Once again, we were in need of plumbing help as our kitchen faucet suddenly failed after many years of service and the drain in the sink developed a big leak. My first call was to Flintridge Rooter and Fine Plumbing late in the afternoon where I left a message about our problem. I received a call back from Mary Jo early the next morning and she recounted my problems. She explained that Carlos was not available until the following week but she could get Santiago who works with Carlos to our house the next day in the late afternoon. Today she called and explained that Santiago was available earlier. He arrived within an hour of her call. Santiago repaired the drain and installed the new faucet that we purchased the previous evening. He was efficient and respectful of our home and kitchen. He was very professional and skilled; and completed the job in under two hours. Again, Flintridge Rooter and Fine Plumbing came through for us. We are grateful for Mary Jo and the help she afforded us in getting this work completed. read more

What an amazing company. Great communication. Incredibly professional and knowledgeable. Carlos, the owner, took great care of us...fixed a leaking pipe under the house. It's so nice to have a plumber that you can trust to get the job done right. Highly recommended!! read more

Highly recommend! 9/10 (9 only because they never even had to come to my house!!). I had sudden onset water hammer (pipes rattling in the walls) after I installed a bidet and was 30 seconds from agreeing to pay 250$ to a local plumbing company which blind quoted me install of a water hammer arrestor (Arrestor costs 30$ btw). I had called Flintridge rooter earlier in the morning (unfortunately but a good sign that all the plumbers were already out in the field) I was told they would call back as soon as they could. And they did! I spoke with CARLOS who, wait for it, listened to me about the problem. He was able to educate me, walked me through over the phone, and voila problem fixed! No in home visit needed, no blind quote given, just customer service like it is supposed to be. They will be getting any plumbing business from me in the future. I highly recommend giving them a call when in need. Thanks again Carlos and the Flintridge Rooter team. read more

I needed a new earthquake valve installed into my gas line. The only problem was that the gas meter was located in a cramped spot and the line branched into two separate lines into the house (3/4" and 1/2"), leaving no obvious location to place the valve. A couple different plumbers came by and gave me both a) outlandish quotes and b) confusing explanations about the work involved. Carlos from Flintridge Rooter came by and gave me a clear explanation about how he was going to solve the problem and also explained how he bills for his time, resulting in a reasonable, affordable estimate. Carlos performed the work quickly and the end result was a nicely organized line into my house, mediated by a brand new earthquake valve. He explained how everything worked and when he was done he even explained how maintenance of our tankless water heater worked. If you need plumbing help, Carlos is the best. Thank you, Flintridge Rooter! read more

Whenever I need a plumber, Carlos is always reliable, despite his busy schedule. When my sink was clogged, he responded promptly and fixed it right away. Then my water heater randomly broke and he came the very next day to resolve the issue. His prices are reasonable, and the quality of his work is outstanding. read more

Flintridge Rooter & Fine Plumbing was recommended from a very close friend of mine. He told me how Carlos can be such a nice guy and very fair on his pricing. He sure was very friendly, but very expensive and low quality in the work they perform. I ended up paying so much for a repair and the job wasn't even completed. Totally a waste of money. I had to call another plumber to come and do the job the right and ended up paying half of what he charged me. I don't recommend Flintridge Rooter guys. Go somewhere else, where they're going to get the job done the right way the first time. read more

Carlos literally completed a near impossible job. I had a highly rated plumbing company come by to replace a simple shower valve. They ended up stripping the part beyond repair and told me that the only solution was to tear down the wall, quoting me $1,200+ to complete the job. I went to get a second opinion from a few other plumbers and Carlos was the only one who could come up with solutions other than tearing down a wall because of the damage. Carlos went above and beyond and came back 3 times until he was able to solve the problem never once giving up. He was also extremely honest, professional and fair. I highly recommend Carlos and will definitely hire him for future projects! read more

Carlos is a real professional. He has helped us with several plumbing problems at the house. He explains what he is going to do and reviews the options with you before starting out on a job. We have always been very satisfied with his work and he is a real gentleman to deal with. read more

I contacted Carlos via Yelp regarding pricing for a pressure regulator replacement and he replied swiftly. He came out the same day to check out our piping to see what he would quote. He got back to me within an hour with a quote for his labor rate along with very transparent charges for the parts he would need to purchase. He came over the next day and finished the job and checked out a couple other small issues we had that kept sprouting up due to the high water pressure. He was extremely transparent in the invoice and I had no questions about what I was paying for. Carlos is very honest and will be our go to option for all of our plumbing needs moving forward. read more

Had a clog in our bathroom sink I could not get cleared with my snake. After coming to my senses that I can't do everything I called a pro. Office staff was friendly and tech was just as friendly but more importantly got the job done!! Everything was left clean after the job as if nothing had happened. And all for a very reasonable price! Next time I may just skip the DIY part... read more

Since my husband and I just moved to the new house, we had a lot of things to install and fix such as connecting gas vent, remove old laundry sink and install a new one and so on. Carlos and Santiago displayed an impressive level of expertise in plumbing. They exhibited an in-depth understanding of our water and sewer systems. (Carlos even gave us a good advice with gardening!) We really appreciate it. We had a home inspection prior to enlisting Carlos, the inspector told us numerous things to be fixed, but Carlos took a look at everything and he prioritized the most urgent ones. His honest and transparent approach saved us a significant amount of money. If we have a problem in the future, we're sure to ask him again! read more

Carlos, owner, always does quick and effective work. He has built up considerable trust with me. Highly recommend him any plumbing work, large or small. Mike read more

If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! Thank you so much Carlos and Santiago for coming to my home to help me troubleshoot my wall hung toilet. The team was very professional and down to earth. The issue with my wall hung toilet was caused by another plumber who could not fix it. I appreciate how much effort they put towards fixing the issue when the situation was far from ideal. I felt very comfortable and in good hands. The sense of relief I had when it was finally repaired was a huge weight lifted off my shoulder. I would never hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for an honest and straightforward plumber! read more

For starters they have poor work quality, excessive charges, poor communication, lack of professionalism, delays in service, not fixing the problem completely, causing further damage during repairs, unreliable scheduling, and unresponsive customer service. read more

Carlos does high quality work at a fair price. He also explains what needs done in a way I understand. read more

Had a foul smell coming from the bathroom. Called Flintridge Rooter and spoke to Carlos. He was friendly and professional. Came by later that afternoon. Diagnosed the problem correctly and fixed the problem right away. Very satisfied with his service. Would definitely recommend him. read more

Carlos was very helpful and thorough. He made sure to explain certain plumbing areas in our home but didn't try to sell me on fixing things. He did a great job with what we needed at the time and we will use him again in the future. read more

I wish I could give Carlos 10 stars for his service, professionalism and ability to come when we needed him. We have an older home with small 2" lines. He came our promptly, diagnosed the issue and within an hour was able to get our two clogged toilets and issue with the shower back up and running in no time. He is trustworthy and honest. Will be using him again and recommending him to family + friends. Thank you Carlos for your help. We were desperate for a plumber and we can't describe how grateful we are that you came in a time of need. read more

I had their service twice and can't believe how reliable and professional they are. Thankful!

Carlos is the best! He knows his stuff and does a great job. His prices are very reasonable. He has done great work for me, and I have referred him to my family and to a couple of friends in need of a good plumber. My mom had a plumbing issue in her kitchen which another plumber hadn't been able to resolve in four visits. Carlos fixed it the first time he was there. Give him a try! You won't be disappointed. read more

What can I say about Carlos.....honest efficient and overall great technician. If I can give him 6 stars I would. It's always the worst when the water heater goes out when you have kids. I texted him late Friday night. He came first thing Saturday morning. Got the problem resolved in less than an hour. It's just amazing to have technicians like this in the neighborhood. He's my go to and share his contact with all my friends and family. read more

I have used Carlos two times and was wonderful repair man. He handled the problems with no hesitation and I certainly will continue to use him. Felt he was very reasonable and glad I found him. J.Privett read more

We used them a couple of times and are extremely satisfied with each job done! Highly recommend! Price, quality of work, responsiveness - everything on point! read more

I hired Flintridge Rooter to fix my pinhole leak that I found in my copper pipe located in my crawl space. Carlos arrived on time and gave me a free estimate and told me how he would be able to fix it. He answered all of my questions and he was super courteous and friendly. His hourly rate was fair and reasonable given that he has many years of experience. So I ended up hiring him. I am glad I did. I would whole heartedly recommend him to others looking for plumbing services in the foothill area including Pasadena, Burbank, Glendale, Tujunga, La Crescenta, and La Canada Flintridge. read more

My Hansgrohe shower starting leaking.... And I've had other plumbers look at it before to terrible results. Carlos came in, knew the shower installation and had two possibilities. First was quickly crossed off and he fixed the second. Problem solved with a new cartridge. Fast, knowledgeable, efficient, and just a great guy. I'm so stoked to have found Carlos. read more

We were lucky enough to stumble across this company about 6 years ago. Carlos has been absolutely incredible! We have worked with him dozens of times he has been there for us in emergencies with very fast response time. He has been there for us with big really devastating issues. He has problem solved with us and taught us so much along the way. If your looking for an honest, knowledgeable plumber this is the one. read more

Carlos was outstanding, took my call when he was heading home from work. I explained to him we needed our old toilet removed, and new toilet installed. He decided to swing by and take a look. He examined our space, our old unit, and new unit and quickly said hey let's just do this now. I was so impressed that he really wanted to help us. The job ended up taking a little longer because Carlos discovered a bit of leaking in the base board around our old toilet, but he advised us to keep an eye out, and said he would follow up to make sure the new toilet wasn't leaking as well. He was clean as well putting covers on his shoes every time he entered our home. A real professional, fair pricing, great work, comes highly recommended! Would use him again and again for our plumbing needs. read more

Super responsive and came right away with our emergency. He figured out the problem quickly and was able to fix is quickly too!

Carlos came out on a Sunday last minute and helped with a leaking water heater! He was amazing, knowledgeable and very professional. I truly appreciated his attention to urgency because the water already leaked out two feet on my carpet. Thank you so very much!! read more

We've had Carlos over a couple of times now and he's terrific. Great communicator and super conscientious and diligent about his work. Love his trustworthy style and excellent work quality - would highly recommend him! read more

Trying to make this easy: if you have a plumbing problem, the solution is to call Carlos at Flintridge Rooter & Fine Plumbing. As noted in so many positive reviews posted on Yelp and based on a number of jobs they have done for us, we recommend Flintridge Rooter without hesitation. Carlos and Santiago do a great job and indeed, we depend on them for all our plumbing needs. Carlos has fixed leaks, replaced pipes, installed faucets, and repaired toilet valves for us--- so our assessment is not based on just a single job, but many. The value placed on this endorsement is evidenced by the repeat business Flintidge has earned. read more

Carlos at Flintridge Rooter is the type of plumber all others should strive to be. I have now used him on two separate occasions (one for a commercial space and one for my home) and both times he has been on time with his appointments, thorough in his explanations, transparent in his work and efficient. I had my water heater giving me issues and ended up calling someone else who couldn't/ wouldn't make the effort to diagnose the problem. So I gave carlos a ring (which I probably shouldve done in the first place. He spent the time to ask the right questions, came out and fixed the issue. The other guys were telling me that I needed to replace the whole unit, but Carlos was able to have it up and running without upselling me on repairs I didnt need. If you're looking for an honest plumber, who knows what they are doing, is more than competitively priced and actually cares about guest service, please please call him. read more

Fantastic plumber. Great value and services. I used them to install all new fixtures in my new bathroom. Would recommend!

Carlos is all around fabulous. We trust him. That's huge. Second VERY conscientious and knowledgeable and treats your home like his own. Highly recommended for any plumbing need. Carlos is wonderful. read more

Carlos is an exceptional plumber and even a nicer person. I have used Carlos multiple times in my house with the installation of new fixtures and he always does a terrific job. He is very neat, never leaves a mess and is a great communicator so you know exactly what he is going to do. Also, his pricing is very fair. I also used Carlos in my mom's house to repair a wall hung toilet. After contacting more than a dozen plumbers only Carlos knew how to repair this toilet and did an excellent job making mom very happy. If you are fortunate enough to live in an area in which Carlos works, I cannot recommend him more highly. He is very honest and it will be a pleasure to have him in your home. It is very rare to find any contractor or trades person that you feel so confident about. Carlos is one of those special people, read more

Carlos is absolutely the best. He does a great job and I really appreciate his explanation of what to do to keep your plumbing in good shape over the long term. read more

Another issue, another quick solution from Carlos. Had gas leaks confirmed throughout the crawlspace and SocalGas had to shut off gas late saturday night. Carlos was able to come on short notice sun morning and repair/rethread all the areas on a Sunday within a few hours so that we could get our gas restored. A huge help as always. read more

I called Flintridge Rooter & Fine Plumbing when our back bathroom was overflowing every time we used the shower or toilet. Carlos snaked the pipes and found that our lovely child threw baby wipes down the toilet; 5 to be exact. As a precaution, he cleared out the pipe all the way to the sewer. Carlos was professional, courteous, and fast! We highly recommend Flintridge Rooter! read more

Woke up to a leaking ceiling, something nobody every wants. Carlos was on time and very helpful in identifying the link and issue. Pricing was fair as well. I would definitely recommend. read more

He is conscientious and personable, truly professional. We feel fortunate to have had his services and highly recommend him. read more
