Bertini Mechanical

Paul Bertini & his crew did a wonderful job on replacing our furnace and water tank after a small fire left us with no heat! He was true to his quote and in line with our expectations on unit size and cost. His crew did great work including removal and clean up. They even had to shovel their way up our driveway to get their trucks in for the installation! We have already recommended Bertini Mechanical to several of our friends in the Arnold area.

Paul and son Jesse just did a marvelous job of replacing a rusting-​out water heater and recommending and installing a hot water recirculation pump. Excellent customer service, professional workmanship, and no mess left behind. Couldn’t ask for more. Having hot water almost instantly is not only a great convenience, especially in the morning, but is saving us a lot of water. Paul is also very active in giving back to the community, most recently serving as president of the Greater Arnold Business Association (GABA).

Paul and Jesse came today to service our unit and get it ready for winter. They arrived on time and did a great job preparing us for the cold weather ahead! Thank you!!!

Bertini Mechanical just finished replacing our defective HVAC unit. They worked diligently to force the manufacturer to honor the warranty. The new unit went in smoothly and the changes that were necessary were done in a very professional manner. It is so refreshing to find that quality workmanship still exists. Highly recommended.

Paul Bertini has been an absolute life saver. When we needed to upgrade plumbing and replace our home’s heating system Paul not only provided excellent customer service, but he and his employees (all skilled and very knowledgeable!) were able to get the work done quickly and for a competitive price. Paul’s quote for our heating and air system was $ 3,000 less than the previous bid, and he was able to start work on it 6 weeks sooner.
In addition, Paul had recommendations of other contractors to contact regarding our home remodel. Going with these contractors saved us a considerable amount of money and at no time did we feel we were sacrificing quality. In fact we are more comfortable with the quality of work from the contractors recommended to us by Paul than with the companies we were originally going to go with.
Prior to contacting Paul we had been disappointed by several contractors. The honest, blunt and to the point information and help Paul provided was very welcome. If you are looking for high quality work, completed quickly, and for a reasonable cost Paul Bertini will deliver.

During the summer and fall of 2014 we hired Bertini Mechanical to remodel one bathroom. Because the quality of work was so well done we had them
do another bathroom, rebuild our front stairs and manage the installation of our failing skylights. We were especially worried about the skylights but Bertini found and managed a crew that did an excellent job. We will definitely use Bertini Mechanical again. Five stars! Thank you!

Paul has done an awesome job with several projects at our business location. We are semi-​renovating the kitchen, and Paul has really come through for us. He installed a commercial range and hood, including a custom-​fabricated back-​drop — it looks amazing! He also handled some sink installations and plumbing corrections — all with a great attitude. Paul’s communication during the process was excellent, and he was timely with every appointment. Thank you Paul!

Superman arrived to save the day!
Paul Bertini, AKA Superman, is my man of the hour.
It doesn’t get to 97 degrees in Arnold too often but this past weekend it was ugly hot and humid and my air conditioning just up and quit.
I hear some of the air conditioning repair guys are running seven days behind… you know when it gets hot… the air conditioners all seem to die at the same time.
I called Paul and he came on Monday after 6PM. He had put in a full day and I was the last customer on the list. He could have gone home but he honored his promise to come on Monday. Figured out the problem and ordered the part.
The part arrived today and he called to say he would be here by 5PM and called again at 5PM to say he was running late but he would be here. He is a man of his word. He repaired a lot of air conditioners today. He arrived close to 7PM. I was his last customer and he fixed the problem and finally got to go home as it was turning dark.
My air conditioner is running sweet and I am a happy customer. Bertini Mechanical is professional, considerate and their prices are fair and reasonable.
I recommend Bertini Mechanical without reservation. They are the best!

I’ve used Bertini Mechanical twice to date and both time they showed up same day and fixed the problem. Very professional and faster than any company I’ve ever used while in the Bay Area.
Highly recommended.

This rate I bought a water heater. I called Bertini to get an estimate for installation alone. No disposal of the old water heater. The estimate was 802 $ 900. I asked what the hourly rate was and they want and they were not able to give me an answer. So dividing $ 800 and half still gives a rate of $ 400 an hour for service. I estimated the install time to be one hour. All it was involved was disconnecting the pipes and reconnecting the pipes to the top of the water heater. And they had no concern but to suggest finding another plumber that was cheaper.

I called and spoke to Paul who is the owner of Bertini Plumbing. I was speaking to him about having the water pressure in my home increased due to low pressure from the Water Company.
Paul was telling me about a pump system that would cost $ 1500.00 not including install. I had a few questions (Valid Points I Must Add Due To Our Circumstance) when out of left field he accused me of just priming him for info and that I was probably going to do this job myself.
Wow! How do you treat a client with such disrespect? He has fixed a frozen pipe at our home and has also fixed my furnace when it would not turn on.
I guess the take away here is not to ask to many questions.
He has just lost a loyal customer!
P.S He is not the only GIG in town!

Arrived at my parents vacation house in Arnold after 5pm on the Friday of MLK weekend with 10 friends from college. Turned the water main on, and water came pouring through the ceiling in the kitchen. I crawled into the attic to find a pipe that had burst in a recent cold snap. Bertini was out the next morning and fixed the pipe before some friends had even woken up! Bertini definitely saved the weekend, was quick to respond, and was not terribly expensive.

I had a toilet leaking from the tank and called Paul Bertini Plumbing at about noon.
He quoted me his labor price, asked what kind of toilet I wanted and quoted me a price for that too in the same conversation.
We just wanted a standard small toilet and nothing fancy.
I was so relieved that he understood that we weren’t picky and valued getting it done over choosing the shape of the seat!
He came out… SAME DAY and completely replaced the whole assembly. Even cleaned the floor around the toilet area.
He was considerate of my time, cleaned his feet before entering, took away all the garbage from the install, explained every step, and was entertaining to boot!
He was In. He was out. Professional and Personable. How refreshing.

Last year my genius wife found us a beautiful three-​floor home near Dorrington, where the snow frequently gets deep, and yet the summers are still blazingly hot.
The house was surrounded by snow when we moved in, and pretty much the only source of heat was a wood stove, which actually worked surprisingly well… provided you stayed up all night stoking the thing! Even then, though, you could store popsicles on the basement level.
Enter our savior: Paul Bertini!
He installed a wonderfully effective heating and AC system (and coordinated the installation of a propane tank from Mother Lode Propane – recommended also) in our home, and it totally transformed our lives. In the winter, a push of a button has the whole house warmed up in minutes, and in the blazing heat of summer, another push of a button cools the place as much as you please. I’ve heard horror stories of people blowing tons of money installing such systems only to find that they don’t heat or cool well enough. Well, Paul installs *powerful* systems that actually do the job!
Given that all the ducting had to be done from scratch, Paul did an astonishingly neat job. The ducting is so well hidden, and the vents so tidily installed, that our friends can’t believe the house wasn’t *built* with the system already installed.
Paul, if you read this, THANK YOU! Hope this brings you even more happy customers.
Best,
Tristan
