We had a sewer branch blockage in our Eichler early this morning. Since it was Saturday a lot of plumbers are closed or connect you to chat with an AI chatbot that is not as helpful as speaking with a human. I called Ivan, he answered and booked us for the same morning. He showed up early, let me know the cost and then snaked the pipes from the roof, clearing the blockage. He was very friendly and considerate. The cost was very reasonable especially for a Saturday. I am very grateful for the excellent work. read more

I highly recommend Ivan from "Patterson Plumbing and Drain, Inc." He is extremely skilled, professional, and does top-notch work. He is my go-to person when I need quality and timely plumbing work done. Yesterday he removed sediment buildup in my kitchen faucet and also two bathroom faucets. This resulted in major improvements in all of the water pressures and faucet flows! He also cut out my old, leaking, pool and irrigation valves and replaced them with new valve and galvanized and copper piping fittings, and stream-lined the solution. (See the before-and-after photos below.) I am extremely pleased with his quality workmanship!! read more

We called Patterson Plumbing to fix a clogged shower drain that we had tried to fix with store products in the past without success. Ivan was on time and friendly. He explained the process and gave an estimate. Then as he worked on it, he saw a potential issue because of someone else's past botched fix and offered two ways to deal with it. One way didn't add any additional charges and the other way added some cost but would have looked a little better. I chose the functional option, and he fixed the clogged drain and the metal cover, all in about an hour. I would recommend him. read more

Expedient, good service, and fair pricing. I was in a pinch with my water heater, had to shut off gas because of a small leak and was getting ready for some time without hot water. Ivan saved the day with a short notice schedule on Sunday. He showed up exactly at the scheduled time. Very friendly and very clean service exchanging the gas connections. Would certainly hire again. read more

Ivan was able to give a good ballpark estimate of the work and cost over the phone. He was 30% of the estimate of some of the big fleet competitors that send out a dedicated estimator and won't work over the phone. He came out the same day and fixed our kitchen sink. read more

Ivan was friendly, professional, and effective. He helped us unclog the kitchen sink and rebuilt the pipes underneath it. Very satisfied with the work, as well as the overall experience of getting an estimate, scheduling the appointment, and getting the issues fixed quickly.

Ivan removed our old kitchen sink and installed new one. He is fast, efficient, careful and very pleasant as well. Highly recommend!

Wow, Ivan is persistent in solving my plumbing issue! I had the first plumber come out earlier who attempted three times in 45 minutes to unclog my main sewer line. At the end, he said that he would have to come back and use a hydrojet, but that would cost me an additional $800. I called Ivan and he spent 3 hours digging at my stubborn clog, not charging me anymore than the original quote! Hands down, he's an awesome man of integrity and persistence who cared more about getting the job done for me than about getting every dollar out of me. Thank you, Ivan! read more

I am really pleased with the work Ivan did. He cleaned out some roots that were causing a clog in my main drain line near the street and also a smaller clog in the shower drain. He checked all the drains in the house to make sure everything was clear. He made the whole process easy and the cost was very reasonable. He was very professional and he didn't try to push me into expensive repairs. He even recommended an easy way to prevent roots from clogging my main drain line in the future. I will call Ivan again next time I have a plumbing need. read more

Ivan was quick to respond, on time, and solved our drain issue very thoroughly and professionally.

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. read more

I have been a customer of Patterson Plumbing for several years, and this review is long overdue. Ivan has unclogged my drains twice. The first time was 3 years ago, and he accessed the lines from the vent pipes on the roof. Worked great. My drains are 60+ year old cast iron. Next, I called for Ivan to install some fixtures in the hall bath, including a new toilet, sink, and drain, along with new tub/shower controls. Most recently, my gas water heater needed a new gas control valve and chamber sensor. I was disappointed that a 7-year-old water heater had this problem, and the Rheem part was expensive. But it was still less overall than getting a new water heater. As for Ivan, he's responsive, arrives on schedule, and does excellent work. As for pricing, being a retired sales guy, I can't help but negotiate with him, and we always reach a fair deal. I will continue to use Ivan and highly recommend you give him a call for your plumbing issues. read more

We had Ivan replace our garbage disposal. He was on time, completed the job in less than 30 min and took care to leave the kitchen clean. We would call him for our future plumbing needs. read more

Hello. I called this morning, and wow, we were provided with quick same day service. We had several things that needed to be fixed from tighting the kitchen faucet which was very loose (wood underneath was getting wet); tightning of the filter water faucet, and shower handle. The major work was the slow flow toilet bowl water and he tackled the problem until it was solved which we appreciate very much...I called him the "Magic Man". I asked Ivan to check the house water pressure to make sure that it's within the safe zone range and coincidentally he noticed water puddles around the area and realized there's water leak (at about 3 feet underneath). He immediately tackled the job and fixed it on the same day. He is very efficient, knowledgeable, and an expert. He explains what he's doing in a very professional and calm manner. He did a great job on all the fixtures and takes pride in his work...great problem solver. He cleans up after his work. He's easy to talk to and very polite. He provides fair and good pricing. We would hire him again. Thank you very much Ivan. read more

After I made an appointment with him, he showed up at my door on time. He asked me good questions and assessed the situation (clogged drains). He then proceeded to explain where the problem is and how he planned to fix the clogged drains. He gave me a reasonable quote and immediately got to work. He finished the job under 45 minutes and showed me the results. He also explained how I could avoid clogging old rusty drain pipes in the future. I was very satisfied with his professional conduct with absolutely no hassle. read more

I did finally hear back from Ivan, the proprietor, after I posted my prior review. He replied to my review saying that he is still in business, but did not say why he hadn't responded to the FIVE contact attempts I'd made to him over the better part of a week, he just stated the two phone numbers he uses; those WERE the numbers I had texted and left voicemails with, in addition to submitting a contact request on his website. He also stated he was glad he did not respond to me in view of my earlier posting, then deleted that reply post. In the meantime I found a wonderful plumbing and home service company who responded within a short time of my inquiry, kept in touch with me on several fronts, and today sent a wonderful young man who addressed my immediate concerns and will be helping me over time with the other plumbing repairs and replacement items that I will be needing in the near future. read more

Fast and efficient service! Ivan fixed our clogged toilets quickly, kept everything clean, very professional - would definitely recommend!

Our home recently experienced a clogged sewage line. After spending some time searching Yelp for a plumber with extensive experience unclogging sewage lines, I chose two to call. One call was to Patterson Plumbing & Drain Inc. Ivan called back within minutes and set the time to come to our home at 1 pm that day. He showed up a little early and after assessing the situation propose to snake the sewage line with a reasonable price. I said to go ahead. He set up his equipment and accessed the sewage line from the roof. He kept me informed during the process and when finished showed me part of the roots that were clogging the drain. He also suggested that I use Root-X per the directions to kill the roots from any further problems. I could not be happier with his work and professionalism. Ivan not only solved the problem but save us some money with his honesty and service. read more

I called Ivan to clear a clogged sewer line. Ivan was one of the few plumbers who could go on to our roof and snake the line. He was very responsive and answered my call and came down within the hour. His price was very reasonable. After snaking the line, I talked to him about adding a storm clean out, which he told me that a clean out at the back of the house is preferred. He was providing me with an estimate, but as he was looking at the pipes under the crawl space, he saw a pipe extending out of the house. He checked and showed me that I already had a sewer clean out installed and showed it to me. It was under our deck that we never knew about. He was very honest. He saved me money!!! He is one of the most considerate and professional plumbers I have worked with. I highly recommend his services and honesty. He been in the plumbing profession for over 20 years as a independent owner. He will be the first person I call for any plumbing issues. read more

Around 9 pm, our kitchen sink suddenly backed up and overflowed while our upstairs shower was running. After reading Patterson Plumbing and Drain's reviews on Yelp, I called and left a message for Ivan. Ivan called back and we made an appointment for 9 am the next day. Ivan arrived on time, quickly assessed the situation, confirmed the clog was in the cast iron T, and got to work. It was a difficult clog to reach and took about 2 hours but Ivan got it done! He charged his hourly rate, which was reasonable. Another plumber quoted $3000 to replace the clogged section of the cast pipe in the crawl space. I wished he was the first person we called. The cast iron T will need to be replaced eventually and when we do, we will call Ivan for the job. Ivan is going to be my go-to plumber from now on. Ivan is friendly and knowledgeable, does a thorough job, and cleans up after himself. His prices are reasonable. All the positive reviews on Yelp are spot on. I highly recommend Patterson Plumbing and Drain. read more
