Red flag
Recent sharp deterioration in responsiveness and reliability. Two recent reviews (Dec 2024-2025) report cancelled appointments, no-shows, unanswered phones, and full voicemails. One reviewer explicitly notes no positive reviews in the last 7 months.

Red flag
Potential staffing turnover affecting service. One reviewer mentions 'the top three plumbers have left' and notes the company 'WERE the best,' suggesting recent degradation in performance.
“cancelled first appt., no showed second appt. and will not call me back”
High pricing on simple installations. One review documents $451 charge for a $40-70 expansion tank installation and $406 for a $30-50 drip pan, noting the installation work itself was competent but pricing felt exploitative.
Cited in 1 of the 185 reviews we analyzed.

The evidence — in reviewers' own words
Critical
“Beyond disappointing- said they would be out this morning. Around 11:30am I called to confirm they were still coming, and was told the technician would be here in about an hour. Another hour went by, I called again- this time no one picked up and I was sent to a full mailbox. I even tried 2 more times in case that was a fluke- same message. I wish I had searched reviews by “most recent” as it seems this place does …”
“Installed faulty shower pan, dodged calls for months, then provided inadequate response to resolve issue. Would recommend for basic work, but avoid them for any difficult / non-basic work.”
“One of our bathroom sinks backed up. We ran a snake down the pipe but it kept going into the roof vent path. We called Blue Dragon and they said that it sounded like we needed a drain camera and they did not have one but referred us to Plumb Doctors. I scheduled and was told that there was an $89 service call fee but it would be waived if we went ahead with service. Marc and Gabe came and after I signed for the $337 …”
Positive
“We tracked down Plumb Doctors after a few plumbers recommended by friends turned us down because they didn't service tankless water heaters. We've since used them twice and I can highly recommend! Marc came out last year because our water wouldn't stay hot during showers. He showed up promptly, immediately diagnosed the issue as a faulty check valve, and had it replaced within minutes. He took the time to explain …”
“I recently had the opportunity to work with Plumb Doctors, and I am extremely satisfied with the service provided. After submitting an online request outside of normal business hours, I was impressed by the prompt response and confirmation of my appointment within just two hours. Jami, the plumber assigned to my job, was punctual and professional. He ensured I was informed of his arrival time and kept me updated …”

The rating picture
Newest review in our sample: Dec 2025.
Across platforms
Google 4.9/5 (576 reviews) vs. Yelp 4.4/5 (96 reviews) reflects a significant rating gap. Recent 1-star reviews on both platforms citing no-shows and communication failures suggest the Google rating lags behind current service quality decline, possibly due to review recency weighting or volume differences skewing the aggregate.
