Licensed plumbers in San Diego, CA

Q: How many licensed plumbers are in San Diego?

496 plumbers hold an active Contractors State License Board (CSLB) licence with a mailing address in San Diego, checked on 3 November 2026. 250 of them have been licensed for 10 years or more.

Q: Does a plumber need a licence in California?

Yes, when the whole job, labour and materials, costs $1,000 or more or needs a permit. Below that, California's minor-work exemption (B&P Code 7048) applies, but only if they work alone. Look for an active C-36 licence.

Q: How do I check a plumber's licence in San Diego?

Ask for the licence number and look it up on the CSLB website, or search this page. Every plumber listed here was matched to an active licence on the CSLB register.

Q: Which plumbers rank highest in San Diego?

By our published formula (years licensed, complaint record, bond and insurance, and Google reviews), the top three are American Plumbing (100), Bob Jenson Air Conditioning Inc (98), Courtesy Plumbing Inc (98). Paying or claiming a listing never changes the order.

Q: How much do plumbers charge in San Diego?

Q: Do I need a lead-safe certified plumber in San Diego?

If your home was built before 1978 and the work disturbs paint, yes: federal law requires an EPA Lead-Safe certified firm. 52% of homes here were built before 1980 (US Census, ACS 2024 5-year), and 28 of the 496 licensed plumbers listed are certified.
