    Called Andrew for help with a leaking kitchen faucet. As usual, his team did a great job of fixing it and leaving things tidy. Thank you Jesse and crew for working on a holiday! So nice to have a reliable local plumber that is always responsive when you need help.

    Andrew from Drain Charmer was great! He saved the day after our scheduled plumber bailed last minute. He was prompt and very helpful and insightful on the inspection we needed. Highly recommend.

    Andrew and Jesse did an excellent job installing a whole home water system and new water heater. They were professional and thorough, staying late to make sure we were happy with the result. We are very happy with the result and we will be using Drain Charmers again in the future.

    Excellent work. Very responsive. Came same day. Reasonable price. Good workmanship. I don’t know how it could get much better than that.

    Andrew at Drain Charmer Plumbing & Rooter in Santa Barbara CA is charming and charmed our emergency plumbing disaster at midnight on a Friday. Not only did he fix it calmly, expertly and professionally, but he did it over video chat telling me what to do at each stage so I felt like we were bro’ing it out together. The end result was a perfect job done in no time at all and an honest to god good feeling that there are great people out there like Andrew who care, take the time and are not after a bucket load of money. In fact he refused to let us pay him at all. A great person l’d recommend to anyone, any time. Left us with a warm (and dry) feeling! Thank you Andrew :)

    We had a weekend plumbing leak and the crew at Drain Charmer were so helpful, caring, and truly professional in fixing our issue. They went way beyond good service and we wouldn’t hesitate to call them with any future plumbing needs. We couldn’t be more pleased.

    We’ve had an excellent experience with Drain Charmer Plumbing. Every time we’ve called, Andrew—the owner—has been responsive, professional, and incredibly helpful. They always arrive on time, quickly diagnose the issue, and get it fixed efficiently. The team is knowledgeable, courteous, and leaves the work area clean and tidy. Pricing is fair and clearly explained upfront, with no surprises. I highly recommend Drain Charmer Plumbing to anyone looking for a reliable and honest plumbing company. We won’t be using anyone else in the future!

    Andrew was fair and very polite and very professional. I live out of town three hours away from CARPINTERIA ca. his response was great and his service was excellent. I know it’s difficult to schedule people on short notice, but he did the best he could and we appreciate all his effort. Thank you again, Andrew

    I’ve used Drain Charmer Plumbing and Rooter for many years at my Carpinteria home. They are always on time and always know how to fix my plumbing issues. Today’s visit was no exception. Jesse and Andrew were able to unclog a stubborn drain. They never gave up and now it drains like new.

    These guys are the best. Called at 4pm and they were there working at 8am the next day and found a bad repair that had been causing backups. Professional, clean and intelligent crew. Will do business again!

    Andrew came by on a Saturday to look at a water heater issue. He solved the problem and was polite and knowledgeable. Hope I dont have another plumbing problem but , if I do, I would definitely call drain charmer!

    A few days ago Andrew replaced my water heater the same day I called to announce the leak. The next day I texted him with questions about how to maintain the heater so it lasts longer. He spent 2 hours texting back and forth with me explaining how to do the yearly flush-out of both my units. I didn’t know how to do anything so it took sending photos in which Andrew patiently circled the knobs I needed to find and explained exactly how to do it. He is the best plumber I’ve found. I’ve used him for many jobs in the past and will continue to call on Andrew for my plumbing problems.

    We had a plumbing emergency early on a Sunday morning, and while every other company told us we’d have to wait until the next day, Andrew and his team came through when we needed them most. They arrived within an hour! The customer service was outstanding from the start. Our technician, Jesse, was prompt, called ahead with his ETA, and resolved the issue quickly and professionally. Truly top-notch service — highly recommend them to anyone in need of fast, reliable, and friendly plumbing help.

    My experience with Drain Charmer Plumbing and Rooter Inc. was top notch. They showed up at the agreed upon time and date. The installation of moen leak detector (required by home insurance) was fast, and seamless. The work was completed at agreed upon price. All my questions were answered and testing, verifications and functionality of device was demonstrated before crew left site. I would highly recommend this company!

    Drain Charmer replaced my water heater which included installation of all requirements that comply with code regulations. They were quick, knowledgeable, and cleaned up the work area efficiently. I especially liked that they were available to do the job the day after I called with my problem. Highly recommended.

    Last week we had a new dishwasher put in from Home Depot. There still was a problem and the guy from Home Depot told me he’s not a plumber so he could not fix it so I was calling around some random plumbers. Came across Andrew. Very nice. Great sense of humor. He helped us out with our problem over the phone for free. He knew exactly what was wrong. We really appreciate his experience. Plumbing, I would highly recommend him😃

    I’ve never had a better plumbing experience. Andrew at Drain Charmer is a legend—fast, incredibly skilled, and friendly. He diagnosed the issue in minutes and fixed it with zero hassle. Communication was top-notch, and he treated my home with great care.

    Prices surprised me—in a good way. Honest quotes up front, no surprise charges, and the quality was worth every penny. The work held up perfectly, and I’ve saved so much stress since.

    If you want a reliable, value-packed plumbing job, call Drain Charmer and ask for Andrew. Highly recommend them.
