Don't trust your property to a less qualified team. Contact our highly trained experts for quality service.

"I had an awful experience with Cupertino Plumbing. The plumber showed up, barely stayed for 15 seconds, and immediately started swearing at me, saying he didn?t care about the job. Completely unprofessional and disrespectful. If this is how they treat customers, I would never recommend them to anyone."

We pride our company on reliability, great communication, integrity, and quality work. We are experts in our trade! We will always do our best to keep you as educated as we can on your particular task or project. We look forward to earning your business! Call us anytime! I am a plumber I know how to fix any plumbing line. I install gas or water lines. I install sewer main or repair them I install toilets anywhere you want them

"Gabriel charged us ridiculous prices for simple tasks ($75 for replacing a valve faucet in the backyard and $200 for replacing an older bathtub drain with one that we bought) on top of the $300 (150/hour labor) that he took just to show up and diagnose a potential leak. He initially said that the $200 included work on a second drain that was very corroded and stuck and promise that he will come again since he was missing a tool but when he show up he asked for an additional $300 at which point we almost let him do it but he requested the money beforehand since he was worried (rightfully) that if he breaks the tub we will not be paying him. At which point we decided to not let him do the job since he does not put his money on his skill. We managed to fix the second drain with $20 given to another plumber who came in for an unrelated issue."

FAQs for water heater repair or service projects in San Jose, CA

Warning signs include fluctuating water temperatures, a pilot light that repeatedly goes out, unusual noises from the tank, or complete heating failure. You might also detect a rotten egg smell, indicating a potential gas leak, or notice water that never reaches the proper temperature. If your water heater is over eight years old and displaying these symptoms, the gas valve is a likely culprit. Professional inspection is recommended, especially if gas odors are present.

Water heater gas valves are not universally interchangeable. Each valve must match your specific water heater's make, model, and specifications. Important compatibility factors include gas type (natural gas vs. propane), BTU rating, connection types, and physical dimensions. Using an incorrect valve can result in poor performance, premature failure, or dangerous gas leaks. Always consult your water heater's documentation or a professional plumber to identify the appropriate replacement valve for your unit.
