Manifold leak rebuilt

Had a tight manifold leak that required it to be rebuilt. Uncle Pat Plumbing returned my call and set up a time to meet the next day. The availability offered was very much appreciated. There was some leaks after the fix as it was being checked, but Pat was honest about what was happening and made sure it was done well and fixed before leaving. He quoted me one price for the first possible cause of the issue. But when it turned out to be the bigger fitting, he adjusted his price but id still say it was a good cost/value for the availability, fix, and communication he provided. Looking to doing more business with them in the future

Finished installation od Bradford White 50g NG water heater.

Everything!! My water heater started failing 2 days ago. I called Uncle Pat and texted him some photos. That next day he came back with a very fair quote. I interviewed other plumbers for same job. I called uncle Pat back and accepted. He came out the NEXT DAY. He and Joey did an excellent job of refitting old parts to the new heater. Very nice soldering, craftsmanship and they cleaned up the entire area. Its so NICE to have a contractor do what they say they'll do; do it, when they schedule it and at the price quoted. I'll definitely be calling Uncle Pat Plumbing back . GREAT JOB.

Our water heater broke down and we called Pat. Pat came over right away to check on it, picked up a new one and installed it fast for us. Very friendly and honest.

Ask the Community - Uncle Pat Plumbing

My pipes that run to an upstairs bathroom make a loud hammering noise when the water is turned on. Could this be from high pressure?

Yes but not necessarily. Do you hear it when you run both hot and cold? Do you have an expansion tank by your water heater?

We've used Quick Water Heater & Filtration Company twice now and have been very happy both times…read more Our first install was back in 2019 with Gregg and Jacob, and everything went smoothly. This time around, our Rheem water heater failed before reaching even 7 years, despite having a 12‑year warranty. Even though Quick is closed on weekends, Brandon texted me and set us up first thing Monday morning. Ben (sales) was extremely helpful, walked me through all the options, and made a genuine effort to get Rheem to honor the warranty. Unfortunately, Rheem couldn't provide a replacement and instead offered fair market compensation (still TBD). Not thrilled with Rheem, but Ben handled the situation professionally and kept me informed throughout. We ultimately went with a Bradford White, and Sammy installed it the same day. His work was excellent--professional, efficient, and spotless cleanup. The Bradford White + installation was very reasonable and very surprisingly comparable to my prior installation. Very impressed with Quick's responsiveness, professionalism, and ability to turn everything around in a single day. Highly recommend them.

He quickly figured out the issue, explained everything along the way, and got the job done in a timely manner. Water leaks are obviously stressful, so I'm extremely grateful for how easy Chase made the entire experience. It's such a relief when someone shows up, knows their stuff, and takes care of the problem the right way. Really appreciate his help today and would absolutely recommend Chase and Mastercraft Plumbers to anyone looking for a great plumber!

Subject: Unresolved property damage and failure to honor warranty…read more I am writing this review to share my experience with Mastercraft Plumbers Inc. regarding a project that resulted in irreparable damage to my bathtub. While the company performed the initial task of removing a corroded screw, their technician's negligence resulted in significant, irreparable damage to the bathtub. Despite a written warranty guaranteeing workmanship, the company refused to restore the tub to its original condition, instead proposing an inadequate "refinishing" remedy that did not meet professional standards. After months of attempting to reach a professional resolution, I was forced to pursue this matter in Small Claims Court. On June 8, 2026, the Superior Court of California ruled in my favor, confirming that the company failed to meet its obligations and awarding a judgment for the full cost of the necessary replacement. I am sharing this factual account to assist other consumers in their due diligence. I have attached the Court's Minute Order and photographs of the damage for transparency. I am posting this as an addendum to address the owner's response. I wish to clarify that the facts of this matter were adjudicated in the Superior Court of California (Case #25SC04822C). On June 8, 2026, the Court ruled in my favor and awarded a judgment for the costs of repair, rejecting the defendant's claims. My review is based on these documented findings, and I stand by the facts presented. I have attached the Court's Minute Order for transparency to allow future consumers to make informed decisions based on the official record.

Thankfully I caught it early or it could've been a huge disaster. After stabilizing everything by shutting off the water and gas, I came onto Yelp to look for highly rated companies with 24/7 service. I wasn't aware that plumbers don't sleep, the first company I called sent a technician out the same night. After I received the quote I uploaded it to an AI that told me that it was a good solution but significantly more expensive than I should be paying. I decided I would also call a highly rated company that specialized in water heaters, and the AI listed JG Water Heaters as well as a couple of others I left a message for JG and the owner called me back quickly. We spent about 15 minutes on the phone talking about the solution, the prices, the options, the risks, etc. His verbal quotes were significantly lower than the other company, and he could send a technician out first thing in the morning. The information that I uploaded to the AI resulted in a thumbs up and a couple clarifying questions, but seeing as though I was in the middle of a water emergency I wasn't going to go out and get the normal 4 to 5 quotes for work The technician arrived precisely on time the next morning, examined the entire situation and determined that I had two really good options. A plug-in place replacement 50 gallon tank, or to go tankless. The outlets, gas lines, vents, etc. were all perfect for tankless and they gave me a competitive quote. I decided I did not want to go through flooding again and decided to spend the extra money on the tankless system. Over the next 4 to 5 hours the technician worked diligently installing the system, and he wasn't even bothered by my occasional visits and questions. At one point the owner came out to drop off some equipment and I got to meet him in person. After the install was complete we went through the house to make sure everything was working properly, and the technician hauled away the old hot water heater and cleaned up after himself. My adult son took the first shower with the New system and said it was perfect. No issues at all, although I had to turn up the temperature a little bit to what we were used to. I highly recommend JG Water Heaters. Great people, super fast response, and what seems like a reasonable price. I'd be more confident if I got more quotes, but AI is pretty good at evaluating proposals and they said this was a good one. I have confidence that if anything goes wrong they would come out in a heartbeat to take care of it. Thanks JG Water Heaters for helping me avert a disaster and getting me a hot water system that will probably outlive me

JG made it the least painful process of replacing our burst traditional water heater ever (we have had this happen too many times) and finally they helped switch us to a tankless system.

He surveyed our system and made sure he took care of any other problems easily that we were not aware of in the same visit. Keep up the amazing work!
