2 comments regarding Tino. 1. I can only say, by comparison, that the charges are certainly less than I have experienced in the past. He detailed all that needed to be done and finished the task very satisfactory. Very personable to communicate with. 2. Have read the accompanying reviews to this site and am glad Keith A. gave him 5 stars. He's talking about ""Tino"" not Tony and I'm sure he meant conscientous not contentious! (Big Difference)

Toni is awesome. He charges fair prices and is super contentious about everything he does.

Tino was responsive, kind, fast, and went above and beyond on checking things out. He will be our plumbing call for now on
We've got a 1960's house with all the charm & issues that come that age, so it's great to have Tino in our phone for when things show their years!

Tino did an amazing job installing a pressure regulator and bringing our very old shutoff valve up to code.

We sent him photos as part of our quote, and he actually looked at them and thought about the problem before giving us an estimate. Unlike all the other companies we got quotes from, he was able to give us an accurate estimate the first time and clearly explained the problems he saw that were going to require non-standard parts or extra time.

His attention to detail was outstanding, and he even came back after a few days to make sure nothing was leaking.

We will be calling Tino again!

Our water pressure regulator was leaking and our renovation/construction company quoted us a sky-high number to fix it. After reading the reviews on California Pacific Plumbing, I called Tino, sent him a couple photos, and he quoted me half the price of the other guys (not a cheap price, but a FAIR one that he could explain!). He was fast getting back to me, accurate with his price quote, was able to come out the next day (miracles!) and did an amazing job figuring out the wonkyness of our 1961 house. I couldn't be happier, and I'll call Tino immediately the next time we have any trouble. Can't recommend him enough.

Amazing job, thank you Tino! After a last-minute call, Tino replaced our kitchen sink and all the old fixtures and valves on a Saturday afternoon. This was absolutely amazing service.

Tino make contact quickly, followed up timely and did the work as he he stated it would be done.
Pleasant and upbeat personality. David also very polite and upbeat.
I paid more for his services than other quotes but it was money well spent. No regrets.
Thank you Tino!

I am so thankful for having Tino come. It ended up that the bidet I wanted to install on my toilet was not compatible; but it was invaluable the knowledge I received when I asked Tino for a whole house inspection. Several neighbors on my street had serious water leak damages which cost considerable amounts of money and time dealing with what could have been prevented. I believe in being proactive instead of reactive.

Tino tested my water pressure which was 87 psi. Code or maximum pressure should be no more than 80 psi. This is a trigger for damaged pipes caused from too high pressure. My pressure regulator was failing so he installed new one.

The other areas that needed correction:

1. Under my kitchen sink, there are improper fittings which can can cause premature failure. My plumbing in kitchen had been recently installed in a complete remodel about 4 years ago, so it was relatively new.
2. My bathtub didn't have a ""p"" trap which is not proper which was found by inspection under my house. We saw that the water just poured out of the bathtub pipe connection onto the ground.
3. There was a metal strap holding up one of my copper pipes which causes galvanic corrosion. It is so good Tino caught this as it destroys the pipe. Tino wrapped rubber tape around pipe where other metal strap couldn't touch.
4. Two of my neighbors had water leaks they didn't know coming from their washer hoses which seeped into their floors and not only damaged their laundry but was far reaching into drywall and surrounding rooms. Insurance does not cover seepage because it is a maintenance issue and not a sudden event like an overflowing tub or washer. To prevent this from happening to me, Tino replaced my washer hoses with stainless hoses and also added ""antiknock"" valves which are when a surge of water jerks the hose and causes movement loosening the fittings.
5 . My tankless hot water heater needs flushed. This prevents clogging but I didn't know it should be done routinely,

All of the items above were found in maintenance inspection that I asked for. It was not Tino trying to up sell. He took pictures and videos of everything he saw underneath my house so I had documentation. It always scared me what one might find under the house, lurking, and never knowing until it was too late. Now I can address each item in order of importance and keep my home safe from ""catastrophic surprises.""

It is so comforting to have met Tino, not only for having problems taken care of, but his kindness, helping educate me in maintaining my home.

He showed up right at appointed time. I researched everything online for going rate of plumbers and he is right on target.

Please know that I found Tino on Yelp through the reviews of others with no prior knowledge of him or who he was. I always check Yelp before I hire anyone. I support the other positive reviews people had taken the time to post for others who do their research before hiring anyone.
