I'm very pleased with the job Curtis and his helper did installing our new tankless hot water heater. He showed up on time with a clean truck, and the installation was tidy, the pipes were straight and fully insulated, and the overall job was top-notch professional. They completed the job in less time that he quoted, and best of all, the heater works great! "I've installed hundreds of these", he told me - and it shows. I recommend Optimized Plumbing and Piping without hesitation. read more

Woke up this morning to a no longer functional water heater! This right before a big winter storm, and with a toddler that plays hard and needs a bath every evening. After calling around and getting a price gouging quote from Lowe's, I stumbled upon Curtis at Optimized Plumbing. He answered the phone immediately, provided me with a very reasonable estimate, and arrived within a few hours with a new water heater in tow! He did an amazing job and left everything better than when he arrived. Thank you so much, Curtis! You're a life saver and will be our go to plumber going forward. read more

We got up to our cabin and discovered a failed water heater. It could have been a logistical nightmare for us trying to coordinate getting a new one, but we were lucky enough to connect with Curtis after reading his other excellent Yelp reviews. He came and replaced it the same day. He was so kind, responsive, and flexible. His workmanship was very high quality, too. We wouldn't hesitate to use him again. read more

I used Optimized plumbing to purchase and install a tankless water heater. He provided an excellent service, including a quick referral to an electrician to prepare for the installation. The installation took two visits, the first during a period of nasty weather so he worked under the house. The second visit was the installation with very professional work. After a few days the unit was running constantly, which it's not supposed to, and he came out on his lunch to fix it! read more

It was a very common story - we open a door into our vacation home to watch the floor flooded with water due to a malfunction of a temperature/pressure valve in our electric water heater tank. Looking for businesses available to server Groveland area I found two companies I decided to call in. Optimized Plumbing and Piping was second on the list, but once I called them - the very first conversation over the phone, where I explained the issue, and we discussed possible approaches - tank vs. tankless, electric vs. propane - right after we finished I knew I would really want to do business with Curtis: - very knowledgeable - very technical - we discussed and agreed on moving from a tank to tankless solution and now we have extra room in our laundry room space, with the tankless "tank" installed in the house's crawlspace - ready to go an extra mile - part of the job we discussed was to put a propane line at our place, that was partially going over the ground under the house's deck, under ground. While doing the job Curtis needed to deal with a solid large rock that was on the way - his immediate comments were very simple: let me think how to address the issue - and it was addressed. - very accurate on promises and deliverables - timely and well documented with pictures, illustrating what was done, sent over the phone. I would highly recommend Curtis and his company and I can say if there would be a need to do any work with plumbing and piping I will call Curtis again. read more

I had Optimized replace my tank hot water heater with a tankless. I am very pleased with the results. Professional, skilled, and knowledgeable. I would 100% recommend for any plumbing job. read more

My wife and I recently moved to copperopolis in 2022. The home we bought had an older water heater and we new that we would need to replace the old tank water heater with a new one. The water heater is located in a closet upstairs and if that tank ever leaked the water would cause alot of damage. So we contacted Curtis at Optimized plumbing and Heating. We decided to go with a tankless water heater (Navien 240A2 with the buffer tank). The buffer tank will help keep the water hot while in use. We received a quote and had Curtis install the unit on 4/6/2023. The install took roughly 6hrs., remove old water heater hook up new copper pipe to the new tankless water heater. The job went smoothly for the install of the new tankless water heater. The job was done very nice and neat, and I have a photo and if I can get the photo downloaded onto my laptop, I will update this review. We run off of propane and our unit was set up for this. I would recommend Optimized Heating & Plumbing business to anyone needing to replace a water heater or going to a tankless set up. (cost of the install: under 4k). read more

Needed my direct vent water heater replaced. Unfortunately direct vent is not as straight forward as I expected, and Curtis suggested tankless, and provided quote immediately. He showed up as planned, stayed on budget, and completed the work same day, without any issues. Very professional, no extra trips or steps needed, explained all the possible options available, and demonstrated steps to use and maintain tankless. I would continue using Optimized for all plumbing needs. read more

We purchased a new home earlier this year and upon moving in, we discovered our hot water heater and boiler system had failed. We weren't able to heat our home via radiant heat flooring and had no domestic hot water available. I called Optimized Plumbing after discovering they're one of the FEW licensed boiler contractors in the area; being that our system was so complex, that was a necessity for me. I spoke with Curtis the owner, and after learning that we were without any form of hot water he shifted his busy schedule around and made us a priority. He ended up completely redesigning our fairly new, but poorly designed system and installed a top notch Navien Combi Boiler unit and all associated pumps and lines. The system has been working flawlessly. Curtis really knows his stuff regarding boiler systems / radiant heat flooring and I couldn't recommend Optimized enough. -J Blase read more

I called Curtis with a leaking water heater, i took a few pictures and I had definite ideas of what I wanted to replace the water heater with. We discussed it and he came out to see for himself. After some back and forth I realized that what I wanted (Hybrid heat pump water heater) wasn't available and wouldn't be a good fit. So we agreed on an on demand water heater. He realized (way more than me) that I was on borrowed time with a leaky heater, rearranged his schedule and came the next day and installed a new water heater. Professional. High Attention to detail. Pays attention to small details. Cleans up! read more

Amazing plumber. As a engineer i know great workmanship and they are the real deal was done to code and very neatly done. They completly re-plumbed my Ranch home (Jamestown)) in PEX. They replaced pipes, facets, kitchen sink and valves. They used a better brans of PEX than what was in Lowe and Home Depot. I read all the reviews that Yelp did not "approve"..., they were from new Yelpers and so Yelp typically does not use them. But... I agree with all the reviews. I highly recommend that you hire this company. read more

Curtiss, and his journeyman helper, Chris, did a great Re-Pipe job on our 70 year old place in Sonora. His estimate for timing and quote were spot on and his communication was excellent as well. All new PEX to 5 different faucets, two toilets and hot water heater. There was quite a bit of low level crawling required in our crawl-space and I never heard one complaint from either of them. Everywhere a water source was stubbed out, they used solidly mounted brass or copper and the PEX was all internal. Two of our baths had dual handle faucets and Optimized used nice "Moen" single handle control w/ a nice cover plate covering the old holes. SO NICE to not have dis-colored water from old rusty galv' pipes. Now our water is crisp, clean well water. Highly recommend Curtiss and his company for this kind of work. read more

This company is extremely professional. Had a problem and Curt came out and fixed the problem immediately. At a fraction of the cost that I got a quote from other businesses. Curt is a genuinely nice knowledgeable plumber! Will be using again! read more

Curtis and his dad were great. Curtis answered our call at 10PM when we were having water heater problems and he was super helpful. It turned out that it was time to replace the water heater and he was there the next morning, bright and early. They did a great job installing the water heater in our small closet space and replaced some of the old fixtures with better quality ones. I'd definitely work with them again for any future plumbing needs and gladly recommend them. read more

We had an emergency call out on a Saturday, and Curtis was out within two hours and our problem was solved. We expected the higher charge for emergency service, and knew ahead of time exactly how much it would cost. Curtis was friendly and professional. We have found our go-to plumber for any future projects and plumbing needs! read more

Extremely professional work! Owner Curtis is a clean cut, hard working, talented man. He is the area expert in tankless water heater installations. My wife and I love the new system including a re-circulation line he put in for us. read more

Curtis was very good and keeping us in the loop on what was going on and the finished product looked amazing!! We would recommend Curtis for your home or business. Dallas Lisitsin shop foreman at unique shop artisans. read more

We had a fantastic experience with Optimized plumbing! From the dispatcher who friendly and understanding, to Curtis who fixed the burst pipe in our bathroom. He did a great job and even mopped the floor after the pipe was fixed! We would definitely use them again. :) read more

Highly recommended. I had a Moen leaky shower cartridge replaced to fix a constant drip. He not only fixed that, but was kind enough to check my water pressure to my house which was 145 pounds, when standard house water pressure is supposed to be no higher than 80 pounds! I feel he saved me from a inevitable future water leak disaster. That much pressure in your pipes will eventually cause a leak somewhere, and possibly ruin your walls and floors while you are away from home! So, I had more work for Curtis to do, which he was very informative and straight forward with pricing before the work was done. He put a water pressure regulator valve in and a main shut off valve and accepted my input of how it should be done. Great work. Great professional communication. Straight forward pricing. Very happy with the work and will consider Optimized Plumbing as the go-to plumbing service for any of my plumbing projects in the future. read more
