Recommended Customer Reviews

Travis and his crew did an excellent job fixing our water leak and remodeling our bathroom where the leak was. Always professional. Always on time.. Travis also helped with the designing and finishes for the remodel. We will Definitely be using Cal-Tec again. Highly recommend !!

Hands down the best contractor out there! Honest, Professional, Detailed, Hard working, Knowledgeable, Best Quality. He has all the qualities of a great contractor and person. We had a new home construction project, he was the best contractor on site. Did great, through work and kept the job clean in all aspects. Hired him to do additional projects on the home. If you want things done right look no further.

I signed up to just to write this review.
The first time I met Travis was some 15 years ago when he came to fix our shower control in our old house. I could see that he is very honest and very thorough. At that time he was working as a plumber but over the years, unknown to me, he had expanded to just about every work a house needs including building a new one. I wish I had known this because there was some work in my current house that I wish he had done. I am really upset that I did not get him to do it. Ever since I have learned about his new capabilities I have hired him to do just about every job. He replaced the sidings of my old house that I had put up for rent. I have to say he did an excellent job. The AC was leaking water in the ceiling and he got that fixed. Oh yes, the water heater had broken down and one guy said to replace it for $1400. Travis fixed it for like $200. I have to say that one might find him a bit expensive but he is fully worth it. His knowledge of plumbing, electrical, and construction is excellent. He knows why things work and why they fail. He knows the codes inside out and more. When ever I can get him to work on my projects I am fully comfortable and relaxed that the job will be done right.
He just spent an hour fixing some of my own plumbing work and teaching me how to do it right.

If there's an option for 10 stars, I would give it! I asked everyone I knew for a referral to change out my water heater. Nobody can say they loved their water heater guy. An idea popped into my head to ask a high producing real estate agent in my area for a referral, for surely they would know a good one. I was wrong. After I read the reviews on Yelp for the not-to-be-named referral, there were too many 1-star reviews for me to take a risk BUT it was a blessing in disguise. Why? Cal-Tech Plumbing happened to be listed right above it with 5-star reviews! I read the reviews and decided to contact them and see where it would take me. To my surprise, Travis is extremely responsive, informative, honest, detailed, and professional. After sending him photos of my water heater as instructed, he asked if I really want to change it out because it looked to be in good condition and I could probably use it for few more years. Most other contractors would have wanted the business instead of trying to encourage you to save money. I told him that while it was still working and has been for 12 years, I didn't want to take the chance of needing an emergency replacement should it die suddenly. Travis made time to come out for the job even though he was all booked. Initially I thought I'd have to wait at least 6 weeks but he squeezed us in within 10 days of us confirming an agreement to move forward with the project (granted it was a small job.) We received a detailed quote stating everything that would be done and we paid exactly that amount. Travis came out with Jose and got the job done within the time estimated even though we had no power thanks to PG&E. Cal-Tech stands behind their work and makes sure you are satisfied. We even got a followup text to ask if everything was working properly. Who even does that? So happy and lucky to have met Travis. If and when I have more work to be done in the future, I'd be sure to call them up. You bet I'd recommend them to anyone!

Travis is an honest person with integrity. I contacted him about a leak in our backyard spigot. He walked me through the process of diagnosing the issue. After buying a washer and tightening a nut, our leak was gone. He did not charge me for the time. Not many honest business owners anymore and he's just the nicest guy. Thanks Travis!

I was so pleased with the first work that Travis did on my house that I called him back to get his ideas about a garage remodel. Needless to say, he had great ideas and I love the way it turned out. There are many things that put Travis and his team above the rest, but his attention to detail is outstanding. He treats everything he does like he is doing it for his own home. I would highly recommend Travis for any plumbing or construction projects. I know I will be calling him the next time I have a need or plan a remodel.

Can't believe I haven't written a review for this business! Travis and his team has done work in our house for over 3 years now and they always do such great work. It's rare to find a contractor who'll be straight up with you, respect your home, and clean after themselves. He's always busy with other clients but he always finds the time and resources if my home needed any repairs. Extremely rare! Additionally, Travis is extremely responsive and communicative!
Would recommend him and his team to anyone!

We had recently moved into a condo and have been battling low water pressure issues in one of the bathrooms for too long of a time. Travis came and assessed the situation and was able to let us know what we needed to do in order to remedy the problem. He installed a new pipe valve system to prevent mold, since our plumbing was initially installed backwards from previous owners, and made sure that the walls were properly sealed. Our shower had some type of paper thin covering that would do nothing to prevent mold or water leakage. We went from a shower with little to no hot water to an amazing shower that works. The tile looks great. The communication and work is amazing.

Excellent service- Travis came to my house today due to some plumbing issues. He took his time and was very thorough explaining the solution.
It's rare to find honest contractors - Cal-Tech Plumbing is a company you want to hire for any plumbing problems. I appreciate the service provided today. Travis was very knowledgeable and if I have a plumbing issue again I will call him first.
Highly recommend.

I needed a plumber to install a new toilet, whole house water filter,under the sink kitchen filter. So I used yelp's ""request a quote"" feature to compare and Cal Tech was one of the 4 other companies that yelp suggested me. Travis was the first to reply and his price was very reasonable compared to the other quotes that I got. His reviews were all 5 stars which sometimes seems suspicious but I went ahead anyway because he gave me a fair price for the toilet and seemed knowledgeable about his work. I am so happy I found Travis. He is courteous, hard working, knows what he is doing and explains everything in details. When he came over, he looked at my whole house plumbing, suggested a few things that needed to be replaced without being pushy and installed the new toilet,water filter, bathtub fittings in a very timely manner. All the yelp reviews are true, you should definitely hire Cal-Tech without a doubt. I hope, he stays in business until he retires because I am not calling anyone else, he is my guy for electrical/plumbing/construction.
