Kitchen Sink Vent Line Repair in San Diego
A homeowner in San Diego experienced ongoing drainage issues after recent pipe lining work. We conducted a camera inspection to determine exactly where the clog was coming from. After the inspection, we removed a section of wood siding, replaced the vent line in the kitchen sink, and added an accessible exterior cleanout.
Tankless Water Heater Installation in La Jolla
A homeowner in La Jolla reached out to us with questions about energy-efficient options for their aging tank-style water heater. After a thorough on-site estimate and consultation, we suggested the Noritz NRCR111DV direct vent natural gas tankless water heater. This advanced unit includes a built-in recirculating pump, designed to provide hot water more quickly and reduce waste. To improve performance, we also installed a crossover bridge at the furthest fixture, making hot water readily available throughout the home. The result: a compact, efficient, and high-performance hot water system customized to the customer's needs.
Bathroom Sink Replacement and Vanity Installation in San Diego
A homeowner in San Diego sought help replacing an outdated pedestal sink and needed guidance on selecting the right replacement. We provided a professional estimate and helped the customer choose suitable parts, including a new vanity and widespread faucet. Once the materials arrived, our team removed the existing sink and faucet, installed new hot and cold angle stops with supply lines, and secured the new vanity to the wall. We then installed the faucet, pop-up drain assembly, and reconnected the P-trap. The entire system was thoroughly tested to ensure leak-free performance. The result is a modern, functional bathroom upgrade tailored to the homeowner’s style and plumbing needs.
Whole House PEX Repipe in Lakeside, CA
A homeowner in Lakeside contacted us after noticing water leaking under the dishwasher and seeping outside. We carefully inspected the area and determined the dishwasher was not the source. After removing it and investigating further, we found a slab leak in the cold water copper line beneath the concrete. Due to the home's aging and corroded plumbing system, we recommend a full PEX repipe to prevent future slab-related problems and ensure reliable plumbing in the long term.
Our team removed all accessible pressurized copper piping and replaced it with high-quality PEX piping throughout the home. This included connections to all bathrooms, the kitchen, laundry area, hose bibs, and main line. We installed new angle stop valves, shut-off ball valves at the water heater, a pressure regulator, and Moen chrome shower valve kits. The project was completed with a 25-year non-transferable warranty.
Please note: All surface repair work (drywall, stucco, tile, paint, landscaping) is the homeowner’s responsibility.

Happy Plumbing was called to a home in El Cajon after the homeowner reported a lack of hot water and no water coming from the bathroom sink. Upon inspection, we discovered that the existing water heater, which was over seven years old, was deteriorating and no longer functioning properly. To restore service and enhance efficiency, we replaced the old unit with a Noritz NRC98OD tankless water heater. Additionally, we installed a pressure regulating valve (PRV), along with a ball valve and a hose bib, ensuring that the entire installation complied with current plumbing codes.
Noritz Tankless Water Heater Installed in El Cajon
