Plotke Plumbing Encinitas, Inc.

I love this company! They have worked on my home for years. They are always honest, affordable and so nice. Recently Plotke worked on my dishwasher for an hour to discover it wasn’t the pipes that were the problem but the machine itself. So much care and attention and a teenie tiny bill!

wonderful service, easy pricing, nothing hidden or added later. great results! fix it right the first time!

I have called Plotke for many years. Their work is always done right the first time and the prices are fair.

This company is as good as it gets! Professional, reasonable, speedy — –what more could one ask?!

HONEST and ON OUR SIDE
Two days without a sink, dishes piling up and home remedies not working. Plumbers I called were not calling me back. At the end of my rope, called Plotke Plumbing. First they have someone to answer the phone. So reassuring. Next she told me to tighten the hose on the sprayer on the faucet! It worked and we are so grateful this company is honest. We have a new plumber when we need one!

Plotke Plumbing is knowledgeable about the business. Their employees are in and out and leave a clean workplace. The ladies in the office, Clara and Katie, are very helpful and pleasant to work with. Their prices are reasonable and I recommend them to anyone who needs an honest plumber!

After almost a month of problems with the shower in my apartment and a visit from another plumbing company, a friend recommended that I try out Plotke Plumbing. The technician arrived exactly when they specified he would. He was very friendly, professional, and patient. He was at my place for less than half an hour and had the problem completely fixed. My shower works great now, with no further problems.
I would definitely use this company again and will not hesitate to recommend them to my friends!!!

Have had a great experience with Plotke plumbing. Had a dripping leak in our second floor bathroom, that was intermittent. The folks that work there are very nice and professional. These plumbers dont try to upsell on the work, they just want to fix the problem. Very knowledgeable and helpful. Got the job done for us and were very reasonable. Thank you!

I need to give a shout out to Claire at Plotke Plumbing. Our water heater started leaking yesterday-​and although Plotke does not service the brand we have, Claire immediately called the manufacturer for me to check on our warrantee, and then found me another plumbing company who could come out the same day to service it. Fantastic customer service! Every plumber they’ve ever sent has been professional and helpful. I highly recommend Plotke!

This company is very unprofessional. I had one of their plumbers come to my home today and he had no idea what he was doing. They definitely over charge. The whole experience was horrible!

An old water pipe from the street to our house broke and was leaking. The water was turned off at the street to stop the leak and we called Plotke for an estimate. They were prompt, polite and knew what they were talking about. When they saw that I had a tankless water heater with a pump turned on and no water, they turned it off and explained that the pump would get burned out because no water was flowing through.
They were looking out for me as a customer instead of trying to get more business fixing a broken pump. I applaud them for their honesty.
They installed a new pipe from the street to the house and brought the manifold up to code. The workers answered all my questions. They were great.
As another reviewer wrote, «They are real plumbers.»
I highly recommend them.

My appliance guy Tom recommended them and I trust Tom because he is a super honest guy. Plotke are also his plumbers. I like to use the tradespeople that the other tradespeople use. I think they know who’s good and who is not.
If I could give more than 5 stars I would. I have used Plotke 2 times now and both experiences have been outstanding. They are REAL plumbers!!! It sounds like it shouldn’t be that hard, but most of the guys who show up from these companies that run commercials on TV are less trained than an apprentice.
The Plotke guys are seasoned plumbers who have seen it all and are very knowledgeable.
I had water in my carpet and had convinced myself it was a slab leak. The plumber showed up, opened the wall. Immediately zeroed in on the problem and right away went to fix it. Not a slab leak. Yay! It was a difficult job, with limited access, required cutting, replacing and sauntering pipes. All in, with finding the problem and repairing it was 2 hours labor, plus parts. They worked fast and consistently.
They are great, I highly recommend them. They are reasonably priced, experienced plumbers who get the job done.

I always dread calling plumbers to fix icky stuff around the house.
The expense, mess and smell of the workers are always irritants and leave me feeling skeevy.
This time we found Plotke through Unilocal and could not be happier.
We initially called Plotke with a toilet issue, but I asked if they could take a quick look at a shower handle made in Germany (because apparently the ex-​owners of the house couldn’t find anything suitable that would be replaced easily). He ran upstairs, worked on it a bit, and found the issue.
Plotke called the faucet company for us and ordered the part. They promptly came back and installed the faucet.
Neat.
Respectful, clean workers.
More than reasonable prices.
No more dread when it comes to plumbing issues.
Thanks Plotke!

We used Plotke plumbing to replace my hot water heater. They were in time, fast and efficient. The plumber was very quick and to the point.
I highly recommend.

Just fired Rescue Rooter and went with Plotke. Rescue Rooter wanted $ 850 to replace a burned out Grundfos Recirculating pump (household) — Plotke did it for $ 324.50. Fast — easy — honest — time and labor. Don’t screw with anyone else — you can trust these guys to do it right and charge and honest hours worth of work ($ 90 an hour plus materials)

I’ve used them many a time and always been happy with the results. Prompt, professional, affordable. What more could you ask for!

I’ve used Plotke for problems big and small for the past 6 years. I’ve probably had all their different plumbers come to my rescue from dripping faucets to toilet rebuilt and waterline leak. They are all courteous, professional and dependable; their price surprisingly reasonable. The best job they’ve done for me is to replace my old broken water heater and upgrade it to a tankless system. It works seamlessly with my water softener unit and circulating pump. It’s a joy to see my gas bill come down afterward. I highly recommend Plotke, it’s a local, family owned business with great customer service.

I called them to have a service performed. At the time of my call they were not sure if they could provide the type of service I needed. The lady on the phone indicated that she would run the problem past her manager. To my surprise she called back with a very prescriptive suggestion about how I might run a test on my own. This saved me time and money! The customer service is excellent and I will be back if I indeed have a problem.

I’ve used Plotke twice in the past 1−½ years. Both times to reroute hot water lines that the builder cleverly hid in the slab foundation, which then decide to leak after 20 years. Durnit.
Both times we received a written estimate prior to doing the work. Both times the actual job came in under estimate. On the first job, I was able to compare the estimate with virtually the exact same job they had done on my neighbor’s house (gotta love tract homes), so I know they weren’t just padding the estimate. They actually got it done for less!
Everyone I’ve dealt with has been un-​creepy. I mean, I don’t expect them to be my new bff, I just don’t want to worry about who’s in my house! They’ve shown up within the timeframe quoted and gotten the work done quicker than estimated.
I will for sure call them again if I need any plumbing work!

Set up a time for them to come from 8−10AM. They didn’t show and didn’t call. Called them and said they’d be there in 10 min… 30 min later still no show. I called and cancelled on them. Total looser!
