Plumber in Poway
Full-Service Plumbing for Leaks, Drains & Hard Water
Hard water contains high levels of naturally occurring minerals, and Poway’s water-quality information identifies hard water as a local condition. Mineral buildup can affect fixtures, water heaters, filtration equipment, and other plumbing components. We also diagnose recurring clogs, sewer backups, inconsistent water pressure, active leaks, and plumbing systems that may need repair or replacement.
Finding the source comes before recommending the work. Depending on the problem, we may inspect visible fixtures, test water pressure, check for leaks, examine water-heating equipment, or use camera equipment to investigate a drain or sewer line. We can then explain whether cleaning, repair, replacement, repiping, filtration, or plumbing maintenance fits the condition we find.

More than 40 Years of Plumbing in Poway
At , our history in Poway began in 1984, when Joe Christenson opened a retail plumbing shop here under the name Plumbco. The fixture-and-supply store grew into a full-service residential plumbing company.
Joe earned his California plumber’s license in 1986 and a general contractor’s license in 1988, opening the company up to a broader range of home plumbing and remodeling work across Poway and San Diego County. In 1989, the name became , Inc., and our red, white, and blue trucks became a recognizable part of our service across the area.
In May 2010, Joe passed ownership to Michael and Rachael De Silva. Michael had joined the company in 2001 at age 19, trained under seasoned professionals, and worked his way up to lead plumber before taking the reins. Today, we remain family-owned and operated as . We’ve operated continuously under the same brand since 1984, serving residential homes, commercial clients, and property management clients.

What to Expect When You Hire
Hiring a plumber carries real uncertainty: Will they show up on time, be upfront about cost, and stand behind the work? Before any work begins, you’ll receive a free written estimate. There are no hidden fees; the price reflects the scope, nothing more.
Technician Arrival, Completion & Support
Every technician we dispatch has been screened and background-checked, arrives in uniform, and is trained to treat your home with care. You’ll also receive an automated text notification 30 minutes before your technician arrives, so you know who’s on the way.
When the job’s done, your technician uses a tablet to collect payment and immediately sends photos of the completed work with your invoice. All services are backed by warranties covering both workmanship and materials. If you’re not completely satisfied after the job is finished, we’ll make it right.
Financing & Professional Recognition
For larger repairs or upgrades that weren’t in the budget, we offer financing through our partnership with Service Finance. Available choices include short-term, low-interest options and longer-term plans with lower monthly payments.
We hold membership with the Plumbing-Heating-Cooling Contractors Association (PHCC) and have earned recognition including the Angie’s List Super Service Award, Neighborhood Favorites, Expertise, and Best of HomeAdvisor.

Amazing service! David and Cole replaced my old faulty water heater on the same day I called. Service was fast and thorough. Both David and Cole were friendly and helpful in making everything work, so I could get my hot water today and didn't have to wait. Great communication and response time. David and Cole were respectful of property, considerate of the neighbors, and were nice to my cat, too. Would recommend. 10/10Randy Nino

It was a pleasure working with our plumber Martin. He went over and above what needed to be done and had a great attitude. This was not an easy fix and he made it work, with a smile on his face!

Great service from Martin Ruiz of Plumbing Plus. We had a leak in the water pipe coming into our house and he quickly diagnosed it. He had some issues getting the parts but stuck with it and found them downtown. Once he had the parts he quickly fixed the problem. Great job!Michael Fuqua

Join Our Plumbing Plus VIP Program
Plumb Star Partner™ Membership
There’s a difference between calling a plumber when something breaks and having a plumber who already knows your home. Our Plumb Star Partner™ membership is built around that idea.
Members receive front-of-line priority scheduling for both routine and emergency calls, 10% off all plumbing services, no dispatch fees, and free estimates. Once a year, we perform a comprehensive safety inspection: a water quality test, water pressure check, leak inspection, dye testing of toilets, water meter check, water heater flush, and a sewer camera inspection of one drain. All work completed while the plan is active is backed by a one-year workmanship and materials warranty, an upgrade over our standard terms.
That combination of priority access, annual inspection, and an enhanced warranty isn’t something a standard service call delivers. It’s designed for homeowners and property managers who’d rather stay ahead of a problem than respond to one. If you’ve had a plumbing emergency before, you already know the math. Joining the Plumb Star Partner™ program is one way to change the equation going forward.
If want to learn more about the Plumb Star Partner™ membership, we’re ready to help. Call Plumbing Plus today at (858) 630-3141 and let’s get started.
