Recommended Customer Reviews

Excellent work. Professional guys who helped me figure out a very complex and involved plumbing MESS. The knowledge and workmanship are wonderful. Would 100% recommend this business.

I used TopDog to install my new kitchen sink. They were professional and competitive and worked late to make sure I didn't go without a working sink for several days due to a granite size issue. I cannot say enough good things. The whole experience was so positive.

Late on a Friday, after my ""regular"" plumber wasn't able to clear a drain line in a 1960's vintage fourplex, I TOTALLY lucked out in finding Ed at TopDog Plumbing.
Ed from TopDog came out and was able to ""jet"" the line and get the water flowing, averting a short term disaster. But he informed me there was still some obstruction in the line. He recommended coming back with a camera to scope the line in order to determine the best approach for a fix.
With the camera, Ed was able to venture down the line, to the point of the obstruction. The high resolution image showed that tree roots had breached the 60 year old cast iron pipe. Then, with the camera detection tool, Ed precisely located the problem pipe under the slab foundation. Yes, this all resulted in some jackhammering and exposing and replacing the damaged section of pipe. But, I believe, with another company, the repair recommendation could have been so much more extensive - and EXPENSIVE!
Many thanks to Ed and Andy for repairing only what was necessary and not seeing this work as an opportunity for a huge upsell! My wife and I are fortunate to have a few rental properties with highly valued long term tenants. For us, big expenses can be a nightmare. That's why, if I could give Ed & TopDog Plumbing more than 5 stars, I would.
On your list of trusted professionals, along with Doctor, Lawyer and Mechanic; add Ed @ TopDog Plumbing! I know I have!

Today, I had an after hours, older home, disaster of my own making. Unfortunately, a good steak in the kitchen turned into an almost disaster we could ill afford. Our ""regular guy"", a dear friend, was out of town. HE referred us here. We could not be more grateful. Despite the after hours, ""yuck"" nature, and self-induced circumstances... this gentleman was gracious and kind. He educated me about my older system and the best way to avoid the small disaster I had created on this occasion. He saved us money at least twice that I noticed with my limited experience, nor did he charge for any work he ensured my husband could aptly handle. He was very warm and understanding of the family going on around him, and I thought the way he talked to my 8 pound Yorkie Alarm System was quite a hoot! It is so good to know there are still small businesses in the world running the ways I LOVE TO SUPPORT!! I had been feeling so badly and my hubby was stressed most of the night. This business took amazing care of us, even though he knew we were someone else's long time customer. He was FANTASTIC in every way, and while I wish I had not caused the event itself, we could not have had a better experience or outcome.

Five star review for Ed Massengale, Top Dog Plumbing. He obtained and installed an electric/solar assist water heater to replace the original in my house. He recommended a brand with a better warranty than my original had, and was fast and efficient in installing the new one. He also disposed of the old one. Easy to work with, fair pricing, with more than 20 years experience in plumbing. It's a pleasure to recommend a reliable, experienced, licensed professional for anyone who needs plumbing work done. As his website says,
TopDog offers residential and commercial plumbing services in Sacramento, Auburn, Citrus Heights, and surrounding areas.

I live in Carmichael. I had an electric tankless hot water heater installed. He was very skillful, a good communicator, on time, had all the parts he needed and was pleasant to work with. My only complaint is that he left two 6"" holes in my drywall, which looks shabby.

Topdog Plumbing was a godsend in an emergency situation and very helpful and professional. We needed an emergency fix to a water heater line in an old house with plumbing from 1957. He was able to figure out the issue and create a fix in almost no time at all, at a very fair price (especially considering it was an emergency and we needed the service quickly). Great customer service. Ed and his son were extremely friendly, helpful and professional and very good at what they do. Highly recommend.

Ed was very professional and friendly.He saved me tens of thousands of dollars with his years of expertise. I have already recommended him to a good friend of mine.

Have used Ed for a few things now in my home and business and he is always professional, does good work, has quick response times and reliable.

Have used Ed on several jobs from water heater swaps to tearing out a kitchen floor to repair a sewer pipe as well as full bathroom remodels. He is responsive, priced very fairly and honest all while doing great work. Have referred him to friends and they are all very appreciative of finding a great plumber. Beyond happy to have found Ed as a trustworthy plumbing contractor.
