Really great visit. Shawn was knowledgeable, kind, respectful, going through every step of my leak and its repair with me. I love when people repairing my home leave me more knowledgeable about my home than when they arrived, especially when it comes to preventing future problems. Shawn did all of the above in addition to fixing the leak relatively quickly, and for an affordable price. That's great because repairing the ceiling from the water damage is going to hurt badly enough. Thanks, Shawn and Chen Plumbing!

Chase & colleague came for the first problem, but 2 days later he came back when we realized it wasn’t fully resolved and finished the job. Liked that we had consistency in the plumber; no need to re-explain everything. When a new unrelated issue arose the next day, Chase was back. He and his workmate spent the day fixing a system problem, and gave us a referral for the restoration that would be required. Chase was a good communicator. I can’t really speak to Chen’s pricing question: all but the first problem (clogged sink) needed immediate help, so we didn’t call around for price quotes.

Chen Plumbing customer service was very professional. Kept me updated on appointments. Chase and crew were very professional. Kept me updated throughout entire process. Able to locate and fix a main water line issue that 2 other plumbers would not address. Entire process was quick and efficient. I will use them again!!!

We had an apparently hard to fit bathtub pipe and multiple plumber visits had us buying several different replacement tub spouts, none of which would work. Finally, Tim Chen came out and fixed it with the original hardware. We can finally shower and can return the other three items for a refund! Woo hoo! Thanks, Tim

Replaced 50 gallon water heater with a 75 gallon gas water heater. Upsized vent to 4”. Installed a flood stop. Set expansion tank to 80 psi. Tested to ensure proper function and a leak free install.
Call for water leak in ceiling of first floor bathroom. Arrived and met with Ms. Janes. She showed me the water dripping from the ceiling. I inspected the upstairs bathroom and found water inside the vanity, and a drip hanging on to the elbow of half inch cpvc. When testing, I found a hairline crack along the elbow. Pressure regulating valve only about a year old. Water heater also just over a year. Pressure not tested as water was off, but I believe prv is functioning fine due to young age. Cut away broken section of cpvc. Installed new ball valve and pressurized system. No leaks or drips found. I also discussed the benefits of our maintenance membership program. I have also provided two estimates, one for a whole house water filtration system, and another for a Moen Flo automatic leak detection device. I have left contact information for reliable restoration, and recommend they be contacted to assess water damage to home.
For this customer, they call us out for a running toilets, and I took a look at the running toilet. It was a Kohler toilet, which was the color toilets with the flush tower. The red seal head, corroded, and it needed to be replaced with that mind I recommended to replace the supply line to fill valve and the flush seal for a proper permanent fixed along with that I recommended to replace the pressure reducing valve because the water pressure red at 100 psi that is not the only reason we replaced it. The pressure reducing valve is also leaking from one of the check valves on the bottom of the unit so we replaced it with a new ball valve and a new pressure reducing valve. No leaks after installation. Also noticed the customer had a brand new kitchen faucet that they want to install and one of their main complaints that it constantly drips so I also offered to replace that faucet once fully installed. There are no leaks on the toilet, the pressure reducing valve and or the faucet the cust

Client called us out today due to their main water service line leaking beneath the driveway. It would be a large mess to reroute it around the side of the house and in to where it’s tied in. Therefore, it will be best to cut the concrete driveway for a new trench for the new water line. Waived service fee. Water pressure is at 70 psi with a large leak on the line outside.
Customer wanted to install customer provided faucet. After install checked for leaks and proper function. Explained faucet function being really close to window ledge. Customer is okay with installation
Call for leaks under kitchen sink. Arrived and met with Ms. Dixie. She showed me the leaks under the sink. I performed a thorough evaluation of the plumbing system he found the following: Kitchen faucet leaking form cartridge housing, and from sprayer housing. Disposal internally ruptured and leaking. Pressure on home is almost 80psi. Prv appears to be original to the home. The main waterline is old galvanized pipe, with transition to copper inside crawlspace. Water heater in very bad condition, full of sediment and more than 15 years old. Faucet in back bathroom also starting to leak from handle. This is moen, which has lifetime warranty. Replaced disposal with new disposal, and wired in accordance with exisiting electrical set up. Main electrical panel is a very old style fuse panel and I strongly encourage getting an electrician to assess the site and provide an estimate to update the panel. Initially agreed to repair faucet. However, once purchasing parts we found that the cos
Came out to this customers house to diagnose a dripping faucet the customer ordered a new shower body valve from Amazon to be installed in one of the showers. We are happy to install customer supplied parts, but I also gave him an estimate if we were to supply a moment and or a delta for it to be installed The customer just for right now wanted an estimate on getting it replaced either. He supplying it or if we supply, it provided both estimates check the water pressure to see if it had any factor in it as well. This time it does not look like it has any factor to it being related in terms of water pressure at this time. It is just an estimate no further action is taken.
Came out to assess a couple plumbing issues In the home. An old cast iron drain pipe backed up and flooded out the laundry room causing some damage. Also, the nat gas water heater has failed and is leaking after being flushed by another person, tank is 8 yrs old and had never been flushed before then. Gave estimates to address all issues we found in the home. Client is going to look over our estimate and let us know tomorrow. Waived service fee.
Those customer has a leak coming from what looks to be the tub in one of the bathrooms upstairs how ever in order to actually determine that is the cause I recommend opening up the ceiling to further investigate where the leak is coming from at this time the customer declined and said they just want to re-caulk the tub to see if that fixes it so there is no fix as of right now in addition to that the pressure reducing valve needs to be replaced at some point the pressure is at 80 psi I left a quote for that at this time. No work will be performed
Cusomter wanted quote on water heater. Will call back in the morning with decision.
Customer had an electric tankless that was not getting the water up to the adequate temperature. Went through the manual and checked everything the book said for possible issues. Could not restore proper service to the unit. Customer elected to just replace it with a tank. Purchased material and installed new 40 gallon electric tank. Tied back into existing plumbing. Ran new t&p through the crawlspace and out of the side of the home. Tested to ensure a leak free installation. Customer is going to have an electrician come out to remove the wiring from the old unit and run power to the new water heater. We bled all the air out of the tank so it will be ready to power on as soon as the electrical is connected. No further issue at this time.
For this customer, they are selling their residence and the realtor recommended for them to replace the water heater with a tankless or tank water heater. However, the tankless wouldn’t be a great option considering it. It is a fully electric house so I recommended to go tank for tank rather than trying to do an electric tankless Without a mind. Gave an estimate for tank with the grant for pump either replaced or not replaced or just reinstalled with that in mind it is on a second floor so I would have to charge an additional time to get it installed and bring everything up to code at this time. The homeowner will speak with their spouse in order to see when they would like to get it done at this time is estimate only.
Came out today to hook up the ice maker machine properly in the water cooled configuration instead of air cooled. We had to order the specialty water pressure regulator for the pump on the machine and also had to order the condensate neutralizer for the condensation line on the machine ran to the drain. Today, we added the water and condensate lines and ran them accordingly to get the machine operational for today. With not having the water pressure regulator, I just opened the water shutoff about halfway to cut back the water pressure. I also ran the condensate drain in 1/2” cpvc to the floor drain and added a vent on top so it would drain properly. Ice machine seems to be up and running for now. Ordered parts will be available in the morning for me to pick up then I can come install them. We will collect the total today, and tomorrow will not collect anything more.
Customer had section of cast-iron in basement showing small leaks from underneath pipe. In order to fix issue replaced approximately 12 feet of cast-iron with 4 inch PVC. Added Test tee for easier access to drain system after drain work was installed re-strapped piping for better security and ran water to test for leaks and proper drainage function.
