Big kudos from us to Mike Testa Plumbing. The backflow preventer for our garden irrigation needed to be re-installed because of pipe breaks resulting from the original shoddy installation (by someone else). Their plumber did a terrific job and was very knowledgable and capable. He also overcame a potentially difficult problem that, if not solved, would have cost us a lot of money and no end of hassle. Thanks for that! I would call Mike Testa Plumbing again in a heartbeat.

We were in a bind with a water leak that erupted in to a much larger pipe break than we realized. Mike Testa Plumbing was able to send someone over that afternoon in between jobs (we were fortunate) and Darien was able to "patch it up" while he ordered new parts to be installed in a few days. Thankfully he allowed us to have water and take showers! Kurt came out for the second repair and was able to fully repair the pipe leak, much to the happiness of our family and NMWD! He also then checked all of our toilets and faucets to make small repairs. Wow - they were wonderful. Great service, good value

I couldn't believe the charges to fix a leaking bathroom faucet and to replace a new kitchen faucet the bill is $691.05. I provided the kitchen faucet, I know Moen's price to replaced it is $180.00. I don't know why I called Mike Testa. What a mistake, Testa claims 4.25 hours, unbelievable charges as a Senior labor rate of $160.00 per hour. The young man Testa sent to do the job. We weren't sure if the young man was up to do the job. Anyway, my husband 86 and I 74. Now we understand, why unscrupulous companies take advantage of Seniors. For our fix income that is thousands

Alex came out and assessed our clog issue and was extremely thorough and detailed about what our issue was. When we called back to say we still had a clog in another area, he came back immediately and double checked everything and made very helpful recommendations. Very kind and considerate service from him and staff answering our calls. HIGHLY recommend!

Six stars if that were possible! Mike Testa Plumbing did a great job replacing a tankless water heater - they helped us select the right model, and the total cost was much less than that quoted by another of the major Marin plumbing service firms. Our service person (Darin IIRC) showed up on time, and did a very nice installation. Also helped us with the building permit process. Definitely will use these folks again when plumbing tasks come up.

The Mike Testa company and their incredible staff/technicians are the embodiment in what you'd expect in a world class plumbing company!! I wouldn't chose anyone else or search for no one else for that matter. I know those words hold a lot of weight but given that the second after I called them because I had flooding issues with drain in the bathtub, toilets and sinks. Mike Testa Plumbing were able to quickly send out technicians (Ben & Patrick). How helpful were they? Extremely! Awesome communication from everyone that I spoke to. I would give them 6 stars!

One of the best company I have ever work for or with. I work for Mike for 3 years. Before I moved to Texas with my family. While out there I kept in touch with the guys. When I had a Family emergency. And had to move back to California. I called and had a job waiting for me before I left Texas.
I love that Mike and Kyle do business the old school way. Your word and a hand shake. You sign the invoice and they send you a bill. Or if you really want to pay right then. You will have to call the shop to pay them. And they don’t believe in having us look for problems. But know if we do see an issue

Kitchen faucet failed on Thursday night. Called Mike Testa Plumbing early Friday morning and had to leave a message. Someone called me back within two hours and they dispatched a mechanic on Monday 8am. Aaron was friendly, personable, professional and had a new faucet installed within an hour. Very pleased and impressed with the service and will absolutely use them again.

We were sold an faucet from Testa that was damaged. Instead of replacing it we paid for 5 service calls because of a leaky faucet. When we finally contacted Mike he challenged us by saying "How do you know the faucet is leaking?" REALLY!! When you see water running out of the sides of the faucet it is insulting to be questioned. I would never recommend this plumbing service unless you want to wash $1800. down the drain.

I called Mike Testa plumbing initially because of the Diamond Certification. The project was to replace 2 old enamel kitchen sinks with 2 stainless steel sinks. They sent out a project manager, Don, who helped me make sure I had all the parts I needed for the job. Not being a remodeling type of person, I needed some handholding and he walked me through the process and reviewed the parts with me before we started the job.
When the time came for the job, it was trickier than it originally seemed because after 6 weeks of phone calls, I was not able to find a tile company willing to come out and

Love these guys. They did all the plumbing on our remodel and did a great job. Most recently, I had an issue that required a fair degree of complexity, and needed some creative thinking how to route a few lines. Joe M. came out and quickly diagnosed the problem, explained his solution and then executed quickly and flawlessly.

He told me if there not familiar with any kind of products we have to call tech support of course there charge the costumer as well for waiting on the phone. Button line for 2.5 hours of work the bill was $ 400 no parts include.

I just wanted to let the public know what poor and unprofessional interactions we had with this company. First we called for an estimate to have a leak under our house repaired. The first "plumber" sent out was too large to fit under the house. We were told another "plumber" would sent out. Second "plumber" went a little way under the house and we were told "it was too wet" to continue the estimate. We were then told we would have to hire Serve-Pro to dry the area out before any estimate work would be done. Laughingly the "plumber" stated "it is going to be expensive". At this juncture we decided

Mike Testa Plumbing is our new go to plumber. Joe was exceptional. Prompt, clean, courteous and explained things really well. Gave us great tips that saved us money. Rather than install the new toilet I bought, he recommended a different one that was really what we wanted- better height :). and gave me a recommendation of where to buy it for less. When he came back to install he didn't start a new ticket.
Quality work and worth the money.
