Classic Drains & Plumbing

Tom H.

I called on a Monday to have a leak repaired. James informed me that he could have a tech out here the next day. Brian showed up on time, He was very professional, courteous, and informative . He took care of my issue very quickly. The service from beginning to end was top notch!, thank you.

A Saturday call to the plumber is never fun! But today when the shower water came up the toilet and vice versa, we used our plumbing insurance and just like that, Classic Drains was at our home (45 minute drive to our rural location). James the owner made quick work of cleaning out our main line (we have a clean out in front of our home) and on he went. His machine was new and quiet and efficient.
Now on to the rest of my weekend!

I called this plumbing company because they offered senior discounts I needed both my toilets snaked out with the electric snake to make sure everything was OK in my older home. The gentleman came, nice person, he was literally in the house for no more than 5 minutes. He came out carrying a hand snake contraption and charged me $155.00!! Yes, it was a Saturday but that was OK according to them. AND that was with the discount. I clearly, am in the wrong job. $155.00 for 5 minutes work??? I ended up having to spend another $250 for 2 new toilets with someone else. What a waste of $155.00.

We've used these guys for multiple plumbing projects and have always been very pleased. Emergency calls, scheduled projects, anything plumbing - these are the ones to call.

Tonight while I was at my hockey game, I got a call from my wife telling me our showers and toilets were backing up. Clearly that's what you wanna hear while you're driving home at 7pm and completely sweaty and sticky.

She checked on yelp and found Classic Drains and told me about their reviews and ratings. I have to shower this filth off me so there was no choice.. we needed a plumber.

We called and they said they'd be at our home within an hour. 25min later when I got home my wife told me they'd be here in 5min (yes, they gave us updates at to their arrival).

When Brian got here, my man wasted not time at all. He got to work and fixed the problem. We have root intrusion in our lines and this is something we're going to have to deal with soon. The news wasn't the greatest, but my man was completely honest and upfront about the situation. What more could you ask for?!

Brian fixed our problem quickly and professionally. There is no doubt that if/when I encounter plumbing problems in the future, I'll give these guys a call!

Needed someone to unclog our toilet ASAP. It was a Sunday afternoon. Gave them a ring and after 30 minutes Brian returned my call saying that he'd be by in another two hrs. We got a few text messages keeping us posted; Brian also called giving a heads up.
When he arrived, he promptly got to work. He was very friendly and seemed very knowledgeable about our situation. He remedied the problem easily, quickly, and bleached the area afterwards.
Prices were surprising considering it was over the weekend and on call. I would DEFINITELY recommend these guys and use them again if necessary.

Completely disgusted with James the owner of this company. My father who is 85 years old was hung up on when he tried to call the main number for the business and spoke with the owner. My father had an appointment that one of his employees made during the weekend. The owner was rude and did not want to even give my dad an estimate for the work his employee already quoted. Then the owner told my dad that there would be a travel charge from Salinas to North Monterey (Elkhorn Rd.) even though we live in the same County.

When my father confirmed that one of his employees took some time out to stop by and take a look at the plumbing work the owner stated that they are not supposed to give out quotes unless he knows about it. He would not even agree to the quote that my father was given and when he stated that he was a Veteran and a Senior the owner didn't even seem to care. While on the phone my father started getting upset for being disrespected and James (the owner) ended the call by hanging up on him.

Customer Service should be on the top of the list for this company and treating my father the way James did when it was his own employee that gave the quote is poor business practice and poor customer service. We'll be going with someone else to have the work done with an estimate for repairs at a cost of $600.00 to $1,000.00.

If you want to be treated with respect consider someone else for your plumbing work.

Discovered this morning we had to replace our 50 gal. waterheater. We have used this company before for average drain problems and wanted to stick with them. James and a helper came out within an hour of my call. The helper left to pick up all equipment while James stayed and prepped the area. Very knowledgeable and professional. Didn't waste time, worked efficiently, awesome job. Great experience. Highly recommend.

Arrived on time and replaced my water heater (slightly complicated) in the time estimated and for the price quoted. Yes, he(James) was busy when I called but called me back that evening with all the right info and totally professional. Worth any wait that may be experienced in my opinion.

Every time Classic Plumbing has been on time, clean, and professional. James installed my dishwasher and did a bathroom fix. He was there when he said he would be. I recommend Classic.
