*** 2025 review #34 *** We got ripped off. Smooth talker, cracks jokes but beware. Don't trust Craig. He overcharges big time. We hired him to fix a water leak but he managed to sell us on a supposedly "best toilet" and charged us an extra $100 just on the hardware -- that's his 25% profit when he claims he gets the "best contractor price". And his expensive hourly rate.m, that's twice or more than the HONEST plumber we found later. Craig did a CHEAP job on the leak fixing. Our HONEST plumber we hired after told us it's a SHITTY job, cheap materials and not even color coded for hot and cold water. We had to have ALL of Craig's $1,000+ leak fix job REDONE. Let's not even get into his outrageous quote $10k+ just to remove an old bathtub.... Glad we realized his shady business tactics and fired him after he scammed us on the first job to fix leak and replace an old toilet. We welcomed him and his helper into our home when we had a major water leak crisis. We even brought them lunch on the day they worked for 3 hours at the house. And this is how we get treated by Craig, we realized when we got his quote to replace an old bathtub. You've been warned. Do your homework. Get other quotes. Talk to other plumbers. And thank me later. Craig will lie to your face and 100% rip you off. Sad to say, he gives good honest plumbers a bad name. We should have suspected something was off... given how "QUICK" Craig was to reply, quick to schedule, and even so quick to "respond" to a candid review based on a real experience after we got ripped off. His true colors now are showing. Craig must have lots of time on his hands, waiting for the next household to scam. Don't trust his "5-star reviews"... we did and higher regret it. You've been warned. STAY AWAY!!! Stay tuned. Still working with Yelp "contractor guarantee", submitted all proof of Craig's SHADY business to try and get some of our hard-earned money back. read more

I recently had a plumbing issue at my home, I was fortunate enough to remember that we previously lived next to a plumber who ended up moving away. I decided to look him up and long behold he's still around. I decided to call him. Craig and his team were able to resolve our plumbing issue the same day, what a relief. I highly recommend Craig for any plumbing needs! Thank you again!! read more

I can't put into word how awesome Craig is! Had one plumbing problem hit me early in the morning and Craig was able to squeeze me in the SAME day. He was able to find the root cause and was very straightforward with pricing. I seriously lucked out with Craig because him being straightforward I felt this project could've been way priced but he was very fair with regard to the problem. Will def refer to friends and family! read more

Craig's Plumbing - Ridiculous amount of tree roots that we had no idea was affecting our plumbing. Job security for Craig! - Plumbing Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I've worked with Craig and his team for plumbing issues many times over the years, and I couldn't be more pleased with the service they provide. Every time, they consistently deliver high-quality work, and their attention to detail is second to none. Whether it's a minor repair or a larger job, Craig and his crew approach everything with the same level of professionalism. One of the things I appreciate most is their punctuality. They always show up on time, ready to work, and never leave a mess behind. It's clear they respect our time and our home, which isn't something you find with every service these days. On top of that, their employees are always courteous and respectful, making the whole experience as stress-free as possible. What truly sets Craig apart is the integrity of his team. I never feel like I'm being upsold on unnecessary repairs or services. Their honest, straightforward approach gives me peace of mind that I'm making the best decisions for my home. My wife also feels extremely comfortable when Craig and his staff are in the house, even if she's home alone. That level of trust is rare, and it speaks volumes about the kind of people Craig hires. It's comforting to know we're in good hands. In short, Craig and his team are everything you'd want in a plumbing service--honest, reliable, respectful, and highly skilled. My biggest worry is that Craig will retire :) read more

Craig is a hero! We discovered the sound of running water through the walls and he very quickly was able to identify the issue and cap off the gushing pipe. The turnaround to install new pipes and a full shower faucet was super fast. Not only is Craig an incredibly talented plumber, but he's a kind and honest guy. I've encountered a handful of plumbers in the past and have never felt more comfortable than I did with Craig. He's trustworthy and clearly knows how to act fast in a plumbing emergency. Craig is THE guy to call, don't waste time or money with anybody else. read more

After finding water in our garage coming from an exposed cold water pipe we called Craig, who haa previously handled routine repairs and maintenance of toilets and water heater he came within an hour and clamped the pipe to stop the water and returned the next day to do a full repair, revising the converging pipes at the place where the new piece replaced the corroded portion. For responsive and skillful attention to this distressing surprise situation Craig deserves all five of these stars. read more

I recently called Craig for a second opinion on a plumbing project that was initially quoted at $20,000. And similar to Allison G.'s review below, we were told we would have to excavate a huge part of our front house. Alot of my experience is similar to her review! From the moment he arrived, Craig was professional, knowledgeable, and efficient. He took the time to walk both me and my tenant through every step of his process, explaining exactly what he was looking at and why it mattered. This transparency not only helped us feel comfortable, but also demonstrated Craig's integrity and expertise. Craig solved the issues without these massive excavations that were recommended by original plumbing company at a fraction of the cost. Especially when dealing with a house that's over a century old, trust is crucial. I'm happy to say Craig more than delivered on that front. His thorough approach and willingness to keep us informed at every turn made all the difference. I cannot speak highly enough of Craig's services and would recommend him to anyone in need of a reliable, honest plumber. read more

Have you ever encountered a service so exceptional that you're tempted to keep it a secret just for yourself? That's exactly how I feel about Craig! Ever since we bought our house, we've dealt with recurring plumbing issues and have seen around 20 different plumbers. None have matched Craig's combination of thoroughness, reliability, cooperation, accommodation, diligence, speed, and honesty. Craig is the quintessential professional you can trust to accurately diagnose your plumbing problems, provide a fair quote, and resolve the issues promptly. We plan to rely on Craig for all our plumbing needs for as long as we're homeowners! read more

I had a water heater replaced and I found my Craig's Plumbing! Craig was a pleasure to work with, and I highly recommend him! read more

Craig did an excellent job, clearing away roots that had caused persistent sewer blockages and backups for months. He was efficient, professional and forthcoming, and walked us through the entire process. Craig was our second opinion after we were told we needed to break our concrete driveway and replace the entire sewer line. Instead, Craig cleaned the lines, cut all the root intrusion and cleared a clog that that two plumbers said could not be done, saving us thousands of dollars in the process. We are having him do more work for us, and I am sure that he will continue to be our trusted plumber for any issues that come up in the future. read more

Craig did a great job. He fixed my disposal and showed me which replacement part I needed. Fair pricing and very friendly. Nice to work with someone local and not a large chain. I will definitely be using his services the next time I need a plumber. read more

Craig and his awesome assistant came to my home to install a new kitchen faucet. They were on time, called 1/2 hour ahead to let me know they're on their way, arrived clean and got down to business with the job. Within 45 minutes I had a beautiful, new faucet in my kitchen! Craig is a really nice guy with a great sense of humor and knows his stuff. Extra points for spending his off time racing trucks in the desert with disabled veterans to show them a much-needed good time. I wouldn't hesitate to use his services again. read more

Outstanding service and very fair, reasonable pricing! The plumbing at our West Hollywood residence backed up due to tree roots growing in the pipes. The first plumber we had out quoted us $33K and told us they would have to rip up the street to clear the roots all the way to the city lines. Thank goodness we called Craig for a second opinion. He came out and cleared the roots - without having to rip up the street - in just hours at a fraction of the price. Craig is a straight shooter, kept me informed the whole time he was here, and showed me videos that verified his work. I highly recommend his services! read more

Our existing water main to house and garden was leaking due to a prior shoddy job done by our gardener. We called Craig, and he was able to stop by to provide his professional assessment on how the pipes can be redone. The next day, Craig and his team was here early morning to start the project. Craig's Plumbing redid the main water manifold with copper pipes and also added a shut-off valve to the garden. The finished work was beautiful and obviously, no more leaks! Thank you Craig! read more

Craig's Plumbing - redid water manifold with all copper pipes, added shutoff valve to garden. Beautifully done! - Plumbing Near Me - Los Angeles, California

We were totally stressed out. Our toilets and sinks were not working, gurgling after the city did their biannual hydro-jetting of the city's main drain. We found Craig on Yelp; he had the most positive reviews and now we know why. Excellent response time, literally in one hour letting us know he was on his way. He walked up, immediately found the clear out drain, opened it and found the clogged pipe. He cleared our lines that day. Followed up with a camera to be sure all tree roots were not blocking the main drain and will return in six months for a re-inspection with a price tag we could afford. His expertise, integrity and punctuality are true to his reviews. So reassuring to have a good plumber nearby. read more

easy to get in touch with, and always available with reasonable solutions. If he can't help you, he'll tell you or recommend you to someone who can. read more

It was late in the day yesterday and I had to leave town on Wednesday came back yesterday and forgot that I was bleaching shirts in my kitchen sink. Put the plug upside down. Called Craig and he was amazing! read more

EXCELLENT SERVICE!!!! Craig came out twice and helped us address the leak in the shower. He was clearly very knowledgeable, professional and was a TREMENDOUS HELP!!! The issue has been resolved and we wouldn't hesitate to hire him again. THANK YOU!! read more

Craig is prompt, thorough, and honest. We've used him a few times now and he's great. He's moved pipes and toilets for us and repaired and replaced a variety of pipes under the floor. He also installed several new fixtures in the kitchen and a bathroom. Strongly recommend! read more

I never actually used Craig's Plumbing services but when I reached out, I got a call back rather quickly. I was given recommendations and advice from a really nice dude -- I assume Craig, himself -- & rather than wasting my money by contacting someone who wasn't employed by my landlord (our plumber couldn't make it to my place for another few days), he asked me some questions and then offered advice and wished me luck. Extremely grateful for saving me the money and being so considerate. read more

Craig of Craig's Plumbing rocks the plumbing house!! We had a gas line leak. Craig found it and replaced the gas lines, ( I have a pool heater too) . The gas lines were old old. Installed earthquake valve and shutoff valves as well. He tested the lines before and after, used high quality materials, arrived on time everyday , got the job done quickly and charged a fair price for his efforts. Craig has a great sense of humor and is pleasant while he works. High high attention to all details. Simply the best!!! read more

Craig was such a big help when the 60 yr. old tub drain gave out. If you're looking for an honest, straight shooter plumber he's your guy. His prices are fair and his experience is priceless especially with the older/ pre 60's houses. It's getting harder to find good /honest plumbers these days so I'll be sticking with him when it comes to plumbing issues as well as referring him to friends and family. Btw this is my first review ever. Thanks Craig! read more

Quick, friendly and quality service. Fair and reasonable cost. Will definitely look to Craig for help again the next time the need arises.

The best plumber I have encountered in many years. He is very knowledgeable, and pleasant to work with. He gave me a ETA, and arrived earlier. He fixed the problem that a prior plumber caused, for less than the original guy. I would strongly suggest you give him a call when you need the job done right! read more

Craigs Plumbing was exceptional. He was knowledgeable and personal. He showed as promised. Accessed the situation. Took action. Resolved the problem. I would highly recommend them. read more

We found Craig on Yelp for an emergency repair. He was polite, prompt, and resolved our issue quickly. We recommend him and will use him again when needed. read more

Not a corporation, a man who answers his phone while driving his truck home from a job. He came by the next morning (I called him at 7:PM) at 8:AM, looked at the work I had already done (w/ a compliment), assessed, advised, performed, and all is well. Hot showers are not a right; they have to be earned! read more

Been using Craig's services for over 2 years. He's fixed shoddy plumbing work from previous "contractors", he's done our annual tankless heater maintenance. And resolved our self induced plumbing issues. And a re-model of the main bathroom that included jet-tub install and thermostatic controlled shower-bath unit. He's last service included a complete pipe cleanup using the hydro-jet. His service has always been the best and I am not looking forward to the day he retires. read more

Took a chance from a yelp search. Craig was very responsive, careful and timely, and he did a great job in half the time and half the time price of the previous plumber who did the same job in the same week. Will definitely use again and refer friends and family! So glad we found Craig. He is also very funny read more

Apartment building had a leak above in carport. No idea what caused it. Turned out to be a rotted kitchen drainage pipe. Craig's plumbing came one day after I called them. Team showed up on time, professional and courteous. Found the problem right away and fixed it for a reasonable price. Stellar company! couldn't ask for better service! Will be using them for future plumbing needs. read more

The worst day ever! On Memorial weekend I discovered that our hot water heater was not working, we had people coming over for a BBQ! Getting a plumber on a Holiday weekend was going to be expensive! When I called Craig's Plumbing he warned me that they could not get parts over the weekend but he talked me through lighting the hot water heater and it worked! No chagre... just a super nice guy who saved my w read more

Called Craig's Plumbing after another plumbing company I called for a different issue found water under the house beneath a bathroom. They said a broken pipe in that bathroom was causing the problem. I decided to get a second opinion, and after searching that evening, I called Craig's Plumbing due to the positive reviews. Craig said he would come out the next day. He showed up first thing in the morning with a crewmember. He got right into the crawlspace to assess the situation. Craig discovered the leak was coming from a broken pipe in the kitchen, not the bathroom. After coming out, he showed me the videos he took, then proceeded to walk me through his thought process -- how he discovered the broken pipe, what problems the leak was causing under there, what he thought caused the break, how he determined this problem definitely wasn't a pipe in the bathroom -- and then gave me a breakdown on how to best repair the problem. He gave me an affordable estimate, saying he'd look to finish the work the same day, but if not then definitely the next day. Craig was incredibly informative and honest about the situation, so I hired him on the spot, and he and his crew member got right to work. They replaced 2 broken pipes leading from the kitchen, installed a new clean out, worked to remove water, and set up fans to help the rest evaporate. As they worked, Craig found a pipe from a different bathroom's sink had also broken, and he said he'd come back tomorrow and fix it for us. And true to his word, he came back the next day, early, finished the work from yesterday, and fixed the second pipe, no charge. Very glad I found Craig's Plumbing. He's knowledgeable, experienced, and professional. And at the same time, he is friendly and no-nonsense with his approach and explanations. He went the extra mile and didn't have to. He followed up with me later that day about how things were going with the repair and drying out process. He's gonna follow up with us in a few days to make sure things are working as they should. Craig cares about his customers, and cares about doing good work. I will 100% be going to Craig's Plumbing for future plumbing issues. read more

We've had two emergency plumbing issues in the last few months and honestly we would have been in a bad situation both times without Craig's Plumbing. Craig and his team always respond quickly and fit us in to make sure the work gets done in a timely manner. Additionally he quotes fair prices with no surprises and does an excellent job. I highly recommend Craig's Plumbing for quality work, quick responses and fair prices! read more

I wrote a 5-star review back in 2015 and the service has remained at that level of excellence since then. I live in an old house and tend to have at least one pluming-related problem every year or so. Craig is incredibly knowledgeable and gets the job done--and is very efficient in doing so. Highly recommended. read more

The gas company checked my house for gas leaks and needed a professional plumber to repair them. Craig came to my house early the next morning and checked every single pipe with Alex, the whole work was completed successfully after 3 days. I am very grateful to Craig and Alex for their carefulness, and I am very relieved to leave all the piping problems in my house to them in the future. read more

These guys did such a great job I had to give back with a stellar review. First off, we worked with Craig a few months back on a disposal issue which he walked us through over the phone and refused to take a dime. Then when it came to an outdoor plumbing issue of course Craig was going to be our man. He is incredibly trustworthy and really worked with us to provide the best option at the best value. We did our homework and received multiple bids all of which were not only higher but listed fees which Craig ended up just throwing in. The job itself was done to perfection and upon completion he cleaned up every screw and dust particle. Can't say enough positive things about this man. read more

The gas company told me I must have a leak and turned off the gas line to my guest house and laundry room. Based on the positive reviews I saw here, I called Craig and we arranged for him to come out. He arrived when he said he would and assessed the situation by doing some quick initial tests at no charge. Those tests weren't conclusive and he gave me an estimate to come back with his equipment to test the gas lines going to 3 appliances. It ends up I did have a leak which is why my gas bill was so high. Craig gave me an estimate the same day for replacing the line. Throughout my interactions with him, he was highly communicative about what he needed to do or was doing, professional and fair. I will definitely be calling Craig again the next time I need a plumber. read more
