What Coronado Express Plumbing is
Coronado Express Plumbing is an emergency plumbing line for homes and businesses in Coronado, California. You call (619) 927-0312, describe the problem, and we dispatch a licensed and insured plumber to your address. Our business address is 836 Orange Ave, Coronado, CA 92118.
We serve Coronado and nearby towns, with dedicated pages for Chula Vista and San Diego. The line is staffed 24/7 because pipes fail on nights, weekends and holidays as often as on weekday mornings. Same-day appointments are offered when the schedule allows.
How a call works from start to finish
We keep the process short, because people who call us are often standing in water or smelling something wrong.
You call the line
Tell the dispatcher what is happening, where you are and whether anyone is in danger. If you smell gas, leave the building first and call 911 or SDG&E from a safe place.
A plumber is assigned
We send a licensed and insured plumber. You will hear honest timing and not a number we cannot stand behind.
The price comes before the work
The plumber looks at the problem, explains what is wrong and gives a clear price before work starts. You decide whether to proceed.
The repair is completed
The plumber makes the repair, cleans up and tells you what to watch for afterward.
What we do not do
We do not promise an arrival time. Traffic on the bridge, on State Route 75 along the Silver Strand and on city streets changes all day, and a promised window we miss helps nobody. We do not publish prices on this site either, because the right price depends on what the plumber finds.
We do not advertise ratings or review scores, and we will not tell you a job is bigger than it is. If a problem can wait for a daytime visit, we say so. If a problem is a gas leak, the right call is 911 or SDG&E and not a plumber.
How to check any plumber's license, ours included
You should not have to take our word for it, or anyone else's.
- Go to cslb.ca.gov, the website of the Contractors State License Board.
- Look up the license number the plumber gives you, or search by business name.
- Confirm the classification is C-36, which is the plumbing class.
- Check that the license status is active and that the business name matches the paperwork you are given.
- Ask the plumber to show proof of insurance if you want to see it, and keep a copy of any written estimate.
Where we work
Our home base is Coronado, which includes areas such as the Country Club area, the Glorietta area, the Coronado Cays and the Strand Naval Housing on the south side. Calls from any part of the city start at the same line. You can read about each part of town on our service areas page.
Across the bay, plumbers cross the San Diego-Coronado Bridge for downtown San Diego or head down the Silver Strand on State Route 75 toward Chula Vista. If you are unsure whether your address is covered, call and ask. The dispatcher will tell you honestly.
The work we dispatch for
Most calls involve a short list of problems. These include clogged drains and sewer backups, leaking or burst pipes, water heaters that stop heating, running toilets and failing fixtures. The full list is on our services page, and planned work such as new fixtures or a water heater swap can be scheduled for a daytime visit.
For repairs that need a permit, rules vary, so ask the Coronado Building Division. The division can be reached at (619) 522-7331. In Coronado, a plumber can clear stoppages and repair leaks in pipes, valves or fixtures without a permit, but replacing a defective concealed drain pipe or installing a water heater requires one.
How to reach us
The fastest way to reach a plumber is the phone at (619) 927-0312, any hour. For non-urgent questions you can email contact@expressplumbercoronado.com. We do not use online forms, so there is nothing to fill in. Details on what to have ready are on the contact page.
