Greatest Rooter/Plumber/Hydro-Jet service ever! I had two different competitor companies come by for estimates, both of which wanted to charge me insane prices and rope me into doing a huge job they swore up and down had to be done. My gut said otherwise, and I used Chat GPT and found Robby's Rooter. Not only did they charge me hundreds of dollars less for the Hydro-Jet service, Juan and Sergio diagnosed the actual issue that wasn't as bad as I was told it was by the other two companies, they solved my problem and made a new client who will refer everyone I know to them. If you want the real deal and are done with dishonest companies who just want your money - look no farther! Robby's Rooter get it done! read more

Great job! I was wanting to provide local businesses opportunities to stay afloat. They were recommended by another company that did my water heater. Which they are also great, (YeePlumbing on Fig). They were able to accommodate my schedule, came on time, and explained the work and other possible outcomes that may cost more money. He was able to fix the problem without any added expenses. Highly recommend. read more

Once again Robby's Rooter came to our rescue. We've been using them for over ten years and have always been pleased by their work. Their staff are knowledgable, professional and provide excellent customer service; today Hugo unclogged a bathroom sink. I have also recommended them to friends. read more

These guys are fair and honest. If you want to use a trustworthy plumber, these are your guys.

Robby's Rooter is one of the most trusted vendors for service to our apartment building, and they have always been there when we need them. Last Saturday night we had a plumbing emergency at 8:00 p.m. and they were there within an hour to make the repair. We've been using them for years and their entire staff is professional, courteous and knowledgable. The plumbers always explain the process and clean up after the job is done. They are incredibly reliable and provide exceptional work and excellent customer service. read more

They seem to be a bait and switch business. They won't tell the cost before, it being urgent matter I gave plumber permission to clear my main drain. The same business 3 years ago charged $125.00 for the exact same service. After the service was complete, they charged me $250.00. They said it's because of inflation and told them inflation has increased by 100%. They eventually charged me $180.00 for the 40 minutes of work. Don't use this business because they take advantage of people who don't know better. BEWARE: CHOOSE ANOTHER PLUMBER! read more

Excellent customer service they were on time they explain exactly what was gonna be done and they left with everything intact thank you Highland Park is lucky to have such an excellent plumber in our area read more

I only use Robby's Rooter service at my Apt. bldg. They do great work & usually same day service if needed. I recommend their Main drain clean out & regular drain snake as routine maintenance to keep everything clean & flowing. Thanks Robby's I love your customer service! read more

Robbys Rooter has been my exclusive plumbing Co. at my Apt. bldg. for the past few years. I've tried other plumbers & several other companies that weren't very professional. When I needed plumbing for a washer/dryer hooRobby's Rooter did an outstanding job. The space was small & I was concerned it couldn't be done, but Robbys got the Job done & done well! I'm super impressed with their work & so are other landlords I've shared this information with. GREAT JOB & thank you to everyone at Robbys Rooter! Once again Robby's Rooter saved me in an emergency!! A Sloan valve toilet malfunctioned and wouldn't stop continuously flushing! I texted Robby Rooter's after hours emergency line and Manny was here within an hour and fixed the toilet within 15 Mins.! He's a real Pro and helps me be an outstanding landlord. All my tenants love & trust Robby's Rooter as much as I do. I'm so grateful for their good service and dedication. I highly recommend Robbys Rooter and wouldn't waste my time with any other plumbing service! read more

Jaime from Robby's Rooter has been fantastic at our condo building. Robby's Rooter is our preferred plumber for our association and has been reliable, effective, and reasonable with time/attention to difficult matters. I would recommend them for your plumbing needs. read more

They came on a Saturday when all my toilets and sinks were backed up and flooding my house, within 45 minutes the problem was solved! Very friendly, and efficient. Also explained everything to me so I understood the problem! read more

As a business, I fully believe that if you can't fix something you should not charge someone. I find it completely ridiculous that they would charge me $100 to come over and tell me they can't fixture toilet. In fact they said the company doesn't make that part anymore. They said I would need to buy a Jew toilet and they'd be happy to charge me again. Meanwhile I was able to find the $30 part on Amazon and a dozen other websites in a 5 second web search. If YOU feel like forkin out 100 bucks just to have someone come and try to sell you something else go for it. Otherwise stay away from these crooks!!!! read more

I had a plumbing emergency and was referred to Robby's by a friend and I'm so glad I went with them. I had water gushing out of an exterior wall behind my shower and my water heater died! They quickly came out and replaced the water heater and started work on the leak in the wall. Their prices were very fair and the plumbers that came out were knowledgeable and tidy. I ended up getting a new tub and moving the plumbing lines for the vanity. I'm very happy with their work, I have a 1920's house so everything is a bit tricky but they worked diligently on my job and it came out great. I really appreciated how they explained everything and showed me my options. I will definitely be calling them for all future plumbing needs. read more

Had a leak on my bathroom vent and garbage disposal wasn't working. The manager at my building contacted me to tell me they were there and if I could let them in, I said I can't but they have my permission since my bathroom was flooded.... this was around noon, so I get home from work around 9pm this find this.. I call the company and the girl is either high or has no idea what the heck she is doing... then she says to me "how do u know we were there today" I said I KNOW U GUYS WHERE HERE, my manager told me!!! I tell her "do u know her terrified I was to come out of the garage to see this" she says oh I am sure... but I don't think it was us"... I got so upset that I just hung up on her, only to get this text from my manager the next morning, today saying this (it's in the picture listed below) then asks if the disposal was fixed , which I say no it wasn't.... they literally are incompetent and had I not taken my dog to work that day with me..... things would have escalated much more than they already had for being so careless... read more

We've been living in L.A. apartments for so long now that the prospect of an actual appointment with a real, live plumber feels like a great gift and a huge triumph! Our superintendent responded in place of management earlier today, telling us she would put us last on "The List" for a plumber who, much to our luck, just happened to be on-site for the day. Of course it sucks to be last for anything, but there's no point in complaining when we're already on the damn list and the plumber is a-comin'! Marco has moved on from Robby's Rooter since my previous yelp below, but the equally fantastic CONRAD came by as promised with his training associate, Nestor. Conrad skillfully assessed and diagnosed our newly leaking pipe and non-flushing toilet, and his capable associate was quick to find the right parts and pitch in with toilet repair tasks as well. While we waited for Nestor to retrieve a final part from their vehicle downstairs, the highly personable Conrad cracked a few jokes at the expense of my wobbly, diabetic cat, but he obviously seems to be a cat lover himself. After completing and double-checking both repairs in less than half an hour, Conrad located a hot water (something we've been going without until now) switch for the bathroom sink and TURNED IT ON! A totally unexpected bonus for sure (thanks again, Conrad!), and one we will appreciate using as long as we have to live here. I tried to send them off with a couple of beers, but only Nestor took his, as Conrad doesn't drink. Leaky pipes might be endurable in the short term, but how long do you think you can go without a flushing toilet? You shouldn't have to find out, and thankfully, since Robby's best guys took care of us, we won't have to either! read more

Jaime just repaired the sink at my apartment and did a great job. I thought it would take hours and it took minutes. When I noticed the sink was a problem, I contacted the management and they sent a repair team that initially did not fix the problem and said it would take hours to fix with a second visit. Jaime came instead and solved the problem in about fifteen minutes. And he could not have been friendlier. Five stars. read more

Thank the lord above for Robby's Rooter! One of our bathrooms had been out of commission for the last 2 weeks. After three plumbers, the problem still persisted, and my roommates and I were losing hope. Enter Jaime, who came in and immediately got to work. He was knowledgeable, professional, and fixed the problem within 30 minutes! He also was just an all around great guy! Cannot recommend this service enough!! Thank you!! read more

Thank you for promptly attending to my plumbing needs. The air flow was backing up into the dishwasher potentially causing a huge problem.

Had a sewer back up and was referred to Robby's Rooter by a neighbor and friend. Couldn't have been more satisfied with the job performed. Arrived 20 mins after my call. Very thorough, very professional. There was a potential big problem that would have cost me thousands... after the inspection the total bill came to $145, and the man was here for 2.5 hours. In regard to some of the bad reviews on here, I have to say that I probably wouldn't call a "rooter" service to handle my other plumbing needs. Just sayin'. read more

worst plumber. manny doesn't know what he's doing and when i complained (and i was right) he left me in the lurch. don't use this service. too inexperienced. now the repair handle that they replaced on friday fell off and i cannot use the shower. just awful awful awful. did i mention awful???? i'm only posting a star rating because yelp won't let me post this review without a star being filled in. believe me, i'm giving them zero stars. read more

would give them 0stars., terrible people...rude and they don't call back awful, not honest......don't use....go elsewhere for a good, honest plumber read more

I kitchen sink needed to be rooted, plus I needed a new faucet in my guest bath, all my drains needed to be snaked and caulking throughout - Robby's came the same day, they did a fabulous job and we super reasonably priced. I had asked for other plumbers to come and was told I would have to wait somewhere between 3-6 days and the prices quoted were two to three ties what I ended up paying Robby's. Robby's came highly recommended by a neighbor who manages a small apartment building across the street and he had high praise for them and I was really in need - his faith in Robby's was well placed and now I can also attest that Robby's rocks! I highly recommend them! read more

Jaime did a wonderful job fixing BOTH my overflowed bathtub and clogged dishwasher (two separate times!) He was able to fix both of my plumbing issues fast and efficiently. I highly recommend Robby's Rooter and especially Jaime. He is a fantastic plumber and knows what he is doing. Thank you again! read more

Jonathan came out to clear my shower drain with his snake. A job that takes say half an hour BUT mine took more than an hour ... and he was determined to find out what was stuck in there. From the moment he arrived, he was friendly, cheerful and most professional. He just couldn't get to the bottom of it all. So he decided to crawl under the apartment bldg and snake the sewer that was underneath the building ... for another 40 mins ... can you imagine being in a dark, dank crawl space for that length of time? And he's a big, young guy! I heard him yell "please turn the water on!" I turned it on and he yelled back "perfect" and crawled back out! Heavy rust was the culprit. He even changed his clothes when he came back in my apartment! I am so glad he didn't give up! I'd say he has a great career ahead of him as he displayed great customer service and certainly deserves not five but ten stars! ​Robby's Rooter - hang onto this young plumber! Well done! read more

Jaime is very professional and respected by time and space. He did an excellent job replacing the toilet and kitchen faucet. He even cleaned some gross junk out from under the kitchen sink - thanks for doing that. read more

I had two toilets in my guesthouse that were both clogged and wouldn't flush. Rudy came out after hours at 1030pm to fix the problem, and he was able to locate the issue as being a clogged main line going into the septic tank. Rudy was amazing, and was able to clear both lines almost immediately. I highly recommend Rudy and Robby's Rooter if you need assistance. read more

I don't give one star reviews but you'll see why. We've had lots of issues with gas in our apartment. The latest is we smelled gas whenever we used our oven, which is cause enough for concern, but on this particular day it also made a loud BOOM! a few minutes after being turned on. So we called the gas company and they said there's an obstruction in the line, there is not enough gas to light the stove so it builds up before ignition and it's dangerous so turn gas off and call plumber. Our landlord sends this company yet again and the plumber walks in and says "I don't know why you called the gas company, you should have just called us". Uh, maybe it's because our oven almost exploded? He looked and told us there was no obstruction and that gas meter needed to be replaced. Except that gas meter was replaced a year ago. And after that furnace, then hot water heater. So they just keep replacing appliances instead of actually fixing the problem, which is putting me and my family in danger. If you need a plumber my advice is to keep looking. read more

******* untrustworthy plumbers *********** this company's plumber (sergio) openly lied to his superiors about finding hair in my bathtub drain!!! i watched him personally in my apartment pull out nothing from the drain! this has taught me to make sure i video record any interaction & response they state they will pass on to landlords! i mentioned that i would not have to pay the tab if no hair was found according to my landlord, since then the company is telling me that the plumber found hair! i now have to pay $95 when nothing was found, all because sergio lied and said he found hair! not a smart way or trustworthy way to conduct business. read more

No problem with the quality of the work. The problem was with the cost of the job. They refused to break down the invoice e.g. parts and labor. The total was inordinately high and they provided no means of questioning the total. If you decide to go with them, a word to the wise, is get a firm estimate. Otherwise, you will never really know how they have determined the amount they are billing. read more

In October, this company came by to fix my friend's apartment sink. They were hired by the building management. I was at my friends place in the bathroom with the door closed & the only one in the apartment at the time. Then, I suddenly heard a knock on the bathroom door which freaked me out. Then the door open quickly opened as I was said "I am in here" and person kept trying to force the door so I slammed it on him, having no idea who he was or what he was doing in the apartment. I quickly got out of the bathroom and saw this man. I realized he was a worker. I asked him what he was doing in the apartment and he said in very broken English, something about the sink. I asked why he came into the bathroom though the door was shut and I yelled I was in there. He then got extremely rude, swore at me in Spanish and was irate. There is no way this was acceptable. As I told him, "you did not announce herself upon entering the apartment and you entered a bathroom that was occupied and I yelled I was in there." He continued to be rude and unprofessional. I asked for his supervisors information and he said I don't have to give it to you and I don't have to deal with you bitch and then he ran out of the apartment like a horrible coward. I WOULD NEVER USE THIS SERVICE and there is definitely something wrong with this guy! read more

Robby's Rooter - This is the creeper that barged into the bathroom, NEVER apologized, was extremely RUDE and refused to give me his supervisors information! - Plumbing Near Me - Los Angeles, California

After nearly a decade of using Robby's Rooter, we had the hot water line in our kitchen faucet give out and Robby's Rooter came out. We were told it would be $180 because it was a Saturday. Turns out we needed a new faucet, we went and purchased one ourselves and Robby's Rooter installed it. The plumber who fixed it would not take any money and said it would be the price they quoted: $180. We were leaving town and called them to see how much it was going to be so we could send them a check and were told it was now over $400, $320 labor for just the 35 minute sink install. We mailed them the amount but also enclosed a letter asking for an itemized receipt and expressing our displeasure at the jump in price for no reason. They cashed our check and we never heard from them (nor did they send us the receipt). We phoned them this afternoon, got a very belligerent woman on the phone who said nobody read the letter and nobody would respond and basically they can charge whatever they want and they do not care that we will never use them again. So, buyers beware, their customer service is the pits, they are overpriced and there are plenty of other rooter companies in town. read more

My first time calling them will be my last. I scheduled them between 2:30 and 5:00. At 5:30, I called, was placed on hold for five minutes. I hung up. They obviously don't need my business. read more

My plumber was fantastic and fixed everything quickly! Would recommend for all property managers!

Robby's Rooter came out today to check for 3 issues: toilet leak, squeeky kitchen faucet handle, and to check the drains to make sure nothing needed to be snaked. My service technician was Francisco. He arrived on time and worked fast. He said the drains were fine.... so he did not charge me for a service that was not needed. Toilet needed a new bottom seal, faucet just needed a new stem... total charge: $130. Great job, guys.... thank you! read more

Great Worker !! Ask For Manuel! read more

Today I called Robby's Rooter to repair my water pressure in my kitchen faucet. I was told I needed a new faucet. I am in no way complaining about the guy who showed up to repair our KITCHEN faucet today. I am very upset with the fact that i was charged $280. for a BATHROOM faucet to be installed in my kitchen. It clearly doesn't work properly!! I called to speak to someone and that's when the problem got even bigger. The woman who answered the call was rude, disrespectful, and actually had the nerve to mock me!!! The poor guy was so embarrassed. She couldn't even give me the actual price of the faucet and labor !! The faucet is $15-$25. on Amazon. I do t mind paying for the proper sink but come on people. She then told me that he gave me the quote before installing the faucet. I explained to her that it was shown to me in the box so I just assumed it was the right size... I mean they're the professionals right ?!? ‍ HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE I'm only giving one star for the sweet guy that came to help. These people are AWFUL & UNPROFESSIONAL !! Not to mention a complete RIP OFF !!! Maybe they should hire someone with people skills to conduct their business in the future! read more

I recommend Robby's Rooter to my clients because they provide more service during a sewer inspection than other plumbers/sewer inspectors I have come across. Most sewer inspectors put the camera in the line & if it is blocked they take it out & say "have someone rooter the line" (which is an extra cost). Robby's Rooter tries every possible solution including running water down the line, putting soap down the line to get the camera further & usually succeeds. They provide a DVD so you have a record of what was seen. If you need someone who can diagnose your plumbing problems & provide smart solutions, contact them. Robby's Rooter offers a better value and service for your money. read more
