Top Rated Plumbers in San Bruno, California
Plumbing & Rooter Service
6748 Mission St Suite 607, Daly City, CA 94014, USA
(707) 384-8147I contacted Plumbing & Rooter Service on a Sunday evening because our kitchen sink was clogged and stuff was coming back up. They were able to come the next morning at 7am, right on time. Antonio and his worker were able to fix the oil clog in my kitchen drain after about 4 hours of snaking it. They diligently worked at it since the clog was pretty far down (we live in a condo building). He was also able to work with my building manager to make sure that they understood what the problem was. I can't recommend this plumbing service enough. Very happy with the result and how much the service costed.
9 months agoAntonio and his team helped me repair a disintegrated drain pipe from the bathroom sink. The pipe had corroded through, and the bathroom sink was unusable. From the get-go, Antonio was responsive and incredibly professional. He quickly scheduled time for the consultation, answered all of my questions, gave a competitive estimate, and quickly followed up. He also scoped potential issues that he may run into with the fix so I would be aware and could plan it out. When he began work, he made sure to consult with me before expanding any scope of work, and he and his team were very respectful and professional while I was working from home on meetings that day. I am very pleased with the work and craftsmanship of the output. I would absolutely work with him again.
4 years agoJose was able to come out on short notice to do a routine maintenance jetter procedure on the same day. Was a quick 2 hr job and saved me a lot of time down the line. Very professional and knowledgeable, competitively priced, will definitely call again for future service.
4 months agoHandy 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
3 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!!!
3 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.
5 months agoAdvanced Plumbing & Drain
3450 Sacramento St #204, San Francisco, CA 94118, USA
(415) 917-1088On Xmas day, the hot water faucet handle on my kitchen sink fell off and created a geyser. I called several plumbing companies who gave high consultation fees. Most weren’t available until the next day. Fortunately, I found Advanced Plumbing and Drain. Tim answered the phone and scheduled me for the next day between 7-8. Alex kept me updated as to his arrival time. I opened the door to a very friendly happy plumber who put us at ease. He was professional and knowledgeable. Alex did a quick fix at a fair price so that we could celebrate Christmas that day.
5 months agoWe had an issue late Sunday afternoon with our kitchen sink. We called their service, and they arrived promptly early Monday morning. The technician was knowledgeable, courteous, and thorough. He explained the problem and showed us how to prevent future issues: avoid putting too much food in the garbage disposal, and run hot water with detergent once a week to help prevent clogs. I highly recommend this company!
4 months agoI love this company! They are responsive, professional, and fairly priced. I’ve enjoyed working with Aaron on multiple projects—he is friendly, reliable, and takes the time to explain what he’s doing. After trying three different plumbing companies in SF that were more focused on selling me things than fixing problems, this was such a refreshing change! I finally have a go-to plumber I can trust!

4 months agoWaldir at ProRoto did a great job managing 2 big project for us- water main from house to sidewalk box, with back flow valve and replacing the last of our galvanized pipes and cast iron sewer line under the house.

Ask for Waldir to manage the work!
6 months 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.

4 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.
5 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.

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 agoDRAIN BUSTERS PLUMBING
5835 3rd St, San Francisco, CA 94124, USA
(415) 687-3566Drainbusters has been the go-to plumber for our condo building for years. Ray is always professional, quick to respond, and reasonably priced. When we recently had an issue connecting with the city water lines, he offered us multiple options to resolve and kept the work space in our garage tidy. Thanks again, Ray and team!
1 year agoThank you, Ray, for coming so quickly to fix the drain problems in our shower and at another time in our sinks. Thanks also for fixing a leaky pipe that caused our washing machine to flood the floor. With your immediate help we avoided a disaster!
1 year agoWe have had Ray and team come out a few times to help with plumbing issues within the past year - from a water heater replacement, leaking washer and dryer pipes that involved removing some drywall, and a major trench repair involving the city. Ray is very knowledgeable, thorough, and always provides updates. I highly recommend Ray's services!
1 year 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.
4 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 agoDiscount Plumbing Rooter Services
570 Sylvan St, Daly City, CA 94014, USA

3 months agoI couldn't be happier with the work of Carlos Chavarria! From the very first moment, his communication was flawless: he was very flexible, super clean, and attentive to every detail. He was incredibly professional, with a respectful attitude at all times. The result was simply outstanding: there is nothing he could improve, it was all perfect. I recommend Carlos without any doubt; he is a true professional and a talent. Thank you, Carlos, for a phenomenal job!! and Magda the dispatcher. Very professional and great communication.
3 months agoI had a great experience with Saul! He was very kind, helpful, and professional throughout the entire process.

3 months agoProfessional Drain Cleaning in San Bruno, California
San Bruno residents know that a clogged sink or a backed-up sewer line can happen at the worst possible moment—whether you're rushing to catch a flight at nearby SFO or heading out for a day at The Shops at Tanforan. Our service eliminates the frustration of calling plumber after plumber only to find they are booked up. We don't just provide a list; we actively scan our network of certified local experts to find those currently available in your exact neighborhood.
By filtering for your specific San Bruno zip code and calling professionals to verify their 24-hour availability before we connect you, we save you valuable time. Whether you are in the foggy Highlands, the sunny Crestmoor neighborhood, or down near El Camino Real, we find the professional who is ready to arrive at your door and clear your pipes immediately.
Common Drain Issues in San Bruno, California
Older Pipe Infrastructure: Many of San Bruno's mid-century homes feature original cast iron or clay pipes. Over the decades, these materials can corrode, scale, or collapse, leading to persistent clogs that a simple plunger cannot resolve.
Tree Root Intrusion: The mature trees that line San Bruno’s residential streets are beautiful, but their roots are drawn to the moisture in sewer lines. These roots can penetrate small cracks in the pipes, creating massive blockages that require professional augering or hydro-jetting.
Fats, Oils, and Grease (FOG): With San Bruno’s love for home cooking and local dining, grease buildup is a primary culprit for kitchen sink backups. When grease cools, it hardens inside the pipes, trapping other food particles and eventually stopping the flow of water entirely.
Hilly Terrain Challenges: For homes located in the western, more elevated parts of the city, drainage systems have to work against unique pressure and gravity issues. An expert familiar with San Bruno’s topography is essential to ensure your system is draining correctly and safely.
Seasonal Drain Maintenance Tips for San Bruno, California
Prepare for the Rainy Season: Before the Bay Area's winter rains arrive, clear your outdoor drains and area basins of fallen leaves and debris to prevent localized flooding around your home’s foundation.
Holiday Kitchen Care: If you're hosting guests for a meal, avoid putting fibrous vegetables (like celery or potato peels) or grease down the disposal. These are the leading causes of emergency calls during San Bruno's holiday season.
Fog and Moisture Maintenance: San Bruno's frequent fog can lead to excess moisture in crawl spaces. Periodically check your floor drains to ensure they are clear and that no mold or silt is blocking the drainage path.
Annual Video Inspection: For owners of older San Bruno properties, an annual or biennial sewer camera inspection can catch small root intrusions or pipe shifts before they turn into an expensive midnight emergency.
Average Drain Cleaning Costs in San Bruno, California
Pricing in San Bruno reflects the Bay Area's cost of living and high labor standards. Simple drain snaking typically falls on the lower end, while emergency after-hours service or advanced hydro-jetting will range toward the higher end.
