    Water main replacement
    Jenny C.

    Cristóbal and his team initially came to check for a leak but found some other issues that were in dire need of fixing. I ultimately decided to get all the plumbing redone with copper and Cristóbal and his team did it quickly and efficiently and at a fair price. He communicated well and sent me before and after photos/videos of all the work he and his team completed. You will really get a sense that your plumbing troubles are over because of the thorough quality of work and clear communication from Cristóbal. Should any plumbing issues arise, I will always go back to Cristóbal and master plumbing. Don't hesitate and make the call!

    Being a retired contractor of running my own roofing company (cslb lic#781119 listed as Vice President) I know how important it is to be a honest contractor (0 complaints running my own company for many many years) and how important service after the sale is. Believe me as I've been in the industry, it's very hard finding a honest contractor. Cristobal came by Veterans Day to take care of an emergency job. Ironically today is Memorial Day and I'm having a different plumbing issue. Master Plumbing replied within minutes and made the time to come by within 2 hours on a holiday! Omg, I can't even believe how this honest guy works so hard and takes so much pride in his company and service. I put my reputation on the line to say you will thank me and not regret for recommending Cristobal from Master Plumbing to your plumbing needs. This guy is a real honest person with professionalism, something you rarely see now a days. Trust me that's done tens millions of dollars of work in the Bay Area, this guy is one of a kind ! You will be very satisfied!!! Thank you for your honest work and exceptional service I will continue recommending you to anyone who needs plumbing services !

    Christobal had worked on my property before. He is so efficient as well as good at Planning. He solved my problem in a much shorter time with fewer materials than any other plumbers' solutions. Because of the efficiency his cost was much less as well. I love the fact that he gets right to work and gets done as soon as possible. Even if the job takes multiple days, he is very conscientious about how the property is kept. He always cleans up after himself And keeps me updated on what's happening. This last time I had a water main break to the building and it cost me hundreds of gallons a day leaking ($4,000+ water bill!!!). Eventually, we figured it was the tree root that was creating the problem. So he proposed a reroute under the sidewalk from the main, connecting directly to the building. He also proposed installing a pressure regulator so that it would not need so much pressure and therefore be more efficient. He covered the underground copper pipes with a plastic liner so that they wouldn't corrode. He poured new concrete to replace the part of the walkway the rerouting had to go through. It looks even better than before! If you have a big job or a small job, I would highly recommend using Master Plumbing. Since he was such a new business owner, he didn't have his credit card and merchant services set up yet. We were able to work out a way to charge my plumbing project eventually. I hope he gets that straightened out soon because otherwise it would limit his size of projects and payments.

    After! They left the place shining. The before was a nightmare.

    See all

    I called Oakland Rooter and Plumbing last minute midday Saturday because the bathtub at my property…read morewasn't draining. We had another company's plumber snake the bathtub, but unfortunately, it didn't solve the problem. Oakland Rooter and Plumbing was immediately able to get someone out to the property within just a few hours. Eddie came out, assessed the issue, and recommended snaking the bathtub again. Within an hour, he was able to clear a hairball from the pipe and get the bathtub draining properly again! We were initially worried that there might be a broken pipe, so we were very relieved that Eddie was able to resolve the issue so quickly. Huge thank you to Eddie and Oakland Rooter and Plumbing! I really appreciated the clear communication, quick response, availability on such short notice, and professionalism. We will definitely be reaching out again for future plumbing services!

    After getting a very high quote from a major plumbing chain, we decided to contact Water Heater…read moreMasters. We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Water Heater Masters. Alex sent our technician, Rojo, who helped install a new 40-gallon gas water heater in our indoor utility closet, and he was incredibly diligent, professional, and efficient from start to finish. Installing a tank in an inside closet can be tricky, but Rojo handled the entire job seamlessly in just 2 hours. He replaced everything with high-quality components, including: * New hot and cold water flex lines * A brand new water shut-off valve * A new gas flex line and sediment trap * Fully reworked earthquake straps (to meet California safety codes) * Properly updated T&P line and venting He also took care of the removal and disposal of our heavy 18 yr old tank, leaving the utility closet completely clean. If you want fair pricing, expert specialized service, and a technician who respects your time and home, call Water Heater Masters and ask for Rojo. Highly recommended!

    We were replacing a gas water heater with a hybrid electric heat pump water heater. Generally, this…read moretype of heater costs twice as much (price and installation) as a traditional electric water heater, but costs a lot less to run (and therefore you recoup the additional cost in a few years from lower operating costs). I had a very easy experience getting an on-site quote. I received 3 quotes for this job. 2 quotes, including this one, came in around $7100. I went with a third one at around $6700 (which included an additional mixing valve) and am very happy with my decision. Overall price was not a big part of my decision, but brand of water heater was. After doing some research online, the most recommended brands are AO Smith and Rheem (GE). Both higher quotes were for Navien, which has only been making heat pump water heaters for 1 year, but I was told that it is the most reliable brand. I did not understand how this claim could be made, given how short the duration of evaluation for this product. Even the worst appliances usually work for at least a year. So I requested a quote for AO Smith or Rheem, which I did not get. I'm not sure why my brand request was not honored, but it made me question whether I should go with a company that either has communication issues or maybe some type of deal with Navien that I was not informed about. Many water heater installers are preferred installers of certain brands, which means they can get better pricing, etc. I did not want to be a guinea pig for Navien.

It only occurred when the weather was hot. Basically, only summer afternoons. We had PG&E come out repeatedly and they could not find the source. We spoke with plumbers and other heater repair companies. All of them told us that it was not our heater; that we were wrong about the inconsistency of the smell. That gas leaks are only consistent and would not happen only when it was hot. We were told that we must be wrong. We felt like we were going crazy. Until we called Bay Area Water Heaters and Dave came out (with a whole crew). He took the time to inspect our heater and said yes, this slight gas smell on hot days is something he had heard of. It was likely due to an old valve within the control panel. He walked us through our options but ultimately suggested replacing the entire heater. His team was able to do the job right then and there and at a reasonable rate. It was completed within the hour. And sure enough, no more gas smell in our garage.

Despite complying with their policy right away, the owner became hostile. He lost his temper, raised his voice, and berated me for how much the cancellation hurt his business. A cancellation fee is meant to cover lost time--it is not a license to yell at and lecture paying customers who are speaking respectfully. Handling ordinary business interactions with this level of aggression and emotional volatility is completely unacceptable. I would strongly advise against dealing with an owner who treats customers this way.

Not only did he respond to my message that I left quickly! And I also left a text just to be sure. He called back and walked me through some safety protocols to make sure everything was turned off like the gas. Then came by the next day! He is very honest and does not try to upsell. He could've easily sold me a whole new water heater installation because it's been in the home already now for 18 years!, but he decided that we could just try changing the one part that had rusted and began spewing water everywhere. It was crazy. I was in so much distress, but was so encouraged by his honest helpfulness. It ended up being cheaper than I had anticipated. Because I had checked in with Costco and Home Depot for a full replacement. But if I would've went that route, I would've spent thousands of dollars. It feels so good to know that there's an honest skilled plumber in our community you're not only does excellent work but cares about people. We learned the hard way: check your water heaters regularly.
