Independent Plumbing & Drain Care is now my go-to-plumber. A honest company providing quality work. LT and Corey explained everything in a way which was understandable with camera views. This gave a refreshingly real time update showing the issues which was a kitchen sink backing up along with a hallway bathroom. LT and Corey took the time to explain and make an unbearable situation bearable. These two individuals were prepared and ready to tackle the issue and now my pipes are clean. Quality and efficiency at its BEST!! The pricing is unbeatable, first plumbers who are not in the business to make a buck. A true GEM for which I thank the stars above for letting my fingers due the scrolling and landing on a jackpot of a business. THANK YOU LT and Corey!!

Chuckie

Independent Plumbing is a solid, trustworthy Ventura-based plumbing company staffed with cost-conscious employees willing to go the extra distance to see the job finished correctly. I feel very comfortable recommending Independent Plumbing to those individuals residing in the Pierpont area, elderly and/or women for providing potential customers with the correct, cost-effective diagnosis and proposed repair to your plumbing problem(s) performed the first time with integrity, efficiency and the foresight into building a long-term, repeat customer relationship. In the present case, I called upon Independent Plumbing on January 12, 2026 to assess and provide a completely independent quote for plumbing services to rectify the penultimate, greedy plumbing disaster created by another local, more popular "family run" eight letter plumbing company "G" ending in "s". Understandably reticent, Lawrence, or "LT" from Independent Plumbing placed me at ease with his personable approach and actually listening to our particular situation and not focusing on upselling unnecessary services. However, the foregoing is not the primary impetus for submitting this 5 star review of and/or strongly recommending Independent Plumbing, but the subsequent actions of LT and Cory that set them apart. On Friday, January 16, 2026, LT phoned me at approx. 4:30 pm to let me know that they were stuck in Simi Valley traffic and unable to make it back to Pierpont to finish the installation of our toilet (delay caused by waiting for the concrete to dry). I responded to LT that I had to leave the next day and that no one would be up to Ventura for a few weeks. LT and Cory showed up at 6:30 pm on Friday to finish the job without any attitude. After talking with them, they had, without a doubt, a crappy day that would cause virtually every employee to give up and call it a day yet, LT and Cory soldiered on with positivity, professionalism and a determination to finish. At 8:30 pm LT and Cory rolled out with a job well done. The measure of individual's or a company's "integrity" is registered, not by their reaction to when everything goes right, but when something goes south. From my experience, Independent Plumbing is worthy of recommendation and/or a solicitation for an independent, free estimate of plumbing services before proceeding with another plumbing company. You will be pleasantly surprised by how much money and drama Independent Plumbing can save you.

This message is for Sean. I wanna reach out and congratulate you on having employees who take into consideration, customer service. There are lots of people who can do the work, but customer service is Paramount for me. Especially since I have to rely on people to execute from out of town. Your guy ERIC was exceptional. Not only did he address the needs that were obvious to me, but he also took care of some issues I didn't foresee. I will gladly and happily use you guys going forward in the future. It's important to have reliable contractors, and peace of mind when it comes to the upkeep of my properties. Thanks again and please let ERIC know what a great job he did.
