It is time to retract my last YELP negative evaluation about Cal Plumbing for the following reason(s): Mike, the proprietor, recently demonstrated concern and conscientious attention to a retired, limited income elderly customer, my mother about a job which showed problems months after. My very meek, timid elderly mother assumed that there was nothing she could do except to save her monies again to redo the same entire job for a third time. But Mike recently showed he did care to regain and sustain our previous years long trust and confidence in him by offering to fix the problem. In my book of professionalism, one of two most important traits of a true trustworthy professional business owner and contractor is their willingness and ability to maintain goodwill, conscientious customer relations. And Mike did show this recently. We are satisfied.

Unintended flaws can occur by any professional expert, because many hardware products as plumbing parts are being made overseas with cheap labor and warranties are now very short. But how a problem is fixed defines a conscientious contractor. Mike showed me he does care.

Mike at Cal Plumbing is everything you could want in a professional tradesman. He returns calls, gives honest estimates, is timely and punctual and being in Pacifica, he is local. He came recommended, gave me a quote after looking at a simple install of new sink, disposer, dishwasher and frig hook up. It was a lot less than another estimate I got. He came out did as promised with no issues and was a nice , clean & conscientious worker. Hooked up the gas stove as well. It's become kind of rare these days when people do exactly what they promise and maybe a bit more. Cal Plumbing delivers.

Mike and Larry were the best!!! I had a broken water heater in my rental home. They arrived on time and knew what to do to fix my problem.. They were Fast, Professional and the Best!! I have informed my renters if were have plumbing problems, at the house, CalPlumbing is the plumbing service to call. Mike's phone quote was on the money. The work area was left neat and clean. Great and knowledgeable guys to take care of plumbing problems. Go CalPlumbing Go!!

A called to CalPlumbing for someone to snake my shower drain... and, they were able to quote me an estimate.

Mike Barbieri showed up to do the job. He did a quick and clean job to my delight. Thank you Mike/ CalPlumbing. All the other outfits needed to come to see prior to quoting charges. Call CalPlumbing if you want something done quick and efficiently. Great customer service!

Mike is my new go-to plumber. We're doing a remodel of our garage area, and he rerouted some pipes, tucked others into the drywall, ran new water, drainage, and gas to an upstairs closet for a new laundry room, and replaced a cast-iron drainage pipe that had rotted away. He also ran a new water line for the backyard spigot, with an extension for irrigation. A pretty big job that he finished in two days by himself, at a price that was thousands less than another estimate.

Mike is conscientious. He cares about doing things right. When running a new gas line, he noticed my furnace's exhaust was rusted and broken, and suggested a fix until the HVAC guy came. When installing a drain vent running to the roof, he noticed some cracks in the tar around a different vent, and not only told me about it, but went to the hardware store to buy the patching compound and went back up to my roof to fix it himself at no charge.

I trust Mike and will use him for all my future plumbing projects. You should too.

Mike, the owner of Cal Plumbing, is the kind of contractor who answers the phone...or returns your call promptly. He was very responsive, professional and easy to work with. My project involved moving the water and gas connections from an adjoining laundry room to the garage side of the wall. He handled it quickly and expertly. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone. He knows what he's doing, works quickly and his pricing is very fair. There's no question about who I'd call the next time I need a plumber.

Mike did a great job repairing kitchen sink. Reasonably priced and done in a timely manner. I would recommend him for any plumbing needs you have.

Mike of Cal Plumbing not only failed to show for an appt today, but he failed to call or return my message. I won't ever hire nor refer Cal Plumbing again. I thought his hourly of $115 was a bit high as well.

Mike fixed a cracked sewer drain for us. He was easy to reach, very helpful and reasonably priced. We were quite happy and would call him again for another job.

Mike was very helpful. We were having some back up problem on our house drain, and, after some discussion, Mike suggested I call the city first to have them clear ""their side"". That is what they did and all our plumbing is back to normal.

Maybe other plumbers would do that, but he skipped the visit whereupon he could have charged an hourly visit charge or something.

Helpful and honest.
