I have requested Claudio’s help on many occasions over the years, I’m so glad I found him! Not only does he fix whatever my plumbing problem is in the house, his prices are fair and I trust him implicitly. He explains what he’s doing and gives me suggestions of what new fixtures might be good to buy when I ask his advice. He always gets back with me when I text or call. And the best part of all is that he has the patience to listen to my husband’s jokes. If I found a plumber who charged considerably less, I would still use Claudio because it’s rare in this world to find someone you can reliably trust to be there and help you out. End of story.

The job ended up being more involved that originally thought. The valves under the sink were frozen shut. Since they were extremely old and outdated they needed replacement. Both jobs were done in a couple hours and turned out very well.

It went very well. Claudio replied to my request for an estimate promptly. He came when he said he would. He texted me when he was delayed. He got me a new water heater and installed it promptly. He was very easy to communicate with.

I've used Claudio several times over the years. A couple of days ago I had a small water heater leak but Claudio couldn't come that day, so I called another plumber. They did the work, but told me my regulator was about to blow and I needed a new one. They quoted $1,500, with a $200 senior discount. I called Claudio, gave him the specs from the other company. He came and installed the regulator the next day for $638. Claudio is knowledgeable, professional, and from now on I won't use another plumber. A1 service all the way. Can't recommend him highly enough.

Mr. [Member Name Removed], I am certain I sent you an estimate, however I apologize for not following up to confirm you received it. Since this happened back in May of 2019, over a year ago, there is not much we can do. However, contacting us sooner would have helpful as we would have had the opportunity to address the issue sooner.

Claudio quickly replaced a leaking non-threaded main water line faucet by cutting and soldering on a new threaded one on and it no longer leaks. Any future leaks can now be resolved by unscrewing the threaded the faucet and replacing it myself. He also provided helpful advice when asked about potential issues regarding caulking our kitchen sink. This is the second time Claudio has helped us with unexpected plumbing issues and we plan on calling him again for help in the future should the need arise.

Claudio was very cordial and pleasant to work with. When I called him to describe the problem, he asked for a few photographs to confirm the problem that needs to be addressed. He gave me a ballpark estimate, came over to look at the heater and sent me the final estimate, which was very close to the first estimate. He came over the next day and installed a 40 gallon Bradford White water heater, replaced the water and gas connectors, installed new drainage pan, temperature and pressure release valves, and thermal expansion tank. The old plywood was replaced with a new board, and the whole recess cabinet area looks like new now. He did a very thorough and clean job, which is very much appreciated. He was straightforward and delivered on his promises. I will recommend Claudio without hesitation for plumbing jobs of these kind.
Description of Work: My water heater died and there was no hot water. The heater was more than 20 years old and the recess cabinet in which it was installed had some old plywood boards that needed replacement.

Claudio showed up as scheduled and said he could do the job. I gave him a deposit and he said he would order parts. After approximately a week I called him and he still didn't have the parts and said it was his wife's birthday and that was why he didn't get things done. I few days later he called and said to find another plumber because he had food poisoning and a pinched nerve. I asked for a refund and still have never received one. I would never use his services again.

Response from Caravaggio Plumbing
As always I am appreciative of any feedback I receive on Angieslist and am grateful for the business as well, however, in this case the facts are slightly distorted. I was called out to address several plumbing issues. It was too much to be done in one visit, none the less I was able to work on one of her projects. I charged her $129 service fee for the work I did that day. I needed to order parts for the rest of the work. I contacted at least three wholesalers but since her faucet fixtures were outdated it was difficult to find parts. I constantly kept her in the loop of what was going on. I called her and let her know that her parts were difficult to get and would take 3-6 weeks. Regardless of my various attempts to obtain the parts she was not satisfied. She could not understand why it would take so long to acquire the parts. I did my best to explain the situation to no avail. Unfortunately, in the interim , I got sick and pulled a muscle in my back. I called her to explain and she was not happy. I suggested she call another plumber since I was instructed by my Dr to take some time off. She responded by complaining that the initial $129 service fee, was too expensive. I offered to refund her half the money or whatever she thought was fair. I never received a response from her.

Claudio is extremely personable and takes the time to answer your questions thoroughly. He installed 7 new quarter turn angle valves (in place of the multi-turn valves and a supply hose. He cleaned out a shower drain and upstairs bath sink drain. He also reassembled a p-trap that I had taken apart. I am impressed and very pleased with his work. I highly recommend him.

Claudio helped me pick out a toilet and he arrived on time to replace my old toilet and faucet and he worked tirelessly and efficiently until both jobs were completed. He also did a great job of cleaning up afterwards. I won't hesitate to hire him again and I highly recommend his work.

It went great! Claudio Carvaggio, is trustworthy, does excellent work, and I would hire and recommend him to anyone. In this world full of shyster contractors, it is so nice to know that there are still some honest people who are willing to work with you, and do an honest job for an honest price.

After we established contact by telephone, Claudio Caravaggio came out the next day to evaluate the situation. My home is rented to a tenant, and I live 200 miles away, so all of our communication had to be by phone, and I had to trust that plumber guy on the other end of the phone... I'm pretty good about sizing other people up, so, we talked a lot on the phone, even about things that had nothing to do with plumbing. That part is important too, the learning about the values and work ethics of who you will choose to hire to work for you. To get the job done correctly, safely, and properly. There a lot of scoundrels out there, lusting after your money, who will "cut and run" once they get your dough, and Claudio is not one of them, not at all. After much phone talking (and "sizing up" LOL), I felt no need to contact other plumbers for competitive estimates to fix the water leak. Claudio did the needed repairs, and his copper pipe soldering was solid, done right, and amazingly beautiful, bordering on artwork. I also had Claudio perform a de-scaling on my Noritz tankless hot water heater while he was there. If you own a tankless, be sure to have it de-scaled every two years or so, depending on your water hardness level. Claudio is a journeyman plumber who is without a doubt "into his craft". That is to say, he loves what he does for a living. I know from that, I have been a German Car mechanic all my life. I can recognize when others in different trades are into their crafts. Claudio is into his craft, he loves it, and it shows. Fellow homeowners, you have a lot of choices when your home needs repair. Lucky for us, there is Angies list dot com, where we have the freedom to choose from the top of the heap of people we need to help us out when we need that help. Thank you, to all the great guys 'n gals at the top of Angie's List who repair the home owner things we are not able to deal with ourselves, and to get those repairs done right the first time. The trust, when dealing with contractors, this is so important. Claudio Caravaggio has my trust, 100%. I have no need to look anywhere else to handle my plumbing problems should they arise in the future.
Description of Work: My home in the Santa Susana Knolls of Simi Valley, built in 1986, which I have owned since 1993, developed an underground leak where the water main line feeds the house through a pressure regulator. What to do about it? Angie's List to the rescue! I contacted Caravaggio Plumbing. They had the highest 'A' rating, with over 350 positive reviews.
