Since 1914, we have been providing quality plumbing service and repair  to San Diego residents from our shop (located in a historically designated building) in a small commercial section of Mission Hills.  Our mission is to provide quality plumbing for the health and safety of our community.

In 1914, Luther Powers started this operation in Downtown San Diego and he made his way to Mission Hills. In 1923, we opened our current shop location. In 1969, we  incorporated as  L B Powers & Son.  The employees of the shop have carried on the legacy started by Luther Powers who left it to his son Calvin Powers.   Recently,  Phil Stull  has semi-retired and has transferred the legacy to Janet O'Dea who has been named as the President of the Company.  He will be stepping down in a few years so the tradition of passing the baton to an employee continues

L.B. Powers & Son has served multiple generations of families as our clients  throughout the area. Today our clients ask us for plumbing and heating service and repair on historic homes, newer buildings and on remodels and restorations.  We are specialists and have experience fixing a great variety of plumbing systems  simply because our clients properties range from homes built in the late 1800's to new renovations and everything in between. This gives us a unique experience that we apply when we work with you to serve your plumbing or heating needs.

Also, instead of a replacement mindset, our plumbers strive to give you the longest service life from your fixtures.  This saves you money and reduces materials in in the long run reduces waste in the landfill. 

Today, we  focus on helping our clients save water as water rate hikes are inevitable due to our regions water shortages by checking water pressure at each service call and providing recommendations for optimal service so you are not wasting water and throwing money down the drain.

We hope that you will give us the opportunity to serve you.
