Love this service. Pete has helped me a few times, is always friendly and knowledgeable, and once was able to help me fix a leak myself over the phone based on a short description of my problem! -

Called to get a leaking boiler pipe fixed. Fast response, got a quote, and my boiler was not only fixed, but brought to code. Excellent job by Freddy and Carlos whom were very professional, knowledgeable, and informed me what needed fixing/replaced. Excellent! Will call them when I need pluming repairs in the future. As well as recommend them to others! -

Im so very happy with the professionalism and quality of work from Fred and Rescue Plumbing. Fred made what seemed to be a difficult job, look effortless and restored the kitchen sink to new. Freds communication was great; he let us know when he was going to arrive and walked me through how to result the issue going forward. He is an outstanding professional. If any plumbing needs arise in the future, Fred will be the man for the job! Thank you! -

Highly recommend, called in and they were able to send one of the team members, Freddy, out within hours to come by and give a quote, and then Noah and Emmanuel came to do the work later that day, they were super thorough, kind, professional and quick! Super grateful and impressed on how everything turned out. Seamless -

I am so pleased with the service I received today from Pete and Omar. I scheduled a service visit last night and they arrived first thing in the morning to handle our obnoxious washing machine drain problem that’s been a thorn in our sides since we purchased our unit years ago. Not only were they kind and professional, but Pete walked me through all my possible options for repair. We live in a “quirky” old building that has a slew of plumbing issues, not including those within our unit. They gave me information about our drain configuration that other companies had not mentioned and knew exactly how to tackle the problem and give us an estimate. We had them rod our drain while we mull over the estimate and plan of action, and they went above and beyond. After discovering my supply hoses were on their last legs, they set us up with an extra durable set so they will ideally last for years. They bill by the job (which I appreciate given our building is old and repairs are sometimes more time-consuming) and took their time making sure their work was sturdy. Pete taught me about things as he went and alerted me to a valve issue (and other issues) that we’ll need to tackle down the road.I was just remarking to my husband several days ago that there’s no integrity left in business, but Pete and Omar certainly reversed that opinion. This means a lot, especially being a female client who is used to being talked down to or brushed aside. Thanks, guys! -

Pete and his team arrived same day! He was very knowledgeable about both our faucet and toilets. He was able to fix our issues immediately and give us some valuable tips as new homeowners. I would highly recommend and we will absolutely be calling Pete again in the future! -

We did not end up needing to use Rescue Plumbings services but I still wanted to leave a review thanking Jay for his excellent service. We noticed a slow leak in our garage that we thought was coming from a plumbing line. Rescue answered first call and was able to come the same day. They quickly discovered the leak was actually coming from a damaged HVAC but still talked us through who to call, what to do, and how to repair the damage. They also provided us with a great referral and answered our millions of questions. It was excellent customer service and we will definitely be calling them next time we need any plumbing help. -

This was my first time using the service. Although I did not have an emergency, my kitchen sink was not draining well due to a problem with the garbage disposal. They were able to send someone within a couple days.And, they probably would have been quicker if I had labeled it as urgent.Pete and Noah showed up on time. They were friendly, polite, and informative. They installed a new garbage disposal which has been working perfectly. Im very satisfied with the quality of work. They completely cleaned up after themselves as wellI will use this plumbing service in the future. -

I needed a plumber for a broken kitchen sink drain system. Found this plumber on google and they were great! Even though it wasn’t urgent, they were able to fix the issue within 24 hours of when I called. Pete and his son were friendly, very knowledgeable and saved me a lot of issues in the future with their work. Highly recommend. -

Just had Pete and his son, Noah, come by for a faucet installation and they were true gentlemen throughout the process. They were kind, professional, and had a new faucet going for me in under half an hour. I highly recommend getting any and all plumbing needs taken care of by Rescue Plumbing Inc. Be sure to ask for Pete and Noah! -
Review 19 (2022-04-08 - Rating: 5)
Pete and Noah we’re very friendly and explained every detail before starting the work. The job was done cleanly and quickly. They even took the time to explain and display the end result of the work so we could see what was fixed. Highly recommended! -

Review 21 (2021-07-26 - Rating: 5)
Pete and Noah came out to repair 3 things and did a quick and amazing job. They replaced a hosebib, replaced a drain assembly in a bathroom, and diagnosed, and fixed a rust issue in our shower, all in 3 hours, including getting parts. The best part of their work is that they explained the problem and how they were going to solve it. They also listened to all our questions and answered them seriously. If you hate it when service providers talk over or past you and do not explain their logic, youll appreciate Pete. Next best thing is that they do not nickel and dime you. While replacing a steel nipple on the shower head, they also flushed the water system to eliminate a bunch of residue that had been reducing our shower pressure, no extra charge. Last thing that I appreciated was that Noah is Petes son; its great that he is learning the trade from his dad. They are definitely the first people well call when we have a plumbing issue again. -
Review 22 (2021-10-13 - Rating: 5)
I cant bring to express how happy and pleased Ive been with Rescue Plumbing! I had basement flooding that 5, yes 5 other plumbers could not figure out. I ended up needing major inside and outside plumbing work done to fix the issues. I worked with Pete and Noah and throughout this process and they were quick, accurate, professional. They have done the job and done it right and I finally dont have to worry every time it rains if my basement will flood or not. I know it will not flood now and Im thrilled.Thank you!!! -
Review 23 (2020-08-29 - Rating: 5)
The plumbers Pete and his apprentice Noah were knowledgeable (educated me about the toilet I purchased), helpful (hauled away materials), and eager to do the job right. I was very impressed and relieved to have them sent out in a short turn, high stress situation. Excellent service from true professionals. Much appreciated! -

Loga and Omar were very proficient and good with their work. I personally always have bad experiences with plumbers but this was definitely the best. Will call this company again, preferably ask for the same workers. They did their job very nicely and in a good amount of time. -

Pete and Noah were called in for an emergency water backup situation. They showed up on time and were very friendly and professional. They walked me through what was going on and what they were doing because they needed to use a sewer camera. Let me tell you, I have fond respect for someone like Pete who’s been doing this for a while, had the professional courtesy to educate his clients and inform them every step of the way. Listing out all the options and being totally candid about all that is being done. Would recommend them to anyone having any sort of water/plumbing situation. -
Review 28 (2021-12-01 - Rating: 5)
Extremely knowledgeable. Rescue Plumbing has helped me on several occasions. Inspecting gas lines, installing a range, and helping reconfigure my basement plumbing when a big issue came up. Theyve always been on time, or have communicated & made things right if an unavoidable issue came up (in one case a medical emergency affecting on of their best plumbers that was scheduled. Joey is awesome.)I had a really complicated issue in the basement, and they were great about diagnostics & next steps to make the system legal and lasting. A big thank you. -

Rescue Plumbing has found themselves a gem with Pete Ismail. I found Pete to be highly experienced and knowledgeable with all things plumbing related. I appreciate he exists because with his expertise we were able to confidently identify the cause of our blockage and what we need to do to fix it. Thank you to Pete and his team! -

Review 31 (2021-04-26 - Rating: 5)
Just had Pete and his son come out for an estimate to run a gas line to my laundry closet to hookup a dryer. He was very honest in that the significant cost to convert the dryer from electric to gas was not worth it, and that I should just switch the outlet from 110v to 220v. Other plumbers might have pushed me to into the job, but I really appreciate him being truthful with what’s necessary, especially since I know nothing about plumbing. I’ll definitely keep them in mind for future plumbing needs. -

Pete and his team were awesome. Our dishwasher wouldnt run, except for one hour quick wash. Three different people gave three different diagnosis. Pete was the only one who caught a pinched copper pipe under kitchen sink. He assured that it was the only problem and dishwasher will run fine after the fix, thats exactly what happened. Easy appointment, free estimate, honest diagnosis and quick fix. I highly recommend them. -

We had a gas leak and the gas company shut off our gas. I picked Rescue Plumbing based on their reviews and they didn’t disappoint. They are very responsive (another company I called didn’t answer and never responded to my voicemail). Dex was the main plumber and he is extremely knowledgeable. Dex has a lot of experience and both explained and showed what he was doing. The prices are reflective of emergency plumbing but worth it if you need something fixed quickly and done well. -

I highly recommend Rescue Plumbing. Theyll take great care of you! -

Review 93 (2019-11-07 - Rating: 5)
A couple of weeks ago, I found out my toilet was clogged, and I had a broken tank as well. I had checked online for different companies to give me an estimate on fixing the issue. I went through six different companies, and they all had high prices. The last company I checked was this one. I was surprised at how low the cost was. I didn’t hesitate, based on the reviews, it seemed people had good experiences. I made an appointment, and right away, Bob and his helper Santos came over and took care of the issue. They were polite, respectful, and knew what they were doing. They reassured me that everything was going to work out. The cost was relatively low to what I expected based on other companies. I would not hesitate and recommend these guys. Now I know who to go to if I ever have any plumbing issues. -

Excellent service! We will only call Dax and Rescue Plumbing in the future. -
