WE HAVE USED C.A.P.P.S BEFORE FOR A MINOR REPAIR SO WE KNEW WHICH LARGE PLUMBING COMPANIES TO AVOID. ART IS VERY SKILLED IN HIS LINE OF WORK AND JACKIE IS A GREAT COMMUNICATOR. YOU ARE NEVER LEFT IN THE DARK ABOUT ANY ELEMENT OF THE JOB. RECOMMENDED THEM TO MY SON AND A NEIGHBOR. WILL USE THEM AGAIN WHENEVER NEEDED.
Description of Work: HAD TWO COMMODES REPLACED WITH UPDATED WATER SAVING COMFORT HEIGHT COMMODES. AFTER MUCH SEARCHING AND PRICING SETTLED ON KOHLER FROM LOWE'S, PLANNING ON C.A.P.P.S INSTALLING. AFTER SPEAKING WITH JACKIE LEARNED THEY COULD PICKUP, INSTALL AND DISPOSE OF OLD COMMODES FOR FAR LESS THAN WE HAD BEEN QUOTED FROM LOWE'S. WE ENDED UP WITH TWO VERY NICE ITEMS FROM GERBER THAT ART RECOMMENDED THAT DO EVERYTHING THE KOHLER DOES FOR FAR LESS.

I contacted CAPPS after receiving a quote that was questionable from another plumbing service. They called back quickly and we scheduled the service call for next morning. (I recalled later that I had used CAPPS for another problem before, but had forgotten; otherwise I would have called them from the start.) Arrived when scheduled, and found where the leak was occurring in the pipe. I asked at that point what he thought the repair would cost, and he gave me the estimate that turned out to be what I paid. The amount was about 1/3 of what I had been quote by the first service company. He repaired the leak quickly; filled in the hole and re-wrapped the pipe in a very timely manner. Very professional throughout.
Description of Work: Located and repaired outside underground water leak. Replaced section of pipe where leak was. Refilled hole and wrapped pipe.

We purchased this home new from a reputable contractor...immediately after moving in we starting have a dripping faucet in the master bath. We called the builder - they sent someone out; told us it was repaired and left.Since we use normally use the shower and we use the master shower on rare occasions, we didn't know that the problem HAD not been corrected; the drip had stopped but as soon as you turned the faucet on - the drip would start again. So we requested another repair from the builder. Again, they sent the contractor out - he made the drip stop and we assumed it was fixed.When we turned on the faucet to clean the dust out of the tub, we realized the faucet wasn't fixed so I decided to have an outside contractor come in and work on it - that's when I decided to try Angie's List to find a reputable plumber because I'd called one plumber and the cost to come out and just look at it was enormous. Plus without even seeing the faucet they suggested that I purchase a new one from them and let them install it. My decision to finally have someone come out came about when I received an advertisement from Angie's List about a plumbing special. I decided to give it a try. It was easier than I thought. I called the vendor; they were available and came out within a day or so. The contractor was very nice, polite and helpful. He explained EVERYTHING he was doing - which was helpful and once he diagnosed the problem, he explained what it was. He made sure not to leave until I was confident the problem was fixed. He did an excellent job. He was courteous, helpful, polite, punctual, knowledgeable and personable. I've turned on that faucet several times since he completed his work and not once has it dripped. I am so thankful I called Angie's List. I'd heard some horror stories about plumbers prices, etc., but this company dispelled the rumors and my fears. Thank you C.A.P.P.s Plumbing...thank you Angie's List for providing us with great contractors!

They looked for a leak. They pulled the toilet out and thats where the leak seemed to be. This is the second time I have used their services. In fact we are telling our friends about him. I found him on Angies list and they had good reviews and so we tried him out and thats who we are going to use from now on. They don't charge an arm and a leg.

My husband called Jackie and left a message then my husband's phone died. Jackie tired to call my husband but could not reach him. Jackie called me. Jackie identified the repair was not an emergency, but she heard that I needed it done before Thanksgiving. The appointment was scheduled for the Friday before Thanksgiving. The reason we called CAPPS is because the clog in the bar sink could not be reached with a normal snake. Art's longer snake reached the clog easily. Art was in and out in about 15 minutes.
Description of Work: We've used Art & Jackie since 2001. I've used them personally for primary homes and rentals; plus I've recommended them to many of my real estate clients. The latest service was unclogging a bar sink. As always, Art works quickly and confidently.

I called Jackie and she scheduled an appointment for the next day between 8-12am. Art arrived at 915am and went right to work. He replaced both faucets and cleaned the drains with a minimum of drama. I enjoyed talking to Art and watching him do a great job( I wish I had some plumbing talent ). Art was very friendly and I would HIGHLY recommend using him for your plumbing needs. It is great to work with the "owner"/operator.
Description of Work: I had 2 bathroom faucets that needed replaced and the drains needed cleaned because they ran slow and backed up into the other sink.

I was very happy with the quick response, the repair, and also extremely pleased with the reasonable cost of the service. I've never used the word "reasonable", to describe a plumbing bill, until now. I would most definitely use them again.
Description of Work: My home had a pipe leak in the wall of an upstairs bathroom. The water had traveled down ducting into the sheetrock of the garage ceiling causing the paint and sheetrock to bubble. It had saturated the adjacent bedroom's carpet and was forming a puddle on the garage floor. I contacted C.A.P.P.S. Plumbing based on their Angie's List Reviews and their close proximity to my neighborhood, hoping that would expedite service. It was well after noon when I left a message. They returned my call promptly. The plumber was on call in another area of town, so I was worried that I might not be able to have the problem taken care of the same day. However, they gave me a call as soon as they finished their other job and let me know they would be over shortly. The plumber was at my home, found the leak, sweat in the new section of pipe, and had the water back on before 4:30 p.m. He even vacuumed out the soaked carpet.

My project went great because I saved a lot of money by doing the plumbing work myself, after the CAPPS plumber explained in detail all that I needed to do to finish the job successfully.
Description of Work: I was having my bath tubs refinished and i wanted to replace the shower system in each bathroom and upgrade each to a MOEN shower head/faucet system. CAPPS provided a free estimate service and came out to look at my proposed project. The 2 bath project was estimated to cost over $700; however, the CAPPS plumber pointed out that I already had a MOEN system and that all I truly needed was to replace the cartridge stems valves, polish my 33-year-old fixtures and I'd be back in business. I took his advice and spent $50 at Home Depot for replacement stems and performed the task myself (30-minutes per valve) and saved at least $650 thanks to the CAPPS plumber's advice. I had called 2 plumbers to come give me an estimate and CAPPS was the only one who showed up and showed up on time. Should I ever need any plumbing work done in the future I will certainly utilize CAPPS and I hereby recommend them highly to all on Angie's List.

The master plumber cameduring the time period specified and repaired the hose bib in an excellent manner. He replaced some PVC and "sweated" a new copper fitting on to the pipe leading from the foundation. His workmanship and demeanor were outstanding!

We called on Sunday and were told we'd have help on Monday. The plumber arrived at the expected time on Monday. My husband met him and raved about how smooth it went. The plumber was friendly, professional, and completed the work in an hour. He cleaned up after his work was complete. We have paid $80 more for the same service by another company before. We will absolutely use CAPPS again.
Description of Work: We had a toilet leak from underneath. The floor around the toilet was wet and there was a bad odor. The toilet had to be removed and a new seal put in place after it was raised to floor level. Our new tile floors were unfortunatley the cause.

Background: Called SAWS concerning an ever-increasing lack of water pressure making an incorrect assumption it was caused by work they've been doing in the area. SAWS came out and all was ok on their end and noted a probable PRV adjustment issue/failure. Price: Called several plumbing companies for prices. C.A.P.P.S. price was comparable to other companies. However, the Angie's List coupon, ratings and initial contact with Jackie gave them the winning edge. Initial Contact: Left message with C.A.P.P.S. and Jackie returned my call a few minutes later. Jackie politely listened to and sympathized with the recital of my water saga. Thank you Jackie; I really needed to vent. :) Scheduling: Although C.A.P.P.S had a busy schedule ~ Jackie spoke with Art and he was able to squeeze me in on the same day! Thank you Art!! :) Repair Experience: Art tested the water pressure and PRV prior to replacement to ensure it was faulty. The PRV was indeed the culprit and in need of replacement. Art was extremely polite, professional, and arrived with all the parts needed to promptly complete the job. Recommendation: Highly recommend! I will definitely use C.A.P.P.S. again in the future. Aftermath: Excellent water pressure at last. I am elated! :)

I called Jackie a couple of days ago to set up an appointment because my toilet had been running (which I had ignored). I was prompted to do this because my water bill had a huge spike! OUCH! She scheduled the appointment for Wednesday between 1 and 5pm. Art arrived by 3pm and I showed him the problem. I also had him check the 2nd bathroom to make sure all was good there. He finished within 45 minutes (including a trip to the store b/c he didn't have a part) and everything works great. He told me that I could show them his bill and they would give me credit and I called SAWS this morning and he was right! (Thanks, Art!) I have had the good fortune of having Art as my plumber for the past 10 years and I have always been happy with his service. Last year I had a slow leak under my kitchen floor which happend on the Friday of a holiday weekend. I was in a panic because I didn't want it to spread to the den and it already destroyed my kitchen floor! He was at my house within 2 hours and had the leak stopped! Then he came back after the holiday and re-routed the burst pipe which entailed cutting open a wall, etc. I have also had him do mundane things like install a new kitchen faucet, replace washers, and fix an outside leaking pipe. Every time he has arrived on time with a smile on his face and fixed my problem in a timely manner. I have recommended him to countless friends and they have also been impressed with his professionalism and friendliness and, more important, his excellent work. He's also a really nice guy!
Description of Work: I had running toilet and I needed a fix. My water bill had spiked and I neglected to have him come sooner. Art let me know that I could call the water company and ask them to reduce the bill.

Nothing to add - full story is in the previous paragraph.
Description of Work: Basic service - hose bib replacement. We also had a leaky toilet - after a basic inspection, we were advised to do some carpentry work and then deal with the plumbing. He didn't rip up the toilet and then say, 'sorry, I can't put it back.' A great service at reasonable rates. Very trustworthy!!! It isn't easy to find a great plumber, and I'll call C.A.P.P.S again.

I've had them several times. I thought that the heater was turned off, but it had exuded a bunch of salt that had formed a kind of stuff on the floor. They had to chip all that out and get it cleaned. They did that and they were good. Their quality was good and they were very responsive.

Our plumber of five years and another plumber estimated that it might take up to a full day to fix the slow running drains. Our regular plumber sometimes has a plumber and an assistant, so the potential cost was daunting. I visited Angie?s List and found a number of A-List plumbers, so I called Morrison Supply Company for a second reference. Angie?s List and Morrison suggested C.A.P.P.S. Plumbing. From the first call (his wife, Jackie, answers the phone) I was impressed. Jackie fully understood the problem, spoke with Art, and we scheduled an appointment the next day. Art arrived right on time, is very professional and very pleasant, and worked quickly, but thoroughly to complete the work. I had forgotten to mention replacing the kitchen hand sprayer and checking out our tankless water heater, but he cheerfully handled those projects and was out of the house in under 2 ? hours (nowhere near the full day the other plumbers estimated). While Art was wedged under our sink installing the new sprayer, I asked him about his most baffling appointment. He told me about a woman who called and said that the water in half of her house would stop running for ? a day, and then come back on. Another plumber had run a new water line ($2,500), but it didn?t solve the problem. When Art arrived, he asked to see her air conditioning system. There he found that a water pipe would freeze closed when the air conditioner was running full blast. When the weather cooled off in the evenings, it would thaw out and run again until the next day. He diverted the water pipe and the problem was solved. A few months later he arrived at a commercial building and saw three separate plumbing company trucks, and learned later that the owner had paid in excess of $20,000 trying to solve the same problem the woman customer had. He checked the building air conditioner, and sure enough, they had the same problem. He solved the problem in no time. We are telling friends as fast as we can about our new plumber! Unlike our regular plumbing company, Art is a master plumber (license) and doesn?t send junior plumbers out to do the work. Whether you need help with a commercial property, or for your home, you will be delighted that you called Art.
Description of Work: Several indoor faucets and a shower were running slower and slower and the owner (Art) cleaned the filter screens, and control valves. Also inspected washing machine filter screen, and inspected outdoor hose that was running slowly and fixed the problem. Replaced the kitchen hand sprayer. Inspected Takagi tankless water heater for possible maintenance.
