Zunaeed Kamal left this glowing five star review for Capital Plumbing & Drains on Google: “I came across Peri from Capital Plumbing when I had blocked toilets. He came right away at around 7pm on Friday evening and cleaned out the roots in sewer pipe. We never had any problems since then. Later, we decided to add a bathroom and he did all of plumbing work very efficiently. Last year, we had a water pipe burst under the house. He immediately fixed the leak and installed pressure reducing valve and since then we never had any issues. Just today, he also installed a new kitchen sink and a hard to install tap and everything looks beautifully installed and working perfectly. Thank you Peri for your wonderful service over the years..”
