Best Pipe Repair in San Jose CA

Didn't expect 340 out of 340 5-star reviews to be wrong. And they weren't. I am joining as #341 :-). Javarre and Sam ahead of promised time at my behest and got the job done with no-nonsense. Before they came, they told me how to get temporary relief - to avoid flooding inside. They explained the issue clearly and advised on how to take care. Their rates were also very reasonable. I would have preferred to pay with credit card but they wanted a check. The only minor irritant.

I would recommend them highly. Thanks Javarre and Sam!!

(The last review was for a job approx 1 month ago)

A few days ago, I had a problem with water leaking from the fridge so I called to see if they could come out. Ray came out ASAP. Thanks so much for coming out so quick and for being so nice!!!
Once again I highly recommend EJ!!

I had a problem with my water heater. After speaking with Trieu on the phone, he came over the next day to give me estimates for my choices for repair. He was very friendly and informative, and there was no pressure. The prices he quoted seems reasonable.

Mike was able to troubleshoot our bathroom sink quickly and efficiently. He had detected not just one, but two leaks and promptly remedied the situation for us. He also checked the water pressure. He was on time, communicative and respectful. We would definitely reach out to him in the future for any other plumbing issues.

Khoa was really amazing - we had a plumbing emergency on a Sunday morning and he came over within the hour and was incredibly honest and professional. He fixed the issue very quickly and gave his professional opinion on updates we need to make to help avoid this issue in the future (without any pressure). We felt that we were in extremely good hands, and are really appreciative for him! I would not hesitate to call him for any plumbing issue we may face in the future.

My wife and I were looking to re-pipe our whole house. After contacting numerous contractors, we selected Local Rooter & Plumbing. When Duy visited our house, it was like a good friend was informing us on what work needed to be done. Duy provided us with a very fair estimate and the length of completion was supposed to take 3-4 days.

Duy and his team are very professional and worked very fast to get the job done right. I was glad that at the end of the day, his team properly cleaned up and allowed us always one restroom to use so we can get ready for work the next day.

After the job was complete, Duy inspected the work that his crew did. He even inspected the brand new 50 gallon hot water heater that they installed. Thanks again for that Duy.

Duy is very easy to communicate and get a hold of. Anytime I had any questions, he was always there to answer my questions.

A couple days after the job was complete, I heard a strange sound after flushing our upstairs middle restroom. I contacted Duy and he dispatched 2 of his guys to check out the problem. After flushing the toilet, they were able to easily diagnose the issue. The copper pipes wasn't the problem, it was a old plastic piece in our toilets reservoir. Hoang replaced the piece in a matter of minutes. After flushing the toilet, we no longer heard that strange sound. Thanks again Hoang for quickly identifying the issue and fixing it.

Local Rooter & Plumbing will now be my go to plumber. I will be recommending them to all of my friends and family. Duy and his team are very easy to work with and know what they are doing. If you are in the market for repiping your whole house or need a plumber, I highly vouch for Duy and his team from Local Rooter & Plumbing.

Todd is awesome! My shower drain clogged. Todd responded very quickly with a fair quote. He came to my house in half an hour on the same day and finished the job another 20 minutes! Definitely recommend to others who need plumbing help.

Marco responded almost immediately to my request for a quote. He came out the next day. He was efficient, clean, responsive and respectful. He explained the problem, what he would do to fix it and the costs before he started. When the project became bigger than anticipated, he also related that to us and explained the costs. Really good experience, thank you Marco!!

My second time using Joe. Excellent job. We had problems with 1) mismatched PVC tubing under the sink that was leaking 2) hot water not flowing in shower due to faulty cartridge.  I appreciate Joe was able to give me some advice on changing my shower setup which I liked a lot more now.  Charged me fairly since I had some parts on hand. Will recommend to others!

I spent a good deal of time in getting estimates from Plumbing Companies to do some work at my house.
I must admit that I was shocked at the amount of the estimates, but found that most of the Plumbing Companies were close in their estimates.
Part of this search was also checking that the plumbing companies had a plumbing license from the California's Contractors State License Board (CSLB). cslb.ca.gov.
Some Companies list this info on their website, but if not, you can search by their name.
In fact one company didn't respond when I asked for the CSLB License Number.
A few companies had complaints that were investigated by the CSLB for illegal procedures, such as conspiracy: Two or more persons conspire to commit any crime, requiring payment prior to work being done, contracting without a license, etc.
I found the United Plumbing was licensed by the CSLB (License # 942399) and had no history of complaints.
They also had a very informative website and they provide an Email to obtain an estimate.
I received an immediate response on a Sunday and was asked to provide pictures.
United Plumbing came up with a more reasonable estimate, which also included the drywall repair.
Throughout this process Joe and Oscar continued to communicate via Email.
Their Plumber Technician, Alexandr K also communicated via Text when he was going to arrive the next day and when he was on his way to start the work.
His vehicle was clean and organized, and he had two tool bags that were also organized so he could get right to work.
Great first impression.
Alexandr was definitely an experience plumber as I watched him cut, ream out the cut pieces (if you don't ream or deburr a cut pipe the water turbulence can wear a hole in the pipe or fitting) and sandpaper the pipe and fittings. He also secured the laundry box so it didn't move which allowed the plastic faceplate to snap on properly.
He also did an awesome job in dry walling around the two existing electrical receptacles while covering up the wall opening. This included shaving the edges of the drywall (for a clean seam for mudding) and using pieces of plywood behind the drywall to secure it in place.
Overall an Excellent result and Awesome work.
In my neighborhood we share our experience with good Contractors and I just sent a text to my neighbor who was getting plumbing estimates.
Unfortunately, most sites only give the option of a 5 for good work.
As a Retired Building Inspector I would give the entire process from beginning to end a 10+.

They responded very quickly and i was the one who delayed it a bit, but when they sent the technician home (Hugo?) he came in and did a very efficient job, in chaning the leaking garden faucet that need to sawed off and have a new joint installed with the faucet. He also fixed the leaking flush, but did give me a price for the overall replacement.

In summary, job well done and I now hope that it lasts :-)

Terrific work...  Responded quickly to yelp request.  Provided an accurate estimate over the phone to set up a new line from the water source to my refrigerator ice machine.  (I preferred running a new line than moving my built in.)  I also preferred to have a shutoff valve to the frig under the frig...not under the house.  He accommodated my request and set up the fix exactly as I requested even as it caused a trip to the hardware store for a different line and valve.  Very much appreciated!

While under the house he discovered my island sink drain pipe had a leak (new problem).  He FaceTimed me from under the house to show me the active leak...very much appreciated as it saved me a crawl under the house. nice!!

and also the shut off faucet to the house didn't work (known issue.)  He replaced the defective valve and pipe with new quarter turn valve and copper pipe.

Khoung fixed all three, effectively, efficiently and at a fair price.

I would definitely call Khuong for my next plumbing project.

Eddie was straightforward (and honest, as his business name advertises!)  He gave me a very reasonable bid on the trenchless replacement of a sewer lateral that runs under my driveway and coordinated with Henry Concrete when I opted to replace rather than patch up my driveway.   Was particularly happy with his frequent communication.    As always in a project like this, there was a glitch or two, but was impressed that Eddie made sure they were handled swiftly.   He is going to be who I call first for any plumbing issues in the future.

Our neighbor downstairs was complaining that water was leaking to his garage while we were using the shower upstairs. It's a tricky issue, as we did not see any leak in our bathroom, but we thought something was wrong, maybe the pipes burst inside the wall ?! We called around couple places, and Right Plumbing was the most responsive and came with the most reasonable quote to investigate into the problem.

Ed first came and had to cut open a small area of the garage ceiling of our neighbor, and confirmed the shower in our upstairs unit was causing the leak. As we did not see any leak in the bathroom, he suggested ways to fix the problem by cutting open the wall behind the bathroom so he could see the pipes and fix the problem from the back. This was before the Christmas holidays, and we told Ed we would call him back in the New Year to fix the problem as we would be away for the holidays.

When we contacted Ed in the New Year, he remembered us and the exact issue, and we were able to set up an appointment the very next day. He did cut open a hole in the wall from the back of the shower, which is actually the wall inside the closet in the bedroom. But the problem was trickier than we thought. The pipes were in good condition and showed no leak, and Ed patiently traced the source and finally figured out there are multiple areas of the leak, from the shower spout and the shower head, as well as the shower wall where the caulking had worn off. He then went to Home Depot to get the new parts, and also re-do the caulking around the tub, and confirmed there's no more leak. All these took the entire afternoon, but Ed still charged us the initial estimate despite the problem being more complicated than initially thought, and he also had to buy additional parts.

And he asked us to wait till the caulking dry out the next day before using the shower, and to double check for leaks before asking him to return to patch the wall. And thankfully we don't see any more leaks, but there are some water dripping from the spout when we used the shower head. Ed came with the tools and materials to patch up the wall, he kept saying he's only an expert in plumbing but not the wall repair, but we think he did an excellent job. As this is the wall inside the closet, we did not bother to re-paint it. Ed also fixed the dripping from the spout problem for us.

We will definitely be using Ed for any future plumbing needs, hard to find anyone who's so friendly as well as thorough in the work.

Very happy with All Go Plumbing. Replaced sewer line from my house to the city line. Old clay pipes, in 60 year old house, clogged with roots, caused persistent drainage problems. Re-piped with PVC. All inspected by city. Lots of digging. Cleaned up great. Very responsive, great communication, finished quickly, nice, smart guys. Very happy to have had the professional work done. Recommend and will contract again for next job.

very good work with really great price
thanks  to khan.

Edward and Dave responded quickly to my phone call. They explained the work that needed to be done to my sewer line and gave a reasonable quote.

Even more important, they were honest and conscientious.

They told me when they found that certain work *didn't* need to be done. They also came back to check something that occurred to them *after* they finished the job.

We had a decidedly mixed experience with Water Quality Plumbing -- but all's well tha ends well.

The bad: We hired Water Quality to fix a problem with our shower diverter.  While attemptng to remove the part that required replacement, the plumber broke the part.  As a result, he had to cut through our tile to get at the part and cover the hole with an ugly metal pipe.  Following the repair, our water began running rusty throughout our upstairs.

The good: Water Quality worked with us to petition the HOA to authorize a copper repiping to deal with the bad pipes and rust issues.

The bad: Following the repipe, we still had rust coming out of our tub faucet.

The good: Water Quality sent guys out twice and eventually fixed the problem (for no extra charge).

The bad: In the course of the repiping, our stopper assembly in one of our bathroom sinks was jarred loose.  Because of rust in the assembly, it could not be re-assembled.

The good: Water Quality installed a new stopper assembly at no additional charge.

The bad: The drywall texture patching following our repipe was absolutely terrible.

The good: Water Quality sent someone out to examine it, agreed it was unsatisfactory, and arranged for it to be redone within the week (at no additional charge).  The texture now looks great.

Bottom line: We had quite a few problems with Water Quality's work over the past few months, which at times was frustrating.  However, I was consistently impressed by Marty's (the owner) willingness to acknowledge when mistakes were made, and to do whatever it took to make it right.  In the end, everything is back to shape, and we are pleased -- it just took a little longer than we had anticipated.    Taking pride in one's work and a willingness to go the extra mile for customer satisfaction is a rarity these days -- Water Quality is an exception.

Hi there. Excellent experience. Responded quickly to my initial request. Came to my house on a Saturday. Polite, respectful and neat. He solved the problem, and his fee was reasonable. I would highly recommend him.

Very efficient work! timely help !
