I called Speed Plumbing due to a pipe bursting under my home. Water was everywhere and when I called, the owner Mr. Lee who is always very helpful and assured me everything will be fine. They arrived in a timely manner and was very professional. They replaced the pipes and cleared all the water from under my home. I would certainly continue to use this company for all my plumbing needs. The cost was affordable. Thank you, Speed Plumbing. read more

This will be my go to plumbing company. I had a pleasant experience with them when i telephone for service. the quality of the work meets my expectations and the cost was reasonable. Thank you for your service read more

Overcharging and you will have to keep calling them back for things they either forgot to fix or forgot to tell you what you may need!!!!!!! I called a different company and got a better rate!!! read more

My multi-unit friend uses this plumbing service. I had a backup. He called on my behalf and had it arranged for them to snake the drain for $75. I didn't hear from them Day 1. I called my friend, who cussed at the incompetence, then gave me another reference. While we were on the phone, they called. I confirmed for the next day. He arrives with attitude. Two of them: one doing the work, the other watching. Snaked, he runs the water for 2 seconds, declares it done, I pay, he leaves. Well, when he came I was working (from home), and didn't do the thorough check. The next day, I let the water out of the tub, and same issue--but my Mom just passed, so I let 2 weeks go by. Meanwhile, no baths (using the other restroom shower). I take a bath and remember... but now there's a leak with the slow drainage! Come to find out, when he snaked, he didn't replace the washer. He had to come back out to snake again, and replace the washer so there wouldn't be a leak to my first floor! read more

I have been under my place a few times and I'm skinny,plus digging a 9 foot trench ,replacing an old sewer line Speed Plumbing earned their money. read more

See all

Well, might be on speed but nothing like speed plumbing. Hold on the bell just rang....I'm back, guess what? It wasn't them. The water is up to my waist now... If someone wanted to hide a fish/human hybrid (like in that Guillermo del Toro movie), I've got a bedroom in my two-bedroom apartment ;) (Edit 1) Sorry, found a roommate on craigslist. Still waiting for the plumber. (Edit 2) So, the fish/human hybrid didn't survive... so...the room is available again!!! :) read more

Speed Plumbing 2000 - Plumbing Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I had a very bad experience with the owner (Lee). First of all he is over priced. Secondly, he is disrespectful to women and he has a nasty mouth. He should not be in business. I would not recommend him to anyone. read more

I wish I could give more stars Lee is an amazing individual, I contacted his company through yelp he came right away we had a pipe burst underground Lee got right to work on it without hesitation to quickly repair our issue, our cement had to be broken up in order to locate the source of the problem once it was located and the pipe was repaired Lee repaired the cement ( which had color) and matched it back perfectly Lee is now our go to plumber for our Home owners association. Thank you Lee for being on time and informative and professional. read more

Horrible how have this place been in business I dont know ghetto hangs up on you half azz installation I will never ever if this is the last plumbing service on this entire planet will never call them again read more

My hot water heater went out in my Mom's home, I was at my wit's end! I remembered Speed Plumbing as I have used years ago. I was relieved that this family business that has been around from the 60's was still thriving. When I called I was greeted by a sweet, calming and professional voice that was reassuring. The work (installation of a new water heater) was outstanding and completed in a short time! I will truly recommend Speed Plumbing 2000 for your plumbing needs! read more

Nobody wants to call a plumber, but if you need one you certainly want a good one. Lee at Speed Plumbing fits the bill. Knowledgeable, polite, punctual, and great rates. On top of that, he's VERY clean and considerate of your property. So many home contractors come in and tear your place up. Leaving behind a huge mess at best, and damaged property at worst. Each time Lee and his crew have come to our house they've been very mindful of the gardening around the house, and when they left, they cleaned up everything - leaving our place even tidier than they found it! I'm not certain where their service area covers, but we're in Mar Vista, and I know he also makes calls in Santa Monica. I can't recommend them highly enough. One last note...this Yelp review is just about their only web presence. I even checked the site listed on Lee's card, and it's not working. Fear not...web savvy or not, they know their plumbing! read more

When my washing machine overflowed it was the last straw.! I had been trying to fix my slow plumbing on my own, but I was tired of fooling around with it, so I called Speed Plumbing. I thought I was going to have to have my main line snaked as well as the line from the washier, but Lee checked and found that I didn't have the problem with the washing machine anymore! I didn't believe it because I had just checked it earlier that day, so he filled it up to it's fullest and ran it again, and NO PROBLEM..!! Apparently the work I had done worked! Then he checked and told me the only problem I actually had was the bathtub. I told him that I didn't agree. I still thought it was running slow because of the main line, He insisted and told me the tub was the only problem I had, and after he ran the snake the plumbing is running great. So I am very happy that the problem is fixed and I saved at least about 90$ at the same time. read more

Dill was awesome and so sweet. He fixed my showers drain so fast and after talking to him, he left me with smile. Thank you mr. Dill read more

Absolutely terrible. They didnt show up to an appointment ( that they never called to cancel, I had to call them to see why), when I called they offered no explanation at all. 2 days later they finally show up hours late to the appointment they set. Did nothing and left. When questioned about it I was given nothing but threats and attitude. Yes threats to " show up there and handle this like a man". Guess what, men handle the job given to them not back out of their responsibilities and try to thug their way out of guilt. Boycott, contact the bbb, do not spend your money here. Let's as a community put this poor excuse for a black owned business out of business. It's making us look bad. read more

Just awful. I called them to fix a plugged main line. They came to the house.I have a large event today. 80 people arriving. Backed up plumbing and two toilets blocked. They came and saw the issue and then left the house without telling my contact person at the house. The fact they would leave me hanging and the plumber would just take off without saying anything is unbelievably unprofessional. read more

The thing to keep in mind is that they are called speed plumbing, not quality plumbing. We hired them for a leak in the backyard and an obstructed sewer line, which was rendering the toilets unusable. The leak was close to the water main shutoff for the property, and since existing pipe was old and corroded, they replaced some of the old piping to fix the leak. But they literally stopped within two feet of the shutoff valve at a 45 degree joint (their plumbing strategy for leaks is to replace plumbing out to the nearest joint). That left us with two feet of corroded 60 year old piping between two newer pieces of plumbing. It didn't look like the splicing between the new pipe and old pipe would last very long, so we later got another plumber to finish the final two feet to the main. The sewer line was snaked but it was discovered that the obstruction was caused by tree roots and thus had to be excavated and replaced. The section of sewer which had to be replaced was a clean-out plug section which for some reason had not been brought to the surface when the house was originally built. A quality job would have been to replace it and bring that clean out plug up to the surface so that it could be used. They did not present us with the knowledge of the plug or an option to have it brought up, which means at some point we will have to excavate that area again should we need to access the sewer from that location. Unfortunately, I had leaned these things from a handyman after the work had been done. They do respond quickly, and they did stop the leak and made the toilets flush again. But apparently they like to do the type of work that brings them return business. read more

Don't call these guys for a broken hot water heater unless you want to pay for a brand new one! The day I moved into my new condo the gas company told me there was a problem with my hot water heater and the pilot light wouldn't stay lit. The handyman my Realtor suggested looked at the photos we sent him and said it should be a quick fix and thought he knew the part that needed to be replaced. Unfortunately, he was busy and couldn't come out the same day, so we called these guys instead. The plumber, Lee, before he even took a look said it'd probably need to be replaced for around $1300, but I should probably get a bigger water heater, so maybe $1800. He took 2 minutes to confirm what the gas company guy said, charged $95 and said he'd get back to me with a quote. When asked about replacing just the broken part he said he couldn't figure out who the manufacturer was, that they didn't have that sort of thing at Home Depot anyway, that it would probably take a long time to figure out what to order and to get it shipped, that it'd be faster just to replace the heater. Later I looked on the heater and the manufacturer was Rheem, a quick web search showed me the part that is almost always responsible for this problem, and the local Home Depot did, in fact, have the thermocouple for it in stock. When I still hadn't heard back from them by the next afternoon (after a cold morning shower), I called and got a message relayed from Lee that it was going to take him some more time to research a part online and maybe he'd get to it tonight or tomorrow, they couldn't really tell me when I'd be getting a quote. At this point, I contacted the handyman again and he came over and replaced the part and within 20 minutes had my hot water heater running again and charged me $150. So basically Lee and the company were playing me for a sucker to get more money, no doubt because I'm a single woman who was exhausted from the move and needed an emergency repair. So, call my new favorite handyman Freddy instead: (213) 407-7959. read more

I have decided I've had enough of this company! I've used them a number of times and have been way too tolerant. I'm done. There is a severe lack of customer service that runs from top to bottom here. With rooter calls I've had to call them back sometimes a day later because they failed to solve the real problem. I've been made a low priority on call backs, sometimes waiting a couple of days for them to return, therefor having tenants or clients have to endure sewer blockage issues. Recently had Greg perform some drain work and bathroom remodel work...his attitude was even worse than the quality of his work, which was awful and required bringing in another plumber to fix. I've learned my lesson- this was a true nightmare experience, which left numerous people frustrated and angry, beyond repair. read more

I called this company to unclog a bathtub drain. They tried to snake the drain and broke through the drain pipe, sending a tub full of water into the condo unit below mine. They guy then left and told the tenant "there's a leak in the wall you should have fixed". After numerous calls, I spoke to the guy that did the work and he acknowledged he broke the pipe but said he's not responsible. When I asked why he didn't stay to fix the pipe he said he's not a licensed plumber and that he's "just the rooter guy". I'd have to call to schedule a real plumber to fix the damage he caused on a Friday night. The condo association was forced to find another company that night and pay thousands to fix the damage read more

I called Speed plumbing on Wednesday, June 16, my sink in the kitchen been stopped up and slow going down off and on for long time. I live in an apartment building, The owner has his people unstopping it, in two or three days later it will stop back and slowing down, this went on for a while. I got real sick of that, so I decided, I was going to call a plumber myself. So, I went on yelp and start going the plumbers reviews. There a bad reviews in just about all of the plumbers I look at. So, I start calling them and they quoting me prices anywhere between $75-$120. The average price to charge to unclog a sink, all you have to do is run a snake down it is $65 at the most. One plumber I called, wanted to come out and see the clog, before they even quoted anything to me. So I asked them how much he think it would be, he say about $120. So, I called about two or three more and they quoted me between. $75-$80. So I ran across Speed Plumbing, and I called them and they gave me a quote of $49.50. I called about 1:30 PM, and they gave me a window between 2pm - 6pm. They called me back 40 minutes later, and told me that the plumbing was on his way. He arrived about 2:30pm, it took him about 40 minutes to unstop the sink. He, ran the snake through two times to make sure it was completely unclog. The man volunteered to clean up behind himself. That was four days ago and I'm very satisfied with the service I received from Speed Plumbing. I really expected to pay much more than $49.50. I will use them in the future. read more

Awesome experience. Speed Plumbing 2000 was able to give me the service I really needed. I had been having problems with my kitchen sink for a while and Speed Pluming 2000 was able to take care of it in no time. They arrived well with in the estimated time that was given to me by the dispatcher (who was extremely helpful and polite). No only did they fix the problem but they explained to me what the real problem was and how I could prevent it the future. What I appreciated the most was when they needed to bring the equipment in the house for the service they were very considerate of keeping my home clean. And if there was any dirt or residue left over they gladly took care of it without leaving me to do it. read more

What I appreciated most more than the quality service and quick turn around time was that upon arrival Lee had two young black men with him whom he was training. They both were will dressed, respectful, and knew what they were doing. It's great to see a black owned company doing high quality work as well as teaching the next generation. read more

They are always very professional, on time and always willing to explain to you what the issue is!

I used Speed Plumbing for a blocked sink after the initial company I called told me they needed to come back with a Video cam ( additional $$!!) only to find out that it only needed snaking from the inside. Reggie from Speed Plumbing was personable, neat, efficient and got the work completed for an amount well under previous 'estimates'! read more

Great experience. Called them at 11:00am to help me remove the gas shut off valve. Were there n less than 10 minutes. Greg quoted me a price, I'm like no problem...Greg came over and said, are you sure you need me? I'm like, Yup. He did the job in less than 5 minutes. I was happy the job was done. Oh I forgot to mention...the gas co was out earlier because of a gas leak...per the tech..I was to replace the old shut off valve. Thanks Greg...I'll definitely call them back to replace my old gas logs in my fireplace. Sometime its best to hire someone professional, especially when you're dealing with natural gas. Thanks again....use them, they are great and professional. read more

We have been using Speed Plumbing for some time now. They are great in communicating very quickly with our tenants. They are courteous and friendly. Their operators are very friendly and very helpful. Their prices are very competitive. Overall very happy with their service. This is a company I can rely to get the job done right. read more

Lee and his crew were reliable, neat and thorough. Our sewer problems have plagued us for some time, especially living in the hills. We now have a brand new system that we can depend on. This is a great family-run business that we would recommend. read more

I've been using Speed Plumbing for over 12 years (when they were called Speed Rooter). They've been to my house to handle various clogs and even a sewer line issue. Their plumbers have always been friendly, courteous, clean and very competitive on pricing. I can't comment on actual plumbing repairs though, since all my jobs have been to unclog drains and lines. read more

Michael from Speed plumbing came out right away and took care of a sink backup within minutes. He was very pleasant and efficient. Thank you for the great service. read more

I was very impressed with this company. The Plumber that came to my home was Greg, he was on time and he explained what he found to be the problem with my shower and my toilet. He did not make me feel pressured to accept his recommendation and he actually saved me some money when he fixed my shower and told me to take back a new shower head I had purchased. The only thing I would have liked is that the service was a little less pricey but hey you get what you pay for. I will definitely use this company again. read more

I've used Speed Plumbing on several occasions. Each time I've had the pleasure of dealing with Lee. He would start by assessing the problem I was having. He then explained his findings in detail and made sure I had a clear understanding before quoting a price. The price has always been fair. And the quality of work was excellent!!! Since then, I've also referred several people who was in need of a plumber and they were equally satisfied with the company and the service that was provided. I highly recommend Speed Plumbing if you're in need of plumbing services... read more

I have been using this company now for several years now and just recently at another property. Whatever the job, big or small, they have always been professional and courteous. They have mentored many young men in the craft who have moved onto their own businesses. A long standing family owned institution that provides exceptional service is more of what our community needs. read more

Had bathroom sink stopped up. Landlord appointed to have Kenny come out Saturday morning. Came out on-time, inserted his driller, probed skillfully, and in no time my sink was draining 100%. Great job! Good price too. read more

Bad service. Plumber did a lazy job the first time. The drainage work a few days, then it got clogged again. Called the 2nd time, and he said different problem. He wanted to charge me more, but I said NO! He didn't fix the problem the first time and now he wanted more $$ from me. Please do not use this company. They do lazy and speedy job, and gonna charge you more when they come again a few days later. Please read other reviews about their bad service. It's true!!! read more

I've used Speed Plumbing for the past 12 years. They are always prompt, courteous and trustworthy.

Greg always provided excellent service and Debra is a gem. read more

Call Center's "Customer Service"...is HORRIBLE !!!!! It is unfortunate that Speed Plumbing 2000 may be loosing customers based on the call center and the customer service or a lack there of. The young lady by the name of Rosemary is rude, unprofessional and down right antisocial. When inquiring to make an appointment for service, I was told "someone called out sick and they are short staffed". Okay.. so what does that mean for me as a customer. She then hangs up the phone. I was not asked if I had an emergency, when did i need someone to come out and what was the problem. Again another encounter with "Rosemary" when asked to speak to another staff member, she got an attitude, did not state, "hold on, just a moment, can I assist you ,etc.. " Lee as an owner you should evaluate and do some quality checks on the customer service. With this occurring twice, I am hesitant on recommending your service as my friends and family would have to encounter Rosemary as the first point of contact who is representing your business. Maybe have a mystery caller so you can obtain some feedback in order to train properly. I hate to see you loose perspective customer. She comes across as if she is mad at the world and hates her job. - Not Good. read more
