Every morning I walk my dogs, and while I'm on my walk I always see the white National Plumbing & Rooter vans on their way out to start their day. Several months ago I made a point of jotting down the phone number from the side of the vans and I programmed it into my phone. I had a feeling that someday National Plumbing & Rooter was going to be MY plumber. Lately, I haven't been getting hot water in my shower. There was ample hot water everywhere else in my house, but in my shower the water temperature never raised beyond luke warm. Today was the day I realized that this was the perfect opportunity to try National Plumbing & Rooter. When I phoned I was told that Tony, the owner would phone me back shortly. He phoned me back in less than 5 minutes. On the phone, Tony told me he could be at my house in 2 minutes. He arrived in about a minute-and-half. As I had suspected, Tony and I are neighbors, which is why he was able to mobilize and get to my house so quickly. Tony completely understood the issue and quickly resolved it. I'm guessing he spent a total of 2 1/2 minutes making a simple adjustment. The best part of the story is that Tony charged me a price that simply could not be beat. Today, Tony and the team at National Plumbing & Rooter did more than repair a plumbing problem, they restored my faith in people. A situation that began as a frustrating "here we go again" scenario ultimately became an experience where integrity and community won the day! I offer my sincere thanks to Tony and everyone at National Plumbing & Rooter. I am extremely happy and comforted to know that I not only have discovered a trustworthy and professional plumber, but I also have an amazing neighbor who has integrity and a sense of community. If you live in the Greater Los Angeles Area or San Fernando Area and need a plumber, you need look no further than National Plumbing & Rooter. read more

We have used Tony and his team for over a decade and they are amazing. They have done really large jobs for us (re-plumbing the whole house) to small jobs (leaky faucets and clogged drains). In times of emergency they will get there quickly. They are always so nice, clean up after each job and communicate well on what work is needed and how much it costs. We always know that we are getting high quality service with Tony! read more

Tony and his team are attentive and punctual. They take care of the issues and do it with a smile. I've used them for years and will continue to do so. read more

Tony and his right hand man Jose are awesome. I have owned my home for almost 10 years and National Plumbing is the only plumbing company that has and will every work on my plumbing issues. Very personable, great attitude and just a down right good guy. When ever I have had an emergency and needed assistance fast, I call Tony or the company and get a lightning fast response. A few weeks ago he replaced the plumbing under my kitchen sink that was Mickey moused prior to buying the home. Last night my wife took a shower and noticed the toilet gurgling and both bath tubs backed up in the home. Called and left a message that night. Tony called me at 7am the following morning and was at my house at 2. Ran a camera down the main and roots coming into the pipes. By 3:30 he and Jose had power jetted the main, ran the camera again and clean as a whistle. What I like most about him is his honesty. He will not just tell you what the problem is, he will show you. He has shown me plumbing manuals for projects as well as this last project, making sure I saw the pipes and the roots for my self, so I could make an informed decision on the work to be done. I wish him continued business especially now during the pandemic. Thanks Tony and Jose. Stay safe! Chet read more

You won't want to try another plumbing company. Tony the owner is extremely professional and is very knowledgeable in his line of work. I highly recommend this company. You won't be disappointed. Amy read more

Tony, the owner of National Plumbing personally came to my house to address my plumbing issues. He arrived on time and came the same day I called. He explained what the problem may be and then how he would try to fix it. Tony laid a tarp and towels to keep things clean and he removed all trash when he left. In a short time my kitchen sink was unclogged and with no leaks and a new toilet valve installed along with a sink stopper and down rod that now work. Tony was friendly, professional, and fair in his prices (which he quoted before he began). Tony and National Plumbing are my new go-to plumbers of choice. Thank you Tony read more

Tony has come several times to help with my bathroom drain and toilet . Great service and reasonably priced . They're always my first call when I need a plumber . read more

I still think these guys are very good at what they do, but over time they became reluctant to do smaller jobs-----you know, normal kinds of things people call a plumber for. I actually had 2 instances when they didn't ever call me back after I left messages with their service and I needed help quickly. I had 2 other instances when they sent other people to do work when they were on "big jobs" and I didn't care for them at all, Another time when they DID come over they overcharged me ridiculously to put a part in my kitchen sink to "fix" a drip but should have done both the hot and cold faucets which would have been simple. Instead they did only one side and it started dripping again in short order. After all these disappointments I moved on because in subtle ways I started feeling disrespected by National Plumbing and did find an excellent, reliable plumbing service locally who come over right when you need them, 7 days a week, 24 hours a day-----and the owner Tony (I guess everyone in plumbing is named Tony) follows up every time to make sure you received superior service.

National just left my home today after replacing some under-house drain pipe. Tony & Jose are a great resource for actual plumbing jobs - not just for drain cleaning. Over the past few years they have installed kitchen & bathroom faucets, replaced drain clean-outs and drain pipes, installed tankless water heaters and performed maintenance on the heaters - all with timeliness, professionalism and at an honest and reasonable price. Not the absolute cheapest, but the best for value and quality. TRUSTWORTHY & SKILLED TRADESMEN WHO KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING, HOW LONG IT WILL TAKE AND WHAT IS A REASONABLE COST TO THE HOME OWNER. I highly recommend if you need quality work and an honest tradesman! read more

Home repairs are never fun, but Tony makes it as good as possible. He generally is able to prioritize emergencies and is quick to help with all plumbing needs. Very honest. Explains the problem/fix well. Reasonably priced. read more

I never want to need a plumber but whenever I do it's a relief to know I can call these guys. We've had them out for minor projects like snaking a drain all the way to major ones like replumbing the entire house. They are always on time, professional and do a great job. In the many times we've used them I've never had a single complaint. read more

Tony is the absolute best. Have been with him for 10+ years, and he is super responsive, reasonably priced, and reliable! Highly recommend! read more

Many thanks to Tony for taking care of our issue so quickly, professionally and timely. Will be our go to plumber for our plumbing needs. Great job Tony; THANK YOU! read more

Tony and his crew are TOP NOTCH! Had our home re-piped and they are so prfessional - all done in one day. We call Tony for ALL our plumbing needs!! read more

We were able to purchase a home in Burbank in our price range because of the many existing issues with the property. One of them was a bum water heater and some other plumbing nightmares. After a search here and Angie's list, I held my breath and picked National Plumbing & Rooter. Tony was so respectful, calm and nice. He did quality work, quickly and at a price that I hope is competitive. I'm hopeful we never need a plumber again, but if we do, we'll certainly give him a call. read more

I had a plumbing issue and I decided to go with these guys. I was able to make an appointment within minutes. Evan arrived on time as scheduled within the hour window. I was very pleased with the quality and cleanliness of the work to be honest. I would definitely recommend!!!! read more

Wow the guy in the picture actually showed up to my house. I was surprised, with a name like national plumbing I thought it would be one of those chains, but nope, Tony actually showed up. Very nice guy, I think he goes way beyond trying to make sure everything is good before he leaves. Our shower drain was clogged up, figured I can knock it out with a plunger, Nope not having it... Seems like the kids stuffed too much baby wipes in the toilet, and it backed the whole house up, not a very pleasant thing in the middle of the summer. In any case, Tony took care of it, unclogged it. As far as I can tell there are thousands of plumbers on Yelp, some with great reviews, and some not so great, and I am pretty sure any one of them could have unclogged the shower, but for some reason my personality clicked with Tony... Do you think it's wrong to ask your plumber to hang out? Not in that way... (you perverts) I am just saying... read more

Tony and his team are great.. I am a repeat customer, because national plumbing delivers professionalism, clean work and most important honesty. Tony comes up with logical solutions that in long run will saves you money and headaches.. I trust and highly recommend National plumbing. Thank you Tony and National Plumbing team for helping us. read more

The tenant at my rental property informed me that the master toilet continued to back up - despite several clean outs and replacement of the entire sewer about a year ago. I was hesitant to call my previous plumber as I believe he vastly overcharged for the sewer line replacement. So, I went to Yelp (and Angie's List) in search of a new plumber and am so glad I did - because, thanks to other positive reviews, I found Tony (and his assistant, Jose) with National Plumbing. Tony arrive the next morning after I called and quickly assessed that the old low-flow toilet was no longer doing its job properly and recommended a new one - to which I agreed. Tony left to purchase a replacement low-flow toilet, returned quickly and in less than an hour, my tenant had the flushing power she was lacking. I had such a positive experience working with Tony that I actually called him the next day to fix my own leaking toilets, which another plumber failed to accomplish despite multiple attempts. Tony quickly assessed the issues, repaired and replaced the problem parts and my toilets have finally stopped wasting water. Tony is now my new go-to plumber and I could not be more satisfied with the timeliness and quality of his service. Thanks, Tony - it was a pleasure to work with you (though hope I don't need to call upon you too often ...) !! read more

We found National Plumbing on the Angie's List website several years ago. Tony from National Plumbing has to be the most honorable plumber on the planet earth. We've used him at our last two homes and for a wide array of plumbing issues. He's cleared toilets, scooped out sewer lines, replaced a hot water heater, and most recently repiped an entire 1970's home with copper. Tony does an outstanding job on every project. His pricing is very fair and competitive and he shows up on time and completes the work on schedule. Congratulations...you just found the only plumber you'll ever need! Cheers! read more

I am so pleased with the work from National Plumbing: Tony and his guys! Great attitude!. Best experience of time management: communicating his availability, scheduling, how long job will take, etc. If Tony makes an appointment window, he keeps it. The time frame given is actually the time frame to complete the job! If he gives me an estimate, there are no surprises -- the final invoice matched the estimate. Provides a professional estimate for big jobs--something surprisingly difficult to get from some other plumbers. Over a few years, I've come to trust Tony and that he's not upselling me for unecessary things Plus, he's correcting previous owners' bad installs or repairs. Tony is such a breath of fresh air! I've had too many bad experiences with others in home repair/remodelling--rude, lacking common courtesy, late, no shows, questionable competency, etc. Best clean-up I've experienced from any hire! A first, they took ALL their garbage with them -- nothing was deposited in any of our trash/recycle bins. Over years, he's done smalled projects replace parts and repair leaks. Recent Major Jobs: Replaced our water heater tank with tankless, incl. necessary plumbing/venting. When they went under house, in crawlspace, they informed me of 2 separate locations of drain lines leaking and needing replacement (warned to plan for this a few years ago from another plumber). They just replaced those this week. Drain lines replacement: Tony made a point to show me the damaged pipes once removed. These old galvanized/cast iron pipes were truly clogged, rusted/corroded, One had a very long crack down a susbstantial length of pipe. They even removed an old clean-out which was improperly installed by previous owners' plumber--our other plumbers warned us not to use it since it could damage the toilet(s)! To replace drain lines, dug a hole at side of house...covered with stepping stones/pavers and rocks. I requested care not to bury rock with dirt as they dug. When finished, I was really impressed with how well they replaced it all-- I almost couldn't tell where the hole was recovered! Best clean-up: swept our front walk, cleaner than when they arrived. Even took ALL their garbage with them -- nothing was left lying around or deposited in any of our trash/recycle bins Both of these jobs are costly...any plumber...so I really appreciated that Tony didn't nickle-and-dime when he noticed one of the toilets didn't flush properly and replaced the flapper for me. If he tells me how long the job will take, it hasn't taken any longer than promised... The tankless install was promised as a 1-day job -- our house's existing structure/plumbing meant it took longer than anticipated to connect new plumbing to existing, but Tony & Jose worked a very LONG day to finish rather than come back a 2nd day. Tony's has a GREAT attitude: It took me a LONG time to decide to switch from tank to tankless. Spoke to several plumbers. Tony's quote was comparable to others. All plumbers, this was costly and complex (existing tank etc. wasn't installed properly). He answered ALL my questions. He was patient, no high-pressure, and always with courtesy and class. Took me 2-3 years to finally decide to move forward. Cost had gone up a little (unit and/or parts, Labor rate unchanged). Tony called to apologize about price increase, gave me a new estimate which had only gone up less than $100.. (Overall job a few thousand...included installing a sink and rerouting plumbing for it). Final invoice matched estimate. read more

Tony &Jose of National Plumbing & Rooter saved the Day! Thanksgiving afternoon had a geyser in my front yard, of course main water supply had to be turned off. Timing is everything, not easy to find a plumber the day of Black Friday shopping.So grateful Tony worked me into his schedule, fixed the issue , got water back up and running. Very knowledgeable, gave me a complete sense of confidence to have them back for major work that is needed. CA Woodland Hills read more

We found them on Angie's List and Yelp after we had an emergency plumbing issue at our new home. They were prompt, friendly and knowledgeable. I ask a lot of questions, and so they were patient and walked us through each step of the process and showed us what the problems were and explained what work they would do to fix it. You could also tell they cared about the quality of the work. We would highly recommend them! read more

Moved in to my new home and surprise surprise problems already, no hot water. Called the gas company and they let me know that the water heater needed to be changed. Got a recommendation from my friend/realtor for a plumber to come check out what was going on. The were efficient and friendly. They let me know my options and we went from there. Our hot water is working like a dream. Thank you so much Evan for coming out so quickly. You guys have made a lifelong customer out of me! read more

I had to replace my 50-gallon tank with a tankless and relocate It from the laundry room to the outside. Tony came to my house, evaluated the situation and explained my options to me. He was honest, polite, and knowledgeable. I had few more plumbers to come out to quote me and they were trying to change my mind about going tankless or about relocating the tank. Also one of them quoted me a ridiculous price. I hired Tony to do the job and he showed up on time with his crew and finished everything before the planned time. They cleaned their work area and left everything the way it was. He also took care of scheduling the city inspection and worked with the inspector on few issues that were resolved without additional cost. They did a great job. Thank you Tony. read more

I worked with Evan this past week. He showed up early, Was professional and Knowledgeable. He even made sure everything was cleaned up when he left. I would definitely recommend using National Plumbing & Rooter for all your plumbing needs. These guys Rock!!! read more

I ran out of hot water and I couldn't figure out what the problem was so I called a plumber and the first company that popped up was National Plumbing company. Evan was able to assess and complete the job with complete honesty and a genuine attitude. Being a former plumber I was able to gauge his honesty and commitment to finishing the job within the time and amount given. Please use National Plumbing Company if you're in the valley. read more

I've got a plumbing emergency and I've got the best response time and quality I could imagine. He did clean up of the line and explained issue to me. He also explained possible solutions to avoid issues in the future. After half an hour it was functional. Great job Tony! read more

I have used National Plumbing on a number of occasions. They are the best. They respond right away when you call and usually get there the same day (unless we call late in the day and then they come first thing in the morning). We recommended them to our next door neighbor and now she uses National as her go-to plumber too. The services they've performed for us thus far: repairing a broken garbage disposal; replacing a hard-to-reach pipe in my bathroom sink; replacing a broken water pipe underneath the house; repairing a broken faucet and one or two other things that I can't remember right now. I can't recommend them enough. read more

Thanks you Tony for doing such an incredible job. I came home to a leak under my Kitchen sink and called Tony Immediately, in a panic. He calmly told me what told me what to do to stop the leak, clean up and dry out. He came as soon as he could and easily fixed the problem. Tony is easy to talk to, he listens to what your saying, knows what he is doing and answers all your questions. I know now that the job is done it is done correctly. I will always call Tony at National for all my plumbing needs. read more

I've had a problem with my sink leaking that I would get fixed but a different issue would cause another leak in another area. Finally I called National Plumbing, thinking I needed a new faucet. They came and diagnosed the cause of the leak, which was fixable without replacing the whole thing and they were in and out in about 15 minutes. Totally professional, honest, and very competent! read more

Tony went over all my options for replacing my old tank water heater. Whether it was to get another tank water heater or a tankless water heater. He presented all the facts without trying to sway me one way or another. I thought his pricing was competitive and he is really knowledgeable. He worked with me on figuring out the optimal location for the tankless water heater and explained everything he was doing and why he was doing it. On the day of the install, Tony and Jose worked tirelessly to install the water heater. The hot water works flawlessly and I couldn't be happier. Tony also spent a considerable amount of time coordinating with the LA County inspector to make sure all the permits are signed off and good to go. I wouldn't hesitate to use Tony again in the future. For projects, I typically will have to make several bids and talk to a lot of different people to get a good sense of who to use and what my options are. With Tony, I feel that he is honest and I don't doubt that he would do a great job for a fair price. read more

I cannot say enough about National Plumbing and the owner Tony. I called to ask a question about installing a sink after I would decide to put a new counter top in my powder room, Tony said he would stop over to look at it and quote me a price. He would not charge me for the estimate. While he was here I asked him to look at my toilet as it had stopped working last week. He looked at it and told me what was needed. He went out to his truck but didn't have the part. He came back and said if I wanted to do it he would go and pick one up and come back and do it right away. I said yes. He came back put the part in very quickly and was done in no time, the toilet works perfectly now. How nice that was of him to go out of his way to get the part for me. Tony is very nice and I would recommend him to any of my friends and family. read more

This company is as good as it gets, and we found them right here on Yelp. We first had them to our house to unclog our kitchen sink, and they were right out and very reasonable. Today one of our outside water drains was totally clogged and again, they came right over fixed it and even crawled under the house, at my request, to check for any problems. He found a leaking toliet seal, took pictures to show me, and fixed it right away. I highly recommend them. read more

National Plumbing (Tony) is highly skilled, knowledgeable, professional, and his prices are fair. He will show up at the exact time that is agreed upon, he will explain everything that you need to know about the job he is about to do, and when he leaves your plumbing issue (and maybe some other small issues that he finds) will be completely resolved. I agree completely with the other positive reviews for National Plumbing--Tony is the best. read more

Great service. Went to Home Depot twice to work on our issues. I thought the prices were high but I have never worked with a Plummer before and I think it is typical. They worked on pricing with me. Also when he tried to fix something and couldn't without needing to do more he didn't charge me for that labor. Used the Yelp deal. Felt like it was worth the service. read more

We went through several plumbers before we were lucky enough to find National Plumbing/Tony. He is punctual, his work is top notch, and you get a sense you can trust him. We've had him to our house about 4-5 times, sometimes to clean up work another plumber did and other work that was needed. Each time, the work was great, and the one time I had to call him back because the problem resurfaced, he came back and fixed it free of charge. I just wish there were more businesses like this one. read more

Completely happy with all the work Tony/Jose have done for us. They replaced two of our sewer lines for a much more reasonable price than anyone else quoted. Both jobs were completed in less than 2 days and there was never any problem with scheduling. I wish all my contractors were as meticulous and knowledgeable as Tony. read more

Hands down the BEST plumber in L.A. promt, professional, and courteous all in one. 5 stars

I recommend National wholeheartedly. When I called to schedule a plumber, Tony called back himself within 20 minutes to book the appt. He showed up exactly on time and was polite and gave me a clear description of the work that needed to be done -- he fixed one of the problems i had and didn't even charge me (a sink stopper had come un-threaded). His price was fair and he did the work -- including trip to the store -- in just over an hour. Fast, good, work and Tony has to be the cleanest neatest plumber I've ever met! read more
