We needed to have old cast iron pipes under our house replaced. We had contacted and gotten quotes from several other plumbing companies. Michael the owner was the one that came out to do the initial inspection for Ability. Which was not the case for any of the other companies. Immediately knew he was good people. They gave us a slightly lower quote then other companies for the work that needed to be done. I very much felt like all the other companies were trying to up sell. I did not get that from Michael.

We had been quoted by others that it would be maybe a couple of weeks to complete. Ability had a team of like 10 guys there on day one right before Christmas. We only went an afternoon without water and plumbing. They got the whole job done even with holidays in between in about a week. Absolutely amazing the amount of work they were able to do in a very short amount of time.

Every person on their team is professional, helpful, and courteous. The work that was done was absolutely top notch and I would HIGHLY recommend them for any plumbing issue big or small.

The communication from the office to the text messages of arrival time was exceptional. The plumbing technician was very cordial and had a great professional demeanor. He spent quite a bit of time evaluating and assessing our situation with the plumbing camera. It was worth the money spent to figure out our problem. Thank you for your professionalism all the way around.

Mike and Ability Plumbing came recommended by another contractor who had done some work for us. During a bathroom remodel our installer found some plumbing issues with our 67 yr old house. Mike and crew came out, evaluated the problem/s and found some other things that were better addressed before the bathroom remodels were completed. They spent several days here completing the work. Shout outs to Zack,Trent, Danny & Miguel for the great work. Anyone asking about plumbing work will be referred to you!

The entire crew at Ability Plumbing is amazing. I had extensive work done and and had them come out multiple times for various projects. They were always incredibly responsive, professional, and thorough with their inspections and completion of work. I couldn't be happier with everything they did to help get my property back in shape! Highly recommend!

From the moment I met Michael, I knew he was good peoples' and his team brought the same energy!

Danny, Trent, Miguel and Zach all went above and beyond to complete the job. These guys were working outside from 8 am-3-5 pm daily during the hottest week so far this summer and their jovial personalities didn't waver for a second!

Overall, the entire service was affordable, reliable and efficiently done; most importantly we feel confident our system is good for decades to come.

Thank you guys!

Called Michael the Owner of Ability yesterday and let him know that I was having water heater issues. He came by at 5pm and diagnosed the problem. I opted for a full replacement for a 12 year old water heater .
He had a guy on site by 9:30 am today . His team member Joel arrived as promised and started the project. It was professionally installed after about Three hours. When he was done Joel hauled away the old water heater and cleaned up the surrounding area. It was left as he found it. I have used Ability for a home remodel and have used them for some additional plumbing projects around the house and business. I would 100% recommend this company . They are excellent to deal with .

We have been using Ability Plumbing- San Diego for several years. we don't have anything but great things to say about this company and their staff.
They are very honest and upfront.

I had a very good experience working with Michael and Ability Plumbing. We had a leak in our washing machine drain line and Jordan came out to snake it for us. It worked for a while but as it was very old with hard clogs, we knew it would ultimately have to be replaced eventually. When it clogged again, Michael came back out to check it again at no cost and while snaking the very fragile pipe - it broke. He replaced the pipe from cast iron to ABS at ZERO charge to me since it broke while he was working. No issues since.

We had Michael come back and bid for a replacement of our entire sewer system. He took me step by step through what he saw, what he recommended and cleared a pretty big clog along the way while charging me very little. Although we decided to move forward with a different company for the big job due to financial reasons alone, Michael and his team deserve recognition for their customer service, responsiveness and willingness to help. It felt honest and that is not always the norm with some tradesman. Highly recommend.

So many GREAT things about Ability... but the personal, real, down to earth service is truly some of the best I've ever known (& my standards are high). We were given instant undivided attn straight from the top.
Michael (owner), Tim, Joel & Laura all helped us feel calm & taken care of. Not only did they easily handle our new Toliet/Supply pick up, they even did extras like finally fixing our pesky loose sink faucet! A++ ALL AROUND!! Michael runs his company with the spirit of excellence, customer first mission & a family spirit.
They all communicated promptly, clearly & safely to help us. Its fantastic to find a contractor who is definitely on your side! DON T HESITATE TO CALL THEM FOR ANY NEEDS! They are the best I've known!! Kept us CALM & CARED FOR during a stressful time: FIXED IT ALL ~ EVEN BETTER THAN BEFORE
