Fallbrook Plumbing

Recommended by another local business. Quick response to voicemail, came out next day. Arrived on time, repaired pipes quickly, very reasonable pricing, friendly. Highly recommend. Would use their service again.

Talk about competent, reliable, and reasonable service...this is one. Mitch is responsive to phone calls, arrives as promised, and does not gouge. He has saved me tons of $.

Mitch saved me from a difficult situation.  He came to my emergency within one hour time.  I appreciate his professionalism and experience. Not sure why some people were critical of him in past reviews. I had no problem paying his reasonable fees.  He loves what he does and is a honorable man.

Called Mitch regarding a gas to propane conversion on new LG Wash Tower washer/dryer combo. While other companies (including Ameri-gas) said they couldn't do it. Kyle came (same day) and had it done in a little over an hour. He had never seen the appliance before (brand new from LG), but looked at the limited installation manual, Googled a few references and then figured it out. No one knows everything about every appliance as other reviewers seem to expect. LG does not train plumbers or appliance repair companies. Someone like Kyle takes the time and care to figure it out. Work area was clean and Kyle was respectful of my home and met my needs. Highly recommend using this company,

Mitch is fantastic. Super nice and professional. He did a great job unclogging our tricky backed up sink. It was not an easy job but he was bound and determined to fix it, which he did!! Highly recommend.

Moved into a rental May 10th, about a week later the kitchen sink backed up.  We called our landlord and he said to call Mitch, he uses him for all his jobs. Mitch comes out and states that he's been out a few time to this residence to snake the kitchen sink.  We pay if I remember correctly $130 for him to do so.  Less than a month later the sink is backed up again, I decide I'm not going to call Mitch because it seems that whatever he's doing is just a band aid.

Roto Rooter comes out, I tell the guy my story.  He immediately goes out to the trap, located underneath the kitchen sink window, opens it up and it's FILLED with sludge!!!  Roto Rooter says ya, I wouldn't recommend you use that guy again.  

Don't judge someones capabilities in doing their job based on how many years they've been doing it.  Mitch supposedly has 35+.......yet he missed this, when a young guy about 30 years old spotted it right away??  Either Mitch is not too bright or he neglected on purpose so that he could keep collecting money to snake it every time it would inevitably back up.

I wish I could get my money back!!!

We had a crack in an exterior plastic pipe. I called Mitch at Fallbrook Plumbing and he fit us in that afternoon. It was fast, seamless and professionally done. Thank you!

What a great team Mitch and Kyle are together.  They came to my home and knocked out a job that was very challenging.  This is not their first time in my home fixing problems with such expertise.  I so enjoyed the exchange of humor between these gents as they were working toward the solution.  I know if I having a plumbing issue these gents are the experts to grab. So happy with the outcome. Great Job!

Nice people but way, way way over charged. To convert a stove to propane ( something the propane companies use to do for free) I was charged $260. What was normally a 30 to 45 minute job ended up to be a 2+ hour job. Part of the charge was while Kyle was reading the instructions as to how to do it. So I paid for professional service and the training time for him to learn the job yet the Hourly is for an expert. Save your money, hire a handyman. After reading other yelps it appears that tactic is not usual for them.

Mitch came over to do an under-the-sink install of an RO system.  He claimed that he had done this sort of thing many times. Yet, during the install, he constantly read the directions, as if he never encountered a situation like ours. Ended up taking about 3-3.5 hours, about an hour or so too long.  So long, Mitch!  You lost our business forever!

Mitch and his team have done excellent work for me for many years. Always professional, on time, fair pricing, and achieving excellent results. You can't beat Fallbrook Plumbing.

Mitch came at a time when we needed a quick response. We were moving my Mom's home and found a broken water line to the refrigerator. Mitch came and fixed it even as we loaded the truck and moved. I trusted Mitch to finish the job and lock the house. He did as promised and sent me pictures of the work being done and when finished. This guy is a true Fallbrook specialist - we highly recommend him and his company.

Quick shoutout to Kyle who recently installed a new water heater at my home. Kyle went above and beyond my expectations during the repair which required some modifications to the install. When finished the work area was spotless and the water heater is working great.
You have a great employee on your team Mitch. Thanks again Kyle.

Here are a few pictures of the mold infested water heater platform Fallbrook Plumbing was going to reinstall a new overpriced water heater on top of. There were literally mushrooms growing out of this platform. Please read Shirley's post in the hidden posts @ not recommended reviews. How ironic these truthful testimonies are hidden from the public.

Kyle from Fallbrook Plumbing came today, on time, and fixed my broke shower handle quick and efficiently. He also stayed extra time and replaced my broken garbage disposal.
Kyle is friendly, respectful and and a home town guy. I highly recommend Fallbrook Plumbing. Great Service!

We had a slab leak under our sink in our kitchen island on a Sunday. I called and spoke with Mitch and discussed our options. He gave suggestions and reaffirmed things we had already done to diagnose. Fortunately because my husband is handy we were able to fix our leak on our own. Mitch took it upon himself to call us just to check in and see how we did. Hopefully we don't need to call a plumber again but would definitely call Mitch with Fallbrook Plumbing.

We have been searching for a reliable plumber for a long time.  Finally we found Fallbrook Plumbing.  
Our water heater began to leak on Saturday morning, we placed a call and they were at our home within two hours.  They diagnosed the problem and Monday morning we had a good quality water heater installed.  
Fallbrook plumbing was professional and friendly with fast service.  Much appreciated!

If your looking for a company that can pretty much deal with almost any plumbing problem I highly recommend Fallbrook plumbing.  I have known Mitch (the owner) for years and he has always been willing and able to remedy all of my plumbing problems.  From routine plumbing problems (water,sewer,gas) to customized home plumbing projects Mitch and Kyle are your plumbers.  Hire them once and you'll understand why this family owned and operated business has been around for years.  Professional, knowledgeable, honest, reliable and friendly are the reasons why I'm recommending them.

We have used Mitch for all types of plumbing issues and always been very happy with his service. Our main line was clogged and he recommended a septic company to dump our septic... great recommendation! Unfortunately, the main still needed to be snaked. Mitch came out the same day and cleared it. Great job and great price!!

Mitch at Fallbrook Plumbing is an outstanding plumber. He obviously has extensive experience in his field and is very knowledgeable in what he does. Right away when looking at the problem, his expertise becomes obvious and his solutions are accurate, precise, and cost effective. He is also an honest person with quality character, and an excellent communicator. He is definitely somebody you can trust to do a good job and to always tell the truth about the work and be precise in his description of the problem. His experience is invaluable and his concern for the customer is unmatched. I would highly recommend Fallbrook Plumbing to anybody needing a plumber.

We have used Fallbrook Plumbing on several occasions. The first was for a slab leak that happened under my daughters bedroom. Mitch was always prompt and friendly. He did an outstanding job on our problem.

We called him in again on a second occasion to have a drain line added to our garage/laundry room area as we wanted to add a deep sink. His pricing was very reasonable and his work on the project was prompt and done very well.

I have recommended Fallbrook Plumbing to several of my friends and family members and they have also had good experiences with him.

Fallbrook plumbing once repaired minor leak in the copper piping  in my property, his price was reasonable, and I had no problems with his repair. But when I contacted him later for different plumbing jobs,  I started noticing strange pattern: after making appointment ,the owner would call  back and change things, he would say that he could stop by to take a look, but wouldn't be able to actually do the job right away, I would have to  wait  a week or two.
It didn't happen just ones, it happened on 3 different projects. Even when I agreed to his  next week  appointment, he didn't even  call and I end up wasting my time.

Fallbrook Plumbing came highly recommended by several people. We had a pressure regulator blow late on a Saturday night. I spoke to Mitch on Sunday morning and he came to give me an estimate within an hour. Spent about an hour and installed new regulator and ball valve. He checked and verified water pressure boTh inside and out. Did good work for a fair price, considering it was a Sunday morning.

Came on time and replaced laundry valves and a pressure regulator in no time.  It was a year ago and it still works great - no leaks.  Price was surely according to my urgency situation.

Had a problem with another NO SHOW _ Dead Beat Plumber

Called these guys --  The owner answered the phone

Bad cartridge on showers --- many newer homes in neighborhood had same issue

He asked me to photograph the shower handle on Thursday night -

Scheduled me after 12:30 on Friday
(knowing I had to pick up my daughter from school at 2pm)

On time and had me done before my 2:00 pm deadline

Great Service and Highly Recommended

No Plumber is cheap --
But if you want to get the job done , and a honest guy  HERE YOU GO !

Fallbrook Plumbing is great. Both Mitch and Kyle are the epitome of professionalism. They are prompt, efficient and personable. My sink leak is no more and, boy, are we happy! You can rely on them for all things plumbing! Jennifer Jeffries

Mitch is a great, experienced and most importantly honest plumber.  My kitchen sink had poor water pressure and he quoted me $295.00 to fix and replace the entire faucet.  While he was fixing the issue he found the problem with the existing faucet and was able to fix the issue while keeping my original faucet fixture.  He only charged me $95.00 dollars as opposed to the $295.00 he originally quoted. He has been doing his job over 36 years and has great customer service skills and is prompt.  Thanks again Mitch , I will call this company for future work if and when needed!

After some very poorly-planned DIY plumbing on my part (which involved a pipe breaking and me getting an unwelcome under-sink face washing), Fallbrook Plumbing was able to get out within 48 hours and get me all patched up.  They swapped out both hot and cold water registers, re-attached my RO system and even made the piping for my fridge go through the RO system so now we have cleaner ice.  I threw them a curveball by asking them to install a touch faucet head (which another plumber just flatly refused to do, crazy enough) and they were in and out in a matter of a couple of hours.  Their prices are comparable to other plumbers and I was happy to pay to avoid another incident.  Great guys, intelligent, kind, professional, fast and thorough.

Great quick service.... pleasant to work with, got the job done in a timely fashion and all works very well... Nice to work with competent, pleasant folks! Reasonable cost as well...
Thanks, Guys... Larry Scott, Dr sc techn

I discovered my water heater was leaking and gave them a call after looking online for a local company.  I have no complaints about the prompt response to my dilemma especially since it was right before Christmas.  The owner came over within 2 hours, diagnosed the problem and got started right away.  He drained my water heater & a technician arrived to continue the process of disconnecting and disposing of the old water heater while the owner went to purchase a new one.  I was quoted a price of $1750 to replace & install a new unit.
Once it was determined that the extent of the leak damage necessitated removing a section of the platform underneath the water heater, it was cut out and the plan was to dry it out overnight with a fan and replace the wood hopefully the next day.  Upon closer inspection mold was discovered under the soggy platform.  The technician from Fallbrook Plumbing told me the mold was no big deal, that a scientist had told him that the health dangers of exposure to mold are greatly exaggerated and that he would treat the problem by spraying it with bleach and then leave a fan on the area to dry it out.  Replacement of the paltform & treatment were going to cost me approximately an additional $500.
Luckily my next door neighbor, a licensed contractor, came over at this time and stopped the work prior to mold spores being spread around my home by the fan.  I had another company treat the problem which included sealing off the affected areas, treatment, removal & replacement of drywall both in my laundry room and garage plus other required repairs.  I subsequently purchased a tankless water heater and am very happy with it and the plumbing company I chose to install it.  I ended up paying Fallbrook Plumbing $440 for the labor & materials used in removing & disposing of my old water heater plus opening up the wooden platform underneath. Funny thing though -- the narrative on the invoice I received mentions nothing of finding mold once the platform was opened up.  Both the owner and the technician were here.  The invoice just says my neighbor arrived and I decided to stop their work.

I would NOT recommend Fallbrook Plumbing unless you have a minor issue requiring a quick fix -- and certainly not if MOLD is involved.

Saturday morning. Backed up kitchen sink and high water bill. Mitch answered the phone, I didn't have to leave a message. He had one job ahead of me and was out in a couple of hours. He verified the issue with the sink and snaked it. He pressure tested the whole house, and the house separately from the irrigation. Identified minor leak with one toilet and replaced flapper seal and adjusted float level. Also identified minor leak with irrigation system. I was pleased with the promptness, professionalism, quality of the work. I believe I received a good value for what he charged me. I would use again.

Note: There is another company with a similar name called Fallbrook Rooter and Drain. Don't confuse the two. Fallbrook Rooter and drain is terrible.

I had a tankless water heater that was leaking. I contacted Fallbrook Plumbing and requested a quote to replace the old water heater with a traditional 40 Gal. water heater. I approved the work and Mitch scheduled me a few days later. Mitch was great to work with, showed up on time, was clearly knowledgeable and did an excellent job on the install. I highly recommend Fallbrook Plumbing.

All I have to say is wow Mitch you rock I had a 16 year old  water heater take a crap on me went and got a new one well when I went to put it in I ran into a whole bunch of issue  that where not in my comfort zone but thanks to Mitch and his crew they got it up and running and brought it up to code and cleaned  up the huge maze of pipes  of water lines now it look professional and cleans if you want the best work in Fallbrook you need to call these guys they are true craftsman very clean work done in a reasonable time and price and there welds on the copper piping are amazing and clean some of the best work I have ever seen thanks again Mitch for getting my home up and running and looking great

Mitch is awesome!! He was booked out for over a week but called me a couple days later and came by on his dime and helped me identify the problem. It wasn't even work he typically performs but he gave me solid advice and directed me to another company to complete the repairs.

I don't look forward to needing a plumber in the future, but these guys will get my business and I will tell everyone I know about this experience.

Excellent service! Professional, thorough and above all honest! We found our new plumber! Highly recommend Fallbrook Plumbing!!!

Mitch was very helpful. I had a problem with my toilet being clogged, had company so it was a problem to be down one toilet. Mitch was able to make a same day appointment within a two hour window. He is very knowledgeable, and got the job done for a good price. Will always use Fallbrook Plumbing from now on.

We have used Fallbrook Plumbing a few times and they just keep getting better! Fast, very honest, great work. We will continue to use them again and again. Best plumbing service we've ever had! Thank you Mitch for your service.

Fallbrook Plumbing is the best!  Mitch, the owner is always pleasant and informative.  Kyle and Hector are super committed to solving problems!!!  They are both professional and amicable!  Hats off to Mitch and his team!

Kiel just left our house after unplugging a toilet in record time. Working with Mitch over the phone was a breeze and it pays to shop. Fallbrook Plumbing quote was $30 less the the other quote I received. Thanks again Kiel and Mitch.

Always available on the phone, always makes themselves available. Super nice crew. Great and fair prices.

I have been a home owner for 7 years now and everything about being a home owner is AMAZING except when something breaks.  As a renter you don't worry about stuff like that because you just call your landlord and they deal with it at their expense.  Recently, last Saturday, my husband and I noticed a leak in the ceiling of our garage.  It appeared to be leaking for quit some time based on the drywall whole that had formed.  We immediately turned to yelp to find us a plumber because all the referrals we got from our family and friends were super sketchy and some way or another they were not satisfied with their work.  We found Fallbrook Plumbing and called Mitch.  They are a small family owned business locally and we always like to use our local guys.  I left him a message and he called me back the same day within a few hours to set up a time to come see us on Monday.  Mitch, the owner, showed up to our house at his promised time and took one look at our leak and new EXACTLY what it was!  My husband and I could not believe it!!!  In an hour and a half he was finished and he even gave us a name of a drywall contractor to help patch the whole.  Mitch thank you so much for coming out so quickly and for fixing our leak!  We are so grateful to have a trustworthy plumber that is local.  I recommend Fallbrook Plumbing to anyone that needs a trustworthy, reliable plumber!  Thank you Mitch!!!

Great service, called 5 plumbers for next day service he was only one called back@ 8am and was there in 2 hours. Nice person fast job honest work. I will call him again. Thanks Mitch Sichi for your service.

We had a leak & a 19 year old water heater that needed replacing asap. Our neighbor had used FB Plumbing several times & was very happy with their work. It was a few days before Christmas & Mitch was able to come out the next day. He replaced the water heater promptly & patched the leak until he could have someone come back after New Years. Hector came out, fixed the leak & changed out a pressure valve. Great experience from start to finish. Would not hesitate to refer to family & friends. Thanks Mitch!

Fallbrook Plumbing was great. My son broke the toilet and they were able to come out and resolve the problem within the hour. I have never encountered such a prompt, friendly and efficient plumber before. I was thrilled with the service and will definitely recommend them to friends!

Mitch and his crew are wonderful! They installed a vanity in my guest bathroom that required some construction and they did a beautiful job. They even cleaned up afterward, that doesnt always happen in construction. Mitch is a great guy and does his very best to fit you in.

Mitch is fantastic!  He arrived at my house after my frantic phone call in a time I can't post here for fear everyone will expect him to be that prompt!!  His name is going in my phone book, and I will refer him to anyone and everyone who has any kind of a plumbing issue.  Again, can't thank you enough, Fallbrook Plumbing!

We had a broken hot water line in our concrete foundation.We had two plumbers give us very expensive estimates for the repairs.We then called Fallbrook Plumbing who gave us an alternative way to repair it by using a pex line. This wound up saving us a lot of money. We will highly recommend them.

Mitch has been out to our home several times over various issues and he not only was very reasonable for the quality of work done, but a very nice, easy going guy that immediately puts you at ease.  I never feel like he is trying to sell me more than I actually need and everything is always nice a clean and tidy when he leaves.  Would recommend him to anyone looking for plumber they can trust.

I called Mitch because of the good reviews here and he agreed to come out same day.  When another job went a little long, Mitch called to say he'd still be by, but a bit later than agreed.  MItch and Kyle showed up with the right equipment to clear my main line sewer clog and had it narrowed down within and fixed within a few minutes.  Because I'd had another clog a year or so earlier due to tree roots that grew through a cracked ceramic pipe they cleared all the way to the street main sewer line to ensure the roots hadn't come back.  All this for a price that was lower than the lowest listing for several other plumbers doing the same job that popped up at HomeAdvisor.com.

Will definitely call again and recommend to others!

Fallbrook Plumbing is awesome! I called yesterday afternoon and spoke to Mitch, the owner. I needed my hot water heater replaced ASAP! It shorted out because of a leak (12 years old, electric). I was heading of of town the next day and would be gone for a while, didn't want to come home to a cold shower. He was immediately available to pretty much diagnose my problem over the phone in a matter of minutes. I even sent him a picture message so he could see my problem before he came. Mitch was able to schedule me the very next morning, first thing, so I could skip town and would have to postpone my plans! Plumber Kyle showed up promptly on-time with all the right tools and supplies need for the job. He even pointed out and fixed a rather large hole in my water closet behind my old heater that was for sure a welcome mat for pests. Kyle knocked out the installation in no time. He was very polite and took the time to make sure all was perfect. Extremely fast and reliable company. Highly recommended.  Thanks Fallbrook Plumbing!

Mitch has saved the day each and every time we have called.  He responses quickly, and always with a great heart, and great price!

Awesome service from Mitch and crew. They came in and solved our plumbing problem with professionalism and humor. I had contacted another plumber the day before and was left hanging. Mitch stepped in and took care of our problem in hours.  We could not have asked for better service and the price was reasonable.

Mitch was very personable and able to fix our problem in the bathroom.  Everyone said the price was reasonable but for me I did not think it was.   The part cost $28.00 online.  He was probably on the job for about 30mins and charged us $195.00.   Too bad I did not know that the part that need replacing could come out.  If I did I could of done the job myself and saved 165.00.   But now I know.......

We had an estimate from another company indicating there was a slab leak. After reviewing the leak myself, I noticed the leak was coming from the wall, not the floor.  I called Fallbrook Plumbing, spoke with Mitch and he offered to stop by that day. Mitch arrived, quickly assessed the leak to be a leak from a pipe in the wall. He also informed us that some plumbers exaggerate the extent of leaks to charge more. Mitch had it repaired in under an hour. Mitch was very professional and humble and a pleasure to work with.

Wow. What a breath of fresh air!  My wife and I started our addition and kitchen remodel earlier this year. We needed an experienced plumber to re-route existing lines, install new gas and water lines, and set up our new sinks, appliances, and fixtures. When Mitch first arrived to give us an estimate, our kitchen was already stripped down to the framing and subfloors so we had to provide him with the plans and specs. Not only was he able to provide an estimate on the spot, his price was very reasonable. During the work, Mitch and his crew were spectacular. The quality of the work was outstanding.  Even when we had last minute changes, he was able to provide us with reasonable change order prices that didn't kill our budget. Now that we are done, looking back I have to say that out of all of the contractors we hired for our project, Fallbrook Plumbing was by far the most professional and pleasant to work with. I highly recommend Fallbrook Plumbing!

Wow!  An outstanding, reasonably priced, dependable plumber.  With the two good reviews previously written, we decided to give Mitch a call.  He was prompt, pleasant, and honest.  I thought I would have to replace a gate valve, but Mitch showed me that the gate valve to the house was fine but that I needed a new water pressure valve.  Mystery toilet malfunction corrected with ease.  No flat rate service call fee, and I've found the best plumber in Fallbrook.

Fallbrook plumbing has been great with the repair work in my showers. Both times I called, they were prompt in getting back to me, showed up on time, and were very reasonably priced. I would use them for all my plumbing needs.

I received a text early Monday morning from my tenant that the Pilot light was out on the water heater and consequently no hot water.   My heating/air guy came that evening but didn't have the parts, told me to call a plumber.  I called Fallbrook Plumbing early Tuesday.  Mitch called me right back and had Kyle meet me at the rental at 8 am.  He cleaned out the clogged gas line and had it working in about 40 minutes.  Didn't try to sell me. Very reasonable service charge.  Now I have a new plumber I can count on for the future.

Fallbrook Plumbing is reliable, trustworthy, and has amazing customer service. I had  multiple problems at my new condo and Mitch Sichi went above and beyond my expectations. Everything in my new condo works amazingly. He drove all the way down to San Diego to help me out. I will never turn to another Plumber as long as he is around. I have now referred him to 4 other people with problems and they feel the same way I do about this company. If you want affordable and a company that will give you a finished product, this is the way to go!! 5 Stars!!!

Couldn't agree more with the review of Jisehte S. Especially in emergency situations Mitch comes to the rescue. Very few in business today give even close to the quality service as Fallbrook Plumbing.

I randomly selected Fallbrook Plumbing from a search and was Very Lucky to have found Mitch, we had been gone awhile and had a varied of plumbing needs, Mitch is a very easy going man who puts you at ease right away..we had a hot water issue, it was simply not turned on, a quick solution and one he didn't try to pull the wool over our eyes, all other jobs were taken care of in a timely manner and his sweet natured personality made him fun to have around, i forgot his appt time and had cleaned out my closet that morning and our bathroom floor was covered with boots and purses,, i howled when i went in to check on him and saw the mess he had to navigate, he assured me fall cleaning was a good thing )...I'd Highly recommend Fallbrook Plumbing and Mitch for any future plumbing needs..Susie Cosner

Fallbrook Plumbing is one of the most reliable, trustworthy and pleasant businesses we have ever worked with. We have used Mitch Sichi for various plumbing issues for nearly 8 years and each and every time, the problems are resolved quickly, efficiently and professionally.  Charges are appropriate and reasonable.  There is no doubt that we will use Fallbrook Plumbing for years to come and we have no problem recommending their services!
