G-K Plumbing & Heating Inc.

I’ve used G-​K twice to assist with plumbing repairs: once for a major issue, and once for a BUNCH of minor issues. The major issue was a pipe leak in a very inconvenient area of the attic, and the plumber identified the issue and replaced the section of pipe on the same visit. The other situation was a house-​full of leaky faucets, running toilets, a plugged drain, and maintenance on our tank-​less water heater.
No drama, they get the job done, and extremely professional. I will use them again as my first call for help!

I called to have some new faucets installed for a bathroom sink and 2 toilets. Dave upsold me on new «quality» angle stops for a kitchen that I did not ask for but thought maybe a good idea. I was thinkign how much can this cost. 3 vists later I get a bll for $ 1300.00. I only get 1 toilet installed, 1 new presure valve which they charged me $ 170.00 for the part on Amazon for $ 85.00. new angle stops for my kitchen sink. He ran a hose for the fridge (dummy me the refridgerator delivery company was willing to do it and I said «oh no» I got a guy. I feel completly taken advantage of. Dave works slow, tells me stories of past plumbing jobs where he was the hero and all the while i pay. I have used other plumbers in Los Angeles, licensed, and bonded that worked fast did several new sinks, gas cooktop ovens, toilet etc and charged max $ 1000.00. I get a bill for $ 1300.00 and none of the work i asked for was ever done. Buyer beware. they are VERY nice, folksy and seem competent. In reality he is a smooth talker, a slow worker and you pay for his BS stories. he is not a worker. Next time I will not do «time and material» but ask for a project cost. he wanted to come back the next day to install the next toilet. I would have had to have lost my mind… that would probably set me back another $ 1000.00

I’ve had GK Plumbing and Heating out for two jobs. In each case, Steven F. took his time, explained how I could perform some future maintenance inexpensively or free, and fixed the problem at hand. His repairs are excellent and others could have turned both jobs into far more expensive projects.

David is an excellent plumber and heating guy. When I replaced my hot water heater, he kindly hauled it out the long way, rather than take it through the music studio (our garage). I love these folks. Gary came early on a Saturday morning to repair our plastic piping, and did not charge extra for Saturday. They are worth every penny.

G&K did a great fix in a hurry for a leaking bathtub above my garage several months back so i gave them a call for another plumbing issue i recently ran into. They provided great plumbing advice for a problem I had at no charge. I appreciate their honesty and would absolutely recommend them to others having plumbing issues.

Stay away — overpriced and incompetent. Had plumbers come to do a simple faucet and shower replacement. They charged a lot, didn’t give me an itemzized parts list when they sent their bill in the mail but charged over $ 200.00. When problems came up a few days later, they came back and reinstalled a $ 10.00 faucet from ACE hardware, didn’t caulk and now the handle is falling apart. Wondering what else is faulty with their work.

I have had G/​K fix a number of plumbing problems (clear drains, dishwasher issues, install valves, caulk tub) at my apt and house and they are always fast and dependable. Gary has always answered my questions and has offered to do extra things to fill out the hourly based service call when I call for something simple.
I have since moved and looked into more local plumbers and still G/K’s rate (while still high in my mind) is cheaper than the others I looked up on Unilocal.Since they didnt have any Unilocal I felt a review was worth putting up — I called this AM for a non-​emergency and G/​K sent a plumber out to my house in under 3 hours
i have used G/​K in 5 – 6 situations and have had only positive experiences

Just had a Dave from G K Plumbing pull out a Moen and install a Hansgrohe kitchen faucet. The hourly rate was a little high but he finished in less than an hour and half. I sat with him the whole time and he was very professional and obviously very experienced. The only bummer is that they charge for driving time but even so, the bill was less than the other two quotes (they charged for the job instead of hourly). My only complaint is that I wish they were a bit closer. I would definitely use them again in the future.
