We called AW when all our sinks were backed up. Aaron was quick to respond and came to see us the same day. He was extremely knowledgeable giving us 2 options to fix the issue and was efficient even telling us how to prevent it from happening again. We will definitely be using his services again!

Aaron is a professional who has had a plumbing wrench in his hand since the age of 15. He knows what he is doing, he is thoughtful, communicative and very pleasant. Super nice guy and his work is top notch. He's a local guy.. give him your business. You can count on him.

Our water heater was nearing the end of its useful life. So our renters recommended AW & Sons as a reputable source for installing a new water heater. The young man who was assigned was friendly, punctual and efficient on handling the installation. We are very pleased with the response, service and the price.

These guys are great! Arron came to check out our minor drainage issue. He determined it wasn't really a problem and didn't need a costly repair. Didn't cost us anything. His response was super quick and he is very knowledgeable and honest. He explained everything in detail so we knew what we were dealing with. Will use him for all our plumbing needs.

Wow. This review is overdue.
AW Sons was the right plumber at the right time! We were in a bind as we had two bathrooms that needed repairs right away or construction would be delayed. The plumber our contractor uses was backed up for over two weeks! This was bad. Everyone told us to wait for the trusted plumber our contractor uses but I read AW Sons reviews and took the leap. So glad we did.
Aaron was quick, professional and beyond knowledgeable. His work was flawless and backed by a lifetime warranty. I was happy he is local as we are in SJC and strongly like working with other folks
