Under sink hot water heaters are compact units that are installed under a faucet to supply it with instant hot water. Similar to traditional water heaters, there are two main types of under sink hot water heaters. One type provides hot water by storing and heating water in a small tank. The other type is tankless and the water is heated as it runs through the pipes under the sink.
Are you having problems with your sink not draining properly? No matter where your sink is located, such as the bathroom, kitchen, garage, or laundry room. Without a functioning sink it would be difficult or even impossible to perform simple tasks, such as washing your hands or cleaning dishes.
A properly functioning toilet is an essential part of any home. We provide expert solutions for keeping your toilet running properly, from fixing a clog to complete replacements. We understand that toilet issues can be unpleasant and disruptive to daily life. That's why we prioritize both speed and accuracy with every plumbing project, so you can get back to life as normal.

Quick and great service with competitive pricing. Juan did an excellent job! Replaced the kitchen faucet, lines and all the shut-off valves. Tested everything to make sure no leaks happened again. The cause: hot water flex line was blocked and pressure caused it to pop off at the faucet connection. This happened at 11:30 p.m. the previous night and soaked the kitchen. We had a hard time locating the pressurized hot water line, hence all the flooding. Also couldn’t turn the shut-off initially until wrench was applied. It’s unknown how old the kitchen lines were - but we know now! THANK YOU A

I called A-1 Plumbing with a toilet problem and had an appointment very quickly. Doug, the plumber, showed up as scheduled and repaired the toilet within the time allotted. He took the time to make sure it was no longer leaking. He was very professional and friendly. I would recommend A-1 Plumbing!

The first time I used them, to replace a water heater, things could not have been better. The price quoted was the same as the bill, arrived when promised, etc. The only issues were they didn't shut off the electricity and ended up blowing out an outlet next to the water heater and drug the old water heater onto the lawn removing a portion of sod with it.
The second service call was HORRIBLE!
Communication was so bad it was frustrating. They kept giving me a window of time that the servicemen would be at the house, to clear the drain, then they wouldn't show up during that window of time! They

Their quote was over $5300 for of course things that didn’t need to be done. Arc plumbing came in and did everything but they said they were going to do and more for $1200. Where A1 was going to replace the thermostat on my hot water heaterArc plumbing gave me an entire new hot water heater. And even when they said they were going to replace the thermostat they said it might not even solve the problem. They are criminals even to the point of taking advantage of disabled veterans

If you'd like to invite Dumb and Dumber into your home here's the company for you! We needed a leaky pipe fixed in our master bath. When they arrived I directed to the bathroom. Two minutes later they came out and said they'd needed to rebuild the whole faucet and it would be $395 to fix. I'm like there's nothing wrong with the faucet, we called for the leaky pipe under the sink. They went back in for a second look and found the real reason they were called. When done fixing the leak they asked if we had any other plumbing needs? I said no. They said they were told we

Our water heater began leaking profusely at the base. It was clear from the rusty water that it needed to be immediately replaced. I made various calls to businesses in our area to schedule the repairs. The earliest appointment I could get was one week out, but I found A-1 Plumbing and they managed to work me in the following morning. Their crew was a 10! Very knowledgeable, courteous, and efficient. We had hot water again in 2 1/2 hours. I would definitely recommend this business to anyone in need of the services they offer.

We had A-1 replace a yard hydrant that was leaking badly. The installers were fast and efficient and the office staff friendly. The reason I am giving three stars is because the poor quality of the hydrant they installed. There is no pressure regulation so the hydrant is either off or on full blast. The old hydrant had excellent pressure regulation. When I called to ask if there was some way to get pressure regulation I was told that I would have to buy an additional piece of equipment to control the flow to my sprinkler. We paid $400 to have a faucet replaced and we still need to spend money to

Had a washing machine drain overflowing and called A-1 and they sent 2 plumbers within an hour. The 2 plumbers spent 4 hours trying to fix the problem and never even fixed the clogged drain. They tried to add more on to my bill and just decide to charge me $200 dollars to leave without fixing the problem! The best thing they did for me was they gave me the number to Action Drain and Rooter and They fixed the clogged drain in a half hour and cost $92.50! Please go with Action Drain and Rooter Service and not A-1. $200 for absolutely nothing!

As always A-1 plumbing did an excellent job on my water heater, replacing the thermostat and restoring my hot water. This is about the third or forth time I have called A-1 plumbing for service, they are always professional and explain each step of the project being done. I would not hire any other plumbing service, I will be a customer of A-1 plumbing for life. Gary R. Jensen

Not impressed. First they charged me $200 to come to my business and look at my water heater. Second they did not fix the problem, but simply reset the unit by pressing the red button on the unit. I called them back to get them out to actually fix the unit instead of what they did. The person on the phone said they would have the technician call me back to discuss what they can do to help fix it. To date they have not called me back. That was two weeks ago. I had another company come out and fix the problem for the same price A-1 Plumbing charged me they did not fix the problem. I would look elsewhere

All the employees with A-1 Plumbing were polite, especially the office staff who I spoke with mainly because I wasn't at the house when the work was done. The plumbers arrived as scheduled and I appreciated the advance text with a photo of the technician who was to work on my house. The work was done as expected.

Calling A1 Plumbing was a $5,000 mistake.

We own a business near downtown and had a problem with an upstairs urinal. Called A1, they inspected the urinal and told us it needed a hard-to-get part that cost about $500, and they didn't have it in stock.

That was on Friday. Over the weekend... the urinal (which A1 had manipulated in order to inspect) leaked ALL OVER THE FLOOR (upstairs! hundreds of gallons!) and the water went through the floor/ceiling and trashed the downstairs office.

Called Judson Plumbing and they fixed the urinal in 15 minutes, with a part they had on their truck. Cost

I'm sorry to have to give a bad review of A1 Plumbing, but we are extremely disappointed in the pricing from this company. We were having new flooring installed in 3 bathrooms, utility room and kitchen. We had to have the toilets removed and then a plumber was required to reinstall them. We had 2 bathroom floors finished, and called A1 to reinstall the toilets. This is a very simple, quick job. The 2 guys who arrived gave my husband an estimate of $199 per toilet to reinstall. He thought that was high, so after looking him over they said they'd give him a "Senior Discount"

Extremely overpriced! Got a quote for $1500 bucks, for 2 hours of work, and $50 bucks in materials. Charging someone $725 per hour? Maybe I'll quit and become a plumber. haha.

Between a snow storm and the holidays our hot water heater quit. Our furnace relies on our hot water system so no heat either. Usual plumber booking out over a week. A-1 saw us the same day had to order a part overnight and were back within two hours of delivery to get us warm and toasty for xmas! Very grateful.

They came out and got the job done, but the per-service pricing (versus hourly) is insane. More than $500 for 90 minutes of work. Yes, the job is quoted before the work starts, but it was either take it on the chin or send a plumber away and starting the process again. We felt at a disadvantage through the whole process.
EDIT: We are now in the process of opening a CCB complaint. When we initially called A1, we asked them to level a belly in a pipe that is under the house but accessible (i.e., above ground). This was based on a diagnosis from a previous tech; A1 was provided with that invoice

I had A-1 Plumbing come out to fix my shower pipe supporting shower head was broken a piece was still in the feed pipe. It took them 15 minutes to do the work plus 20 minutes to get to my house and was charged $339.30 which I feel is excessive if not predatory pricing.

We had a water leak about 4 feet from the meter. We hired a professional leak detector to come out and locate and mark it. I had A1 plumbing come out for an estimate which they charged me $39.00. The estimator said $4,000 for a new line to be put in, which he was pushing for, or between $1,200-$2,400 to just repair the leak. I called Judsons. Judsons came right out and repaired the leak for $260.19. You read that right. Thank God for Judsons!
