    After photo - new wax ring installed
    Bruski N.

    They quoted us $4,250 to fix our clogged toilet. I was at an event but our niece was there when they came to give an estimate. Seeing how young and inexperienced she was, they tried to pull a scare tactic when they lifted the toilet and saw some micro roots at the top of the drain. They claimed that the roots cracked the pipe and they must excavate the soil up to 3 feet deep to access and repair the pipe. Additional fees would be charged if they couldn't get a clean pipe cut. They also said that they would not be responsible for putting back the tiles that were removed to repair. Luckily, my niece contacted me and I was able to assess the problem from the photos that she sent. There were micro-roots but they were too small to crack the pipe. In fact, with all houses (especially old ones), you will find roots near any areas with moisture. Once in a while, these roots can crack old pipes and clog them up. But in our case, I could tell that the micro-roots came up from the outside of the pipe and started to cover the rim of the drain. All you have to do is pull, clear, and clean them out. I asked the plumber why he didn't do that but he insisted that the roots cracked the pipe and he must excavate the bathroom to fix it. By this time, I knew that we were being scammed, and I told him to just put it back so I could get another plumber who was honest and willing to do the right thing. He said fine but we owed them $500 for his work. I brought up their free estimate advertisement but he insisted the charge was for unscrewing two screws, lifting the toilet, using the snake to look down and assess the problem, and putting the toilet back. I couldn't believe what I was hearing but since my niece didn't know and thought it was part of the free estimate. I asked him how much less if he didn't put back the toilet. He called his boss and came back with $400 total for basically a quick 30-minute estimate/evaluation. After the plumber left, I contacted my brother-in-law. He came over to help out. We easily cleared, cleaned, and put back the toilet in less than 40 minutes. There were no cracks. My intuition and assessment were correct and saved us at least $4000 of our hard-earned money. It ended up costing an additional $14.83 for a new wax ring and a tube of caulking. A big lesson learn is that most businesses that use Discount as part of their names will usually charge you a lot more than whatever they are discounting. Don't throw your hard-earned money in the toilet. We are never going to use Discount Plumbing SD again!

    Tankless water heater flushing.
    Nacho R.

    I recently had the pleasure of experiencing a tankless water heater flush service from Discount Plumbing Rooter, and I cannot recommend them highly enough! Our technician, Javier Diaz, arrived promptly and was incredibly knowledgeable and professional throughout the process. Javier took the time to explain the benefits of flushing our tankless water heater, emphasizing how it helps improve efficiency and prolongs the lifespan of the unit. He meticulously and efficiently handled the entire procedure, ensuring that everything was done to the highest standard. I appreciated his attention to detail and care in protecting our home during the service. After the flush, Javier provided helpful tips on maintaining our system, which showed his commitment to customer education and satisfaction. Our water heater is now performing better than ever, and we have already noticed improved water flow and temperature consistency. Overall, this was a fantastic experience, and I am grateful for Javier's expertise and the excellent service provided by Discount Plumbing Rooter. If you need tankless water heater service, look no further--these are the professionals you want! Thank you, Javier!

    My new toilet installed!

    Called due to a clog on toilet and bathtub back up. The dispatcher Tina was super helpful and sent out two plumbers within the hour. Harrison and Angel came and installed a new toilet and were both super professional and respectful. Pricing was great for me as well and I will definitely call them again if needed. Thank you fellas!!

    Rapid Water Heater

    (154 reviews)

    My day was going great until I took a shower and noticed that getting hot water was more difficult…read morethan usual. I took a look at my water heater and saw what I was afraid of; a pan full of water underneath it. My day got worse as I called around and got quoted some outrageous prices. But that evening, I spoke to Miguel from Rapid Water Heater. I texted pictures of my situation and he quoted me a far more reasonable price than anything else I had gotten. He also said that he could be at my place the very next morning despite the fact that I'm in Escondido and he's in Chula Vista. The next morning, he shows up and replaces my water heater with a good quality Rheem heater quickly on a miserably hot day for the price quoted. No upsells, no bait and switch and then he cleaned everything up. All in all. a very smooth experience. If I ever had water heater issues in the future, I would definitely call Rapid Water Heater first.

    Our tankless water heater stopped working late yesterday. I called Miguel based on his company name…read moreand stellar ratings. He answered himself, even though it was after hours (6:15pm) Said he could have a tech out 9am today. As promised, an experienced and thoughtful plumber arrived on time, and diagnosed our system after looking thru all the digital alerts. He said it just needed a thorough flushing and cleaning. We were thrilled that within one hour we had hot water in all our spigots again. If you want someone who is professional, knowledgeable, and capable of immediately solving your water heater problems, please don't waste your time at any of the other common and more prevalent names out there. Miguel is the only guy you wanna call, I promise you.

    Great company to deal with love these guys. Highley recommend them as a company def check them outread more

    We had a leak from our old water heater that our downstairs neighbor alerted us to a couple of days…read moreago. After we shut off the water, I got to looking for a company that could come out ASAP and resolve the issue. I called WHO around 5 a.m. and they had an overnight messaging service person who took all my info and let me know that I would get a call after 7 a.m. Around 7 a.m. I got a call and was able to set up a same day appointment. The folks on the phone were nice enough and professional. I was thrilled that someone would be coming out soon. We were alerted via text when our technician, Francisco, was on his way and he called to let us know when he would be arriving. Around 10 a.m. he was onsite and ready to assess the issue and give us a quote. They say free estimate, but I`m sure they still charge a service fee if you don`t end up agreeing to the quote. We agreed to the quote even though we didn`t want to( I mean..who WANTS to pay for a new water heater? haha). Anyway, Francisco explained all the parts and labor involved and was very informative about what each component was for and why, which we appreciated. Estimate signed and away we go. Francisco worked quickly and efficiently. By 2 p.m. we had a new water heater and the tech was cleaning up and ready to go. The job was quicker than we thought, which was great, and even though he said to give the water about an hour to heat, we tested it before and we got nice, hot water quickly. The new unit looks so fresh and new and everything went well. We were given a 2 year labor warranty, so that is a nice assurance. All in all, a great experience. I do want to go over pricing because while every scenario is different, I like to be transparent. A lot of people will say, "This is what I was quoted for XYZ" or "I ended up paying such and such amount less than other companies". We had an old unit(about 25 years old), we live in an upstairs condo unit and our water heater is on the balcony in a closer(location of the unit is all considered when quoting). We needed a new water heater(40 gallons), obviously, some new piping(portions, not full), a drip pan, some other bits and bobs(that weren't that expensive) and you are paying for the labor and expertise of the tech). We ended up with a $3000 bill for this service. AGAIN, every situation is different, but I do like to give the Yelp community a run down of my situation and pricing so that they can make informed decisions. As mentioned above, a great experience and we are back up and running with our hot water. I will update if anything significant happens.

    We've used Quick Water Heater & Filtration Company twice now and have been very happy both times…read more Our first install was back in 2019 with Gregg and Jacob, and everything went smoothly. This time around, our Rheem water heater failed before reaching even 7 years, despite having a 12‑year warranty. Even though Quick is closed on weekends, Brandon texted me and set us up first thing Monday morning. Ben (sales) was extremely helpful, walked me through all the options, and made a genuine effort to get Rheem to honor the warranty. Unfortunately, Rheem couldn't provide a replacement and instead offered fair market compensation (still TBD). Not thrilled with Rheem, but Ben handled the situation professionally and kept me informed throughout. We ultimately went with a Bradford White, and Sammy installed it the same day. His work was excellent--professional, efficient, and spotless cleanup. The Bradford White + installation was very reasonable and very surprisingly comparable to my prior installation. Very impressed with Quick's responsiveness, professionalism, and ability to turn everything around in a single day. Highly recommend them.
