Radi responded to me the day prior and offered to come out after business hours or before I opened. Long story short, he came out early this morning before my business opened and repiped a wash sink I had and installed a new p-trap assembly. We had sewer smells coming up out of the sink for about a year. He made the transition quick and easily. Very fair priced. Very clean work & clean-up. I respect honesty, and this is a very hard working businessman. I will definitely be calling him for any future plumbing work. He even helped me go through a list of tank less water heaters to purchase and verbally told me how to install it.

Woke up to a slow main water leak. After the insurance recommended plumber came out and located the leak in the slab I checked Yelp and DR PIPER looked good. Called the number and a real person answered. In fact it was Radi Mintchev, the man mentioned in most of these reviews. I gave him a quick run down....he was in the middle of a job, and he agreed to meet me at the property the next day. Radi was on-time. Thank you. We reviewed the situation and he gave me good information about fixing the leak and/or re-piping the main line. His estimate was free.

This is an old house and we were not sure if we had found the main shut off valve or not. The valve was very corroded and no doubt would have failed if we had attempted to close it. I recommended replacing it. Radi gave me a good price and set to work. In less than 20 minutes he was done. We closed the new valve and the water to the house ceased to flow. Finally, an important piece of information I could use to make a decision about what to do next. This property is a two on one with pipes running everywhere. I thanked Radi for his information and we parted ways.

Radi is a nice person to begin. He was on time. He was honest. He was skilled. The reason I did not have him fix the leak or re-pipe the main is because we only received so much money from the insurance company. We decided to re-pipe the main and myself and several friends did a log of digging this last weekend. We made several trips to HD for supplies...laid the pipe, installed a new pressure regulator and finally found the T connection connecting the back house to the main. Mystery solved.

I would expect Radi to be nothing less than professional in all situations. Give him a call for your next job. I will.

Radi at Dr. Piper is my go-to plumber for any job. When I found my water heater leaking all over the garage this morning, he was able to fit me in same-day, showed up with the replacement water heater, and hauled out the old corroded one. He also replaced all the fittings from the plumbing and gas line, so those are new and reliable, and replaced the wall straps to bring it all up to code. Radi's attention to detail is reassuring, and his promptness, professionalism, and fairness are why I continue to rely him.

Very recently we've got re-piping after we experienced pin hole leaks four times. I've had talks with three companies and estimates. One of them is widely known Re-Piping company and the other was known to be low in quote. Dr. Piper was in the middle in price but gave as much technical confidence as the most expensive one. Dr. Piper presented the options, plans and pros-n-cons in detail. It was very helpful for me to investigate further for final decision.

We have a 2 story house with 3000 ft sq. It took a day for preparation of entire house. It took 2 days for re-piping and another 2 days for finishing and cleaning. Painting was left for someone else.

I am an engineer and watched their working meticulously. Their workmanship and work ethic impressed me. At busiest time 7 member of crew worked together and were efficient. Their job was clean and my wife and I are more than happy.

Later we found a new bath tub faucet makes hissing sound and called Dr. Piper for fix. The after service was responsive and very satisfactory. It was found a faulty gasket in the assembly was the problem.

It was regretful we didn't re-pipe earlier. The job was not as much messy as expected. They reviewed the house layout and figured out the most efficient routing. No more piping under the slab! No more anxiety when coming back from long trip!

I am proudly recommend Dr. Piper for re-piping and plumbing work.

There's never a convenient time for your water heater to start leaking and right before a Charger game the weekend before Thanksgiving is no exception! Two friends referred me to their plumbers, and I did some of my own checking with Home Depot and Sears.
Once the lever was switched and the water stopped leaking, I had some time to research and I'm so glad I did as now I'm 100% positive I made the right choice by choosing Dr Piper.
Radi was the only one who didn't try to sell me on why his brand was the best, and the only one to tell me how to even stop the leaking! Clearly he cared about helping me instead of just selling me a water heater.
Radi and Peter arrived early, were professional and friendly and I will never use another plumber for anything! These guys ROCK!

I truly can't remember the last time I had such great customer service. We called Dr. Piper on Sunday morning because we suspected a leaking pipe in our main water line. Radi offered to stop by to assess the situation at no cost. As part of his free assessment, he grabbed a shovel and dug a 3-4 foot deep hole to confirm where the leak was coming from. He gave us a very reasonable price to fix the leak. Radi knew we are on a budget, so even started explaining how we could fix it ourselves if we really wanted to save some money (mind you, this is all before he knew whether we would be hiring him). We decided to go ahead and hire him, and he went straight to work. He completed the job in a very timely but thorough manner. In addition to doing a great job, Radi was incredibly friendly and had a wonderful sense of humor. Would highly recommend!

Had 2 Plumbers come in before and take a look at a Leak coming in from the street, no one knew what was the problem, Dr Piper can in and fixed the problem in less than an hour the leak was gone and he even fixed one of our toilets as a plus. Would highly recommend him, not to mention he came on a Sunday Morning.

My entire home needed new copper pipe due to a slab leak and general age of the old plumbing. Radi and his men got the job done on time, with as little disruption to our home as possible. He cares about his work and it shows. The best thing I can say is that after tearing my home apart and putting it back together he was so meticulous in the process that you can hardly tell anything was ever disturbed in the home!

Expert, thorough, professional. Dr. Piper really saved the day! He works efficiently and I recommend his work to anyone with drain clog issues. I'm so happy that my shower is working again.

Don't bother with any other company- just call Dr Piper!! Just days before Labor Day Weekend our five year old tankless water heater stopped working. The search for repairs started, but turned into a search for a new WH. Several companies didn't even bother to come out and the ones that did, didn't even bother to open up our water heater to see what was wrong. They just wanted us to buy a new water heater, which they couldn't install until after the holiday weekend. Then a friend suggested we contact Radi Mintchev at Dr Piper. He came over and immediately opened up the WH to see if he could fix it. He found the problem, said he could call around to see if he could find a replacement part, But wasn't sure any could be found since the company had gone under. He didn't charge us for the hour of work! Radi quoted a price for a new water heater, lower than the other companies we contacted. He didn't want us to go without hot water so he offered to get it done for us the next day. Radi came at 11 this morning and was here for several hours installing our new water heater, fixing pipes and other problems from the previous install. When he left, our garage was cleaner than it was before, and we had hot water!! I would highly recommend Dr Piper! Radi was so helpful, took pride in his work, and his prices were very reasonable! Thank you Radi for the quality work, AND for hot water!!
