Faren and his team do great work. His crew can address emergency calls after hours, do underground work (new pipes and cleaning), and general plumbing. He has helped me solve issues with strange connections in waste pipes (from unknown neighboring buildings), resolved backed up waste pipes from a clogged house trap, and other issues. His truck is stocked with the necessary items to make repairs on the spot. I highly recommend him and his team. read more

Luis from Discover Plumbing did a great job in repairing a leak. I got quotes from five different plumbers, and Discover Plumbing stood out because they were thorough with their inspection before providing a quote, focused on the issue, and did not try to upsell me. Luis arrived on time, was polite, wore shoe covers, and kept his workplace clean. He explained the work, without trying to suggest any unnecessary repairs, which is greatly appreciated! Other "highly rated" plumbers I spoke with tried to charge up to 5 times more for the same job. Luis guaranteed his work and said he'd come back if any issues came up. Scheduling was easy and both he and the office were responsive. If you need a plumber, I strongly recommend getting multiple quotes, you'll be surprised (shocked, maybe angry) to see how much others overcharge. Thanks Discover Plumbing, you'll be the go-to in the future!! read more

Discover came quickly for a hydrojetting emergency call within an hour! Knowledgeable and fast!

Discover was able to schedule a same-day appointment to fix my garbage disposal leak. Jorge was excellent and explained everything very clearly. He found an additional issue and was able to fix that as well at a fair price. I wish I had called them from the beginning instead of trying to install the disposal myself! read more

Asked for a quote to replace water heater. They came over to check the site 90 mins late of the agreed time. 2 days later the quote comes in as one lump sum, does not break down any of the line items included and comes in VERY high. I requested a breakdown - no response. No follow up from the company in any shape or form, just a very unstructured lump sum quote thrown in to email and total silence after that. Several days and emails later, no response. You should look for someone who actually wants the business. Not sure if this is the standard level of service in the industry, this is the 2nd company we are experiencing this with. read more

Great service! I was recommended Discover by my HOA manager and came highly recommended. I would definitely recommend this company for their excellent service. They are quick and efficient. The staff is hardworking and complete their task with a friendly smile. They explained what they were going to work on and even cleaned up like they were never there. Their prices are fair and reasonable for the type of work they do. Thank you Efren and staff for making our unpleasant and unexpected plumbing issues disappear in a flash. read more

Yellow curb parking in Daly City is strictly for loading and unloading for a maximum 20 minutes. This review isn't for any type of service. I'm disabled and I had a simple dental checkup I was trying to get to today but he decided to stay parked here texting or doing whatever on his phone for more than the allowed 20 minutes. Maybe it's my fault for not saying anything to him but regardless of me being disabled or not, it didn't seem to bother him that I had to park further away from the entrance to get in and out. Please be mindful of who you might be hindering, and also the city parking code rules, that's all. read more

Discover Plumbing and Rooter - Plumber taking up a close temporary spot - Plumbing Near Me - San Francisco, California

They did a great job with the plumbing issue which was much worse then all of us initially thought. Well done

Great service. Thorough explanation. Reasonable prices. Fast professional- job done . Timely response and quick at getting it done

Our washing machine flooded in the evening due to the drain being clogged. I tried snaking it myself with a 25' snake but it didn't help. I contacted Discover to ask for a quote in the morning and they responded with the best price and the shortest window to come over. They only had a one hour window as opposed to some other devices that have 4+ hours which they arrived as promised. Not only did a service tech arrive, but the manager as well. Both were extremely professional and assessed the problem before taking any action. They isolated it to the mainline and was able to run a commercial snake to have everything unclogged in less than an hour. Once everything was tested with the other water lines to make sure the problem was resolved they cleaned up the work area and hooked up the lines back to the washing machine. I can't express how much I would recommend this company for jobs big or small. I'll definitely be reaching out to them for service in the future. read more

I'm no home repair expert, but I feel like it's really easy to overpay for plumbing and rooter services. They were available for a same day appointment and efficient -- in an out in 15 minutes for a clogged toilet. Definitely recommend! read more

I needed a leaky sink looked at quickly and Faren was very kind and communicated well what was happened. I will give them another call in the future. read more

Very happy with this business services. We had a non emergency appointment made over the weekend. I wasn't expecting a call back until Monday but was called back within 20 minutes. Clog was repaired and future work needed was communicated. The price was within reason. I will be using them again for sure! read more

Great working with Faren. Communicated well. Fair pricing. Completed work on time.

Discovery to the rescue! My heroes. My sink and washing machine overflowed into my downstairs unit. I rent it as an airbnb so i look for speed and professionalism as top priorities. They delivered both. From dirty water overflowing in the downstairs kitchen to problem solved in 24 hours. Thank you!! read more

Just want to write a deeply appreciative review of Discover Plumbing. Our laundry sink was completely clogged after doing a washing machine load in the late afternoon. I went into Yelp and found Discover Plumbing based on their positive reviews. I called and spoke with Faren, and he was able to come by quickly in 90 minutes, which was great considering the time of day. Upon arriving Faren and Joseph did some detective work to confirm the extent of the clog. Since it appeared that the kitchen drain was also affecting the clog, there also might be an issue related to the accumulation of food and grease. Though Faren offered the options to either do a (less-expensive) snake or hydro-jet, we went with the hydro-jet based on the idea that this would not only break up the clog but clean the sides of the pipes as well (and reduce the need for a return trip should a clog reappear). It was amazing to see the amount of gunk that was removed just prior to the clog being broken up and quite satisfying to see the effect of the line being cleared out. After less than an hour, Faren and Joseph were able to hydro-jet the line a number of times to really clean it. It was so nice to see their attention to detail to include cleaning up the work area like there wasn't anyone there before. I am so glad to have found Discover Plumbing...I'll definitely call them again for any other plumbing needs! read more

I live in an apartment building that had a serious plumbing problem. The pipes underground had to be replaced due to a leak. We were told it would be 4 or 5 days, which turned into 2 weeks. The work done was sufficient; the crew was polite, but no one on site for most of the days spoke English, so it was very difficult to deal with problems. My electricity was turned off without ng notified and my refrigerator was off most of the day one day. And a few days later a fuse was blown so the exterior safety light and interior stairwell light were off and STILL ARE because I couldn't convey the problem to the crew. I've phoned twice to get this rectified and left messages, but no one has taken the time to return my call. Several times the water was turned off for hours on end and no one let us know when it was starting or ending. I'm not impressed. Luckily I don't have to pay for it! Becky An addendum to the review. Just spoke with the owner who says he is going to send someone to check the electricity to the safety lights. read more

I had an issue with my shower diverter. Andres responded quickly, came on time and figured out the problem. He quickly went and got the new plumbing part needed and fixed the issue within an hour. Thanks so much! read more

I appreciated Discover's responsiveness. I called in the morning and they called back within an hour. I had an appointment for that afternoon. The technician charged $150 to cut holes in the drywall to determine the source of the leak (they would not repair it). When it was found out that that drain was not leaking. He charged me another $125 to determine if the tiled wall was the source--I felt I didn't have a choice and agreed. When it was determined where the tile and tub meet needed recaulking--he would make an additional charge to caulk (and no warranty). No thanks. This charge as you go had had me feeling taken advantage of. Next time I will take my time in finding a plumber. Caveat emptor. read more

Faren and his crew worked quickly to replace our building's broken water heater. He took my call late on a Friday and by noon the following day we had the replacement being installed. They were professional and affordable. We'll definitely be using them in the future. read more

Don't know where to begin. The following is an account of my "Discovering" that home plumbing is essential. This is the most important Yelp! review I've ever done and it will be long. At the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, and at the beginning of the shelter in place mandate when we were all in panic mode, my sewer line backed up. It was partly because of its age (I happened to be renting the basement inlaw unit back in 1983 when it had been replaced), and also because of a beautiful but aggressive tree I decided to plant 10 years ago. Shit and flotsam and detritus backed up all over the basement in-law that I'd just renovated as my Mancave, in a tiny, 130 year-old one bedroom cottage. The whole situation reminded me of my last long-term relationship. Thought I could get away with a simple rootering. I found Ferrin from Yelp. But his rooter broke and the camera revealed severe cracks in the pipe in several paces, with roots from the tree growing all the way down the inside of my retaining wall (my old house is up on a steep hill, set back from the street) and into the sidewalk. All of the pipe, all the way up to the house, had to be replaced. As a rule, I do not trust men. (see above comment about my ex). I especially don't trust men to do things that I do not understand and/or can't do myself. Trenching on this steep property to replace the pipes would have involved bulldozers and maybe helicopters. In the middle of this unprecedented plague, I could not flush a toilet, take a shower -- or stay with friends. Ferrin said he had a machine that could tunnel in a new pipe without trenching. But the old steel galvanized water pipe that had been placed by some genius right next to the sewer line would crack if they did that. Old steel pipes rust inside, just like my own clogged arteries. But Lipitor and similar meds not cure them. Because I had tolerated living in this house for decades with a trickle of low water pressure, I knew my outside water line to the house needed to be replaced with copper pipe. Everything that Ferrin said made perfect sense and won my trust and respect. Over the years, I had to have the pipes within the house replaced with copper, bit by bit, for various leaky reasons. But still, you couldn't brush your teeth while last night's date was taking a shower. A flushed toilet took five minutes to refill the tank, so any laundry or dishwasher cycle had to be paused. That SCUBA diving trip to Tahiti seemed more fun than copper pipes -- until I no longer had water going into and out of my home. The quote was the price of a new, low-end Hyundai. WTF! Didn't happen to have that cash in my pocket.... Was in shock, but time to do some adulting. Doing unspeakable things in my backyard was not working. Meanwhile, as an immunology research scientist, my job is considered essential, so I had to go to work (now, suddenly on a new project for this fucking asshole virus) and did not have time to deal with water and waste pipes. So, I took out another credit card and hired Discover Plumbing. There were 5 days of jackhammering the sidewalk, pipes everywhere, welding, 6 or 7 guys, three vans on the street, traffic cones, and city permits. This was clearly a big job. Without water, I stayed in a hotel. At 3% occupancy during quarantine, it was affordable. Ferrin and his crew were unbelievably professional, skilled, efficient, and kind. Unexpected problems kept coming up -- a new partial retaining wall, a new fence. SF City Permits. But despite all that, he kept to the same quote. The crew continued work after hours and on Saturday. I hope that my business helped keep this crew employed during these difficult times. Now I have enough water pressure to cool a nuclear power plant reactor. And I can take a shower while doing a load of laundry and running the dishwasher. The toilet tank takes less than 15 seconds to refill. It's almost like living in a normal house. This odyssey was a fantastic investment. I am so proud of my home plumbing and the fact that there's one thing I've done to this house that is actually to code and is permitted! Throughout this experience, the fact that billions of people on this planet lack basic indoor plumbing and clean water was not lost on me. Some of us take these things for granted. Every aspect of civilization relies on fresh water. The skilled professionals who provide this are as essential to health as doctors. After the job was done, I found that the water line to my backyard (further up the hill) wasn't working. It was part the old galvanized steel circuit and had been a tiny trickle, but it was not something on Ferin's radar. He and one guy came back and they both spent half a day installing new copper pipe to my backyard. No charge. I would highly recommend Discover Plumbing, especially for big jobs like this. Last comment -- all the guys on this crew are good looking, lol! read more

Quick response, friendly, on time(!), and great prices. AND quality work and finish. Great plumbing company; will call them again if anything new pops up. read more

I cannot recommend Faren and Discover Plumbing highly enough. I own a small residential building (just two apartments). Friday morning one of my tenants called and said that there was a problem with their water heater. I figured that I knew what was wrong so I went by, removed the problem part, got a replacement and installed it. And . . . I was wrong. So, at three in the afternoon on a Friday I had to find a plumber to figure out what was wrong. Extra important on when your tenants don't have any hot water right before the weekend. I friend referred me to Faren and I gave him a call. One hour later, Vlad showed up at the building. He checked out the problem, agreed with me that it was time for a new heater and left to get one. He was back in less than an hour and the new heater was installed by 7. The job was professionally done (including a new and properly installed earthquake strap and new shut off valve) and Vlad left the job site perfectly clean. Plus, since it's Covid-Time, he wore a proper respirator the entire time he was working. Discover Plumbing is now my go-to, get-it-done plumbing company! read more

Main drain was backed up due to tree roots. Jimmy snaked 75' of main line and problem solved. It was an evening emergency and they responded and finished before 9pm. Thank you ... read more

I had an excellent experience. Faren and team replaced my sewer line and water line from my house to the street. They were super professional, did a great job, and were easy to work with. It couldn't have been a smoother process. Highly recommend! read more

I have no complaints about their workers, but for the management team. We "discovered" that Discover Plumbing dropped the final inspection after the (replace sewer line) project was done (2021) which resulted in the permit expiring. When the permit expires, the county doesn't approve any future permits. The county charged us $82.50 to re-instate the permit from a year ago so that we can arrange a final inspection and get going on our next project. The county inspector is also at fault for not arranging with Discover Plumbing to sign off on the project instead of leaving a blank paper saying the homeowner is not home. The new sewer line is visible since it is in the front yard and should have been approved of without the homeowner being present to show them the two clean out portals where the inspector (R. Gendreau) must enter the front yard in order to knock on the front door. One does not even need to enter the yard to see the work was done, the sidewalk re-paved, the street asphalt filled in. ("Contractor has restored the sidewalk, verified smooth dowels. Ok to final. Pics taken Inspector: AC Status: Pass 10/13/2021") read more

We had a water heater that sprung a leak and flooded the garage. So it was a bit of an emergency. Called Discover Plumbing in the morning and they sent someone in the afternoon, gave us a quote and fixed everything in two hours. The work was very clean, neat and professional. And they gave us a 100 dollar discount after everything was done. We really appreciate the speed and the quality of work by Discover plumbing! Thanks! Great work. read more

It was after 5:30pm when I called several plumbing companies, most were not available to come out until the next day. I was referred to Discover Plumbing by one of the companies I called. Faren came out within 30 minutes! Our main sewer drain was clogged, backed up in our garage (yuck). He provided a couple of options to unclog the drain and we decided on the hydro jet. Our drain was cleared within 30 mins! Faren was knowledgeably and did a great job. We especially appreciate that he came out so quickly! I highly recommend and will use Discover Plumbing in the future. read more

Great and quick professional service by Feran to replace a thermal couple for my water heater. Thank you again!

Our toilet had major blockage, we called roto rooter twice and they couldn't fix major blockage. Luckily, my landlord called Good2Go plumbing, they not only fixed blockage, they made a clean out to make it easier for future issues, fixed leak in toilet and improved water pressure in kitchen sink. What a God send! Oliver did an excellent job with his and was very friendly as well. read more

After reaching out to a couple of pluming companies that don't provide commercial repair service, I found Discover on yelp and contacted them as my last hope. I mentioned we are a preschool and needed urgent service. They expedited the work and did an excellent job. Thank you Discover Plumbing for helping us! :) read more

We had a really bad blockage in our toilet. The tech fixed it, thank goodness!! Thank you for being courteous, wearing a mask, and clean. We are going to hire the tech again for a renewal of pipes, which are way over due an overhaul. We would definitely recommend you guys to everyone we know and the yelp community too. read more

They were able to come today on short notice when most other plumbers we called told us they could not give an appointment for today. Very prompt and efficient in replacing the leaking pipe below the kitchen sink. Highly recommended. read more

We found out we had a gas leak late on a Friday, and after PG&E shut off the gas we were stuck finding a plumber to fix it. Faren and his crew were great. They did solid work at a fair price, were a pleasure to interact with, and I would happily call them for future plumbing work. read more

Recently I hired Discover Plumbing for a large job of replacing my Sewer Line, Fresh water line, and re-cementing the driveway and walkway. When they came to give me the estimate I met Faren and his crew and they arrived prepared to do the sewer lateral, should I want it. I really appreciate how informative and thorough Faren was about ever aspect of what the job would entail, and just the professionalism of Faren and his crew from that first meeting impressed me and I hired them on the spot for the job. Every day they showed up on time, worked long hours, communicated with me regularly, and oh my gosh- I just have to add that on a big job like this a homeowner has to expect a whole bunch of upheaval to the front lawn/landscape around the house, but Faren and crew contained the areas being worked on each night and then at the end of the job they smoothed the soil and left it nice and neat. I highly recommend Faren for all your plumbing projects! read more

Discover Plumbing and Rooter was extremely timely, professional, friendly and reasonably priced. Our water heater stopped working on a Sunday, and they were the only ones who would respond that day. Our family would've gone several days without hot water had Discover not responded so swiftly. I couldn't recommend them more highly. read more

I called them to fix a leak in my bathroom sink - I knew where the leak was coming from and showed them. They took apart the plumbing and told me I needed new part and it would cost 300, there was no leak coming from this area they told me it would be $125 to put it back and no guarantees on the work please avoid this company read more

Faren came out to fix our clogged toilet the same day I called, during a holiday weekend. He was quick, courteous and professional. I plan to use them again for any future plumbing needs. read more

Quick response, timely arrival, excellent work, fair prices and no leaks. What more could you want from a plumber? Don't hesitate to call them if you need help. read more

Today, 8/10/20, we had an emergency at our house where the sewer water came up. We had a toilet and downstairs plumbing clogged up. This was our first time we called Discover Plumbing and Rooter. They answered the call promptly and two men showed up in their truck, within the time they promised, actually very shortly. The work wasn't easy but they did an excellent job out of a messy situation. Kevin and the other man (my husband didn't catch his name), worked hard, unclogged our lines, put the toilet back in, and cleaned up after themselves really nicely. That means a lot. The whole time they worked they had their masks on. We are very happy with Kevin and the other men, and also with Discover Plumbing and Rooter. We are glad we discovered you guys! read more
