Anyone I deal business with, I hold them to the absolute highest standards. The plumbing industry is notoriously sloppy and difficult to navigate. I'm extremely cautious on every single item to ensure an iron clad deal. Any time I had a concern Lefty's quickly handled it professionally as a good contractor should. Never once did they get defensive and always produced the official documents/licenses/insurance/adjustments/etc. requested. All to say, I'm tough but this company worked diligently to satisfy me and ended up winning my business. Of course, I cannot stress enough how much homeowner advocacy is important and you must always do your homework to protect yourself, uncover scams and understand what you actually need. However, Lefty's business practices in my experience has been top tier. 10 years in San Diego but 25 years in business overall. Socials shows how the owner operates. read more

Great job, fast and efficient. They also had a special going so it was economical too

I have used this company before and I will continue using this company for future projects if needed . The team comes in and assesses what is going on and looks at every possible solution that could save time money to fix all of your problems. We had an issue with a backed up sink that was going into our laundry room and it was late at night and I can tell you they were here within 30 minutes if that the prices that you would pay for a lot of places would be a lot higher, but I can also tell you just because something is cheaper doesn't mean you're getting the best quality work. The team that worked on our plumbing issues were amazing friendly and trustworthy and let you know everything that was going on with the project so if you ever want quality service, friendly, fast and efficient this is the team. read more

Love these guys. Especially Edgar and the helpers. Value was good. Quality excellent. Would recommend. Had leak in slab. Insurance did not cover it. Put plumbing through house. Big job. Seven days. read more

Our kitchen sink had been clogged for days, and we finally decided to call Lefty's. Angel came out and did an excellent job. He quickly identified the problem was a clogged kitchen drain pipe and replaced the damaged section to fully resolve the issue. He was professional, thorough, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was working perfectly before he left. I would definitely recommend Lefty's to anyone in need of reliable plumbing services! read more

Lefties provided me with a very in depth inspection and consultation for a sewer replacement in my home. Even though I didn't end up using Lefties for this particular project, their customer service and information was second to none. Very helpful and experienced. Lefties will definitely be working on future projects in my home. 100% trustworthy and accommodating. read more

So helpful and friendly. Very knowledgeable and caring for the issue. Eager to help out.

Lefty's Plumbing team was working on various fixes in our main bathroom, and the latest was to fix the shower valve, which eventually had to offer numerous issues but Leo did such a great job very patiently to fix it completely. What a job he did. Thank you a bunch!!! read more

Highly Recommend! I recently bought an older house, and during the inspection, it was flagged that the sewer lines needed a full replacement. I hired this company to handle it, and I'm so glad I did! They ended up replacing all the sewer and water lines in the house, and the entire process took about three weeks. Not only was their pricing very competitive, but what really stood out was the level of service they provided compared to other plumbing companies I talked to. Unlike most plumbing companies, they took the extra step to put everything flooring and drywall back in place after the job was done, which saved me the hassle of coordinating with other contractors. Even better, they used some advanced tools and techniques that allowed them to avoid breaking certain floors and walls that other companies had said had to be torn out. That alone made a huge difference for us. They also went above and beyond by taking care of some extra things for free like installing an expansion tank on the water heater, replacing a bad looking exterior water line, and even adding a fridge water line in the kitchen. One day, we had our washer and dryer delivered to the garage, but the delivery guys refused to install the dryer because there was no venting. The sewer crew was already at the house, and they immediately stepped in and installed a vent on the spot. Problem solved! It's all these little thoughtful things that made this experience such a positive one. On top of everything, every crew member who worked in my house was super friendly. We even had lunch together a few times and shared great conversations. Rafael, the boss, is incredibly easy to talk to and very transparent about everything. This is hands down one of the best contractor experiences I've had. If you're looking for quality work and genuinely good people, don't hesitate to call them! read more

I had a clogged drain and needed it cleared today. It was Sunday at 1:00pm. Place after place (that advertised 24/7) wanted to schedule me for Monday. Very disappointing . Lefty's answered their phone quickly and they were here in an hour! A very fair price too. If you like a quick responding "Say what they mean and do what they say" type of business, then here you are: Lefty's. read more

The staff were great! They kept the whole area clean, even while digging down to the pipes! Answered questions, kept me informed... very professional. I have had a few plumbers over the years, but I will be calling this company back year after year. You can't go wrong with Lefty's! read more

Highlights: i would recommend this company. One day when i turned on the sprinklers right before an out of town trip, i heard a pop and saw a swell of water rapidly rising. When i dug it up it was the mainline into the house. I had shut the valve and fixed a section. Waited till the next day and tested and pop another part of the pipe busted. Leftys was one of the two places i called and cesar came out the same day. He fixed the pipe but when i turned it on the following morning the pipe leaked. Rapheal came out and evaluated it, repaired it and lo and behold the pipe still leaked. Initially i thought their patches and mine had all leaked but that section of pipe was old and bad and just leaked. When Rapheal replaced the whole section, boom no more leaking. Until the next day i saw water in the hole. He came back out and figured out that the water NOW was from the condensation line from the ac which was in close proximity. I tell this whole story because: 1. I was charged once for the pipe repair 2. Rapheal backed up that repair with multiple visits until the problem was solved with no additional cost to me 3. He took a thoughtful approach to trouble shooting and figuring the source of the water 4. He and Cesar were polite and competent and Rapheal was extremely easy to communicate with via phone or text Glad they persisted and appreciate the honesty and thoughtfulness and especially the persistence. He also shared thoughts on future problems which may be cause by trees on the property. I would definitely recommend them. read more

Leo was amazing, our water was off due to a leak. Leo wasn't able to repair the problem immediately, but he did restore our water until the repair was made the next afternoon. What a life saver he is. Thanks a million. There was a bit of a scheduling issue, but all is well. read more

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!! Lefty's Plumbing is CRAZY EXPENSIVE!!! ... Do you due diligence before agreeing to pricing from these guys! They tried to charge $1,000 an hour for basic plumbing work that can be performed by any licensed plumber. They wanted $5000 to do just a half days worth of work. Very disappointed in my experience with Lefty's Plumbing! The business owner is extremely dishonest and preys on his customers for not knowing any better. Read the reviews of other customers who have given Lefty Plumbing a bad review, the reviews speak for themselves. The owner is extremely condescending and overall very rude. I had 5 other licensed and reputable plumbers out to review the scope of work, and every single quote that was received came in under $2,000. Significantly under the $5000 estimate provided by Lefty's Plumbing. I would highly recommend calling any these other licensed plumbing companies: ALMCO, Point Loma Electric & Plumbing, Frankie's Plumbing, Exodus Plumbing or Five Star Plumbing. (YOU WILL BE HAPPY THAT YOU DID NOT ENGAGE IN BUSINESS WITH LEFTY'S PLUMBING.) read more

Leo was excellent. He came out on short notice and handled our situation with complete professionalism. He was efficient, courteous, and did great work. It's rare to find someone so easy to work with--highly recommended. read more

Rafael and Armando provided us great service and great value. My old parent toilet downstairs got clogged and since they have difficulty going up and down stairs, although their schedule is booked for the day, Rafael squeezed us in their schedule as their last stop for the night to ensure that my parents toilet downstairs can have access to their only means of relieving at home. We appreciate the friendly service and most importantly the compassion and care. Thank you so much and more power. God bless read more

Called Lefty's about a valve under my kitchen sink which had been attached to a water filtration device. The valve had a small leak. I was looking for a small plug to plug the line which had led to filter. He asked me to send him a photo of the valve where it was attached under the sink. I did. He explained that I didn't need a plug as another valve allowed a split to the sink and the refrigerator. He told me to take off the second valve that had led to the filter off. He was very patient and his advice worked. He talked himself out of a sale and helped me out. Outstanding service! read more

I had a sink that was clogged for 4 days. I tried EVERYTHING to unclogg it. I called Rafael at Lefty's on Saturday. He sent some guys out the same day, on Saturday to unclogg the sink. SAME DAY!! I had called other services that told me Monday. He came RIGHT AWAY. That shows how his customer service is important to him. That meant something to me. The clogg was fixed in less than 30 minutes. Quick! Lefty's will be my ONLY plumber from here on out. Not to mention I'm left handed so I think that's a sign. THANK YOU FOR PROFESIONAL SERVICE!!!! read more

I called Lefty's when my plumbing backed up into my house at the main sewage line. I discovered this when things were not draining as they should be, and eventually it backed up into my bathtub. Gross. Rafael was out immediately to accurately assess the situation and come up with a plan. A week later and my old cast iron pipes are replaced, cleaning out the root intrusion and making it so I can bathe again. :) The team was great, respectful, communicative, and flexible. Rafael was always there to answer my texts and keep me updated. I would definitely go with Lefty's again for future plumbing needs! read more

Hire them, you won't be disappointed. Rafael is honest and decent and his team does a great job. They are reliable and all so nice and friendly. They redid our main line, and entire plumbing for two new bathrooms. Rafael helped me with landscaping after my driveway needed to be refinished even though he didn't have to. And he helped with a random leak at 9:30 at night. You won't find a better plumbing team! read more

Needed to find someone to help us when we discovered we had a pretty serious leak that we thought originated on in our downstairs bath. After checking further we realized it actually was coming from the upstairs & leaking to the downstairs. It was very wet - a mess. We called & the crew from Leftys was very responsive. We had one estimate for about $20,000 dollars & probably more. Leftys gave us options& we were very impressed they seemed to want to help us solve our problem & not just use inflated prices that our insurance co was going to charge. After reading the company motto we felt very comfortable trusting our repairs with them. The the end of the day both bathrooms are back in service' we have their referral for the drywall person to meet us in a couple days. We are very satisfied & will happily recommend them! read more

They worked quickly and because it was a simple fix had the parts right in the truck. The price was comparable to other repairs I've had done as well . As a property manager who needs reliable subs often, I will be calling on them again because something seems to ALWAYS be breaking. Lol read more

this is my first time using Lefty's Plumbing. I called on a Tuesday and they were able to handle my job the following day. Though they did not arrive in the given time window, when he did arrive Leo was very, very polite and explained things well. I will call them again. KA read more

I had a plumbing emergency that required immediate attention. I had worked with Lefty's in the past and was thrilled to see they have not changed one bit. They responded immediately, promptly located the problem and provided options to correct issues as well as a budget and scope of work. The whole team is extremely professional & goes out of their way to provide excellent service while plumbing issues (of this scope) can be quite stressful for homeowners. Don't ever change Lefty's!! We need Lefty's to continue to set the standard for your honorable profession. read more

I have had a backed up tub adn sink for a few weeks hoping it would magically fix itself. When it did not, I checked Yelp for a good plumber and found Lefty's Plumbing. I sent a request for service in the morning and received a callback almost immediately. A tech showed up about 2 hours later and solved both issues. Their communication with me was excellent! I received a confirmation email for my appointment, and a call when the team was on their way. I highly recommend Lefty's for your plumbing needs! read more

Prompt professional services at appropriate prices. The personal are friendly and respectful. Don't think of using anyone else
