CVB Plumbing

Jeff, you did an awesome job on the 1225 moen unit. Your timing was right on time. Great service, efficiency in fixing the problem. My wife and I would be glad to recommend CVB Plumbing.

I heard about Jay through a friend and asked for an estimate to replace old full spin shower knobs for my laundry room washer with standard 1/4 turns. Jay provided an estimate for a single visit (more work for the drywaller) and a two-visit (stubbing out initially and returning when the drywall was done).

Both estimates were reasonably priced, and much more affordable than I'd been quoted on several other local companies. Not only did he do an excellent job, but he was happy to look at other issues in the house and give his opinion and provide ballpark estimates. And on top of it, since I'd spent the time and effort to remove the drywall in preparation for his visit, he didn't charge me what he'd estimated, as he said his estimate had included time for removing the drywall. His honesty is refreshing -- he could have easily charged me the extra money as it wasn't discussed in our emails. I will definitely be calling Jay for any future plumbing needs.

Thanks, CVB Plumbing and Jay! Job well done!!

AWESOME plumbing company. Very reliable, professional and work ethics are tops! Overall job quality is great. The plumber, Jeff, was on time, did not dilly-dally and got the job done right the first time. Highly recommended!! Their goal to ""simply be the best"" is not without merit - they are simply the best!

On July 2, CVB plumbing sent out a plumber who was beyond incompetent but also invasive.

Although my landlord initiated the service of a plumber over a washing machine issue (Which definitely was at the fault of my landlord and should have just been dealt with through the manufacturer of the washing machine), the plumber Jay spent an hour and half doing no work and being creepy at the same time.

Jay spent 30 minutes in the house before walking into my room and telling me he wasn't sure what the problem was with washing machine. I told him it was backed up and went to look at it. He was surprised upon opening the lid of the washing machine and seeing that it was full of water which was a dead giveaway that he had not even looked at it in his 30 minutes of doing ""work"".

He acted very odd when I found him in my roommate's room (who wasn't home at the time) and slipped out of the room, barely opening the door enough to get out before closing it quickly.

He came into my room one more time before he left an hour and half later to tell me that it was indeed a machine issue (......which could have most likely been assessed within the first 20 minutes....) He said the washing machine rep would have to come out to take a look at it and that he couldn't do anything. I asked if he had a pump that he could use to at least help get the water out of the machine but he refused to help, claiming at first that he ""didn't have one"" and then changing his story to only having a large one.

He left the house because his work was done but sat in his truck for another 15 minutes just looking at the house. I went back into my room and a few minutes later heard a man's voice in the house. He was informing my 3rd roommate that he had forgotten ""something"" (and wouldn't specify what) in the other roommate's room so he needed to get it and proceeded to walk into the unattended room. My roommate followed him and asked what he forgot and if he had found it, to which he said that he ""must not have forgotten it after all"" (whatever ""it"" is?) and left empty handed.

Regardless of the issue stemming from the actual machine and not from there being a plumbing problem, Jay was very unprofessional and overstepped common sense boundaries.

While I can clearly not speak of his actual work seeing as I saw NO WORK take place, I would recommend going a different route in plumbers completely, due to the unprofessional behavior. He wasted an hour and a half of time doing nothing and proceeded to make myself and my other female roommate feel incredibly uncomfortable.

CVB fixed my pluming issues but left my bathroom an utter mess tracking drywall and dirt through my house. I spent an hour sweeping,mopping and wiping down everything! Not what I wanted to come home to after a day of work.

Absolutely top notch company. Knowledgeable,ethical,reliable the absolute best. Jay is the go to guy for emergency intrusions or a plain old service call. Prices are always fair he has been a preferred vendor with my property management company for over 10 years and brings double that and then some with his experience .

Terrific service, very professional, honest and reasonable. In for the long haul not for a quick buck.

CVB was recommended by my real estate agent. I lived in St. Louis when I bought a fixer upper in San Diego. From the first phone call, Vic was knowledgeable, informative and even ballparked the job from my verbal description which included new pipe from the kitchen, bath and a new main sewer line run of approx. 50 feet. Vic provided an estimate a cou[ple days later and then performed all the work while I was in St. Louis wrapping up the sale of my home there. When I came back the work was done properly and per the original estimate. Vic & Jay are great! We even had an issue with the city where the sewer hooked up and Vic got them out there, argued with them that the issue was their problem as it was under the street and ultimately, San Diego made the final repairs at no charge to me.
Now we are opening a small business that will require plumbing and Vic has come to two possible locations to help us make sure the sites will work for our use. Vic, Jay & CVB WILL get all of my plumbing work now and in the future. Great guys...Great company!

CVB Plumbing has helped us on a few occasions. Always able to come the same day or the next day. Workers are very professional and timely. Will not do any unnecessary work and their prices are great. Thanks for helping us out of our latest jam. Will be calling again if you are needed.

I just had a new gas line installed by CVB and Jay did great work and was very helpful and explained things. He also fixed a couple of leaky valves we had for our washing machine. This was the second time I called CVB and both jobs were done fine.

My only downgrade is that you need to go through an answering service to reach them and so communication was a little split up as I was submitting my own drawings to the City for the permit. Emailing did help.

Everything worked out ok in the end though. I would call them again.

(And he came and gave me a free estimate for the gas line too... other places wanted to charge to come out and see what had to be done to install the gas line).
