Since sewage pipes inside my house been replaced, the outside sewage pipe just couldn't take the increased water volume. All sewage back up to my house. I called LR&P again for help. Duy and his team spent 5 days to replace old pipe outside and also helped to remove a tree. Another remarkable job! Now I can flush my toilet without worry. If anyone has plumbing problem, just give LR&P a call. They will answer. read more

Called Duy around 10:30pm for a sewer backup. He responded in 20 min and worked until 2am. He explained the problem, fixed the backup issue, and gave a few tips on proper maintenance. Hard working and professional. BTW, the diagnostic camera he used is really impressive. Strongly recommend Local! read more

Pricy. The guy came to fix a leak in kitchen. After he did the job, asked him if there is a warranty, he said they don't give any warranty on any job. Charged a lot for a 30 minute job. After I posted this review, the owner saw this and called me that they do give warranties. Came to the house and gave me a month warranty for the job. With much apology he said that he will tell his employees that they give work warranties. read more

I first had David come over to try to replace a leaky shower valve. David had to leave to buy something but his van broke down. company sent 2 guys to finish the work. They had to up the price but I was happy that no damage to the pipes or valve. read more

Great and friendly service! Got the main pipe unclogged in less than an hour, and the price was 1/2 of some of the quotes I got here on Yelp. Kudos! read more

Best customer service everrrr!!!! I called Local Rooter & Plumbing to ask for a quote. Duy answered the phone and asked me a couple questions. Then he walked me through some simple trouble shooting techniques which fixed the issue. He could have easily just came to my place and charged hundreds of dollars, but he decided to be a good samaritan and help me over the phone. If something is easily fixable, they will walk you thought the steps. Duy, you made a permanent customer!!!!! Thank you! read more

Second time we've used them and both time were great experiences. They're prompt, affordable and do quality work. Most recent professional was Tai Nguyen who did a quick job on our bathtub. He explained the issue, did the work quickly and cleaned up before leaving. Will definitely use again and recommend to our neighbors. read more

I highly recommend local rooter and plumbing. We had a drain clog and Tai came just an hour after we called. He did a great job of clearing the block in the drain in a very short time. Very professional and reliable read more

This was my first time calling this Co. My sink got overflowed and water was all over my floor and I had to clean everything and I was stressed so I called this Co. and they send David to my house in less than an hour. He was such a wonderful and kind person, he fixed it so fast and didn't even let me to stress. Thank you David. read more

Duy responded super fast with his availability and a rough estimate. Said he'd come by same day. Was super friendly on arrival and got straight to work. He handled the issue well and the estimate was accurate. Highly recommend. read more

Great job, guys! They came on Sunday - i really was desperate, that we'll find no one to help us! They announced a time & then called, that they could come earlier! They explained everything really understandable & even spoke to our landlord! Thanks so much for everything! read more

Highly recommend their service. Called them on a Sunday evening, they arrived promptly and repaired our issue above and beyond our expectations. Very professional and courteous with very reasonable prices. They are available 24/7! Very grateful for these guys! read more

Just went through a water audit and they had some comments about potential leaks. Since the last project was the shower replacement by Duy and team, they suggested to have it checked. The team showed up within an hour of my request and double checked that everything was fine ('bone dry under the house'). They take pride in their craftsmanship and ensure that the quality is excellent. read more

Had a great experience with Local Rooter & Plumbing. Duy responded to my quote request on Yelp in a timely manner and was upfront about the pricing, which was very reasonable in comparison to the other plumbers I contacted. The total price was just a little bit more than their standard installation due to plumbing in our Condo complex and understandable. I had them install a whole house filtration/descaler system, and they did a great job. I initially had an issue with my kitchen faucet after the install as the pressure was low, and I called Duy, and he offered to come that evening to resolve the issue, but I suggested the following morning instead. They came back at the time and cleared the issue. It was due to excess carbon build up in my faucets filter since that was the faucet I turned on to help flush the water, and they cleaned it up as well as my other faucets as well. All in all, great service! read more

This guy got to my house cleaned out our kitchen sink with only an hour notice right before our party Thank you so much very professional and clean. read more

Johnny and Steven just saved my life! Dropped my engagement ring down the shower drain, called and they were here within an hour. Got to work and got my ring back a mere 30 min later. Amazing service. They were so sweet to my toddlers as well, who couldn't resist poking their noses in while the guys were working. My 4 yo daughter's review? "I want to be a plumber when I grow up!". That's 6 stars right there. read more

Honest, On Time, High Integrity, Great Quality, Responsive. I've used Dewey, Paul and team three different occasions now. This last one was so severe, an underground crack in the PVC water mainline that was a hidden leak that was killing our water bill. Will absolutely be the first people I call if I have such issues in the future. read more

Excellent service! I had a clogged on Saturday night and called Local Rooter. I did not have an appointment but nevertheless Mr. Loi Thai accepted my job which I really appreciated. Mr. Loi gave an estimated arrival time of 8:00 pm but actually came 15 minutes earlier. After arriving at the house, Loi quickly ran the snake through the line and cleared out the blockage. Also, Mr. Thai took off his shoe (without me asking) before entering my house and he laid a big piece of protective cloth on the hardwood floor where he set his equipment, these shows his professionalism. What more can I ask for, basically you have someone who comes ASAP and fixes your problem quickly on a Saturday night! And he charged exactly the same price he quoted me on the phone. After the job was done, Mr. Thai also checked my sewage line under the house and made some suggestion (which makes sense to me) about some work that can be done to improve my drainage system. I told him I need to think it over and he was totally fine with that and not at all pushy about it. read more

These guys are quick, effective and no nonsense. Early Saturday morning we had a slow running toilet and some back up debris to the bathtub, sure signs of a clogged main. I am somewhat handy and tried to fix it but this was beyond me. We were fortunate that our older house has a sewer clean-out access point outside. The wife said we have used Local Rooter before so I gave them a call. Tai & Toan happened to be in the area and were able to arrive at our house in their large unmarked truck within 15 minutes of the call, not bad on a Saturday morning. They identified the problems quickly gave us the options of a simple clean-out or putting a camera inside pipe to view the problem as well which I preferred not to look at. They gave us an up-front quote, I happened to know the approximate cost of clearing main line clog from our neighbors and Local Rooter was right in range. The clog were cleared very quickly, what a relief. We will definitely call them again for future plumbing needs but hopefully not anytime soon :) Thanks guys. read more

Use the service to snake my main drain and unclogged kitchen sink.The technician found out bigger problem by inspecting our underlying sewer.Professional work-on time- and reasonable price.Highly recommend read more

Called Duy on Saturday and came promptly and quickly diagnosed the pressure valve issue. Unfortunately, he did not have the valve available right there so came again Tuesday to replace it. He quickly replaced the valve and on top of it, reduced the cost because it was easier and quicker than what he thought it'd be (he was able to secure the exact valve as the old one). It's awesome to find a plumber who is not only skilled in trade but also honest! Ask for Duy if you have plumbing issues! read more

I called Local Rooter in the late afternoon and they sent out a tech within an hour. They charge $165/hr. Very reasonable price. David Dinh was our tech! He called before he arrived. He was friendly, professional and very informative. Our tub was backing up and the toilets were not flushing. David snaked 2 way clean out and was able to clear the blockage with no issues. He was thorough and made sure everything was clear before he finished. So I told him that the tub was not draining since all the sewage backed into it. He then snaked the tub AND he literally cleaned the tub. He snaked it twice to make sure it was clear and he finished by wiping up the rest of the tub. Again, he shared some helpful information that I appreciated. I highly recommend this company and definitely ask for David Dinh!!! Thanks David! read more

Can't rave enough about LR&P! Great company!!! I'm super happy that I decided to use them. They responded promptly and were able to send someone out the same day. Tai came, he assessed accurately, charged me a fair price and completed the job efficiently and professionally! He made sure to clean up the area before he left. He was courtesy, respectful, and competent! Enough said! Ask for Tai! He won't let you down! read more

Thai came on time as promised. Very friendly and professional. Which is why I called them for the second time for plumbing issues. I'd recommend them to others. Thank you so much Tony! read more

I had a leaky kitchen sink and Tai got here about 20 min earlier than expected. He removed his shoes, introduced himself and shook our hands. He looked at the sink and it was a very simple fix. He told us what parts we needed and showed my boyfriend how to fix it and didn't charge us, saving us around $150. He even followed up with a phone call to check in and make sure it was fixed. He told us to call him if anything else came up. A true professional. read more

I called Local Rooter & Plumbing because we could hear water running in our bathroom even though no water was on, indicating we had a leak somewhere. Within an hour, Johnny arrived to assess the situation (which was even earlier than the hour and a half time estimate I was originally given!). He first crawled underneath our house through the VERY tight crawlspace and figured out that the leak was behind the bathroom wall, not underneath the house. Because we have plaster and lath walls instead of drywall, he was very careful to minimize the size of the hole he had to put in the wall to get the leak fixed. Amazingly, he had everything fixed within an hour! Johnny was very knowledgeable and professional, and I would highly recommend him and Local Rooter & Plumbing! read more

I never write a review, but here is my first one. Awesome job from Local Rooter, my first experience with them and particularly Kim Vo. I had a problem where in my washer flow was backing up into the garage sink. Called my home warranty company and they deployed another company guy to do the cleaning/snaking etc. but in spite of the guy spending 3 hours between two visits, nothing happened and no root cause. Time was going and life was at a standstill with over a week of no laundry. Finally a colleague gave me their phone number and this guy showed on the same day, gave me a precise problem, in fact he found that my kitchen drain had a leakage and needed a more urgent replacement. In all, his explanation, with pictures, video and diagram was excellent. He spent over 45 mins talking to my home warranty company explaining them about the issue. It was late in the day, so I called them next day, and Kim showed up couple of hours later. It was Saturday and he and another gentleman, spent the next 3 hours, making sure all the pipes were changed, tested, additional cleanout installed. Kim was very professional, took away all the anxiety with these kind of jobs, explained each step and charged a reasonable fee for the whole job. Very impressive and thanks to his timeliness, hard work and professionalism. Definitely a friend to be in the plumbing industry. Thanks Kim, Would definitely Recommend you to my friends. read more

We called about a leaking pipe and got an immediate appointment. Jonny showed up on time, was very professional, and walked us through all of our options for repair. He also provided a free estimate. Definitely recommend! read more

Called this afternoon because our kitchen sink backed up last night. Trieu came over in less than 2 hours. He clearly explained the problem and gave the options. Once he started working, he was thorough and finished his work to my satisfaction. Within 1 hour, the drain is cleared out and water running down again. He also cleaned the work area very well. I highly recommend this company. read more

This company is awesome. They are responsive, on time, good at what they do and SO nice. Can't say enough nice things about Duy Nguyen. He is awesome. Lost my plumber when he moved out of town and so happy to have found a replacement. read more

Firstly a note about this 2-star rating given that almost all other ratings are 5-star. I was puzzled about this myself, until I noticed that all the good reviews appear to be for different people (Tai and Duong) than the ones who showed up at my house. So maybe that explains it. I normally don't write reviews but my exceptionally bad experience with this plumber behooves me to warn others that may be similarly thrown off by the 5-star reviews out there. Again, maybe the two individuals quoted in other reviews - Tai and Duong - are worth 5-stars, but the guys that showed up at my door - I would never call them back. We live in an area with lots of trees and every 2-2.5 years we have roots invading our sewer pipe which starts to clog up and eventually needs to be 'rooted'. We had faced this situation twice in the past 5.5 years and had called plumbers to root them out. Both times the rooters had to root about 100 feet of pipe and come back for a second time in a few days because the sewer clogged again - but they came back and finished the job because they stood by their work. The first time I was charged $125 for rooting alone (without a clean-out) and the second time $900 for installing a clean-out and rooting. In both instances the problem didn't reoccur for 2-2.5 years. Fast forward to May 2017, and we start to see the sewer clog a little bit one and off. This continues for a few days and we decide that its the roots again, so I call my old plumber. Turns out he's retired. So then I go on to yelp and call the 5-start rated Local Plumber. The reviews are all wonderful, so what could go wrong? I call them up and they quote me $150 to do the rooting. This matches up with what my first plumber charged so I think this is probably okay. Two guys show up on time - a little early actually - are polite, neat and tidy. I won't name their names, but they are not called or look like the pictures of Duong and Tai - so these are definitely different people (thought they work for the same company). So far so good, but then the surprises start. 1. The first guy tells me is that he will charge extra to insert the camera into the sewer. Really? - he's going to charge me extra for using his own tools? I never do that to *my* clients. I don't want to get played by his scheme so I ask him to just root the sewer from the cleanout in the front yard. I leave them alone so they don't feel I'm watching over their shoulders - but after 15 mins or so I realize that they are packed up and ready to leave! 2. I ask them to show me the roots; and they point me to one little strand of root - one or two inches long only ! I am stunned - how could this 2 inch piece of root be clogging up our sewer?. So they tell me that there was no clog in the section of sewer-pipe that I pointed them to, that the clog is inside the house. 3. So I tell them, okay check inside the house - to which they say that they'll charge me extra! I argue that their job is to fix the problem, not just work on sections of it - to which the second guy says that it was my 'fault' to have pointed them to the wrong section (implying that what just happened was a consequence of my 'fault') 4. I realize that these people are just trying to find ways to make more money than the $150 they quoted me - first by saying that they'll charge an extra $100 for the camera and then more for checking in side the house. So I tell them that this experience does not match-up with the review I read on Yelp. 5. At this point the first guy seems offended (though I never suggested that they were scamming me) and tells me that 'we don't scam people' and that they'll just leave without charging anything. I say, don't leave without your payment, do the job and take your payment. 6. So to prove that the clog is inside, they ask me to run the shower. I do that, the sewer clogs, and the water starts to come out of the clean-out. Oops the clog is indeed not inside the house but in the front-yard - like I had told them and what they had vehemently denied, and had accused me of being at fault ! They had even told me that they had double-checked by running water through the clean-out ! 7. Okay, so we're back to square-one. The clog is in the front-yard and they hadn't rooted it yet. No apology from them. They go at it again and this time insert the camera 'for free' and find lots more roots in there. They remove a little bit - not a whole lot like the previous two plumbers. My wife points that out to which the second guy says - we don't remove all the roots, we'll just unclog your pipe for now. Your only solution is to replace the entire sewer pipe (for which they had quoted me $7500 including a clean-out). Really? 8. I ask them that since they've removed very few roots, will they come back and fix the issue if it reappear within a week? They refuse. 9. I'm sure that the problem will re-occur much sooner this time - maybe even weeks. read more

Hello Fellow Yelpers, Please trust the five stars reviews. They are for real. I shopped around and called Duey. My water valve did not shut off the water properly when I tried to replace the toilette flushing kit. I called several plumbers. They gave me an estimate that was a rip off. Then, I called Duey. He showed up as promised the same day within two hour window. He fixed within half an hour. So, if I were anyone looking for a plumbing expert on short notice, I will call Duey and/or his partners! The bottom line is that he does excellent work at a reasonable price, literally because he/his partner is not "out to rip you off" in time of need. read more

Vo is AMAZING!!! On Monday, September 12, 2016, I was looking for someone who can help me with my clogged drain issue (water backing up to the bathtub when using water in other parts of the house). I checked YELP for local plumbers in my area and found Local Rooter & Plumbing with great reviews so I called them. Mind you, I also called several other plumbers but Vo and Duy were the 1st to return my call within 1 hour and an appointment was set and were on time. All the positive reviews from YELP are all true. Vo was nice, professional, very knowledgeable, very patient in describing the issues with me so that I can understand was caused the drain to clog. It took 3 different machines with long cables one with its own generator to finally unclog the drain. With the jetted water to help clear the drain and the machine with a camera, we were able to view the drain all the way to the main sewer line once unclogged. He explained in details what was happening on our main drain so I was aware if it happens again that I will know what to do. I was very impress with Vo and his patience. I think anyone else would have given up because this job took about 3 hours. Thank you Vo for not giving up until the job is done!!! I was so impress with the job he has done that I mentioned that I will need other plumbing work to replace my main water valve and would like to make an appointment to get it done. After his assessment, he said, yes he can do it but we don't have to do it now and can wait when we're ready since we are thinking of replacing our galvanized pipes and can be all done at the same time. I was worried about the valve because it looks really bad. 15 minutes after Vo left, he called me. He told me and assured me that valve is okay right now but if something happen he gave me instructions of what to do. He did not want me to get stressed about it. I guess he saw me looking stress after he left. Now, how many people would have done that? He could have said okay I will replace it and be done with it. I really appreciate his honesty. I highly recommend Local Rooter & Plumbing honest service to anybody. Definitely will recommend to others! read more

We had a mysterious leak into bedroom floor. Had a few plumbers coming to see the problem. All hesitated to go under the house to investigate, and all guessed it's drain leak. Thai came and went under the house immediately and few minutes later, he confirmed it's clean water leak instead of drain. He didn't wait for another appointment to fix, he understands we need water, and fixed the problem on the spot! We are so lucky to have a plumber like him, thoughtful, experienced, willing and honest! We prayed for the right plumber! and here he came, sent by God! We highly recommend Thai, if you have any plumbing issues, he is experienced and will REALLY solve your problem! read more

We're in the middle of installing our new kitchen. We took out the old sink and noticed a puddle and a pinhole leak. The owner tried to help walk me through how to fix it. I had a great experience with him, but I was a little in over my head. A few days later, we noticed that the hot water heater wasn't working, so we called back. The owner sent David out to our house to fix the hot water shut off valve. He did a great job-especially in the 100 degree weather! We were so impressed with David's professionalism and efficiency. He also did a clean job and was very organized. We will call this company anytime we need a plumber and recommend this company to our friends and family. Thanks again!!! read more

I had 2 clogged toilets. Called and spoke with Duey, and made an appointment for the same day! That was awesome considering this was a little emergency and I had called 2 other places (shall remain nameless) that didn't even pick up the phone or even bother to call me back after I left messages. Tai arrived within the window they told me. He was very friendly and got to work right away. He had the toilets working within minutes! I will definitely be using them again when the time comes. Thank you guys, you rock! read more

I had a sewage backup in the house. Called Local Rooter. Kim Vo (and David) came out and went the extra mile to make sure the lines were clear using both the water jet method and the snake method to get the lines cleaned. He even repaired my kitchen faucet for free (no hot water for two years and wife was real mad at me, getting this fixed was worth it in itself!) Kim suggested we install clean-outs for the drainage. He gave us a reasonable quote. The team came on time and installed the clean-outs. Job well done. Cleaned up after the work. Very professional. Very courteous. Very conscious of making sure the job is done right and customer is 110% satisfied. Very rare to find people like this nowadays. Thanks a lot guys. read more

We had a leaked faucet in my son's bathroom. Since the fixtures are more than 10 years old, we would like to have the whole set replaced. The handles of our oval tub's faucets were also broken. After reading Yelp reviews, we decided to call Local Rooter and Plumbing. I called Duy at 8:30 am today. He answered my phone and gave me a quote that is very reasonable. He thoroughly explained the process to me and I was very impressed with his knowledge and politeness. Kim Vo showed up on time today at 11am. I was very impressed with his skills. He took away the old and broken parts without damaging the tubs, the wall or the pipes. He was able to find parts that are conpatible with my existing pipes and keep the parts that still work to save us money. He finished the job today :):). Our bathtubs now look so nice. We were so happy. We strongly recommend Kim Vo, Duy and Local Rooter and Plumbing. read more

I picked these guys because of the good Yelp reviews but ended having an entirely disappointing experience. I called Duey (I think the owner) letting him know of a significant leak on our side of the water meter in front of our house. He said he will send someone the next day. No one showed up during the hour window Duey gave me, and after I called him, he sent someone by the name of Steve. Steve took a look and gave an estimate of $650 for a job that takes only a couple of hours. I asked Steve how many hours he estimates the job to take and he said "we don't estimate by the hour." I asked him then how did you come up with $650, and he started saying, I need to go Home Depot, and then come back and open up the meter plumbing, and ... He basically saw that we are desperate because the water leak was large and decided to take advantage of the situation. Absolutely dishonest and a waste of our time. read more

The best plumber I ever had. Make sure you ask for David. He was super thorough and made sure that the fix was permanent. He tested the leak several times. Extremely considerate and did an awesome job cleaning up afterwards. read more
