Top Rated Plumbers in Redwood City, California
Handy Plumbing Man, LLC
1011 American St, San Carlos, CA 94070, USA
(650) 899-649512/5/25 - Handy Man Plumbing helped me identify a clog in my sewer line with a thorough inspection. They gave me a competitive quote for installing a house clean out and cleaning the sewer line. The installation was done quickly and avoided messing up the yard. Highly recommended. 12/16/25 - Update. I decided to have Handy Man Plumbing replace my very old sewer lines under my house. Their quote was the most competitive. They kept our place clean during their work, sealing off our rooms from dust and covering the floors. They were very thorough, replacing all old GI pipes and even some old ABS pipes. While the scope of work was for "horizontal" pipe replacement, they did their best to replace as many "vertical" pipes that they could without opening any drywall (shower drains, toilet flanges). They also helped me repair some bad water supply pipes the noticed while doing their work. They didn't try to upsell me on trying to replace all my water supply lines, and with these repairs, said it should be good for a while. In all of this, they did not charge any additional fees for the extra work they did (i.e. needing to dig under two foundation walls, doing extra repairs, or needing an extra day of work). Highly recommended.
5 months agoMr Arturo Lopez was fantastic. He arrived on time with pre-arrival notification and tracking available. Arturo was knowledgeable, neat and efficient. He took the time to show me the repair and explain why it was needed. This was a two step process with technician Denis Orellana first diagnosing the issues and providing a quote. Once I accepted the quote and scheduled the service, Arturo Lopez arrived to make the necessary repairs. 100% trustworthy service by a two really nice guys. Thank you Denis, Arturo, and Handy Plumbing Man!
3 months agoJerry and Brayen were great - explained the issues clearly and compared short term vs long term options for the pipes in our home. It is also very convenient that you can book online and we were able to book an appointment for the very next morning. Will definitely use them again
2 months agoPeninsula Plumbing Solutions Inc
170 Glenn Way, San Carlos, CA 94070, USA
(650) 681-2290Alan came on time, introduced himself, and asked how he could help! After I explained the clogged drain line from the kitchen sink he asked to take a look. As he came inside the front door he put on cloth booties so as not to track in dirt or soil. And each time he went out he removed them and upon re- entering he put them back on! After looking he texted a job price and requested I approve the cost of repair, which I did. He brought in his tools and proceeded to promptly extract the material which was clogging the drain. He then made several tests to ensure adequate water flow down the drain, and to make sure the under the sink plumbing was not leaking. Success!!! Drain was flowing freely and no leaks were present. I was able to pay the agreed upon price by credit card on the spot and I immediately received an emailed receipt! Overall this was a very positive experience. I will not hesitate co use this service in the future if need arises!!!
2 months agoWas referred to Peninsula Plumbing Solutions by a good friend of mine who just used them to fix her clog toilet on a Saturday. She was extremely impressed with them. Our garbage disposal stopped working so I call PPS on Tuesday afternoon sent them a video of my garbage disposal. Within minutes they had a quote for work to be done. They said someone could be out next day, what time would work best for me. Perfect communication both by phone and text message, took my needs for time of arrival into consideration and arrived on time next morning. Hector was polite, professional got right to work removing the old disposal and replacing it with my new Insinkerator Disposal. Nora at the office handled my payment over the phone by credit card, informed that there is a 90 day workmanship guarantee on all work performed by the company! They are a new company located in Redwood City but work in the East Bay Area as well, which is where I reside. I highly recommend PPS for your plumbing needs and will happily refer them to friends and family. Thank you PPS, Nora, Mari & Hector Outstanding Job!
5 months agoGreat experience with Peninsula Plumbing Solutions. I had a leak and Hector came out and fixed it right away. He was professional, quick, and explained what he was doing. Highly recommend.
4 months agoDrain & Plumbing Solutions Llc
1130 Starbird Cir, San Jose, CA 95117, USA
(669) 500-6030Drain and Plumbing Solutions did an excellent job replacing my water heater and installing a thermal expansion tank. They were very thorough, professional, and took the time to answer all my questions. I'm very happy with the quality of work. I highly recommend them.
4 months agoElber, Sergio and their team replaced the main drain pipe under my house. They were able to replace it without excavating any concrete, and keeping the cost very low. They excavated only a tiny piece of soft soil, and burst the pipe under ground through that. Their team worked super fast, but with excellent quality - they passed the city of San Jose inspection with no issues. They are very friendly, explaining all the procedures and adjusting throughout the job to respond to what they find under ground. The team performed the leakage test, and replaced the irrigation and plants after they were done. I'm so happy with both the work and the results. Thank you so very much!
5 months agoElber has helped me with a slow draining laundry pipe a couple of times in the past by snaking it out. But this time, he recommended putting in a proper clean out as the previous owners did not put one in when they moved the laundry location. I was worried that the galvanized pips were going to be corroded due to the hard water that we have and asked if he could remove the galvanized pipes. Elber and Sergio scheduled the work and did exactly as requested. My metal pipes were very clogged up. The clean out was installed very professionally through the side of my house. I thought the price was fair and I would definitely recommend them to anyone who needs plumbing work.
4 months agoAll Panthers Plumbing Inc
261 Rome Pl, Hayward, CA 94544, USA
(510) 952-9570I called All Panthers Plumbing because of all the good reviews. I was not disappointed. I'm super relieved and happy with the work done by Cesar. He gave a reasonable price to fix our clogged kitchen sink and worked on it for hours until it cleared. I would definitely recommend him and will call him again for any future plumbing issues.
4 months agoCesar and his team did a great and clean job. They were able to come out the same day to provide me a quote and were able to schedule right away. I had some drainage issues because of some old cast iron plumbing I had and within a day they were able to replace the plumbing underneath my home and have it functioning like it should. Thanks again to Cesar and his team who were very professional. Would contact again.
12 months agoGustavo came to my house to fix an older model shower faucet that others told me couldn't be fixed & had to be entirely replaced, but Gustavo was able to repair it in a matter of minutes. Also he was attentive to a couple other leaks that he noticed and let me know about them, AND he helped me fix those and taught me how to maintain it in the future too. I had been wrapping all my threads with Teflon tape and he taught me better methods, when to use and when not to use the Teflon, etc. Great guy and great service. I learned a lot of things to do to care better for my house. Love that guy.
2 months agoEJ Plumbing & Water Heaters
1170 Martin Ave, Santa Clara, CA 95050, USA
(650) 835-7177I could not be happier with the HUGE job EJ Plumbing did for me. My slow shower drain turned out to be caused by disintegrated plumbing under my 70-year old house (tree roots came up when they snaked the drain, ugh). Jonathan was extremely helpful in diagnosing it, and supervisor Ryan Kennedy came right away to work out potential solutions to a very extensive and expensive problem. Ryan and Jonathan used a camera with a tracker to trace the issue through the lines. No perfect options with rotting plumbing under a slab. They listened to my priorities and we agreed on the best, least invasive solution. They came out promptly to start the job - a whole team digging through my brick walkway and front yard to replace the outdoor line, followed by cutting into my drywall to spray an epoxy liner through my indoor lines. They were extremely careful, hardworking and professional. Best of all, they took such incredible care putting everything back, including my yard, drywall and checkerboard brick walkway. Above and beyond!!! I am so impressed. Very very happy with EJ's honesty, reliability, professionalism, skill and even artistry. I had used them before for a small, simple job but this was a huge, difficult effort and I could not be more pleased. Thanks to Ryan, Jonathan, Ivan, Gerardo and the whole team at EJ for your excellent service!!!
4 months agoWe bought our tankless water heater from EJ Plumbing 2 years ago. And we had it serviced today for its annual maintenance. We've been loyal customers of EJ Plumbing. We love their prompt response, professionalism, clear communication and follow up. I have personally communicated with the company's owner, Danny, on numerous occasions and found him deeply committed to taking good care of his customers. Today's service was done by German who went above and beyond to make sure our water heater is fully serviced and as good as new.
5 months agoEJ plumbing was great! We called Monday late afternoon (for a non-urgent issue) and got an appointment with Luis the very next morning. After considering our options we decided to replace the toilet that we had issue with. We ordered a toilet from Lowe’s and had it delivered that same day. Luis came back on Wednesday and installed the new toilet for us. The whole installation took less than one hour and we are very happy with the result! Would definitely use EJ plumbing for future needs!
6 months agoQuality Plumbing & Drain Service
80 Morningside Dr, Daly City, CA 94015, USA
(415) 466-8440Highly recommend Drigo with Quality Plumbing and Drain Service. I have used him for a number of years for different issues. Snaking clogged pipes, water main project, , replacing pipes under the kitchen sink, replacing very old faucet handles and more......and feel very lucky to have found him. He does excellent work, is kind and patient. What more can you ask for.....and competitive in price.
1 year agoI contacted Quality Plumbing & Drain Service for a quote to replace a leaking water heater. Drigo was able to come that same day and provided a very competitive quote. During the consultation he thoroughly addressed my questions and concerns, clearly explained the scope of work needed, and made suggestions to correct a piping issue that was previously ignored when my old water heater was installed. He didn’t try to up-sell me or use sales-pitchy language – I did a lot of research on my own prior to receiving any quotes – so I was confident he was competent, and most importantly, straightforward and honest. Although a different company would’ve been able to replace my water heater that same day, I decided to move forward with Drigo despite having to wait a couple more days due to the holiday weekend. In the meantime, he provided excellent communication (via text) regarding the parts ordered and when he’d arrive for the job. On the day of installation, Drigo arrived on time and got right to work. When he was finished, he showed me how to turn on the pilot and gave me an overview about the heat settings. Throughout the process he was friendly, professional, and efficient. He even followed up with me later that evening to ensure everything was working properly. I’m very satisfied with the quality of work done and will be contacting him for all my future plumbing needs. I highly recommend Drigo and Quality Plumbing & Drain Service for your plumbing needs too.
3 years agoI have used Quality plumbing a couple times and Drigo has always been quick to respond and schedule a time to fix my drain issues. He is friendly, professional, and honest in the work needed to repair the problem and how to prevent issues in the future. Highly recommend!
3 years agoBG Plumbing
3520 Haven Ave St L, Redwood City, CA 94063, USA
(650) 481-5943Luis and team did an amazing job and got us out of an emergency where we had sewer back up. They came in on a short notice, identified the problem, found where the block was and worked through till ~9 pm to make sure that our washrooms start working, even though it started raining suddenly and kept raining while they were working. They were literally drenched till the end. Talk about work ethic!! Right from the start, the experience was amazing and professional. Luis patiently took multiple of my calls. He even did facetime and explained what a clean out looks like and helped me find if we have one already. From start to finish we could see that the team cares about the job, and is darn good at it. Thanks a lot guys!
5 months agoThis is the 2nd time I've used BG Plumbing, and again, they saved the day for me! Baldo sent Kevin out on his day off to help me out of a bind with my water heater. They were very accommodating of my schedule and worked around my needs. I am very grateful for their flexibility and expertise in fixing my water heater! I highly recommend them!
4 months agoVincent was very professional and efficient. Would recommend his service if anyone plumbing has any issues. I had a last min piping issue he cam at 9pm to help me get the job done. Really appreciate the service. Need more professionals like him. Thank you Vincent :)
4 months agoWizard Plumbing and Drain
2300 Palm Ave, San Mateo, CA 94403, USA
(650) 275-4988Exceptional service and an exceptional team!!! I lost hot water pressure and right away I knew something was wrong with my water heater. Since it was Sunday I had to email a few places and one of them was Wizard plumbing. Monday morning I got a few responses but Wizard plumbing was the quickest of them all and could dispatch someone urgently. Kevin arrived and identified that the water heater was leaking and needed to be replaced, after answering my many questions and making calls around to find the model I wanted. Shortly after Dino arrived and the pair not only replaced the water heater but also fabricated a custom pan to adhere to the current drain that was in place. They also replaced the leaky hot water valve as well as an automatic shut off valve. Throughout the whole time, they were curious, attentive, and thorough. They got the job done wonderfully and quickly within a few hours; this was exceptionally important as we have little kids. As they say, you get what you pay for and with Wizard plumbing, you get every Penny's worth. Don't just look for the cheapest but look for quality and Dino and Kevin are a great example of why that is the case. Thank you very much. A rockstar team for sure.
2 years agoMade an appointment three days prior, they took down all of my information and asked me a bunch of questions. The morning of the appointment, I get a text message saying they do not service my area and have to cancel. Why didn’t you tell me that three days ago when I made the appointment and gave you my address? Waste of time.
3 months agoI’ve lived in a house that was built in 1947 for 10 years. So I’ve had more than a few plumbers come through for various issues during that time. A termite inspector found a leak, so I panic-called the first result on Yelp (I don’t usually do that). Wizard Plumbing came through, assessed the situation, and gave me a number of options, each with associated costs. Not one to mess around with plumbing, I went with the most extensive & labor intensive option (and I’m glad I did; see pix). Out of all the plumbers I’ve done business with over the years, Wizard Plumbing proved to be — by far — the most honest, fair, competent, experienced and thorough. In fact, if I made a Venn diagram with all of those attributes for each of the plumbers I’ve done business with, Wizard would be the only one that made a perfect circle. They’ve definitely made a customer for life.
5 years agoDr. Drain Plumbing and Rooter
1043 Pinehurst Ct, Millbrae, CA 94030, USA
(650) 686-0757Dickson and his team were so great to work with. We were caught in a bind with a water pipe leak - they were onsite within 30 minutes and quickly assessed the project and provided a quote. They were transparent with pricing and any possible additional work that could be required. The Dr. Drain team were incredibly professional, straightforward and no-nonsense. An absolute pleasure to work with and would highly recommend.
5 months agoI got 3 bids. I am so glad I chose Dr Drain. They have fair pricing, and they are on-time, they explain the issue and gave a fair bid to fix it. They are courteous, helpful and fixed the my plumbing problem. I highly recommend them for all plumbing repairs. I will use them again.
3 months agoVery professional and thorough folks. I called them for a same day emergency leak under the sink and they arrived within the hour. They diagnosed the issue and had everything ready in the van. After addressing the issue, Dandy also fixed the RO system installation that had led to the issue. I’d highly recommend them for all plumbing and RO water installation needs.
4 months agoJK Plumbing
1008 Edwards Rd, Burlingame, CA 94010, USA
(415) 359-4588I recently had a spot repair done on my underground drain line, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. Tal and he’s team quickly diagnosed the exact location of the problem and explained everything clearly before beginning any work. They handled the excavation, repaired the damaged section of pipe, and made sure all connections were secure and up to code. Tal crew worked efficiently, kept the area clean, and restored the ground once the repair was complete. The drain is now flowing perfectly with no backups or issues. Their professionalism, fair pricing, and quality workmanship really stood out.
5 months agoWhen is the last time you had a plumber come out and diagnose your problem and not charge you? That just happened and I’m thrilled with the honesty and professionalism of Tal and his team. I’m very happy with their work and will be using them again!
3 months agoWe were on a bind and they came through. JK plumbing is a very responsible vernier. I have done business with JK for almost 20 years. I manage about 15 city own facilities and JK is being take care all my location. I will strong recommend this company for any plumbing need. Francisco Lira Impark Portfoluo Manager.

Common Drain Issues in Redwood City, California
Tree Root Intrusion: In older Redwood City neighborhoods like Mount Carmel and Edgewood Park, majestic mature trees are a local treasure, but their roots are notorious for seeking out moisture in aging clay or cast-iron sewer lines, leading to persistent and heavy-duty blockages.
Historic Home Plumbing: Many properties near the downtown corridor feature vintage plumbing systems that aren't designed for modern high-efficiency appliances. These older pipes are prone to grease buildup and mineral scaling, which require professional attention to clear without causing damage.
Storm Drain Overload: During the wet California winters, Redwood City's storm drains can become overwhelmed with silt and debris. If your perimeter drains or basement sump pumps aren't clear, you risk localized flooding during the heavy Bay Area rain cycles.
Redwood Shores Soil Movement: In the Redwood Shores area, the unique bay-side soil conditions can lead to minor ground shifts. This movement can sometimes cause 'bellies' or offsets in sewer lines, leading to frequent clogs that standard snaking can't permanently fix.
High-Tech Disposal Clogs: With the fast-paced lifestyle of Silicon Valley, many residents rely heavily on garbage disposals. We frequently see clogs caused by fibrous materials or coffee grounds that create 'fatbergs' deep within the kitchen drainage lines.
Seasonal Drain Maintenance Tips for Redwood City, California
Prepare for the Rainy Season: Before the first major Peninsula storms arrive in late autumn, ensure your outdoor area drains and gutters are cleared of fallen leaves and debris to prevent water from backing up into your foundation.
Spring Root Maintenance: As trees experience growth spurts in the spring, consider a preventative camera inspection of your main sewer line, especially if you live in the more wooded areas of Redwood City like Farm Hills.
Holiday Kitchen Care: With summer BBQs and winter holiday gatherings, your kitchen drains work overtime. Avoid pouring fats, oils, or grease down the sink, as these solidify quickly in the cooler pipes of the Bay Area.
Winter Pipe Insulation: While Redwood City rarely sees freezing temperatures, an occasional cold snap can stress older pipes. Insulate any exposed outdoor plumbing to prevent thermal expansion and potential leaks that can lead to drainage issues.
Average Drain Cleaning Costs in Redwood City, California
Pricing for drain cleaning in Redwood City is influenced by the high cost of living in the Bay Area and the specific technology required (like hydro-jetting or camera inspections). Basic clogs are on the lower end, while main line clearing or emergency after-hours calls typically fall on the higher end.

How quickly can you find a plumber in Redwood City for me?
Our service is designed for speed. We immediately scan our network of Redwood City pros, filter for your zip code, and call them to confirm they have a technician available to head to your home today.
Do you cover the Redwood Shores and Emerald Hills areas?
Yes. Our zip code filtering covers all of Redwood City, from the bay-side developments of Redwood Shores to the higher elevations of Emerald Hills and Woodside borders.
What if I have a plumbing emergency at 2:00 AM on a weekend?
We specialize in finding 24-hour availability. We will filter for plumbers who offer emergency services in Redwood City and call to confirm they are awake and ready to respond to your call immediately.
Are the plumbers in your network licensed for California code requirements?
Absolutely. We only work with certified plumbing professionals who are fully familiar with Redwood City building codes and California state regulations.
Why shouldn't I just use a chemical drain cleaner from the hardware store?
Many Redwood City homes have older pipes that can be corroded by harsh chemicals. Furthermore, chemicals often fail to clear the root intrusions common in our area. A professional cleaning is safer and much more effective for the long term.
