Albert Nahman and his employees at Albert Nahman Plumbing & Heating in Alameda County make it their business to keep their customers happy-both during and after the installation process.

Technicians at Albert Nahman Plumbing and Heating are well-trained and enthusiastic service providers. Albert and his staff consistently keep abreast of the newest equipment and plumbing methods so their professional offerings stay fresh and relevant.

It's only right to expect a service company to clean up after themselves, but what if they took care to not make a mess in the first place? Along with his dedication to providing the best of materials and services, Albert Nahman has set a lofty goal of leaving every home cleaner than when his staff began the job. Technicians wear shoe covers when working in customer homes to protect the flooring, and meticulous cleanup after every job shows respect for every customer's space.

Harriet, a client, immediately noticed Albert Nahman Plumbing & Heating's approach to cleanliness. "They were very thoughtful and considerate," she said during a research phone call. "I liked the fact that they wore protective covering on their shoes when they came into the house."

All of Albert's technicians are bona fide employees of Albert Nahman Plumbing and Heating—not independent contractors or individuals from outside companies. He knows each of his employees and works with them to bring continuity to the services his business provides. "I personally did all of the repairs when I first started this business," Albert Nahman says. "Now it is my job to communicate to my technicians our mission in serving the customer."

The Real Bottom Line

Seeing the full picture is a big concern for most homeowners. A low bid does nothing to help the consumer when the final cost ends up being higher. Albert Nahman Plumbing & Heating sends a professional technician to each job site to review and precisely diagnose and price each repair. The customer knows the cost of the job before the work begins, so there are no surprises at the completion of the job.

While some customers mistakenly think only of the short-term dollar amount being quoted, preventing potential disasters is a wider-view approach to any home repair. Plumbing jobs gone awry can cause serious damage, and reoccurring problems or partial repairs only amplify the chance for a major mess and expense. Albert Nahman and his team take the time to educate their clients about potential problems, giving homeowners the tools to make well-informed decisions.

"He approached the job logically and carefully. He was very knowledgeable and straightforward," said Mary during a research call to randomly selected customers. "He didn't try to do work that didn't need to be done."

Keeping consumers on the cutting-edge of new technologies is an integral part of Albert Nahman Plumbing and Heating. One of the first plumbing companies in the Bay Area to offer to customers tankless water heaters, Albert Nahman embraced the resource-saving technology long before the nation-wide push toward green energy. Albert's business is still one of the few companies in Alameda County that repair all brands of tankless water heaters.

    I am writing to thank you for the splendid work your professional staff did in bringing plumbing to a new laundry room....Your reputation as a man of great integrity, who provides competent and careful service is well deserved....I will spread the word as widely as possible that a great plumbing company exists in our midst." 

    —Ruth Rosen, Berkeley CA

     


    "Dear Mr. Nahman,

    I wanted to let you know how pleased I am with their installation of the two toilets and the water heater.  The cleanup was A plus.  The two men handled the heater as though feathers and drilled through resistant materials and made new openings where old ones had decayed.  I wanted you to know how pleased I am.  Thank you to the two installers, Paul and Stanley."

    —Sharon Divitt, Oakland CA


     "...It was fun having the guys who did the work around our home.  Although they were obviously highly skilled, they were also pleasant people, polite, considerate and with senses of humor.  It seems that so often these days one cannot wait to have service people gone.  However, this was not the feeling we were left with as a result of our interaction with Albert Nahman Plumbing.  In sum, we highly recommend Albert Nahman Plumbing & Heating."

    —John & Sherry, Berkeley CA


    "Albert Nahman Plumbing did a great job installing my tankless heater. One thing that stood out for me was how proactive they were in communicating when the electricity , gas and water would be turned off.  They removed my old heater, installed the new one and did a wonderful job cleaning up when they were done.  they showed up on time and completed the job in thr time-frame initially quoted. They also took care of the city of Berkeley inspection, which we passed."

    —Ed Saban, Berkeley CA


    "The crew from Albert Nahman was awesome to work with, very clean and professional. Work was done steadily, they showed us at each step what they were going to do and kept us apprised. ...After all the line was replaced and the dirt put back, you couldn't even tell they had been there except for a nice new clean-out where it should haveen in the first place. We highly recommend Albert Nahman Plumbing & Heating."

    —Kimberly Walsh


     
    "The plumber arrived right on time, a few minutes early and worked quietly and efficiently. Total job took 1.5 hours, removing old toilet, swithching seats and installing new toilet. No hidden charges! Phone quote was actual cost. Plumber was pleasant, clean, covering his shoes in the house.  Plumber wrote detailed succinct bill.  What could have been a nightmare job was a pleasure to deal with! Called the company on a Monday, midday; the job was done by 3:30p.m. the next day. One stop shopping, without having to play subcontractor on the job. This company is a winner! I would certainly use for all my plumbing needs."

    —Sandra North
