Updating my original review years later because we ended up needing Mick again today for another…read moreplumbing issue at one of our family properties. We had a sewer backup issue affecting the back unit/ADU while also dealing with separate toilet issues in the front house. Mick responded quickly, diagnosed both problems efficiently, and got everything resolved the same day. The front house issue turned out to be worn toilet flappers from normal wear and tear. The back unit issue was a main line grease buildup/clog that required drain clearing and camera inspection work. Mick also took the time to explain the likely long-term slope/drainage concern with the ADU connection in a very straightforward and practical way. One thing I still appreciate after all these years is that Mick communicates like an operator, not a salesman. He explains what is urgent, what is manageable, and what may become a future capital repair issue without trying to create panic or pressure. Fast response, direct communication, practical diagnostics, and strong long-term knowledge of older LA plumbing systems and rental properties. Still highly recommend Mick and Right Price Rooter & Plumbing.

He performed a gas pressure test, identified multiple leaks, and clearly explained the situation along with upfront pricing. Since it was a larger job, I let them know I'd be getting a few other estimates. After comparing, their price was not only very competitive but the best overall--especially considering the warranty--so it was an easy decision. The job took two days and was completed perfectly. Drywall was opened, patched, and painted to match. They installed an earthquake shut-off valve, pulled permits, and handled inspections without any issues. What really stood out was the honesty, communication, and professionalism--from the initial phone call to the final walkthrough. Everything was clearly explained, and the team was responsive the entire time. Mick is clearly passionate about his company and it shows in the quality of work and customer care. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again and highly recommend them to anyone needing plumbing services. Right Price Rooter you guys rock!

Charlie's Sewer and Drain set up an appointment and sent out their plumbing tech Cesar to have a look. Cesar was on time, friendly, and knowledgable. He popped open the trap and also tried to clear the clog in the drain with his more industrial-strength snake.

He wrapped up and cleaned up, and after we discussed possible next steps, he got us an estimate for further work within the hour. He didn't charge us since we weren't able to get the clog cleared, which I really appreciate.

I've unfortunately been burned by other plumbers in the past--overcharged, misled, rushed jobs, and half-finished work that caused more problems later. Gary was the complete opposite of that experience. He took his time, worked incredibly hard, diagnosed and fixed issues that others either ignored or messed up, and made sure everything was done correctly and safely. He didn't cut corners, didn't rush, and didn't leave until everything was 100% up and running. What truly sets Gary apart is his honesty. In today's world, finding a plumber you can actually trust is rare, and Gary is one of those people. He will never screw you over, never upsell you on things you don't need, and always explains what's going on so you understand exactly what you're paying for. His goal is clearly to do the job right and make sure the customer is genuinely satisfied before he leaves. Because of how consistent, reliable, and ethical he is, I recommend Gary and Americana Plumbing to all of my friends and family without hesitation. He deserves the highest recognition for his work.
