Able Plumbing & Drain Service

Scott, has been our plumber for over 16yrs. His work is excellent & fast & his prices are very fair

We contacted Scott Fiori, of Able Plumbing, very late in the evening through e-​mail. He answered and said he would be at our home at 8:30 in the morning. We had a new kitchen faucet that we found to be defective and needed to have him install a different new one. We also were having problems with the drain in the bath tub. We got a new faucet from Home Depot and had it ready when Scott arrived. He gave us a fair estimate before he started the job. He was very prompt, efficient and friendly. When he left, my husband said there was a leak under the sink. I called Scott and he came back within minutes. It turned out the drain in one of the sinks was ancient and my husband had probably banged it when he was trying to install the faucet. That was the leak. Scott had the pipe needed in his truck and fixed it immediately. I asked what we owed him for the unexpected work and he said nothing. I will call him from now any time we need a plumber and I will recommend him to friends.

Living in an old house in Serra Mesa we had the tubs clogged and backed up. in the morning I contacted Able plumbing and spoke with Scott the owner who picked up the phone and was patient as I explained the situation. He quoted me a price over the phone and let me know that if there was further issues and costs he would call and let me know right away.
The service took over an hour to fix and unclog and he still honored the original quote. Scott was extremely professional and knowledgeable yet easy to talk to in laymen terms.
I will definitely be calling him again with any future issues and recommending him to all my friends and family!
His services are an asset to Serra Mesa and the San Diego Community!

The company was recommended by another plumber we’ve used in the past and loved, but couldn’t accommodate my urgent request (clogged toilet). Scott responded my call fast and were able to come within an hour, the service was simple according to him and it was done in less than 10 minutes. He charged $ 125 for the service and even though I thought it was expensive I said yes because my desperate necessity. Its not that I wouldn’t recommend him, but if I had time to shop before deciding I would, however once your bathroom has poop all over it, theres little to think about.

After a long day at work all I wanted to do was come home and relax. When I got back home I was greeted by my daughter yelling. The toilet was clogged and overflowing heavily, it turns out that she tried to flush a newspaper down the toilet. I tried a plunger and some draino but that didn’t help at all. I remembered that one of my friends knows of a great plumbing company. I gave him a cool to get the information for the company. I made the call and was immediately speaking to a live person. I told him the problem I was having with my toilet. He suggested that he could send a plumber right away to repair my toilet. The Plumber arrived later than night and he used a special type of plunger to fix my toilet. It took him about 10 minutes to completely unclog everything. This surprised me very much. I heard they were fast, but not this fast! The plumber was very nice also, he was telling me stories about the types of things he found in customers toilets. I would rate this company five stars across the board. It was very a very simple and easy process.

I was charged $ 125 for a service call that took 15 minutes and was apparently an easy fix. I pointed out that this was the equivalent of charging $ 500 per hour and if that was their standard rate… I was told that the fee was per service (mind you a service that took 15 mins, in and out the door) and coming to my house. Even factoring in a fair «house call» rate and then an hourly fee still would have been less money. I would strongly recommend calling around, I was in a pinch and went wit who could come first, there are a million plumbers in SD, don’t use this one unless you are prepared for an outrageous pricing structure!

I have used Scott, from Able Plumbing for several years. He is very reliable and does fine work.

The city had some contractors do pipe work on our street a while back and since then, the water pressure in our house has been off. We couldn’t use multiple water lines (i.e, when showering, we couldn’t do laundry or use the sink. Otherwise, we would get almost no water running)
We first had the city come in and take a look at the pressure and they of course did not want to take responsibility and suggested that we needed a new regulator and change 2 of the valves. Scott showed up today and to assess the situation. He was able to isolate a few things and find the root cause of the problem in 20 mins. This was suppose to be a free of charge assessment (as he had mention over the phone), but since he help us figure what the problem was, we gave him a little of cash.
He does charge $ 95 a visit, so i would describe the problem with him over the phone and then be clear on what expectations are from both ends.

Scott has worked on little things we’ve had go on around the house and few times and has always been prompt and incredibly reasonable with his prices.
He is wonderful and I can’t say enough for what great work he does and what great customer service he provides.

I called Able Plumbing and Scott, the owner, answered the phone himself. He was friendly and offered to unclog the shower drain in my Serra Mesa home the same day. I also had him look at several other issues and he returned a few days later to fix both of my toilets a bathroom sink and he installed a new faucet and shower head I bought at Lowes.
Scott is a very nice and soft-​spoken man. He has a wonderful attention to detail and alerted me to some issues I didn’t even know I had. He as punctual and honest about the cost for the work.
Though I would like to keep him to myself as one of my «homeowner’s best-​kept secrets» I highly recommend Scott for both his excellent work and his great integrity!

Our toilet was running/​leaking and making a constant tapping noise. Gave Scott a call based on previous Unilocal reviews. He was so friendly on the phone. I was worried about being charged a crazy fee on a weekend, but he assured me that Saturday morning would cost the same as Monday. He also explained that he can come by, give me an estimate, and I can make my decision at that point, with no charge if I decided not to do anything.
Scott came by this morning to assess my situation, gave me a real picture of what was going on and what needed to be done and a quote.
We rent our unit, and because major work needed to be done, I needed to check with my landlord first.
Our landlord decided against it and told us he’d get it fixed himself.
If it was just me, I would have moved forward with Scott in a heartbeat. He was straight up and honest and I could tell he was all about doing an efficient job.

Scott was prompt and honest. Came and fixed my problem the best and most convenient way possible. I understand one can never know what you’re getting into until you’re there but the quote over the phone was very accurate.
I’m very happy to find someone in the neighborhood and will be recommended him as well as using him in the future.
Thanks!

Fast, professional and very reasonably priced! I’ve called this plumber twice and am completely satisfied with the service provided.

I had a clogged toilet in my rental unit. I called Able Plumbing and the owner (Scott Fiori) was able to come the same day. He fixed the problem and found that someone had thrown baby wipes in the toilet. He also wrote his finding on the receipt so I can charge the tenant for the call. Great service! I’ve used Able Plumbing a couple of times before and they’ve always been very reasonable and fair. I highly recommend them.

Scott came by today, replaced my broken garbage disposal and also did an excellent job replacing some old piping underneath our kitchen sink. He took the time to make sure everything fit right and left everything clean and working. He guarantees his work and is more than reasonable with what he charges.

I called on a Tuesday morning, and he said he could be here in an hour. Scott showed up on time and got right to work. He cleaned my shower/​tub drain that I lived with for 2+ years quickly. I would highly recommend him to anyone. In summary, great service, great price, great job.

I found Scott on Unilocal and decided to give him a call for a backed up drain. He came out the same day. I’ve since used him for a several other plumbing issues. I higly recommend Able Plumbing. He’s very professional, honest & does great work. Thank you Scott! I will be using Able Plumbing for any future issues as well.

We just had a plumbing emergency in our condo. The hot water in the tub would not shut off. We found Able Plumbing on Unilocal,called number and the owner of Able Plumbing, Scott Fiori arrived in minutes. Scott was professional, courteous and well mannered. He replaced the broken valve and the water was back on in 40 minutes. Scott is the guy we will call for future plumbing repairs we highly recommend him.

Scott Fiori, of Able Plumbing, is by far the best plumber I’ve ever called. In addition to knowing his stuff, he is friendly and, most importantly, honest. He’s repaired a leaky water filter and clogged bathroom drain for me. Based on the work he has done for me, I will continue to use him in the future.

I have been using Able Plumbing for 12+ years on my family’s apartment complexes (37+ units) and for my personal homes. Scott always shows up on time and fixes what is needed. I have never had to question a bill or what was being done. I have in the past and still highly recommend Able Plumbing to friends and aquaintences. They stand behind their work and are great to work with and are very trustworthy. Scott is the best there is.
