I had a leak from the p-trap in our bathroom that I was struggling to correct . I called Magic Plumbing and a technician was at my house in an hour and after 2o minutes of work the problem was solved. I have used Magic for sewer line replacement, hot water heater replacement and installing a sink and toilet in our…
Anthony did and has always done a 5 start job. It would have been 5 star rating if there hadn’t been a disconnect between the billing office and dispatch, technician, & customer.
Edgar was amazing! Knowledgeable, nice and professional. I would definitely recommend Magic Plumbing!
Thanks Alberto!
Cory replaced our water heater and he was super friendly and efficient! I'd happily work with him again.
Very professional and thouro
I had an urgent hot water heater replacement need. They were easy and fast to schedule. Chris was very knowledgeable, communicative, cooperative, and efficient in solving my problem. I’ve used Magic a few times and will continue to!
Our old water heater failed on Sunday morning. We had to turn off the water to the house to stop it from gushing water in our basement. Chris got here at about noon, worked until 5:30 removing the old water heater and installing the new one. He did a great job, was polite and efficient, and now we have a clean garage and hot water. Thanks Chris!
Edit - I called Magic about installing a new kitchen faucet; we also had a toilet that was leaking from the tank in to the bowl. I'd installed a rebuild kit, but that didn't help. I had also asked them to see if they could get an upstairs toilet to flush a bit more efficiently. They ended up sending TWO GUYS; it…
Our plumber, Jose Nolasco, was very prompt for our appointments. He understood our plumbing issue and quickly set up a plan to resolve the problem. Very friendly and knowledgable service! We were very happy with the overall experience.
Steve was pleasant and professional. He's great–friendly, professional, and explains things well.
Fast, easy, effective, nice technicians
Chris from Magic Plumbing did excellent work, high quality, fast and was also very personable, overall job was very well done
Marcos is both knowledgable and personable. Did a thorough professional swap out installation for my 40 gallon gas water heater in just a few hours. Thanks Marcos!
I woke up to a busted water heater leaking water into my garage. Bernardino replaced the water heater within the same day. Really thankful I went with magic plumbing. Bernardino did an awesome job!
friendly, responsive and super professional.
I had a water heater replaced and Chris did an excellent job installing it. A few problems occurred, which he took care of right away. He took time explaining the safety features to me. He also checked to see if my pipes were leaking, due to a shower leak I had originally called about. He told me how to address…
Remove and replace a traditional tank water heater with a tankless water heater. Tough crawl space to work in made removal difficult. The estimate was for two men two days and it was a full day job and Marcos and his assistant did not stop until it was finished. Marco did an excellent job, very hard worker and very…
Everything about the service was pleasant. Initial contact. Scheduling, and especially Dino who is a delightful man and very good at his craft.
sewer was plugged. majic plumbing cleared it. ]
Magic Plumbing is an exceptional service! The guys were early, very professional and friendly, and worked very efficiently. We have already asked them to complete another job and will continue to use them for all of our plumbing and heating needs. I highly recommend them!
A friendly young man , really efficient and explained the process really well.
I highly recommend Magic Plumbing. We have used them in the past. This time they replaced our water heater. They stand by their work; offer competitive pricing and always go out of their way to accommodate the customer!
Miguel showed up in a professional manner and explained the waterheater problems. He was patient with me until I understood that I needed a waterheater replacement. I agreed and purchased a new unit. I really appreciate how he spoke with me.
I was an Atlas customer for many years until they reduced their service hours. Decided to give Magic Plumbing a shot since they are very near my address. Ryan came out and gave us a fair assessment. The priced quoted was the price paid. It was more expensive than I would have liked but he did a great job with the…
Same day hot water heater insulation when we needed it!
Not an easy installation by all means. Water heater was 5 feet high hidden behind a post that needed to be removal but Dino and Ryan did a fantastic job and kept smiling the entire time. Two more water heaters to be replaced in 3 years. You bet I will call Magic Plumbing again.
Rick and his partner were great. They were friendly, knowledgeable and very capable. The job was challenging in tight quarters. Highest recommendation!
Adam and Lucky were professional and efficient. They were friendly and worked quickly. I am very pleased with the final product. Would highly recommend them.
Very professional, good quality and reasonable price.
Great team to work with and great communitioncation!
I have used Magic Plumbing for small, medium, and big repairs for almost a decade. They are always very knowledgeable, kind, and get things done well. Customer service is also very responsive and on top of it. Highly recommend!
Magic Plumbling was responsive as we urgently needed to repair our tankless water heater. Their staff are professional and helpful. The technician assigned to us provided quality work, was friendly, professional, clean, and completed the work within the estimated time frame.
Alberto Alegria did very professional and courteous work on replacing multiple devices, including new water heater and new furnace in my SF house. He was very creative in replacing a door knob that prevented closet door closing. He stayed with the project until all issues were resolved. Thx Magic and Alberto, Bill Maxey
Adam and team were very professional in the installation of our water heater.
The water heater was replaced within a few hours of discovering the problem and calling Magic Plumbing. Adam and Lucky did a great job of informing us about what was needed and getting the work done.
Quick response, on time service on the weekend, friendly professionals, and replaced our water heater very quickly when they came.
very professional, responsive
Chris and Patrick were awesome! Came before scheduled time and did a fantastic job in a very confined space. Explained the whole process, were pleasant and courteous and cleaned up afterwards too. I will definitely be calling on them for any future plumbing issue that arises. Thanks guys!!
This is the third plumbing job I’ve had Magic plumbing out to work on and as before their plumbers are knowledgable, prompt, and a pleasure to work with. They are the only ones I call. Chris was fantastic, discussed the project with me at the start, kept me updated through the work, and walked me though the…
