Doheny Plumbing

Had a clogged main line on a Saturday leaving me with no working toilets. My usual plumber couldn't get to me until Monday, so I called Doheny on a friend's recommendation. They were able to have someone out within 30 minutes of my call. Dave was the plumber, and he was friendly and polite. He fixed the issue quickly, and answered all of my questions satisfactorily. I will definitely call them again. Thank you!

They stepped up again!! Called for a service request for a client without hot water.

Not only did they send out someone right away, (even after another company said they could not get to it), BUT...they fixed the problem completely. Made everyone smile.
Anyone needing plumbing service who doesn't call them is realllly missing out.

Hats off to you, Doheny Plumbing!!!

I had a plumbing emergency disaster; faulty plumbing (previously done by someone else), a flooding house, and broken pipes. I immediately called Doheny Plumbing in a panic as water poured into my house. The owner Sandy was so calm and reassuring, told me what to do, and sent a plumber out immediately. What a lovely lady! Their plumber explained what the problems were and how to fix the situation in a way I could understand, and made me feel much calmer and confident in their work. Since I had such a mess to contend with, I subsequently had their plumbers working at my house for days. They were always on time, cleaned up after themselves, and were very polite and freindly. I highly recommend Doheny Plumbing easily over anyone else. They were very efficient, professional, offered fair prices, and made my very stressful situation a calm one which I couldn't have been happier with. Thank you especially to the incredibly nice owners, Jerry and Sandy!

Unbelievable. Just called about work they had done a year ago that failed, and they in essence said ... gee, that's really too bad. Wouldn't come out today, you're just going to have to wait until Monday, and of course you're going to have to pay. When we pushed back, they said ""well, I don't know what you want us to do about it"". When we said we'd take our business elsewhere, the answer was, okay have a nice weekend.

Suwat was our plumber that came out to fix our serious plumbing issue! Steve the owner took my call and directed Suwat to my home within an hour of my issue. Suwat arrived and immediately found the issue and fixed in less than 1 hour. I would recommend anyone to Doheny Plumbing! Thanks for the fast and great service! Great service, great price and honest!

I used Doheny Plumbing for over 10 years. I thought they have always been fair until the job they did a couple of weeks ago. We had a leak under the kitchen sink. They showed up on time as always. The guy found the leak in 5 minuets, it was a small quick disconnect fitting to our Grohe faucet. It is only about 2 inches long and made of plastic. He went to the supply house and retuned within 25 minuets with the part. It took him another 10 minuets to put in the new part so total time so far was about 40 minuets, as he was going to write up the bill he told me the part was like $95.00. I said how much and he said $95.00. To say the least I was totally shocked. The total bill came to $238.20 How could such a little thing cost so much, somebody is screwing somebody. Also when they tell a service call is $125.00 its actually $155.00, they don't mention a $30.00 charge for truck. After he was gone I went on line to see if I could find the little part for less $$. I did, and I actually bought one as a spare, cost me $41.00 delivered. So they over doubled what it cost them. NOW IF THAT IS NOT SCEWING A CUSTOMER I DON""T KNOW WHAT IS. Good buy to Doheny Pluming. Fool we once shame on you fool we twice shame on me

We had used them last year, and so thought that we would call them when our kitchen faucet corroded to weekend. I called today for an appointment, and tried to get an appointment for Wednesday. My wife and I both work, so we have someone at the house, but it's not a house owner. The only time that we could be there is on the www lends, which, of course, if their emergency rates. We have had a housesitter work with other contractors and workers before without a problem. However, this was not good enough for doheny plumbing. I will take my business elsewhere.

I called Doheny Plumbing because we had a nasty grease buildup in our kitchen drain line. We have an indoor clean out, so the repair required something more than a snake, it required hydrojetting.

One plumber claimed the line was broken, and brought cameras to look into the grease (good luck). One plumber diagnosed the problem correctly but could not jet out the line as he had no equipment. A company specializing in jetting refused to do the job, claiming it would make a big mess in our kitchen.

Doheny Plumbing sent out Jarod and Tim, who promptly, professionally and throughly solved our backup problem, with minimal interior backup which was easily contained with no mess, much less damage, in our kitchen.

If you want a job done correctly, call Doheny Plumbing.

I called because my garbage disposal didn't work. I was told it was shot and it would cost over $500 to replace. I said no thank you that that was just too much money. I called someone else out who stuck a broom handle in the disposal, moved the blades a bit and found a rock and a small spoon. Removed those two items and disposal works good as new!! I felt extremely taken advantage of AND they still charged me $160 for a service call!

I had a leak in the copper pipe at the house shut off valve. I discovered it a few days ago and seemed to be getting worse. I received a return call from Doheny in about 20 minutes and they sent Brian who arrived about 90 minutes later. I asked him to replace the shutoff valve also. It is a cramped work area with sprinkler and gas pipes right there. Bryan was great. He finished the job and checked for any other leaks including toilets. My bill was $426.39 including 2.5 hours of labor and (this is interesting) a $40 ""TOS"" charge. That stands for truck on site. I don't think I've ever been charged that before and sounds very creative . All in all I was pleased to get the work done expeditiously.
