Mercifully, we have had little need for plumbers in the time that we've lived in our house. As such, we didn't have a "go-to" guy when we were faced with a bathtub that wasn't draining at 1:00am, with some some junk bubbling up when we ran the water in the kitchen. After trying to DIY a fix for about an hour, we realized that we needed to call a professional.
Not knowing whether we had clog in our pipes or a bigger problem with the sewer line, we started searching for plumbers that could address both issues. A Yelp search turned up Ivan Patterson with Patterson Plumbing and Drain. He's local to us, isn't a part of a big industrial company like Roto-Rooter, and has great reviews, so everything looked promising. I visited his website and using the contact form on that page, I fired off a detailed message of the problem we had.
I woke up shortly before 7:00am to try calling Ivan, only to discover that he had already responded to my message, offering to come by at 9:30am. He arrived a few minutes before the promised time and came in to assess the problem. Based on what he saw and what we described, he provided a confident assessment of the situation. He recommended a cleanout of the pipes from the kitchen sink area, where grease and debris had surely accumulated over the years. He felt that this would be sufficient to solve our problem, but offered to snake the tub as well for a small added cost though he didn't think it was necessary. We agreed to a price and he quickly got to work. He climbed up on the roof and ran an auger through the roof vents above the kitchen and the laundry room, and in short order he cleared the clog and water was draining freely. After he finished, he said again that he didn't think it was necessary to do the tub, but because we knew that a lot of hair goes down that drain, we asked him to proceed nonetheless. Of course, just as he predicted there was minimal obstruction. Still, we were happy for the added assurance.
Ivan was friendly and polite and explained everything as he did it. He cleaned the augers as they exited the pipes, making sure not to leave a drippy mess on the floor, which we really appreciated. The cost of his services were reasonable for us. All in all it was a very, very positive experience and I'm quite certain we'll call on him again the next time we have plumbing needs.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Peter C.San Jose, CA912Jun 16, 2024

Ivan is great. He's the owner and it shows with his pride of ownership for the work he does. Quick response and straight talk. Ivan called back quickly, gave an estimate for how much it would cost for him to the work, came by to take a look because he was in the neighborhood, and confirmed what he had to do. He quickly replaced our leaking pressure regulator valve and it looks great. Clean work and a nice job at a reasonable price.

Ivan stopped by within 10mins after my call, and gave a thoroughly inspection. He worked and resolved our issue through lunch time in a hot weather. Really appreciate the quick response and great service!

Ivan Patterson is my go-to plumber. This is an update on my previous review in 2022. Ivan is still personable, efficient, knowledgeable, on time and competitively priced! He keeps his work area clean and makes sure you are completely satisfied, explaining what needs to be done step-by-step. No fast talk or sales pitches. Great guy!

After looking in Yelp, I contacted Ivan Patterson. He was personable, on time, clean, knowledgeable and efficient! Wow!! Ivan is my go-to plumber from now on. Did I say reasonable ??

Ivan is a real straight arrow. Called me right back and came by within an hour. Gave a very reasonable quote for my leaking toilet and stuck by it. Fixed it quickly and accurately. Never tried to upsell me on unneeded extras. Friendly and communicates well. Even took Apple Pay!

I was researching how to fix my slow kitchen drain and found a video on YouTube of exactly what I was looking for. I was surprised to see that the video was from a local plumber in Sunnyvale. Rather than try to fix it myself I contacted Patterson Plumbing and Drain. I heard from Ivan right away and he was able to be there within a few hours. Ivan is a professional! I'm very happy with him and he will be our go to plumber from now on! Of course, I read a bunch of his reviews and they're spot on! Thanks!
