Plumbing reviews in La Mesa, California

What a fantastic experience! Great and charming store!! So fun and friendly! Must go and see! The music is fantastic too!!! What a joy!!

Saw the van haulin an RV through El Paso this morning! The whole experience had that Hollywood FBI surveillance van energy to it!

Needed a new water heater and they were there to install it quickly. Fast and friendly. Will recommend to everyone.

Todd and his people have a professional attitude and bearing. They will not steer you wrong and give you a fair and reasonable price and professional work

I was recommended to here, by a local small business -- as I needed a piece to my toilet. So I called here, rather than calling/going to the large-name store. The result: just an answering machine. This is what VERY LIKELY CAN result, when anyone gives that small business a try. I gave a l very detailed message to this, on the answering machine -- as one had the time to pick up the phone, if wanting had wanted to.

Had an emergency with my kitchen sink. The garbage disposal stopped working and clogged the sink. Called them and had someone out right away. Got a brand new garbage disposal installed same day. Very happy with service and communication. Thank you!

My whole family and I have been using Earl Fite Plumbing since the 1980's. We will never go elsewhere. We had an issue with a loose faucet. I was upset because it came loose again the next week. They came out no questions asked a repaired it again at no charge.

Todd and his guys are trustworthy, communicative, and knowledgeable. We know we can count on Earl Fite to get the job done at a fair price. Highly recommend!

I would like to give Mike a great thanks for taking care of my refrigerator water supply issue so quickly. He is very efficient and knowledgeable. I'm very lucky to find a responsible plumbing company in Earl Fite.

Todd and the crew are great! As an Electrical Contractor I refer Todd all the time and I’ve never gotten bad feedback. In addition Todd and the guys have done many service and new installs at our house. I highly recommend Todd and the guys!

I wish I could say I had a good experience with them. When we used a rental property on Augusta Court and they were always top notch. So when we bought our first property we felt the one thing we didn't need to worry about was a decent plumber.

Yesterday I had them over and they billed $725 for a kitchen faucet, bathroom faucet, and bathroom shower. All complete replacements from new parts we had purchased. I've come to realize after talking with several different plumbers of how badly we were ripped off at their charging of $125 for each hour of their work. I'd like to point out that this one bathroom faucet took 3 entire hours of following instructions to install. Many times I had to assist him. When it was installed after two hours it leaked and he was trying to fix the leak. Why are we trying to fix the leak on a brand new expensive faucet? He should have told us immediately that we had a bad faucet and that we'd be entirely replacing it with a new one for the amount that we had already paid for the faucet. So I ran to the local hardware store and picked up an additional one (same model) and he went to work again. This time the install took 35 minutes and without a leak. So 2 1/2 hours of installing and then trying to fix the leak all while billing at $125 an hour. It's also worthy of note that they charged me for the parts he used to try to fix the leak on the original faucet that wound up not even being usable.

We also came to learn that they charge for travel time. Charging their full rate of the job on the travel. I wish I could paid for the jobs I travel to. I guess the plumber must have been thinking about the job he was going to do on the faucets to justify the $125 an hour while driving.

I've had good experiences in the past with Todd and this was was made me stick with this company. But I think it's now a matter of Todd having help and they're not entirely communicating all that is happening. Todd as the face of your company you need to make sure people are having good experiences otherwise people like myself will look another plumber. My wife's boss at work recommended Courtesy Plumbers - so we're going to stick with them from now on.

Final note: Charging customers for travel expenses is bad policy.

Positive Note: Todd did tell my wife he'd refund my wife the travel expenses. But quoted her the wrong amount for the refund.

Todd and other employees showed up promptly during COVID-pandemic with masks and a friendly/helpful demeanor. We should have called them sooner instead of trying to fix the plumbing issue ourselves first! We have actually used Earl Fite since 2001 because they always get the problem fixed promptly, communicate well, and clean up after the job. I will continue to use Earl Fite for all of our plumbing issues in the future. We've called them for toilet and sink clogs and also to loosen up tree roots in our pipes. They have necessary equipment needed for all jobs, big or small.

Very professional and trustworthy. The only plumbing company that I trust to be in my home. Always on time and on budget. Multiple family members have used Earl Fife & Sons Plumbing on many occasions. I would highly recommend Earl W Fite & Sons Plumbing.

I have used Fite plumbing multiple times over 20 years. They did amazing work at fair prices at my house on Mount Helix as well as the house I purchased approximately 4 years ago when I downsized.

They installed a new tankless water heater and Whole home water softener and filtration system (which I absolutely love) and installed plumbing so I could have both regular water (city main) and filtered water out side my home for irrigation and washing cars or fill dog bowls.

I have always been happy with the work the do from the initial discussion of work to the start and completion of jobs.

They have helped out in emergency situations where other companies wanted me to just turn the water off at the main or not use the plumbing until their work hours.

I would and have recommended them repeatedly to family and friends with great results.

We purchased a home in 2018, and the inspection report indicated several plumbing issues. We have repaired four of those issues using Earl Fite and couldn’t be more pleased. All four issues (sewer vent not attached, leak/crack in pipe under the house/ leaky faucet bib in backyard/ kitchen sink pipe came apart) were resolved super quick and always with a smile. They know what they are doing, and do it quickly. Highly recommend!

Todd Tufteland and Earl W Fite & Sons Plumbing was given to me as a referral during the sale of our home. We are in escrow and had some plumbing repairs that needed to be handled as a result of the inspection. Todd and his team were AWESOME in getting the work done quickly and efficiently. Todd is very communicative and explained in a clear and concise manner what needed to be done. Very professional and provided excellent service. I wish we had know of Earl W Fite & Sons upon moving to La Mesa 7 years ago!

Great expertise and value. Amazing customer service.

Ricardo and Ivan Are Amazing Always On Time and In Doing Their Job! Just Great Customer Service!

I have done business with Almighty for many years now and
I highly recommend that you consider using then to help you!
Matt and his employees really go the extra mile to assist.

The last thing I wanted to do during Covid is hire someone for a house call, but it was entirely worth it. They came within an hour, did the job and beyond, and had no intention of overcharging me. Will rely upon again in the future.

Had a great experience with almighty, they installed a new water heater and replaced my bathroom faucets. George was friendly and knowledgeable. I would use them for any further plumbing needs.
