Company Overview

Run by a dedicated plumbing expert who values precision, I aim to provide outstanding service for your plumbing requirements. I take great pleasure in my craft and hope you consider me for your plumbing needs. No task is too minor!

I offer free plumbing assessments, including free estimates and water pressure tests. Excessive water pressure may lead to leaks in your home, and it can also damage appliances while wasting water!

My services encompass the replacement of toilet and under-sink water shut-off valves and plumbing connectors. I also replace and repair faucets, including valves for tubs and showers. I manage toilet repairs and replacements, bidet installations, installation of soap dispensers, installation and servicing of water filters and reverse osmosis systems, services for instant hot water systems, ice maker connections, replacing food waste disposals and push-button air switch installations. I handle dishwasher installations, installation of water service valves, pressure regulators, pressure relief valves, and hose faucet replacements. I handle water heater installations and repairs - which includes circulation pump services, temperature and pressure relief valve installations, venting for combustion appliances, and installing safety pans. I also perform gas work such as water heater, furnace, and kitchen gas valves/connections, and seismically-actuated gas shut-off valves. I provide caulk removal and recaulking for fixtures. Minor drain cleaning and toilet stoppages.

I do not offer services such as cleaning of sewer lines; repiping; tankless water heater services; extensive gas work.

After a decade with a respected plumbing contractor in Santa Barbara, I took the leap to run my own plumbing company!

Owning my own company has brought me great satisfaction and enables me to help clients with their plumbing challenges.

Took care of the problem in a timely manner. Have used him before and will use him again.

Had Richard out last week to fix toilet flange, install new fixtures in shower, fix outdoor water spout and a few other miscellaneous items. As always, Richard protected the area he was working in with drop cloths, and always leave everything clean. He pays attention to detail, and quickly repaired the little things too. This is my second time using Richard and I will never use a different plumber again. He is trustworthy, reasonably priced and very professional.

I Have used Richard for at least five different jobs over the past few years. He is meticulous, professional and does things the right way. Sometimes this may take a little longer and cost a bit more, but in the end the job is done right. I have never had to ask him to come back on any job that he has done for me. Richard's prices are not the lowest in the area, but if you are willing to pay a fair price for a job well done then he is your guy. Highly recommended for his attention to detail and excellent work.

Called Richard for a food disposal fix in the morning and it got fixed right away in the afternoon. Price is reasonable and service is great! It's been working perfectly. Recommended.

This is the 3rd or 4th time I've used Wildwood, and if I need a plumbing problem solved, I'll use them again. Whatever the job, whatever the time it takes, Richard does the work and does it completely.

Richard came out quickly and did a great job at a fair price. He arrived in the designated time zone and quickly assessed and fixed the problem. He was neat and clean and really pays attention to details.

Richard is extremely knowledgeable and professional. He arrived at our house only 15 minutes after I called him. He went out of his way after our appointment to send me more information about our problem. I highly recommend him.

As you may notice I hardly ever write reviews whether good or bad as I am constantly traveling for business. I am compelled to write this review just based on my telephone call with Richard, the owner as I was just blown away with his arrogant and most unprofessional attitude. I told him I needed a new water heater and asked him how much it would cost. He seemed very leery to give me a price to replace my water heater and told me that because he has such good reviews on Yelp and Angie's List, most of his callers don't even bother to ask for a price because he has such a good following! He also mentioned he is so busy that he doesn't even have the time to handle all of his customers, so I assume that' why he more or less told me to go elsewhere. I was just so surprised by his demeanor because I asked him for an approximate price that he told me to shop around and even gave me the number of another plumber. The funny thing was that I told him I did not shop around at all as of yet but would do so after the way he spoke to me. I'm sure Richard is a very good plumber and most probably is fairly priced, the problem I have is the way he handled my phone call by almost purposely making me search elsewhere for a plumber because I insulted his integrity by asking for a price over the phone....It's a shame Richard because I had no problem with your price and would have used you, it was your phone etiquette that turned me off... I'm sure Richard will reply back with his own version.

Richard is the best! I called him on a Saturday when I was moving into my new place and he came over within hours and worked quietly and efficiently to get my fridge and washer and dryer hooked up. He did a great job and was gone before I knew it. What a pleasure to deal with someone like Richard. Highly recommend him and would use him again.

As a new homeowner, it was super scary to be in a position to need to call a plumber and feel like my hands were tied because I needed help but had no idea what the cost would be. I am so glad we called Richard.

We had naively bought a washer/dryer that did not properly fit in our laundry room. I didn't know what to do to make it work, short of returning them. Richard came and changed out all our gas/water line fixtures so that everything now fits, the connections are solid (I would have been constantly worried about leaks had we done it ourselves) and it was $300. Worth its weight in gold!!

Richard was laid back, we coordinated our busy schedules via text and he was super flexible. I rest easy knowing we now have a reliable plumber we can call for any future emergencies.
