Finally my sink works and doesn't drip. New faucet is a pleasure compared to the old corroded one.

I was worried that it would cost too much to fix both the bathroom and kitchen sink. He looked at it and the bathroom was a big job but the kitchen wasn't. Both were repaired
and took one and one-half hours total. Looks really good. Everything works.

Would recommend. Honest work.

MIke Rice, the owner of this business, is the best plumber ever.  I call him the Yoda of Plumbing.  He holds both residential and commercial plumbing licenses and is prompt, honest, and knows his stuff.  I have been using him for years and can't say enough good things.  If you can't be home, he will come in, fix the problem, and send you a bill.  Anything he fixes stays fixed.  He doesn't employ any technicians so he is always the one to come.  I recommend him highly.

Mike at Capistrano Plumbing is awesome! We were having problems with several bathrooms and he fixed them simply and thoroughly. He didn't do unnecessary  tests or do the whole-thing-needs-to-be-replaced routine, though he could have, for sure. He is Fair, honest, thorough and efficient. We will definitely use him again! You need a good plumber? He's definitely your guy!

Mike came over within a few hours to look at our shower, which had recently lost water pressure. He was very cautious with it, knowing it was our only shower and we couldn't be without it for too long. He explained as he went, tired a few things and got it working without having to replace any parts. He was very quick and the price was right. You could tell he wasn't going to try to upsell us or do crappy work. We will definitely call him next time we need a plumber we can trust!

Prompt! Efficient! Trustworthy! Got the job done quickly and efficiently. Came out within hours of my initial call. Knew what he was doing and completed the job in under an hour. My regular plumber wasn't available so I looked at Yelp and saw favorable reviews. I think I'll use Mike next time.

We have owned our home in Marbella for 26 years and Mike is not always the first person I call...I usually call whoever is advertising $79 on the radio.  They send out some incompetent newbie who usually quotes in the $1000s.  Then I call Capo Plumbing and usually get the job done for under a couple $100s.  We even had a slab leak that we were quoted over $20,000 Mike did it for a couple thousand.  Saves us not only time but money.  Couldn't recommend anyone hire!

Last week I had another local company come out to fix a leak.  Instead of sending a plumber, they sent an inspector who wasted an hour of my time telling me the thousands of $$ of work they could do for me!  WHA????  I asked for a price to fix my leak and he said $900.00!!  I showed him the door and searched Yelp (which I should have done first)!
Found Capistrano Plumbing with all high ratings...Lisa is very nice and Mike was great.
He fixed my leak in under an hour, and replaced all the old 1970's plumbing under my sink.  May I add it was all for UNDER 22% of the first bid!! I highly recommend them!

I had some toilet valve seal leaking problem. Mike came over the next working day and fixed the problem. He is very knowledgeable and had the problem fixed in a matter of no time.

I have used him before and will continue doing so. Don't get put off by his well used working van...it's a community classic. He really knows his stuff and is reasonable in what he charges you.

Thanks for listening to my plumbing problem and offering a referral since you didn't do the kind of work required.

Mike was awesome. He showed up day after Xmas to find a leak in the wall. He was magic! Found the problem really fast with very little mess and then fixed a pinhole leak. He even replaced a couple of plumbing parts in a bathroom for us. Professional, courteous and knowledgeable.

I had a plumbing problem today and needed the help of a plumber.  I called Capistrano Plumbing to request service.  I spoke to Lisa Marie.  She was very cordial and set me up for an appointment.  Mike arrived at the scheduled time and took care of the problem in a short period of time.  Mike and Lisa Marie were both very friendly. Prices were very fair. I would recommend Capistrano Plumbing to anyone in the need of plumbing services.

I have a 60 yr. old laundry sink faucet that needed repair or replacement.  I sent a photo of it to Mike and he called within two hours, spent 10 to 15 minutes with me on the phone explaining how I should go about ordering a new faucet.  He was looking up similar faucets online and describing how they were what I needed.  And no charge for his expert advice!

Mike is honest, reasonably priced, and local to SJC. And, I challenge you to find a cooler truck in the business.

I have used Capistrano Plumbing several times now.  I am really impressed.  Low overhead = good prices.

If you want a competent, honest plumber you can't get better than Capistrano Plumbing. This family business goes way back to when San Juan was a quaint little town. These small businesses, (including DeNault's etc.) were able to stay around for so long because their word actually meant something. This business is a treasure for their community, but you also get a great job for a good price.
