Can't say enough good things about the service that Trieu provided us with today. He expertly repaired/replaced our faucet parts and solved the long-standing issue we had with a drip.
We especially appreciated the fact that Trieu was willing to answer questions, to help educate us about the situation.
In spite of the challenges and the job taking longer than originally anticipated, he was always pleasant and polite. And his fee was very reasonable. What more could we ask for?Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

If other plumbers cannot fix it, Trieu CAN!
I have had this kitchen drain clog issue for 5 days, consulted ~10 plumbers majority told me they cannot do it, and a few gave me ~$1500 estimate.
My kitchen is on second floor and the drain cleanout is located in the basement. Snake did not work at all because it was all grease clogging. All the previous plumbers consulted either does not have hydo jetting therefore cannot do the work, or cannot do hydo jetting from the basement (will cause a lot mess in the kitchen therefore they claimed a very high price).
Trieu is very experienced in solving clogging issue for multi story townhouse. He's got so many advanced tools and he was able to do hydro jetting from basement. The special nozzle he used for this jetting did not cause any mess in the kitchen. The overall process only took 1 hour. Trieu really delivered his work with quality and speed. Also Trieu charged a very reasonable price.
I will definitely recommend Trieu to everyone that needs plumbing service!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

Wednesday my kitchen sink was gurgling. Trieu was here in April 2022 so I wanted the clog fixed before the holidays. We made an appointment for today. Fortunately my drain wasn't clogged. Trieu explained and gave me some preventive tips. I am very grateful for Trieu!!

Apr 1, 2022Previous reviewMy kitchen sink was gurgling and the sink with the disposal was backing up on Thursday night. I called Drain Assist on Friday and had an appointment for late afternoon. He had a cancellation and was able to arrive in the morning. We had a work zoom meeting and he was willing to wait 15 minutes when our meeting ended. I am very satisfied and grateful for Trieu. I will always recommend him. Thank you!!!!!
Jul 22, 2021Previous reviewMy kitchen sink had a very bad clogged drain. The first plumber tried to clear the clog with air. The second plumber used a snake. Trieu Vo used the hydro jet. I am very grateful Trieu arrived at my house. They were very professional and I was impressed when they said they forgot to clean something and came back to clean it. I would recommend Trieu Vo to everyone. Thank you!

Easy to talk to. Great communication skills. I was stressing out because of a previous tree root problem. Trieu reassured me that it wasn't the tree root but a simple toilet valve and old flapper problem. He walked me through his food coloring test process and answered all sorts of questions I had about plumbing. A really great guy and builds his clientele with honesty and trust. I will have him back to work at my dad's house very soon.

I just had to write another review for Trieu's work done at my parent's place on new years eve. Not sure why sewage problems always happen to me near the holidays this year, but the last time Trieu came out for my place was only the day before Thanksgiving (see my previous review).
My parents place is very old (1907) and the plumbing was original and weird due to additions. My dad tried to snake it himself and finally declared defeat around 3pm. I called Trieu and was so happy he had time that day to come take a look. His estimate was 2 hours, but he was over in 1. I met him at my parents' place just in case of a language barrier. Trieu ended up hydro jetting from the roof vent and after the clog was cleared, sent a cam down to see what the problem was, all with my dad on the roof with him, explaining everything patiently to my dad who speaks minimal english.
Trieu is very curious and wanted to get down to the root of the problem. He was not satisfied with the cam images showing a dip in one of the sections. He used his detector to figure out where the pipes were, went down to the crawlspace (with my dad) to locate more of the old house's strange piping. While he was down there, they found a cracked pipe that was leaking and provided the tools for my dad to fix it at no extra charge.
All in all, Trieu went over and beyond for the service that he charged us for, which was just for hydro-jetting. I have been telling my friends about him and would not hesitate to call him again in the future.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

Thank you, Mindy for your kind review!
Nov 25, 2020Previous reviewWe had a clog in our main line and had water spilling out of our clean out. I knew I needed to get it snaked or hydro jetted. I called around and decided to hire Trieu based on availability and pricing. He was quick to respond and I'm so glad I decided on him over someone else. He gave me clear pricing over the phone for each of the services. His prices were very reasonable compared to some of the larger companies who used an answering service that couldn't give me pricing and never returned my calls.
Trieu was very patient and answered all my questions and explained each step of the process. At the end, we were able to unclog my sewage drain using hydro jet. I also had a toilet that was acting up. Trieu took a look and told me what was wrong and what part needed to be replaced. He said if I wanted to do it myself, it was a very easy DIY. I asked if he had the part I needed in his truck since I didn't want to mess with it over the holidays. And he did! So I had him replace it for me also.
Just a tip, his work is guaranteed for 30 days, so he will come out and unclog the drain again if necessary at no charge.
This service took place the day before Thanksgiving. Though 2020 thanksgiving will be uneventful, at least I can now flush without worrying about sewage flowing out of my tub. - Patrick Q.San Jose, CA14Nov 28, 2020
All I can say is Trieu went above and beyond helping me fix a leaking kitchen sink. He explained exactly everything that needed to be done and backed up his work. His ability to respond and come fix my issue within the hour was greatly appreciated. Trieu wore a mask the entire time and cleaned up his work area after he left.
I already have a few more projects that I want to line up with him and I can recommend him with the upmost confidence. He's your guy for any plumbing needs!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

If there have 10 stars, I will give him 10 here. He came and spend over 30mins to check where my ceiling was leaking on the 1st floor from the 2nd floor.
Excepting to cut a few holes to check where is leaking place on the ceiling on the 1st floor, he has a better suggestion to fix the toilets waxing instant. And then wait for a few days to see if it is continuing leaking water on the ceiling.
However, for the safe side, I hope he could cut the ceiling and check whether have any mold inside of the ceiling where the leaking water place is located on top of the pendant light. and whether the pendant light's electrical wire is ruined or not which may cause a fire.
His quote is very cost-effective.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

If I had called anyone else this would have been a huge ordeal.
TL;DR my sink is a stupid design and there is no clean-out... because my house is also a stupid design.
Drain Assist wasn't daunted by the stupidity of my house and got my super clogged sink working again for way less money than the multiple plumbers that probably would have had to come out. The solution was to hydro-jet my pipe from the roof vent on my 2 story house.
I called at 7pm last night and Trieu was here at 10am the next day. Clog left our pipes at 12pm and we all cheered. If you've got a clogged sink in the Bay Area, this is the only guy you need to call!
Thank you, Trieu!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information
