Donny was great! Thank you ensuring I got service since we were from out of town.
Travis & Jeremy repaired a broken drain line to my septic tank. The line was much deeper than we had anticipated which required a lot of digging.

Really prompt! Kept in touch every step of the way. Left the property like they found it. Expensive..but gave us a little discount. Would call them again if needed!
Martin was right in time the first night, very straight forward with what he could do to fix our issue, the inexpensive way that wouldn't hold long or the right way that would give us 25 years peace of mind.

Lalo was knowledgeable, friendly and courteous. He was great at solving problems and explained what needed to be done very well. The job was done quickly and efficiently.
Very pleased with this company and with the plumber Ryan Cooper. I got quality service for a tough job that was earlier than I had hoped for. Very very happy customer. Price was right.
I've used Cal's two times now. Both times they showed how professional and knowledgeable they are about their work. They are the only company I trust to get the job done correctly.
The original problem, an old tankless water heater, is being consulted on but a second problem I didn’t think to call them on got resolved: a water main was exposed in digging a rain garden. He simply diverted the water main, taking it out of the water garden.
Great job done fixing a faulty faucet. Efficient, professional and friendly. Donnie is AWESOME such a nice guy who knows his stuff. He did a great job for us. Thank you Sooo much Donnie. 👍
Everything about this company was professional and top notch. They were there by next day and got a large job completed with two days. Technician was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, timely and expert at what he does. It was exceptional service all around.
Initially scheduled an appointment to have a new kitchen faucet installed. Was able to get an appointment within a few days. The plumber was on time, personable and professional. After replacing the faucet he checked the water pressure going into the house and found it was high. He checked the pressure regulator…

I have been using Cal’s for all my plumbing needs since 2006. Their work has always been excellent. The most recent repair was a leaking toilet seal. Matt did a great job.
A knowledgeable and personable professional that fixed our current situation and alerted us to possible future troubles to be aware of. Highly recommend.
