Reviews
My purpose in writing a bad review of Power Plumbing in Mission Hills, San Diego, CA is express my experience for future clients on the tactics they used to get a job by quoting a low price without a written estimate and then finishing the job and charging much more than they quoted. I called Powers Plumbing for an estimate to take out our old wholehouse water filter and put in a new one which we had bought. I had worked with Powers 16 years and trusted them. They also quote their hourly labor rate which we like. Unbeknownst to me they had sold their business to new owners.The plumber arrived and looked at the job and quoted us 4 hours of work $756, and said he could start immediately as he had installed many of the brand we had bought. He said he had all he needed in his truck to do the job. We said fine and went inside. Later he said we needed a new water pressure gauge, and I drove and got a new one which he installed and charged an additional quarter of an hour for that.When he finished and we asked the total figure, he quoted us $1,428.48 or $579.27 more or 41% more than he had quoted us. He said the difference was all the parts he used and he did not use the parts that came with the unit we bought. He never once mentioned he was going to use all new expensive parts or quoted a price. If he had told us this and given us a quote, we would not have used him. We paid him but after he left, we realized that he was dishonest in his estimate to get the job and we were conned! The next day there was also a leak from the pipes he installed. I called three times to talk to the owner about this, but he never called back and after calling and emailing to get a written invoice, we finally got a written invoice. About 7 days later someone called, and I expressed that the installation was leaking, and that we felt we had been conned. He said he would send someone out to fix the leak and that he would get back to me. When he got back to me, he offered us a 10% discount or $140 which I refused.What showed me that they are not an experienced, honest, and professional company is that he thought that it was perfectly fine the way they jacked the price up after the job was done in order to get the job and did not give a written estimate at the beginning of the job. We had a contracting business for years and would never have done this.Their work was good except for the leak, but make sure they give you a written estimate with a written guarantee (this will could take 3 or more days) before you let them start the job.

Powers Plumbing replaced the laundry box in my laundry area. Luis did excellent work, was courteous and professional, informed me at all stages of the project, and completed the repair quickly and efficiently. I highly recommend Powers Plumbing, and especially Luis, if you need any plumbing repairs completed.
I have an old gas floor heater that wasn't working anymore. I had almost given up on getting it serviced as no one wanted to work on it. I came across Powers Plumbing's website where they talked about working these older heaters. Most HVAC companies want nothing to do with vintage heaters and want to sell you an expensive whole house HVAC system. Living in an old Craftsman style house--that old heater is part of the charm and its quiet warmth adds to the nice wintertime environment. In short the crew came out and fixed it without problems saving me having to do a whole house heating upgrade. They were friendly and experienced. I would not hesitate to use this company in the future.

I have a 1939 house that has taps and valves from the 70s . I needed a part Home Depot etc sells an alternative but I wanted the same fitting or valve. No where else had it and when I brought it in Jason told me exactly what I needed and . I was happy to have it replaced the old one put a new one in place . Like for like . Longest part of doing the repair was finding plumbing shop that carried what I was looking for. They have a lot of older style fixture there and I will be going back

Parts supplied. The parts manager was extremely knowledgeable about the parts we were seeking and helpful in finding something that worked from his inventory. It was a very pleasant experience to go somewhere and be treated like a valued customer by someone that actually knows their field and inventory. Took me back in time to that hometown that San Diego was in my childhood. People cared when they helped you and small businesses specialied. Thank you for so much for that. Highly recommend.

The staff was friendly and responded quickly. They fixed the issue with out problem. However the prices are very high. They charge very high prices for parts, alomst 3x- 4x what you would pay at home depot for the same parts. The hourly rate includes drive time. The rate itself is also a bit high at 180 an hour. Was almost 400 for the hour and 15mins of work. The job was the repair of a broken sprinkler pipe. Will not be using again.

They were on time. They kept me apprised with email and text notifications. They were very speedy with the repairs that I needed and it was very affordable. This is the second time I have used them and they are excellent. I would recommend them to anybody
Technician showed up an hour and 15 minutes later than set an expected which caused us to stress out because at 4:30 it’s double the fee per hour. Once he was here he did a decent job and I noticed later on the charges there was a charge for a bowl wax which I had to have already and only cost me six bucks at Home Depot he charge me 8.69and then listed other Supplies which absolutely none were used because I had my own bolts and nuts to refasten the toilet and so there was an overcharge there for supplies about 20. Bucks. I feel David was a but dishonest, in the extra charge.
Installed new cartridge in lab faucet and flushed tankless water heater. Courteous professional and timely. Not inexpensive but they care about delivering quality services

Karen did a great job getting us scheduled, and David was excellent. He took the time necessary to resolve our problem, and explain his findings. Thank you both!
I live in an old house, built in 1927. Most plumbers run away screaming from the vintage plumbing. But not Powers Plumbing! They have saved the day twice: when the original fixtures in the tub/shower failed, they re-plumbed with new reproduction fixtures that blend well with the existing bath. More recently, the vintage toilet wasn’t working properly, and stumped other plumbers who insisted it had to be replaced. I was sad to lose an original fixture, and phoned Powers as I knew if anyone could figure it out, they could. David was here yesterday; he was patient, professional, and worked some plumbing magic: the old toilet is working properly again!! I should clarify that I have called in other plumbers as I live in North County, and it’s a long drive. But never again. Powers Plumbing genuinely knows their stuff! Also, their customer service is amazing; everyone has been kind, helpful, and willing to listen—even to an old lady who wants to save her antique fixtures. I won’t be calling anyone else again.

Very impressed with everyone I dealt with at Powers. They were very straightforward and easy to deal with. I didn’t feel they were looking for ways to increase my service or pad their bill. I originally had booked one of the big 3 providers and about fell over when I got their quote. Using Powers saved me thousands from that price. I have already recommended them to several neighbors. They were great!
I needed a plumber to fix drain and water valve in tenants shower. Powers Plumbing were quick to respond and available next morning. Very professional customer service and technician. Both very polite and and ready to help you. I think was a little expensive, but you get what you paid for, I guess. I will call again if needed.
Top notch service for a kitchen faucet replacement. I bought the fixture and they replaced the old one. I'm a very satisfied returning customer.
Professional, courteous, prompt, knowledgeable, excellent to work with. I highly recommend Powers Plumbing.
I always call Powers when I have plumbing issues. They are the best! Terrific service. Prompt response. No surprises on the price. Very reasonable.
People at Powers were polite, professional & competent from the initial booking of the appointment to the repair of the leaky toilet. We have used Powers Plumbing for many years & plan to continue to do so in the future .

Picked up a replacement faucet handle cartridge from their shop. Service was excellent. Friendly and professional.
It was great having the technician that installed my exterior gas line return to hook up my outdoor firepit! David was excellent from the phone call of when he was on his way to trying to work out issues with a faulty lighter on a piece of equipment which I purchased from an online vendor. He wanted to make sure everything was in perfect working condition and cleaned up. I have used Powers plumbing for the last 6 years and regardless of the change in ownership, continue to receive great service and will be calling them for future plumbing/gas line issues.

Corey and Jonathan were here all day taking care various issues (all caused by the degradation over time or, by others). It was a pleasure to have both of them here. They were profession, efficient and really listened as I described a truly bizarre problem.I can 100% recommend Powers Plumbing. I have been a customer since 1986 and they have truly kept the pipes and plumbing in this 100-year old home humming. Great company, great people.
I’ve used Power for years and they are always professional and get the job done timely.

Luis did an outstanding job replacing a broken water inlet valve to our washing machine. He, also, replaced all 3 valves that I requested on our shower. The valves now operate very smoothly. He was very fast and efficient and completed the task within a reasonable timeand cost. We will definitely use Power’sPlumbing in the future if any plumbing problemsoccur. The Power’s Plumbing team provides excellent service.Mk
Powers Plumbing was a pleasure to work with. Excellent customer service. Super nice employees and owners. Every interaction was professional and friendly... even came out early on a Saturday morning so we would have hot water for the weekend. Can’t say enough good things. The repairs were excellent and the price was amazing compared to other local operations. 5 stars and many thanks to the whole team. Will be our go to plumbers moving forward.

Powers plumbing gave a quote for a bathroom renovation. They were prompt and very thorough. They took their time to explain the whole process from start to finish.
Reasonably priced. Responsive. Excellent work. They ordered the parts for me. They replaced shower head and tub spigot. Added a house shutoff valve. Also, fixed a gas line and connection to my dryer. I've used them for years. The new ownership is continuing the excellent quality and service of the prior owners.
I can’t say enough good things about Powers plumbing. From start to end customer service was great keeping me breast every step in terms of when they we’re coming and would be here. The technician they sent, Eric, was respectful, cordial quick and efficient. I’d highly recommend Powers plumbing to anyone who needs any service related to plumbing.
Powers is a great company under new management and it really shows! My home was built in 1953 on a slab with cast iron pipes so I am no stranger to plumbing issues. I have dealt with a lot of different companies over the years but this one is exceptional. They have new top of the line equipment, excellent customer service, punctual, thorough, knowledgeable, trustworthy, and got the job done! Highly recommend!

There great yoshi and Luis worked great as a team. I had a sewer drain clog. I have an older Pacific beach home with cast iron pipes. I told them in the past I've had plumber that broke pipe. They looked at the system and decided on a plan to fix the problem. Got to work unclogged the drain and also installed a new bathroom fixture in no time. As a senior I was amazed on the professional work ethic these young guys had. I think it's a reflection on training from the company they work for. Thanks powers plumbing for the great jobI definitely will use you in the future.

This was our first time using Powers Plumbing. We were searching for someone specializing in old gravity heaters after an SDG&E inspection deemed necessary. First company said it was unfixable as part was no longer available. We found Powers online. Due to illness of staff, we were rescheduled twice, which had us a little concerned. The day scheduled to come the best tech for our job was delayed at an earlier call. Despite it being late in the day, he came! And, the communication was fantastic letting us know. He went to work and unfortunately, it was far more time consuming than we’d ever imagined. It was dark out, and the heater is under house. We were hoping somehow he could come back the next day, but never articulated that. He actually stayed longer to finish the job. It was so late, maybe 8 pm, that we thought maybe missed him leaving. All I can say is, he was amazing!!! He went above and beyond. We appreciate it so much as the heater was out since before Christmas. So, Powers Plumbing and the technician E.B. are held in the highest regard by our family. He left, the heat was working, and he was off to another job! Thank you Eric, Gail and Powers Plumbing! We are so impressed and grateful!!!

Jonathan was right on time. He's very courteous, communicates clearly, gets right to work and knows what he's doing. I have dealt with Powers Plumbing at their location in Mission Hills and will definitely do business with them again.
Talk about turning negative to positive. Althought there were some scheduling issues and a minor billing adjustment to be made, the overall experience has me feeling happy. I was contacted by the owner Janet couple of times and they made it work. Both plumbers and parts guy were extremely professional, and I would recommend them again.
Powers Plumbing did an amazing job finding an obscure part for my fixture and saving me a tremendous amount of time and money. The plumbers sent on site were fast, courteous, and professional. They went above and beyond in keeping me informed, dealing with our building's precarious plumbing system and minimizing my stress level.They did a fantastic job and I would highly recommend them to anyone in San Diego.

I called seeking advice with regard to installing a toilet. The individual I spoke with freely shared his knowledge with me. It was helpful and most appreciated.
Johnathan the plumber was awesome! Easygoing, confident and clear communicator. Cost wasn’t what was quoted but it never is. Didn’t get any upsell vibe/offers to do unnecessary work. I’d use them again for sure.
I needed a water heater replaced ASAP and Powers was able to help same day. Plumber David came within the timeline promised by Janet in the office and he did a professional job. We have also purchased hard-to-find parts from Powers for some older fixtures in our house. They are a great resource!

She was able to give some recommendations and had a gentlemen come out and help us with all our small requests! He was efficient and very knowledgeable during the service call. We found ourselves a new local plumbing company. Thank you again Janet!!
Technician expressed there would be no charge for his visit as he was in my home for 5 minutes. I was subsequently charged $150 for a 5 minute visit, with no repair needed as there was nothing wrong with the appliance. Would not recommend.

As always Power does a great job. They always arrive quickly and carefully find and fix the issue at hand. I have relied on Powers for over twenty years and they never let me down.
Luis w very professional, clean and patient with explaining and letting me take photos for upgrading the owner's of the unit being leaked into. I recommend and will use again
Eric at Powers Plumbing came prepared and was able to replace our Moen PosiTemp cartridge that was stuck in the valve body. Great job as usual by Powers Plumbing.

Faucet handle was loose from an earlier repair. Chris the plumber did the repair in a timely and professional manner. He was very personable and we will definitely ask for him in the future.
Did a great job replacing a main sewer line on raised foundation. Jonathan was professional and thorough. Job was completed ahead of schedule with attention to detail
I had three homes with plumbing problems. Powers Plumbing sent out Donald (with over 20 yrs experience). Donald fixed all the problems. He was professional, friendly, and willing to take the time to explain what he was doing and what the problem was. Janet, the owner was very accommodating and patient over the phone. She was able to get a handle on the situation and order the parts needed BEFORE the service call. I finally found an honest, reliable plumbing company, Alan

I used powers plumbing today. Robert came out, he is very good at any plumbing repair, he fixed my kitchen sink and a couple bathroom sink stoppers. Super nice guy and the owner (Janet I think) answered my call on the weekend and was very friendly. . I recommend this company. I haven't gotten a bill from them yet but they charge by the hour which I respect. I had Anderson plumbing come out for a wax seal in my toilet about a week ago and they tried charging me $475. I threw a fit, that is highway robbery. For a wax seal, it wasn't even installed correctly. The part is $3.50. What a rip off. I hope Powers will be more reasonable since their guys are paid by the hour and not commission like Anderson. Powers just seems like a good company and that's hard to come by these days!
This is the place you need to call for your plumbing needs
Excellent and honest and don’t advertise on local TV
Corey and Gabriel were very informative and helpful.
Overall a great experience
Powers Plumbing company is rad. They came over to my house when I had no hot water and said my water heater needed to be repaired. It was not that costly and they did not try to sell me a new water heater or anything. Plumber was clean and efficient. I was very impressed with their company and would easily recommend them to friends that needed a plumber.
Professional company. Communication is awesome. No wait. Repair same day. Dave was awesome.

I have used Powers Plumbing several times and have had an excellent experience each time. They have the ability to work on older houses and do repairs on plumbing that other plumbing companies have not had the interest to work on and/or ability to work on. I have had Powers work on a couple of heater problems in two older homes where another company was called to do the job by my property manager. The other company could not be bothered to get the parts and wanted to replace the heater. I told my property manager that I had called Powers Plumbing on another job and that I wanted them to be called to do the job. Powers did the repairs and saved me from having to put in a new heater which would have cost several thousand dollars. I usually do not do many reviews unless I think that the company is in my experience excellent. Thank you Powers!
Powers Plumbing has worked on a couple of jobs for me and both times were very positive experiences. They work quickly and are fairly priced. Janet is very good to work with. Fernando just fixed a leak for me this past weekend and was very professional and knew how to fix the problem immediately.
I had a plumbing emergency on a weekend. Powers Plumbing has come to the rescue before. They are friendly, fast, no nonsense and focus on getting the issue handled. Their pricing is very reasonable. I would recommend them to anyone who needs a plumber.

Powers Plumbing has completed several projects on our home and all of them done to a high standard and most very cost effectively. They charge by the hour and work efficiently whereas many plumbers charge by the overall job regardless of how quickly they’re finished. We have been very happy with them not only because of the good work but because if there has ever been an issue after they leave, they come back promptly and address it. If they can fix rather than replace, that’s the first thing they try to do. If it’s something that should have been done differently the first time, they work cheerfully and don’t charge. In short, they act like a neighborhood business - one which understands that their long-term reputation is more important than today’s profit. I will use them anytime - as long as the ownership and business practices stays the same. Ive found them to be solid and trustworthy people.
Needed a new water heater. Powers was recommended by a friend. Can't believe how much the cost of water heaters has gone up in the last 30 years, but buying it through Powers was no more expensive than getting it at Home Depot and I didn't have to lug it home. They did a nice job installing it at a reasonable labor charge. Would definitely use them again.
This is the best plumbing company I have ever worked with. We had an emergency that they took care of immediately and at one third the cost that we had been quoted by a major San Diego plumbing company. Great technicians, superior administrators and wonderful follow up. If you need plumbing, be it for repairs, new construction, or remodeling, I cannot recommend Powers Plumbing higher. Awesome People!!!

By far the best plumbing business I have been to. Very professional and extremely knowledgeable. I was working a plumbing issue with a friend and there were difficulties locating the damaged parts. Not only dis they have the parts they even had a complete replacement kit and we were able to repair both bathrooms. They are the best.

We had to call Powers Plumbing, our neighborhood plumbing company for a leak we couldn't figure out pooling in our front yard. Their response was immediate, and quick to determine the problem. They had to repair a main line under our newly established landscaping which they did with minimum disruption. This is at least our 4th great experience with Powers. I'd highly recommend them to all.

Horrendous customer service! I rarely (if ever) write negative reviews. I am a real estate agent and referred Power's Plumbing to a client to give an estimate and camera inspection. After showing up over an hour late and expressing confusion over what they were there for and everything we already discussed on the phone, they proceeded with the estimate. 3 days later, my clients received an invoice that was $120 over what the clear agreed price was and when confronted, the employee who made the mistake first said they would make it right and fix it, then the owner, after accusing me to my client behind my back of creating problems, said they would not change the invoice.I, of course, can't charge my client for this, so I let Power's know that if they really have this much lack of customer service, they can bill me (the referring agent) the excess fee and send a separate invoice if they want payment. They failed to do so after that and just called a month later to pretend we never had this conversation and try to charge interest on the original invoice.I rarely see this bad of customer service and lack of responsibility. Not only did they lose a $9k job over it, but any future business that I have the ability to refer. I'm surprised they can't see past that and would rather rip client's off. Then again, I should have seen from the negative reviews in the past that this is just how they choose to operate. Save yourself the trouble and find a different plumber.They are basically charging me for the Hour they made ME wait for their late arrival.. Almost laughable.
My previous post here was meant for another plumbing company. It was a mistake to post it here.

My experience with this company has been wholesome in diagnosing moisture buildup in my 3 story, shared wall, town home. These are real professionals setting the bar. David arrived on time full with information (of my leak) and started diagnosing the problem.Perfectly efficient diagnosing! How so? Unlike tunnel vision from which other companies have conditioned me to, David used calculated moves ruling out and exposing all the clues before diving into best clue. This method saves total job time and ensures accurate results.To wrap it up, I could have literally spent my entire savings repairing my home from damages caused by my neighbors negligence.
I have been using Powers Plumbing ever since I can remember. My parents even used them as a plumbing company ever since the 70's. I called them when my toilet started leaking and they took good care of me like always. Powers Plumbing always does fantastic work. Thank you so much for all your help.

Powers Plumbing has been our plumbing doctor since our house was built in 1978. Janet and her crew are always ready to help with whatever problem we have. They are professional, cheerful and prompt.
We had a challenging problem with a sewer line of 100yr old cast iron plumbing. Powers took care of it in a timely and professional manner for a fair price. Thanks Shane, Jonathan, Donald, and Janet!
Powers plumbing is great. My dad called them over to our house when their was a clog in one of our drains. They fixed the drain problem and my dad asked me to write a good review for them which I am happily doing. A great San Diego plumbing company!
Powers Plumbing has been wonderful in responding immediately to any plumbing concerns I’ve had. With an older historic home, it’s especially comforting to know that they are up to the challenge of pinpointing a problem and fixing it, quickly and effectively.

We have lived in Mission Hills since 1973, and we have relied on Powers Plumbing for all our plumbing needs and problems - sewer blockages, replacing water heaters, leaking pipes, installing sink faucets, etc. They have always been unfailingly helpful, flexible, generous with their time, reliable in appointments, and expert in their work. We have recommended them to our neighbors and friends. We think they are an exceptional value to our community and to San Diego at large.
Robert Miller with Powers Plumbing was sent over the same day I called Powers for help with a clogged bathtub that would not drain. To my surprise, he fixed it in 20 minutes! He was clean cut, extremely polite and professional, took time to clean the area after he finished, and refused to take a tip! Now that's what I call CUSTOMER SERVICE! I will never call anyone else but Powers Plumbing!
Have done business with Powers for years and have not been let down. Quality work at a good price. This last time was an emergency and they had my issue fixed and done within 2 hours! They rock!!
Plumbers were excellent, they came to my house in the north park part of San Diego and installed a new water heater. They were in and out in no time flat. Powers Plumbing was not only one of the best priced plumbers, they were really fast.

Powers Plumbing really helped me out of a jam. I had a toilet clogged and needed a plumber to come out as soon as possible. They were timely and much more presentable than what I expected from a plumber. Very kind, and cordial, had a great experience.

I can't speak more highly of them! I called several other plumbers who claimed to have emergency service hours and couldn't come out for a 2-3 hours. Matt from Powers came out right away, was professional, courteous and did a great job!
Thanks Powers :)
We bought an old duplex with old plumbing and heating in 1997 and have used Powers plumbing since then. They installed new sinks and toilets in both apartments and a water heater in the upstairs unit several years ago. This year(July, Oct. and November) they cleaned out a kitchen drain affecting the two apartments, installed a new water heater for the downstairs apartment and restored our old Coleman wall furnace in the upstairs unit. Powers has always been responsive to our needs, knowledgeable about their work and honest in their dealings with us.
Powers saved the day with a total re pipe of our historic home. Bid #1 was 3 times Powers' bid. Bid #2 (one of San Diego's largest companies) the guy leveled with us and said, job too big for us now. There's a lot of work out there now for plumbers. Janet, Shane, Eric and everyone beneath them did a great job. Eric volunteered to work on Presidents' Day to keep the job on schedule. As landlords, we know our stuff and Powers' work and price were right on!

This weekend a pipe cracked behind the wall in our shower! It was awful but once we got the water off we were so glad that Powers Plumbing came out and replaced the pipe quickly. We hope we don't have any lasting damage but we'll see now to just hope the wood dries without an issue!
Love supporting this local Mission Hills plumbing store. They are no more expensive than any other, and they always give good advise about which quality companies to buy from for faucets, toilets, etc. If you live in the area please consider using them for your plumbing needs.

Everyone at Powers has been professional and courteous. Their work is top-notch and their service is excellent. Best plumbers in San Diego, without a doubt.
Oscar Covar arrived exactly as planned and was amazingly efficient, organized and tidy.I was concerned b/c when Eric came out to price the job he had indicated it would take a helper and a master plumber to do the job in a day. I called the office when only Oscar arrived and was assured that Oscar was capable of completing the work in a day on his own, which he did, except for the arrival of Tim to help load the old toilet (a very heavy one piece unit) into the truck at the end of the day. I am very impressed with the quality of the work. Oscar was very knowledgable and an excellent plumber. When I need a plumber in the future I will be contacting Powers.I was also very grateful that Eric came out to provide the estimate a day after I called. He also was very knowledgable and honest about what was needed and pointing out other potential issues that could be deferred without any high pressure sales talk.
Edgar was very professional and did the job well. Explained what was needed and corrected the issue.

Eric of Powers Plumbing did excellent work in installing a filter for a tankless water heater on a property I’m helping out with. Knowledgeable, efficient, and friendly…a great representative for Powers Plumbing!
I brought in my Kohler toe tap bathtub drain that had stopped working.Jason spent a significant amount of time trying to figure out what the problem might be. He said he could order me a new one or perhaps I should contact Kohler to see if it is a warranty item. That turned out to be a great suggestion. Kohler sent me a video that showed me that the problem was the gasket improperly installed.Thanks to Jason for giving the correct information to solve the problem.When I have a tough plumbing problem my first stop is the store front at Powers Plumbing.

Called to fix a faucet not properly working at my business:Plumber comes in 1st time: a new part is needed, ok, so he orders the part.Plumber comes a second time to install the part, but is not the correct one.The plumber apparently talks to my staff and tells them the faucet cannot be fixed, but it works fine, my staff accepts the explanation and the plumber leaves.I got a bill for $ 209 today. I called back the office and the person on the phone apologizes and says he is going to talk to the owner. Needless to say i told the office clerk that i can pay for one diagnostic visit, but that's it: my faucet is the same as it was before their visits.I got a call back few minutes later with apologies and sorryes, which doesn't fix or solves anything by the way, then my bill now is lowered to $160. Hahahaha. I asked why don't they come and fix the issue at least, and the clerk says on the phone that the issue i have with my faucet cannot be fixed: i guess i have a faucet with a terminal plumbing disease, lol. They are gonna have to do better than this. Here is in a nutshell my experience with this business today.

Friendly, professional and knowledgeable. Thank you Powers Plumbing.
Powers Plumbing put in a new water heater for me. Did not take that long and they really had the best prices of the plumbers I called. Nothing like having hot water back again.
Whenever we need help, broken pipe, lighting the heater when the pilot goes out, toilet broken, we call and they come running. Plus, when we exchange our house, we know that if any plumbing issues arise they can call. Powers will fix it and bill us.
I called this company in what was a moment of crisis due to a water leak - ultimately fortunately everything worked out to where I did not have to use their services, but I can at least say that Jason whom I spoke with over the phone in the moment was super helpful and willing to give me some useful advice free of charge. Thanks!
Will did a great job. He was friendly, efficient, and helped me solve a problem I didn't think could be fixed. I would use Powers Plumbing again.
Beware of their pricing structure and number of technicians sent. We used them for many years but the new management is unprofessional at best.
Plumber from Powers Plumbing came out and looked at my water heater, they decided it would be best to install a new one instead of repairing my old one. I agreed, new water heater is working like a champ.
Love having Powers in the neighborhood. Always reliable, professional and gets the job done! Thank you for handing our families plumbing needs.

Terrible Service, they start the clock when they leave the office which was only 5 miles from my house and charged me for 1.25 hours for transit time. Gave me an estimate on repairs that was three times more than the next competitor. Stay clear of these guys.
