Fred and his team did a great job and came through in an emergency situation. I would recommend them for any commercial project.
The Alert Pioneer Plumbing team is top notch! Fred is very knowledgeable and does what he says he will do. They are prompt, keep the job site clean and always very courteous. Do not hesitate to call The Alert team!
From start to finish the professionalism, expertise, care, and attention to detail was excellent. Our home was built in 1860 so there's always some ‘GOTCHA’, but Fred was up to the task and flawlessly took care of everything.
Old Lakewood home, plumbing over 100 years old. I called at 8am and he was there early. He clearly spelled out the problem and cost, even fixed a sink issue I didn't know I had, cleaned up, and the final bill was exactly what he said.
Unbelievable service. Fred came out the very next day. Extremely knowledgeable and thorough, snaked and camera'd my sewer pipe. His pricing was very reasonable and I never felt I was being ripped off. I'd recommend Fred to EVERYONE.
Fred is not a hit-and-run plumber. He listened, asked questions, and educated me about sewer pipes. He camera-inspected, snaked, then inspected again. Skilled, knowledgeable and thorough, he works to achieve the right diagnosis.
As an architect, I've had lots of experiences with contractors. Fred and Pioneer Plumbing are amongst the very best! Both repair and new work, it all works perfectly and looks beautiful. He is a master plumber and craftsman.

We found a company that not only fixed our issue but backs his service at a reasonable cost. As a first-time expectant mother, peace of mind goes a long way. We're very appreciative to have found a trusted service. Highly recommend!
The Alert Pioneer Plumbing Company has done several projects for the restaurant, some requiring in-depth evaluation. Fred is an expert, a true professional in his trade. His work is an exceptional value.
Fred gave me a great quote and a timeline which he then stuck to. I've been through many contractors who don't know what they're doing and Fred is an absolute breath of fresh air. He keeps his word, works fast and to a high quality.
Cut into an existing cast iron stack while roughing in a new toilet and sink in my store. Fred was prompt, efficient and cleaned up, even when the upstairs tenant flushed mid-cut. He kept his cool through a nasty situation. Very professional!
Fred & Joey were hired to install a water system and an additional water line so I could fill a temporary potable tank. They faced many challenges, stayed professional, and thought outside the box to get the best setup possible. Highly recommend!
Fred has handled many plumbing problems for me since 2013, consistently on time, relentless in finding solutions, and able to articulate assessments, plans, and options. A dignified, humble demeanor and precision that translates well to the work.
Such a positive experience! Courteous and efficient. They took care of our plumbing at home and two of our businesses. If you have to call a plumber, call Pioneer.
