San Diego County Plumbers
This is Us
From the start…Plumbing Plus, previously known as Plumbco, was founded
by Joe Christenson in 1984, as a retail store of fine plumbing products
in Poway. Customers quickly began to ask who they could have these products
installed by. It only made sense for Joe to branch off to service the
parts he sold. With great integrity, Joe created what is now Plumbing
Plus, a one-stop source for all of their customers' needs. The company
quickly started installing fixtures throughout the home and continued
to add services such as bath remodeling, water filtration, drain cleaning,
and others.
Over the years, customers came back time and time again. Our red white and blue trucks were sprinkled over the San Diego area and soon Plumbing Plus became one of San Diego's most trusted Plumbing companies.
In 2001, Joe would hire a new shop helper. Michael De Silva started out
cleaning the warehouse and assisting seasoned technicians at the age of
19. He was expecting his first child with the girl that moved in next
door to his family in 1994, and high school sweetheart, Rachael. Michael
quickly realized that a career in graphic design would not be able to
sustain a new family. He quickly changed paths when he saw career potential
in the trades. He became an apprentice and went on to become lead Plumber.
Rachael and Michael married in 2003 and had 3 more children. Eventually,
Joe would offer up the opportunity of a lifetime. In of May 2010, Plumbing
Plus was acquired by Michael and Rachael De Silva. Michael with the help
of his wife of over 15 years Rachael, continue to run and operate the
business today. We hold true to the values and traditions that have made
Plumbing Plus a success and continue to please clients with nothing less
than the highest standards of excellence and professionalism.
“As a part of our Plumbing Plus Family, you will always be our first priority. We could not be more grateful for YOU!”
Many thanks,
Michael and Rachael De Silva
