My kitchen sink was backing up, when Johnny came to check it out, he asked where my clean out was located to try and save me some money. Turns out I did have a clean out, and he began running his snake unfortunately my kitchen line was never serviced, and their was a lot of Black gunk and grease in the line. He then recommended to do a Hydro jet, I was a little hesitant about it, So I contacted my husband and agreed to go ahead with the hydro jet since we had never serviced our kitchen line, and we did not want this issue to further continue. Our line was in really bad shape and the Hydro jet did not successfully fix the issue so then he contacted his specialist Mike. He explained to Mike step by step of what's going on, and was told about a descale device. My husband and I discussed what needed to be done, and we agreed and the descale worked and fixed our kitchen line. I highly recommend Rooter Gaurd for any of your plumbing needs. The technician was beyond professional, on time, and communicative. And before I forget the estimate I was given was very reasonable prices! I am so happy we contacted them for our kitchen line and everything is working just perfect! Thank you Rooter Guard ! I definitely will be contacting you guys for any other plumbing issues (hopefully this was it) read more

I want to thank Mike at Rooter Guard for always being so responsive, easy to communicate with, and patient with all my questions. He is the one I call when there's problem at midnight or if an issue needs to be escalated to a plumber I can count on. Last week he sent Vick to my house to work on a leak in our garage. Not only did he take time to carefully figure out the problem (and corrected the wrong diagnosis by another company), Vick is just such a joy to work with -- so courteous, so professional, and took great care to make sure he left the work area super clean. Thank you Mike and Vick! read more

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for any plumbing issue! After trying to address a clogged kitchen sink ourselves (for a couple days without success), we called Rooter Guard and was able to get a plumber over the SAME day. Oscar quickly identified the problem, diagnosed the problem, and fixed the issue! And to our surprise, we were only charged $59! (There is a $59 kitchen and bathroom plumbing repair special for service, and they honored it)! Thank you Oscar! FIVE STARS! read more

I cannot say enough good things about Rooter Guard and especially Izaiah!! He came out on a Sunday, was on time, personable and fixed the problem before the 1 one window was up!! I have turned to Rooter Guard for ALL my plumbing issues over the years and keep recommending ghem: -New sewer line -copper repiping -tankless installation -water filtration system The communication is great and everything about this company is professional! read more

This is my second MAJOR experience with Rooter Guard. This time my drain lines were comletely blocked and no amount of augering would create even a small opening through the blockage. So much for the $59 special -- even late at night! The next morning, Lead technician Oscar and supervisor Harry returned with a down-hole camera. Snaking the camera in through our main drain line showed a severe obstruction --- mainly tree roots. The camera had a transducer that allowed its location to be pinpointed. Harry used a receiver to find the camera and determine its depth. To my surprise, the location indicated that the house drain line went diagonally across our front yard, not directly to the city sewer main as I had thought based on the location of a clean-out opening. The camera showed that the pipe had deteriorated, as well as being infiltrated with roots. Harry explained to me my options, which I confirmed online. He told me the cost was $185/foot to repipe the line. I swallowed hard, but it had to be done. I already knew that the company was honest, cooperative, efficient and extremely competent. I agreed. Soon after, workmen began digging holes at strategic locations to access the clogged area and at a previously known access point. The exposed line was a material called "Orangeberg." It was used in construction during and for a few years subsequent to WWII because iron was in shot supply. It is rolled material made of wood pulp, asbestos, asphalt and bitumen (tar). Actually, it lasted far longer than its expected service life. When the clogged area was uncovered, the camera was used to locate the point at which our line joined the city sewer. A worker excavated a large hole at that point to an incredible 9 feet below surface in just one day! Repair of our drainange woes was by pulling a continuous length of a polymeric tube through the existing Orangeberg line, shattering it as the new material went. Hence, very expensife and time consuming trenching was not required. A hydraulic pulling device was used to pull the tube. The rate was about 1 ft/min, so most of the pipe installation job was done in under two hours. Then the crew installed pipe fittings and new access points. The next day, they returned to fill in the excavations. When they finished, the yard was level and compacted, no debris was left, and plantings had been restored, Since a continuous line was now installed, tree root invasion is a thing of the past. So is the concern about line collapse and corrosion or erosion of the inner surface. This process has added real value to our property. Rooter Guard personnel are expert, polite, competent, and work efficiently. Their response time is prompt. Their pricing is fair. I have no complaints and will contact no other companies when we need future services. read more

Johnny did such a great job looking at our sink. So friendly and amazing at explaining everything to us. He also saw us the day we called. Awesome plumber :) read more

they did what they say very honest and reliable I would recommend them to anyone the office manage was extremely polite

Our kitchen sink was backed up so we called this company last night, they gave us an appointment the next day. However, the "technician" wanted to descale my pipes without properly inspecting that my pipes were plastic; meaning if I would had said yes he would have really messed it up because an expert would know that you can only descale cast iron pipes. In addition, he called his supervisor and his supervisor also agreed that my pipes needed to be descale. Also, quoted $3,000 when typically this job at the most is $500. Do not use this company, they will take advantage of you if you know any better. read more

William L at Rooter Guard came very quickly on a Holiday and was able to clear our backed-up sink in less than 20 minutes. He was very professional and clearly explained our option. I would use them again. read more

My kitchen sink started leaking about a week ago. Rooter Guard of Valerio St in Van Nuys, CA was the first plumbing service I called . In a matter of minutes their Technician Specialist Jonathan was at my door to inspect the problem and give me an estimate of the scope of work to be done. He started work same day and inspected my bathroom drain line as well only to find out that additional work has to be done replacing my copper lines which had already broken. His Supervisor Boris came and explained the scope of the task. He was very professional as well and when everything was done a City Inspector came to see that everything's done right. Now I can be reassured that if I've future plumbing problems I can rely on Rooter Guard and recommend them as well to family and friends . I'm also covered with a 15 years warranty and the cost is very reasonable . Thanks a lot . Very satisfied customer : Rosalina C. Gardoce read more

This is a very good quality company. They handled my plumbing problem professionally, quickly for what they had to do.

Izaih is AMAZING!! Super prompt, professional and friendly. Fixed the problem immediately! The only one I will call from now on. A++++++++++++ read more

This company lies about the pricing and asked for $650 to begin work without even an inspection! He also wouldn't go under the house where we knew that the problem was. Today we hired a plumber from a different company, 2 hours later the job was done without breaking up the pavement. Don't use this company!! You'll be sorry. read more

Rooter Guard - This is bullshit! He just wanted to break up our pavement when the problem was under the house! He wanted to charge $650. Ridiculous - Plumbing Near Me - Sun Valley, California

This is the BEST Plumbing company I have ever encountered. Erik and his team have completed two jobs for our home and they have offered great quality work, professionalism and outstanding communication. The first time I worked with them, Erik arrived within 30 minutes after we called. That was very important since our main sewer line pipe broke so we needed someone to handle it immediately. The second time was to fix a broken exhaust pipe for our water heater. They were able to start work immediately and worked diligently to get the job done as soon as possible. I will be referring Erik and his team to all my friends if they have any plumbing needs. read more

Be prepared and know that no plumber will come out for $59 to clear out a clogged drain, such was my experience they tried to put the snake through with a 4 inch blade and I asked him to use a smaller blade based on the age of my plumbing they said they didn't have one, instead they suggested bringing in another person for another fee to run the camera and of course the camera only went 6 feet and $59 turned into $150 and then $1800 estimate without a guarantee that it would be fixed They then suggested replacing the entire piping at a cost of $12,000. During stressful times like these you can easily make wrong decisions. I Instead called another plumber they showed up with several root curing blade sizes. 40 min later and $75 it was cleared out. read more

Fast, communicative and great work. Erik is polite, transparent and knowledgeable. 10/10 recommend.

I had a kitchen sink backed up. William came out and diagnosed the situation. After he hydrojet the pipes I had doubts that it was cleared out. He did a quick drain test and convinced me that all is good now. Def recommend! read more

Wow!!! Amazing work on our complicated main line. Harry, Victor, Enrique and the team spent days removing a root infested, crumbling main line to the sewer that went down an extremely long driveway. The deep line was accessed, blasted out, and replaced PERFECTLY. They removed sections of our pressed concrete driveway with precision, installed the new line, and meticulously poured new patches, matching the concrete color and PERFECTLY placing the new clean out valves in the center tile. Their great, precise and professional work was noticed and hugely appreciated. The work passed the inspector with the city first time. The job site was always safe and tidy too. We would ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND this team to work on any home or project without hesitation. read more

I called Rooter Guard to discuss water heater maintenance and to learn how to flush my water heater. Johnny came out within an hour and explained that since my water heater is so old (14 years) if he flushes it, it might not turn back on. He recommended a new water heater and I feel like he was honest about my need for one. I also asked about our poor water pressure in the kitchen and Johnny was very knowledgeable about the possible causes as well. Overall, Johnny was very friendly, very patient and explained things in a way that didn't make me feel like an idiot. read more

William L came out to help with a clogged drain and did a wonderful job. He was on time, quick with service, professional and polite. I got his card so that I could specifically request him next time we need plumbing service. Rooter Guards prices are fair too! read more

William did an exceptional job today and we will definitely be using Rooter Guard again!

So grateful for the incredible service I received from Rooter Guard. I had a pretty serious leak in my home and these guys came right away. The leak investigator, Oscar, was such a pro, and so quick to identify, locate and repair the cause of the leak. I would highly recommend calling Rooter Guard for any and every plumbing issue. This team is simply the best and will deliver the most attentive, effective, and reliable service ever. Thank you so much for fixing the leak so quickly!!! We're so lucky your company exists! read more

Rooter Guard was simply the best service ever. These guys handle a huge plumbing task we needed fixed asap. They were at our house the same day we called and got to work. Every step of the way, they made sure to communicate and help us understand how to fix and maintain the plumbing in our house. Not only do they provide great service, but each technician had an incredible personality. They know you're going through a stressful situation and provide good company while getting the task done. They replaced 70ft of pipes in a couple days without a hiccup. I can't thank them enough for their incredible service and I'm glad to know that they are the best plumbing service in the area. Hands down the only people you should call to help you. read more

Hot water heater broke and my plumber Ernie came about an hour after I called. He was professional, kind, and quick. He did a great job and was done in only a few hours. Very easy to work with and did an excellent job read more

Had an emergency with a broken pipe on the side of my house. I called four different "emergency" plumbers, but only Rooter Guard responded. Izaiah came out and helped me get the water off. He explained what needed to be done and set up an appointment for the following morning. Ernie came in the morning right on time. He fixed what needed to be fixed and cleaned up. He was courteous and professional. I used to think that any plumbing company with the word rooter in its name would just be useful to unclog your drains. Rooter Guard is a full service provider. They did a great job and I would highly recommend them. read more

Replaced old metal pipes under house. Dug up and fixed pipes in front yard where tree roots had gotten in and created a blockage between house and city sewer line. Mike provided great oversight and expertise. Johnny was one of the most upbeat and hard working people I've come across. He also went the extra mile and cleaned out the u joint on a bathroom sink that had nothing to do with the problem he'd come to service. Great work. Thanks! read more

I cannot say enough great things about Rooter Guard, specifically Oscar who helped quickly fix our issue. He was extremely prompt, personable, and did such an excellent job with a smile on his face the entire time. Sincerely thank you, and we'll certainly be calling back if we need any plumbing issues in the future! read more

My sump pump failed. Johnny came out immediately- the same night! He was professional and incredibly nice. He called Mike in to advise and help out. They were at my property for 3 straight days working, on time, and efficiently. They did an amazing job fixing the issue. They kind and courteous. No BS; no hidden fees. Very honest. Tough to find great people, but these are the guys you want for any plumbing issues. They even helped me move everything that was blocking the tanks. That meant a lot. Thanks Johnny and Mike!!! read more

Professional, fast, straight to the point. Called this morning around 10am, they sent a tech by 3, and they were done by 4. Reasonable quotes ($30 less than other companies). They accept card/cash/check & receipt/invoice is sent by email. They also include a 30-day warranty. Can't ask for anything more, they got the job done & will be using their reliable services in the future! read more

If you ever need a Plumber on a SUNDAY, these would be the people I would call. I have a tankless water heater which decided to stop working this past Sunday and I called Rooter Guard. Emilio was at my house in 1/2 hour. The hot water lines were warm and I wasn't getting hot water so he crawled under the house to make sure there wasn't a break in a pipe. hole under the house he took pictures of a pipe that was bulging and could become a problem in the future. Emilio reset the water heater and then showed me how to reset it so I wouldn't need to call if it stopped working again. The charge was $75. On a Sunday! I'm pretty sure a plumber house call is a minimum of $150 and that's on a normal week day. Can't say enough about them. read more

WillIam was very professional and helpful. He finished my shower very fast. He exp to me what I need to do to finish my shower.

These guys are on top of their game! William went above and beyond and was very detailed in explaining to me exactly what I needed and got the problem fixed. It was late evening on mother days and we were having a plumbing emergency. When I stated my emergency these guys didn't hesitate and sent someone pretty quick to attend to my needs. You guys have gained a loyal customer. Thank you!! read more

Wow! Did I ever think I'd be writing a glowing review about a plumbing company that came out to fix a blocked shower drain but ended up repiping half our house? Nope...but: Our home is over 70 years old. After attempts with a snake, a hydroblaster and a camera, it was determined that the blockage that wouldn't budge was a result of build up in the old cast iron pipes (photos looked like the pipes were filled with concrete!), and after 10 feet of piping under the house was fixed, it wasn't possible to reconnect to the old pipes because they were so corroded and breaking so clearly it was time to repipe (newer part of the house was fine..) Vic was just wonderful. Arrived on time Saturday, did the diagnostics, Mike (supervisor) came that afternoon. They conferred with us, took pictures, we watched the camera hit the blockage. They brought a team Sunday morning, by Wednesday afternoon everything was working--not just the shower but the tub that had been draining slowly, the toilets that had become a little erratic too. The best was how easy it was to work with them. They were informative, extremely nice, got us very very good pricing, made absolutely certain we understood what was happening every step of the way. We can't recommend them highly enough!!! read more

William came late on a Sunday night to help us with our clogged sink and was very informative and professional. Although it turned out to be a bigger issue he came back promptly the next morning and again explained the whole process and finished earlier that estimated. Overall very pleased with his service. read more

I highly recommend going with Rooter Guard Plumbing. Starting off with the great customer service, they made me feel comfortable from the start.

Very happy with Rooter Guard and will definitely use them in the future. read more
