Was contracted by Solar City to put earthquake shutoff valve on my gas meter. After that job was completed, I asked him for an estimate to replace a shower faucet for a bathroom we were updating. He took care of it right away. Naeen was able to replace the faucet without going through the drywall. Very courteous and efficient! I would use again!
Description of Work: Install new shower faucet.

Technically he did excellent plumbing as far as I can tell, but he accepted the wrong parts from the wholesaler and if I hadn't caught the mistake in time he would have installed the wrong bases, which would have ben a total waste of my money. He had had about 2 weeks to make sure of getting the right parts, but he didn't even start until the day before he was to do the installation. He charged me for the hours it took him to chase down the correct bases. He also had brought incorrect seats (wrong maker), and by the time he told me that, it would have meant we would have to go without seats until the next day or give him permission to install the incorrect ones. He assured me these would fit, but they don't fit exactly.
Description of Work: installed three toilets, of a model that I chose.

very well - on time, great attention to detail, no damage to existing shower wall. he also had to do some searching to find the vintage-style separate hot and cold faucets that match the ones on the sink. outstanding efforts all around ...
Description of Work: replaced both hot and cold faucets in shower plus the diverter system, including piping. he went in through the closet, created minimal mess, and replaced the sheetrock when done.

On the last job, I was attempting to replace an old bathroom sink by myself. The valve snapped off as I was attempting to shut off the water. Mr. Deskin arrived within an hour of my call (he was working on another project). He had the parts with him and completed the job in about 30 minutes.
Description of Work: I've used Deskins Plumbing numerous times on various projects from broken pipe repair to bathroom fixture installations. He's always been responsive, on time, meticulous, and efficient. His prices are in line with estimates I've received from other plumbers,

water heater repair

Pricing was very fair. They did not overcharge. They even helped me make my selection of which water heater to go with. I was referred to this service provider by another plumber that was unable at the time to do the work which I thought was great. He came in and was clean, drove a nice truck with a company name. The workers he had with him were clean as well. He acknowledges you while you are speaking. He is not pushy. He is very customer oriented and courteous. I would recommend them to others.
Description of Work: They came out and installed a water heater.

THEY WERE CLEAN AND POLITE, ALTHOUGH THE REPAIR TOOK MUCH LONGER, AND WAS MUCH MORE EXPENSIVE THAN IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN. THEY CAME OUT IMMEDIATELY EVEN THOUGH THEY WERE WORKING ON ANOTHER JOB.
Description of Work: THEY CAME OUT TO THE PROJECT TO REPAIR A LEAKING SINK AND A RUNNING TOILET.
