Best Plumbing Services in San Diego, CA

We have been working on our kitchen remodel since July and trying to save $ by doing the plumbing and electrical ourselves.  Lo and behold, we stumbled upon a problem that we didn't feel comfortable attacking and gave Hueyen a call.  He answered the phone on a Sunday night, too!  He came out the very next morning to take a look and for him there was a simple solution. We had gone to Home Depot and even a professional plumbing supply store in San Diego to see what the experts thought.  No one had the right solution and thought we were in a lot of trouble with having to redo our kitchen design around this plumbing issue.  In just a mere 5 minutes, Hueyen said no worries--he could have it done in 45 min. and even had the parts in his truck.  We were in the middle of sizing a countertop around the plumbing and were worried that the location and direction of the pipes would compromise the how far back the cutout for the sink could go .  We asked him if he could coordinate a 2nd visit around the day the countertop guy was to arrive  and he graciously came by again and did the necessary preliminary work to make sure everything would fit properly under the sink.  We told him that until the countertop was in, he would have to make a 3rd trip out to do the final connections.  Nicest guy in the world, he didn't charge us for the 1st two trips and by the time we were ready to finally get the sink in and have running water, it was Memorial Day weekend.  He was fully booked that Saturday and off for the holiday. My husband said Hueyen did the hard part and he could take it from there, but thought it only fair that he get the job since he had already invested so much time with us.  Hueyen said no problem and said that if we wanted to finish it up without him, it would be fine.  Hueyen is the best!  Honest,hardworking and reliable.  I will definitely call him if I ever have any plumbing needs and even though he did not charge us for any of his visits or advice, we will be sending him a check in the mail (Hueyen, sorry it took so long),

We called them based on their great Yelp reviews and I am pleased to add another FIVE Star rating.  Highly encourage you to use them.  Fair pricing, upfront costing/estimate and work well done.  Clean, professional and friendly.  Hat tip to Ryan Nash for taking good care of us.

I had Collins  Plumbing install  a hot water heater a few weeks ago in my garage they did a great job outstanding service the plumber knew what he was doing I would highly recommend them to anyone for plumbing work

This company provided excellent service when the valves to my washer went out.  Reasonably priced.  They went above board and moved my new washer into the laundry for me.  I will be calling them again!

Thought one thing was wrong with my toilet, turned out it was just some loose bolts. Didn't charge the whole price since materials weren't needed! Will cal again if I need them!

Fred has been our handy AC repair guy for years now. I found him here in yelp. He has taught me much about AC units and troubleshooting so i do t have to call him every time our old ac stops working( even though he wouldn't mind helping). This time we needed him for our biggest job yet... a slab leak. I felt the floor hot on a Sunday and by Thursday the size of the floor heat grew, the floor was hissing between our floor boards and it sounded like water was on in the walls. Eek. I turned off our water heater and the noises stopped.  I have him in my contacts list so I called him up and he was at our house in a few hours to confirm what I was hoping I was wrong about. He did his thing gave me all of the options and the ones that he recommended that caused the least amount of destruction to our house.  He called his guy at Express dry and since he didn't answer and left him a message... he wanted to make sure it was a seamless transition from him to the mitigation/ drying team. Once we decided what we wanted to do, he told me he'd be at our house the next day with more guys and he would jump loop all the plumbing and gave a very fair price. He showed up the next day at 630 am to get started, he and his crew finished the house in a day and a few hours!... working 2 -14 hour days .  We never will use any other plumber! He's incredible and he does his own work. He has a strong work ethic and most importantly , he's HONEST and fair and runs a successful business. He's practically family! Thanks Fred! Not to mention we are fond of his name as one of our family members has his name too!

Our community hired TL to redo the cast iron pipes in our garages. We looked at multiple plumbers and decided on TL because of their thorough bid, prompt replies to our messages, and a reasonable price. Some plumbers gave us outrageous bids without any details, however TL was extremely professional and prompt.

The specific plumber we worked with was Manny. Great guy, he responds to all our texts, he let us know promptly about any issues that came up during the re-piping, including problems and we were able to solve each one as they came up.

Manny and his team was also prompt about the post install testing and tightening any pipes as needed.

TL will be the first choice plumber for our future needs.

Eric and his team were great! I called them, left a message explaining the problem I was having with my garbage disposal, they called me back a few hours later and gave me an easy fix to try over the phone and it worked! Will definitely use them again for any future issues. Highly recommend!

I called them because my kitchen sink was plugged up.  As promised, they came within 75 minutes of my call.  Initial estimate was $355 until I mentioned there is a $77 coupon for unclogging a sink if it has a clean out, which it does.  He agreed to that price BUT the first pass with a small snake didn't work, so he had to get the bigger one, with the bigger price tag of $355.  And, it may not have even worked as he couldn't tell if the line was clear.  

Then, he recommended jetting the line with a high pressure device that cleans the pipes.  The price for that you might ask.  Well, only $1200 and he happened to have the tool on his truck!  And, he recommended doing this yearly as part of maintenance!  

I should have told him to be on his way but I was stuck and needed the kitchen sink to drain.  What a rip off.

Matt and Mark exemplify what all service providers should strive to be - skilled craftsman, hard-working, reliable, courteous and professional. We had them handle the plumbing for our kitchen and bathroom remodel ... now we're having them redo plumbing throughout the house. These guys are our new go-to plumbers.

Our water heater stopped working and Express Plumbing was able to come out within an hour to provide an estimate. They replaced the water heater that same day. They were the only quote I received, but from what I've heard from friends who replaced their water heater Express Plumbing is very reasonably priced.

Armando did a great job trying to save me money before replacing my faucet.  Then took a quick look at my issue with my toilet.  Talk about quick and efficient!  Thank you!

I would definitely recommend She Fixed It!!!!  Kelley was awesome, she came in with the list of items we needed fixed and was ready to go!  She is very positive, personable and most important she knows what she is doing.      

Will be using She Fixed It again, in the near future for other projects!  

Thanks for the amazing work!

The plumber they sent was great! They kept in communication with me the whole time to let me know when he would arrive, pricing was more than fair, and customer service was just awesome. My job was a simple toilet replacement and they ensured that the job was done right before leaving. I will definitely be using Troy Plumbing again!!

Omar and his team were so great to work with. Leaks are never fun to deal with, but they were super communicative and helpful. Hopefully I'll never need them again - but if I, or anyone else I know, ever do - I'll call them in a heartbeat. Thanks, Omar!!

I've used their services twice now and these guys do an amazing job!

I was recommended by my home inspector to get a few things checked out plumbing-wise. I had a fast closing date so when I called Plumbing Tree I was very satisfied when they were able to send a plumber out within a few hours. Alex came out and was very knowledgeable and informative with everything he was inspecting. He also made the extra effort to ensure the inspection report was sent to us the next day (weekend), typically it would have been sent the following week.

I decided to follow-up with their list of recommendations to bring my house up to current code. They gave me a call and scheduled another same-day visit! This time Jamie came over and installed several items. He was also very professional, and explained to me all the work he was performing.

Overall, I had a great experience with this company and impressed with their customer service. I'm for sure going to give these guys a call for any of my future plumbing needs!

The Company was very responsive and great value.  Steven was fantastic; diagnosing and correcting the drainage issue we were having.  Would highly recommend!

Extremely professional and great customer service!  When our toilet and tub got clogged and almost overflowed with sewage water, these guys were quick to respond and fix the issue.  They took the time to explain everything and what they were going to do before they got started.  Not only did they fix the problem quickly, but took the extra step to clean up the mess in our toilet and tub!  Would highly recommend them for any plumbing needs and will definitely be reaching out to them for any future services!

I was looking to install a water purification system and a tankless hot water system and in order to provide me a quotation, they wanted to charge me $25 as a service call....to give me a quote for over $10,000 worth of work?  No way.

BEWARE. CHOOSE SOMEONE ELSE! Update to prematurely posted reviews (3 different, amiable service reps, each rated highly as a courtesy; posted BEFORE knowing each had failed the straightforward task of unclogging a sewer pipe). This review has been held back to ensure posted as unemotionally as possible. The 1st tech came out, cleared the clogged drain (sent drain-snake through the P-Trap under the vanity sink, after trying unsuccessfully to snake the tub drain, mentioning something about pipe circumference being too small for the tool he had with him). He did NOT attempt snaking the toilet pipe (source of the clog)- stating he preferred to avoid removing the toilet, whenever possible. Before leaving, he advised our bathtub was draining very slowly, suggested we check the drain for hair clogs and remove, if found. ??! In hindsight, we should have pointed out to tech #1 that the clog was likely at or BEFORE pipes under the toilet, versus in pipes AFTER the toilet (ie: under sink)-- though his comment re: our slow-draining tub and lack of evidence for the source of clog (no answer, when asked) should have been his clue that the job was incomplete, as he is the plumbing professional. A couple of days later BOTH bathroom toilets  backed up / overflowed, both showers/tubs slow draining (initially only one toilet was clogged; other bathroom was usable). A 2nd tech came out and re-ran the snake- this time through the cleanout BEFORE bathroom drains. Once completed, he showed us the source of the clog-- a ball of tangled, matted hair (about the size of a small mouse).  He mentioned having a heck of a time winding in the snake  and stated that it seemed to be caught on something.  He was correct... the tool WAS caught on something: our main sewer pipe's backflow valve flapper- which was snapped off and dragged back through the pipe before wedging / stuck in place. Unbeknownst to us at the time, this was the cause of a NEW, far more serious pipe clog. Within a day or so, all toilets, showers and tubs backed up--  AGAIN.  A 3rd tech came out, repeated the drain-snake process, removed the toilet in 1st bathroom /replaced the wax ring and stated everything was repaired. Not trusting this to be true, I asked him why I could see standing water just a few inches below the grate of the 2nd bathroom shower's drain. He stated this was normal / ok.  (FYI- standing pipe-wayer is not normal, not ok...). After a 4th backup of both toilets just a few days after tech #3 declared the problem was resolved (in error), we reluctantly requested a 4th tech to resolve the issue. We received a callback from Burtech's owner, Bill, who mentioned something about our cost to his company, adding he would be bringing a camera to see why clogged (maybe should have done after 1st fail?). I refrained from pointing out the inconvenience his team had caused our family (now almost 2 weeks without working plumbing)  least of which-   hassle of cleaning up repeated toilet overflows.  Owner Bill showed up with his camera (again-- 4th service call) seeming irritable / exasperated /  put-out to be here. He sent his camera down the drain; soon after, showed crystal clear images of our broken flapper part-  tightly wedged in the main sewer pipe, stating he'd never seen anything like it before.  (I couldn't make this stuff up... !)
Going back to the comment made by tech #2... (...had a heck of time reeling in the drain-snake; seemed stuck), Bill's insistence that he's never seen this before rings hollow, imo. I've since asked MANY local plumbers to share their opinions re: Bill's comment about broken the flapper. Responses have been unanimous: smells like bullsh@t. Owner Bill then quoted us a whopping $2700.00 to repair (their error) which would entail cutting / removing slabs of co create from our walkway in order for them to locate and remove the stuck flapper part, replace with new parts and installation of cleanout pipes for future use, as needed. When asked why he didnt use the existing cleanouts, he stated we didn't have any (incorrect).
Owner Bill took no accountability for his technicians' errors. Tried negotiating... Bill offered to knock off a few hundred dollars from his quoted $2700.00 estimate-- provided I dig workspace (4 feet+ down to the the backflow valve) AND purchase the replacement parts. ?! When digging, I located 2 cleanouts (owner Bill stated these did not exist).   After 3 weeks w/out plumbing;  no return calls from Bill @ Burtech (expected he might at very least check in, to ensure issues caused by his team were resolved- considering the multiple calls made to him in which I was CLEARLY upset...). In end, went w/ someone else, who corrected the plumbing error(s) in an afternoon-- charged a small fraction of the amount proposed in Bill's (greedy) estimate. Hoping this review may prevent others from having a similar experience.
