History
Established in 2008.
Established in 2008. Tri Express Plumbing opened in San Diego in 2008, built on a simple idea: homeowners deserve a plumber who shows up, tells them the truth, and does the work right the first time. What began as a one-van operation has grown into a trusted family business that's completed more than 8,000 jobs across San Diego County. Along the way we made a deliberate choice to specialize rather than do a little of everything — focusing on water heaters, whole-home repiping, leak detection, and ADU/new-construction plumbing. That focus is also why we've spent 15+ years working alongside restoration companies and insurance carriers on water-damage and leak claims throughout the county. Same name, same license (
#926629), same owner since day one — no rebrands, no hand-offs. Family-owned business serving San Diego since 2008.
Meet the Business Owner: Kevin M.
Kevin — Owner. Kevin got his start in the plumbing trade in 2000 at A.O. Reed & Co., one of San Diego's largest and most established mechanical contractors, before founding Tri Express Plumbing in 2008. That's 26 years in the field — and he's still the one you're likely to meet on the job. Tri Express is a true family business: Kevin runs it alongside his wife and son, and that family standard shows in how every customer is treated. He built the company on transparent pricing, honest recommendations, and craftsmanship that holds up — the same values behind every water heater, repipe, and leak call today. When you call Tri Express, you're not reaching a call center or a rotating crew. You're reaching the people whose name is on the license.
