    New Toilet (1 of 2)
    Jocy C.

    It's about time that I write a review for California Plumbing. Background: I had purchased a condo in December 2022. There were lots of "old" things in the condo that needed fixing. At the time, I had homeowners warranty, so I had used that to replace the parts within the toilet. The home inspector had already mentioned at the time that toilets needed replacing at some point. I only knew that the condos were built in the 1980s. I just didn't want to spend the money if I didn't need to yet! The Call & Quote: Fast forward to May 2024 (about 1.5 years later), one of my toilets finally started leaking again. I had already decided to just get both toilets replaced. A quick Yelp search, and I found California Plumbing with 5 stars and over 400+ reviews. A quick call - and they sent someone out fairly quickly to do a quote. *Note - as a female, I totally appreciated that they send a picture of the technician that they are sending to my house*. I also appreciated that the technician gave me 2 quotes (one for fixing the broken parts and one for replacing toilets all together). The broken parts were antiquated, so it would have taken a while to find without guarantee that it may break again in another 1.5 years or so. Service: Since I had 2 toilets, I wasn't in a rush to get it replaced that same day or next day (even though California Plumbing offers that service). I just called and made appointment for that following week. The day of, 2 technicians show up. Toilets were replaced one by one. They cleaned up everything (threw out the old toilets, swept the floors, etc). No mess was left behind! Cost: Cost of toilets & installation was within the range (based on a Google Search / Forbes Article). Conclusion: 100% Professional. 100% Recommend. THANK YOU!

    New water pressure regulator and new water main shut off
    Ken W.

    My mom and I had a leak in the bathroom pipe that affected adjacent walls and floor. I reached out to a few different plumbers to get their opinions. California Plumbing sent out Hilario for an inspection. I was really pleased with his knowledge when he took a look at the house. Some other plumbers automatically assumed it was a roof leak because it had rained a couple days but Hilario actually took the time to check out other possible options regarding the leak. He noticed our house did not have a water pressure regulator which is important especially in older houses. Other plumbing companies were charging $1500 for a water pressure regulator installment where as with California Plumbing it only cost under $1000. I was really pleased with his inspection so I decided to go ahead and schedule a leak repair with him. Hilario was able to find the leak pretty quickly. He got the leak repaired and installed a new water pressure regulator to the house. California Plumbing also said the repair is under a year warranty which is a major relief. I'm am extremely satisfied with Hilario's work and California Plumbing. I definitely recommend California Plumbing for any of your plumbing needs

    Ask the Community - California Plumbing

    How often should water heaters be serviced or replaced?

    Water heaters need to be serviced every year. Replacement is more flexible, it could be 5 to 12 years but as a piece of friendly advice if you do the maintenance every year and you have no problem, don't replace it!

    Do you offer any environmentally friendly or energy-saving plumbing solutions?

    Yes we are offering tankless or heating pump that saves a lot of water. Great for your water bill and the environment!

    What should I do if I suspect a gas leak?

    Turn off the gas meter immediately and call us at (858) 727-3295.

    What are common signs of plumbing problems that homeowners should watch out for?

    Low Water Pressure, drain backing up or recurring smell from drains or sinks are all signs of a clog, leak, or other issue that likely requires a professional plumber to help solve.

    Do you offer plumbing for commercial properties or only residential?

    Yes, California Plumbing offers residential and commercial plumbing throughout San Diego. Thanks for asking Lauren!

    Has anyone had them do a gas line to a barbeque or pool heater repair?

    Okay, so I didn't even call Proper HVAC... I met them by accident!…read more My neighbor's A/C completely gave up on life on a hot day--like full-on "I quit" mode. It was blazing outside, and these guys show up and get straight to work like pros. No chaos, no complaining, just calm, confident, and clearly knew exactly what they were doing. So... I'm outside being a little nosy (as one does), watching the whole thing go down. I poke my head over my fence and I realized I literally interrupted their lunch... sorry... And instead of being annoyed or rushing, they were still super cool, professional, and took their time helping out. Who does that?! Un chingo de Respect!!! So I ask them if they would be able to take a quick look at my system, and they didn't hesitate. No pressure, no upselling, just honest advice and good energy. Customer service? Top tier!!! Work quality? Solid!!! Overall vibe? 10/10!!! They talked me through the issue my unit had and how much they can do it for and after my wife approved the expenses (cuz she handles all my money, as she's allowed to do because she makes more than I do..., snd because she knows more because she reminds me how she has a few damn degrees). I'm kidding, but she does have a lot of degrees and makes more money than I do. So they fixed my neighbors A/C and mine in no time. Mine was literally in 20-30 minutes! If your A/C is struggling or acting up, don't wait until you're sweating through your sheets--call Proper HVAC. These guys know what they're doing. Thanks to Luis and David for the solid hook up! I appreciate you guys fixing my A/C unit during your lunch break.
