Eldridge & Sons Plumbing

Overall, an excellent experience. Jason was friendly and efficient. I would absolutely use their service again.

Wade’s son Nick came over to install my Grundfos Comfort Series recirculating hot water pump. He was knowledgeable and pleasant to deal with and was able to complete the job in 1 hour. Most importantly, he did not overcharge me like most plumbers that I have dealt with in the past! I will for sure call Nick again to work on any plumbing issues I have in the future!

I like dealing with family-​owned businesses and, based on the recommendation of a friend, called Eldridge Plumbing at about 2:00 on a Friday regarding a stopped utility/​kitchen drain. My call was answered promptly and courteously, a plumber (Allan, I think) was at the house by 3:45 and the problem solved by 4:30. He went above-​and-​beyond by hosing off the patio where the clean-​out gunk ended up and doing a quick maintenance on an annoying toilet noise we’d been putting up with (at no extra charge). Nice!
I highly recommend Eldridge & Sons and will certainly call them for our plumbing needs in the future.

This place sucks! We had an appointment scheduled for this morning and nobody showed up. No phone call, no nothin’. We tried calling their shop and the line didn’t go through either. What horrible customer service, and a waste of our time.

the best! found them through Unilocal

These guys are amazing! Very very honest, knowledgeable and professional. Quick workers who are very careful when in your home. They spent more then half the day at our house replacing drain pipe and they did an incredible job. Chris, Nick, Wade– they are all great. They patiently took the time to answer all my questions. I have had a re– occurring drain problem for years, usually plumbers come in, and just put a band aid on it, charge too much, and don’t actually fix the problem. These guys have patience and knowledge and took the time to actually fix the problem at a reasonable price. These guys are really on the ball! I absolutely no hesitation in recommending them to all my family and friends.

I’ll be using Eldridge & Sons again. My house is a rental, and communicating from afar can be tough. You have to trust the plumber. I called Nick on a Saturday, and he picked-​up. It was a non-​emergency issue (a slow leak under the bathroom sink), but he got to the house on Monday. He diagnosed the problem quickly, and fixed it right away — the p-​trap had a hole in it. Nick seems fair and honest. Thanks Unilocal for the informative reviews.

If I could give these guys 10 stars I would. From Nicole in the office to Nick and Alex who did the work at our house on the 4^th of July… they were professional, courteous, knowledgable and took pride in their work. They were also honest and reasonable in their pricing. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again and refer to my friends and neighbors. It’s so refreshing to know there are still companies like this out there.

I had a difficult clog that another service provider was not able to clear. After a few hours working on it, the other provider left me in worse shape than I was in before they came. The tub went from draining slowly to not draining at all. They were apologetic but said they could not help me until Monday when they would replace my cast iron plumbing as the clog could not be cleared. There is only 1 bathroom in the house so I was left without a shower. Feeling a little bitter, as it was after 5pm on a Friday when they left and I knew I was going to have to pay overtime fees to another service, I called Eldridge & Sons. I left a message thinking I probably wouldn’t hear back until Monday. What a pleasant surprise when I got an immediate call back from Wade. He was still on the job site but agreed to show up first thing on Saturday morning. And I was so surprised to hear that his rate was not unreasonable! He knew I was in a tough spot and could have absolutely taken advantage of the situation and charged me a ton.
Wade showed up on Saturday morning when he said he would. He was very professional and friendly. Before taking the expensive repair route, he first tried to snake the drain. It worked! The clog that could not be cleared has been cleared! Again, he could have taken this opportunity to gouge me and make major repairs but instead he took the honest approach. And I was so grateful to him that I asked him if I could pay him more than his rate and he wouldn’t accept it!
It’s not often you find such a professional, responsive, honest and generally nice person in this situation. I am very grateful! Thank you, Wade!
And now I will go shower… :)

I was very impressed with fast service and fair pricing with Eldridge.
What I found to be exceptional was their unrelenting commitment to deliver top quality work.
This is a local business that absolutely understands the importance of customer satisfaction in every aspect of doing business.
My hot water heater bled out on a Tuesday morning… I called Eldridge and by the time I came home from on Tuesday evening, my new hot water heater was installed and working great. The owner, Wade, was very thorough about explaining what they were doing and why they were doing it.
Having to deal with something like this is never fun, but I’m happy to now have a go to plumber in Cambell.

The great reviews are true – Eldridge & Sons offer knowledgeable, responsive service. First, they call you back. Surprising how many trades do not. They were able to come out immediately and fix our plumbing issue. I would use again and highly recommend.

I’ve been using Eldridge & Sons since 2008 and haven’t been disappointed… ever.
Their first step is always to try to clarify the problem over the phone, and they often recommend simple things that you can do to determine whether or not you really need to schedule a service call. …And when they do show up at your door, they handle the engagement professionally and treat their customers fairly.
I’ve found their people to be knowledgeable and helpful, and they’re quite simply a great company to do business with.
Without any reservation, I recommend Eldridge & Sons very, very highly.

Honestly, I wanted to give 4.5 stars, due to a detail that was missed (see below). These guys replaced the 40-​ft main from the house to the city cleanout for us, to solve recurring issues with backups caused by root intrusion. their estimate was reasonable, and they completed the job quickly and stuck to the budget. they had to haul in some extra equipment due to unanticipated problems, but the minor increase in time and cost was fair and justified.
Overall the communication was good. the only issue was a couple of pvc irrigation pipes that were cut during the trenching were not repaired afterward, and were just buried. It wasn’t a big job for me to dig them up and repair them myself, but it would have been easier for them to do it before backfilling and compacting everything, or just to not bury them so I could repair them without digging them up and cleaning them out.
I’d highly recommend Eldridge & Sons, and will definitely call them for any future work.

I have used Eldridge and Sons Plumbing for many problems over the last 8 years. From a water heater replacement to replacing a faulty back flow valve, they have always been punctual, professional, and reasonably priced.
I highly recommend this company for any and all of your plumbing needs.

My tenant reported a water heater leak @ 8:00am. I called Wade Eldridge and they (Chris & Nick) were out that afternoon, on time. They brought a lighthearted attitude with them, and worked efficiently & resourcefully, as a team, — which counts, because they just charge you by the hour. Luckily, we had easy access to the unit, but I was also able to save some money by clearing the work zone and draining the heater prior to their arrival. New 40 gal heater, new flex lines, pipe cutting & soldering, new earthquake strapping, old heater gone — $ 762.
