    Ernesto and his team. Electric water heater. Clean look.  Beyond happy with their work.
    Linda S.

    Wow! I highly recommend Ernesto and his team. Punctual, clean and they went above and beyond to leave me a clean look on my electric water heater. Very humble and military friendly company. I love that they didn't just change the water heater but also fixed piping, vents, and left it spotless. This is quality work, above and beyond attention to detail Happy to have used them. You can tell they pride themself in their work. I chose them based on their Yelp reviews and happy I went with them

    Called Ernesto when my parents' dishwasher was leaking and he was able to quickly diagnose the problems over the phone and send his technician out for repair. He was kind enough to offer my parents a senior discount. This is actually my fourth time using V max since we're very happy with the quick response for repair and professionalism. Thank you!!

    I am re-doing my bathrooms. The renovation will include "gutting" the bathrooms and moving the plumbing lines a little (raise the shower heads, perhaps moving the plumbing to one sink a little. Do you do this kind of work?

I…read morecontacted my usual plumber, but when he didn't arrive the next morning, I began looking for another company since we had to shut off the water to prevent further flooding. Carlos came out to assess the situation and explained that his team could start the next morning at 8 AM. He said they would begin with leak detection to locate the source, then proceed with the repair. The work involved cutting through my granite flooring and into the slab. Before moving forward, I asked if he was licensed and if he could work with my home warranty company and follow their procedures. He confirmed both. Because the work took place on a Sunday, I wasn't able to obtain pre-approval from the warranty company, which led to some complications. I paid by personal check and received a handwritten receipt under the name "SoCal Plumbing." When I submitted it, the warranty company indicated that the license associated with that name was expired and not tied to a plumbing business. I followed up with Carlos, and he provided a different license under the name "G Del Plumbing and Rooter," which was valid. Initially, he and his team were helpful in trying to provide the necessary documentation, although the process took time due to back-and-forth with the warranty company. The warranty company eventually agreed to partially reimburse the cost but required a final invoice showing both the diagnosis and proof of payment. The invoices I received continued to show a balance due, and as the 30-day submission deadline approached, I attempted to follow up multiple times by phone and text but did not receive a response. As a result, I may not be able to complete my claim and get partially reimbursed for this emergency. On the day of the repair, I also asked about installing a water pressure valve and was told there would be a follow-up, but I did not hear back. Overall, the repair work was completed, the toilet was reinstalled as promised, and the team was punctual. I was quoted a range for the price and of course the actual amount was the highest price in that range. However, communication and documentation could have been more consistent, especially given the warranty requirements. My advice is to not pay in full if there are outstanding items that they need to do.

She spoke…read moreto one of their plumbers to see, then gave me the number of that plumber and said I could call to coordinate and explain the issue better. I called and spoke to Matthew. He was super kind, courteous, and empathetic. I told him about how the previous plumber came in with a special wand tool, told us we had major gas leaks, that we needed to take care of it immediately, and quoted us $17,000 for it ($15,000 with "discount"). He also said "I normally have to report you to the gas company so they can come shut it down, but I'm not going to. You just have to make sure to take care of it right away." I knew that sounded insane, so that's why I looked for a second opinion, while also doing due diligence in case there was an actual leak. Matthew was apologetic, saying that's unfortunate. He asked straight up if it was Prodigy Plumbing, which it was! He said he doesn't like to bad mouth other companies, but that he's heard of similar situations from other people. He said he wanted to help me out, and would be there in 30. He was super warm. I asked if he didn't mind wearing the boot covers, that I had some in the home, and he pulled them out of his pocket because he was already prepared. He took his time to thoroughly explain what the process looked like. He also said they would do the leak test for free because he wanted to make the bad situation better and knew I needed help. We discovered that one of the shutoff valves was behind the stacked washer dryer, and the only way to access it was to pull them out. He said he'd likely need another guy to help with that, but they could come the following day. We booked. Matthew was joined by Richard and Robert, who were also excellent. Together they got everything done in a short time. Full leak test revealed NO LEAKS! I asked Matthew what the charge would be and he reiterated it was no charge, he just wanted to make sure I got this taken care of. I insisted but he stuck by his original offer. Needless to say, I have found my new plumbers. The absolute best experience I have had with a plumber thus far. Oh and as a bonus, after they cleaned everything up, Matthew took me to the main gas meter and pointed out a few issues. The earthquake shutoff valve wasn't properly mounted, and the pipes on the city side were hand tight. He told me exactly what I needed to do and who I needed to call for that, and gave me a rough estimate on price. Could not be happier with Beach Plumbing, they are the real deal.

My heart dropped at this point because I had no one to call and refused to call those many flyers that get dropped off once a week in the mailbox. I called a neighbor who recommend Primo Plumbing immediately and I will be forever grateful he did. I spoke to Jordan who calmly listened and more or less held my hand through the phone as I explained what my issues were. It did not help that I was in excruciating pain as I just had surgery a few days prior. He understood I made this phone call with a sense of trepidation and that I felt at their mercy (it was late afternoon). He calmed my apprehension, told me about the family business, his father, and his own work ethic and what he could do to help. I felt so much better! Fast forward the next day, Steven showed up with the most friendliest of personalities and I wholeheartedly put my trust in his hands. He worked tirelessly(I could hear him grunting), kept me informed every step of the way, showed me what he had found (see below), respected my home, promised AND delivered he'd have me up and running soon. Calling Primo Plumbing has been one of the best decisions ever and will recommend them each chance I get and will soon use them on another project! There are definitely still some GREAT family owned businesses we can trust out there! *Great Customer Service *Genuine People *Full Transparency *Full Explanations *Professional and Kind

I especially want to recognize Darryl, the technician who handled the repair. Darryl was fantastic. He was extremely knowledgeable, professional, and took the time to walk us through exactly what had happened with the pipe and what needed to be done to fix it properly. He explained everything in a way that made sense, answered all of our questions patiently, and you could tell he takes real pride in his work. What stood out most was Darryl's honesty and attention to detail. As the repair progressed, he made sure everything was addressed correctly and never tried to push unnecessary work. It really felt like he was looking out for us as homeowners rather than just trying to get the job done quickly. Plumbing problems are never fun, but Darryl and the SJ Plumbing team made the entire process smooth and stress-free.

Even though this project is still in progress and only at the diagnostic stage, I already feel very confident about a good outcome because of their communication and professionalism. Most importantly, they genuinely care about their customers--something I feel is missing from many other businesses. Thank you, Sean. Thank you, Darryl. Highly recommend SJ Plumbers.
