Century Home Services (Licensed, Bonded, and Insured) has been incredible to work with. Mark and his team helped me with a full crawl space restoration and replaced old piping under the kitchen, as well as the shower and sink lines. The crew worked quickly, efficiently, and with great attention to detail. Mark is extremely knowledgeable and was flexible every time I asked for an adjustment or had a question. He's perceptive, practical, and always chooses the solution that makes the most sense for the home. It's rare to find a contractor who combines skill, honesty, and responsiveness the way he does. I am very grateful for their services. His team was amazing from start to finish. I've already referred Century Home Services to my coworkers, and they absolutely have my future business. Highly recommended for anyone needing crawl space, plumbing, or home repairs for the work done right!!! read more

These guys may be competent plumbers - I'll never find out - but they are awful communicators. I reached out via Yelp for a leaky bathroom faucet. The guy I spoke to quoted me a reasonable-sounding price for a faucet replacement, so I went ahead and booked for the next day. I told him that I'd ordered a faucet from Amazon to be delivered by 8 AM, so they should maybe come in the afternoon. He said "No problem, we won't get there until 9 or 9:30 AM anyway." Next day, 9:30 AM, I message asking for an ETA. The response is "oh, we were waiting for confirmation that the faucet was delivered." That's interesting, because they never said they needed confirmation, but fine - I'll give it to you now. At 11:30 AM, I get a text saying "I should be there within the hour." At 12:55, I respond asking for an ETA, and get told that they were waiting for confirmation AGAIN, and that because they didn't get it they cannot schedule me for today, with a long message about "driving all the way to the city." I understand wanting confirmation - it would be pretty annoying to travel for a job, only to be sent back because the customer isn't available. But I wasn't asked for confirmation once by either employee who spoke to me, and every other plumber I've ever hired has not required confirmation, either. More importantly, I don't appreciate being spoken to as if it's my fault that I didn't magically understand that they needed something that was never once requested. (And don't get me started about "all the way to the city" - if jobs in a given location are too inconvenient, don't bid for them.) A few minutes ago, I booked with a competitor who offers same-day service, confirmed my availability while I was on the phone with them, and said THEY will send ME a confirmation when they're en route. What a breath of fresh air! read more

Mark and his crew at Century Home Service saved the day for me again. They've been my go-to guys for a few years now since my old house has what seems like a plumbing emergency at least once a year. They've been on the spot right away every time I call with a price that is always lower than I expected to pay. 6 stars! read more

Mark from Century Home Services did an awesome job. He was professional, knowledgeable, and made the whole process easy. Highly recommend!

Mark was very responsive from calling, texting and following up for a quote I needed including visiting the location for the yard job needed. He is very easy talk to, knowledgable and provides a few options for getting the job done. I appreciate his patience and follow even after the initial contact. read more

Mark and the crew did an amazing job. They replaced my entire sewer line which was old and filled with roots, part of the kitchen laundry line is rusted and leaking. So happy now knowing that I don't have to keep worrying about backing up anymore. Thank you guys read more

Fast response, worked around my schedule, and were thorough both when inspecting/giving us a quote and executing the actual work. Our leak is fixed and the replaced tile looks great. read more

Mark was prompt in his communications. He gave me an honest no fuss initial quote for a simple toilet job. Scheduling with him was a breeze. He even called me proactively because my Yelp app didn't send me notifications. On the day of the appointment, Mark and Gregory showed up promptly. They first checked our sewage outside of the house to make sure the sewage pipe was working, they then went into the crawl space to check the pipes. Mark pointed out a few things to watch out for. He worked on the toilet and quickly found out the issue. We ended having to get a new toilet. Mark and Gregory even went to Home Depot to get a new toilet and installed it for me. The whole process was thorough and effective. He charged reasonably for the wonderful workmanship. 10 stars if I could help it. Will definitely hire again!! read more

Worked with Mark and Gregory on restoring my sewer lateral by removing roots, scaling, and hydro flushing my sewet lateral.

Mark's plumber came within the expected time window, was neat, and fast. We needed a new wax ring and Century Home Services took care of it, no problem. For this service, I check with four other plumbers and Mark and this team were by far the least expensive. I would use Century Home Services again! read more

I had a sewage pipe leak in the crawl space of my basement. Mark was one of four quotes that I got from some local plumbers. He was super friendly and explained exactly what needed to be done for the job. The other guys said they had to break through the bathroom wall and some even quoted me over twice what he quoted. As soon as I decided to go with Capri, I texted Mark and he responded right away. He was able to get me an appointment the very next day! Edwin was the technician and he was very fast and efficient. Anyway, I'm very happy with the job and glad to know that I have a reliable plumber for any future issues or projects. I'll be referring Mark to anyone I know who needs a reliable plumber with excellent rates. read more

Fast response to my inquiry. 2 super friendly techs came out, fixed 2 leak and a clog. Unfortunately, they had to replace my garbage disposal as the faulty gasket was not available. Very reasonable price too. read more

My toilet wouldn't flush since the handle was broken. Reached out to them around 3 PM and by 6 PM. Everything was already fixed. Mark was nice enough to also say that this is something that I could get done on my own pretty easily, but I really wanted somebody professional to work on it and I appreciated the honest advice. You could tell he's a really straightforward and honest person. Five star experience will definitely use again. read more

My prv make a scary, loud turbine noise whenever the water run in the house. I contacted many difference plumber in both yelp and Facebook.

It's Saturday and these guys still work to help people out !! They come within 2 hours I made the appointment, own the problem and take care of it within an hour. read more

They responded to my inquiry immediately on a Thursday night after 8 o'clock I had an appointment made on Saturday, which was when I was available they showed up on time. They were very polite knew exactly what they were doing. Got the job done quickly and very reasonably priced. I cannot recommend them enough. read more

Mark was very responsive to my initial inquiry. He called me right away to set up an appointment later the same day. The job he was on ran long so he couldn't make it out, but he kept me informed and messaged me first thing the next day and arrived within 30 minutes. About 45 minutes later, the problem was fixed for a reasonable price. Great experience - I'd recommend Century Home to anyone in need of plumbing services. read more

We were referred to Mark by another property management company, and we truly can't express enough gratitude for that introduction. Adding Mark and his team to our vendor network has been an excellent decision. This past winter, during the heavy rains that flooded Northern California, we experienced an unusually high volume of emergency calls. Mark and his team went above and beyond every step of the way. Not a single repair was left pending or unattended. They worked tirelessly--day and night, one property at a time--always with a positive attitude and outstanding workmanship. Every job was done right the first time, with zero callbacks, which speaks volumes about their professionalism and attention to detail. Our team is beyond grateful to have found such a reliable small business that truly takes pride in their work and is always there when you need them most. We look forward to continuing to work with Mark and his team for many years to come. Highly recommend! read more

Mark came on a Sunday to help us fix our water thumping noise issue. He's an expert at diagnosing problems. He narrowed down to the kitchen faucet that had a flexible hose inside that expanded and contracted when we turned on off the valve. He offered a range of options and tried the least expensive option to see if it addressed our issue. He didn't push did the most expensive option. We appreciate mark's professionalism. We are very happy and would recommend him to our friends. read more

The day after New Year's, my stepmom had an issue with her pipes backing up. Couldn't use the restroom or wash dishes, as it affected multiple locations. I decided to take measures into my own hands to help her and my family get the house "right" again. It's rough when the holiday season hits and you need professional help, I hoped for the best. I used the Yelp feature to post my job listing to multiple companies, but Capri reached out to me first saying that they could come same day. We coordinated a time and the details with Mark and he drove up from San Jose to fix the situation. We were very pleased with the same day service, they were able to get the pipes cleared and everything back to normal. Very happy with the service that they provided, but Mark and his coworker were just really cool people overall. read more

Mark responded within minutes of my yelp project posting and was able to send someone out the same day. The angle stop on the toilet was heavily corroded. They were able to expertly problem solve and replace the angle stop. Excellent communication and quality of work for a fair price! read more

I received a call back just minutes after submitting my request for services on yelp. After sending some photos of the cabinet between our iPhones a plan was made to come out. Mark arrived Sunday morning to remediate the mold situation and replace the affected parts. The job was done less than 24 hours since I had made first contact. That was quite a commitment to come out to Santa Cruz from San Jose. I'm hiring Mark and team to come back and complete some aesthetic upgrades to my kitchen next. A+++++! Also: Capri is willing to take modern payments such as Venmo and Zelle™. read more

Mark and Ray were phenomenal. They gave me a quote on the spot. Delivered the work in two days. other companies were not able to get me in before and they are the best in the Bay Area. read more

Mark responded within 5 minutes of my search on yelp, and was very easy to schedule an appointment for our slow bathroom drains. Very communicative, on-time day of service, and professional. Took care of the sink and bathtub drains quickly and neatly. Best priced on the 4 other quotes received as well. He even followed up a month later to make sure everything was still working well. Excellent experience all around. read more

Responded very quickly. Was great on the phone. We set an appointment at 11am. At 11:40 no one showed, called or texted. When I reached out, they said they're running late, but will be there by 2:45. At 3:10, I again reached out , Mark never answered my text or phone calls... and was then completely ghosted. (They could have called, apologized and rescheduled). All in all I lost several days awaiting the appointment, then an entire day waiting at home for nothing. They may do good work (when they show), but my experience was very different then what the Yelp reviews depicted. From a service standpoint, they need much improvement. read more

I needed help replacing the float in my toilet and Mark was very helpful. He tried to first walk me through the process over the phone to save a visit from a technician. Unfortunately I was not able to do this on my own. He sent over a technician promptly and was able to repair my toilet quickly. I highly recommend Century Home Services for your plumbing needs. read more

Mark and his team are one of those rare companies you find that you want to maintain long term relationships with. He's honest, straightforward about costs and doesn't try to upsell you like other contractors I've worked with in the past. He cares about his customers and maintains good communication. If his workers spots issues during their work that doesn't require tearing down walls, they will go ahead and fix it with little to no added cost. I've hired Mark twice already on two separate projects, and the work he does is amazing. In the last task, I hired him to fix water damage in the restroom and replace the shower. Not only did he fix the water damage in the bathroom and replaced the shower, he also helped advised on how I could save on my other flooring project that was ongoing. With a small cost for materials, his team fixed some of the subfloor issues and ended up saving $3500 in costs for the flooring project. In addition, Mark also fixed all leaks that were spotted in the rest of the house while his guy was in the house crawl space making repairs. Mark runs an amazing company and I would highly recommend it. Him and his team are really good at what they do. read more

I hired Century Home Services to look into a leaky garbage disposal issue in our kitchen. Mark was great to talk to, clearly explained what the issue could've been, and gave me a reasonable quote. There was a smidgen of a phone tag issue, which was entirely Yelp's fault, as some of Mark's messages were forwarded to my phone and others were not. Mark rescued the situation by being very quick to answer the phone (unlike many other contractors!) and flexible with his scheduling. Even with that little hiccup, Mark and Gregory showed up the next day and fixed the garbage disposal quickly and professionally, with no mess and no fuss. This was a relatively small issue that could've become a big problem, and I'm glad I hired Century when I did. If we have a plumbing project again, I'll be calling Mark, and you should too. read more

They were able to stop by and assist immediately and even guided me through a way to fix one issue myself without getting charged. Super knowledgeable and helpful. Highly recommend!! read more

Mark and team were life savers. My kitchen drain was leaking and they came out right away to help us address it. Things I really liked about them were: 1. Prompt - they were the first to call me when I had an issue 2. Friendly - they were nice to me and my dad throughout the whole visit 3. Pricing is a lot less than their competitors. More people should be using these guys. If I needed anything in the future, Mark would be the first person I called read more

Mark and his associate, Brian, absolutely saved us last Friday after an "emergency" plumber left us in the lurch. Long story short, we had a clogged and perpetually-running toilet, which meant that the bowl would fill up and risk overflowing, so once an hour, all night long, I set an alarm and went to go manually empty the toilet with a bucket. By 645am, on 45min of sleep, I was DONE. I sent out a desperate message on Yelp. Mark replied in 10min. By 7am, we had a plan. Allowing for travel time and parts acquisition (better to get stuff in advance and show up slightly later than show up earlier, only to have to go back out for a part), they showed up at 9am, and our "little toilet problem" had revealed itself to be a "big clog problem", with our tub backing up, and water leaking from the living room ceiling downstairs AND the garage ceiling. But they fixed it all! Toilet valve was fixed, so it no longer perpetually runs, the clog has been eliminated, and the leaks stopped. A problem like this is par for the course with a plumber. Having said that, there are two distinct points I should make to really highlight why Capri Engineering is special: 1. Mark explained everything to me, step by step, clearly and professionally--not just what the problem was and how it would be fixed, but he also taught me some basic plumbing preventative measures, WITHOUT patronizing me. As a woman, this is actually really important. 2. Capri isn't just plumbing, they do it ALL. Our ceiling is, miraculously, generally ok, but if it wasn't, they'd be able to come back and repair it just as easily as the plumbing. Think of Capri Engineering as a general contractor--i.e., someone who handles plumbing AND electrical AND construnction--who happens to respond to emergency calls. Now, think of how many companies you know who actually do that. You usually get one or the other, but not both, unless they're limited to one kind of service. That's what makes Capri so special: they're a one-stop shop that ACTUALLY gets the job done. ALL the jobs, in fact. read more

Great service, they were easy to communicate with, showed up on time, and quickly found the source of the leak. Very professional and respectful of my home. Highly recommend their service la! read more

Thorough spent the time to do the job right. thank you Mark and your team Stark Century Home Services

We needed a city cleanout for was access for a pipe issue. We wanted someone who deals with excavation and permits so we called Capri. They have a fast response, great detail on information, and provided a quick and detailed estimate. Also they are very Friendly and answered all of our questions. read more

I was quoted $450 to scope my sewer lateral. Was supposed to arrive at 9am, no show. I called to ask for status (they didnt call me to check on the address), they transposed the address numbers and went to the wrong address. "Mark" said they'd arrive in a few hours, that he had a tech in Daly City. At 3pm I messaged asking for an eta and Mark said they could come between 430-500pm though he could come the next day at 8am himself, thay he preferred to work in the light (fyi, its still light at 5pm). I said 9am would be better and that was the plan. A half hour later, because I felt uneasy about what had transpired, I asked him to confirm the price and he messaged back saying he would discount me $100 for the inconvenience and would charge $400. Sorry Mark, $450 minus $100 is not $400. At that point, I canceled them completely. Completely unprofessional, I wouldn't have them scope my dog house. Good riddance. read more

I'm not sure why but I was messaging with them to fix a leaky faucet and then they just stopped responding and didn't answer any messages. I hope they are ok but I don't know why they dropped me. read more

I knew I had a toilet leak but I wasn't sure what part needed to be changed so I looked up a few places. Mark was the only person that was able to come by the same day. He asked me what the issue was and I told him I hear a slow leak. I bought a whole toilet kit from Home Depot thinking I could just change it out but I'm not the handiest person. I told him I had the parts and he told me oh okay well it's pretty easy to change. I think it's the flush valve that needs to be changed out. He was so patient and helped walk me through the steps staying on the phone. I couldn't get a piece off so he just told me what to do after and said to call back if I needed anymore help. Long story short I was self doubting myself and so I texted him to just come fix it. He called and said no you got this. You did the hardest part. I put everything back and turned on the water woohoo I heard no more slow leak. thank you Mark for all your help and believing in me. I would totally recommend Century Home Services! I'm keeping his number in case of any other plumbing issues. read more

I had the best experience with Capri Engineering. I had an emergency with a leaking toilet and needed a replacement asap, and Mark responded very quickly, came within a few hours with a new toilet and installed it quickly, I was saved! Not to mention their price is very reasonable. I'm so glad I found them, I will definitely be using their services again in the future! Thanks Mark! read more

Mark is very nice, professional and efficient! He replaced our water pressure adjuster very well. Thanks Mark for his service!
