Jesse and his crew came out to install a new sump pump in my basement and did a fantastic job at a fair price. He addressed all my concerns about capacity and noise with a great attitude. He is my first call for any plumbing issues from now on.

Not only they try to gauge you on the price since you have an emergency, the boss named Andrew is rude and shows up later than the time window he had promised (in this case 1 hour later). Went with another local Carpinteria pluming co. and they were great and not at all the price quoted by Mr Andrew.... stay away from these guys

We needed an old water filter system removed and a new one installed. Andrew showed up and get the job done quickly and efficiently. I'll definitely use them again.

We noticed a leak in our main water pipe and called Drain Charmers. Jesse fixed our pipe after digging 3 feet down to find the hole. Jesse is a gentleman and a great plumber. we feel grateful to Jesse and Drain Charmers.

Big props to Andrew! Responded quickly and then talked my son through the repair and refused to take payment for his time and expertise. So appreciative for the kindness and professionalism and knowledge. HIGHLY recommend and will always call Andrew first.

Andrew, Ramón, and Jesse came out to save the day for me! My old water mainline had burst and they installed a new mainline, pressure regulator and shutoff valves in 1 day!!! They were quick, efficient, smart, personable and reasonably priced! They work hard and are honest. They even cleaned up the yard after their work!

In addition, when the pressure regulator Andrew installed proved not to be as powerful as the mainline he installed, he CAME RIGHT OUT and replaced it with a new top-of-the-line regulator, no extra charge!!!

A pleasure to deal with. You won't be sorry! Drain Charmers is the BEST!!

I have been calling Andrew and his crew for a few years. Since it way back when it was Craig.
I have been having several plumbing issues the last few years. Andrew has always followed throw.
This week was the kitchen sink. Andrew sent out Ramon. He was friendly, thorough and didn't mind my shoot from the hip attitude. We hit it off great! He fixed my sink issues, and gave me options for the long term.
All in all a good experience and yes I will call them again when needed.

Scheduled to come to the house on a Wednesday. They were a no-show. Rescheduled for Thursday. They were a no-show again. Went with a different plumber who did the job for less than half of what I was quoted. I recommend you use somebody more reliable.

★★★★★

Andrew is honest, efficient, and friendly. He gave us an upfront estimate prior to starting the job and let us know we wouldn't be charged for the observer (plumber) he brought with him. Andrew replaced our leaky faucet in 30 minutes. It was a great plumbing experience after our horrible experience with Lewis Plumbing not repairing our leaky faucet and charging us for time and labor on the faucet they made leak worse.
