Recommended Customer Reviews

Wonderful communication, very fair prices, great work, immediate call back and ease of scheduling are a few of the reasons I will not hesitate to call them for my next plumbing needs!

I hired Lead & Oakum plumbing to install an ejector pump and repipe water lines. Not only are they reasonably priced but their work was excellent. They completed the job quickly, efficiently, and with the utmost professionalism..
I will definitely use them for my future plumbing needs!

I cannot say enough great things about these plumbing wizards! Lead & Oakum have become my trusted and go to plumbers not only for my personal home but for my entire real estate business. Benny and Jay have so much pride and they truly care about their customers. They saved me from a disaster and I am forever grateful they spoke up and provided excellent advice. Of all the contracting trades, I am able to refer these guys with the utmost confidence. Thank you team for always providing A++ service! -E

Jay installed a tankless water heater outside our house. The price was absolutely right and Jay and his assistant were courteous, on-time and professional. They came back and flushed the tank for us six months later at no charge. Great guys and we'll use them again, I'm sure.

Let me say this whenever you call, and need them they are there.
I have a couple restaurants in downtown san Diego and we've been using Lead & Oakum since their founding.
Every experience with them has been pleasant, profesional and we know we've been treated respectfully and fairly. Jay and his partner makes us feel that our job is important to them and they take the time to really listen to our description of the problem and will come in and make sure the right tech is sent to the restaurant to complete the job. If you are looking for a company that cares and treats you fairly, stop looking for the right price. Look for who's going to treat you fairly, price you correctly, and get the job done once and for all. You won't be disappointed.

We've used Lead & Oakum for all of our consultative needs in our rental home. Every single plumbing issue we've had has not only been responded to ASAP, but with careful analyzation around what causes the issue and what preventive measures we can take to ensure the issue doesn't happen again. Love these guys and use them time and time again for all of our plumbing needs.

I met these guys when they helped out as part of a full bathroom renovation. We then called them up to install an outdoor shower on our patio, and we needed the work done quickly. They came right out, figured out a plan, and got it done. They did excellent work and even added some stylistic touches that really went above and beyond. These guys are fantastic and I highly recommend them.

Great service and price. Had main drain stopped up by tree roots. Had estimates by 3 plumbing services, they were lowest price, if you want good service and a great deal I recommend them highly. Job was fantastic

I wanted to do some home improvements in my home such as a better shower head and bathroom faucets. Jay came in and handled that job like it was easy. Did a fantastic job!! Thanks bro

Over the weekend, my son shoved a few items down the toilet and I needed a plumber quickly to dislodge his toy cars. Luckily, I came across Load & Oakum Plumbing, and their technician Jay, was on it right away. With the short notice given, they showed up in reasonable time, and cleared out the pipes quickly and efficiently. Would definitely recommend them to those needing someone in a hurry.
