The owner Rob called and we talked about the missteps that happened and how to make things right going forward. I'm happy for the effort. Thanks and Happy New Year!

I used Good Guy last year Oct. 2021 and my clogged was cleared very nicely by JJ. However, they have no record of this visit and apparently do not know who JJ is. But having had success with the one call after another plumber failed to clear the clog in the sink line last year, I had them come this year when the sink stopped draining again. Unfortunately, I had to leave and they were not able to get the line cleared and the sink remained clogged when they left. It turns out that my reverse osmosis unit had caused lime buildup inside the pipe which is why the regular drain cleaners were not working nor was the snake, their's or mine. I'm not sure the pressure hose would have worked any better to remove the lime. So I finally got a gallon of vinegar and poured that down the drain and used my own snake in the pipe to move the vinegar down the water column then I took the snake out. The drain started to work a little but then stopped up again. So I put my 25' snake in again and hit a hard spot. I hit on it using the snake as a plunger and when it broke thru the water FINALLY drained properly. I now have a clear drain. I could have saved myself the $200 for poor service if I had figured out the lime thing a lot sooner. I will chock this up to a $200 lesson what only needed a gallon jug of vinegar at $3.30.

I cannot speak highly enough about American Plumb Method and Mike!  My mom had an emergency plumbing request due to a pipe breaking. Mike was able to come out within an hour of me calling. He was efficient with finding the problem and corrected it quickly. The total cost was an overall great value, the work done superb and overall a great experience considering the nature of the problem.

Henry is the best. He's reliable and always does great  work. His prices are honest and fair. We always add tip bc we feel it should be more! He's helped up out with so many emergencies! And just a good guy!

VJ's is great.  VJ and Kesh and their employees are wonderful. Pleasant, respectful.  I had a water heater that was leaking and they came out the same day to look at it and then came the next day to fix it/install a new one.  I totally trust them and will call them again.

Conner was amazing! They were extremely quick to respond and provided great service at a great value. If you are looking for a plumber and don't request Conner or Kevin, you are doing it wrong.

Doing a bathroom remodel (weekend DIY warriors), we ran into some plumbing issues when we opened the walls due to the poor quality of the work that was done when the house was built. We also wanted to install a new shower valve and fix the copper routing mess.

After calling 4-5 of the recommended plumbers on Yelp, most of them were too busy to come out or return calls. Barcena called back the same day (on a Sunday!) as we were in a jam and could not move forward with tiling and showed up right away a couple days later. Steve and Tyler came to the house and after looking at it, Steve knew right away what needed to be done. He did an awesome job re-routing the copper lines and installing the new shower valve. He was  very nice, friendly and professional and you can see that he takes pride in his work. We also bugged him with a bunch of questions and he gave us a lot of great advice, regarding our water heater and other plumbing questions. The service was fast, professional and very competitive price wise. Will definitely recommend Barcena Plumbing and will use them in the future.

I used SJ Plumbing to install a new water heater in my Mission Viejo condo.  Working with their office was very easy and they were very accommodating while scheduling the service.  I really appreciated receiving a text message letting me know when they were in-route and they have a super easy (and secured) online payment option.  They were very professional and will use SJ Plumbing again.

Teo is a gem. He is honest, knowledgeable and cares about his customers (the exact opposite of a couple of other plumbers I have used in the past year, whom I found on Yelp) . He came to fix a clogged kitchen drain 2 weeks ago and cleared it. But we had an issue again last week and he came immediately and spent over an hour clearing the drain and fixed the problem and did not charge for the second visit. He really cared about fixing the problem and he explained everything he did. I will always use him for any plumbing or electrical issue I have. I am planning to use him in the next couple of weeks to do some painting/drywall and electrical work. I strongly recommend him and it is very rare to find a handyman like him.

Mike did a plumbing job next door, to the joining condo,  and put the tools through our drywall into our dining room. He admits to doing it but will not fix my drywall as he said he would in the beginning. He has insurance to cover excess damage he causes. I'm still not finished with him yet. He hung up on me.

Fast and thorough service. Also very honest, which I truly appreciate because I've unfortunately been subjected to various attempts at deception, motivated by dishonest or unscrupulous individuals. In fact, Active Rooter was the FOURTH plumbing company I called out to assist with a sewer smell  in my house and the only company to suggest a nuanced approach, taking small, modest, cost-effective steps to tackle the root of the issue, as opposed to going big all at once, which one company did suggest in their recommendation to tear down an entire wall. If the problem can be solved in a smaller way, why not start small- the way a doctor might diagnose an illness through exclusion, these guys did the same, attempting to address the issue by resetting the toilet with a new wax ring. I felt I was being treated as a friend or sister, and never doubted that I was in good hands. I can breathe again!! Thank you, Active Rooter!!

Warren White (aka My Plumbing Doctor) resolved a bathtub clog issue that 4 other plumbers couldn't fix over a period of 10 months. He's super kind, actually cares, and has an authentic vested interest in resolving your issue. Unlike others I've dealt with, he's not the type to leave you hanging and rush off to the next appointment. Above all, he's a problem solver -- constantly thinking of the next solution till the issue is resolved. In short, he takes the time and gets the job done. Will only ever hire Warren for our plumbing needs moving forward.

These guys are SO GREAT. Our kitchen sink backed up, so I looked on Yelp and found Rave. Juan and Chris got here quicker than I expected, fixed the hell out of our 100-year-old pipes under the sink, replacing what needed it. They were super friendly and helpful, not just to us but to each other as well. You can tell a lot about someone by how they treat others, and these guys worked great together. The whole experience with the sink was so painless that we even had them take a look at another job we were putting off when they finished the sink. And they solved that problem too! Great prices, service, and people. Glad I found them! They can come over any time.

Eric is a good, honest guy, who knows his plumbing, and has a good crew. They respond very quickly, even off hours, and they get the work done quickly as well. Eric was also good enough to throw in a shower-head replacement for free! If that wasn't reason enough to use these guys, here's one more: he has good prices as well! Thank you, Eric, for being a pleasure to work with.

Jorge was prompt and so friendly and did the job in record time. We highly recommend Tony's Plumbing and would definitely call them again!

Cody was on time, easy to work with, and didn't try to make a larger job of an easy fix. He walked me through the issue and gave me tips on how to adjust things on my own moving forward. I trust him and will use him moving forward. Great experience!

We used these guys this week for the third time and are still so impressed with not only their knowledge, but their honesty. We had them hydro jet our main sewer line, which we weren't too sure how much it would cost. They explained everything as they went, showed us what was going on and ended up charging us less than they originally told us it might cost. Whether you need something as simple as a clogged toilet taken care of or something more complicated, you can trust these guys to do a great job and to be honest with you!
