Best Businesses in San Diego, CA

Alex added valves to our tankless water heater and descaled it. It had been installed without the valves which made it impossible to service. Very happy.

The skinny: Responsive, friendly, efficient - TOTALLY exceeded expectations, and more than reasonable pricing. You want John on your list of who to call for your plumbing issues. As good as a customer service experience gets. Seriously.

The story: We woke up this morning to water gushing out of a pipe next to the house and pooled water down the slope on our street corner (ostensibly from our house). It was 6:30am and we do not have a regular plumber. So we called our neighbors who gave us Happy Plumbing & also Bill Howe for 24/7 coverage. Given the time, we called Bill Howe first, where they were more excited about how we got their name than the problem we were having. By then it was 6:45am, and Bill Howe asked if we wanted it dispatched for after hours where it will cost time and a half, or if we wanted to wait until the office opened at 7am. Since we'd immediately turned off water to the house (pre-shower, pre-teeth brushing, pre- make sure the dogs have enough water for the day), I was anxious to get things going - I asked if they'd call at 7, or if I'd be put in the call queue. The Bill Howe answering service said I'd probably get a call around 8am, so I opted for the pricier after hours dispatch. When I hadn't heard anything after 20 minutes, I called Happy Plumbing and Drains.

John picked up right away; I explained our problem. He said he was right down the street and could swing by to take a look, but that he had another big job that he'd need to get to (huge points for responsiveness *and* setting expectations). With this plan, he could come by & take a look, and - since we were on a slope with water leaking at the curb - if we needed to call CPL to find the leak source, we could get that going (score more points for strategic planning). I called Bill Howe to let them know I had things covered. (It was 7:15am and they hadn't gotten to my message yet.)

John & his assistant, Neil, arrived around 7:30am, took a thorough look, and diagnosed the problem - it wouldn't need CPL, which was awesome, and it was a straightforward fix. At this point I'd expected them to run off to their other job, and I could at least be happy knowing that we knew what the problem was and they'd be back later to fix it. Nope - John stayed and fixed it. AND they were out by 8:15am (more points for efficiency) and off to their next job.

So that's the scoop. They cleaned everything up, were SUPER reasonably priced, and were knowledgeable and professional. Put Happy Plumbing & Drains on your list of people to call when the house breaks. You'll be stoked you did!!

I've used Joyce Plumbing twice within the last month. I needed a new garbage disposal and valves replaced. They were really quick to respond and set up appointments. I was even able to get help on a holiday weekend.

Denver came and did the work. He was efficient, friendly and did an excellent job. And I really appreciate his graciousness. I would definitely call them again. Thanks so much Joyce Plumbing! ;)

Thank goodness for these guys.  We bought a money pit a little over a year ago, and plumbing was a challenge from the beginning.  After a couple of botched repair jobs I found Willis Brothers on Yelp.  They saved our lives several times.  I know that sounds dramatic, but that is how it felt.  We were literally drowning in repairs!!  They are super responsive, are experts in their craft and are very professional and honest.  From a big job to a small fix - call them.  We highly recommend them for your plumbing needs.

Even though I won't be employing the company to run some new lines due of a slab leak I experienced, I still wanted to give a review. I stopped my own slab leak issue and then temporarily rerouted the cold water supply through my backyard hose bib using some pex pipe.

The business offers reasonable costs and is highly responsive. The two men who came over were extremely helpful, polite, and informed. The explanation and quote that David Starr and Trenton gave me for what I wanted were both excellent. Together, we had a wonderful time. I felt at ease with what needed to be done and how David and Trenton would approach the task because they are excellent individuals. They informed me of the potential cost, and I will thereafter get a precise quote sent to me.

On that particular day, I received several bids for the same task, but regrettably I chose another business. If I had to pick, they would have been my second choice. I won't mention the company in 3rdPlace. Funny enough, the third-place finisher is a business I have previously worked with, and they are also excellent.

Thanks for the help R&R

I like that you guys send info on when the employee will arrive, a short bio and photo. This is great and other companies should do that as well. It makes people feel more comfortable with answering their door if they know who the person is and looks like that will need to enter their household.

Bonus kudos goes out to the coolest truck accessories on the work truck. I'm a huge Disney and Star Wars fan!

Jerry came on a Saturday without charging me an arm and a leg. He is polite, professional and gets the job done! Highly recommend his services.

First off I gotta say these guys are very friendly and respectful of their clients. The first thing they did was to lay down protection product to protect the floors.  Communication was key, they kept me informed each step of the way of them replacing the galvanized pipe with copper. Also had them replace and install 2 new toilets and kitchen faucet. They kept the area nice and tidy and were always punctual and engaging with us. Water pressure in the house was a problem they fixed and now it runs amazing. I highly recommend.

Jay was really knowledgeable and helpful. Our kitchen line was backed up and Jay was able to fix it after working on it for a few minutes. I called him in the morning and he was able to get here within a couple hours, it was great same day service. Would highly recommend Accolade Plumbing for their professional service, timely manner, and efficiency. Will definitely save this number for any future needs.

A friend of mine in Bonita recommended Nathan C (661) 839-4273. She found him on the Nextdoor app, he had great reviews and he didn't disappoint.  He's been out to our home in Poway for some smaller plumbing repairs and we found him to be fair and efficient. Last week he came out because I could hear water running but we didn't see anything. He traced it to an area where we had a prior slab leak last year. He advised me to call the plumber that repaired the leak to ask if they would guarantee the new leak. He also gave us a quote to repair or repipe if we needed him to return. Even though the new leak was in the same area, it was a different pipe so we had Nathan do the work.
We found him to be fast, efficient and affordable. We highly recommend him!

Edgar and his team came out two days to do plumbing work in our home after a water leak. They installed a tub, replaced pipe, moved a shower head, and fixed the flange on our toilet. Edgar was very knowledgeable and professional. The work was done in a timely manner. We definitely recommend working with Edgar! Thank you for your help in repairing our bathroom!

They were great, showed up on time,wore a mask the entire time and fixed our issue. Joe was great and I won't hesitate to use them again. Prices were fair

Great landscaping comapny.  very responsive and proactive in maintaining landscape.  would definitely recommend

He did work on my kitchen transforming from flourescent to a different light fixture.  He is hard working and I am so happy with the results. He charges reasonable as well.

Large amount of water was dripping from a shower in our rental condo which has 2 little children.  My husband tried to fix it; but ended up shutting the water off completely for the night.  It was urgent to find a plumber right away.  We called Bob early in a morning.  Even though Bob was busy, he rearrange his jobs, came to the condo & fixed the problem within 30 minutes.  We should have called him from the beginning.  Call Bob if you need a honest & reasonable professional!

Tarpy is absolutely amazing!  All their people are extremely knowledgeable, professional, and courteous.  We had all our AC ducting replaced, and their work is impeccable.  Nicholas, Manny, and Dawson were awesome!  We loved them so much that we had them put in a new water heater and service all our plumbing as well.  Anthony, Brandon, Adam, Chris, and Paul were phenomenal!   There was a lot of work to be done, but they were able to complete it in 1 day--there were 5 trucks in front of our house!  We've worked with a lot of AC and plumbing companies over the years, and without question Tarpy is the best.  It is hard to find a company that has top notch employees and excellent customer service.  The rest of the world should learn from Tarpy.  Thanks so much!

This company is true to its name. They saved me a ton of time and headache! If I ever have future issues, I won't hesitate to call them.

The installed water heater was only 3.5-ish yeas old started leaking.  I called Ely and explained the situation and in turn Ely provided a replacement water since the unit is under warranty.  Castillo Works Plumbing installed the first water heater and did a fine job and will also say that the water did not leak do to the plumber's installation.  However, Ely himself did the install this time and did a fantastic job.  You can tell that Ely takes great pride in work and can make a dismal situation better.

Now down to the price; Ely quoted me the labor and that was the price.  Castillo Works Plumbing did not try to up-sale or over quote the job.  The price is fair and better than other outfits you will see out there including the commercials.
I've used Castillo Works Plumbing in the past for Pressure Valves, Clean-Out access and other jobs like extending the water lines and drain for a sink in the garage and I have never been disappointed or over charged.

I highly recommend Castillo Works Plumbing and Ely's pride in craftsmanship.

Had minor plumbing leak above home hot water heater while i was at work. Wife called Anderson Plumbing and repairman came after hours so there was $99 charge. Ok so I can live with that. I got home about time repairman got there and  I was then informed the repair fee would be $367 + tax to replace fittings. I basically kicked the guy out of my house after calling the company a ripoff. I then did repair on my own for $15 and an hour of my time including trip to Home Depot. Shame on Anderson Plumbing!!

Had a blocked toilet that I had just paid a private plumber for just 4 days earlier. Plumber wanted to charge me to come out and needed to rent expensive equipment. Andersen came out on a Sunday, no charge to come out ( Roto Rooter quoted $150 to come out during regular hours and an extra $78 for after hours)
They said I needed a camera inspection so no charge until they fix it and then only $67 with a smile , kindness and excellent customer service. I will definitely recommend to everyone!
