Mr. Speedy Plumbing-West Hollywood

Harri O.

These guys are awesome. Tony showed up when he said he would and was great to work with-- a very nice guy who seems to know his job well. He worked quickly and was very thorough. I have had not so great experiences with rooters in the past, so I'm so glad to have found someone I feel like I can trust and rely on.

Tony kicks ass! Seriously, called at 5:30 before the 4th of July and he was here by 7, and managed to completely obliterate a massive stoppage (roots were growing in our pipes!) in our weird, weird old house. Completely in control and professional and just a great dude on the customer's side. Would definitely make Mr. Speedy my go-to for any plumbing problem.

Had a new faucet and garbage disposal system fitted today, all very last minute and Rafael did a fantastic job. Very pleased!!!

Prompt, on time, smart appearance and he clearly knew everything he needed to know.

Thanks Mr Speedy and Rafael

Had a great experience. They were able to get here right away which was nice. Tony was super friendly and went above and beyond. Did a great job, highly recommend.

Tony was great, as soon as he got here he dove right in. We have guests coming into town tomorrow and we needed a working bathroom. He was very informative and was conscious of potential costs. He worked at it for 2 and a half hours and was honest throughout the process. He pulled plenty out of the line before calling in reinforcements.

When was the last time you called a plumber (or any home repair service for that matter) and they said, ""I'm going to save you $200, you can just do that yourself -- it's easy""?

I had just purchased a brand, spanking new fridge with all the bells and whistles and couldn't wait to use it. I was already dreaming of that first cold beer, when the when the delivery guy woke me up and said, ""We just deliver the thing, you need to call a plumber to install the water line."" So I called Mr Speedy Plumbing and spoke with Fred who made my day. Three minutes after speaking with him, the water dispenser on the fridge was pouring out cold water and the ice maker starting making ice. By the time I finish this review, my beer should be cold!

I had been putting off contacting a plummer for
multiple problems so i decided to check out
Avenues Club app and called Mr Speedy

Tony came and fixed/unlocked my disposal in the kitchen. Very fast and friendly service. Tony was very professional and helpful. I would use this plumbing company again. Thank you.

Came out super fast on a Friday night when we had 30 people coming over and took care of a serious backup. Great service and fast...

I had a sewer gas problem. I found these guys on yelp.

Speedy came over and put a camera down the pipes, seemed to figure out a lot that way. There was an issue with how the pipes were attached so they put some glue in between the pipes.

It took less than an hour, and they charged me $750. In their defense they did wait outside for 30+ minutes so maybe they charged me for that. Still 750 is pretty steep.

A few weeks later, I still have sewer gas. They did tell me the first try was not guaranteed, and it might need more work. It could turn into a major job. However, I am hesitant to call them back because if a half hour is $750 I sure don't want them working on a big job. Scary prices with these guys.

They do seem more competent than most plumbers.

Update- they are coming back tomorrow and seem to be willing to fix it for no charge. We will see. It's very hard to pin these guys down to a price until the work is done and it's too late. They refuse to talk about hourly rates.

EDIT- I upped this review from 2 stars to 3 stars. After meeting with them in person and talking for a long time, here's what I can tell you:

These guys are ABOVE AVERAGE. However their prices are quite high. I don't think they are the rock stars of the plumbing world. I'd pay these prices if they were the best of the best like they say they are, but they are not elite at what they do.

I've gotten conflicting statements from them such as
""that will fix your problem for sure"" vs ""we can't be sure what will fix it, it's trial and error.""

In the 2nd visit they were ready to leave 3 or 4 times without ever getting to the bottom of the problem. They give up too easy on diagnosing. They had not checked pipes in the attic or under the house in the crawl space yet, and they were ready to hit the road saying ""I don't know what else to tell ya."" I continued to question them and question them in order for them to check the attic and crawl space. They seemed to think ""let's just say whatever we have to say in order to get out of here and keep the $750 we charged him last time.""

Also, as I said earlier they are a bit slippery and refuse to quote a hourly rate. Well this time I got it- $118 per hour per guy. Even the assistant guy gets $118.

I have a small amount of knowledge on plumbing from re-modeling houses, and was able to use that to get these guys to make a more solid attempt at diagnosing the issue. the average person would not have this knowledge and so I would not recommend these guys for complex problems. Also, the average person might not crawl around in the foundation and attic like I did. I had to go in along side these guys because their vibe was a bit lazy. They give up too easy.

If you have a basic job these guys would be fine, but expensive. They are reliable and they show up on time. If it's a hard job, they are not the top of the line plumbers you're looking for.

Another Update
These guys called me up after they read this review and said ""I'm furious about the review."" Another interesting quote was ""I'm very disappointed in you Casey"" which is something you might say to a 10 year old, not a customer who gave you $750 for an hour or 2 of work.

The guy who called was pretty confrontational. Maybe Speedy thinks they can bully customers into taking down negative reviews.

In any event, it's poor customer service. When someone gives you a 3 star review, it's not something to be furious or confrontational about. Calling about a review AT ALL is not cool. If you're gonna call, call to fix and issue or give a refund.

Anyway, I'm done with these guys. They charged me 750 to put a camera down a pipe and then put glue on it. They did a half-ass job of diagnosis. Then they got confrontational with me about this review, which I think is pretty fair overall. I'm not bashing them or making any personal attacks, I'm just telling you their skill level is above average once they know the issue, and their prices are sky high.

But if you're in the mood for a plumber who tries to overcharge you and intimidate you, call Mr. Speedy.
