I have used the same plumbing company for over 20 years and have been happy with them. This week I needed a plumber to repair a leak in the shower and a problem with my dish washer. A friend who lives in Shelter Creek (San Bruno) had a very good experience with Salet Plumbing and so I thought I would try them. I am now a total Salet convert. Juan did a great job repairing the leak in the shower and the problem with my dish washer. The shower was a particularly difficult job because various part were damaged and/or poorly installed and screws were frozen etc.

I needed a new sink faucet. They sent a different technician and he actually went back to the warehouse to get a better faucet for my application. Thanks.

A quick response and thorough assessment of the situation was made after I called about getting no hot water in my duplex. Two new water heaters, new flue, etc were expertly installed by John Peters and Ryan G. They did a wonderfu job and left everything nice and clean after. I would recommend George Salet Plumbing and would use them for future plumbing needs.
