After struggling to find a plumber who would show up when they said, we found Drain Masters. The experience was exceptional from the beginning. They answered the phone on first ring, scheduled an appt within 3 hours of me calling and arrived exactly at the scheduled time. They were efficient and fixed our problem for a very reasonable price. Overall great experience- highly recommend

One of our shower drains just started draining very slowly. I called Drainmasters (Chris). He had someone here in a couple hours - on time and fixed the problem. Absolutely great service and very, very reasonable fee. I think I have found my “go to” plumber in Santa Barbara.

Paul Dohm with Drain Masters who is so NICE came out on a Sunday to deal with what he thought was going to be a semi easy fix of cleaning our main line. Oh no, it turned into a 5hr job and required him to go back to their office to get an extension cable which he could have bypassed and easily sold us on installing an additional sweep, the cost would be in the thousands. A plumbers job is seriously so humbling...Paul was not phased in the least by a plethora of rolling terds down the driveway...literally! Paul bought us time and saved us money today on installing a sweep and when we do, Drain Masters

They arrived on time. The gentleman explained everything he was doing and why. His solution worked quickly and has not reoccurred. The price was very reasonable.

I've been counting on Drain Masters to solve my house's plumbing problem since 2015. They've always been professional and effective. Unfortunately, yours truly can get a bit lazy sometimes, and I've neglected to give them a rightfully-deserved review until now.

My kitchen drain was clogged over new year while I was away traveling, so my roommate called in another outfit. They were not able to fix it after several days of work. Once I came back, I called up Drain Masters, and they were able to clear everything the next day. Highly recommended.

So glad I called Drain Masters. My husband called another company on a Monday who said they could not come until Friday
Then they were a no show. I called Drain Masters and they were very friendly and professional. Got both my toilets working and at a very fair price.

Drain Maters is literally a life saver. We had a back up in our lines (roots growing) and called a competitor. After a extremely high quote to completely replace our front clay pipe, we had Drain Masters give us a second look. Not only did they come out quickly, but they ran a camera and determined there really wasn't an issue that required a complete overhaul after all. All that was necessary is regular maintenance and cleaning of the roots. Paul was honest, helpful and patient with all our questions. We couldn't recommend him and his company enough!

Called about slow flowing toilet. Paul came right on time as scheduled. Quickly ascertained the problem was hard water buildup. Cleared and didn't even charge because such a minor fix.
Highly recommend.

Chris saved us!!!

Thankfully we got a second opinion from Chris. We had a clogged drain and Integrity "snaked" and "camera" the drain. Told us there was a problem with our cast iron drain that needed to be replaced and rerouted externally, costing thousands of dollars. Chris told us this was absolutely a scam and Paul and Sean both cleaned out our drain and it has run perfectly since. We are so grateful to them for saving us thousands and do a fantastic job!!!

I've used Drain Masters for over 5 years. These guys quite honestly treat you like family. They are on time, clean, courteous and always conscious of our kids. I compare these guys to an honest mechanic; when you find one you stick with them. Thank you Chris and Paul for everything.

They were so great and were able to fix our problem! Another company wanted to charge us $2800 to change out a pipe because they couldn't get fully snake our shower (said it was getting stuck) and Drain masters was able to snake our shower and just fix it with that! We highly recommend Drain Masters

Speedy response. Thorough work completed efficiently. Corrected mistakes of previous plumber (large commercial franchise). Ran camera to check work at no extra charge. Made solid recommendations that were not aimed at gaining more work/money for company.

These are good guys and do good work. They're a family business and put in the extra care to make sure the work gets done right. The pricing is reasonable and they work quickly and efficiently. Ian helped replace some piping at my house and was awesome to work with.

I was looking for a new plumber in the Santa Barbara area, and based on information on Yelp and Edhat.com I gave Drain Masters a try. What a great find!

This father and son(s) team was professional, knowledgeable, honest, and prompt. I had a kitchen/garage drain line that was very stopped up and they got it cleaned out thoroughly despite the last plumber telling me eighteen months ago that he couldn't clean it completely and we needed a new pipe.

Chris made helpful suggestions on how to avoid the trouble in the future and has guaranteed me as a future customer.
