Read this before hiring a Landscape irrigation contractor or another plumber. I had a PVB vacuum breaker that had been leaking for over two weeks. I hired another licensed contractor to fix it, but after six repair attempts, it was still leaking. His final explanation was that the city’s water pressure was causing the leak, and he recommended that I hire a plumber to install a pressure regulator. After contacting several plumbing companies, which I usually try to avoid because of their high prices and service fees, I found Atlas Plumbing. I quickly realized this was a family-owned business, and after calling, I was pleasantly surprised to learn they offer free estimates. It’s hard to believe that a highly rated company with so many positive reviews provides free estimates when other companies I contacted wanted at least $100 just to come out and take a look. Atlas sent Glenn first thing the next morning. What can I say about Glenn? He’s a licensed plumber with over 20 years of experience. Calm, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. You immediately feel more at ease the moment you start talking to him. After inspecting the previous contractor’s work, Glenn refused to install a pressure regulator as the first solution. Instead, he explained that the real issue was poor workmanship and confidently told me he could stop the leak by repairing it properly. It’s now been a full day, and there hasn’t been a single leak. Even if something does happen in the future, I feel like I’m in good hands because the repair comes with a one-year warranty, and Glenn assured me they would come back and take care of it if needed. Here’s another surprise: I expected Atlas Plumbing to charge more than the previous contractor since that contractor was a much smaller business and the owner did the work himself. Instead, Atlas completed the repair, installed a new PVB valve, added the shutoff valve I requested, and still charged less than the previous contractor. If you want peace of mind, contact Atlas Plumbing. And if you want someone who genuinely makes the stress of home repairs disappear, ask for Glenn specifically. I highly recommend them.
