Best Sewer Line Repair in Oakland CA

I called Everest Plumbing to replace a sewer line. Tsering came out the next day to look at the property; we had an estimate that evening. 3 days later, the work was completed, the inspection done, and approved by the city. The area was kept clean. I never actually met him, but did everything by e-mail and phone. I would not hesitate to recommend this company. Not only was the work great, but the price was reasonable compared with other estimates we received.

URV did a great job replacing my broken shower handle!! Roman put in extra effort to remove the old cartridge which was badly stuck due to build ups.

Service Star Plumbing responded in minutes and were able to fix our problems at a great rate and in little time. Will definitely be going to this service again if needed in the future!

Abraham was great. He was responsive, professional and easy to deal with which is exactly what I want when I need a plumber. The pricing was also very competitive which felt like the icing on the cake. I would recommend Abraham to anyone.

You call, you make an appointment, they show on time, they charge the going rate for solid craftsmanship.
They historically have worked on big building construction projects, but due to the weak economy now have a service department which brings all that construction experience with them. They are not who you would call for a blocked toilet emergency - that would be roto rooter or rescue rooter (who rip you off when you are most desperate). These guys are for the planned plumbing jobs. You won't be sorry. if they don't get it right the first time and they are at fault, then they do it right with no charge on the return visit.

So I am back to update my review.

After posting our candid review of our experience with Valley Plumbing the owner contacted my husband. We were moving, had a baby, etc. so it took a few weeks for us to get back to him. He called a couple times and was very professional in letting us know he was concerned with our problems and how they responded.

Normally I wouldn't do an update as I think my first reviews are correct BUT this time I am more than happy to update my review.

The owner took the time to listen to our concerns and issues and ask what he could do to make things right. To us there wasn't anything he could do after the fact, we just wanted to voice our experience with his shop.

WELL the next week we get a call from the shop telling us that our part was in!!! Not only did he order the part we were originally trying to get but they didn't bill us for it. WOW, I was impressed as I know it could not have been cheap to do this. They never asked for me to update the review and I feel that they more than deserve a 4 stars for really trying to make things right.

Thanks for really caring about your customers.

I do not recommend Atlas because of their sales tactics.  I contacted them on 10/24 regarding a clogged garage drain.  They refused to provide a quote even though I told them the exact issue, and said they could assume no more than one hour of work.  

They wanted me to leave work, meet the plumber on-site, and only then would they give a proposal, and would want to do the work right then.  It's an aggressive, slimy sales tactic.  They know what they will charge, but won't tell me until I'm already committed and on-site, since they know I'm then likely to say yes.  Very frustrating.

Great group of people who worked very hard all day at a very dirty job.  They cleaned-up at the end of the day every day, very responsive to our needs.  Refinished the surface to look as if nothing had ever happened.

I had a pleasure working with Stanley, he was super professional, came with hi quality equipment and cared to give me a good fair of my options. I called them after I had a bad experience with plumbing ministry where I felt they were unprofessional and didn't know what's going on but still try to get you sign to pay high unnecessary processes.

I called them in the middle of the winter when we discovered our heating system had died in the middle of a cold snap. We had called many HVAC companies and got quotes from the companies who responded. Honrath and Stacey did not give us the lowest quote, but what won me over was there responsiveness. I called on a Thursday morning not expecting to get a response until Monday, but they called me back that day and scheduled an evaluation for the next day and had a quote to me before Monday. The other companies took much longer responding to us and giving us quotes.

The customer service is excellent.  We had a plumbing emergency at 10 pm at night.  Since the hours listed was 24 hr, I called, and to my surprise someone answered.  Communications was very easy whether via phone or text message.  They were super responsive and helped resolve our issue as soon as reasonably possible.  I would use this service again in the future.

Our kitchen faucet had been leaking for awhile. I ordered the replacement faucet, but figured out in a hurry that the install wouldn't be the straight forward project I was anticipating. The mounting nut had rusted and was frozen in place.
I contacted Savior Plumbing to help me out.  They had an available plumber and dispatched him within the hour. Their plumber, Jordan, arrived and got to work. He had to section the nut with a metal cutter to remove it, which was something I wouldn't have been able to tackle.  Once the old faucet was removed, the install of the new faucet proceeded uneventfully.
Jordan is knowledgeable and performed the repair professionally and courteously.
I appreciate Savior Plumbing's prompt response and the service Jordan performed in installing our new faucet.  I highly recommend Savior Plumbing for any plumbing needs.

We had a clogged drain issue that I was worried could have been worse. Jimmy from Olsson came by and was one of the nicest and helpful trade technician I have had the pleasure of helping me. Jimmy showed me what the cause of the issues were, how to resolve them myself if they occur again in the future. I feel bad for the folks who have had a negative experience because I had such a good experience with Olsson and Jimmy. Olsson was the company who gave me a next day appointment where everyone else was a week or so away.

Thank you Jimmy and Olsson.

Rey came to my house quickly after I called him. Our water heater wasn't working and he went into the crawl space and immediately had it working. When I asked him how much I owed, he said no charge. Hard to find that kind of service. I highly recommend him.

Had a good experience with an estimator today. Wait: good experience but two stars?

I've had frustrating exchanges with their phone reps. They use local dispatchers and a call center that appear to operate in parallel or ignorance of one another.

My inquiry was seeking an estimate about heat-pump installation. The estimator showed up at my house without any of the information I had provided to the initial representative I had contacted. They don't give us all the information, was his remark.

In the end, that part was fine because he and I talked through things and I filled him in. But subsequent interactions with their phone reps and schedulers -- surrounding trying to get a tech out to fix a small gas leak discovered by the estimator -- have been frustrating.

This company is well reviewed. The technicians may be skilled; but the surrounding service/support not so much.

Was surprised and impressed that they answered in a Saturday morning and showed up within 1/2 an hour.  Christian figured out our issue quickly, quoted a fair price and was back within 45 minutes to replace our sump pump and also patch some pipes that he's seen were leaking.  Responsive, friendly and professional - will call these guys next time we need plumbers and will ask for Christian.

Daniel and his team have now come out twice to do work on my house in the sunset. This included a repair and the installation of a pressure regulating valve. They are always competent, truthful, diligent and get things done really quickly and with high quality. They also communicate really well and deliver on their commitments. I would highly recommend Chosen Rooter and Plumbing, and will be using them in the future for all my plumbing needs.

I have used Jorge's plumbing several times, from installing sewage sump pumps, rain water sump pumps, installing backstops and correcting past plumbers' shoddy workmanship in general. He's friendly, reliable and always gets the job done right. I highly recommend his services.

It's now 10 days after we first contacted our plumber who installed a hot water heater 3 years ago in our 10-unit condo in Alameda.  Last week, we called AT Weber for help before the Holiday Weekend.  They were not available for us.  One of the officers of the HOA went into their office and were told they would try to get someone over before the end of the day, Friday, before the weekend. He was a no show/no call plumber.  But we also scheduled an appointment for Wednesday morning, telling them specifically what the problem was...an ignition part making a racket.  Our neighbor fiddled with it and got the hot water up and running, for only a short time, but we trusted that AT Weber would be able to resolve our problem.
 There's a reason their ratings are trending lower! Josh showed up Wednesday, fiddled with it and said he'd order a part that would take a day or two.  Someone else came by yesterday, Friday, 9 days after we initially contacted our plumber.  Fiddled with it. An hour or two later, there's no hot water, no replacement part, no calls back from them.  Only someone will get the part and put it in today (yesterday). Well, now it is tomorrow, Saturday, and still no hot water, no part, no one who can be reached.
 They won't be our plumber any more.  Any you might want to think twice before hiring them or buying a service or system from them if you may need them for anything beyond the initial sale.
 Their service has gone downhill and they obviously need a management makeover.

I've had to replace two sewer laterals at two projects in Oakland within the last 5 years. I was lucky enough to get a referral for Morris from our real estate agent on the first project and never looked back. Morris and his team are extremely organized and easy to work with. The price was very reasonable of all the bids we fielded and I can't imagine the work or experience of dealing with Morris and his team of possibly being any better than it was.

On our second project, there were a few complications due to construction. from other contractors. but Morris was able to stay nimble and ensure we. passed the final test with the city once other construction was done.

I look forward to using next Morris and Rooter Solutions on our next project!
