481 Plumb

Jake Smith of 481 Plumb is the real deal. He is very knowledgeable about his trade and he does excellent quality work. He has replaced temperature control valves on two showers, reset wobbly toilets, fixed assorted leaks and I plan to have him install a new garbage disposal for me next week with a new switch and reworked dishwasher air gaps. I work in insurance and am frequently asked for a plumbing referral. I feel confident recommending Jake!

It's been a few years since I've needed him--- but as soon as I called- Jake was at my home! This service is amazing. I woke up to no hot water and had an important meeting to attend. I called Jake to see if he could save the day so I could take a warm shower- and he was there within minutes. Friendly man- super professional. Call Jake- he's awesome!

I called Jake on a leaky faucet. Based on the pictures I sent to him, he was able to get the right parts and sent me accurate estimate. He also gave me instructions on how to shut off the water. When he came to the house, he fixed the problem quickly and tested thoroughly. Jake is not just professional and experienced, he also cared and responded to the call quickly. I would recommend him to friends.

I have used 481 plumbing 3 times over the past year and I have nothing but good things to say about this outfit. Their dispatcher has the perfect voice for emergencies. Haha, I know it sounds weird but I don't know how else to explain it. When I call and hear their voice it makes me feel calm and I know I am going to be taken care of. Their plumbing technicians are very professional and well kept, no big fat scurffy men with dirty overalls. Their prices are super competitive and they will even give you tips on how to fix the problem yourself if it is something simple and they don't feel like taking your money unfairly. In today's world it is near impossible to find a plumber you can trust but believe me, you can trust 481.

Jake Smith is good. I have been selling real estate in Del Mar and Solana Beach for 14 years and have met a lot of plumbers. He is busy so you may need to wait a few hours but he is worth it. Jake is honest and informative. Jake replaced my water heater two weeks ago. In addition to getting me the top brand for a fair price, he cleaned up some mistakes made by the folks who installed the last water heater 10 years ago.

I was impressed with Jake's promptness at returning my call and setting up an appointment. He was able to give an accurate price over the phone and showed up punctually. Jake was knowledgeable, quick, and efficient while at the same time telling me what I needed to know. The best part was he cleaned up after the work so my house was left in the same condition! I would recommend Jake to anyone in need!

We have finally found our new plumber! Jake was awesome! He was on time, professional, clean, knowledgeable, and made me feel comfortable. I highly recommend him! We are so grateful to have found him as our new plumber!

It's not very often that you find someone in any line of work that is passionate about what they do. Jake is not only enthusiastic about plumbing but wants to do the best job he can do. He's also smart and thoughtful in a profession where you normally find neither. It's an unbeatable combination.

Jake configured our kitchen plumbing after we remodeled so he started with an open canvass with a lot of pieces and parts. He went the extra mile to clean and lubricate my old parts so they would work as well as the new ones. He also took great care to make all the under sink connections to maximize the limited space we had. That's the kind of thoughtfulness I've never seem before from a plumber. He also went out of his way to try to track down a drain sleeve for the garbage disposal to match our new sink--something I consider way above and beyond the call of duty. Everything turned out great and I couldn't be happier with the work or the price.

Jake is now my plumber for life and I'm going out of my way to tell all my friends about him.

I own a rental home in San Diego and need a plumber I can trust. I used several until I met Jake with 481 Plumb. He is honest, courteous, clean and most important, he knows what he's doing. I feel completely comfortable allowing Jake into my home and letting him handle the problem. I no longer feel the need to be there or to spend money on a property manager. I highly recommend 481 Plump and its owner Jake.
