Company Overview

Since 1979, Gene Phillips Plumbing is a one-man operation where I take care of everything myself! Being a local ""one-man shop"" in Palm Desert, California, I can often provide same-day service. I bring more than 35 years of experience, specializing in troubleshooting, leak repairs, and the replacement or servicing of water heaters, toilets, disposals, faucets, water lines, and piping. I know that plumbing troubles can be annoying and disruptive. Rest assured, A Gene Phillips Plumbing will resolve your plumbing challenges quickly and effectively, with me handling all the work myself. Besides my industry know-how and trustworthiness, I am committed to delivering fair and clear pricing for every task. I am proud to provide high-quality workmanship, treating every project as if it were my own home, and you are my friendly neighbor, with exceptional and reliable service. My direct experience and true concern for resolving the issue, rather than just earning money, differentiate my service from the rest. My dad launched this business in 1950, and his four sons have upheld the tradition, with my brothers moving to different parts of the country. I stayed with my dad, working side by side until he passed away in 2015, and I have upheld his work and philosophy - to complete the work as you would expect it done for yourself... and... to treat customers justly and as friends in need. I crawled under houses with my dad, Clyde Phillips - a southern farm boy, when I was just 10, bringing him melted lead in a ladle to pour and hammer into sockets to connect cast iron sewer pipes. My father was taught by my grandfather, who created his own tools and methods on the farm in Georgia. I spent my childhood with my three brothers, assisting my dad on Saturdays while our friends enjoyed the park! We learned out of necessity. However, as we matured, we felt proud to work beside him and make him proud. I got my contractor's license in 1979 and began the business ""down valley"" in Palm Desert and Rancho Mirage. We worked together until he was 77! At 87, my dad passed away just last year. His favorite phrase was always, ""It's A Wonderful Life!""

I had a broken shower pipe and Gene was able to come to my home and accommodate my schedule. He made sure the repairs were done right and was very personable. I would recommend his service to all my family and friends for any plumbing needs. Thank you again Gene!

Our water heater broke and home warranty was taking forever to take care of it. I decided to call Gene Phillips instead. He gave me a fair price, came out and did the work right away, even during this pandemic crisis. The installation looks great He also fixed a wet plywood underneath the water heater, it got all wet due to the leak. The water is nice and hot, and no leaks. I really liked how responsive he was. He obviously knows what he is doing and I also like the fact that he is local so I can call him in the future if there are any problems or new work to be done around the house.

I have needed Gene's help twice. Each time he quickly responded to my phone call. He even scheduled an appointment for the repairs the same day. This is one honest and experienced plumber. Gene takes pride in his work and in helping to resolve his customer's plumbing issues. I had a bad experience with a larger plumbing/HVAC company but Gene came to my rescue. He will be my plumber from now on. Call him and you won't be disappointed.

Gene was great! We had an urgent water situation ... we had no water. I called, and he was able to shift his schedule and come right away with all the needed parts. The job was done quickly and done well.

Gene is very personable and honest. I plan to contact him for all our future plumbing needs.

I searched Yelp for a small business owner to do some plumbing work in our new home. I found Gene. We have an old toilet that we have decided for now to keep because we love the style. He repaired our toilet and stabilized it and it's not leaking or rocking. After talking with him I understood just how knowledgable he is in everything plumbing...he's awesome!

Reliable plumber who fixed our old clogged toilet. Some parts were replaced, toilet was snaked, and unclogged. Total was $265. I'd hire again if we have any more plumbing problems. Thanks for the assistance!

Gene was amazing. I had a leak in my bathroom sink, which another plumber. not only did not repair properly, but caused a new problem. I thought I would have to replace the two faucets in the adjoining bathroom sinks. Gene came and immediately saw the much simpler solution to fixing the leak. It cost a lot less than replacing the faucets.
Gene was knowledgeable, proactive in saving me money, personable, professional and very fair in his pricing.
I also appreciated his communication skills. Gene called me back almost immediately after I initially called him. He called to confirm his appointment with me and called again 10 minutes before he arrived.
He also assured me that if there was any further problem, that he would come back and take care of it.
I feel I have found a valuable treasure in working with with Gene, and I recommend him highly to anyone who wants top quality plumbing service.

I called Gene Phillips Plumbing for the first time this morning a little after eight to look at a couple of our toilets. When I spoke to Gene he gave me a time window. I explained to him that it would take me some time to get home. He called me 30-40 minutes before he was going to arrive which gave me plenty time to get home. My toilet issues ended up being minor. He did some adjusting all three of our toilets. He did replace a seal on one. Gene was very prompt, respectful and honest. I appreciated how thorough he was and his professionalism. I thought his pricing was very fair. I will definitely call Gene again for any plumbing needs that come up in the future. Many Thanks!
