Local Drain Cleaning Specialists

We had an excellent experience. We had to replace all of our drains, re-line the main sewer line, and replace our main water line on an older house. The owner, Michael, is very knowledgeable, friendly and professional. He does an exceptional job of explaining to clients what the problem is, why it's a problem, and how to solve it an a way that's easy to comprehend. We never felt like we were being taken advantage of or pressured into using him. However, we certainly felt comfortable with him, and the work turned out great. We have continued to use Local Drain Cleaning Specialists and will continue to use them moving forward.

They will save the day! These guys are the Local Drain Cleaning Specialists. For REALS. They're  professional, knowledgeable and hella fast.

The Team at LDCS are my go to plumbers in the area. I use them for both, big projects and emergency services. Recently, I've had Josh come out to an AirBnb I own to unclog a toilet that a guest flushed foreign objects down the septic. Josh took care of my problem quickly & effectively.
I know when I work with the guys/gals at LDCS they do the work right.

So We donate time to are local parkway LITTLE league and we had a closing day ceremony and are toilets backed up and we had about 300 people come out..we came in that morning and seen there was a mess parkway family was running around trying to see if anyone can come out know one called back but these guys came out the same day got down and dirt on short notice and saved us all These guys are AMAZING Nothing but good people and saved are butts..I highly recommend these guys..when ever your in doubt these guys will fix your spout lol na but for real good people and took good care of us..... THANK YOU FROM THE PRKWAY FAMILY

My landscaping drains throughout the house were all plugged up had drain tech come out to try to unplug it. He did not have the proper equipment and referred me to local drain cleaning specialist. They called and they were there on time they use a Hydro jet high-pressure system to try to unplug my drains. On their truck on the side it says if they can't drain it you don't have to pay. They were there for almost 3 hours and could not unplug my drains. My drains were all plugged up with roots rocks and have not been checked in years. They are a great company they stand by what they say I didn't have to pay but I felt guilty. I would recommend these guys anytime for my drains PS I am going to have all my landscaping drains replaced

These guys are great. They came out the same day to perform a free quick and thorough inspection with Felicia. We got advice on stuff we could do ourselves to save money and were presented with a few options and very reasonable quote with an explanation of how the work is better than competitors.

It was surprising to see Tom early morning to a query for clog drain services I had done just a night before on HomeAdvisor. He gave a free estimate and promised to get the job done right. He delivered on his promise and we are happy customers. Kitchen Sink is unclogged and we have 1 year service warranty. I know who to call - if we see the problem again :-)
Thank you.

Came out and fixed our sewage line.  Mike was pleasant, professional and extremely patient.  Responded and arrived within 20 minute.  Definitely recommend him!

We have a major issue that could not be addressed at the time of inspection. Called late morning and they had someone here by the afternoon on the same day. True to advertisement, they did not charge for the inspection, as the issue could not be resolved. They helped us understand the problem and talked us though possible next steps. We did not feel pressured at all. Very helpful. I would use them again.

I am writing this to express my extreme gratitude for the excellent customer service Mr. Michael Rodriguez provided to our dental office. I'd like to compliment him for being quick and knowledgeable. He is extremely pleasant and professional to work with. I strongly, and with no reservation recommend Michael for your needs.

Michael Rodriguez showed up sooner than expected smiling (under his mask).  Friendly, informative and professional right from the start.  

After hearing about my sewer backup, he got right to work told me options and used hydro jet to clear drains and then scoped out all lines with camera to find exact cause of backup.  Even set up a remediation person to assess water damage to walls and under vanity.

Michael and his crew will be back out tomorrow to repair cleanout. Professional, kept me informed the entire time of what was going on, broke problems down into examples I could understand and explained that everything would be detailed and itemized for insurance purposes.  Felt immediate relief for the scheduled work and immense for the long term in getting the problem diagnosed and fixed permanently.

He reassured me of the long term

LDCS showed up within a couple of hours of calling them when no one else could/would. I contacted 3 other plumbers along with LDCS.  Michael showed up wearing a mask and safety protocols were followed.  We have a reoccurring main issue.  All other plumbers that have helped us in the past had indicated that we would probably have to get rid of our amazing October Glory, but Mike took the time and effort to actually find the ROOT of our problem.  He not only cleared our main, he told us and showed us on his camera that the issue is right at the point where our main hits the city's sewer system (They are not aligned and roots are getting in at that point) and that we do not have to dig up our entire yard to fix this.    He let us know exactly what needs to be done, a reasonable quote, and a timeframe of the needed work on the spot.   GREAT SERVICE!  GREAT GUY!  Their number is now saved in my phone. :)

Highly recommend this company! Michael and his colleague came out quickly after my husband's call (on the day after Thanksgiving no less) to evaluate a problem in our landscape drains. They were professional, knowledgeable, and thorough in their evaluation. They saved us from unnecessary costly repairs and provided us a thorough assessment of our problem. Will not hesitate to utilize them in the future!

First time needing some plumbing work done. Called up, sent pictures of the issue, got a quote, Manuel got here to Modesto in an hour after calling and fixed the toilet quick. WOW! Definitely recommend this business.

I had a plumbing issue and searched plumbers on Yelp.   Michael contacted me while on his vacation & actually left his vacation early to help me out.   The plumbing issue turned out to be a very large job.   Michael explained what the problem was in great detail & in terms I could understand.  He was very efficient & worked hard till the job was completed.  I highly recommend this company

I'm late on the review; however, very satisfied customer.  Michael was prompt on his response to fix my plumbing issue. He drove all the way to Fairfield to fix my bath.  Just taking that extra step to drive here was a huge plus (he was recommended to me and I was surprised he actually drove to my house).   Very professional, thorough and explained the process before he started.  I would definitely recommend and call them back for future plumbing problems. It's hard to pick a plumber you can trust, I highly recommend Michael and his team. Thank you so much!!

Michael and his crew always go above and beyond with their work. They are my go to for trenchless plumbing solutions and hydrojetting services. Best prices around and extremely easy to work with.

ABSOLUTELY MIRACULOUS!  Michael showed up right away after my phone call, on a Sunday afternoon.  He explained their billing system clearly, he was masked, he told me the range of options.  I explained that I had tried five different techniques to unclog the toilet.  I left him to it, and, WITHIN MINUTES, he found what was preventing the toilet from working,  HE FOUND THE WALLET WE HAD LOST AND WERE SEARCHING FOR FOR TWO DAYS!  NOT ONLY FOUND IT, BUT, MIRACULOUSLY, BROUGHT IT OUT in fine shape.  We figured the odds of this happening were 100 to 1, but were we happy?  Overjoyed and relieved.  He shared in our joy, made a video of it, and we parted with GREAT JOY on both sides.  I couldn't recommend him and his outfit more highly.  I'd easily give them ten stars on a scale of one to five.  Continued thanks.

I was referred through a friend of a friend for a sink leak and I called and they showed up the same day- which is sometimes unheard of if it's not an emergency.

So to my surprise- Felicia shows up! And not that that matters- but it's so rare and I am totally here for this type of thing because I usually don't see it. So anyways- she comes and checks out my big water issue and is able to pretty quickly determine what the issue is- so she leaves and comes back with two guys (Michael and I don't remember his name- but don't hate me lol) within the hour to fix it.

I was having a constant water flow from my water heater to my patio and then my water bill was also shooting up because the water literally never stopped flowing lol! They switched out the part and even stayed after finishing to make sure the pipe fully stopped spewing out water.

Basically Felicia, Michael & the other worker were amazing, friendly, efficient, reasonable and super easy to work with. They came in fast, got the job done and were even super funny to chat with!

I want to thank them so much for coming same day and fixing the issue I didn't even know I had in addition to the leak!

Definitely will be recommending you all and although I would like to work with them again, I hope I don't have to anytime soon lol!

These guys are amazing. Great response times to my properties. Every time I deal with them they are straight up and to the point. They don't try to sell you anything you don't need and they help educate you during the process. I'd 10/10 recommend to my friends and family.

Amazing team and service! Very friendly and knowledgeable. I had a sewage backup and they arrived immediately to assess the issue and the cost was very reasonable as well. I would highly recommend them to all my friends and family!

Overall had an awesome experience with local drain cleaning. From felicias help with my questions and multiple phone calls, to Michael completing the work and giving advice and suggestions along the way. They made the process seamless and I'd highly recommend their work! Michael and Felicia  were super helpful and accommodating. You can tell they injoy there job. Will definitely be a returning customer for any of our plumbing needs in the future!

I want to sincerely thank Manuel for coming out today on short notice to assist with the repair of a leak caused by Lifescaping Fence Company following their refusal to repair a pipe they broke. Manuel was professional, efficient, and polite.  He resolved the issue expeditiously, and I couldn't be more appreciative.

Mike and Manuel were very polite.  They took off their boots before entering my home, explained multiple options and time frames of different ways I could repair my refrigerator line.  I felt like the decision was completely up to me and they were comfortable with whatever option I wanted to do.

We have some plans in the future for remodeling bathroom and kitchen, and I will definitely be reaching back out to Plumber Mike for other jobs in the future.

Thanks Mike and Manuel.

This is a great company, they are highly knowledgeable and they do not cut corners. They're only interested in doing the job right and they guarantee their work. Also very responsive, if they say they'll call you back they will.

Don't be fooled by the newness of this company. They are a minority woman owned business and are responsive to your requests for a job estimate and complete the job in record time. They are prompt, quick to assess the work, tools and labor required and efficient at completing the task to your satisfaction. No upselling and they make take pride in doing the job right the first time. Felicia, who is also the business owner, discussed what the work order would entail, the length of time, and the cost, securing my authorization to go ahead before doing the job.
I'm quite satisfied with the quality of the work and would not hesitate to use them again for future jobs.

Michael and his team has helped us with our various plumbing and pipe issues. Very professional ,  prompt response , and does a great job in explaining and fixing the issues. We will definitely do business with them again

Really amazing team and service!We had a clog and a toilet leak discovered in our store's only bathroom at 6pm on a Friday. By 7:30 we had two of their team - who really had just been finishing their last job when they got our call - in our store checking out the issue.

They were honest and upfront about what we could be encountering and kept us in the loop of what was happening the whole time. No surprises.

Turns out old pipes are a huge problem. Next morning - Saturday at 7:30am - we had the Michael and his team on the job. They did a massive repair, including jackhammering our floor and replacing part of our nearly 100 year old pipe.

I cannot say enough good things about this small business. They were an amazing team to watch work. extremely professional and courteous while dealing with our shop - that was open for business during part of the repair. They have all the ability and knowledge of a large corporate company but with everything we all love about small business service.

I'd recommend them to anyone.

My guest bathroom toilet had a leak and was not fully connected to the ground.  I called a few plumbers for a quote but with all of the positive reviews and a gut feeling, I decided on Local Drain Cleaning Specialists.  I'm so glad my instincts paid off!

Michael and his assistant (I don't remember his name but he was a sweetheart!) arrived on-time and discovered that my home builder (Lennar!) didn't install my toilet properly.  The pipe was cemented too high in the ground and this was why the toilet didn't connect to the ground and caused the leak when it was flushed.  So gross!  He explained the issue and gave me three quotes (low, medium, and high).  The price hinged on the complexity of the repair.  He also explained that he would do everything to avoid the high, more complex route.  Not only did he keep his promise, he and his assistant also traveled to several different suppliers to make sure that the highest cost was avoided!  I was sooo impressed!!! He also helped me to understand and fix a clog in my kitchen disposal that made water drain onto my countertop.  So not only did they complete the job and keep their promises, they also educated me about my plumbing issues!  These guys are honest, skilled, friendly, hardworking, and clean!  What more can you ask for?

If I ever have plumbing issues in the future, I won't bother to call anyone else!  They will also be the business I refer to friends and family for their plumbing issues!  Trust and respect earned!  I can't be more grateful to you guys!!!

I called around to local plumbers and they all were three days to a week out for someone to come out. I called Local Drain Cleaning Specialists and they came that day! WOW
I had bathrooms and kitchen sinks clogged, Felicia the plumber, yes a women. OMG, that's so cool! She unclogged my sinks in no time they were back up and running! They are very reliable and affordable! I will recommend them to everyone I know! Thank you so much !

They responded immediately. I had a problem w a sump pump that they figured out and resolved. Their communication was excellent. The team was super friendly and capable.

Mike and his team were recommended to me by another plumber, Mike showed up to give me a quote on my sewer line that was being invaded by tree roots. He spent the time explaining to me how he could address my issue and after some thought he came up with a solution!  They worked long hours to get the job done... This is a great group of people ! Not only do they care for their customers, they are hardworking and do a professional job. I will always use them for future plumbing issues!

Great and very professional service.
Whenever my restaurant has a problem, he provides reasonable prices and fast service. He is always reliable and real drain specialist.

I LOVE TERIYAKI-NATOMAS

Michael and his crew came out and fixed a problem with a severely clogged drain.  They used Trench less technology to remove the blockage and installed new piping.  We were in a world of hurt with flooding on our RV parking side of our home.  Very hard working and dedicated to finding a solution to the problem.  Very dependable and reliable.  If ever in the future we have a drain problem we will only call on Mike.

Had a major clog backup and needed to have our line cleared. It was a Saturday going into the evening and figured it was going to be hard to get someone out here let alone for a reasonable price. Well we had someone out here within 30 minutes, cleared the line and cost was very reasonable. I highly recommend Local Drain Cleaning Specialist. Thanks for saving the day!!!!

Extremely pleased with the responsiveness of this company. My sewer backed up on a Saturday afternoon, so I called around. A few other companies couldn't come out for several days, but Local Drain Cleaning Specialists were out within an hour. Michael made sure to explain everything and show me where the problems were (we had some root intrusions) using the scope, hydrojetted the line to fix the problem, and gave some advice on what to do in the long-term. The customer service and friendliness were outstanding. I completely trusted this company to provide the best price and service for the job. I'll be calling them again in the future.

Synopsis: Friendly, fast, knowledgeable service. Give them a call first and if you think you can find more affordable work done, do your research. I'm sure in the end you will choose Local Drain Cleaning Specialists.

Our house has two toilets and both of them decided to stop working at the same time! Frantic, I placed an inquiry on Yelp. Local Drain Cleaning Specialists responded quickly. What set their response apart from the rest was that it was not an automated: Please call our company at XYZ so we may help you; but instead it was a response from a real person stating what they believe may be the issue with the toilets, their flat rate fee, and if I wanted to schedule for a technician which I was able to do through Yelp.

I should preface this epic saga by stating the prior owners of our home tried (and failed) to fix everything in the house themselves. Of course we are only finding out the extent of their idiocracy when their jerry-rigged solutions that they tried to cover up fail.

Felicia and Michael arrived and quickly unclogged our guest bathroom. Our master bathroom on the other hand was a different story. Felicia and Michael found that the toilet was leaking from the bottom because it was not installed properly and the flange needed to be replaced. Not only that, the leaking had caused extensive water damage to the flooring and baseboards. They removed the old toilet and ripped up the old floor. We came up with a game plan that allowed my husband and I to have the time to address the floors before a new toilet was installed.

Once the floors were fixed, we called to have the toilet installed. Felicia found that there was an issue with the pipes! She informed us of what needed to be done and reassured us that they would work with us financially.

Michael and the crew came out early this morning to address the issue. Instead of rushing through a job, they informed us that the boards got wet and we're removed but it was still too wet to add new boards. I'm thankful for this honesty and thoughtfulness instead of trying to rush through a job, put in boards when it's still wet, and then have mold grow under.

I did my due diligence and researched other plumbing companies in my area. I received quotes from them that were hundreds even THOUSANDS of dollars more. They were less personable and more about selling you more services on top of what you're asking for. Im so thankful to Felicia, Michael, and their team for going above and beyond to help us. They really want to work with their customers and our experience so far has been fantastic.

Our toilets were not working, one was clogged and one leaky.  Local Drain was out at our house within a couple hours and provided great customer service. The dispatcher was so responsive on the chat and answered all of our questions within a matter of minutes. Felicia and Michael were patient enough to explain everything they were doing, and most importantly they did a thorough job resolving our issues.  One of our toilets was no longer usable and they were great about providing options and giving us the time and space to create our new bathroom the way we want to.  I'm so glad we chose this company!

The two technicians that came out were really professional. They were generous enough to waive the camera fee $480.00 because I had initially called Roto Rooter to come out and unclog my main drain pipe. Rotor Rooter sent in a camera and found out that my pipes were offset by the county. There's also roots inside their pipes. They quoted me $4400 to get it fixed. They will dig into the ground and replace the old pipes. Well, Local Draining Specialist reached out to me and stated that I should get a second opinion, which I did. After coming out and sending in their camera. They told me to contact the county to come out and check their pipes. They came out and after inspecting their pipes they found out that there's roots growing on their pipes too. So now, the county is going fix for free. Yay! I recommend these guys to everyone because they're honest and I saved $4400.

This company went above & beyond to help me out. Very professional, explained everything in detail that I needed and was very respectful. I live in Carmichael, CA, was on time for the appointment. I had to get the main sewer line from my house out to the street repaired. Honest work and GREAT price, and the job went really fast. I highly recommend this company if you want good, honest, fast & courteous work done.
