A.T. Weber Plumbing & Mechanical

Called and receptionist had no personality. Spoke with a guy that said it would be about «$ 75 to replace a shut off valve, shouldn’t take more than 15-​minutes». Replaced it in about 10-​minutes but wouldn’t leave a bill, said they would mail it to me. Two weeks later I get a bill for $ 148! For 10-​minutes of work!!!
Make sure they give you a written estimate so you don’t get swindled like I did!

I called this place multiple times and left messages, but no one ever called back. My landlord insisted that I use them, so I called again today. That was one of the rudest encounter I’ve had from a customer base business. Jody answered the phone and was immediately rude to me. As I was speaking to her… she kept saying «what»…and I had to ask her what was she not hearing and why did she feel the need to speak to me that way. She totally dismissed what I had and asked for my number so she could call me back after she checked the messages… OK. She called me back 2 ½ hours after. I missed the call and called her back, and she didn’t retain any of the information I gave her proceed to ask for everything again and then she kept saying «what…what…I can hear you». The whole encounter was really unprofessional and flat out rude! I hate that I even have to use this mess of a place! I will be advising my landlord that I refuse to use them going forward!!!
I didn’t like my initial contact with this company. However, the tech the sent out of nice and very knowledgeable. He changed my opinion a little, but I still do not appreciate that Jody lady and her horrible attitude.

They’ve helped me with my sump pump, great service as they are professional and very responsive (especially with emailing).

Have used A.T. Weber for service at least six times over the years. Always stellar service. ALWAYS. Once a guy had to come back to fix one of MY screw-up’s after an installation had been made. No extra charge. Can’t imagine service better than these guys’.

These guys are crap. Scroll through the reviews, the most useful as voted by the people of Unilocal are all the 1 star reviews. I, too, can personally attest to their incompetence and shady practices. They were required by the owner of the house (for I am not) to replace all hot and cold water pipes. They decided, without the owners consent, to replace the kitchen faucet and a perfectly good water heater. They neglected to fix the shower handles (which obviously leak; as told through water-​marked tile and operation of the shower[obviously apart of hot and cold water pipes]), the bathroom sink with an obvious homemade jerry-​rig attached (a cut out 2-​liter to catch the leaks), and stole a variety of things like; a post shovel, duct tape, adapters to the faucet they replaced and never flushed the system when they were done (Generally when one replaces things like water pipes and other fluidic systems, the last step is a system flush as to not ruin devices or clog filters, which are connected or in-​line, with copper shavings, rocks, sometimes air pockets depending on the system and pressure, and other such things that which collect in the new pipe or fall into the system during the job [after they left my shower head broke, I thought it was because they installed it incorrectly which was also obvious but after cracking open my shower head I came to a different conclusion [the shower head was less than a year old]) and they never picked up after themselves. I came home to half of my stuff (which was in the room they were working in) outside and the plumbers left already. They were supposed to come by and fix the shower handles but scheduled that job a month later and then cancelled the day of. This is just my impression of this all around shit company and my situation doesn’t seem that unusual after reading the useful reviews.

My wife had great experience with A T Weber. The plumber was on time, nice and added my dishwasher, garbage disposal, and fixed both toilets and even fixed my kitchen faucet I was having problems with. Ok price was fine, it felt like I got my moneys worth, and we all know «plumbing sucks» and it felt good to support Alameda.

Got stuck in a bad situation with a leaking water heater and a no show by another plumber on a friday afternoon. They came out and replaced water heater in less than 3 hours from original call. Amazing service and great technicians. Highly recommended!

Fair and Honest.
My tenant had a wallheater problem. After taking it apart, cleaning it, checking wires and swearing softly under my breath, I was not able to improve it’s function. I looked up my options online. The cost of a replacement heater is around the same price as groceries for a year. In hopes it could be repaired, I made an appointment to get it fixed.
A.T. Weber to the rescue! The repair person turned on the heater, looked inside and said this heater is functioning as it should. No charge.
He gave us some advice about getting the most out the heater and shazam! He was on his way. Better than I could have hoped for. If he had told me I needed to replace it and make a bunch of money for his company, I would’ve not known any difference. Fair and honest, huh?

Just had a scheduled appointment for a furnace check up and inspection. Steve showed up professionally and on time, conducted the inspection with no bother to me while I worked inside, and then communicated the results and his recommendations clearly and effectively. I could not be happier. Also, he noticed a faint whiff of gas in my kitchen, so he pulled out my stove and found a small gas leak in the connecting cable, which he replaced as part of the service visit as well. All of this took place in thirty minutes, and now I am ready to roll into the cooler months. Thanks a lot guys, you have a happy (and soon to be returning) customer!

I have now used A.T. Weber Plumbing twice, once for a toilet issue and most recently a leaky water heater that had to be replaced. Both times Todd was amazing and made sure both problems were taken care quickly and worked around our schedules to ensure we had hot water again ASAP. He is personable and timely and would recommend him to anyone

We have used A.T. Weber for our Alameda homes for many years. Everything from replacing a well pump to garbage disposal repair to replacing hot and cold water pipes.
They have always done an outstanding job, for a reasonable price (even pointing out many things that could be done cheaper and giving us discounts on the changed work). They are honest and dependable. One of the best contractors I have dealt with on home repairs.

The guys from AT Weber replaced our furnace and ducts this winter. Everyone they sent was really polite and nice, their bid was lower than the competition, they did the work on schedule and the workmanship looks good to me (and to the city inspector). Nice guys, good work, what’s not to like? I’d hire ‘em again in a minute.

The heat was very uneven throughout our house and not working in some areas. There was also a very complicated system for regulating it.
We had just bought the house and although it had been excellently maintained and outfitted by the previous owner the heating system seemed very complicated as far as control and regulation.
The technicians were very professional and courteous, got everything resolved quickly and showed me basically how the system worked.
They also were very attentive to my concern that the system should be easier to regulate and set it up exactly the way I asked.
I would highly recommend this company anytime.

First time Unilocaler.
I found these guys from Unilocal and wanted to Unilocal back how awesome they are.
Steve was amazing. I share plumbing with my neighbor and what was first thought to be a kitchen clog turned out to be a bit more serious. He was able to work under the pressure of my intensely anxious neighbor and get the job done with great skill and timely manner.
I will call them again should I run into another plumbing issue.

Todd has done many inspections for my clients and one time while clients were out of town discovered that the water was leaking before he had a chance to inspect it. Without asking or telling me the cost, he went to his truck, got his trusty water hose and started draining the water heater. He saved the clients from coming back to home possibly flooded. Todd and his crew get the work done and always make themselves available with in the time period promised. When they repair a water heater, furnace or a gas-​shut off valve or put in a new one they get the work done and they clean up after themselves.

Nothing worse than discovering that my water heater was leaking on a Sunday morning. I called four different plumbing businesses & left messages with all of them. Todd from A.T. Weber was the first to call me back in the early afternoon and was ultimately the only one to call back on Sunday.
Todd responded to my house within the time period promised. He informed that he could replace my water heater with a new one within the afternoon. He removed the old water heater, installed a new one, cleaned-​up and was done by 5:00. Todd was very personable and patient with explaining everything to me. My experience with A.T. Weber is Five Stars all the way!

Morgan from AT Weber left a little while ago after fixing some issues here, including a problem involving very low hot water pressure in the shower. Another plumber from a different plumbing company in town said that nothing could be done about the problem, that it was a foreboding indicator that big plumbing work was going to be needed and soon, and the end of the world as we know it, blah blah blah.
Thanks to this courteous, careful, and very skilled person from ATW, the hot water pressure was increased by a factor of five, without replacing a single part, and in less than an hour. It was a trickle before and now healthy and very strong given this is a house over a hundred years old.
And so we see an excellent example of the value of building a business on skill, common sense, and honesty. Making a case for bigger problem in order to snag a big job — not as effective. Yes the plumbing apocalypse will come to this house. But not until it has to. And when it does happen, these are the guys to call.

These guys are great. I have called them out a number of times to help with things around the house and they always come at the drop of a hat, are on time, teach me about what they are doing and also are reasonable priced. All nice guys too.

Have used Weber for two pretty large jobs over the past year or so (new tankless water heater, total bathroom replumb), plus several smaller jobs like running a gas line to our oven. They are always reliable, communicative and do a fantastic job.
Our house was neglected for about 50 years before we bought it, so there were a few unpleasant surprises (e.g. Todd discovered our gas line was electrified because of a fault in our ancient furnace– unfortunately he discovered it by getting slightly electrocuted). Even so, the quotes they give are always accurate; I never end up paying a penny more.
They might be the cheapest around, they might not. I’ve never cared to find out to be honest. I just always use Weber, because I know they’re going to do the job properly. So does everybody else I know in Alameda.

I work for a service company as a superintendent.
Today Weber Plumbing and Mechanical came in to jet out pipes in a corporate building, guys Mike and his friend were friendly and very cool, there was also a pump truck subcontracted to pump out all water out of the sump pump enclosure with their 3″ diameter hose.
Everything went well until Mike made a .25″ hole in the supply garden hose, they used this hose to complete the job after trying to repair it, the hose sprayed out around 300 gallons of water onto four floors of the garage, guys then left after completing the job, I asked them to clean out the water on the phone and they responded that they are on their way.
I let the pump truck go and I had a call from Mike and his partner in an hour telling me that their boss (Todd Weber) has asked them to turn around.
I later called Todd and he didn’t seem that he wanted to correct the problem, rather he was trying to push the fault to the pump truck company.
I explained to Todd multiple times that the reason for flooding the garage floors was the broken garden hose that his guys used but Todd was looking past that and did not want to cooperate with me.
These guys left me with a complaint from building management and I believe that every customer should stay away from companies that do not take responsibility for their own faults and mistakes.
Thank you — Stay Away!
