Our downstairs bathroom started to get mold on the ceiling.  To make a long story short, the upstairs bathroom shower pan was leaking.

After the mold remediation team had finished and seemed to narrow down the problem to either a drain issue or shower pan issue for the upstairs bathroom, my wife and I contacted approximately 10 general contractors and shower installation companies using various sources (including Yelp, Google Reviews, word of mouth recommendations, internet searches, etc) to provide their recommendations/proposals for our shower and bathroom.

During the processing of obtaining contractor quotes, we were not comfortable with most of the contractors for various reasons including high sales pitch tactics, lack of detailed explanation relating to waterproofing techniques that will be used during construction, extremely high prices, etc.  We eventually narrowed down the list of contractors to two (including Ixtapa).  However, after further comparison of both companies, we ended up choosing Ixtapa partially due to their quote being more inclusive of everything we wanted done (drywall repair, painting, among other items), their flexibility in recommendations that considered our budget, and most importantly, Ixtapa's clear explanation of their waterproofing techniques in which the utmost care would be taken during their multilayered waterproofing method to minimize any chances of the new tile shower leaking in the future.  Other companies were vague in mentioning only hot mopping as an explanation.  We just felt Ixtapa was the complete package when considering fair price, knowledge, customer reviews showing high quality craftsmanship, communication, etc.  Alex was a very good communicator and listener when we shared our concerns/ideas.  Alex was excellent at balancing our concerns/ideas with his expert advice/recommendations (this skill set Ixtapa apart from the rest of the other construction companies we talked to).

Jay, Alex's business partner, is the construction guru.  Jay is very personable and has high expectations of quality that meet not only his high expectations, but also the customer's.  Although Ixtapa has some workers in addition to Jay, Jay does the detailed design, measurements, and most of the detailed construction.

I liked how Alex made clear what materials Ixtapa provides (rough materials, etc) and explains in detail what materials the customer provides (tile, fixtures, etc).  Alex even provided us a shopping list of items to purchase, quantities of each item, etc.  This made it easier for us.  When it came to choosing a new vanity, Alex recommended a few places for us to look at vanity options.  We settled on a place and we were able to purchase the vanity with Ixtapa's contractor's discount to save some money.  When I was stressed about some issues with vanity options while my wife was out of town on business, Alex took time out of his busy schedule to meet me at the store to help me through my struggles.  With the assistance of my wife by phone, and Alex's help, we were able to make a decision that worked out very well (thank you Alex!).

Ixtapa showed flexibility when we requested changes to the scope of work related to the niche, additional recessed lights, installing the additional exhaust fans in our other bathrooms, among some other changes.  Ixtapa was able to provide a custom glass shower per our requested specifications of partially obscured (middle 50% obscured, the top 25% and bottom 25% clear glass).

Jay and his crew did excellent work.  As other reviewers have stated, Jay is a master craftsman.  Jay and his Ixtapa crew handled everything from the demo, plumbing (installation of new shower drain with weep holes, etc), electrical (exhaust fan, led lights, gfci, etc), shower framing, multilayered waterproofing of shower, tile installation/grouting (shower, bathroom floor), installation of vanity & recessed medicine cabinet/mirror, installation of fixtures, drywall/trim/texture/paint, etc.  The only items/services subcontracted out by Ixtapa to different companies were the hot mopping of shower pan and the manufacturing/installation of the custom glass shower door.

A couple of small/minor issues after completion of the bathroom project were taken care of by Ixtapa.  The end result is fabulous!

We very much look forward to working with Ixtapa in the future with another project or potentially more than one project.

Thank you Alex and Jay!!!

Overall great experience with Kristopher and KNC Plumbing.  I had a minor issue with a detached vent for my water heater.  I reached out to a few plumbers via Yelp and KNC was very responsive and available to come out the next day.  I was provided some guidelines on what the expected cost might be, which I appreciated as most others who responded did not provide that immediately upfront.  Kristopher came out as scheduled, confirmed it would be a relatively easy fix, and was very personable, kindly answering my questions and taking the time to explain things to my satisfaction.  I wouldn't hesitate to use this service again in the future.

Called and spoke with Patrick. He hooked me up in a minute.  Super cool and put in a top quality water heater for me.  Keeping his digits for sure

Had a leak somewhere in my main gas line from the front of the house to the meter by the curb. Luis was quick to respond and very communicative. He explained the whole process very well and was the only one who was willing to check the line piece by piece instead of just wanting to replace the whole line. He is very professional and polite. His work ethic was very good and detailed.  After he replaced the main line, he tested the system and another minor leak under the house which he fixed without changing the original estimate. He is very fair. I would recommend him and contact him for any future plumbing needs.  Thank you Luis!

Really great experience with these guys! We had a tree root growing in our sewer line and need to replace about 10 ft of pipe. They came to inspect the issue, gave us a great price, were willing to match any other estimates, and were overall super polite, respectful, punctual, and did the job quickly and effectively. Will definitely make them our go to plumber if we run into any other future issues!

My kitchen sink and piping was not working properly , I got a referral through a friend to contact Steven , I was able to get a response back real quick / same day service and great pricing ! I highly recommend if anyone needs their plumping fix properly and efficiently definitely go with Jetline Plumbing .

We knew we had a problem with the condensation coming from our A/C. It had backed up and spilled into 2 rooms in our home. Frank came out within a few hours of my call and discovered that the coils were completely covered with dog hair!  (warning to owners of large, long haired dogs with undercoats that shed) He got in there and cleaned it all out (easily enough hair to make another dog) for a reasonable fee. We found Frank to have a good sense of customer service as well as being very pleasant and knowledgeable.  We will definitely call them again if we have further issues.

I would definitely recommend Jesse to whoever needs plumbings services! He is responsive, showed up on time, did a great job to solve the issue and helped to clean up the site. I have been having leaking issues with the old copper pipes in my front yard. It's the time I have to repipe the main water supply line from city meter to my house. Jesse used type L copper pipe (thicker type) and dug at least 12 inch deep to repipe my main water supply. He also hydro drilled the pipe to go through my concrete driveway without breaking it! His did a great job in compliance with my city code; the inspector came and signed off my permit right the way. I also want to mention that Jesse's estimate is very affordable, comparing to some crazy estimates I have received. Talk to Jesse! He will help you to fix your pipe! I can't recommend him enough!

Very good experience with Graham Plumbing.
Kyle came out to troubleshoot a leaking toilet.
He found the problem right away . He was timely, courteous and efficient. The original response time from the owner was also very quick. Will definitely use their services again.

Mike was simply wonderful. We have only one bathroom, and have a small child so we needed the problem solved quickly. He arrived promptly late night and on a Sunday. The toilet and shower were backed up. He worked the problem and diplomatically explained what we had done to clog it and made suggestions for the future. His price was fair if not outright low with no extra charge for a late Sunday night. He was also very clean. I'd never hesitate to recommend Mile! Thanks Mike.

We have a big ficus tree in our front yard and called a few rooter companies, one our neighbor happened to have over and another the prior owner had used to put lining in the sewer line.  

Long story short, after going with my gut, and not hiring Hero Rooter or Rapid Plumbing, I called Harry's based on Yelp reviews.  It turns out, Hero Rooter said we needed 20-30 feet of lining when we did not (Harry's plumbing had exact measurements and a sensor that could tell them exactly where the lining ended), and we didn't need hydrojetting.  They used a snake and blades to cut the root ball and everything is fine.

I called Harry's because Yelpers said they were honest.  I can vouch for that.  I think the guys were named Jarrod and Brandon, both highly recommended.  We would hire them again in a second for all of our plumbing and sewage needs.  

I definitely do my homework, but something told me that the other companies weren't people I could fully trust.  I definitely trust Harry's.

Fast response....professional service at an affordable price....I would definitely use them again! 24 hour service and local to Pico Rivera, Downey, Montebello, Whittier.....

Our experiences with Belmont Plumbing have been wonderful! Usually when you have plumbing or other home repairs it's stressful and expensive, especially when you have a 97 year old home. Our first experience was last summer when one of our visitors stopped up our toilet. Matt and Dan came out and were so professional, knowledgeable  and efficient. We felt that the charges were very fair as well. Yesterday our kitchen sink was stopped up and backing into the bathroom sink. We called and they came right out. They were so helpful & friendly and even though it was a difficult job and took a long time, the charge was less than we expected. I know now not to put artichokes, banana peels and eggshells in the garbage disposal. I appreciate working with an honest local family business and highly recommend them for any plumbing work you may have.

Very responsive and helped to diagnose over the phone. Upon arriving, some troubleshooting was done and was ultimately solved. Will definitely contact for serviced needed in the future.

Terrible service. I called them days in advance to have some inspect and repair. The technician was just trying to sell us a new unit over $30K or rebuild the entire machine. The funny part is that the technician didn't even fully inspect or locate the issue at hand. No attempt to work with the customer or to see if they can repair. Just sell sell sell. I do not recommend this company

We had an issue with a leak in our gas fireplace and calling The Leak Locator was the right move! Cory checked everything out, replaced a small valve, cleaned out the fireplace, and it's working great! He also checked our outdoor grille connection and verified that it was good as well. We now have peace of mind from having an expert check it all out. We absolutely recommend The Leak Locator & it's great how they are able to take care of plumbing issues also.

Have used them before, but they're pretty flakey...guy on the phone says one thing when making an appointment, but (if and when) the plumber shows up, they tell me something else...then, they have to call thr office...then the plumber tells me the guy on tge phone never said 'that' when I called the day or two before. Plumber takes off, without doing the repair, telling me someone will call me from the office...which they never do. Meanwhile, I have lost time and have to start all over again with a new plumber. The newer plumber shows up (on time,  as scheduled), gives an estimate and does a complete repair in less than an hour, and at a reasonable rate. Problem solved. Based on my past experience with Daniel's (no shows, no calls, no follow up), I should have jyst gone with my gut and NOTcalled them first or given them another chance....I suggest others do the same unless you like unnecessary aggravation.

The unit I am renting had a giant leak in the kitchen ceiling from the upstairs shower.  The entire shower unit, old pipes, portion of the kitchen ceiling and kitchen flooring needed to be replaced.  The employees from Gorsuch took care of everything.  The shower and flooring came out beautifully.  My roommates and I dealt with Brent the most.  He was always professional and very personable.  He was always in contact to let us know when he would be arriving and kept us up to date.  Eric was also very friendly and professional.  Those guys worked their tails off, in the heat, in order to get the job completed.  Plus, they always cleaned up after themselves even if they were returning the next day.  Matthew was also a pleasure to deal with.  He would pop in to check on the job and always showed care and concern.  Needless to say, I am happy that my landlord chose Gorsuch as our go to plumbing company!
