Company Overview
Henthorn Plumbing is a comprehensive plumbing service provider. Our services cover remodels, repipes, and tackling your everyday clogged drains.

My plumbing journey started in 2005 at a reputable plumbing company in San Mateo County. I valued my time in service, repair, and remodels as I started my career. I gained essential experience during that time. My next position was with another prominent plumbing service in San Jose, CA. After five years in the service sector, I felt it was time for a change. From 2010 to 2014, I collaborated with a top-notch plumbing contractor dedicated to new construction in Atherton, CA. In those four years, I developed a strong clientele in my spare time. To enhance my service to clients, I chose to focus entirely on my business, resulting in the founding of Henthorn Plumbing.
My goal is to revive that old-fashioned, clear-cut service because that’s my style and what quality work is all about. Henthorn Plumbing is completely licensed, bonded, and insured. I, Matt Henthorn, am the business owner and a licensed plumbing contractor (CA #994835) who grew up in Mountain View, CA.
I cherish moments with my wife and two kids, playing music, enjoying traditional archery, and, naturally, plumbing.

Recommended Customer Reviews

Matt was awesome. I discovered at 9 PM that my hot water heater had broken, and my basement was flooded with warm water. After a few basic questions, Matt was at my door an hour later with a new heater. Other plumbers might be grumpy and short in that situation, but despite the late call, Matt was extremely friendly, positive, and professional, and worked tirelessly until almost midnight to get me squared away. I really appreciated how he took the time to answer all of my questions and the fact that he respected my home, taking care not to leave a mess. This was quite possibly the best experience I've ever had with a plumber!

I Highly Recommend Matt Henthorn.

Matt is now my go-to plumber. I called several plumbers, all with 5 star ratings on yelp who wanted to charge me double what Matt charged me. All I needed was a cartridge changed in the guest bathroom shower. Matt came over in the morning, fixed it but I needed a new handle. My shower hardware was 15 to 20 years old and Matt called around and found one to match and had it installed by the end of the day. No extra charge!! He should be the first plumber you call. Nice guy, excellent customer service and he knows his stuff. Thanks Matt.

I was advised by a friend to call Matt. Upon giving Henthorn Plumbing a phone call regarding a continually intermittent water closet leak, I spoke with Matt who, right away, offered to come over to my place even as we spoke. Being greeted with such level of instant readiness to attend to issues is quite a rarity and it was my first glimpse into the level of commitment Matt gives his work. He did come over the next day, was meticulously thorough in detecting and diagnosing the nature of the leak, and quickly proposed and took a course of action that is quite uncharacteristic of the service industry: he decided to do an entire replacement of parts instead of taking short cuts -- even when, in doing so, he may have stood to gain financially no more than if he did otherwise. Needless to say, the annoying problem is now permanently addressed. I doff my hat to Matt and recommend him highly. Competence is vital and integrity is golden. But together, both are priceless. Matt embodies both. - O.O.

Hard to describe how grateful I am to Matt. I can honestly say that I don't dread plumbing problems because I have faith that if i call him he can fix it quickly, and affordably. He's definitely a specialist. He comes in, asks some questions, takes a look and then does serious magic.
Tonight, he fixed our toilet. It has been out of commission for way too long. He explained everything he was planning to do and gave us many helpful tips. We are now back to normal thanks to Matt.
Matt is extremely knowledgable and true professional. Thank you Matt!!!!!

Incredible work and customer service. Great for all of your plumbing needs. Good guy as well which makes a difference. Very fair rates. I encourage you to call Matt

I've known Matt for awhile and I love and trust him completely. I'm certain that his ethic for perfection is exactly what your looking for.

The drains in my shower backed up in the middle of the night so I left a message for Matt. He came first thing in the morning and fixed it in about an hour. It was a painless and great experience.
My father owns a plumbing retail store which I work for. I know the difference between a good plumber and a bad one and Matt is one of the best. Matt came highly recommended to me by my father who has been in the business for decades.
He saved me from having to use a bigger company which are sometimes unreliable. If you have any plumbing or drain problems Matt is your guy.
I will refer him to everyone I know and keep using him for plumbing problems at my home.

Matt is amazing --he comes when says he will and does great work with a great attitude and work ethic. We've worked with him for years. Highly recommend him.

Woke up on a Saturday morning to find out that our water heater is not working. Found Matt on yelp and called. It was pouring outside, but he showed up an hour later, as promised, diagnosed the problem (our 25-year-old water heater was leaking and had to be replaced). He brought the new heater and within a couple of hours we had hot water again. Matt was very friendly and polite, and his prices were reasonable. Highly recommended!
