“San Diego Emergency Plumbing and Leak Detection were quick with a rapid response. I first contacted them a 12:22 pm and they fixed my Plumbing issue at 2:00 pm. They gave an emergency plumbing service for a non emergency plumbing issue. I definitely recommend them to any customer who is looking for a quick response and a guaranteed satisfaction.”

“If you have a leak, Hansel is your man. We had a leak and they helped us find it and troubleshoot it. Great company, definitely give them a call if you have a leak inside or outside your home!”
“Couldn’t recommend these guys enough. They were super communicative about price and what it would take to fix a gas leak to my bar b que. We ended up capping the line. It was great working with David and Tommy who got the work done fast. Hansel was kind enough to drop by the next day to ensure everything was done right. I was quoted way higher pricing by other plumbers, but a lot of it wasn’t needed. Call these guys …”
