About the Business
Specialties
I do Installation, Service, and Repair of water heaters, faucets, toilets, water filters, gas seismic  safety valves, tankless water heaters, and also perform drain cleaning, whirlpool tub service, drain repair, gas piping, and water piping repair and installation.  My goal is to provide a consistently high level of service, based in careful analysis of the issues and problems, clear communication, and careful execution of the work required.
History
Established in 1990.
I acquired my license at the encouragement of my first employer, Bright Winn, founder of Bright Plumbing in San Francisco, for whom I worked 11 years. Â I went on to work 8 years for Mike Lipsey, owner of Lipsey/Mill Valley Plumbing, while serving a small but growing Daystar clientele as well.
The closing of Lipsey/Mill Valley Plumbing in 2000 was the impetus to operate Daystar Plumbing full-time, continuing to serve Marin, San Francisco and San Mateo Counties as I had with Lipsey/Mill Valley Plumbing, and to continue warranty work with Kohler Co., Bosch/AquaStar, and others.
I am grateful to both men for the invaluable experience and insight I gained from them.
I brought my fully-stocked Daystar van to serve Mike's clients, easily swapping magnetic signs for the two businesses as needed.
I continue on very friendly terms with them, Bright and Mike, and former fellow employees of those, sadly now closed, businesses.
Meet the Business Owner
I began doing plumbing for a neighbor, Bright Winn, of Bright Plumbing, in 1982 after returning to San Francisco from teaching English in Japan for 2 1/2 years.
I care very deeply about environmental issues, and have made several trips with a group to lobby Congress, the White House and the World Bank regarding forest conservation and the environment at my own expense.
I have been actively involved in environment-oriented issues, helping to defeat egregiously bad development, and am currently active in Pacificans for Sustainable Development , Pacifica Climate Committee, & the a city council-appointed "Climate Action Plan Task Force".
I  read "Scientific  American", Scientific American Mind", "Science News", and  "Parabola" cover to cover each issue.
