Mr Rooter Oakland is great. They have great communication, and they’re very professional. They work fast and make sure that you’re happy when they’re done. I had several plumbing projects I needed for a remodel, and they got it all done in one day. I highly recommend this company.

Shayea helped us snake out slow drain and also re do some plumbing. He was a fantastic person to work with and we’d recommend his services to anyone.
After I submitted the online form I got a call back almost immediately. H-Uriel, the technician, was knowledgable and very helpful. The problem was resolved efficiently. Thank you!

After spending two days trying to get a different plumber out for a clog in our main sewer line, they finally came, told me they couldn’t help me that day, scheduled for the next day, and quoted me just over $300.
I could not live another day without toilets and sinks (with sewage backing up into my shower), so I called Mr. Rooter. Within 40 minutes, Alex was at my house. He was professional, thorough and conscientious. I could not believe how careful he was with everything in our home. It was like a night and day difference from the previous plumbing company. Alex took the time to explain in detail what was wrong, every step he was completing, and stayed for hours when the proposed solution didn’t immediately work. Whereas the other plumber clearly wanted to get home in time for dinner, Alex understood our situation and made sure to stay until the problem was solved. Yes, the cost was much higher than the other plumber quoted (in total, about $800). But I shudder to think the corners the other plumber would have cut, considering how unprofessional they were and how little they seemed to care. Alex’s hard work and kind demeanor made the high price tag sting a bit less. He is a gem!

I should give 5 stars bc the tech was great! Fast, professional and on time. The fix seemed pretty simple but the price was pretty high so took one star away for that.
i am extremely happy with the service provided by mr. rooter... we had a serious issue with our sewer drain backing up, and mr. rooter came to the rescue! they explained their pricing well, didn't try to up-sell us on services and performed the work quickly and on budget. their customer service and quality of work done is top notch, and i couldn't recommend them more.
We had a 140 foot gas line that needed quick replacement, including concrete trenching. After a few quotes I decided to work with Spencer (the owner) and very glad I did. His team did the job well, quickly and professionally, and was easy to communicate with especially dealing with the city and PGE to reactivate serivice. There was even a snag on a Sunday night, and Spencer came out personally to repair it so get the heating working again. Highly recommended!

None of the water in my bathroom would drain. I needed a plumber fast. I tried Mr. Rooter and they said they could be there within an hour. He arrived quickly and within minutes, the plumber had identified the problem in the line outdoors and set to work fixing it. Great communication, friendly professional demeanor and getting the job done right (and neatly) have earned Mr. Rooter place on my preferred service providers list.

I felt the service was excellent and my professional Plummer knew his trade and the company. He was courteous, wore his mask at all times(outside & inside) and answered all my questions. He told me my immediate needs and what I could do in the future to improve my sewer system. He gave me my estimate after he found out what had to be done and then he let me decided on what level of care I wanted and could afford. He finished his job in record time, I signed, paid and he left me a refrigerator magnet, so I can call in April for further work. All in all, I would recommend your business to my friends. Give my service guy a raise!!!!!
Thank you,

I will NOT use another company unless Mr. Rooter is not available. I will fully admit you may be able to find a plumber who will do the work or quote a smaller number but you will not have the faith of knowing the work is quality work, and what the costs will not inflate. I like that Mr. Rooter gives you a flat cost for the job not a vague hourly estimate. I'd rather pay for good workmanship, good customer service and known work order than pay less and worry that the cost may inflate. I basically will pay a little extra to not have to worry and it is WELL worth it. I have never felt ripped off or questioned their work. AND I have used them at least 5 times on several different properties. You pay for what you get.

Overall, I found the Mister Rooter team and organization extremely effective and professional. They really stood out. Their phone dispatch center is courteous, flexible with scheduling, knowledgeable about what it takes to complete plumbing installation and repair. The plumbers (Alejandro and Alfredo) not only know their craft but provide excellent customer service. They explain the situation, consider different options and discuss with homeowner, proactively manage expectations related to timing, provide updates while the work is in progress and write a summary report with photos at the end.

Mr. Rooter (Oakland) plumbing provided excellent service on two occasions. First, Spencer, the owner of this franchise, responded within hours to my backed up sewer lateral. He informed me that Albany City fixes this for free. He personally knew the City person responsible and he called on my behalf to order the repair. The City workers arrived the next day and fixed the problem for free! On another occasion, our garbage disposal failed. I got Spencer on the phone and he suggested an appropriate brand and model to replace it. I also asked for a new kitchen faucet, and he immediately recommended a faucet that we have loved. The plumber who arrived to replace our garbage disposal and faucet, named Alex, could not have been better. He was punctual, thoughtful, well informed, friendly and fast. He was thoroughly professional, and the work he did was excellent. I will definitely be calling Mr. Rooter of Oakland for my future plumbing needs.

After being burned by a few other plumbers who tried to take advantage of my ignorance in the world of construction I have come to trust Mr. Rooter for all of my plumbing needs. They show up on time, text me when they are on their way, are friendly and knowledgeable and always leave the work site clean. Their customer service is exceptional in my experience and I appreciate the way they walk me through and explain each step and my options for resolving the issue. I also appreciate that they make calls on weekends at no extra charge. I will never use anyone else ever again for my plumbing needs. Thank you for taking such good care of me, Mr. Rooter!

Best plumbing company ever
Chris Evans came on a Sunday to unclog the pipe running to my bathroom. He walked me through all the possible options, showing me how the cleanout and pipes under our house were set up, and then recommended a solution. He uninstalled the toilet and ran a cable 50 feet into our pipes. He did all of this super quickly and with great COVID safety protocols (mask, distancing, etc). He left our bathroom pretty clean and totally undamaged, inc washing sewage out of our tub. And Chris's quote for this work was about 30% less expensive than the Roto Rooter quote that we had gotten for the same job. I hope you never have this problem, but if you do I would definitely recommend Chris Evans at Mr. Rooter.

Alex the plumber was courteous, friendly, and excellent at removing and installing our new Toto toilet. They took the old toilet and packaging and all the trash and cleaned up very well. Everything went well, I’d use them again.
Do not use this company. They will overcharge you and manipulate you into thinking you need work done that you don’t. I called to have a leaky shower worked on. They came and without even taking the casing off, told me that because my shower head wasn’t “standard” it would cost me $590 bare minimum to have my shower fixed and that it could take weeks. I called another plumber who got it done in 30 minutes for $100 by replacing a tiny rubber fitting + spring that commonly wears out.

A few weeks ago I received excellent care--the best ever--from Alfredo Macias of Mr. Rooter here in Oakland. He was personable, very competent, and informative. I bought my house 22 years ago because of a spectacular yucca tree. Walked in the door, saw it in the backyard through the slider and didn't need to look further. One problem: roots. So the 10 years I have needed to get an annual clean out. Alfredo did a great job for a reasonable price and explained things as he went. And, we had a great conversation!! Gratitude and will use Mr. Rooter every year.
Mr. Rooter provides 24/7 on call service. I called late Saturday night and was able to schedule an appointment on the next day morning (Sunday) for a technician to come to provide a quote. Since our main water pine was leaking and would need to be repaired quickly, I agreed with price. They (5 people) came the next day (Monday) to replace the water pipe. The entire project was finished in one day. I am very much impressed by their quick response and good quantity of work. I highly recommend this company!
Early evening we noticed that we had a back up. Mr. Rooter was able to come out that evening. Cleared everything up quickly. Jimmy was friendly and professional. Reliable service. Thanks so much!
Chris Evans was on time, friendly, and explained everything that was going on. He fixed the problem and fixed our tank so that it would flush harder. All of that in less than 20 minutes.

Highly recommend.Mr Rooter!
The workman arrived on time, explained each step of the repair and what the cost would be before he got started. He also explained options. The best plumber experience I have had!
I own a property management company representing 1000 units in Oakland and Hayward. I called Mr. Rooter at 10 AM. It is now 12:08. I still have not received a call for a plumbing back up at a 50 unit building. My suggestion is never depend on them for 24 hour service. Just like most rooter companies they pretend like they can assist and have done absolutely nothing. I will be most certainly letting my large network of property owners know to never use Mr. Rooter moving forward. I suggest you look elsewhere unless you enjoy getting the run around and never being contacted.

I am happy with he work that was done by Lance.
Lance went above and beyond, literally! After spending an hour trying to root out our shower drain from the bathroom, he went into our crawl space to get a better look at the pipe junction that was causing the problems. He informed me of the situation and proposed a solution that didn’t involve a construction project; rooting the drain from the roof vent. He climbed up there and cleared the drain. He provided clear communication and a solution to our problem.

Mr. Rooter was very responsive,and on time. Returned phone calls as promised, technician was also very responsive. Technician Uriel was on time and polite, very professional looking. Uriel explained the process and all work that needed to be done, Uriel also answered all my questions with no problems, Uriel also quoted me a price for all work which was very reasonable after consulting with his supervisor. Uriel was also a very neat and organized worker, I also stood by and watched Uriel work at times, I felt very comfortable with leaving Uriel to do his work, because at times I was in and out of my house for errands. I could see Uriel was all business when he started working, Uriel was quick but also made sure he work was solid, after Completeing all work necessary Uriel explained what he had done. Uriel tested all connections for leaks and proper fittings after final completion. There was a little bit of a problem with a bathtub fitting, but Uriel took his time and found a solution that fixed the problem. I am completely satisfied with Uriel as a technician and with the work he performed, I am also satisfied with Mr. Rooter services. I will definatley recommend Mr. Rooter to friends and family and also recommend Uriel as their technician. From this point on I will continue to use Mr. Rooter for all my future plumbing needs, thanks to Uriels professionalism and kindness.

Spencer and Crew installed a new Sewer later for the main house and a new ADU. Approx. 150 of sewer line. Everything was completed in an efficient and professional manor. Excellent job!
I had a problem with a toilet and the technician, Alex B, did splendid work! Not only dud he fix the toilet, but also he found that our water pressure was too high so he added a reducer. Plus, he also found that our irrigation has leakage. We just installed it last month so I immediately contacted the contractor. She will send me a worker next week.
His customers service is excellent and also his standard of his work is high.

Kitchen sink backed up needs to be clear of debris like Grease.
During recent storms our basement was flooded, for first time in 48 years. Zack Gilbert of Mr. Rooter came out and pumped out 6-8 inches of water in our 35' x 45' (no kidding) flooded basement. He worked hard to clear our storm drain. But roots had gotten through the pipe, and the drain was irretrievably closed. Zack called his boss, owner Spencer, who came out in twenty minutes.
They concluded that a sump pump was the only fix. The next day, just before the next big storm, the Mr. Rooter team installed the sump pump. No more flooding, and the price was fair. My wife and I are big fans of Spencer and especially Zack. (He was quite empathetic about the disaster that had hit our basement.)

Mr. Rooter to the rescue! Last Sunday while taking out the trash, I noticed my storm drain was emitting dirt into the gutter. That was strange, so I cleared the spillage. When I saw that more dirt spilled out out of the storm drain the next day, I called The Sibling and they advised me to call Mr. Rooter, along with keeping them posted of the goings-on. Mr. Rooter was humongous help when we had a sewer drain situation a year ago. So I called Mr. Rooter on Sunday, and on Monday, Diana returned my call. I told her about the storm drain emitting dirt into the gutter. She advised me she would send out Tyler Garcia, one of their service professionals as the first call. I remember Tyler from last year’s situation, such a professional, personable gentleman. Tyler came out and knew immediately what the situation was: the clay pipe had burst and considering I live in seventy-something house, it was definitely time to replace the storm drain. He walked around the exterior of the house to account as to how many drains were on the roof. He took a report and called the Mr. Rooter office to start the estimate process. We were emailed an estimate and once The Sibling approved of the estimate, I made arrangements to have the storm drain replaced in compliance with the city and county regulations.
Replacing the storm drain pipe and plumbing would be a two-day process. I was surprised to see Tyler again the first day with his colleagues, Will and Richard to do the work. I thought last year’s foreman Alfredo was going to return. This time, Tyler was the one in charge. I made sure to have coffee and bottled water available for them the two days as I knew it was going to be laborious. The first day was a lot of digging and replacing the pipe. The second day, they came back with their cement guy, Eric. Eric was very detail-oriented and meticulous in replacing the cement in the sidewalk and the slab on the walkway to the backyard. They covered the side walk with a large wooden board and an orange cone to dry out over the weekend. I was impressed with Eric’s work. And Tyler came back on Monday to take the board away, to water the lawn, and to do a touch-up around the storm drain entrance to blend in with the curb.
I highly recommend Mr. Rooter for all of your plumbing needs. Especially if one’s regular plumbers are unavailable. One of the plumbers/family friends recommended Mr. Rooter for the sewer situation. I recommend Mr. Rooter for sure regarding situations like the sewer, storm, and drain pipe renovations and repairs. If you are lucky to have Tyler Garcia to assess the situation, you are quite lucky being in good hands. Mr. Rooter to the rescue!
Uriel was a pleasure to work with, he explained everything, worked quickly, cleaned up after himself, was extremely professional and just an all around nice guy.

Steve came over for a free estimate and was on time (!) and very professional. Sent me the estimate within a couple of hours. After a few tweaks we set a date for the work (replacing kitchen sink, faucet and garbage disposal).
Spencer and his assistant came one hour into the two-hour appointment window and was very professional and knowledgeable about the task at hand. He finished the work in the timeframe he gave me (2 hours) and didn't mind my watching the whole operation (I'm curious, not nosy!). Both were friendly without being distracted, and except for a few little snags that had to do with my existing construction (which they were able to solve with a little sweat), all was done and it looks beautiful!
I will definitely go back to Mr. Rooter for any plumbing needs I might have!

Alfredo was a lifesaver. He was extremely professional and arrived before the estimated time slot. He cleaned out our sump pit and took the debris with him. Our pump was replaced with a stronger one and has been working like a champ. Mr. Rooter saved us from more flooding in our in-law unit and allowed us to sleep peacefully during these pineapple express downpours.

Great servicing professional, great systems and procedures and very responsive to calls. Pricing is transparent and the problem quickly and efficiently handled. A great experience with this company and would recommend them to anyone.
Buying an old home means we’ve been using (east bay) Mr. Rooter for decades. In that time, we’ve had the pleasure of seeing three generations of Ferguson help us. Alex (and coworker Benny) replaced the last of the old piping when it finally went kaput. The experience was as professional, expedient and easy going as father and grandfather before.
Mr Rooter breaks the maxim that for quality, speed and value you can only pick two.
Thanks again! You’ll always be our go to plumbers.

They were able to schedule a visit same day and Jose was professional, gracious, fast and extremely knowledgeable. He cleared the drain and also installed an air gap for our dishwasher - not an easy task as he had limited access and had to deal with removing a lot of built up glue and sediment. Their work was exceptional and I will use them again. Don’t hesitate to call them. 100% recommend.

I called Mr. Rooter because we had a clog in our drain that caused water to spew all over the kitchen and laundry room. Got a same-day appt very quickly for later in the day. Uriel showed up and was absolutely a pleasure to deal with. He went under the house to verify his course of action and ended up using a machine-driven snake for the job due to the length, configuration, and pipe size. An hour later the clog was gone, water flowing down the drain rather than onto the floor - and enjoyed chatting with Uriel as he packed up his equipment.
I have gone with Mr. Rooter several times over the years - they replaced our sewer lateral, and installed a new toilet and flange when ours broke. My experiences with this company have always been positive. I have dealt both directly with the owner and with employees on different occasions. It has always been an easy and painless experience, which is why we are repeat customers. They do excellent work, this outfit is clearly run by good folks and they hire good people to work there.
Highly recommend them for any plumbing issue big or small!

Sewage leaked into the garage from the clean out located in the garage. I called Mr. Rooter the next morning and was scheduled the same afternoon. Carlos Sanchez showed up in the timeframe allotted. He took off the cover plate and immediately saw paper. After putting on gloves, he removed all that he could see. He then used a 75’ snake to clear the line. Afterwards, he brought a camera to check the line for obstructions. There were none. What a relief! Carlos was very thorough and friendly. He made a couple of recommendations to make servicing easier. Thanks Carlos. You’re the man! He was done in less than an hour.

After an inspection of our drain clog, the service plumber, Lance, recommend several options and cost estimates. We decided to remove a previously installed drain clean out and install another that would allow access both up and down the drain pipe. Once that was installed, he cleared the drain and we're back in business again! Lance was professional and courteous, always wearing shoe covers when entering our house. I would definitely call Mr. Rooter for future plumbing problems.

Representative wasn't able to inclog toilet due to anither problem that requires repair service.
I simply do not trust Mr Rooter to be honest and fair. Over the phone, the plumber quoted me $1800 to replace a pipe that he said was leaking accompanied with a photo. I decided to see exactly what was wrong, so I drove from San Francisco to Oakland to see personally what was going on. When I got there, what the plumber was quoting $1800 was a simple fix that I could do myself. It required taking out the old galvanized and replacing a 4' piece with PVC. Hardly worth anywhere close to $1800. I told him to just clean out the clogged pipe as originally requested and I would do the rest. All the sudden the $1800 dropped to $275, which was still kinda high, but he was there with the parts, so I agreed. The total job took less than an hour to do. The charge, $300 to clean the pipe and $275 to replace the leaking joint and galvanized pipe.
If I didn't have a basic understanding of plumbing, enough to question his assessment, that job would have totaled $2100 for about an hours worth of work. Do you really think I should recommend your services to another unsuspecting victim? Hell no. Your company is what I would call a predator company, preying on those that have no knowledge of what is required, and relying on trust that is evidently absent.

The plumber did a good job. He appearing on time and professional. But the price was expansive.
The office staff did not do a good job. when we called them, they always say I will get back to you soon or right away. actually it was not. i.e. Chris, in the first time , I asked for changing the quote, since I need to remove one item from my quote, she said you will be contacted within 24 hours. I waited for 2 days, no body contact me, then I called again and got another staff serviced me, and I have to start over again again..
another thing made me upset. Usually when the job is completed, the costumer paid for, they should get a receipt, but it is not, the receipt is only provided upon required. today I call for receipt, Chris told me, she will send it to me in 2 minuets. I waited for whole day, I got nothing.
these things look like a little things, but you can tell they customer service is bad.
I really do not understand when they received payment from the customer, why they will not provide a receipt to the customer?

After another company came out and left not wanting to do the job….so I called Mr Rooter! So happy I did. The technician arrived in the wet dark evening and assessed what needed to be done. Unfortunately the age of the shut off valve didn’t allow access to close off the water to the house. Chris ( the technician) took the time to find all he needed to do upon his return the next day. Next morning water company shut off the main and Chris arrived ready. He had a plan and all the parts necessary to get the job done. He is extremely personable, polite, and professional. We will never need to look any further for our plumbing needs.
Mr Rooter sent the best and all is good in the land of bathroom usage “). Thank you for great service and sending someone who looked for the solutions to the problems rather than walking away.
I highly recommend this company 👍
We had a leak in the drain pipe in the kitchen. We called Mr. Rooter and they promptly made an appointment for someone to come that afternoon. Chris was on time and very courteous. He explained what had happened and what needed to be done. We were quoted a price for the job (not hourly rates). He finished the job promptly. He explained what could be done to prevent future problems. We were very happy with the workmanship, and the courteous workman. We have used this company several times in the past and have been very satisfied with their work.

I've been hiring Mr. Rooter for about 15 years, because they do good work, and they make it right. A real person answers the phone. My home and rental house are both about 90 years old and have challenging plumbing. They fixed the pressure regulator problem which was making a horrible noise. They corrected the cross connection that kept us from turning off the water to the house. They repaired the broken water main without damaging the magnificent magnolia whose roots it ran through. They found a sink trap problem before I did. And they replace, fix, and repair more usual plumbing problems. All their plumbers and receptionists are a pleasure to work with.

We have been using Mr. Rooter for DECADES, for our business and our home. Our last problem was an irreparably broken water heater; Shayea, Will, and John worked on the installation of a new tankless unit. They are all extremely personable, considerate, knowledgeable, professional, hard-working, and diligent. It was an all-day installation, and there were some kinks in the system at the end, which they remediated promptly and cheerfully, facilitated by the lovely Diana, who answers the phone in Oakland. All three of the men are happy with the company and complimentary of the owners (and each other), which I think is important when choosing a company to work with. It is always a very comfortable and reassuring experience to work with Mr. Rooter.

Mr. Rooter Plumbing is highly professional and does amazing work. In a jam when another plumber walked off the job, I called Spencer well after business hours and he was there first thing the next morning. He gave my landlady a fair estimate of the required work and sent Uriel and his apprentice, Will, to do the job the next day.
Uriel was thorough, impeccable, and almost absurdly competent. They all have what my dad would call, “good hands.”
It took a long time and a lot of work, because these guys re-plumbed a whole system that had never really been done quite right. Now it is beautiful.
I lived in constant worry about the macerator on my floating home giving out, which has happened three times in 8 years, due to errors in the original plumbing. This time, when it broke for the third time, we finally got it done right. Uriel explained every bend in the pipe. The new, better macerator Spencer recommended runs like a dream. I also love how this company functions as a teaching lineage, so young people can learn this important trade on the job.
I believe that plumbing is the basis of all civilization. I also believe in hiring and paying professionals like professionals to be professionals.
These guys are professionals. Highly, highly recommend. And thank you, Uriel, Will, and Spencer. I am proud and grateful to be the beneficiary of your fine work in my home.

Mr. Rooter was recommended by an architect. I was impressed by the tech, Jimmy Pham, they sent out to video my sewer line from house outlet to the center of the street. He explained what would be needed to comply with ebmud and they were responsive with their bid compared to some other companies that did not bid on the whole job. They got the work done quickly and it passed the PSL test. I have no information to judge the cost but one other bid was almost exactly the same for the same work scope. I have experience in other types of construction work and it seemed reasonable to me.
they had a same day appointment, showed up on time, did the job. What else do you want? Good work.

The people at Mr. Rooter are always polite and professional and do excellent work. They’re respectful of our space, follow appropriate COVID protocol, and are pleasant. The prices are extremely high though. I go with Mr. Rooter because I’ve always been disappointed working with other plumbers, so maybe this is the cost of doing business. Most recent work: unclog kitchen drain; 1.5 hours of work; $300. Previous: install new toilet (which we bought and had ready to go here) and take away old; just shy of 2 hours; $400.

We have only one bathroom and our bathtub was stopped up. Mr. Rooter’s representative Lance was able to come the same day in the evening and flush it out where it was better then it has been for years! My family and I are very happy with their service. Lance was wearing a mask, covered his shoes and hands and I felt safe during the shelter in place period. Fully recommend Mr. Rooter!
Very professional, timely, and courteous.

Well established full plumbing service company that works 24/7 everyday of the week. Recently, on a Sundays at 8:30 PM Reed of RotoRooter Oakland was at the rescue by 9 pm! I found that amazing. He was very efficient, respectful, skillfull, and equipped; he got the problem (backed up water in the kitchen sink & bathroom sink over flowing) fixed immediately! My hats off to Reed of RotoRooter.

Lance is a really nice guy as well as professional. Had an ice/water line hooked up to the fridge. He installed the in-wall valve which required some new piping. Went smoothly an I now have ice and water. And, a fridge that can now be moved back 10”. Nice.
Had a very serious blockage in a tub drain, well over 25' down the pipe, and Mr Rooter came out with 2 guys and wouldn't stop until they managed to make things right. Really appreciate the thorough and professional work. Yes, definitely recommended for your serious plumbing issues.

The service repair man went over and beyond very polite and friendly
When our sink backed up we called 2 or 3 different companies for emergency service, but Mr. Rooter seemed the most reasonably priced and highly regarded, so we went with them. The woman on the phone dispatched an employee and we got a call from Chris a few minutes later to confirm. He showed up and the first thing we noticed was how friendly he was. He then assessed the problem and began to explain in detail what he would be doing to remedy the issue. He was done with the job within an hour, and even went as far as explaining his work to our inquisitive 2-year-old daughter. Afterward, he gladly cleaned up the mess that ensued, going above and beyond to wipe down the kitchen floor & surrounding cabinets with cleaning product for our safety. The best part was that the amount due when the job was done was even less than the estimate he gave us over the phone. Every experience I’ve had with other plumbing companies prior has been less pleasant as a result of overcharging, and less-than-exemplary employees. Mr. Rooter was a refreshing exception to the norm.
Easy to schedule. Good communication. Professional staff. A bit expensive given the scope of work.

Kudos also to Diana who helped me navigate appointments and respond to all my questions in a friendly manner. I’m new to Oakland, and and have found my go-to plumbing company. Thank you!
Tyler and Carlos were very professional. The toilet issues were a bit complicated but they both resolved it. Lucy and Diane were also very helpful with their professional customer service.
I am so grateful to Scott for his stellar work repairing several fixtures in our older home. The work was scheduled for the day following my call. He was prompt, courteous and professional. He presented various options, respected my decisions and did a great job.
Very respectable, professional people--both in person, and the people on the telephone. My dad spent 2 days trying to fix and figure out the problem, and the plumber who came fixed it in less than an hour! He even explained very clearly to me what the problem was--as someone who has no knowledge of how plumbing works, I could easily understand what he was trying to tell me. Very good service, 11/10

The service person, Chris, was very nice and provided good tips. However, $215 was way too expensive for 15 minutesof work. I know that I can get a cheaper price elsewhere.
I called with a sewage pump ejector issue and was offered a service window later that day. A few minutes later Spencer, the owner gave me a call and offered to come by in the next 15 minutes to check out the issue and give me an estimate himself. He was able to walk me through his trouble shooting process, and provided reasonable quotes for all the different scenario of what he thought might be causing the problem. He was able to fix the issue himself on the spot. In total no more than an hour between when I called and when the problem was resolved. He also offered helpful tips on how to prevent the issue from reoccurring and showed me how to service the pump myself in the future.
Great local business would highly recommend them
I entered a request online for this group, and they responded that afternoon. They scheduled the onsite visit and work quickly, and the tech showed up for the job early, after calling to confirm that it was okay to come over early. He gave a reasonable quote, which I approved, and within two hours a clogged drain that has plagued us for months was cleared. The tech was courteous, friendly, and knowledgeable.

Sewage was getting pumped from my sump pump onto the street. There was a broken line somewhere...
I carefully reviewed a number leak detection services on Yelp before calling my second choice plumber, Mr. Rooter Plumbing of the Oakland... The first choice did not respond to calls and text and reviews suggested he was too busy to respond.
Mr. Rooter answered the phone, gave me a same day appointment and the tech arrived within the 2 hour window. Carlos was helpful and friendly as we tested various water sources to see find the leak. He found the broken pipe and we discussed how to repair the problem. Luckily, it was an exterior drain pipe running down the side of my house and the break was at dirt level. Unfortunately, there were multiple connections making access limited and difficult and a foot of dirt needed to be removed to get good access.
Carlos provided an estimate within 10 minutes after assessing the situation. A whopping $1,960 to remove all the ABS pipe around the leak and replace it with steel. Of course, there was a lower cash price reflecting about a 10% discount. Although this plumbing was new construction and the home improvement project recently passed building code inspection Carlos asserted the existing ABS pipe was non-compliant and must be replaced. He declined a temporary repair to prevent sewage from getting pumped into the street. I asked him if he had had some rubber fittings that would simply wrap the disconnected pipe to prevent further leakage. He declined to consider a temporary repair. I asked him if he would help dig dirt to expose the pipe while I consulted with the contractor responsible to seek a warranty repair. Carlos declined to help. His only proposal was to pay in full to remove everything purportedly non-complaint with Berkeley building code or do nothing. He left after I paid his $180 fee for the site visit. He promised to send me the estimate but it was never received.
I called another plumber I have used in the past but was unavailable on an emergency basis. I excavated the pipe by hand over the course of an hour to allow good access. The known plumber arrived the next day, assessed the problem and proposed a simple repair. I agreed. He went to the store for parts and completed repairs within an hour upon returning. Cost was less than $200.
Mr. Rooter responded quickly apparently trying to gouge a needy customer. I'll never call Mr. Rooter again. I will share my extremely experience with anyone looking for a plumbing recommendation. Beware of claims that pipes do not meet building code and all or nothing services. Had my project not been inspected recently I might have fallen for the building code error and wasted a lot of money.

I cannot recommend Shaeya enough for the fantastic work he did on our home. He completely re-piped our entire home with copper pipes and installed a brand new tankless water heater. He was efficient, kind, timely, and does amazing work. He has a vast skill set in plumbing and I’d rehire him again in a heartbeat. Excellent work all around.
I thought it was expensive for 10- 20 mins of work to clean an aerator and filter. Cost more than $200 for that. They did respond quickly though.

Snake very long distance from street to rear house. Excellent job & timely
The estimator/foreman was very professional inspecting everything that needed to be done, spelled it out neatly, clearly, concisely verbally and in the written estimate. The job was promptly scheduled. Despite some problems encountered in this complicated 300' cast iron line, they deftly repaired the line in a systematic thorough way in order to pass inspection. Most impressive is that they planned enough time and man power to anticipate any possible problems ahead of time. The mark of a true pro in management as well as plumbing! I give them a 10 out of 10!

Rooting for Mr. Rooter!
My neighbor called yesterday morning to say a hole had sprung in his yard and poop was flowing out of it. 🥴💩It took a while to determine it was coming from my pipes. Mr. Rooter arrived within an hour to assess the situation and scheduled the crew for the following day. While they were delayed due to another emergency, they were extremely informative and kind, and they did great work in a short timeframe. Turns out this is happening all over the hills — the excessive rains are damaging the infrastructure, even more so for homes like mine, where the pipes are decades old. I can’t speak to the price b/c we had to move fast and I don’t have anything to compare it to. But I am super grateful that they were available so quickly, and as usual, this happened the day before a holiday weekend. It could have been disastrous. Mr. Rooter made it right.
I have used Mr. Rooter Plumbing of The Oakland-Berkeley Area for my east bay clients with excellent results. Definetly a 5 STAR Company

The folks at Mr. Rooter are not only the best in the industry with their skills and creative problem-solving, but are super professional, easy to work with, all have fantastic personalities, are responsive, and quite dedicated.
We purchased a 100+ year old home last year that needed all the work. New water heater, removal of old pipes and installation of new cooper ones, replacement of drainage pipes, new gas line to the water heater & HVAC, and new sub-sink waste centrifuge masticator. In a week's time, all the work was done to the highest of standards.
A test of quality and dependability is serviceability after work is complete (because, like everything else, things don't always function 100%). We've had a manufacturer defect in a part inside the Navien tankless water heater, which caused water temperatures to not heat up sporadically. Super frustrating, but three times the team came out right away until they figured out the issue (these machines are super high tech, so it takes some time to get to the bottom of it). A replacement part and several troubleshooting hours later (under warranty and at zero additional cost to us), the issue was resolved. Bravo for the team's persistence!
We have more work to be done very soon, and will update this review once that's finished. In the meanwhile, we always recommend the folks at Mr. Rooter Oakland/Berkeley to anyone looking for a suggestion (like a neighbour a street over who, today, asked our Facebook group for recommendations, which we happily gave the phone/email for Mr. Rooter to).
Oh... pricing is super fair too. We had contacted about 5 other companies when we scoped out the work. Though Mr. Rooter wasn't the cheapest (you get what you pay for), they were also not the most expensive. We feel like we struck an awesome middle ground that optimized the quality-to-cost function.
So yeah... all the positive reviews here are very much on par with what you'd want in a plumbing company. Bravo to the wonderful crew at Mr. Rooter!

There is nothing as unsettling as having your clogged toilet overflowing onto your bathroom floor and heading for the hallway and the rest of the house at 1am. How many towels can you quickly lay hands on to make a dam? That's what we were doing this morning. Despite having 24 hour service, by the time we were done mopping up we decided to go to sleep. We called Mr. Rooter at 7am, left a message with their answering service, got a swift call back and got scheduled for arrival between 10 am & noon. Mr. Rooter showed up on time (well before noon!) and the plumber was polite, clean -- he had shoe coverings! -- and well able to cope with our toilet. We can flush again! Their technician gave us some good advice about our toilet and a drippy sink faucet. Everything was clean when he left. The fee was market rate, and while I hate wasting money, I am only too happy to have our only bathroom back up and running! (Did I mention there are 4 of us and only 1 bathroom?) Mr. Rooter was prompt, competent, clean, pleasant and fair priced. We have a new go-to plumber. Thank you Mr. Rooter -- but I hope we don't meet under these circumstances again anytime soon.

This company was our second opinion. The first company Oakland Rooter wanted to charge us for redoing the whole plumbing system in our house. But Jose from Mr. Rooter came in diagnosed the problem, showed me the details of his method fixing it, He had the right tools and proceeded to do what the previous company could not do which was unclog our drains. They even provided us with a environmental safe drain cleaner to follow up the unclogging of the drain
The first company also had problems with the little thinGs like respecting the cleanliness of our house. Jose put protective booties over his shoes every time he entered our house. And even laid out a mat at our front door.
These guys are great. Have had them out for many issues over the years. Most recently they ran a Gas line for a new fireplace insert. The two plumbers Alex and Sunti were very professional. They wore booties on their shoes and kept everything really clean and cleaned up well after themselves. I really appreciated that.
5 stars in my book!

This has been the only plumber I would ever use. I have an advantage Plan membership which is supposed to provide priority sevice. I had no issues until I needed them for an urgent sewage situation on a Sunday. Despite their 24/7 assurances on their website, the after hours service was basically a call center and one contractor who could not promise service and communicated poorly. No one was able to come but we didnt find out until late in the day, and only after calling a bunch of times. I had to start all over again Monday morning. They did fit me in quickly and did a great job as usual. So Id still recommend them. I just wish they were more honest in setting expectations on after-hours service.

Was very impressed at the turnaround time. I called, and within an hour a plumber was cleaning out the clog and replacing the u-joint/trap. Very happy with the work wnd impressed this booked and completed on a Sunday as I was actually calling to get the jobbed booked for the week day. Great Job and thanks a million as it’s no fun to have a kitchen sink that won’t drain.

Aidan showed up on time, fix the problems and took extra care to keep everything clean. He left the bathroom cleaner than when he arrived. Excellent work.
Carlos provided a very clean installation of a new valve. And assessed our drainage issues accurately. Very professional and clear communication also.

A plumbing company who gets the job done. A little on the pricier side of things, but they don't have to come back.

Toilet was clogged and now fixed.
I desperately called a dozen places when our problem emerged at 5pm with no luck. Mr. rooter came to the rescue and Chris was super
professional, knowledgeable and friendly. I am so grateful and the price was much more reasonable than I had anticipated.

Alex & his supervisor replaced a corroded gas line to my tenant's stove and installed a new kitchen faucet. Their office clearly communicated with me about scheduling, costs and options & they even gave me a discount and made some good recommendations about future work. I'd definitely hire them again.
Cleared two clogged drain lines 100% problem solved.
Alex from Mr. Rooter has helped us out twice so far and he’s really great, knowledgeable, and experienced. Would definitely recommend!
I like how Mr Rooter stays in touch with the customer

Mr. Rooter! When I say more than exceptional service when I say today was a breeze this was a serious situation for me and my family we was not able to keep our hygiene up and when I say Uriel made sure that we was content with what information that we had before we sign anything. We are more content and happy with our service! His costumer service and professionalism was more than expectional! Will definitely call mr rooter again, and recommended highly for my family and friends

Had a problem with the sewage line backing up. Technician shayea was very professional, taking his time snaking through the clean out line. Showed me an the fiber optic scope a major problem with tree roots. He has to talk with his assistant manager about the sewer lateral because we have slope problems

Chris came out promptly, very knowledgeable and experienced. He identified the washing machine drain issues immediately and then, spent time assessing the drainage systems present in the building. He cleaned out the drainage line from two different access points and made sure he went beyond the washing machine drainage line into the sewer line itself to make sure it was cleaned out thoroughly. He was a great teacher pointing out what he was doing and why. He provided tips to prevent this from happening again in the future.

I live in a turn of century home with old pipes and my kitchen sink was backed up. Technician C-Lance Meibos, was very friendly and fast. He explained everything really well and left the work done well. I would recommend Mr. Rooter because of the experience I had.

Timely, professional
Having a sewer back up emergency is never fun nor cheap, so finding the right company to service you is tricky. Mr. Rooter came recommended by another plumber that couldn't get to us quick enough and I am grateful they did. Shanay ( not sure on the spelling ) was awesome on the phone and she sent Chris out the same day. The job was more than could be done on day one, so they came back the next day and did an excellent job. Thank you all for a truly great plumbing experience!!

Very professional during this Covid19. Prompt on the appointment- able to complete the situation efficiently on a Sunday. I feel confident of what was installed and it had value to what I needed to pay.
