I was assisted by good guy, plumbing and the best and most professional way. They were easy to work with transparent and pricing and the work was a tremendous quality. The person that assisted me in completing the work is named Junior. He was extremely professional, very helpful, informative, and clean with his work. I would go back to this plumbing company for any of my future needs, 100%. read more

I only write reviews when I'm convinced that others need to know about a company and this is one of them. I can't think of a better name for this high quality company. My husband and I had been working with another big local plumber in the South Bay for 7 yrs. They did all the plumbing in the home we gutted and serviced our rental property installing water heaters, faucets etc and it got to the point where we felt like a number vs a name and face so we started the search for a new plumber relationship. My 95 yr old father in law had a leaky "main" to his house and we thought it was a great way to experience a new plumber and the reviews for GG don't lie. The guy who came out was friendly, knowledgeable and skilled. what struck us was when he offered both the option to replace as well as repair. Maybe we are jaded by the many service providers who always scare you into doing more extensive work than necessary but this guy seemed like he was advising us like he would advise his own grandfather. The work was done well and it's been nearly a year and no more problems. Because of this experience we decided to work with GG for our tankless water heater maintenance. The price was upfront and reasonable and a different technician came but equally friendly, knowledgeable and diligent. He shared upfront what he was going to do ( you'd be surprised all that goes into this) and approximately how long it would take ( barring any issues) and when he was done, you'd never even know anyone was here it so clean. Third experience was with a shower that wasn't producing hot water and we had a third Good Guy come who expertly assessed the situation, gave us the proposed plan and fees and came back to fix it when I received the part from the mfg. this technician also spoke to us as if we were family or friends when he gave us tips about turning on the hot water even in bathrooms that weren't being used because the parts can break if you don't use it. so he told us how he runs everything at least once a month and now we do that and think of him. Recently, we had to replace two faucets in our rental and of course called GG who came quickly. I had a question about the work and called the home office and without question they had me talk to Rob, the service manager,who spoke to me with respect and full transparency and I felt genuinely heard and understood. ZERO EGO and no patronizing. ( as a professional woman who doesn't even get that from other male colleagues, this was a a big deal) Faucets in and working and tenants happy- goal accomplished. GG Plumbing is not set up to be the cheapest service provider but it's clear they pride themselves on delivering the best experience and outcome at a very fair price ( including warranty). To me the peace of mind working with a trusted company is key and they won me over. read more

These guys quoted me 500 to install a kitchen faucet, and another 450 dollars to replace the 1/2 inch Shutoff Valves. Went to Home Depot, the valves are 12 dollars, so part would be 24 dollars. Home Depot offered install of facet and valves for less than 300 dollars. Their Good Reviews can't be by real customers. I would recommend you look elsewhere for more honest prices. read more

This is the third time Good Guys Plumbing has come out to help with a very difficult re-fit under my mobile home, and again, were professional, patient, and, like the other visits, went over the materials, approx. time and total cost before starting the job. I was fortunate, and very pleased to have Danny come out, his third time, to help with the re-fit problem. Danny was there in one day and finished sooner than his approx. time. Having plumbers in my family, and having some experience myself, I can honestly say you won't find another shop that has the skill, the ethics and quality of workmanship anywhere. read more

Great experience with Good Guy Plumbing installing our water filtration system. The team was friendly, knowledgeable, professional, and honest throughout. Big thanks to JJ and Jose! They were detail-oriented, explained everything clearly, and did excellent work. Also shout-out to Robert for being attentive and responsive, which really gave us confidence that we were in good hands. Would absolutely work with them again and highly recommend them. read more

Good Guy Plumbing installed a new kitchen faucet here today. We had already purchased the faucet at Lowe's. The plumber took approximately 32 minutes to install it and charged us about $530. I checked around, and the average price for this installation should be about $300. Needless to say, we were ripped off and won't be using Good Guy plumbing again. read more

There's people are scam artists. First they the charged me 1,500 dollars just for a simple leak for my kitchen faucet which I later found out was only a 500 $ repair. Then they told me I would need to replace my whole bathroom wall for another leak my bathroom had and would have to pay 40,000 $ for it . I contacted another company and they told me I didn't need to replace the wall at all just repair a simple leak. These people are greedy scam artists who just want your money. Call another plumbing company read more

Great company. Professional service and they quickly can take care of our issue. Also, they are good at problem solving by standing at customers perspective. Highly recommended! read more

There's a very good reason why these people have so many positive reviews. Even when they just give you a quote they ask you to give them a 5-star review.... they'll send follow up emails, etc asking if you recommend them and to again prompt you leave a review, over and over these guys litterally harass me for a review, so anyways since they asked, here it is..... They came when they said they would come... they were polite and courteous. So I'll give them 2 stars for that. Unfortunately they gave me a really long sales pitch about how amazing they are and everything they would do (that a good/competent plumber does for free anyways) .... then they finally give me the price ... and wouldn't you know it, I was quoted like $10k+++ for a tankless water heater that I got a quote for $5200 from someone else. Mind you the unit itself is less than $1500 from Home Depot. I know everyone needs to make money but if you're going to be really expensive and have a high markup and just looking for suckers I kind of wished I had known that before I wasted my time and theirs getting their quote. They had other options eventually for less cost but still much higher than my local plumber I've always used who doesn't cut corners and offers a fair price. Long story short, if you want a professional job and don't mind paying double, by all means... they're great I'm sure.... but if you think their very high Yelp and Google ratings are from delivering lots of VALUE to their customers, you're mistaken. It's just very good marketing and harassing a bunch of past clients and even non-clients they gave quotes to, in order to leave them a 5-star rating. read more

Good Guys Plumbing exceeded ALL expectations!! Easy to make an appointment... great follow up and texting to validate arrival time... prompt, friendly, and clean! J.J. found and installed a broken basin in ONE DAY. ( My last plumber left us hanging for months and eventually ghosted us!) Thank you Good Guys!!! You and now my 'forever' plumbers!!! read more

I called Good Guys when my kitchen sink was slow to drain. I expected to get the standard response where it would be Days before someone could come and take a look at it. Surprisingly, she said someone could be here that afternoon. I was stunned. Okay. Good response time. Check! Junior came out that afternoon and he was as cordial and personable as he could be. He got right to the job at hand and had the pipes free and clear in no time. He took the time to explained to me what had happened and the steps I could take to keep my pipes clean and clear every month. I thought the fee that was charged was very reasonable and fair. Stellar job Junior and to Good Guys Plumbing as well! read more

Robert solved problems that several prior plumbers were unable to solve. And he did it faster and cheaper than the prior plumbers, too. And he was nice. Their entire operation from first contact through billing was efficient and professional. Zero complaints. I'd use Good Guy Plumbing again and again. read more

Cesar from Good Guy came in and helped me out with all the water heater needs and I decided to go with him. I am very satisfied of his work and service. I will contact and deal with Good Guy for my future plumbing needs as well. read more

Danny was awesome. he was super patient and thoughtful in undertaking the FloLogic leak detector valve we needed because our home had 1.5" pipes and the moen flo doesn't go that high. He debugged the pool / irrigation / sprinkler/ water heater setup to configure everything correctly, did a really clean install and was a pleasure to work with. The initial quote was reasonable and the onsite quote was within this range. You pay for reliability and quality and while a few hundred more than other quotes, absolutely recommend. read more

I called Good Guy Plumbing and they came out within a couple of days to repair my water softening unit. Danny, the technician, was very thorough and made some excellent suggestions. I would definitely use Good Guy Plumbing again! read more

Responsive and great communication. Always get a call before, during and after. Good explanations of the work and time.

Based on Yelp reviews, I made an appointment with Good Guy Plumbing to come out and service my tankless water heater. I had a few other issues that Junior was able to advise me on maintaining, like soaking my faucet head in vinegar, and clearing my sink plugs for better drainage. Junior was punctual, knowledgable and has a great personality. I'm thankful we just needed maintenance done, but I know who to call if an issue arises! read more

Good Guy Plumbing was able to take my call and send out a service professional in under half a day. I needed help with a bathroom sink clog and cleaning out the pesky overflow holes which were super hard to reach. Ernesto Escobar was friendly, professional, and fast! read more

The young man who came to our home to do a thorough inspection of all of our Plumbing, I mean every bit of it, was extremely knowledgeable, friendly and thorough. Age, he is already getting ready to go into the fourth year of a 4-year Plumbing program that his company is paying for. He and his fellow employees to participate in. This is the kind of business we need to support as a community. Also, they have a program for $14.95 a month they waive the $79 service charge if they need to come out to fix anything as well as providing the complete inspection of all the plumbing annually. Great company, great employees. read more

I don't usually leave reviews, but Good Guy Plumbing has been great! Great service from both their receptionists to their plumbers. Our kitchen sink drainage was blocked and we found out our neighbor downstairs was in worse situation, black water sitting still. Called Good Guy Plumbing in the afternoon, and JJ came on time the next morning. He evaluated the situation of both units and gave us clear idea how the drain should be properly cleared. Gave us clear price quotes. The HOA ended up taking over with their plumber. But JJ was still very patient and understanding. HOA plumbers ended up fixing the blockage the way JJ mentioned. Will definitely recommend Good Guy Plumbing to friends and family and keep them as our go to for all future plumbing issues. Very grateful for their help and service! read more

I recently made an appointment again with Good Guy Plumbing. Because this time my guest bathroom tub filled with water and would not drain properly. The bathtub experienced a drainage issue on Saturday. After trying several different remedies. This was a problem I could not remedy. The tub had a history of clogging over the years. But a plunger always usually made the difference. Yet, this time the clog would not clear, so I figured this was a serious issue. I called Good Guy plumbing on Monday and spoke with Tammy. By the way, Tammy who has helped me in the past is awesome. And she always greets me by my first name. On Tuesday as scheduled Good Guy technician Cesar Morales and his assistant tech in training arrived early. After explaining my situation to Cesar, he briefed me on several possible scenarios surrounding my clogged bathtub. Cesar was honest, professional, and genuine in his overall initial assessment. He suggested to snake the tub to try to locate the blockage in the pipe. After snaking the tub multiple times he moved to snake under the kitchen sink. He moved to snake under the kitchen sink. Because whenever I ran water into the kitchen sink, water backed up into the tub. Cesar eventually located the blockage and cleared it. The tub started to drain properly thereafter. He then gave me good advice on how to minimize blockage in the future. In summary, what was most impressive to me was the first call to Good Guys to the final outcome and resolution. The entire Good Guy team showed empathy, understanding, and professionalism which equaled resounding success from start to finish. This company is a great company with great service and people. I would highly recommend! read more

I had a plumbing emergency that needed immediate assistance and Junior and JJ from Good Guy Plumbing came out within an hour or so of calling. Our kitchen sink was backed up and we have older plumbing, so it was tricky to snake but after two days of work and a quick hydrojet, the job was finished and our sink was no longer backed up. Both Junior, JJ, and the woman I spoke with on the phone were kind, professional, and knowledgeable about what was happening and had no issues walking me through their process and how the plumbing in the home worked. 10/10 and will be calling again should anything come up in the future. read more

Just finished a nasty plumbing job performed by Mario Portillo of Good Guy Plumbing. I'd never dealt with them before and scheduled the job by chance of running into them in the neighborhood while doing a job for a friend around the corner...whose opinion I trusted since he lives in the showcase house on the block. my problem had been an ugly toilet overflow that I hadn't been able to diagnose for the longest time. I arranged a quick visit with Mario at his convenience, and he promised to come and inspect my problem the next day. He showed up right on time, came equipped for a deep look into my problem, had it diagnosed--accurately--and proposed a toilette replacement. His proposal was exactly what I had expected to be the case, though I'd also expected a runaround of various other "needed" procedures. None of that occured. Mario performed the replacement with exactly the newer model I'd had in mind. That also involved some "deep reach" flush pipe cleaning which I had not proposed but which Mario instigated as simply a "best practice" in that situation. At the end of the cleanup, with the installation of the new toilet as the one I'd jad in mind all along, my flush overflow problem was solved and the original toilet was carted off with NO MESS. The combined job of toilet replacement and pipe cleaning was performed efficiently and without "surprises." The cost had already been clarified in advance and it was very reasonable. He had showed up, on time, as promised, performed the right job for the right problem, and left his work space immaculate. I recommend Mario and his colleagues at Good Guy Plumbing for any plumbing problem that demands an efficient solution at a reasonable cost. You won't be disappointed. --Mark Richardson (Torrance, CA) read more

I was very impressed with GGP! Had a normally lovely Navien water heater that had become ... rebellious ... and help was needed. When I called in, I learned that their team is extensively trained on my system (awesome). They sent over their secret weapon, Ernesto Escobar - an exceptional technician and a real pleasure to work with. I had a great deal of curiosity about the system's inner workings and he was happy to explain while walking me through his diagnostic logic (I think he could teach the course). As he had anticipated the likely issues and picked up key parts on the way over, test and repair was straightforward and efficient (he got in one - the culprit was a failed check valve). Wonderful experience - will definitely use the Good Guy team again. -Michael read more

My parents 60 year old house had the old cast iron drain pipes completely disintegrate. There was water leakage and ceiling stains all over the den. Junior came in with a small crew and completely replaced all the old pipes, including the ones that required cutting into an outside wall. His team did a good job, completed the work quickly, and cleaned up after themselves. read more

I had the pleasure of working with Good Guy Plumbing to replace my water heater in Torrance. I contacted Good Guy Plumbing based on the positive Yelp reviews. Let me say that this was the best decision I ever made! After making the request I was immediately contacted by Marisa, who scheduled a technician to come to my home the next day. She also let me know that if a tech became available sooner she would contact me. Shortly afterwards, she let me know that a tech was available to come out the same day around 3PM! Ernesto arrived promptly and as promised. He was nothing short of exceptional during our interaction. He quickly assessed the issue and we decided it would be best to replace my 12+ year old water heater vs repairing. He quickly ordered a replacement water heater and it was delivered by his colleague within an hour. Ernesto was genuine, extremely polite, respectful, and presented a very high quality image of his company. I never felt pressured, or rushed in any way to jump into any work and felt that my best interest and total satisfaction is top priority. Both he and his colleague are excellent representatives of Good Guy Plumbing. This was truly one of the best interactions that l've had with an outside vendor. My entire experience was both professional and painless right from initial contact to the final walkthrough. I highly respect and recommend this company to anyone. Kudos to Good Guy Plumbing! read more

We called Good Guy Plumbing for the first time and had the most amazing experience! Plumbing issues are never fun but Danny and Paz really helped ensure we had a smooth experience.

They were truly honest and didn't add unnecessary items/expenses. They have now been our go to for plumbing! read more

I had an old tankless water heater fail the day before Thanksgiving with family. Hector and Pas came out that evening and installed a new unit. The guys were very professional and courteous and answered all my questions. The company quickly responded a couple weeks later to fine tune the settings.

Ernie Jr and Danny were great! They arrived promptly on time and were very professional. After asking what problems I was having, they quickly assessed the situation and made the necessary recommendations. They provided clear and itemized costs and completed the necessary repairs quickly. As with all other companies, they provided recommended and suggested preventative maintenance on other areas they saw that could be problematic in the future. We do have old cast iron pipes in our house. Will see how those estimates get quoted in a follow-up email. I like the communication this company provides via both text and email. Plus, I was called prior to arrival. Prices seemed in line with other local companies. Thanks guys! read more

I got so lucky that Adamu was available within hours after my request for someone to look at my hot water heater. Originally the appt was scheduled for later in the week, but as soon as he heard what was happening, he didn't want to wait for safety concerns. Adamu was so nice with amazing customer service. He went above and beyond to make sure I got a new hot water heater installed that day. I'm totally going to be calling him in the future for any of my plumbing needs. read more

Good Guy Plumbing - New hot water heater! - Plumbing Near Me - Torrance, California

I had a sewer line that backed up and called Good Guy. It took a few days for them to be able to come but I waited as they were highly recommended to me. They communicated clearly the day and time they would come, gave the name of the technician, and had him check in with me. He texted that he could come earlier than my appointment and followed up with a phone call. He was polite clean and communicated well. He arrived with a box truck and tried two different snakes to open the drain. When they didn't work he tried the Hydro Jet. I was pleased that it didn't mean his having to leave to go get it. I asked if he could repair a cracked fitting and he had the parts with him to to that as well. Excellent communication Well equipped truck Great service I highly recommend you use them for your plumbing needs read more

This review is about 8 months late, but is still well deserved after the overall great job they did with our bathrooms. Judging from the reviews I've read, the job we hired them for is probably on the bigger/more complex side than the typical plumbing call. We needed three things done: 1) re-piping to convert our single vanity sink to a double vanity sink 2) drywall installed behind the sink for a portion of the wall that was gutted out to eliminate a bad mold issue (highly recommend "Advanced Environmental" for mold remediation - see my review on their page for details) 3. Install two new vanities and 3 sinks/faucets in two different bathrooms Robert took good care of me by giving me a very competitive price for all of this work. I'm the type of guy that gets 3 estimates minimum for house work that I hire out for, and I can confirm that Robert gave an honest and competitive price. Robert and his crew showed great professionalism in how they carried out the job and addressed any preferences/needs I had along the way. I always try to give fair reviews so I need to mention some hiccups along the way. There was a minor drip leak in 2 of the 3 sink faucets the same day they were installed, but they immediately came back out to fix the leaks as soon as I called. Also, there were some scratches made on our tile floors from pushing the vanities against the walls during installation. These issues were nothing major and I still highly recommend them as their prices for big jobs like this are competitive and their service was great given the job at hand. read more

Hydro Jetting Done Right! Have had a slow drain for years and got tired of constantly pouring 1-gallon of drain cleaner down every other week and finally bit the bullet and called Good Guy Plumbing to clean the drain properly. The hydro jetting takes a pressure washer hose with jets and flushes all of the gunk and sludge down to the main sewer line from the clean out access. SO MUCH BETTER than a snake!!!! Our drain is clear, smells good and the area outside of the house that looked like a bomb went off from all of the sludge was properly cleaned afterwards. Price was well worth the effort that was needed to clean this drain. I highly recommend this company for any drain or plumbing issues. read more

I've used Good Guy Plumbing on three jobs: a whole house repipe in El Segundo, a sewer line correction at a commercial building in Long Beach and a day after Christmas water heater and circulation system replacement at our home. They are responsive, reliable and do good work. Rob, the owner, came out to check work on the water heater replacement. Probably also did so on the other jobs where I wasn't present. Their pricing is fair and crews are well organized, nice guys that are respectful of property and leave workspaces clean. Highly recommended. read more
