Company Overview

Testing of backflow valves. Replacement and repair services for water heaters, bathtubs, showers, toilets, sinks, faucets, garbage disposals, frost-free hose bibs, and more. Our service areas include Carson City, Minden, Gardnerville, and nearby locations. I offer plumbing remodeling and new construction services.

My plumbing journey started in the San Francisco Bay Area in 1977, working with a small plumbing contractor. Shortly after, I enrolled in an apprenticeship program, attending classes two nights a week for four years, excluding summer breaks. I worked for several plumbing firms during this program, gaining experience in diverse plumbing installations. In 1988, I launched my own business in San Jose. I then moved my family to Klamath Falls, OR, where I ran Helwig Plumbing Co. during the 1990s. Now, I proudly call the scenic Carson Valley, specifically the Minden-Gardnerville area, my home, providing services through Helwig Plumbing Co..

I completed a four-year plumbing apprenticeship from 1982 to 1986. I have worked for myself for over 15 years. I graduated high school in San Jose and completed over two years of general education at community colleges. I have experience as a partial owner and estimator for a medium-sized plumbing company. I oversaw staff, managed projects, performed CAD drafting, and took care of company administration. I am now committed to fulfilling the service and repair requirements of the Carson City area, which includes Minden and Gardnerville.

We put in new kitchen countertops and need all new plumbing under the sink. Don installed the faucets, disposal, Dishwasher hookups and all the associated plumbing and hookups perfectly and quickly. The cost was very fair and reasonable. Don Helwig Plumbing is now my ""go to"" plumber for anything plumbing related.

After years of waiting for our water heater to give out, it finally did. Went to shower and the water was warm. I checked out Yelp Reviews and called a couple of places for quotes and availability. This company was the 2nd call. Don answered immediately. He gave me a quote to replace the water heater, labor and all parts. He volunteered to come over after he was done for the day to check it out and make sure there wasn't something more I needed. He called to tell me he was running a little late and check to make sure if it was still okay to come by. He was very sociable and knowledgeable. His price was better then the other quote for the same size and model water heater. We agreed to get it done. He came over first thing in the morning. He went above and beyond. He was clean and cleaned up after himself. He got it done in less than 3 hours. We will definitely use him again if we need someone.

The recirculating pump on our hot water system was on it's last legs. We called Don, who responded promptly, and asked that we text him pictures of the existing system.

He found a much better (and quieter) replacement for us, and was able to install it the next day. Both Don and his son Andrew were a pleasure to work with; professional, pleasant, on-time.
