Customer's reviews

Scott came out for a quote on installing a new gas line. Once I have determined that I don't have lead paint on my or asbestos in my dry wall and I will hire him to come install my gas line. He was my third quote and by far the most reasonable. I am confident that I will be happy with the results when all is said and done. UPDATE: The work they did was great. They came in set up, did the work, cleaned up and adjusted my bill on the spot to include removing my old appliance. They were friendly and answered all my questions with confidence and never seemed bothered by me checking in throughout the time they were here to see the progress. I will be using this company for any future plumbing issues in the future. I would recommend this company to anyone who asks. ~ Amber S
Black Mountain Plumbing is an outstanding company with outstanding personnel. We rely on Black Mountain for all our family and extended family plumbing needs. We have highly recommended them to all our friends and have been thanked for doing so. There are professionals that you meet and work with that just need to be recognized for the quality of their work and the obvious enjoyment of who they work for and with. This is true for all of the Black Mountain personnel we have had the privilege of meeting and working with. In our most recent case it was with Dillon and Carlos. The attention to detail and the respectable way in which they treated our home needs to be recognized. We never hesitate to recommend Black Mountain to family, friends, and business associates. ~ Ron H
Larry from Black Mtn Plumbing changed out a water main valve located in my garage. I knew he was in for challenge because there was hardly any copper pipe left to install a replacement valve. He made a few adjustments by re-configuring the direction of the copper pipe and he was able to install the replacement valve with ease. I was very pleased with Larry's work. He was efficient and took the necessary time to do the job right and that what counts. In addition's to Larry's quality work, he has very good customer service, friendly and honest. If anyone needs plumbing work, I highly recommend Black Mountain Plumbing. They're accommodating and have demonstrated quality work each time they've done work for me. Their price points are one of the best in San Diego. ~ Rito S

What is the most common problem with a gas hot water heater?
The most common problem with a gas hot water heater is a faulty thermocouple. The thermocouple is a safety device that senses the pilot light's heat and signals the gas valve to stay open and supply gas to the burner. If the thermocouple is not working correctly, the gas valve may shut off the gas supply to the burner, resulting in a loss of hot water. Other common issues with gas hot water heaters include a pilot light that won't stay lit, a faulty gas valve, a dirty burner, a clogged gas line or air inlet, a leak in the tank or pipes, and sediment buildup in the tank, which can cause rust and corrosion. Regular maintenance, such as flushing the tank and checking the burner and gas lines for debris, can help prevent these problems and extend the life of the water heater. It's also important to have a licensed plumber inspect and service the water heater annually to ensure that it's functioning safely and efficiently.
When is it time to replace a toilet?
There are several signs that it may be time to replace a toilet: Cracks or damage: If there are visible cracks or damage to the bowl or tank, it may be time to replace the toilet. Cracks can cause leaks and can be a sign that the toilet is structurally compromised. Constant clogs or repairs: If your toilet is constantly clogging or needing repairs, it may be a sign that it is time for a replacement. Frequent clogs can be caused by worn out parts or a poorly designed bowl, and repairs can become costly over time. Age: If your toilet is more than 20 years old, it may be time for a replacement. Older toilets are typically less efficient and use more water than newer models, which can lead to higher water bills. Wobbling or movement: If your toilet wobbles or moves when you sit on it, it may be a sign that it is not securely anchored to the floor. Over time, this can cause leaks and other problems. Water damage: If you notice water damage around the base of your toilet, it may be a si
