
professional, always early thank you for everything. You guys do very happy customer.
Axel was the best plumber that has provided service in the last 15 years. He was honest, professional, timely, patient in providing all the information I needed and was above and beyond in all areas. He exudes all things Bud's Plumbing!!
Prompt service…on time…pleasant demeanor
Jerry is great! He is very professional, personal and skilled!
Keith from Bud’s Plumbing saved the day! My bathroom sink has progressively been getting slower to drain until this morning when it wouldn’t drain at all. Enter: Bud’s. They sent out Keith within a couple of hours. He was very professional, knowledgeable, a pleasure to talk to, and fixed the sink without issue.…
The thing that most impressed me about BUD’S PLUMBING was their communication and that they did not try to sell me something that I did not need.
Seth and Chris were amazing. Showed up quick, at later hours and got to fixing my plumbing issue. These guys go the extra mile to ensure their customers are satisfied. Great work on getting my toilets unclogged!
We had Axel as our technician. Axel was very honest and did a great job fixing our main cleanout. We would definitely recommend buds, plumbing heating and air again.. We had another company come out right before them and give us a quote. That was outrageous and I’m pretty sure they lied to us about some stuff..
Very friendly and thorough service! Thank You!
Great service all around, Keith was very helpful in unclogging our kitchen sink and provided some nice advice on how to keep it maintained so that we wouldn't encounter the issue again. Really appreciate the honesty and how efficiently he got our kitchen sink fixed, highly recommend this company.
Keith was very professional, on time, clean and tidy, everything you could hope for in a plumber.
