Almco Plumbing

Free listing

Almco Plumbing (Almco Plumbing Inc) is a San Diego company on a verified C-36 license that, unusually, publishes concrete water heater prices: descaling at $350, a 50-gallon tank replacement at $2,800–$3,200, and tank-to-tankless conversion at $4,800–$6,500. It states a written one-year warranty on water heater installations and advertises same-day service. The site’s “since 2001” claim is not supported by the 2018 license issue date.

Ask before hiring

  • No street address is shown on the site — confirm the shop location and whether visits are by appointment
  • No 24/7 or emergency claim is published — ask about after-hours failures
