Expert Drain Cleaning in San Leandro, CA

12/5/25 - 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.

Mr 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!

Jerry 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

Alan 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!!!

Was 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!

Great 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.

I 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.

Cesar 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.

Gustavo 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.

We were paired with Rudy and Oscar from Superior Plumbing through our home warranty company, and I couldn’t be more grateful. From start to finish, they were professional, courteous, and exceptionally thorough. True experts who take pride in their work and deliver outstanding results. A previous plumber had written our issue off as unfixable, but Rudy and Oscar approached it with patience, skill, and determination. The other plumber hadn’t even attempted to remove the cast iron pipe cap, but they recognized that was the key to gaining proper access to the line. It was extremely stuck, yet they had the right tools, expertise, and persistence to get it open and fully unclog the drain. They communicated clearly, respected our home, cleaned up afterward, and ensured everything was functioning properly before leaving. They also took the time to explain what had caused the issue and offered practical advice on how to help prevent it in the future . They never asked for a review or tried to upsell us on additional services — their only focus was resolving the problem correctly and completely. As new homeowners, we’re incredibly grateful for their professionalism and integrity. We will absolutely be rehiring Superior Plumbing (and specifically Rudy and Oscar) for any future plumbing needs. If I could give them more than five stars, I absolutely would.

Marco and Santos installed 4 new toilets. They did a fabulous job and left no mess, they even took the boxes that the new toilets came in and hauled away the old toilets. They were very professional and extremely nice. I will definitely be keeping their number for all my future plumbing needs. Also I had them install 4 new toilet shut-off valves. Highly recommend using these plumbers.

It was a long drawn out process due to having to navigate inside the shower wall with all new parts. A cover plate was too small to cover the hole... that piece alone took over 2 months to receive. Three appointments later the job was done immaculately. Jose is a "Keeper for always!" The install became a whole day process, and not once did I hear frustration or agitation. He explained the alternate option and answered my questions and concerns. A genuinely excellent plumber with patience. The staff in the office always worked with my schedule and were professional and friendly with the reschedules. The pricing increased one time due to the extra work. I couldn't ask for more. Superior Plumbing is in my contacts for good!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Five-Star Service I recently had the pleasure of having Mark Berant service the shower drain in my apartment, and the experience was outstanding from start to finish. Mark arrived fully prepared, immediately understood the issue, and completed the job efficiently and with great professionalism. A little background—Mark is actually one of our lead technicians in the company, and after seeing his work firsthand, I now understand why he is considered one of the very best. His skill, confidence, and dedication truly stand out, and it’s clear why so many customers have appreciated him throughout his successful career. Mark, thank you for the exceptional service. Your work ethic and professionalism continue to inspire others to follow the path you’ve taken. You absolutely rock. — J, your humble fan

Mark B. with Arch Plumbing Inc. was professional, knowledgeable and very helpful. He was polite and very gracious when I called to confirm the appointment and showed up on time. It was clear from the moment he enter the property and examined the boiler, the water storage tank, drainage system and a few other plumbing- related systems, that he knew what he was doing. He identified where there was an immediate need for service, and where things could wait if there are budgetary constraints. I felt that he was transparent and helpful- great reflection on his company, Arch Plumbing. During the walk- thru of the property, he patiently answered all my questions. I never felt that Mark was impatient, rude and even transactional. Mark is truly a great representative of Arch Plumbing. Clearly the company’s value is to provide quality work and great customer service as evidenced in their dispatch of Mark who definitely adhere to these values!

Arch has been servicing my building for years. First with a new water heater, which required the old heater to be sawed in half to make it down the stairwell. They are resourceful, creative and have a can do attitude. My point person, June, helped initiate an emergency issue. Mark and Clarice came and serviced us with replacing a corroded pipe, installing a new expansion tank and backflow components. Could not have been nicer and very efficient. June followed up to ensure the work was completed as discussed. Plumbing is expensive but their prices seem reasonable compared to others in the city and their attention to detail, service and follow up makes it worth it. Thank you!

Capelli Plumbing takes all the stars. Very good communication and also on time. The technician has a lot of experience under his belt and he is very knowledgeable and provided his professional service. He was able to unclog my shower drain and he went one step further to make sure there were no other problems. Thumbs up. Highly recommend Capelli for plumbing services

Capelli Plumbing has been my go to for years. Recently, I needed a new garbage disposal and was having electrical problems with the old unit. James promptly scheduled the job for the next day even though it was not an emergency. Edward did an efficient job installing the unit. My house has older wiring issues and they had one of their members (Alex) come and help rewire the unit to fix the electrical issue. They were able to quickly purchase the needed parts and accomplish the job in under an hour. Great work, quick communication and friendly service!

The 2nd time I have used this company and both times the service was excellent. They were efficient and personable the 1st time and exactly the same this 2nd time. Our tech was Jessie who took his time and was very thorough. He didn’t leave until the job was complete. CAPELLI Plumbing better hang on to this young man👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Drainbusters 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!

Thank 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!

We 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!

Exceptional 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.

Made 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.

I’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.

Dickson 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.

I 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.

Very 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.

I don’t usually leave reviews, but Hydro Plumbing & Rooter really earned this one. I had a backed-up drain that two other plumbers couldn’t fix. A friend recommended Hydro Plumbing, and I’m so glad I called them. From the first call, they were professional and easy to deal with. The dispatcher gave me a same-day appointment, and the tech showed up right on time. He explained everything before starting, used a hydro-jet to clean out the line, and even showed me a video of the inside of the pipe when he was done. The water was flowing perfectly again. What really stood out to me was how respectful and clean they were. No mess, no guessing, no surprises when it came time to pay. The price was fair, and they actually cared about doing the job right. If you’re looking for a reliable hydro plumbing company that knows what they’re doing, Hydro Plumbing & Rooter is the one to call. I’ll definitely use them again for future plumbing work.

Hydro Plumbing was very thorough and knowledgable. They have all the equipment needed to solve any problem you might have. The hydrojet was not unavailable at 4:30, They returned at 7pm to finish my job, and got our plumbing functional. Great team!

This is my first experience with this company and im very satisfied. They are responsive, competitive, and will make sure youre taken care of. Jose is a very experienced plumber and is honest and reliable. He can usually get out the same day and has the experience and skills to figure out whats going on and fix it. I will definately use them in the future.
