Wow. Alex and his crew worked quickly and efficiently to repair our outdoor natural gas service to our BBQ and fire pit, after determining where the gas was leaking and the reasons. His problem-solving was spot-on, the ability of his team to dig beneath our concrete patio to access our line was truly remarkable-- and their careful management of the dirt and repair to our garden area was very impressive. They power washed our concrete, painted exposed pipes to match our trim, and even replanted and mulched our garden bed so there was zero evidence they'd ever been here-- just in time for our holiday party. No one wants a problem to begin with-- let alone an unexpected crew working in our backyard right before the holidays-- but Alex's communication and commitment gave us confidence, and we were comforted by his team's attention to detail. We would absolutely recommend Commando Plumbing to anyone with a gas line plumbing issue.
Sink and shower drain were completely clogged. I called early Monday morning and got an appointment the same day at 10am. The friendly tech showed up at around 9:40am. He had to go pick up the snake tool a coworker forgot to put back in his truck. That took around 45 minutes. He called twice to provide an estimate when he will be back. The clogging was taken care very quick. The invoice was $580. If I use $100 for the trip, $200 for the work (1h), ~$20 for taxes, and what ever other costs calculated into the total, I still do not get to $580. In summary, good and quick service, but expensive.
UPDATE 10-14-25: Called a second time to clean out a couple clogged drains and update the shower plumbing (it was the original shower head and knobs from the 1970s). Marvin and Alex Gonzalez were so kind, honest and helpful, and they gave us a bargain to fix up our shower (compared to other companies). Will definitely be calling them again! See pics of before/after. They did a beautiful job! Original review: Solid plumbing company you hopefully won't ever have to call. They came right away and fixed our faucet, even going to Home Depot to get another faucet to replace it with! Our kitchen sink has been completely transformed from a generous trickle to a strong burst of water every time you use it. Would absolutely recommend!
Got right to work & he knew what the issue was just by describing the issue we had over the phone. They prepped us before doing any work and made sure we fully understood what they were doing and gave us the cost prior to doing anything. There was no pressure at all. Fully satisfied and I 100% recommend! We had a collapse pipe which will need to be brought up to HOA of Contempo Hall in which HOA has not responded to any of my calls but that’s a different topic.
Commando Plumbing deserves this 5 star review. They didn't even do any work for me. But, what Victor did, was answer the phone on a Sunday, showed empathy and patience in helping me with issues with my Rinnai tankless water heater. He didnt have to, but he did. Awesome customer service at Commando Plumbing. Keep up the great work! I'll be reaching out next year for my annual maintenance.
