Best plumbers in Oakland!…read more I had a low water pressure problem in my kitchen and an issue with my dishwasher. I couldn't tell if the problem was the plumbing or if I needed a new dishwasher. Enter Oakland Rooter & Plumbing. Jose, the plumber that came to service my kitchen plumbing, was kind, professional and very skillful. He explained how he was diagnosing the situation and the process of elimination he was going through to get to the bottom of the issue. I especially appreciated that as a woman that loves learning about how things work. Jose answered all my questions and had some great analogies to explain the plumbing situation. I also appreciated that there was no upselling. Jose was clear about the tiers of support and associated costs and was honest about his recommendations and what would help. In the end, my plumbing issues were resolved at a reasonable price. I felt like I got five star service AND I learned a bit about how my kitchen plumbing works. Great service all around!

Got good, fair ballpark quote over the phone from Alex, so knew what to expect. Got appmt scheduled for that afternoon with Brian (tech) to come check out our issue.

Alex sent our technician, Rojo, who helped install a new 40-gallon gas water heater in our indoor utility closet, and he was incredibly diligent, professional, and efficient from start to finish. Installing a tank in an inside closet can be tricky, but Rojo handled the entire job seamlessly in just 2 hours. He replaced everything with high-quality components, including: * New hot and cold water flex lines * A brand new water shut-off valve * A new gas flex line and sediment trap * Fully reworked earthquake straps (to meet California safety codes) * Properly updated T&P line and venting He also took care of the removal and disposal of our heavy 18 yr old tank, leaving the utility closet completely clean. If you want fair pricing, expert specialized service, and a technician who respects your time and home, call Water Heater Masters and ask for Rojo. Highly recommended!

When Fernando arrived I let him know it was worse than I originally explained. I took the metal cover off the dishwasher back up and it slipped unknowingly into the drain. Needless to say it was lodged into the garbage disposal. Within an hour of the horror I created everything was back to normal. These folks saved me. I won't hesitate to call them in the future. Thank you so much.

A great reliable neighbor is hard to come by so when I moved into my new place and broke my sink, I knew I could reach out to Ed! He immediately looked into his resources for the best option for my exact model of a sink, and put me on his calendar right away. I also told him there may be something wrong with my garbage disposal, which she brought over one in case before checking it out. When he arrived right on time, he carried my brand new sink up to the 3rd floor, and spent no more than an hour installing my new sink. This includes cleaning up everything! He even got rid of my old broken one! I'm so glad he brought me a new garbage disposal because it was time that I needed a replacement. That mean I was able to get 2 jobs done in one visit instead of having him come back. Everything went smoothly, and so much of my stressed was lifted, and you really can't put a price tag on that. I've always appreciated you, Ed! Thank yo so much!!!!

You can tell that Hakim really knows what he's doing! The water heater replacement job was completed quickly and professionally, and they cleaned up everything afterwards.

They were the most competitively priced, easy to schedule, showed up on time, and were incredibly friendly. The installation process was smooth and professional--couldn't have asked for a better experience. Fast forward three years, and we suddenly weren't getting hot water. The only Rinnai approved plumber for servicing in our area came out and couldn't figure out the issue, which was frustrating. I called Hakim directly, and he came out the very next day and resolved the problem. His level of service was truly outstanding--knowledgeable, responsive, and great to work with. I'll definitely be a repeat customer and highly recommend them.

Called Jim around 12 and told me they would send someone out today. Sal arrived around 5 and I told him it could wait until tomorrow but he wanted to get to work. The dishwasher drain hose was an easy fix. Sal showed us the old hose clogged with gunk. Works like a charm now. The refrigerator line was another matter. Because my house if nearly 40 years old, the water valve are different now. Sal made a trip to local hardware stores (at 7pm!) but couldn't find the right part. So we had to reschedule for Saturday. Sal showed up right on time and got to work replacing the valve. He had to open up the wall. He replaced the valve and works great. Sal was real friendly and explained everything he was doing. Top quality work with a 1 year guarantee. Would definitely use them again.
