"Arturo and James was great. AMC plumbing that asked for pictures and didn't try to charge us to troubleshoot. We eventually settled on changing the water heater but we were informed at every step what is happening. Thanks for being to take all our questions and told us how to take care of the new water heater. Excellent!"

Hydro jet uses water at 4,000psi to clean the inside of the mainline drain which connects all the home's drains to the city's sewer system.
Using a snake we can go through the cleanouts on the side of the house.
With the cleanouts snaked, and the blockage located, we can send the hydro jet through the sewer vent and flush out the blocked drain.

"Billy provided excellent service from our emergency phone call, which he responded to promptly through replacement of a shower valve that was leaking and through the discovery and replacement of a corroded section of piping and the installation of a pressure regulator valve. The scope of the job, our options and his pricing were all clearly and fully explained in advance. He worked diligently all day and completed the job efficiently. He is skilled, personable, prompt and fair in pricing. The results were excellent. We will definitely call Billy again for future plumbing problems."

"I was very frustrated looking for an electrician when mine retired. I actually made appointments with 3 different electricians and none of them followed through. Out of desperation, I tried Angie's List. They sent me five companies, I sent a request for a quote at the same time to all five. Within 5 minutes I got a call from Pt Loma Electric.....VERY IMPRESSIVE. Even more impressive they could send me an electrician first thing the next morning...this call was around 6 pm. I immediately scheduled an appointment and when the other electrical companies called I told them I already had someone. This morning I was blessed with Mike Murphy, your electrician. He is incredibly professional, nicely dressed and cleaned up everything as he was doing the work. I had multiple outlets replaced, a light fixture installed and a circuit in my breaker box replaced. I would highly recommend him for any job...he knows what he is doing. Kudos to your entire team, from the design of the Angie's List quick response to the wonderful woman who called me and Mike Murphy. Sooooo smooth!!! Lastly I am a Real Estate Broker and I often hire an electrician to do work on my clients homes that they are buying or selling. I have found my company....Pt Loma Electric...."
