Said fixed the leaking pump but noted that there were some hazardous conditions caused by the way the unit was originally installed. Suggested that I call PG&E for a safety inspection. Did so and they confirmed that there were indeed small gas leaks due to faulty and ancient installations. PG&E did repairs and I am getting proposal for repair of the 90 year old gas lines. Really appreciate Said's thoroughness and honesty. Could not recommend anyone more highly!

Boudreau Plumbing and Heating

Did a great job. Very reposnsive and went the extra mile to make sure the situation was safe when they had to return the next day to complete the repair. The gas line repair was a little tricky, the leak was right where the line passed through the floor- Paul explained what current code would require and added the necessary changes during the repair, making the connection safer and easier to repair in the future. Also fixed a leak they noticed in the water heater supply while they were here.

Rosenthal Plumbing
5.0
I had discovered a leak under my home in crawl space. Tech diagnosed leak within a wall due to a water supply line puncture from a baseboard trim nail. Tech cut hole in wall to expose damaged pipe, and repaired leak. Also, I had a loose shower arm in bath due to the fitting behind the wall was not properly attached to a support board. Tech cut another hole in wall that was behind the shower and installed a board that the shower arm fitting attaches to.

SAN JOSE PLUMBING
5.0
Very well. The plumber was able to fix the pipe without having to open the wall to reach it and he completed all the repairs we needed in under an hour. When he turned on the water again he saw another leak in a coupling near one of his repairs. He spent another 30 minutes repairing this leak for no charge because he felt his working on the pipes had caused the new leak.

The service was great. Timely and efficient. Not only did he make the needed repairs, but he pointed out some other potential problems with our plumbing and gave us quotes to have them fixed. My wife was much happier now that the shower is working properly!

Ortiz Plumbing and Drain Cleaning
5.0
Alfredo contacted me very quickly and I explained our issue. He agreed to come by the same day. He assessed the problem and gave me a detailed explanation of the issue and how to fix it. This included advising me that the repair could be problematic since the pipe was galvanized steel. I appreciated his approach to keep the repair simple and to address any issues as they came up. His estimate was very reasonable and the repair was successful. There was a small leak that started on a separate section which Alfredo came back and fixed as part of the original bid price. He was efficient and responded to all of my questions. That was very much appreciated!

Valley Plumbing Home Center, Inc

On the whole the work was very well done. James was always on time and polite. Very helpful in pointing out areas requiring upgraded materials, etc. Fixed problems well. I was a little disappointed when they charged me for a show-up fee when there were extenuating circumstances which they were already aware of. They fixed problem by waiving this fee. It is a very good sign when a company is willing to make this kind of adjustment if warranted.

Dependable Rooter and Plumbing
5.0
Ariana arrived on time as scheduled by the office and she clearly communicated that they work on a specific repair menu and not hourly. It is a better approach because we want the issue fixed and not keep adding variable items later. She quoted the price (and the visit fees which was pre-specified before I made the appt). Our powder room toilet floor boards were bulging out due to some moisture which we were unable to find. She took clear pictures as she disassembled the toilet and explained the issue and how she was fixing it. She also explained there would be a need to do a future fix for the flange being below our wood floor level. And provided a quote for future reference. She was very professional and ensured everything was left clean in the end. Though they may be a bit pricey, the work is very professional. Will definitely hire again!

Absolutely great company! Nice folks, examined problem, determined they could not fix (it is a tile problem not a plumbing problem) and suggested solutions. The estimate was free - they will certainly get the replacement job on our water heater next year.

Carl was later than promised, and I had to call the office to see when he was coming. Coincidentally, he arrived about five minutes later. I gave him the replacement part I had ordered; he installed it, explained how it fixed the problem, and departed. Another happy customer!

Rayne Plumbing & Sewer Svc Inc
5.0
First call was on 4/26/18. Office staff asked if I wanted estimator to come first; I declined as a leak needs to get fixed regardless of cost. Plumber was super polite, knowledgeable, well-groomed and efficient. I used a different plumbing company a few weeks later for a water heater problem and regretted not simply calling Rayne. When the water heater developed another problem I called Rayne. The plumber Rayne sent for that reeked of cigarettes but otherwise got the job done.

Grant Plumbing
5.0
Scott was very professional over the phone when I first contacted him. I later texted him and we quickly agreed on a time for him to come over (the next day). He arrived exactly on time with two of his employees and was professional and friendly. I showed him where water was leaking into my garage and after me giving consent, he directed his employees to tear into the drywall and find the leak. They found the leak quickly and he determined the cause of the leak (a stress related tear caused by improper installation). They quickly repaired the pipe and Scott had me run water in the upstairs bathroom to test out the repair. The pipe still leaked and they repaired it again in a different way. Scott was very knowledgeable about houses built in Foster City and I appreciated that he gave me some tips on my gas furnace and other general plumbing issues while he was here. My only concern was that he quoted me between $300-$400 and then charged me $400. However, I gave him the benefit of the doubt that the repair had been slightly more work than he had initially expected.

Oddjob Rob arrived reviewed the leak (hot) and quickly determined the fix. Oddjob Rob turned off the water, turned on all water faucets to drain any water in the line, unscrewed the faucet stem replaced the worn washer with a new washer, screwed the faucet stem in place, turned on the water. Tested the leaking faucet by turning it on and off. No leak!!

Plumbing Repairs Are Never Optional

Perhaps no other home system needs more attention than plumbing. You cannot put them off, because your house without a reliable water supply for cleaning, hygiene, and cooking is no longer habitable. Hire a plumber to help you keep up with how things go down.

Plumbing repairs will keep your household humming. 

What Goes Wrong With What Goes Down

Overflowing toilets are a common and messy problem. Whether clogged by adventurous little ones or because the fill valve is broken, an overflowing toilet requires instant action. First, turn off the water at the wall shut-off valve. Then, call a plumber for plumbing repairs. 

Other typical household issues:

  • Dripping faucet
  • Slow-draining sink
  • Broken water heater
  • Clogged service connection (sewer pipe to street)
  • Running toilet
  • Clogged sink or tub drain
  • Balky garbage disposal

In the plumbing trade, waste water leaving your home falls into two categories:

  1. Greywater — Water from your kitchen sink, bathroom sink, bathtub, or laundry room (all waste water except toilet waste)
  2. Blackwater — Water leaving the toilet, containing urine and fecal matter 

While greywater is often polluted with chemicals, food residue, it is not usually unsafe for health. Water leaving your home's toilets is potentially dangerous, so leave plumbing repairs involving blackwater to professionals. 

Common Plumbing Parts That Fail

Simply from constant use, toilet parts fail often. The fill valve, float ball, flapper, chain and handle arm are constantly moving. Expect to replace these several times in the life of a typical household toilet. 

Sink faucet handles, valves, supply tubes, pop-up stopper and the spray and hose assembly in kitchen sinks fail frequently, though their drains prompt more calls for plumbing repairs than the moving parts. 

Water heaters are prone to failure after around eight years. Angie's List recommends replacement at 10 years. Water heaters typically involve expensive plumbing repairs. 

How Much Does Plumbing Repair Near You Cost?

Unlike some home repair services, plumbing covers a lot of different fixtures and problems:

  • Water heater repair: $553
  • Clogged drain: $213
  • Well pump repair: $826
  • Toilet repair: $216
  • Repair a drain line: $696
  • Repair sewer main (or service connection): $2,567
