Arrived on time and did excellent work! Very good value and even replaced our toilet filler tube and handle for a very minor additional charge. Highly recommend! read more

Carter Fraser responded to our request for leak detection. Carter immediately started his evaluation and found the source of the leak. Carter was very professional and responsive to the situation. I can't thank him and Vortex Plumbing for the prompt response and service to our request. I will continue to work with Vortex Plumbing in the future. read more

I appreciate the quick response and the updates from their main office. The tech showed up on time, knew exactly what the problem was with my water heater, and gave me some good options to consider immediately and in the future. It's not always easy to find professional and trustworthy plumbers so I really value how this company operates. I'll definitely be recommending them to others. read more

Martin from Vortex helped determine the leak was on the city side, while another plumbing company was ready to do work for 7k. Thank you Martin! I will be referring Vortex to others. read more

Our guy was awesome. Total character, super nice, knew what he was doing and did it fast.

Martin and Miguel are the best I've had service my home from their team. They advise on the differences between necessary and unnecessary replacements. They work quickly and efficiently, good pricing for parts and labor, clean and polite which is all important to me. Good guys!

I've unfortunately had to call in a plumber more than I'd have liked to over the past few months, but I'm so happy I landed on Vortex Plumbing. Not only are they responsive and easy to work with, but the entire team has been so pleasant and nice. Calling in and talking to the amazing Lorraine, I've been able to schedule a few visits and each time the technicians were excellent - thanks Eli and Martin for the help! read more

Russ made my shower functional again He has done other work for me, some privately and some through my HOA

We had a cold slab leak in our condo and Paul with Vortex Plumbing went above and beyond to fix it. He had to drain water heater and remove it to get to the manifold and put it back. He has great knowledge and expertise and did the job right!!! We are extremely happy!!! I recommend Vortex Plumbing. read more

Called the day before to schedule a garbage disposal installation and was quoted $117/hour for labor + a charge of $25 for the first hour. The lady said that these jobs typically take an hour, so I quickly calculated that this should cost about $140 ($120 after the mailer coupon), sounds good! The plumber arrived the next day, did a pretty good job (although some time was wasted going back and forth several times trying to find the correct part size), but finished the job in 1 hour 7 min despite the back and forth. He was also very pleasant, which is the only reason I'm giving them 2 stars instead of 1. However, when he came back with a $200 bill 15 min later, I questioned where the discrepancy was. It turns out that they start the clock as soon as they arrive on your driveway, and the 15 minutes it takes to write up the bill is also charged at $117/hour. I called their office and expressed that I should only be billed for the time spent on the plumbing job, the driveway and admin/paperwork time should definitely not be on my dime, especially not at $117/hour. The moron over the phone had the audacity to say "Well maybe you he was at your door for 20 minutes waiting for you to open the door". No buddy, this wasn't the case and I have videos to prove that I answered the door in under 15 seconds. He then said "Bro, if you wanna be so cheap about it, go ahead it's fine." YOU'RE trying to charge your customers 40% more than the quoted price through shady business practices, yet I'M the cheap one? Riigggghhhht. Here's a free tip: why don't you be more transparent about pricing and stop trying to nickel and dime your customers, asshole! I was planning to hire them to replace my water heater because the plumber was very friendly, but after experiencing such unprofessional behavior from their management, I will never use this shady company again. There are lots of other good companies out there. Buyers beware! read more

this company is a crook in the first degree, BEWARE!!!!, they charge trip fee 175 one way, so for just going out, they charge 350, aside from the issue,,,,,, be careful, because they are smooth talker, like they care, but all they care about is how much they can get out of you..... if i can only post foul language,,, this company is just plain typical crooks,,,,, BEWARE!!!!!! read more

Plumber was on time, while I rushed out at lunchtime to meet him. He spotted an extra issue of a leaking spigot, which I wasn't even thinking of. It was clear that he was on top of things, and not just padding his bill. He finished the job timely, and no problems with the job. I think the the charge was within reason, and around the initial hourly quote. Maybe slightly more, but I'm happy enough with the outcome, that I don't mind it. I provided most of the materials, and he had no issue with it. Will probably call him back out for a different job sometime. read more

We had an emergency toilet back up situation on a Saturday night, it was a disaster and already had a plumber come out and say they weren't able to fix the problem and that we'd have to find somewhere else to stay. Luckily, Vortex Plumbing was able to send someone out, on a Saturday night, thank goodness! Their plumber, Eric, showed up and couldn't have been nicer and more helpful! He wore a mask the whole time, he was super knowledgeable, and very friendly. He took a look around the property and got right to work on the pesky toilet. Within 30 seconds he was able to identify and solve the issue. We are so thankful for the awesome service we received, we can't thank you enough for fixing this emergency on such short notice! I would highly recommend this plumbing service to anyone. read more

Full transparency, I had no intention on hiring Vortex because previously they basically ripped me off by taking over 6 hours to install a kitchen sink and 2 faucets (they charge over $100 per hour).... that was literally it, they didn't have to install a garbage disposal or anything else, AND on top of it the work turned out to be Mickey-Moused as one of the faucets is slightly crooked and the other started coming undone from the sealant 3 months later. Needless to say, it was a bad experience. HOWEVER, after dealing with being rescheduled (for not putting up notices) and then a cancellation on Vortex's part, I didn't want to encounter another possible reschedule due to not being able to line up the plumbing company I actually wanted with Vortex's arrival since Vortex has to come out anyway because they are the only ones who can shut off the water. So I decided to give them another shot and that's when we came across Paul.... and he was AWESOME!!! Super knowledgeable, experienced, and fast! The work was done in less than 2 hours. I only recommend Vortex to specifically refer to Paul Anderson. I will only be using Vortex again because of him. Thanks for your good work Paul! read more

Called to fix a short length of copper hot water pipe that developed a leak. They were very responsive, courteous, and professional. Martin was great to work with, and did very nice solder work. Definitely will call them again for any plumbing needs. read more

So glad my bro-in-law recommended this place to us. They are very quick to respond, courteous and reasonably priced. Now I have a reliable plumber to go to when I am in need of one. Isn't a reliable plumber one of those necessities in life, like a doctor and a car mechanic?! Lol. read more

I called Vortex Plumbing as my usual plumbing company was unable to come clear a clog for a couple of days and recommended I try Vortex Plumbing. They were able to come out the same day. I received a courtesy call from them informing me the plumber was running behind and wanted to make sure I was ok waiting a little longer. The plumber arrived and quickly got to work clearing the clogged drain. He ran a long snake down the drain three times to make sure he got all the crud out of the pipe. Once he was satisfied that the drain was clear, he cleaned up the tub and suggested trying a drain hair catcher to prevent the problem from happening again. He was very polite and courteous throughout his time in my home. Vortex Plumbing has a new satisfied customer. They were recommended by another plumbing company, provided excellent customer service, and has courteous and thorough employees. I will be calling them the next time I need a plumber. Thank you Vortex Plumbing! read more

Best plumbing company I have used. Paul Anderson is professional, responsible and efficient. After hour call arrived on time and resolved issue promptly. read more

Great customer service and great work by the Vortex team. Had some issues with old plumbing and they were able to take care of it at a great price. Everything was neatly done and cleaned up. Highly recommend Vortex. read more

I had a few experiences Vortex and thought Russell was a good knowledgeable plumber, but the last experience with another Vortex plumber was terrible, and they don't care about their customers. Plumber came to check a soft spot on the ceiling and within less than 15 minutes determined it to be caulking rather than a leak, so no work was done. I asked for a bill and he didn't give me one saying that the office would bill me later but it would probably be nothing because they had another job in the area. I am not used to plumbers giving freebies, do I emailed Debra at Vortex to note what the plumber did and that I was expecting a bill from them. Never heard back from anyone, nor received a bill in the mail. Apparently they billed my HOA $285 for TWO HOURS of work for TWO PLUMBERS. I called and emailed Vortex several times and was promised a response on one Friday and then on the next Friday - basically they think that billing inquiries should take weeks to address. No sense of reasonable timeframes. Three weeks later no one called me. One of the times I called I actually got Debra on the phone and she said that she was aware of my concern but she was training someone and didn't have time to deal with me. How's that for customer service? No time to deal with a customer that she billed incorrectly. She never called back by the end of the week when she promised to, so in 5 days she couldn't find any time to deal with a wrong bill issue. I tried to get in touch with the owner via LinkedIn but was also ignored. There are plenty plumber around, so they don't have my business anymore, you can give them your business, but if anything goes wrong, they may not have time to deal with you. After all they have more important office stuff to deal with than to work with a wronged customer. read more

We have lived in Rancho Cucamonga since 1978 and have used many plumbers thru the years. We have a few unfortunate stories. Vortex Plumbing in Chino was recommended to us and we have been using them for a few years now. Vortex is a family owned operated company. The Vortex Plumbers are not working on commission, they fix what needs to be fixed and that's it. They do not push unneeded work. We have always been satisfied with their plumbing work, recently having a difficult toilet problem. The owner Eric came out and fixed the mystery problem. We will never use any plumbing company other then Vortex read more

Our plumber, Eric, showed up with mask on and went right to work. He replaced our bathroom sink and had no problems. This company has great prices. Cost was about 1/4 of another plumbing company that quoted us. We have used this company for other needs and always have been very satisfied. Definitely recommend using this company. read more

running toilet. Plumber came out charge 172. and also changed connections screws that connect toilet to tank. Did so without asking me first. Long story short toilet leaked, and he came out 2 more times and each time said it was fixed. but not. water leaks on floor. When I call they give me runaround and have never come back to fix problem. Horrid service and work. read more

BEWARE of Vortex hourly charge as they will slow down their work to charge you more!!! Super slow Mike and his helper (trainee) charged me for 2 hrs of job to replace a shower handle cartridge - (2 workers 2 hours $214 labor only). That includes 40 min trip to Home Depot which is across the street from my home on Euclid/Riverside, 30 min to check any more leak after job completion and writing the invoice - that's more than an hour! I thought having 2 workers would speed up the job - but no- it seems Mike is training the other worker. I complained unsuccessfully. DO NOT USE VORTEX!!! read more

Vortex plumbing was awesome, I called them they came out that day, assessed the job, Paul and Eric were informative and skilled they capped off the pipes, rerouted the plumbing, cleaned up their mess and their price was great. They saved us! We will use them for all our plumbing needs. read more

The water main that services our townhome community was broken by a tree in the January 21 - 22, 2022 windstorm leaving our 60 residences with no water. California Arbor Care came on Saturday and removed the tree. Vortex Plumbing came Sunday morning and worked all day and into the evening to make the repair. Both of these companies went above and beyond to minimize, as much as could possibly be expected, to minimize the inconvenience to our residents. read more

Paul from Vortex came out on New Year's Day to fix a broken pipe that was spraying all over. He was very personable and did a fantastic job, with a reasonable price. Would definitely recommend this company! read more

My grandmas water started backing up in her kitchen sink on Christmas Day. We called vortex and they had someone out there within a couple hours to fix the problem. Was very impressed with their quick response and ability to fix it so fast! read more

I've used Vortex Plumbing on two different occasions. Both experiences were very good from start to finish. The employees that manage the appointments are thorough and polite. Both times we used Vortex, they sent Patrick. He was punctual, personable, and thorough. The first time, there was a leak in the ceiling of our garage. Patrick explained the entire process before he began cutting away at the damaged dry wall. He determined the cause of the leak and came up with a solution right away. The second time Patrick came out, it was to repair a twisted/damaged hose spigot in our back yard. Just like the first visit, he thoroughly explained the process before getting started. He was in and out of here in no time. I will definitely be using Vortex Plumbing again in the future. read more

Used Votex several times. Good job at a reasonable price. Good work. I reccomend them to my family and friends.

Russell did a great and thorough job snaking two clogged lines. Not in a rush to move on, but made sure problems were solved. And cleaned up the areas well after finished, not something all plumbers want to stop and do. Charges by the hr plus parts required. We will use him again if ever necessary. read more

Miguel knew exactly what to do. He helped solve and fix a months-old problem. He was professional, on-time, and cordial. Thank you Miguel!

He fumbled around for an hour saying he didn't know WHAT part he needled even though that was ESTABLISHED IN THE BEGINNING! Still I was charged the hourly rate. I feel cheated. This company used to be really good but now I HAVE MY DOUBTS DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND FIND ANOTHER PLUMBER ! read more

Thank you for your help Paul. You are awesome. He knows everything very well and fixed everything. Our kitchen sink was totally clogged up. But!! Paul Anderson who has magic hands fixed everything!! read more

My go to plumbers!!! Today was my second experience using Vortex. My first time was with Paul for a slab leak, second time was with Mike. I thought Paul was good...Mike was equally as good. Very thorough and a bit of a perfectionist ( which is a good thing ). My appointment was at 9am and he was here at 9am. I had 4 things going on and he saved the hardest for last. Mike was professional the entire time and I never had a doubt my issues would be fixed. They have become my go to plumbers from now on. I definitely recommend them. read more

Vortex is prompt, courteous and clean. They submitted the best bid for our Water heater installation in 2015 and did an excellent job. When the drainage valve failed on a saturday afternoon at 1:00 P.M. the Plumber Patrick answered immediately, juggled a busy schedule to come over and solved the problem. Every time we call them they respond promptly, make an effort to accommodate schedules and provide competent, professional, courteous service. The negative reviews I read here are truly puzzling. And, by the way, the other plumber we called never called back. read more

We noticed what appeared to be possible leak on the downstairs ceiling. Since the master bath is right above the area, we contacted Vortex to help assess the situation. Scheduling was easy and the associate arrived and almost immediately located the problem and discussed the needed repairs. Once the parts were available (the next day) he returned and repaired the old plumbing, showing exactly what he was doing step-by-step. He was so professional, courteous and even made sure that the surrounding furniture and rugs were covered before working and throughly cleaned the area before leaving. Labor and parts were very reasonable. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this company (or use them again if needed). read more

This company has been INCREDIBLE!!! They are so fast to get us an appointment and their workers are so sweet and the best part is there's NO BS!! They have come through for us so many times from toilet back ups , a big project in our garage. They are honest and work quick and efficiently! We love Paul and mike! read more
