    To reply your comment, I add our messages to remind you that you did mention your anniversary and your travel plan to me as a client. Also you charged me half of the price for sending your staff to check the leak job they did the day before... after I questioning why is an extra charge for that visit . Lastly, I called you for which brand and model of the new drinking filter system your staff recommend me. You said you'll have to confirm with the vendor and let me know, which you never left me know. But I guess you're too busy as always and "forget" again! -------------------------------------------- I have been using Mainline plumbing for my house and my rental properties. The first few times with the owner Ranelle were good. But last time was really bad!! It starts from October 2024, my kitchen faucet and drinking filter faucet are leaking. So I contacted Ranelle and was told need to replace them. So I got all the new parts ready and scheduled a time with her. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The day her staff was supposed to show up between 9-11am turned out to be no show. I contacted her and was told they have another sewer emergency and "forgot" about me. So had to reschedule. Wish she could give me a heads up instead of keeping me waiting.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Unfortunately this was just the beginning! On November 4th, her staff came and replaced the faucets. But after they left , I noticed there's leaking under the sink since I put kitchen towels there. I was told maybe because pressure is high and could change regulator and relief velve. I'm fine to change that because I trusted her. Her staff came again but left saying there's no leak. Need to come another day to change the regulator. Ranelle charged me again because her staff came to check "their previous leak job" but didn't find the leak. Anyway, I paid her. Then they changed the velve and regulator and I was hoping it's done but no no no!!! The filter water faucet is leaking water drastically from where the air was supposed to be out. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I tried to get hold of her, but there're tons of reason/ excuses to not able to talk: her anniversary, her doctor appointments: she's on the plane, her staffs are sick[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] . And it's already Jan 2025. I had to keep texting her for when they can come to fix it, then she told me she's helping her friends vacating , then help the city with issues, another bad gas leak somewhere else etc. Time goes to Feb 2025 and finally her staff came. As what Ranelle keeps saying it's a faulty faucet even though it's a new one I just purchased to replace the old one when her staff came in Nov. Her another stuff couldn't find the issue and just saying it's a faulty faucet and suggest me to change the drinking water system. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I'm done with this mess and just want to have it fixed so I said ok and waited for Ranelle to show me which brand and model. Until June 2025, I still haven't heard from her.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I contacted another plumber Z& H plumbing and the owner Zorro responded right away and came to fix all the problem. I wish I was not that patient for Mainline plumbing. I will never use them again and definitely do not recommend them!

    Mainline misdiagnosed our leak. We had to get a different plumber to fix it.

    Our family has been using Mainline for our home and rental properties for a few years. Recently, our tenants had an intermittent leak under the sink. Mainline came out and said water was leaking through the backsplash, they did no repairs and left. The leak continued intermittently. We got a tiling person in who said there was no leak in the backsplash. Six weeks later, the tenants made a video of the leak coming from the pipes underneath. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I contacted Mainline again and asked them to return as they had incorrectly diagnosed the problem. They refused to return as they were "not available" and said "this type of issue couldn't possibly be intermittent... it looks like faucet".[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I contacted another plumber who came out and diagnosed the problem immediately, it was a problem with the pipe as the tenants said all along. Thankfully the new plumber was able to fix it. Disappointed Mainline didn't find the problem and refused to return, plus I am out of pocket on a second plumber. Will not use again.

    I rarely write reviews, but this experience truly deserves recognition…read more Late in the evening (around 10 PM on 4/1/2026), we had an urgent plumbing issue and called Flood Brothers Plumbing. From the moment we reached out, their responsiveness and professionalism were exceptional. Mike, along with his crew Tyler and Louie, arrived promptly and immediately put us at ease. They were not only highly knowledgeable and efficient, but also incredibly respectful, caring, and detail-oriented. They took the time to clearly explain the issue, walked us through the solution, and handled everything with confidence and expertise. What really stood out was how clean and organized they were throughout the entire process--something that is so appreciated during a stressful situation. It's rare to find a team that combines professionalism, skill, and genuine customer care at this level. You can truly tell they take pride in their work and value their clients. I have already highly recommended Flood Brothers Plumbing to my neighbors, family, friends, fellow homeowners, landlords, and my network of realtors, as well as on Facebook, Instagram, and the Nextdoor app. If you're looking for a reliable, honest, and top-quality plumbing company--especially in an emergency--this is the team to call. Thank you again to Mike, Tyler, and Louie for your outstanding service!

I knew what the core problem was and that the drain was physically blocked some distance from the sink itself, and I realized that I couldn't fix it myself. So after checking Yelp and finding the stellar reviews I just called Victor at 11.04 in the morning, and he picked up himself :). We chatted and he asked me to text our exact address (which I did) and he texted back that he had a couple of jobs near us but that he thought he could be with by 7pm. It got to about 8.30pm so I texted and he called back and said he could be with us in 15 minutes if it wasn't too late or he would come first thing in the morning. I said please come now and he did. It was Victor himself, a real gentleman who REALLY knows his stuff! 45 minutes later the sink was flowing again like magic. He cleaned everything up and took care to wear shoe covers and gloves. It was also awesome to chit chat with him about Beverly Hills and the celebs all around us over the years - including a BIG name that used to live in our building in the 70's (news to him). So it was fun as well as great service. EXCELLENT - thank you Victor!!

Quality: Victor was exceptional--clear, honest, and extremely communicative. Managing a property from a distance is stressful, but he made it easy. He took the time to explain everything patiently to my father, focused on prevention, and treated him with genuine care and respect. It never felt rushed or transactional. Value: Outstanding. Victor was upfront about pricing and actively looked for ways to save my father money long-term instead of upselling unnecessary work. That level of integrity is rare. We feel very lucky to have found Victor's Rooter & Plumbing. Knowing he is licensed, insured, and experienced gave us real peace of mind. His contact is now saved, and he will absolutely be our go-to plumber moving forward. Highly recommend!

I contacted several authorized service providers listed for my unit's brand. Two companies quoted me between $300-$600 just to reset the code and perform a system flush. My third call was to John, whom I found through Yelp and who was also an authorized dealer for my tankless water heater brand. Unlike the others, John was honest, professional, and genuinely focused on helping rather than making a quick profit. He simply asked if I had a screwdriver available and, within less than five minutes over the phone, walked me through the reset process step-by-step. Thanks to his guidance, the error code was cleared, my hot water was restored, and the unit has been working perfectly again. John demonstrated exceptional integrity, professionalism, and customer service. He could have easily charged for a service call, but instead chose to help me immediately and earn my trust as a long-term customer. It's rare to find that level of honesty today, and I highly recommend his business to anyone needing reliable tankless water heater service.

I know absolutely nothing about plumbing, tankless water heaters, flame rods, gas meters, or any of the things he was talking about. I found Chris online, reached out, and he spent a huge amount of time texting and troubleshooting with me. He had me send photos of the unit, the error history, gas meter, and internal components. He patiently walked me through opening the unit, identifying the flame rods, removing them, cleaning them, and reassembling everything. He explained what he was seeing, answered every question, and never made me feel foolish despite my complete lack of experience. What impressed me most was that he wasn't trying to sell me a service call. He was genuinely focused on solving the problem. After following his instructions, the water heater fired back up and started working again. In a world where many contractors won't even return a call, Chris spent his evening helping a stranger troubleshoot a complicated issue over text messages and photos. Knowledgeable, honest, patient, and incredibly generous with his time. I would not hesitate to call Chris for any plumbing issue in the future. Highly recommended. 5 stars.
