My journey in plumbing started immediately after I graduated high school in Carson City in 1978. I ventured away for 8 months in 1985 to try commercial plumbing in Sacramento, but my true calling was in service, prompting my return to Carson City. My business began in 1999, and I have been lucky to cultivate a dedicated and loyal clientele. Carson City has treated me well, and I look forward to providing my services for as long as I am able.
Since 1965, I have lived in Carson City, where I went to school and graduated from CHS in 1978. I have been happily married to Tina for 20 years, and together we have raised five boys; life has been good so far.

Recommended Customer Reviews

Greg is responsive and reliable. He is a one-person business and was very communicative and trustworthy with me. Appreciate his help!

This fellow worked on two projects for us. One he never got back to so we got a different plumber. The other was a gas line install and the gas pressure was almost nonexistent. He refused to come back and check it unless we paid for a service call. He is also, in my opinion, an egotistical jerk. He also refused to wear a mask during COVID.

Greg is awesome had him come out to one of our facilities. He came in, did what he had to do and off on his way he was. He seems like a really nice guy with a great sense of humor.

Outstanding service! Greg did an amazing job. I would highly recommend him, and we will definitely call him for any future needs. All the work was completed thoroughly and Greg was polite, professional, friendly and courteous.

Petersen plumbing was fantastic from beginning to end! I had a horrible plumber come prior who tried to take me for $32,000! Mr. Peterson showed up quickly, solved the problem with a smile on his face & took care of everything! Their prices are as fantastic as their service! I highly recommend them and will call no other plumber!

Excellent customer service! Made time for my plumbing issues at the earliest convenience, even though he was already busy, and worked with me to figure out what my plumbing issues were. Really helped in figuring a lot of my house plumbing and went above and beyond to make sure my plumbing was fix. Great guy, with an awesome attitude, incredibly knowledgeable, and a lovely personality. Thank you, Greg, for getting our plumbing fix!

Would have liked to at least talked to Greg in person. Waited 2 weeks to get an appointment at my house. Drove 2 hrs to get there early to make sure I would be on time. At my scheduled appt time I called to see if we still had an appt. Greg said he would call me right back. 1hr and 45 min later he called back. Don't know how much longer I would have had to wait to get the work actually done, but I guess I won't find out as I have hired another company that came to my house in 2 days and will have the work done in 1 week. Greg either needs to hire more help or not take on so much work.

Greg has been our plumber since we moved to Carson City the fall of 2019. He has done a wide variety of work for us on several occasions as we have been renovating our house here before and after we moved in. He has replaced our pressure regulator for the house, installed several new toilet flanges and rings, repiped our gas line to accommodate our new stove, installed sinks and faucets and helped to reconfigure a tub to a large stand up shower. Greg is always super nice and always willing to explain options and provide a recommendation. When we have a plumbing issue or question, we call Greg and know the job will get done right.

The control valve on my shower/tub combo was shot and I couldn't shut the water off. OH NO!! So I turned the whole-house system off at the pressure tank and called Greg. It's the Monday after Mother's Day and there were several other urgent calls for his services but Greg cheerfully assured me that he would squeeze me in. He certainly came through. Not only was the shower/tub valve replaced promptly, but Greg also took the time to look at AND repair FIVE other minor but annoying plumbing problems in my home...all in an hour and 15 minutes! Greg was prompt, friendly, professional and quick...all at at fee that was kind to my checkbook. I will definitely use his services again and recommend him to my friends and neighbors.

Greg is a fantastic, enthusiastic, and highly skilled plumber. Over the past couple of decades living in Carson City I have, on more than one occasion, had to seek out his services for a plumbing problem. He has at all times finished the job quickly, professionally, and at a very reasonable cost. It is his business, he owns it, and he is obviously proud of it - justifiably!
