Tony was so helpful and thorough. They did excellent work and went above and beyond expectation. Molly C read more

I called the company that offered trenchless sewer lateral with the highest rating and over 1,000 reviews. They were ready to send someone out to inspect and write a quote until I told him that we lived in San Leandro. Apparently, the City of San Leandro Permit process is not as user friendly as some other cities. I've heard that before from other contractors. Not because the inspectors are rude or demanding but because there's simply not enough of them and that slows down the process of starting and completing jobs. The person that I was talking to on the phone suggested that I called Beyond Plumbing. While their review count is very low, their score is very high. With nothing to lose, I called and left a message. We had a few conversations on the phone, met at the house, talked about the scope of the work. He arranged for another company to come out and clean out the sewer lateral to the sewer so a camera could get an accurate picture of what we were actually dealing with. That done, he offered two quotes. One based on straightforward replacement without complications. One with some trenching in the street if necessary to complete the job. Once we agreed, he called out PGE and others to come mark their underground utilities. This past Tuesday, I received an email with a couple of documents to sign for the city. Once signed and returned, we were scheduled to begin work at 9am on Thursday morning. Signage was placed on the sidewalk to restrict parking on Wednesday. The crew arrived on time Thursday and began their tasks. They came en masse in two vans, a pick-up and two larger trucks, one pulling a medium back-hoe. With two guys working as flaggers, they proceeded to do their thing. In order to maintain our sanity, we checked with them and then left, returning Thursday afternoon around 5:30pm. All the signs were gone. There was a metal plate in the middle of the street. I had received a text around 12:30 telling me they'd be done around midday and the only thing left to do was final inspection. That is dependent on the City Inspector. After inspection, the plate will be removed and the street patched. In the meantime, the connection to the sewer has been completed and we wash clothes, dishes and shower as desired. We are very happy with the service that we've received and the work that's been done. The pricing was fair and within the range that we had expected. Good job! Thank you Marco and crew! read more

Thank you so much Tony and the crew! Lorenzo was so nice and did an amazing job! Can't say enough good things about this business! Wish I could give them 100 stars Sewer lateral done and passed inspection! Clean up and finish was wonderful. Very good pricing. Call them you won't be disappointed! read more

Tony offered great service and very reasonable prices for our sewer lateral replacement. He communicated well throughout and everyone who worked on the job was kind and considerate. Highly recommend! read more

We live in the Oakland Hills, and what started as a "small" sewer leak (that we were going to repair ourselves, HA!) quickly turned into a total replacement of both our sewer AND water lines. Both lines are about 175' down a steep slope, but Beyond Plumbing handled everything smoothly and professionally, explaining everything that they would be doing, why they were doing it, and how much it would cost. Not only can you count on BP to do the job well, they are pro's at dealing with Oakland inspectors (many plumbers won't ever work here); they were also polite and communicative with our neighbors about digging up the road and the disruption that comes with putting in a new sewer lateral... Marco and Tony are the real deal, we were extremely satisfied with their work. The price was fair, too. read more

Tony has helped me on two different projects and each time he has been exceptional to work with. His whole crew is wonderful -- I can't recommend them more highly. Incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, trustworthy, and efficient. And, they're just a pleasure to work with! read more

My neighbor actually found Beyond Plumbing, Inc. In order to get his remodeling project signed off, my neighbor was forced to do his sewer lateral. Turned out that our sewer pipes were joined under MY driveway. So, I was forced to do mine also. On one hand I could have been totally pissed, but then I felt like I need to get mine done anyway. Fortunately, I had enough money to pay for it. What would I have done if I didn't? This ended up being a complicated job. They thought they were doing one regular sewer lateral and then they find that they have to do 2. Can you imagine having that kind of wrench thrown into the works? They had to pull another permit. This is really hard work. Lorenzo mostly worked with one other guy. Some times there were one or 2 others. They worked like a well oiled machine. Very efficient. As per normal in any construction project, any delays were caused by the permitting process. Tony (the manager?) was very responsive and answered all of my questions. They had to put my driveway back together and they did a beautiful job. The clean up was above and beyond. My neighbor did a really good job in choosing Beyond Plumbing, Inc. I totally recommend them for your sewer needs. read more

Tony and his crew work fast and hard to complete the job of using trenchless methods running new pipes from the house to the street. They had to dig up the street to replace broken sewer pipes and fill in the trench and repave the road. I HIGHLY recommend them. read more

Beyond plumbing are truly GREAT! We recently purchased our home and had a quote in our paperwork for our sewer lateral replacement from Beyond Plumbing. After having a horrible experience with another company, I decided to give Beyond plumbing a try. Before I called, I decided to check their reputation on YELP. The reviews were decent and so I decided to contact them. Our first interaction was very positive. Tony responded and set up a time for one of his techs to come out immediately. Luis showed up on time and ready to resolve our issue. He thoroughly examined the issue and came up with a plan. A couple hours later, the issue was resolved and he provided recommendations for follow up. We later called them back to address another issue (The joys of home ownership) and yet again, they came out, fixed the issue, and charged us a fair price! After a couple months later, we were ready to address our Sewer Lateral. Of course, the timing coincided with this awful COVID-19 outbreak. Since we were fast approaching our EBMUD expiration for our PSL replacement we had to move forward. The most recent interaction was yet again EXTREMELY positive with Beyond. Tony and Miguel responded quickly to our inquiry about the Sewer Lateral quote and set up a time to come out. We signed and sent back our quote and anxiously awaited the appt. scheduling. Despite their busy schedule, Miguel contacted us with a date for replacement and explained the timing of the project. The techs showed up, did the work over a two-day period, coordinated the EBMUD inspection and sign off and wrapped up the project in a blink of an eye. This was the most efficient, effortless and professional experience and it was all due to Beyond Plumbing. Words cannot express our thanks and appreciation for their professionalism. We have our plumber and we are happy to have discovered this amazing group. I will spare you the photos :) read more

Tony and his team are great. I highly recommend him for sewer lateral replacement and other complex plumbing issues. What a great find. Best price and service. read more

Miguel and Tony at Beyond Plumbing were BEYOND great to us. So I had our sewer lateral start to leak. I tried myself to dig up and repair but needless to say I was in over my head. I called about 10 companies for bids on the job. I had about 5 people come out to give me estimates, Miguel spent a good amount of time at my house, assessing our sewer issues, as most other companies just wanted to come in and repair the problem I had already dug up. We ended up going with Beyond Plumbing because their bid was comparable to the other companies we had out and BEYOND PLUMBING was dealing with all my sewer lateral issues not just the glaring issue. The best part is they installed two additional clean outs, we got EBMUD certified, they laid fresh concrete where they had to break out for the Trenchless machine, and left the job site cleaner than they found it. Like I said, nothing but great results with Tony and Miguel at Beyond Plumbing. I'd recommend them to anyone looking to get the sewer lateral done! Thanks again. read more

Beyond Plumbing - Plumbing Near Me

See all

I mean I don't know what else to say, the name speaks for itself. Exceeded my expectations. they went above and beyond. The best plumbing experience I've ever had. They came out on time, one time and changed the game. Previous plumbers have made multiple trips and did not resolve previous issues. They identified the problem and fixed it immediately. They are the Beyonce of Bay area plumbing. read more

We hired beyond plumbing for our Private Sewer Lateral inspection. We had a few quotes and inspections from different plumbing companies all saying that the system needed replacing and that it would cost us at least $11K to replace the system and pas the test. These guys inspected our system and assured us that most likely and in their expert opinion the system would pass as it didn't look that old. And they were correct!! They did all the work and arranged for the inspection and it past! They were really honest guys and got the job done for a fraction of the price. We are so extremely grateful for their work, honesty and the fact that we past, saving us many thousands of dollars! They are also very friendly and punctual! read more

Before choosing a company to replace my sewer lateral, I researched 20+ options on Yelp and had 3 of them come out and give estimates. Of all the plumbers I interacted with, Beyond Plumbing was the best by far, and they lived up to this throughout the whole process. Miguel, Tony, and the whole crew were polite, professional, punctual, and very easy to communicate with. Miguel always answered his cell and knew exactly who I was and what the status of my job was. Even when some underground surprises were discovered, they got the job done on time and without tacking-on any surprise charges. They handled the inspectors smoothly and gave me confidence that it would pass the tests without a problem. Great company!! Thank you, guys! read more

Beyond Plumbing is one of the most honest and caring businesses in Oakland. I have used them 3 times since 2017 from Sewer Lateral to general plumbing handyman work, each experience has been nothing but terrific. Prices are competitive, quality is exceptional, and they really go above and beyond with consideration! A true staple to the Oakland Alameda county. read more

I would give Tony and his company Beyond Plumbing 10 stars if I could. Tony is knowledgable, courteous, professional, and responsive. We had an emergency and needed the sewer line from our house to the street replaced ASAP. Tony responded promptly, scheduled an appointment with us that same day, then provided an estimate - as promised - the next day. He obtained the necessary permits and his crew completed the job quickly and professionally. He kept us informed throughout the process. We're so grateful to Tony and Beyond Plumbing. We absolutely recommend them! read more

Tony is absolutely the best plumber I have ever dealt with. He is extremely knowledgeable and EBMUD inspectors know and work well with him. He is one of the plumbers that they really trust when doing inspections. I am very grateful that I met him. He even took the time to speak on the phone with the EBMUD inspector when there were questions about my exempt sewer lateral when I sold my house. I would absolutely call him again for any plumbing needs I have in the future. read more

This is the third house over the last few years where Beyond Plumbing has handled the sewer lateral. I've gotten bids from realtor recommended plumbers that were never competitive with Beyond Plumbing. Beyond Plumbing is always reliable and we've passed inspection every time. One house I sold was bid by someone else at $6000 yet Tony at Beyond Plumbing said it would pass without replacement and sure enough it did. Yay! Several thousand dollars saved on that one. The last house I sold did need a sewer lateral replacement. Unfortunately as of July Oakland has a new sidewalk requirement that it needs to pass inspection also. Well, Tony came through for me again. Between asking him to come out and passing both the sidewalk and sewer lateral was a matter of days. My certificates were in hand a week before closing. I don't know what I'd do without Tony. He and his team have come through for me time and time again. Thanks Beyond Plumbing you're now my one stop shop! read more

Beyond Plumbing are absolutely wonderful! I used them to work on my sewer lateral and they were professional and timely with their responses and they went above and beyond to ensure that my pipes passed the sewer lateral pressure test. They are also reasonably priced and a delight to work with. I would recommend them to anyone, read more

Had a great experience getting our sewer lateral inspected and replaced by the team at Beyond Plumbing. The owner (Tony) helped us get scheduled right after the holidays, with only a couple weeks of lead time. His crew was awesome -- super friendly and organized, and completed everything on time with no problems with EBMUD and city inspections. Our property is steeply sloped in the Oakland Hills, with a backyard that's difficult to access. The Beyond Plumbing team went the extra mile to deal with getting their heavy equipment into this difficult area, and even ended up replacing our city sewer connection (which is not normally required for sewer lateral compliance) at no cost to us, which is normally a $550 job. Because that cost wasn't in our original estimate, we were not charged -- really generous of them, and is a reflection of the ethical character of the owner. This is great local business and I would recommend them to any new homeowners in Oakland who need to get a sewer lateral compliance certificate. We will be going back to them in the future if we need other major plumbing work. Thanks Tony! read more

I am a local contractor. i was out of town and one of my clients called me about a clogged drain. Unfortunately I was not around. I then looked on yelp for Plumber in my clients area. I found Beyond Plumbing. They came through and saved the day, and i kept a client. Thank you read more

We used Beyond Plumbing to have our Private Sewer Lateral (PSL) replaced in our house in Oakland. It was an absolute pleasure to work with Tony and his team. We faced a couple of tricky situations: the city started paving the street just as we started. Tony was able to shuffle jobs around to complete the street portion just before the city laid down asphalt :-). Kudos to the team for their cooperation and efficiency! They're easy - and efficient - to do business with and they'll be my first choice for any future work! read more

I'm very impressed with Antonio's professionalism on the phone. He answered every question that I had with clarity and went out of his way in providing me with a prompt quote for a sewer lateral in Oakland. read more

I had a water leak underneath my Master Bathroom for quite a while there after posting numerous available plumbers on Yelp; Beyond Plumbing responded within 30 minutes of being able to come out to my home within the next day. Bottomline they repaired my water leak by replacing legacy galvanized pipe with copper. They were very responsive and completed the project very thoroughly and within a reasonable cost point. read more

Sewer lateral work. They were the lowest bid of 4 and kicked ass. The highest bid was 4K more and we would have had to wait 3 weeks... clearly some shops are taking advantage of the new law that requires sellers to do the work. I highly recommend Beyond Plumbing for their excellent professional work and for not sticking it to us. Passed ebmud 2 days later. You can pay with a credit card by phone. read more

After I report my unsatisfied experience last time, the company contact me and apologize for the bad service I had. They told me the plumber guy who did the service was a part time back up worker for the company. And they were willing to provide me another professional service to make up whatever I did not satisfy with. The second service came out pretty well! The plumber guy was super nice and professional. He made sure everything was going well and shown us the main sewer that under the street to prove that the water from our property went through well to the main sewer. I'm happy with the follow up service and will choose them again for future services. (But I will require them not to sent me back up guys, lol) read more

These guys were excellent. Their quote came in 1/3 less than the other company we got off Angie's list. At first we were skeptical because it seemed so low. Then, when they did the job I guess they discovered the work was more complicated than they anticipated BUT they did not charge me the extra $1,500 it would have cost me to complete the job. $1,500 was still less than the 1/3 I mentioned earlier, too, so either way they were a good deal. They did the job faster than we expected. Only small complaint was that on the first day workers left some empty bottles and a bit of a mess in the driveway. I mentioned it to them and they took care of it the next day. read more

Recently moved into a flipped home and I came to the realization our kitchen sink pipe was not connected to the sewer lateral! Luckily, I got a hold of the seller and they said Beyond Plumbing did the original work. With that said, Tony (owner), came by and assured me that the problem would be fixed. I asked him to pay for the 2 previous plumber invoices who came to diagnosis the problem. Tony had no problem with it. Given the circumstances, I'm happy how Tony handled everything. He was responsive to all my questions and concerns and had the situation fixed quickly. He even gave me a 5 year guarantee on the work. read more

Sewer lateral, in San Leandro. My real estate agent recommended them, and they were a pleasure to deal with. Matt Driscoll is a good communicator, honest, straightforward. Estimate was accurate. The crew they sent were pleasant, polite, cleaned up the mess, and handled everything exactly as promised. Five stars! read more

These guys are the best, and offer the best prices with a 20 yr guarantee--better than anyone else around! After having problems with a clogged kitchen sink every other year, and a backed up sewer line once every 3 years, it was finally time to replace the remaining clay pipes in my 1920s home and the lateral sewer line. I got some bids and Beyond Plumbing offered the best proposal at nearly half the price! While working, they discovered areas that also needed to be replaced and created access to my kitchen sink line that was never actually done before & everything past inspection--other plumbers were going to charge hundreds for the city certificate alone! These guys are professional, quick, and will tell it to you straight. I appreciate their no hassle approach. I've since recommended them to neighbors & friends! read more

I recently needed my sewer lateral replaced and called around to a few companies for quotes; Beyond Plumbing wasn't the cheapest but I'm so glad I ended up going with them. They didn't just do the minimum work required to pass inspection but really went above and beyond to make sure the work they did is quality and will hold up over the years. Miguel was really great to work with, very flexible - I was very anxious to get this done because of some sewer issues I was having and he was super understanding and managed to fit me into their schedule earlier than expected (within a week or so). There were some complications in the work but Beyond didn't add any additional fees or charges to the original estimate (I would have understood if they did). If I could give any constructive feedback it would be to work on communication - a couple times I was promised calls or emails on specific days which didn't happen and similar issues - really not a big deal but something that could be worked on. Overall I wouldn't hesitate to work with Beyond again or to recommend them. read more

HOORAY! Lowest estimate, and most professional company of the 3 we had come do estimates. A local business, reliable, on time, courteous- and business like. I was thrilled. Miguel came out, looked it over, said 'I know about how much, but want the 'call before you dig' folks to mark everything before I give you an estimate'. Oh, yes. He also noted the creek in the back yard, and told us about the permit for digging near the creek- the first of 3 guys to note it, to include that in the estimate. There was a junction under our cement front steps, but he figured out how to get around that- no breaking up the steps. Got the estimate, told us when they could be here- were on time, prompt, professional- and fast! One day to do the work, E Bay Mud scheduled for the next day- here, got er done! Thank you, thank you, Beyond Plumbing. read more

Antonio said he knew a guy who could do the job for a better price than his company! When does that ever happen? Moy came the next day and did great work for a _very_ fair price. Wonderful experience all around. read more

We had our PSL done as required by the city of Oakland. Beyond Plumbing provided a comprehensive quote which covers both upper and lower lateral. They ended up having to replace both which undeniably cost a lot of money but Tony was very understanding and worked with us to get the payment terms sorted. I'm very thankful for people like Tony who run an honest business with the customer's best interest at heart. I highly recommend them. Both Tony and Marco are highly responsive and helpful. The work they did was top notch and was done in a timely manner. They did everything from getting the permits, completing the work, getting it inspected, and finally providing me with my certificate of compliance. The process from start to finish took about a week. Very happy that we got this done with them. read more

We've had a stellar experience with Beyond Plumbing for a private sewer lateral job in our new home. The crew was responsive, respectful, took time to walk us through the work they would do and within what time frame. Their estimate seemed high at first, but once they reviewed the details of what the work would require, it was actually a very fair price. Miguel was our main point of contact. He and Lorenzo came on time, were in touch with me via mobile along each step, and were even mindful of my neighbors. They finished a very complicated job in 2.5 days and left the house grounds in tact as it was before they did the work. They also found they needed to do a bit more in order for my PSL to pass compliance with EBMud. They did what was necessary and we now have a positive certification. My final touch point was with the owner, Tony, and he was as responsive and easy to work with as his crew. I am now going to save them in my contacts as a go-to, in case we have further plumbing needs. read more

Stellar service from Tony and Miguel at Beyond Plumbing! They came over right away to give me and estimate on replacing my sewer lateral, shortly after they were able to secure permits and start work within a couple of days. They left the property in great condition each evening and final concrete work looks clean and tidy. Miguel ran into a couple minor complications due to previous owners plumbing but Miguel came in on the weekend to solve the issue, which of course didn't take too long for him to figure out. They are efficient, courteous and reasonably priced based on other quotes I received. Highly recommended! read more

Tony at Beyond Plumbing really helped me as an owner builder to sort through the quagmire of the City of Oakland permitting process. He took the time to understand what is going on with my project and take personal calls with my questions when other companies didn't have the patience to care. He is a really nice guy and takes pride in his work. I hired him for the EBMUD certificate also and we passed but not at first. It took him team working a bit extra to help it pass, but they pulled through and I was able to pass. His quote was a little higher than other companies but I decided to go with him as he was willing to talk with me about my project and help me navigate the Department of Transportation permitting. Thanks Tony! read more

We recently purchased a house and required sewer lateral work as part of the closing. Tony and his crew did a fantastic job performing the required work. Everyone we interacted with was very knowledgeable. They quickly assessed the work and discovered the home report incorrectly indicated we needed to replace the sewer lateral saving us several thousand dollars. Given we were working to complete the work before closing so we didn't have to front the city the bond money for the work, Tony made it happen. I found Tony responsive, straight forward, honest, and reliable. I would highly recommend his company. read more

I called Tony in a bit of a panic on a Friday afternoon. A different plumber/sewer rooter company had given me a run around and tried to charge me for sequential and increasingly expensive fees to "clear" an obviously broken sewer main/lateral that definitely needed to be replaced urgently. Only after failing to clear the line and demanding payment did this other plumber tell me that it would be at least 4-6 weeks before permits could be obtained to allow them to replace the line. Thankfully there are honest, knowledgeable, kind experts (Tony at a Beyond Plumbing, Inc) who are really there to help. Tony made phone calls to the permits department, the folks at the city who mark the street's gas and water lines, his crew members, and probably a few others. By mid day on Monday (less than one full business day!!!!) I had a new city approved sewer line. I cannot say enough good things about this company's professionalism, expertise, and kindness. I feel so very lucky to have found Tony and Beyond Plumbing, Inc, read more

Tony was working on a neighbor's sewer line and needed access from our property. He and his team were courteous, considerate and timely in the use of our shared property. Tony insured all holes made were filled and asphalt restored to perfection. Thank you, Tony and Team, for doing fantastic work. read more
