Can't say enough good things about the service that Trieu provided us with today. He expertly repaired/replaced our faucet parts and solved the long-standing issue we had with a drip. We especially appreciated the fact that Trieu was willing to answer questions, to help educate us about the situation. In spite of the challenges and the job taking longer than originally anticipated, he was always pleasant and polite. And his fee was very reasonable. What more could we ask for? read more

If other plumbers cannot fix it, Trieu CAN! I have had this kitchen drain clog issue for 5 days, consulted ~10 plumbers majority told me they cannot do it, and a few gave me ~$1500 estimate. My kitchen is on second floor and the drain cleanout is located in the basement. Snake did not work at all because it was all grease clogging. All the previous plumbers consulted either does not have hydo jetting therefore cannot do the work, or cannot do hydo jetting from the basement (will cause a lot mess in the kitchen therefore they claimed a very high price). Trieu is very experienced in solving clogging issue for multi story townhouse. He's got so many advanced tools and he was able to do hydro jetting from basement. The special nozzle he used for this jetting did not cause any mess in the kitchen. The overall process only took 1 hour. Trieu really delivered his work with quality and speed. Also Trieu charged a very reasonable price. I will definitely recommend Trieu to everyone that needs plumbing service! read more

Look no further. This guy will help you out even when he's off, come early in the morning when you have an emergency, and give you great advice. He had tools that could read where pipes were 3 feet deep and recommend how to take action. We've called him three separate times (for a different problem, different pipe) and each time he's had to problem solve and has figured it out. His prices are fair, he's energetic, and incredibly nice! Thank you, Trieu! read more

Job done beyond my expectations. They are very talented professionals with top notch equipments. Not only that they are friendly and fun to talk to. Highly recommended!!! read more

Drain Assist - Plumbing Near Me - San Jose, California

All I can say is Trieu went above and beyond helping me fix a leaking kitchen sink. He explained exactly everything that needed to be done and backed up his work. His ability to respond and come fix my issue within the hour was greatly appreciated. Trieu wore a mask the entire time and cleaned up his work area after he left. I already have a few more projects that I want to line up with him and I can recommend him with the upmost confidence. He's your guy for any plumbing needs! read more

I just had to write another review for Trieu's work done at my parent's place on new years eve. Not sure why sewage problems always happen to me near the holidays this year, but the last time Trieu came out for my place was only the day before Thanksgiving (see my previous review). My parents place is very old (1907) and the plumbing was original and weird due to additions. My dad tried to snake it himself and finally declared defeat around 3pm. I called Trieu and was so happy he had time that day to come take a look. His estimate was 2 hours, but he was over in 1. I met him at my parents' place just in case of a language barrier. Trieu ended up hydro jetting from the roof vent and after the clog was cleared, sent a cam down to see what the problem was, all with my dad on the roof with him, explaining everything patiently to my dad who speaks minimal english. Trieu is very curious and wanted to get down to the root of the problem. He was not satisfied with the cam images showing a dip in one of the sections. He used his detector to figure out where the pipes were, went down to the crawlspace (with my dad) to locate more of the old house's strange piping. While he was down there, they found a cracked pipe that was leaking and provided the tools for my dad to fix it at no extra charge. All in all, Trieu went over and beyond for the service that he charged us for, which was just for hydro-jetting. I have been telling my friends about him and would not hesitate to call him again in the future. read more

Thank you so much!! Drain Assist did an excellent job unclogging a bathroom toilet yesterday that I share with another tenant at my place. Beforehand, I tried three different plungers with no success (I usually do unclog a backed up toilet myself.) It was just one of those days with bad juju, that I had to miss work after trying home remedies and watching multiple YouTube videos; At this point I said okay, I'll pay a fair price for anyone nearby who can help me on this. Thankfully Trieu was nearby in the East side of SJ, only a mile away and did the job swiftly using his snake/auger. I was pleased with the work and appreciated his clarification on what backs up toilet pipes I'd recommend Drain Assist - this service doesn't pressure you to high estimates unlike other 'competing' plumbing services in my opinion. Should I need another job done at home, I'll be looking forward to calling up Trieu :) read more

Wednesday my kitchen sink was gurgling. Trieu was here in April 2022 so I wanted the clog fixed before the holidays. We made an appointment for today. Fortunately my drain wasn't clogged. Trieu explained and gave me some preventive tips. I am very grateful for Trieu!! read more

If I had called anyone else this would have been a huge ordeal. TL;DR my sink is a stupid design and there is no clean-out... because my house is also a stupid design. Drain Assist wasn't daunted by the stupidity of my house and got my super clogged sink working again for way less money than the multiple plumbers that probably would have had to come out. The solution was to hydro-jet my pipe from the roof vent on my 2 story house. I called at 7pm last night and Trieu was here at 10am the next day. Clog left our pipes at 12pm and we all cheered. If you've got a clogged sink in the Bay Area, this is the only guy you need to call! Thank you, Trieu! read more

Easy to talk to. Great communication skills. I was stressing out because of a previous tree root problem. Trieu reassured me that it wasn't the tree root but a simple toilet valve and old flapper problem. He walked me through his food coloring test process and answered all sorts of questions I had about plumbing. A really great guy and builds his clientele with honesty and trust. I will have him back to work at my dad's house very soon. read more

My kitchen sink got clogged yesterday and I tried to unclog it as I did many times before but it didn't work this time. My wife called "Drain Assist" and Trieu showed up in 20' later. Trieu look at everything and tried to find out where it got clogged. He tried the easy way first by using his professional air gun to push down the clog from the sink. but it didn't work. He checked clean out and couldn't find the clog there and he suspected that the clog is in the horizontal pipe that connects the P-trap and the big vertical pipe in the wall. He is right. As he un-assembled the kitchen pipe connectors and don't see much clog in the P-trap but the horizontal pipe totally blocked the water flow w/ grease/food traps over the years. He use big snake tool to pull/push to clean the inside of the pipe. I could see how tough the clog was, but he has all the professional tool to do the job. He also ran the hot water to clean the grease inside the pipe to make sure it clean well. After that, he assembled all plumbing back then tested the water flow and checked for any leaks. Trieu works w/ his heart and tries to bring the best outcome for his customer. You can't be wrong to call him to help when in need at your house or your business. I will call him again if I need help in the future. Drain Assist is AAA+++ service w/ affordable price. read more

Excellent service, on time and reasonable and quick . Will. Contact this provider again on any plumbing issues read more

We have pluming problem at our place and we had fixed, called many people but it was not able to fix it well. I recently called Trieu and he went to our house and fix it. We could not happier because he did a great job, save us money to replace it in the future. If i have to refer, he is the one! I love how he can come within an hour to help. read more

If there have 10 stars, I will give him 10 here. He came and spend over 30mins to check where my ceiling was leaking on the 1st floor from the 2nd floor. Excepting to cut a few holes to check where is leaking place on the ceiling on the 1st floor, he has a better suggestion to fix the toilets waxing instant. And then wait for a few days to see if it is continuing leaking water on the ceiling. However, for the safe side, I hope he could cut the ceiling and check whether have any mold inside of the ceiling where the leaking water place is located on top of the pendant light. and whether the pendant light's electrical wire is ruined or not which may cause a fire. His quote is very cost-effective. read more

I would definitely recommend Trieu for your plumbing needs. I got my toilet replaced and he did a very good job. He wasn't the lowest quote I got but went with him because of the Yelp Recommendations and I wasn't disappointed. He was extremely prompt with his responses, on time and knowledgeable. He tested the work he did thoroughly. Overall was a really good experience and would surely go back to him for my plumbing needs read more

Trieu helped me big time with my water hammer problem, he was timely, efficient and honest. Will definitely work with him again.

We requested a quote. We got a quick response. The tech came thru and conducted their job in an amazing time frame and provided great tips. We would definitely recommend to anyone. Trieu is great read more

My run-off drain was backing up this past rain and Drain Assist came out and was able to clear a buckets worth of rocks and silt out of it. It's flowing great now. read more

Trieu is awesome! We had a clogged sewer, trieu came out diagnosed the problem, explained what was happening. He was able to resolve quickly and also explained everything very clearly and was very informative and helpful. Definitely one of the best experiences, would instantly recommend and use him for other work. read more

Can't recommend Drain Assist enough. Trieu was polite, knowledgeable, promptly came to help, charged a fair rate, and kept his mask on his mouth+nose the whole time. Best of all he really cared about making sure the job was done well. He even stayed longer to try a few more things to get the drain from 80% to 100%. Sadly our pipes are old so 80% is usually the best anyone gets it. In my experience when you find someone who goes the extra mile because they care about doing their job well, you stick with them! That's our plan and I hope it's yours too! read more

Trieu was extremely professional, transparent, and helpful when I needed to get roots cleared out of my old pipes. Literally, this is who other plumbers call when they need an assist. After another plumber was hesitant to clear my root intrusion bc of my old pipes, he recommended Trieu bc of the specialized equipment Trieu has that could clear my root damage with less risk to damaging my old, iron pipes. Trieu came out and had the roots cleared quickly but spent an extra hour at least running his camera through my pipes and removing any other debris he found. I'd look no further if you're dealing with old piping that needs extra care. read more

Trieu was friendly, responsive, quick and professional. He replaced our leaking garbage disposal. While at it, I picked up a new kitchen faucet and he installed it at the same time. He was upfront about costs and it was a good experience overall. read more

Trieu was great. He replied quickly to my quote request and his prices are very fair. He was right on time and respectful of our home, even tho it's a chaotic mess these days. He fixed the leaky toilet and showed me what the issue was. He also showed me that the bathroom sink issues I assumed we had were, in fact, other issues. Since we rent, I have to contact the owners before making the suggested replacements on this over-30-year-old property, but I'll be booking Trieu for those repairs/installments. Thanks, Trieu! read more

Excellent service and highly, highly recommended. Our kitchen sink got clogged severely to the point that we could not resolve it on our own. Not only did Trieu come and swiftly fix the drain, he also did it so neatly. Unlike my other experiences with these drain assists, the place looked better than before Trieu arrived! We will be sure to keep his contact saved in our phone for further inevitable drain issues. read more

Worked with Drain Assist on two occasions at my 2-unit home: 1) emergency sewer clog and 2) replacement of cracked toilet in bathroom. On both occasions the service was done on-time, quickly, and effectively. I'd highly recommend Drain Assist and will use them again for these types of services as well as other plumbing needs. Note, I particularly loved the quick responses over text (during a pandemic and the holidays), that not only were re-assuring, but allowed effective coordination of schedules. Drain Assist showed up on time (even came in early per prior communication). The estimates for work to be done were clear, including options, and cost-effective recommendations. Really couldn't ask for anything more! read more

Excellent service. He came last minute to fix my clogged kitchen sink and he went over and beyond to make sure it was fixed. He was transparent with the price which was very affordable compared to other places I called. He also wore his mask and he also made sure to clean up afterwards. He also gave me a 6th month warranty! I would definitely call him back if I ever needed to. read more

Trieu helped unclog bathroom sinks at my home. He was very prompt and honest with the quotes and even gave suggestions on how I can cleanup clog myself in the future! Very upfront with any costs and did due diligence before giving any quote. He also gave great tips on how to maintain the plumbing system in the home and keep them from frequent clogs. Highly recommend his services, hard to find honest businesses like his. read more

Trieu was very informative, professional, friendly and very responsive when we reached out to him for help installing our under the sink filter system and connected that to our refrigerator. He talked us through the whole process and he knew what he was doing. Our system has been working great w/o any issue for a few months. read more

I needed to have a new kitchen faucet installed and my husband was all set to do it. But I was really happy with Trieu's previous work so I decided to call him instead. And I'm sure happy I did! The space under the sink was really tight and he also had to do some extra drilling and configuring. No way could my guy have done that. Lol. He was quick and efficient but still took the time to make sure the new faucet worked perfectly and that all that tubing fit well underneath (a problem we'd had before). I'll be calling him again, no doubt about it. He is professional, pleasant, efficient and reasonably priced. read more

Quick, thorough and reasonably priced. I had Trieu come to repair a toilet. He was able to provide a quote via message and performed only the necessary repairs and did them well. I would highly recommend Drain Assist. read more

Trieu was excellent and extremely fair with his prices. He was very responsive and when onsite he didn't try and up charge or up sell his service. He showed me what the problem was, and quickly fixed it. Hard to find an honest plumber these days, but I'm happy to say I found one now. I definitely recommend this company. read more

Had a service at 12/09. From reaching out to him to getting a service, it was so smooth and transparent. He offered to pick up the toilet at the nearest home depot and bring it home to install. I really appreciate his knowledge and experience. Had a good time working with him. I super recommended him. read more

I have nothing but only good things to say about Trieu. He rushed over and saved the day! My washer was leaking and flooded the house. Water was dripping from the second floor to the first floor. He found the source, cleared the pipes thoroughly and provided warranty for his service. He also gave me some useful advice to prevent future plumbing issues. That's what I call a professional plumber. Highly, highly recommend Trieu for his service! read more
