First time using Able Plumbing Sewer & Drain and I'm very pleased with their GREAT customer service!!! It was a pleasure working with Sabrina to make my appointment and answer all of my questions since this was the first time needing our septic tank cleaned. Albert, the plumbing technician was a pleaseure to work with as well. The guys were efficient and clean with the nasty job :) Albert let us know how to help keep our septic tank cleaner/clogfree by following a few basic rules; one being don't use wipes even when the pkg says it's ok for septic tanks. I appreciate good interations with people I'm working with and Able Plumbing Sewer & Drain is top notch from the office employees to the field employees. Thank you Able Plumbing Sewer & Drain as I was a little worried by some of your other Yelp reviews. FIVE STARS!!!!

Able Plumbing service did a wonderful job to install a sewer riser for my property in July, 2024. They are a trust worthy company and very efficient, careful for their work. I highly recommend for them.

I can't say enough positive things about the team at Able. Contacted them for a 2nd opinion on a sewer line backup that a different plumber couldn't resolve and quoted $25k for dig out and repair/replace of the line. Time was critical because a family member was returning home from a major surgical procedure in a few days and would need functioning plumbing during recovery. The owner of Able personally called after normal hours and scheduled his "go-to" tech to come out the next evening after already scheduled work that day. The technician was able to successfully clear the sewer line and clean the work area in under 2 hours and provided video of the line before/after the clean out. Wonderful communication, excellent service, and great follow-up!

This was a number of years ago but they left us hanging on a clogged storm drain job and their behavior was unforgivable. I concluded they only catered to fat public sector deals. Memories fade very slowly after such an ordeal.
Try Saratoga Square. If it doesn't show up, you will understand why. Nothing can be resolved at this point. Maybe there have been several organization changes since that time. Don't yell at me for being random. Yelp asked me to do a review out of the blue. To give you better insight look at your organization 12-14 years ago. Like an old war injury... it never goes away.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

Hi Gary, we appreciate you reaching out and it's unfortunate that several years later you decided to randomly give us a negative review. Please give us a call during business hours so we can rectify this situation, we do not see your name as a customer anywhere in our system.

The service personnel were very courteous and thorough. The owner didn't charge me for digging to expose the septic lids because his crews were delayed twice that left me waiting. The delays were not their fault though (emergency jobs). Overall value was great. I'll use them again.

Needed an Emergency Pump of my Septic Tank. Personnel arrive in the AM. Did a fabulous job cleaning out the Tank - Removed my Effulent Filter, cleaned it throughly and reinstalled. Left everything in great shape and provided feedback on my Tank, Leach Field and how well I maintain my Septic Tank usage. Wonderful experience! Will be using ABLE SEPTIC annually to clean and maintain my Outlet Effluent Filter. Helps to keep my Leach Field running smoothly!
Thank you Albert and Javier for a fabulous job!!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Mary D.San Jose, CA03Dec 30, 2023
Septic tank full and pipes clogged on Christmas Day!!!! In a nutshell, Able Plumbing emptied the tank and cleared the clog before noon!!!
Keep Able Plumbing on speed dial!!!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Aug 31, 2022
Good work. Clear communications. Reasonable price. That is my impression to Able Plumbing Sewer & Drain.
My toilet was not flushing properly. Something was interfering. A plumber recommended Able so I called them. Able gave me a 4-hour window for the next day. The fellow arrived, examined the problem, removed the toilet, and discovered myriad plant roots as the cause. He removed the roots, resealed the toilet, and now it works just fine.
I thought the price was fair; it was exactly what the office lady quoted.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Shawna L.San Jose, CA11116Sep 24, 2023Updated review
Another great experience with Able Plumbing! Hector came out on a Sunday Morning to help my elderly mother unclog her sewer. She was very impressed by how polite and clean Hector was. She said he was very knowledgeable and worked hard to unclog her badly backed up pipes. Highly recommend Able Plumbing, they are the absolute best!

And recently Chaz came out and fixed our leaking hose. He was professional and his work far exceeded our expectations. Katrina in the office is always friendly and she is quick to send someone out to help. My family and I, will definitely call Able Plumbing for all of our future plumbing needs.
