Plumbing reviews in South Plainfield, New Jersey

Had an issue at my parents house with a serious clog backing everything up and we tried a couple of things/spots with my dad‘s friend and couldn’t figure out the issue. I contacted Luis over at FMS Plumbing at almost midnight and was surprised he even responded so late!! Came the next day and in under 10 mins the issue was resolved!! Extremely satisfied with the customer experience and knowledge. In the future I will never think twice about who to contact!! THANK YOU!!

After Ida passed by a few weeks ago she left a flooded basement and laundry room in her path of destruction. It looked like something out of a horror movie
On my son’s recommendation I called FMS and Luis promised to come by, evaluate and provide an estimate
Next morning he was here at 8:30 am
Detailed the process/cost and ensured once the job was completed I would never have to go through that nightmare again

The Team with Eric as their leader installed a Sewer Back-flow Valve. YAY!!!
They were puntual and did a great job including the cleanup
Everyone involved was very professional, friendly and knowledgeable.
It was a big job with many steps but I have never seen such wonderful work. Perfect outcome!!
Eric took the time to explain all pertinent details. He is very knowledgeable and his experience shows. He is just wonderful
I am very happy with the end results and now enjoy peace of mind.
Happy to say this latest storm did not cause damage 😊
Going forward will call them for any future plumbing issues and will recommend in a heartbeat !!

They were incredible responsive -answering my texts way after business hours. Gave me a quote Monday and were able to replaced my hot water heater the next day. They were also able to get the hot water heater I wanted (a tankless Rinnai). Highly recommend!

Awesome guy. Came out to fix my radiator did a great job. Unfortunately when you do plumbing doing one thing might break something else that is old, which is what happened. Same guy came back and fixed the problem for nothing more than the cost of the parts, wasn't his fault so that was extremely generous. Definitely recommend and will absolutely use again.

Our furnace broke on the coldest day of the year. FMS was able to come out same day and diagnose the problem. He special ordered parts for next day pick up to get us back up and running as fast as possible. The team is very knowledgeable and responsive. Great customer service and would highly recommend.

Called the owner Louis on Mother's Day for a drain cleaning. He is an easy going guy and professional as well. He worked hard yet reasonable charge. Louis helped us unclog the big pipe within an hour and even saved us more money by showing his professional advice and action. Overall this company is able to serve customer satisfaction.

We use FMS for our business and I use them for my home as well. Very professional and reasonable prices. It’s always an emergency when we call and they always make time and show up quickly. Highly recommended

FMS installed our dishwasher and moved the water and gas line as we rearranged our appliances. They were quick to respond, courteous and did the job quickly and efficiently. They also moved our appliances with care and did a clean job. They were wonderful and we will be using them for more jobs in the future.

I found this plumber on Angie's List and they were highly recommended as they are here so I am very surprised by their non response. When I selected FMS Plumbing and Heating, I instead received a call from Luis who works for Arrow Sewer and Drain. So I am guessing that FMS subcontracted my request to another plumber. Anyway Luis agreed to visit my home the next day, Saturday at 10:00 AM. On Saturday at 10:30 AM I received a text from Luis that he was going to be late. When I asked for an new arrival time I did not receive a response until 30 minutes later indicating he did not know and that he was stuck on an emergency call. Would it be possible to reschedule to Sunday. I agreed and we setup an appointment for Sunday at 10:00 AM. On Sunday I waited until 10:45 AM as Luis did not show up nor did I receive a phone call or text indicating that he was going to be late. I texted him at that time telling him that I could no longer wait for him and no longer needed his services. I cannot recommend using Angie's List any longer as I am not sure that they vet these service providers and that the reviews provided are actually legit. As for FMS/Arrow whatever the correct name of the company is I would not recommend using either company as they do not show up nor have the decency to even contact you to let you know they are not coming.

FMS Plumbing is very good, professional and responsive. I had a corroded steam pipe that was leaking and needed replacement. Luis Fanlo and Nick came quickly and checked the pipe, provided a reasonable estimate and completed the work the same day. Very professional and knowledgeable. A pleasant experience. Will call them again if I need plumbing services.

Can’t say enough positive things on this company! Eric did a full day of work at my new house in Warren (new water heater, a few pipe repairs, new sup pump, new on/off water valves, few other things also) he explained everything so well, he did and repaired everything beyond expectation and went above and beyond to give me TOP quality work. He even labeled the levers for me so I knew what was what. Eric cut no corners, and altered his schedule to get the work done quickly for me. Plus he was super friendly and professional. Highly recommend, (and I never write reviews by the way)! Also - pricing very fair and better than other companies.

I cold called this company because my basement was flooded by Storm IDA. Jerry answered and was very kind to me in my time of need. He promised to get someone out to me as soon as possible. He delivered big time ❗️ Eric Thomas worked on my sump pump. He was extraordinary ‼️ The best Plummer I have had in 23 years of owning a home. Professional, considerate, help with all my questions. But mostly his experience and knowledge was undeniable. It was truly a pleasure to work with him. From the 2 people I interacted with, it seems this is a company that cares about its Customers. That is a blessing in this day and age.

FMS did a great job repairing a clogged sewer line. Luis and Brett were early for their appointment. The job turned out to be bigger than expected. They provided an immediate quote and guaranteed completion same day. All work was professional and would recommend to anyone needing plumbing services .

Luis and team have done two projects for us. We’ve been impressed and very satisfied with his work. Punctual, reasonably priced and just a great guy to work with. Highly recommend!!!

Very nice guys who I would have in my home at any time. They make you very comfortable while doing a professional job! Don't waste your time with anyone else because FMS is the best.

We needed to have a very slow draining kitchen sink addressed and it was a blockage well beyond the p-trap. Luis responded almost immediately at 10 pm at night and came the next day to investigate as promised. He came prepared with all necessary tools and quickly cleared the blockage. When he was done, he tested the drains over and over again to ensure that the job was completed and even took the time to clean-up and wipe down the whole area before leaving. He was friendly, professional, and the price was very reasonable. As the owner, he clearly takes pride in his work and I would highly recommend his services.

Used FMS plumbing for a collapsed sewer pipe. They dug up the old one and replaced it with PVC. It was the fact that they gave me all the potential price scenarios before agreeing to use them. It ended up being the least expensive scenario, lucky for me. But they started right away and finished quickly. I was back to my regular day to day without having to deal with a drawn out plumbing disaster. Highly recommend using them.

This is the 4th time we have used Arrow Sewer and Drain over the last two years. They consistently provide excellent service at reasonable rates. They are polite, professional and explain in advance what they need to do. I highly recommend them.

Called FMS after reading positive Google reviews. The reviews were correct; FMS does excellent work. Luis (a very nice young man) repaired a clog in the kitchen sink and the drainage pipes leading from the sink. While at my home, he also replaced a damaged valve. The work was done quickly and professionally; I will use FMS again and highly recommend them. By the way, this work was done during the Covid-19 pandemic and Luis wore gloves and a mask while in my home; awareness of his health and the health of his clients is another positive point about him and the company.

I'm updating this review based on using Luis/FMS this past week, though the word "using" is not exactly accurate here. Our well pump broke which left us with no water at all. Understand, this is not a minor item. Luis answered the phone right away and was there in a few hours. Great! He was unable to fix the issue but said he would be back. He never came back. Even though he texted and said he would be there shortly the next day - he never showed up. Did not answer several texts. Did not answer the phone. I have no idea what happened nor where he went.

We had to get someone else to fix the issue.

After looking at all the reviews here and my experience with Luis, I think he's a pretty good guy who has trouble saying no to people. He wants to help you but doesn't have the time. I attribute this to youth, but you have to understand that a broken well pump is a major problem and if you're too busy to take the time, just say as much.

I won't be able to use Luis/FMS again because I just don't trust that he's reliable. I feel bad for writing this, but it is what it is.

My original review is below. I will leave this as I originally wrote it:

After trying 2 other plumbers (that did not return my calls) I found FMS online based on a local Facebook group recommendation. I ended up talking to Luis who answered my call at 9:30 and had my problem fixed by 3:30 that afternoon, even though it was not critical at all. I am not sure what is going on with the previous review, but I really have nothing but good things to say about him. Super nice guy, easy to talk to, and given how much these things can cost, very very affordable. I highly recommend FMS/Luis and will not hesitate to call him in the future if I need anything.

We tried this company for the first time and we are satisfied. We had a massive clog and they took care of it. This included breaking cement and finding the leak. They are very accommodating and pleasant. We will definitely use them again. They have all the necessary equipment to find clogs and leaks. They use camera to get to the problem.
