Mary Jean Anderson started Anderson Plumbing, Heating & Air from four separate businesses.
2018 marked our 40th anniversary serving the San Diego area. In celebration, we built upon our Anderson Random Acts of Plumbing, Heating & Air program. We provided 40 gifts of plumbing, heating, and air conditioning services and equipment at no charge to 40 randomly selected San Diego residents.
The Anderson Career Builder Institute was launched in 2017. This initiative was a response to the nationwide shortage of skilled trade professionals.
In 2006, we unified our companies under a single name, forming a centralized team of experts and certified technicians. We deliver only premium products and prioritize excellent customer service.
In 2003, Mary Jean Anderson, our President, bought out her partner from Walter Anderson Plumbing. Since that time, she has expanded by acquiring more businesses in the industry and bringing in skilled staff who are still with us.
Hi there! I began my career in nursing, and my background as a caregiver fuels my dedication to outstanding customer service. I want you to feel assured that we will complete the job correctly the first time.
Bringing someone into your home can raise many questions and concerns, which is why our technicians undergo thorough background checks, drug screenings, and personality assessments before hiring. All our technicians are licensed and have been fingerprinted in accordance with California state regulations.
I appreciate my family and team, including my husband Bryan Rominger, who leads the Anderson Career Builder Institute (ACBI) as President and serves as Headmaster and Instructor. My son Kyle Anderson serves as Vice President and Strategic Operations Manager, while my daughter Kelly is the Service Manager.
As a family business, we take pride in ensuring the safety, comfort, and value of your home. We are thankful to our customers who allow us to serve them, and we would love the opportunity to earn your business.

Recommended Customer Reviews
I made an appointment to have two washing machine shut off valves replaced. The plummer who arrived was very helpful,but the price that was quoted was crazy $420. to replace in my opinion at best were 2 $10.00 valves. They are correct when they say we ""WOW YOU""
Michelle S.Just as the weather gets hot of course the AC goes out. Called Anderson and they sent out CJ. He was quick to make things relaxed and comfortable, finding a quick solution to our problem. He also let us know of some home improvement programs that could assist us ( we were discussing all the changes we were doing in the house, it was not just randomly blurted out). Overall he gave us a wonderful experience and I would be happy to have him back again should anything go wrong.
Gary S.I had the opportunity to have Junior as my technician he was extremely knowledgeable and cut to the chase. I'm extremely happy with the service I received and would recommend Andersons to anyone. Junior got to the point explained everything that he was doing in fine detail and was extremely respectful. I recommend you hold on to him because you just don't get customer service like that anymore. Thank you Anderson and thank you Junior
Great company. Professional. They followed through on their work and had fair prices. Although it has taken me a while to review Anderson, I wanted to acknowledge them for being the ONLY company to be available to install a heating unit in my home during the Christmas/New Year holiday at a fair price. They have certainly earned a loyal customer in the future!
This was the first time we had a service on our 16 year old HVAC units and selected Anderson based on a friends recommendation and backed up by the many positive online reviews. We were very pleased with the work that Brian D did on our AC units. He was thorough, professional and competent. He recommended some preventative steps to take based on the age and condition of the units but didn't push anything. Based on his approach and the quality of his work, we will use Anderson PHA again.
Jennifer B.Anderson bought the company who originally installed our air conditioner and we have continued to use them for YEARS to service our furnace and a/c. We even have a quote from them to do a tankless water heater for us, but after yesterday, never again! My husband is a contractor and needed to sub out to a plumber to seat a toilet and hook up a dishwasher and hot water line under the kitchen sink. We called Anderson since we had always been pleased with them and it was a small, easy job. After paying them the $42 service call fee, we were told that those two items would cost $900. $900?!? It's no more than 1.5 hours work and we provided all of the needed parts. I would hate to think what they would charge if they needed to do something more involved. We have called another small, independent plumber (Cooper's Plumbing) out to do the work and guess what, he is charging us less than $200. Congratulations Anderson, you've lost our business!
Sarah L.I would definitely recommend Anderson for air conditioning which is what we called them out for. They topped off our refrigerant and sealed off a small leak and it's been running great ever since! Friendly, conscientious, and professional. Fair pricing. They will be our go to company for any future issues... knock on wood...we don't want any of those! Awesome job!
So it's March, 2017 now...we have a leak and need the coil replaced. The leak test alone was over 1000. To replace the coil and fix pipe leak outside is about 3900. This is not good news. Will have to do some research because this sounds high. Anyone have comments?
The work that was performed was adequate for a replacement of a Pressure Regulator, but if I had gone to Home Depot, you can buy the same regulator for $100. Also my neighbor had another licensed company replace their pressure regulator and the cost was $445. Anderson plumbing charged me $772 for same exact work.
Margaret A.Noticed the $99. drain cleaning special so thought I'd give it a try. After calling to schedule an appointment for Monday, received a window time of 10 AM to 2 PM, plus they call you 30 minutes before they arrive.
Dylan D. arrived about 12:30 PM and promptly started to auger the drain line. After peppering him with loads of questions, he had some very helpful suggestions. He recommended the use of a pumice stone and where to purchase the correct additional parts needed to avoid any additional problems. Quality professionalism, kind honest service is what we received.
Definitely will be calling again for our next plumbing job as they specialize in all sorts of plumbing needs.
Seriously. The pricing from Anderson is way over fair or normal. We were quoted more than $6,000 for replacement of our water heater, and were told it was too complex to repair. An alternate quote from an equally rated plumber was $500 for repair, including obtaining a heat exchanger unit for us under guarantee. So glad we did not go ahead with Anderson on this job.
