I was a complete mess when I came home for vacation to find I had a leak. I called based off of reviews and feel so blessed I was able to get him here within 2 hours. He not only fixed everything with ease but gave me comfort knowing he was a man about his craft and what I thought was going to be a huge expense was not by any means I have him saved in my contacts and I will forever use him as my go to plumber. read more

Quick response. Luis was excellent. Friendly. Knows his stuff. Cleaned clogged kitchen drain. Cleaned MBR bath drain. Reasonably priced.

I've used them for a few years now for maintenance and have been quite happy with the service.

Needed help with a sink that kept filling up when I ran the disposal. Looking through Yelp last night, LC Real Rooter reached out right away to schedule service today. Luis just left. I see why the reviews for his company are so good! Very professional, super friendly, knowledgable, diagnosed the problem immediately - a clog in between the kitchen sink and the main sewer line. He brought in his snaking machine, and after about 25 minutes the pipes were cleared. I highly recommend LC Real Rooter & Plumbing. read more

Luis was great! We had a sewer back up and he was able to come out quickly and fix the issue. He offered a warranty of 4 months which is nice of peace of mind. Would absolutely recommend! read more

We woke up to a leak in our front yard running water down our sidewalk and driveway. LC and one other worker came the next morning on Super Bowl Sunday and finished digging and fixing the leak within 3 hours. A HUGE root was the culprit! When we can save enough, we will hire them to replace our main water line. We were happy to have our water back on! read more

LC Real Rooter & Plumbing - Replaced copper pipe and cut the tree root - Plumbing Near Me

Garbage disposal replacement. Cost $450. Very fair price. Arrived within the quoted time window, worked fast, got it done. He even replaced the pipes under my sink because mine were corroded, and he didn't charge me extra. Would use their service again. read more

Luis is awesome - always arrives on time, very professional, and has a great memory from past experience (we live in an old East Bay home with tree roots that invade the sewer line and clog it about once a year). Great guy and service! read more

I ultimately didn't end up using LC RRP, but Luis was very responsive, courteous, and pricing was very reasonable. Luis did not ghost me when I said I would not be moving forward with his service. Customer service alone was excellent. read more

They responded very quickly to my service request. Available immediately and arrived within 30 minutes. They assessed the situation and provided a reasonably priced solution. In fact, he ended up doing more work than expected, but only charged for what he quoted me for. I will use them again the next time I have plumbing issues. read more

Luis is amazing. Hard to find a professional with full expertise and your best interest at all times with honesty.

Luis did an amazing job assisting me with multiple plumbing issues both inside and out! Professional and knowledgeable. Highly recommend this great plumber and nice man. read more

LC Real Rooter responded promptly and arrived at the time promised. He ran the snake with the 4 inch blade in my main sewer line and pulled out a bunch roots. Then he ran the snake all the way to the street to make sure the pipe was clear. He helped clean up the debris that had overflowed from the cleanout. The price was reasonable, and as quoted over the phone. I will call them again the next time I need the house drain cleared. read more

Luis came out same day to help us out with a backed up sewer pipe. He was friendly, informative, arrived early and super quick. Will absolutely consider them again for any future plumbing needs. Highly recommend! read more

5 stars! Wonderful service! Got everything done in timely manner at a great price. They really came to the rescue with my emergency and they left without a mess. read more

Based on the sterling reviews on Yelp, I called to set up an appointment. Did my best to describe the problem of air/noise in the pipes and was told they couldn't help me. Really? It's just plumbing, for crying out loud! I sure didn't get the 5 star service. read more

I was in need to get a service done since my sewer was leaking. Luis was quick to get back to me with a quote and after finishing with other Job he was able to come and fixed my problem. He did a great job and was really friendly. read more

Very quick and friendly! Arrived on time and finished a tank water heater replacement in 3 hours.

I have used LC several times for a non-working bathtub drain and then again for exterior sewer blockage. Communication was clear, service prompt, and commitments met. Warranty was fully honored. Very grateful for the outstanding service and kind approach. read more

I had wasted thousands on a supposed fix for my drainage line but it turned out it wasn't quite fixed at all. Fed up, I decided to switch rooting companies and try LC. Luis picked up and within minutes we had scheduled the work for the earliest time he could make the next day. Within two hours after that, my line was clear and the nightmare that had lasted the past several months was finally put to rest for a fraction of the other prices I had paid. From what I could tell, Luis's prices are more than fair and as far as drainage issues go, he is the man. Don't waste your time and money. Call Luis. read more

Luis is very efficient and friendly. I will highly recommend him for any of your plumbing problem.

Luis installed a 50 gallon gas water heater for us to replace a smaller failing unit that was about 20 years old. He replied within minutes of asking about a quote, and when others failed to make their times, he arrived right when he said he would, and even did diagnostics for us to see if we really needed a new one. There was no pressure to take his services and he let us think about it. When we decided to go for it, Installation was flexible and he got the whole thing done in about 5 hours within 2 days of agreeing to move forward. He took care of hauling the new unit to us and hauling away all old parts. He even showed is how to troubleshoot the new unit if needed to save un-needed trips by a plumber. Excellent service! read more

Summary: Luis is excellent and was so sweet! He was quick on the response, evaluated, got to work; he was done in less than an hour. Price was also reasonable. A+ Background: The house was built in 1972. The main bathroom toilet was leaking more than acceptable *to me. As I attempted to shut off the valve to keep the toilet from running, the valve wasn't closing all the way. I guess that original 1972 valve was done. Initially, I thought, well, I could replace the toilet guts myself. Then the valve... absolutely NOT! I needed an expert. So Luis was first to respond on the project and was available to come right over. The whole thing was done in less than an hour. Couldn't be happier. And now I have a shiny, new toilet valve, too! Pro Tip: If you have a project, don't use the "yelp project" feature. It will farm your details out to several companies. (That part wasn't an issue for me.) The problem I have is Yelp charges these local businesses a small fortune to be included in this feature. Instead, just call these folks directly. There's NO reason to eat into their bottom line... just call them. You got this! Call Luis. You'll be glad you did. read more

This is the second time I've called Luis. Both times it was due to a redwood tree roots getting into my main sewer line and blocking it. Both times I called he was able to come by within an hour. Luis is so pleasant, he does a very thorough job and I will recommend him again and again. I will probably see him again in a few years, since I'm not planning to cut down my redwood tree. read more

Luis was fantastic! So responsive, friendly, honest, calm -- explained what had gone wrong with my water heater and what my options were. Took care of everything without a hitch, left things cleaner than when we started, and results A+++! Hot water again and better than ever! No one wants to replace a water heater, but Luis made it as effortless and successful as it could have been! Will definitely use again!! read more

Quick communication and great service by Luis! We had issues with our garbage disposal and he was able to come the next morning after we requested service and was able to replace it at the same time. Would recommend! Thanks again! read more

It was 11pm on a dark rainy Sunday night. First our shower started to fill up. Then the toilets water level was rising, without being flushed. Then the toilet overflowed, spewing sewage, flowing from the bathroom to the kitchen. I started dialing 24 hour roto rooters, but nobody was picking up. Nearly midnight by then, I was getting worried. Finally The Real Rooter answered. My hero. It was a nasty job, first tramping around an unlighted overgrown yard to find the cleanout. Then hauling a heavy machine up stairs and across the muddy yard to get at the roots. Finally finished in the wee hours. Priceless. Well, not cheap, but reasonable for a job like that. read more

They arrived, gave a quote and started on the job. They did an excellent job. I have used them in the past and will again in the future

Had a leak in my water main valve. Contacted some businesses on Yelp and Luis was the only one to give a straightforward estimate. He was able to come out the next day (with about 15 minutes notice!) and did a great job at a fair price. Also did a couple extra things that needed doing and gave me some good advice. read more

I can't recommend LC Real Rooter & Plumbing enough! Luis, the owner, is a super nice & friendly guy and goes out of his way to get the job done. Super prompt response and was lucky to get an assessment, quote and everything fixed in the same day! My new sink was slightly too small and Luis helped me get a new one -- super kind of him! I'm so happy with the result and knowing such an amazing plumber in my area! read more

Luis has helped us many times over the years! One infamous time was when our whole sewer line backed up just as we had company coming into town (literally as they were parking in front of our house). Gotta love it! Anyway, Luis was at our service almost immediately and solved the entire thing within an hour. Highly recommended! read more

Luis installed our water heater and had fixed a couple of things around the house. When it broke at 3pm, he said he'd be there the next morning, then canceled the next morning and was rude on top of it. What happened to customer service? Never again. Deserves zero stars. read more

We noticed a puddle/slow leak under our kitchen sink on Sunday evening and immediately reached out to a couple of plumbers. Luis was very quick to respond; he responded within a couple minutes and gave us a reasonable quote, and asked if I'd like to make an appointment for Monday morning. On the day of, Luis texted us before he got here, showed up on time, diagnosed the issue and gave me a very fair quote to fix it up right away with a new sink part. The process was quick and Luis was very efficient and friendly. Also, most importantly especially during COVID-times, Luis wore booties the whole time (which I so appreciate) and had a mask on. Before he left, I asked him about our water heater as well, which is getting up in age, and whether or not a fix or replacement would be better. He gave us a very fair quote on a water heater replacement, which we will likely be making an appointment with Luis to come back for after the holidays! Our sink is looking great now, no more leaks. If anything changes, I'll be sure to update my review. I'd definitely recommend Luis for your plumbing services - he's very cautious with COVID-precautions, very friendly, very efficient and good at what he does, and offers very fair prices. read more

Had a backup on a Sunday afternoon. LC Real Rooter called me back and was here within the hour. This is my second job with Luis, the first was a real plumbing job, new pipes, through a wall etc. LC Real Rooter was superb in each one. I don't try to search for the lowest cost when I need a plumber, and I have never regretted hiring Luis and LC Real Rooter You'd be lucky to hire them! read more

Do not use anyone else. Got immediate response. Local independent owner. Caring calm professional. Knows his stuff. Doesn't rape you. Like all other Plummer's I've experienced. You will be so pleased with this Company. I got my work done on a Saturday and he didn't charge off hours Fee. Used LC Real Rooter again. 11/23. My pump that led to front house from in-law unit failed. He came here same day later night. No annoying and costly after hours charge. Cleaned out and re-activated the pump. Didn't replace. Charged very fair price. Wonderful through service. Again highly recommended! read more

Very positive interaction with Luis. Our sewer backed up and he was here very quickly and cleared roots from our sewer line . Very personable and knowledgeable. I highly recommend him for your plumbing needs. I felt his pricing was fair. read more

I was quite upset when I tried to get some water out of the kitchen faucet, only to have the handle move with no friction... and no water! I immediately headed for Yelp to find a few places that could handle the problem as quickly as possible. Luis was the first to respond, and the only one letting me know that he could be there in about an hour. He arrived on time, took a look at the situation, and brought in a replacement faucet. He also changed the shutoff valves, which were old and would probably not survive the change! Within about 45 minutes, we had a new faucet, tested, installed and ready to go. His prices were reasonable and he was quick and clean. Could not have wanted anything better! read more

We had a large leak on our water main line right past the meter that was pouring water out into the street. I was able to quickly shut off the main but needed a professional to fix the leak and get our water back on. I am super happy we called Luis. We scheduled for the next day but when he found out we were without water he figured out a way to squeeze us in same day. It was super nice of him and we really appreciated it. He was actually there within a couple of hours and gave us a very reasonable quote. He and his assistant fixed the problem in an hour and did a really nice job. Everything was extremely professional from the workmanship to the customer service. We will definitely be using Luis in the future, it was a really great experience. Also we have water on again! You forget how much you take it for granted until you don't have it anymore. Thanks again Luis, you're a life-saver! read more
