I've used Shellback two previous times. However, I was really surprised Shellback arrived in less than 4 hours. The technician assessed the problem and he had my kitchen sink faucet resolved very quickly. He left everything clean and tidy. Thank you Shellback! read more

Jesse at Shellback Plumbing was amazing. We originally hired another plumbing company for our home inspection, but they canceled on us at the last minute during our 7 day inspection contingency! Talk about stress, but luckily Jesse and Shellback came to the rescue and were able to come out the very same day, which we were incredibly grateful for. He walked us through everything in plain English, letting us know what needed attention now versus what could wait until later. It was so helpful as first-time homeowners because we never felt overwhelmed- we just felt informed. He also confirmed that the sewer line looked to be in great shape, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. We really liked Jesse. He took his time going through everything with us, answered all of our questions, and made sure we understood what we were looking at. We definitely recommend Jesse and Shellback Plumbing! read more

Criminal. Lies & forgery. They sent me a forged invoice with a false description of work. Specifically, I called for an estimate over the phone and they insisted on sending someone over. Okay, but I never agreed to pay for that. They gave me a $2,875.50 estimate. I'm not a plumber, but no dummy either. So I called an honest plumber who fixed the issue for under $500. Shellback then has the audacity to send me an invoice with a FORGED "X" signature for me agreeing to pay $275 for clearing a drain that they did not actually clear. A lie and a forgery. I never agreed to pay for an estimate. And would never pay for someone to try to rip me off like this. Unreal. Stay away. Update: Shellback has now withdrawn the false invoice, but maintains that it was from "a trusted technician" on their team. They also claim to have cleared a drain, as stated in the invoice. That's untrue. A couple hours after they made the estimate, I found the cabinet under my sink flooded with water. Making pipes drain into the cabinets is not clearing a drain. read more

I used my 75 ft drain cleaner machine to unclog my bathtub. I was sucessful in unclogging except my snake got stuck deep inside the pipe. No matter what I did, I couldn't get it out. Ryan from Shellback Plumbing came and within 5 minutes, he took it out. He said this happens quite frequently, he knew exactly what to do. Thank you for job well done. read more

Very disappointed in the service from Shellback Plumbing. One of my properties had a very foul odor coming from the master bathroom and I wanted to get rid of the smell, so I called these guys over and they inspected the bathroom and said they need to clean the bathroom by using a cable drain and by removing the trap. I paid $271 for that and the smell still didn't go away so then they recommended to replace the toilet gasket which was another $362. Well that didn't get rid of the odor and I was already down over $600. I called another plumber and they came in and cleaned the drains the proper way and told me that the previous plumber didn't do a good job cleaning the drains and left a lot of gunk. Now there is no more smell!!! The pictures attached are from the new plumber. Shellback scammed me and kept making up reasons to call them back and pay them. Will never trust them ever again and I strongly suggest everyone to get 2nd opinions before agreeing to their service! read more

I spoke directly with the owner and tried to address a few service concerns I felt were not handled properly. While he disagreed with my assessment, and was combative...my perspective didn't change... It only worsened in terms of the company... I'm the paying customer, and the experience didn't meet expectations... I deal with a lot of vendors across the state for my facilities so I know the difference between acceptable and unacceptable. My biggest issue was the lack of cleanup and how quickly the crew seemed ready to leave. My entire back patio was left covered in mud and debris. The mess extended to my pool (which required a separate cleaning), the side corridors, walkways, my new doors, and even my barbecue area... It was pretty nasty... The new barbecue just got put in so the white stucco is going to need to be repainted. The street in front of my home.. including both neighboring properties...was left with significant sludge and sentiment buildup. I ended up having to apologize to my neighbors and personally pressure wash the area myself. To be fair, I was told the pool might get dirty, but this was far beyond what I expected. They also backed up and blocked my pool overflow system, which had been working fine prior, and didn't address it before leaving. From my perspective, the crew seemed more focused on moving quickly toward cutting concrete and scheduling additional work rather than fully resolving the issue at hand... They were eager to get the initial job going which is fine, and said there are three guys ready to work, but unfortunately one guy probably should have been out on disability with what seemed like a broken arm. No disrespect, they all seemed nice from a personality standpoint... But when you're being billed per hour, you expect three healthy workers. I've had similar work done at my other properties, and this experience felt rushed and not up to a professional standard. What didn't sit well with me was the owner's lack of receptiveness to respectful, direct feedback... especially from another business owner. In summary: The issue was not resolved (roots were visible on camera but not cleared).. out 1300 bucks.. did you get a second opinion and a trenchless option with more appropriate tools was presented and being executed on. There appeared to be a push toward more invasive and costly work... And they couldn't really confirm where the actual blockage was. It was more of a guessing game. Cleanup was far below expectations I was left to handle the aftermath, including cleaning and neighbor impact This may not be everyone's experience, but it was mine. I'll let others decide accordingly. read more

Cameron was great to work with. He was responsive, approachable, and honest throughout the process. He let me know that the issue with the drain in my backyard was bigger than expected, and instead of having me front the full cost of the repair, he helped facilitate the process with my HOA. I really appreciated his professionalism, honesty, and willingness to help get the issue handled the right way. read more

Our faucet wasn't functioning properly, the pressure was low and the hot water mixing valve stopped working completely. Johnny from shellback plumbing did a thorough inspection of the situation and explain that we needed to replace the faucet, so I went and bought the faucet and he came the next day without charging me for the first service call to diagnose the problem and installed the new faucet in record time. Fast, clean and most importantly dependable service from Shellback! Thank you so much Johnny. read more

I needed a sewer backflow replacement. Working fine now. They forgot to replace a bush that was agreed upon during the quote - otherwise 5 stars. I called them to notify. I wasn't in a rush. But Erik literally showed up in an hour and replaced the bush. I will definitely use them again. They stand by their work. read more

The plumber quickly diagnosed that the issue was with our septic and not the plumbing and inspected the septic tank and clean out to find that the issue was downstream of the tank and clean out. Great work and then hot me with $350 bill for half hours work. Said that was min charge, whereas when I scheduled visit they said estimate provided no charge. I wasn't told of min fee. I expected to pay as good work was done but the cost was excessive. read more

Your plumbing technician Moises I believe is honest, straightforward & gave credence to the excellent reviews your clients posted for your company.

We had a pipe off the main leaking outside and called the office on a Monday morning. The office staff was very helpful and sent a plumber to our location that same morning. My husband had dug up the area and found the leak. The irrigation line off the main was not installed properly and appeared to be under pressure, therefore it eventually cracked. Kevin with Shellback worked hard to come up with the best solution. This job took about 4 to 5 hours and then he came back to turn the water back on and check everything. Kudos to Kevin for not being bothered with my husband watching the work. My husband said he learned a few new things. I would say years ago my husband would have made this repair himself. The work entailed being on your knees and bent over the entire time. It is reassuring to know there are professional plumbers when the job is too much. I contacted the office when I could not get the 10% senior discount coupon to print and she said not to worry. They applied the discount without having to be reminded. Shellback Plumbing is a local company and has been easy to work with. We found them a couple of years ago when we had plumbing problems covered under a home warranty. We always requested them when we had a plumbing claim and continued to use them once we no longer renewed the policy. read more

Think I finally found a plumber I can trust. Moises let me when he was on the way and arrived within the window they gave me. Moises was very helpful and took the extra time to explain what he was thinking. When he was done I asked if they bill me or if I pay him and he said there was no charge and to have a nice day. Will definitely call them again and refer them to other people. read more

They are a solid and good plumbing company. The techs were prompt, professional, competent, knowledgeable, and nice.

Was in a serious pinch right before the holiday and we had family in town with a downstairs bathroom giving us a problem. I took to yelp to find someone who could come out that same day and for a good price...Jonathan to the rescue! They quoted us a very fair price to come and auger our toilet up to 6' and he was able to clear it. He stayed and ran it a few times, flushed and made sure it was all good. He was courteous, thorough, and tidy (he wore the shoe booties before coming in which was soooo appreciated we didn't even have to say anything he just did it) Anyways...Shellback Plumbing helped us out the day before the holiday and came out within the hour which was amazing. Definetly recommended read more

Great experience - from the easy (and quick) scheduling to the day of the repair, Shellback made everything go smoothly. I had a couple of sinks that had minor leaks. They were able to use the hardware I purchased (I thought I could do it myself and quickly found I needed help!), and recommended a different type of PVC pipe. It was all done in under an hour and is working like a charm. Thank you so much! read more

Ryan from Shellback Plumbing was amazing. He was able to quickly ID the issue and get it corrected. He was honest and upfront.

Real quick service. They said they'd arrive at 2pm to look at my water heater problem and they arrived on time. Jessie was super polite and professional and presented how he was going to do the replacement confidently. They also moved heavy objects out of the way, which I could not do myself because I'm disabled. Full customer service! Price was competitive with all proposals I obtained. From now on Shellback is my plumber here in Santa Clarita valley! read more

We had water leaking from the ceiling on our first floor and needed help fast. We called Shellback and were able to get an inspection appointment for the very next day. The technician arrived right on time and quickly diagnosed the issue -- a torn toilet ring. He explained everything clearly and was able to fix it on the spot. The service was fast, efficient, and handled with a calm professionalism that really put us at ease. He was polite, respectful, and made what could have been a stressful situation feel manageable. We're so glad we called Shellback and wouldn't hesitate to reach out to them again for any future plumbing needs. Highly recommend! read more

We have used Shellback plumbing multiple times since my first review so this is long overdue. They have been responsive, professional and reasonably priced every time.

I also want to thank Eddy who always sees to answer the calls and also always very polite and professional. Thank you Carlos for providing excellent service! read more

We called this company for help with a drain clog and they were here within 35 minutes. The two guys that came were polite and courteous and were very thorough in explaining the issues and options. They removed the toilet and pulled out a 3-4 foot tree root from the drain! They fixed everything up like new and we couldn't be happier. I've got their number saved in my phone for the next time I have a plumbing issue. read more

On Tuesday, August 26, 2025 I called Shellback plumbing and spoke with Jenny regarding my broken garbage disposal. The tech arrived and introduced himself. I directed him into the kitchen and he checked the garbage disposal. I told him it's been leaking from the bottom of the unit. He checked the unit and discovered it wasn't a bad disposal, it was just the loose flange. He tightened the flange and the garbage disposal was fixed. No more leaks, The tech looked at me and stated "all fix, if you need any future repairs please contact us." Wow, and no charge. I want to thank the tech for his honesty and integrity on my garbage disposal issues. Just a loose flange.
