View all reviewson Google · 42+ reviewsNas was terrific and the work was top notch. I have a new kitchen tap, the drains work properly and I have plenty of hot water thanks to the newly installed hot water tank. Came next day to fix the tap and drains and was three days early for the hot water tank.
We recently contacted Captain Plumber with some plumbing issues we were experiencing. From replacing faucets, to a main waterline repair, Nassim has been a blessing. The service we received was outstanding. Nas is extremely knowledgeable.
I highly recommend Captain Plumber for any of your plumbing needs. He went over and above what was a bit of a challenging job on my mobile home. His quote was very fair, and he stuck to it exactly.
Nas is amazing at what he does and has now gotten us out of 2 big issues around the house. We recommend his services to anyone and he will always be our first call when we need help.
I called Captain Plumber as my sink was blocking up. Nassim came out quickly. He was friendly, efficient and gave me tips to prevent this from happening again in the future. Very happy with the service and very reasonable pricing!
Came over at 3am to help me with a clogged sink. He fixed the problem instantly and even cleaned up the mess in the sink. Incredible, quick and easy. If I ever need a plumber again I will definitely be this company.
