I contacted Chris and was describing the work I needed done and was explaining in more detail the nature of my plumbing problem. He then asked how did I hear of his company. I was confused and said "craigslist" instead of angies list. He then rudely hung up on me! I am not sure what his issues are but if this type of personality translates into his greater business practices, I would keep looking for other more well adjusted business owners. There are plenty of plumbers who are polite and will allow ample time for customer dialog. When you choose a plumber you need to think carefully what lies ahead just in case there is a dispute over the quality of work or other matters that arise in work being done.
Description of Work: No work done, his rude behavior did not allow any chance

Description of Work: They pressure washed the exterior of my home and did a great job. However, I asked if I should move my patio furniture away and they said they would take care of it. They didn't move it and I had to clean all my furniture and items on the wall of my home, including crud left on the front door.

He's pretty good. I've had him a couple of times. I think he's pretty fair in his pricing and he's pretty upfront. He's gonna use material that's appropriate and he kind of stays away from things that are temporary fixes and he kind of lets you know what the score is.
Description of Work: I've used Chris Drain Service. He did excavation because it was kind of an underground leak. I had to get him to come here and fix it.

I called up Chris and left voice mail. He called me back and talked to me for a long time about some work I want him to do in our new house. Even though he didn't think he'd get much work from me at that time, and the new house was questionable because of an underground spring issue, he took out a lot of time to talk to me about Anaheim Hills etc. I can't believe someone would be that helpful like that...so I can only imagine how cool it would be to hire him for some actual work. In fact, as soon as we do move, I will be calling him up for some actual work this time.
Description of Work: Quoted drain work and work to replace supply valves under sinks

We had a previously arranged appointment to perform routing cleaning of my residential sewer line due to a root problem. Chris has been doing my drain service and plumbing for many years and he is always on time, professional and fair in his pricing. It should be noted that although I have him clean the sewer line of roots, Chris does not guarantee any work involving roots. This is a common situation for drain services. Chris is great and his work has always been top notch.
Description of Work: Routine cleaning of main sewer line.

I really liked him. He was very honest and explained everything he was doing and what it would cost. He is very reliable and I would recommend him to anyone. They have a 24 hour emergency service as well. I was very impressed with the way he worked. Everything was neat and clean, which I appreciate. He was polite.
Description of Work: He changed old pipes in the kitchen, cleaned out clogged up drains, and worked on my toilets. He was here for an hour.

CHRIS WAS SO FRIENDLY AND EXPLAINED OUR OPTIONS FOR REPLACEMENT. AFTER COMPARING PRICES AT TWO MAJOR HOME IMPROVEMENT STORES, WE KNEW CHRIS' PRICE WAS COMPETITIVE.
Description of Work: OUR WATER HEATER BEGAN LEAKING. I IMMEDIATELY CALLED CHRIS AND HE CHECKED IT OUT. UNFORTUNATELY, THE WATER HEATER COULD NOT BE REPAIRED, SO WE HAD IT REPLACED.
