Our sink kept backing up so I explained the problem and Dave was here within 24 hours. Prompt, on time and did't try to sell me something I didn't need. Dave was fair, honest and conscientious. Overall great guy and our sink doesn't back up anymore. I forgot to mention that he replaced my garbage disposal a year ago too! read more

I've known Dave for over 10 years and he's done the plumbing work at my residence and my rentals. He's very fair on price and always does an outstanding job. Never had to call him back out for any of his work. What he's done for me over the years: Water heaters Garbage disposers Valves Toilet installs read more

We noted that water was coming through the wall and getting into the downstairs bedroom. Visions of thousands of dollars leaving our bank account ran through our heads. We called DC Plumbing and Dave diagnosed the problem quickly. He knows what he's doing! He did not try to upsell us or take advantage of perhaps cashing in on a hefty insurance claim. He was punctual, honest, professional, has a great work ethic, and was easy to deal with. There is no other plumber we will use in the future. read more

David Camm is an honest and hardworking plumber that stands by his work. I had an issue with my water heater 2 years after the installation and he came by and fixed it for free. Good guy for sure. read more

I had a major water problem - water main leak, on Christmas Eve day! I spotted the problem as I was walking outside my home and noticed 4-6" of standing water at my foundation beneath my outside spigot. I ran inside the house and had my husband filling up buckets and any large containers I could get my hands on - I knew we had a major problem. A couple of my neighbors came out to help me, lifted the lid on the water meter underground compartment and noticed the meter spinning like crazy. I knew I'd never find a plumber that night so I called the emergency number for the City Water Dept.; they had a rep at my house within 20 minutes. He confirmed it was a water main leak and, unfortunately, it would be my bill to fix it. I had him just shut off the water and told him I would use what water I had collected for flushing toilets and washing dishes until I could reach a plumber. Christmas AM, when hearing of my problem, my neighbor offered me their hose over our connecting fence and also gave me the number of a plumber they had recently used. At this point, either no plumber answered my calls or they were booked with other emergencies. I called DC Plumbing (Dave Camm), left a message-he called me back in 10 minutes and said he could be out to assess the problem between 11 AM & 2 PM if that would work for me. He showed up at 10 AM, spoke with my neighbor with a temp. solution - hook my spigot to her spigot to give me hot/cold water for 24 hrs. until he could get out to trench my situation @ 7:30 AM next day. She was fine with that. Dave arrived on time the next AM, disconnected the spigots and dug the trench from the meter to our water line and found that a coupling had a crack and the crack had migrated down the line, creating the constant leak. Job done by 1 PM! He had a solution to give me hot water for the first time in 5 days, prompt and professional, very fair pricing (he even installed my garbage disposal while he was on the job); I know why my neighbor referred him and I will tell anyone who asks - call Dave of DC Plumbing. He will definitely be my go-to plumber from this point on. He also has the most wonderful dog who rides "shot gun" in his truck! I apologize for the length of this referral - but my neighbor and Dave saved the day for which I am so grateful! T. Filler, Carlsbad, CA read more

This guy is unethical, does shoddy work and will rip you off. There are plumbers out there who won't do these thing. Find one.

Sorry, I used DC Plumbing in San Clemente. This review was written by mistake.

One of my close friends referred me to Dave with DC plumbing after I realized I had a leak in my garage. I couldn't be happier she did. I called Dave and he dropped everything and came within 30 minutes to asses the issue. He made it work with his schedule and came the next morning. Not only did he fix everything, he was very meticulous and left everything very clean, like he hadn't even been here. His customer service is impeccable and he is all around a really nice guy. I can tell he really cares about his business and more importantly his customers. His prices are very reasonable and he definitely goes above and beyond. I highly recommend to anyone and everyone and will be referring him to friends and family! read more

Dave did a great job fixing our broken water main below the drive way. He was responsive, friendly, and economical.

When we moved, the moving company informed us that the gas line on the dryer was capped and needed a plumber to add a valve. Called Dave in the late afternoon and he was over the following morning. He took care of it right away. We'll be calling him for all our plumbing needs. read more

After extensive research in yelp and google, I found DC plumbing with great reviews. I called and I spoke with Dave (the owner). We had several plumbing issues throughout the house and Dave was able to answer all my questions. We met the next day. He quickly took care of our dryer connection issue. We were so pleased with his services that we asked him to take care of the remaining plumbing issues we have. He is very professional, super friendly, honest and most of all knowledgeable in his field! He doesn't nickel and dim you and will exactly tell you what to expect for repairs or new equipment . So glad to find him! We will be using him for several projects including replacing our water heater! read more

Dave was fast, affordable, and professional! I don't know much about plumbing or water heaters and Dave took the time to talk me through everything he was doing and was very patient with me. I will absolutely call Dave again for my next plumbing crisis. read more

I called DC Plumbing after we had several drains in the house that we not properly clearing. I scheduled with Dave and he was out the very next day and quickly resolved the issue. Positive experience // very reliable // will use DC Plumbing again... read more

I recently had a very positive experience with Dave. He was responsive, on-time, polite; he explained my issue in a common sense manner. I was extremely pleased and will use his services again when needed. Thank you Dave! read more

Dave is a nice guy and did a good job at a fair price. I got a quote from another plumbing company of $18,900 to re-pipe my entire home when Dave fixed my problem for $700. He is fair and honest and I will use him again when I need a plumber read more

First of all the phone number listed is his cell phone... which he actually answers (unlike some other plumbers), ON SATURDAY'S!!   As a homeowner who was having major water troubles on a weekend It was such a relief that an experienced plumber answered his phone, gave me great advice and was out first thing Monday morning.  I've called him several times since then and he either answers or will call me right back.(FANTASTIC CUSTOMER SERVICE).     Unlike big brand plumbers, Dave is just one friendly guy, tons of experience, one truck and his dog.  He will give you straight answers and won't try to sell you stuff you don't need.  He explained the situation, pros and cons and let me make the decisions.     Seriously can't recommend him enough. read more

Dave responded promptly. Did a professional job and drives a truck that is well equipped with tools and parts. I had a tricky little problem but Dave had just the tool to knock the job out. Dave will be my goto guy from now on. Oh, and very reasonably priced. read more

Great service, very reasonable rates. Replaced an old garbage disposal and kitchen sink faucets. Also adjusted water pressure for us in the house. Knowledgeable and friendly. Will definitely call again if we need a plumber! read more

Dave is super reliable and treats your problems like his own. This means it will get done and it will be done right! Thanks Dave! read more

Came home after being away for the weekend to water in the garage. Dave came first thing in the morning after my call. He determined immediately where the water was coming from, opened the wall and fixed the pipe. I have used other companies for situations in the past. None were as prompt, helpful or reasonable in their pricing. I will always call Dave first! read more

Dave quickly responded to my cry for help for a repeat clogged toilet. He responded with his eta and let me know when he was on his way. He was prompt, clean, respectful, and efficient. He quickly got to work by snaking the toilet and ensured the problem was resolved. I will call DC plumbing for all of my plumbing needs. read more

DC Plumbing is awesome! We have used them twice- once to replace our water heater and once to repair a broken pipe from our house to the backyard. On both occasions water was leaking everywhere. Dan returned both my late calls on Sunday night and came out first thing on Monday morning. Besides the prompt service, Dan is extremely knowledgeable and friendly AND he has the coolest dog that just hangs out in his truck while he works :) read more

Called to schedule appt. Was told Thursday was open. Had to call them the day before to see what time they were coming. I was told between 8 and 10:00. They were a no show AND not even a call. Completely unreliable!! Don't waste your time. read more

Dave is a true professional, great communication and excellent craftsmanship. Came out within 2 hours of speaking with him and replaced 18 angle stops, 5 toilet tank hoses, 3 shower values and 1 water regulator in under 6 hour. Thank you to DC Plumbing another job well done. Plus who does not like his assistant Archie!! read more

We were in a tight spot because our refrigerator went dead. Our new fridge showed up but the water valve was also busted, and the new fridge could not be installed until we had a plumber replace the valve. We needed help in a hurry, and Dave from DC Plumbing responded fast and made quick work of the water valve repair. Thank you Dave!! read more

So...I normally don't write reviews unless it is a really bad experience or really great experience. And as far as DC plumbing and Dave, I cannot be happier. There is not enough good things to say about Dave. In the past 5 years since moving to San Marcos, I have have hired him to replace my water heater, replace my water regular, and an emergency visit to fix a busted pipe which resulting in water in the entire house shit off. Every single time Dave was prompt to respond my call, gave a reasonable and accurate quote, and has always been on time and completed the work quickly with good workmanship. Aside from the above, I want to highlight a few items why I am so satisfied as to not only write a review but leave a 5 star review: 1) Although Dave is casual enough to make you feel like you know him, he is extremely professional when it comes to his work. Communication is prompt, work has always been completed above expectation for me, and he truly knows his trade. 2) He has great prices for his services. Trust me. I am one to get at least a few quotes, and he never price gouges, and is a Steele for the quality of workmanship he provides. He is also great about calling back and checking to make sure everything is still good and no further issues. 3) There have been multiple times where I have called him to ask a question about something, and he has given me advise without any expectation in return. At times, his advise prevented him from getting work since it was an easy fix I could do. That's how honest he is. He will truly tell you your best options for your problem. With all that, 5 stars all the way. Highly recommend. read more

Finally got to meet up with Dave, big man, but such a wonderful guy. He is definitely very professional and knowledgeable !!! He fixed my leak in less than 15 mins !!! I will 100% and highly recommend him for his work and reasonable pricing!! read more

Dave is the real deal. Showed up at the crack of dawn on a Monday morning. He had the leak fixed and the water back on before lunch.

Dave, came out and evaluated a leak. He fixed the problem in timely and professional manner. Great job, friendly, honest. Didn't try to up sell. Even checked some other areas for problems without extra charge. I will use him every time. What more could you ask for? Best plumbing experience I have had (and unfortunately I have had some bad ones) read more

Dave Camm (owner) came to my house within 2 hours and replaced my water heater without any BS. What a great guy! He is out to get it done and done right. I had just kicked out two KNUCKLEHEADS the day before because of bogus work they wanted to do, and Dave said what they wanted to do was not required or even necessary, they just wanted more $$$. THANK YOU DAVE CAMM! You are a breath of fresh air! read more

Dave came out to change my shower valve. He went over the different replacement options with me and after comparing cost options , I opted for the change out kit. I now have a perfectly working shower again. No more scouring hot water from out of nowhere!!! DC was professional, efficient and affordable. read more

Another 5 star experience with Dave at DC Plumbing. I needed a toilet replaced, and he was able to find time in his busy schedule to fix it the same day. WOW. He and his apprentice were on time, ready with supplies, and worked efficiently but carefully. I had a rusted out flange which was not expected and they took their time to explain what that meant, and the options for fixing. I cannot recommend a more upstanding, straightforward company. As Dave and Tom were working around the house, they also mentioned areas that were outdated and could potentially need attention in the future. This is useful for me, because I have only lived in this house for 2 years, and who really has time to keep up with all the advances in plumbing and valves and such. Again, Dave was up front, no mickey-mousing around and above all else a pleasure to have working on my house. I know he does all kinds of jobs, from custom to routine (like my job). I would not hesitate to recommend to my 90 year old gma who knows nothing about plumbing, because I know in an industry that can have some schmarmy folks, Dave will do the right thing, for the right price, and explain everything along the way. Thanks Dave and Tom! read more

My wife found this expert plumber, recommended from the SHE's in San Elijo Hills. I can confirm this plumber is just all around awesome. We had a water heater replaced and the job was done fast. We'll definitely be using DC Plumbing again to replace our tubs and toilets. read more

This review is long overdue Dave did the plumbing on our entire house about 2yrs ago when we remodeled and we haven't had a problem, he installed my claw foot tub beautifully. We had to call him for a small slow leak in the tubs handle and as busy as he is he responded and squeezed us in. Dave is honest and professional and an all around awesome guy. We highly recommend him!! read more

interesting.. I posted a bad review and huh.. it does not show up on yelp... I am only giving two stars to see what happens here. DC plumbing did NOT do a good job, cost me over $10,000 as all his work needed to be ripped out.. isn't is strange that ALL reviews are 5 stars.. whats the saying..if something is too good to be true, it probably isn't. that is the case with DC plumbing.. read more

DC Plumbing is by far the best plumbing company I have ever dealt with. The owner Dave is the best! He is professional, prompt, and honest, rare these days. I have used DC for 5 jobs over the past few years and he always gets the job done either under budget or on budget- and timely. He suggests only the best parts and gives good advice on your options. He can do it all, be it installing a new sink, disposal, or bigger things. You can count on him because he lives in the community and is active in local family activities so you will see him around. read more

We needed a new water heater installed fairly quickly and DC Plumbing saved the day! He was quick to respond, friendly, flexible and very reasonably priced. We will definitely be using him in the feature for any plumbing needs. Highly recommend. read more

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!. Dave Camm, I just wanted to take a quick moment and say THANK YOU for your great service on our water heater bursting over the Labor Day weekend. I appreciated that you stopped what you were doing and were at my home within 20 minutes of speaking with you. Great service and great work. I read more

Dave Camm, owner of DC Plumbing, just finished a big job for me. He replaced the main gas line to the house, about one hundred sixty feet of gas line. A deep trench had to be dug and his assistant Manny was the best, most professional trench digger I have ever seen. The operation was seamless from the minute I called Dave and left a message with my information. He promptly called back and began the job within two days. He was conscientious about making sure to complete the job before the rain arrives this weekend. This was crucial because we couldn't afford to let the coming rain undermine the open trench on a downhill slope to the street. He completed the job in record time and waited for the city to arrive and sign off on the permit. Manny came back to do the backfill and both Dave and Manny left the property in pristine condition with no debris left over and a smoothly raked result. I could not be happier I found Dave Camm. Incidentally, I had been without heat or hot water for 6 weeks while I fussed around with big plumbing companies who could not remember my name or my project, even though I spoke with them often on the phone. One company sent four different men to my house at different times, each was to handle some small part of the job. After being totally frustrated, I decided to move on and look for someone in which I had more confidence. I decided to check Yelp and noticed Dave's company was collecting many stars from happy customers. I picked up the phone and called him then and there, and I am the better for it. The SDG&E rep just left after hooking my gas meter up. I will have my first hot bath in 7 weeks tonight. Dave Camm is knowledgeable, competent, and strives to do excellent work. read more

These days, it is rare to find such honest service, but Dave definetly offers this. It's nice when you call DC Plumbing, you actually get through to Dave. He recently re-piped our entire house (copper) and did a great job in just 2 days. He was easy to deal with, very honest and a nice guy as well. We will definetly use him for all our plumbing needs. read more
