"i’m usually the type to “wait and see” if a plumbing issue fixes itself (spoiler: it never does), but this time i had to call someone. my shower was draining so slow that i basically had to step out into a mini pool every morning. i tried the usual stuff first… drain cleaner, hot water, even that little plastic drain snake thing. nothing worked. called brad’s plumbing in aromas and it was honestly a super smooth experience from start to finish. brad was friendly, didn’t talk down to me, and didn’t make me feel silly for trying to fix it myself first. he came out, checked everything, and quickly figured out where the clog was sitting. i expected this whole long annoying process, but he had the right tools and knocked it out pretty quick. the best part is that he didn’t just unclog it and leave — he explained what caused it (yeah… it was hair… embarrassing but true 😭) and gave me some simple advice to prevent it from getting that bad again. pricing was fair too, and there were no surprise charges. i’m keeping his number saved for sure. brad’s plumbing is legit."

not even kidding, i thought my whole morning was ruined. i woke up, made coffee, and literally five minutes later i noticed water spreading under the kitchen sink. you know that feeling where your brain goes “please don’t be what i think it is”… yeah. i’m in aromas, so i started calling around and most places either didn’t answer or were like “we can come in 3 days.” i found brad’s plumbing and honestly i’m so glad i did. brad picked up quick and was super chill on the phone, didn’t sound annoyed at all (which is nice because i was kinda panicking lol). he showed up on time and got straight to it, but in a calm way. he explained what was wrong in a way i could actually understand, and he didn’t try to make it sound like some huge expensive disaster. turns out it was a worn-out connection and a small valve issue. he fixed it faster than i expected, cleaned everything up, and even made sure there was no leftover moisture or anything. he also gave me a couple quick tips on what to watch out for next time. overall just super professional but also friendly. it didn’t feel awkward having someone in the house, which is honestly a big deal. if you’re in aromas and you need a plumber who actually shows up and does good work, brad’s plumbing is the move.

I've always been happy with the services done by Mario's plumbing, but this last time he went above and beyond what anyone else has ever done. He fixed the root of the problem that we were having with our septic system. Other plumbers have come in just cleared a blockage but didn't do anything more. It was the first time Mario had to deal with this problem and he fixed it so we won't have the blockage again which is wonderful. It is no fun having the contents of your septic tank come up into your tubs and showers and I've been experiencing it off and on for years. Thanks Mario for fixing the root of the problem. I highly recommend Mario's plumbing they've always been very professional, clean, polite and willing to come in an emergency.

Wow! Mario’s Plumbing deserves 10 stars! Quick responses in emergency situations (like multiple visits for hot water leaks under the house due to old pipes—finally had them repipe everything,) high quality repair work, clear price estimates, clear communication on next steps, they answered all my questions and they were timely, showed up when they said they would. Every staff member has high integrity and a quality-driven work ethic. I’m happy to pay them for high quality work ❤️ Note: If you have Fidelity Home Warranty and live near Hollister, Fidelity does not have any SJ plumbers who want jobs down here. Eventually Fidelity will approve you finding your own plumber, and Mario’s in Hollister will get the job done! Thanks Mario & Team!

Lujan’s Plumbing & Rooter was excellent to work with. Tim, the owner, is very patient and takes the time to clearly explain what he’s doing and why. He was thorough in diagnosing the issue and came fully prepared with all the right equipment to get the job done properly. He quickly cleared a clog and then used a camera to confirm the line was completely clear before finishing the job. Angela was also a pleasure to work with—very friendly, organized, and efficient. The whole process was smooth, and the payment process was simple and easy. If you’re looking for an honest, personable plumber with fair pricing, I highly recommend Lujan’s Plumbing & Rooter. I truly appreciate their professionalism and the quality of their work.

I am happy with Tim's excellent service for installing the Moen Flo Smart Water Monitor. He worked hard to meet my expectations and determine the cause of the issue with the outlet. Tim was very nice in replacing the drain valve on my water softener without charge. His good manners are a pleasure to work with.

Tim is the most humble plumber I’ve ever worked with on personal projects as well as contractor work. He showed up on a weekend removed 3 toilets to clear a clog and tried to charge me gas money since he couldn’t reach clog as the line was unaccessible.. Who does that .. Tim does he is a great guy and company he owns and runs is for sure a 1 stop shop for all your plumbing needs. He is punctual and very professional about all the work he does I’ve never met a cleaner plumber and still willing to get in the muck to make sure you don’t have too .. All around best rooter service I have ever had and rates are very reasonable consider you pay for what you get. Don’t call anyone else for your plumbing needs.

Called out to rod a drain. Charged $165 and drain is still clogged. Said would call back in a week with an estimate to repair a broken pipe. Useless service call - workers refused to move their rodding machine to the basement to complete the process. I have to buy a larger sewer rod and finish the job myself! Very unsatisfactory service.

We have a tankless water heater that stopped functioning and called Ernie's plumbing. They sent out a qualified tech that was specialized in our type of water heater. He advised us that it was initially plumbed in improperly and provided us with several options to correct the issue. I'd like to say I'm very satisfied with the staff at Ernie's Plumbing. I found them to be quite honest, professional, and they arrived on time. The job was completed and our water heater is working perfectly. I highly recommend this company.

A MUST READ. Thanksgiving evening 2024. Family in town. Water heater control module/ thermostat went out. No hot water! I called Ernies. New customer. A technician named Mario called me back and immediately tried to upsell me a new water heater. I told him mine is only 4 years old and I just needed the thermostat module replaced. He said, "no one has that part" and I could "contact the manufacturer and check if it's under warranty and if so, the part would take several working days to arrive and I could call him to come install it or, if I dont want to wait and want hot water now, they have water heaters." In the end, I found another local technician (Reilly's Plumbing) that listened to my issue, had the part, came over, shook my hand, and replaced it on the spot Thanksgiving night. Astounding! Some people care less about honest, good business and reputation than they do about money. A story more and more familiar in today's world I'm afraid. Sadly. Bottomline, yall look elsewhere. Don't be fooled. Goodluck.

I’m very thankful to have come across Avila Plumbing & Heating. They responded to my after-hours inquiry within ten minutes and had me scheduled for the very next day. They arrived on time and took the time to listen carefully to my concerns about a possible water leak that was causing my pressure booster to cycle every few minutes. After thoroughly assessing the plumbing lines under my house, they identified two small leaks in a pipe supplying a hose bib. The faulty piping and hose bib were quickly replaced, and the issue was completely resolved. I highly recommend Avila Plumbing & Heating. Cayetano Avila was professional, knowledgeable, polite, and his rates were very reasonable. I will absolutely be contacting them again for any future plumbing needs.

I recently needed a new gas line installed, and Cayetano was quick to come out and take a look. He clearly explained the whole process and gave us a free estimate on the spot. Throughout the project, Cayetano and his team were always on time, very respectful, and incredibly efficient. What stood out the most was the communication. He kept us updated every step of the way, which made us feel completely at ease and confident in the work being done. I 100% recommend him to anyone needing plumbing services. Cayetano and his team truly did an amazing job; colormatch was spot on as well. I am beyond satisfied with the results. Thank you again!!!

Ramiro really cares about your concerns and shows you what is happening as he goes along. He was able to repipe our 70+ year old home in one day. During the inspection phase he found some serious blow outs in our iron sewer pipes. The following week he replaced our sewer pipes as well.

I chose the Advanced Repipe Specialist for one of the most difficult home improvement projects in my mind --- repiping the whole home. I needed a team of true professionals and Advanced Repipe pulled it off. Ramiro and his team were easy to work with. I had a very positive experience from the beginning. Ramiro came to my home on time for the first consultation and gave a detailed presentation to help me understand my options. He provided an accurate estimated cost, which was exactly what I paid for at the end. Their price might not be the lowest, but they were transparent about the materials and costs. I felt confident picking Advanced Repipe out of a pool of contractors. Ramiro's team was well trained and had great attention to details -- most importantly, they did all the work with the current city codes in mind. They completed the project on time with great results. They patiently answered my questions and addressed my concerns during the final walkthrough. The patching work was also done nicely -- which eased the pain from all the holes cut open for re-piping, Overall, it was an easy five star. The team earned it with hard work and superb quality.

Highly recommend Ramiro and his team! Ramiro was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and listened carefully to all of our needs. Junior and his crew came out, worked extremely hard, and provided top-notch service. Everyone who came out were very friendly, kept everything very clean while they worked, and gave us confidence that they were professional and knew what they were doing. Everything was explained to us in detail, done to perfection, and all with a smile. Veronica communicated with us the entire way. Prices very reasonable and everything exactly on budget and on time. We will definitely use them in the future. Thanks Advanced Repipe Specialist!

Verify Availability Before You Call

Professional Drain Cleaning in Hollister, California

Hollister residents know that whether you are living in a historic home near downtown or a newer development toward the foothills, a clogged drain can bring your day to a grinding halt. The unique geography of San Benito County, combined with the city's mix of aging infrastructure and rapid growth, means that plumbing issues are often more complex than a simple DIY fix.

Our service takes the guesswork out of finding reliable help in Hollister. We maintain a network of the city's top-rated, certified plumbers and utilize a rigorous zip-code filtering process. Instead of you spending your afternoon calling down a list of 15 different companies only to find they are fully booked, we do the legwork. We call the plumbers first to verify their 24-hour availability and confirm they can solve your specific drain issue today.

Common Drain Issues in Hollister, California

Hard Water Mineral Buildup: Hollister is known for having relatively hard water. Over time, calcium and magnesium deposits create a thick scale inside your pipes, which acts like a magnet for hair and soap scum, leading to stubborn, recurring clogs that require professional descaling.

Agricultural Silt and Debris: Being surrounded by Hollister's rich agricultural lands, outdoor area drains often become impacted by fine silt and soil. During the rainy season, this debris can wash into your drainage system, causing significant backups that can threaten your home's foundation.

Aging Sewer Laterals: In many of Hollister’s established neighborhoods, older clay or cast-iron sewer pipes are common. These pipes are highly susceptible to root intrusion from mature trees and seismic shifts, often resulting in full main line blockages that require a professional camera inspection.

Modern High-Density Clogs: In the newer residential areas of Hollister, high-volume kitchen use often leads to grease and organic waste buildup in the pipes. These 'fatbergs' can be difficult to clear with standard hardware-store tools and often require high-pressure hydro-jetting to fully restore flow.

Seasonal Drain Maintenance Tips for Hollister, California

Prep for Winter Rains: Before the San Benito County rainy season begins, clear your yard drains of any summer dust and fallen leaves. This prevents localized flooding around your Hollister property during heavy Pacific storms.

Spring Root Growth: As trees wake up in the spring, their roots seek out the moisture in your sewer lines. We recommend a preventative camera inspection in April or May to catch small root intrusions before they become emergency backups.

Summer Irrigation Maintenance: With Hollister's dry summers, irrigation systems run at full capacity. Ensure your landscape drainage is clear to prevent stagnant water, which can damage your lawn and attract pests.

Holiday Drain Protection: During the festive season, avoid putting greasy scraps or fibrous vegetables down your Hollister home's garbage disposal. The extra strain of holiday cooking is the most common cause of emergency plumbing calls in December.

Average Drain Cleaning Costs in Hollister, California

$185-$475

Costs in Hollister generally depend on the severity of the clog and the equipment needed. A basic snake service is on the lower end, while advanced hydro-jetting or emergency after-hours calls represent the higher end of the range.

Frequently Asked Questions about Drain Cleaning in Hollister, California

How quickly can a plumber arrive at my Hollister home?

Because we filter by your specific zip code and call to verify availability first, many Hollister residents see a technician arrive within 2 to 4 hours of their initial request.

Do you find plumbers who can handle emergency 24-hour drain cleaning?

Yes. We specifically scan our Hollister network for 24-hour service providers and call them to ensure they have an on-call technician ready to head to your location immediately.

Why do my drains in Hollister keep clogging even after I use liquid cleaner?

Hollister's hard water creates mineral scale that liquid cleaners can't dissolve. This scale creates a rough surface that catches debris. A professional plumber can use mechanical tools or hydro-jetting to clear the pipe completely.

Can you find a plumber near the San Benito High School area?

Absolutely. Our zip-code filtering covers all of Hollister, including the historic downtown areas, the Sunnyslope region, and the newer developments near the airport.

What is the most effective way to clear roots from Hollister sewer lines?

For the older pipes common in Hollister, hydro-jetting is usually the most effective method. It uses high-pressure water to blast away roots and scale without damaging the integrity of the pipes.
