I can't tell enough about Ceasar and his son. Great work, honest and reasonable prices. They provide good quality solution rather than trying to fix the issue by trial and error. I highly recommend . Hafez read more

I had a leaking bathroom faucet and Cesar was quick to respond. I sent him pictures of the problem and he installed a new faucet. Just be aware if you do get a faucet with a pop up drain it is extra labor but it is convenient to use. Cesar was friendly, respectful, and knowledgeable. My daughter is special needs and he was very kind and respectful to her. He kept the area clean, noticed other plumbing issues I had, and he even offers a 30 day guarantee in case anything happens. The installation looks great and so far running smoothly--no leaks or drips! I will definitely use his services again as he is a certified handyman. Thanks so much Cesar! read more

My laundry room was flooded as my faucet that connects to my washer was leaking. The water reached my basement and the walls around the washer was damaged. I tried to contact multiple plumbing companies around Castro valley and Hayward but I was either getting very high quotes or they were only willing to put the walls back after opening them to fix the pipe. Cesar was willing to not only fix the leaking pipe problem but also put my walls back together. The best part is that he does not charge an hourly rate, rather charges a flat fee for the entire work including parts. He was also willing to come in the same day and fix everything up in under 3 hours and charge a very reasonable price. He was also very patient with all my questions and helped me understand how to avoid any leaks in the future. On top of this, he also gave me a 6 month guarantee, where he would come and fix the problem for free if the leak persists. If you need any plunking needs, Cesar from Lion Rooter and Plumbing is your guy! read more

Lion Rooter And Plumbing - Almost finishing up! - Plumbing Near Me

Cesar is awesome! He painted our wall after the plumbing work. Look how amazing his work is! Painting is indeed an art. We also have a wall that had wall paper underneath. The plumbing work had to cut into the wall and take away the wall paper for a specific area. Cesar was able to paint the wall perfectly that we could't tell the difference. He also helped us to enlarge the door of the closet that stores the water heater and HVAC in the garage. He is punctual and gets work done. He is reliable and responsible. We will definitely recommend him to our friends in the future. read more

Do NOT bother calling anyone else! Cesar is the guy you want working on your plumbing problem! He was first to respond and came within 30 minutes of my response back to him. He is knowledgeable and offers several choices in fixing your problem. He got the job done right and in record time. The next time you have a plumbing issue, I highly recommend Cesar for the job! read more

Very understanding and came in right away for my needed emergency service. Even though it was late at night going to the early morning hours, Cesar made sure the main clog has been resolved. read more

We found Lion Rooter on Yelp and the reviews were right! Cesar is just great. He was quick to respond, has competitive pricing and gets the job done quickly and professionally. Our 50 year old house had galvanized pipes that left our water turning orange after being away for a weekend. Disgusting!!!! We decided it was finally time to repipe our house with copper pipes. He came to our house to assess our needs and gave us a quote. Once we decided to go with him he came the next week and completed the huge job with his team in 2 days. He found that apparently our toilet had been leaking under our crawl space every time we flushed it and into our sub flooring of our bathroom. We had been planning to remodel our bathroom anyways and he offered his handyman services to help us complete this. He replaced the flooring and installed new tiles, shower doors etc. and got it all done in record timing allowing us to have a brand new bathroom for our thanksgiving party. We are very happy with our new bathroom renovation and feel confident our new pipes are so much healthier for our family. read more

We called three plumbers yesterday and no-one answered our call. As soon as I called Lion Rooter, Cesar answered the call and was very courteous; he gave us an exact time he would arrive and as soon as he came he made sure to take his shoes off; he and his associate were wearing their masks and they quickly laid down a protection mat so that they would not dirty anything up. It was AMAZING how fast they worked as a team and they had the problem fixed in no time!!! They went over and above what any other plumber would do and they patched up the open wall where they found the leak. That wall now looks as if nothing ever happened. They also set our outside water valve to the correct psi pressure. What I truly appreciated the most was that Cesar and his partner did not try to take advantage of us; they were very honest in their pricing and we felt we were 'in good hands'. In addition, he fixed a toilet that had been leaking upstairs the next day (today), because we asked him to repair the wall today (the next day) because we wanted to make sure that the leak was the only one and he went out of his way to come back out to our house. He was very prompt and spoke Spanish to my mom (a HUGE PLUS!!!). I would 110% recommend Cesar and his business partner to anyone who wants someone that is professional, CLEAN, and very reasonably priced...for sure. And one more thing, it doesn't matter at what time you need a plumber...he will come out practically at anytime. What a 'true gem' in this day and age. read more

Cesar was very responsive and great to work with. I sent out a quote request on Saturday late evening for a clogged kitchen drain, and Cesar responded right away, and he was here the next morning. He was observant and solved not only the immediate problem but also flagged a more chronic issue and leakage under the house. He pulled together a crew quickly and fixed the chronic issue the very next day. His job was done professionally and cleanly. His pricing is also very reasonable. read more

Our bathtub's shower head started leaking about 10 to 20 gallons of water an hour and cannot be stopped. Went thru Yelp trying to get a few quotes and stated "Emergency Repair". Cesar replied to my message within minutes, and after a couple of Q and A's over the phone, showed up in 90 minutes or so. He got to work right away and completed the job for a reasonable price (I already had the expensive cartridge sent to me from Hansgrohe a few years ago due to an unrelated issue). I then had Cesar replaced a busted toilet on-off valve and my leaky backyard faucet (I was going to try fixing it myself but couldn't figured out how to remove the unit since the homebuilder welded it to the pipe). He said since he was already around he can do it cheaper. It was a bargain. I highly recommend Cesar/Lion Rooter for any plumbing related projects. Great guy and nice to work with. BTW, don't buy Hansgrohe's stuff, expensive, over engineered, and tough to get replacement. read more

We had a plumbing issue at 1pm on a Sunday and need assistance right away. Everyone was telling us the earliest is tomorrow, but Cesar's said he could come around 4 or 5 pm. He arrived even earlier at 3pm and was able to diagnose, explain to us the issue and fix the problem in no time. I truly recommend him and we'll definitely be calling him for again in the future. read more

Installed the gas stove to the gas line. Nice communication, on time arrival and good job!

The service I received was exceptional! Cesar was professional, courteous, very helpful with my plumbing problem. First time calling for help! The price was great, and overall value of the service was quick and got the job done right! I was impressed and will call again for future reference. I'll make sure to pass this plumber to my family, friends, and coworkers. Thank you! read more

Cesar is so great! My kitchen sink started leaking Sunday night and I asked for quotes on Monday. He responded and sent his contact info, answered his phone immediately and arranged to come out the next day. He arrived when he said he woken, diagnosed the issue accurately and repaired it. All under an hour! During the service he was supremely professional, courteous and friendly. He even asked if I wanted him to take his shoes off! Highly recommend Cesar for your plumbing needs!!! read more

We hired Cesar's team for toilets installation. Cesar is very responsive and punctual, the pricing he quoted was decent and he did a good job for us. The only reason for reducing a star is the below: We wanted hand showers(bidets) for the toilets installed too, which we hadn't requested in the estimate earlier. We could've done it ourselves as on the older ones, but since they were changing into new ones asked them to fit. The pricing for fitting the bidets seemed a bit expensive, as he mentioned each new item has an additional price. Otherwise he did a good job, cleaned up and hauled away old items too. read more

Our toilet was clogged so I called Cesar up because I had a good experience with him last time. He gave me a reasonable price and got the job done quickly while educating me about how the pipes under the toilet works. read more

Our kitchen sink got clogged. I asked around on Yelp later in the night and got back from Cesar early next morning. He offered same day service with a reasonable price. He came with all the equipments and experience needed for this job and fixed the clogging within an hour. He was very good at his job. And nice as well. I will recommend him to my neighbors if they want to find a plumber next time. read more

Great and prompt service. We reached out for plumbing services and got an immediate response and clear expectations for pricing. Would highly recommend read more

I clearly don't know my own strength, and when I tried to turn the water off at the shut-off valve, I broke it, leaving us in a state where our water-pressure throughout the house was...poor. Thank god for Cesar, who responded quickly, turned up bright and early the next day, and replaced the busted valve in no time at all. I honestly can't remember the last time I had someone turn up _early_ to fix something around the house. Hopefully nothing else breaks out here, but if it does, I know who to call! read more

HIRE THIS MAN. My wife and I have had such varied experiences with contractors, but Cesar is a gem. He is honest, responsive, and extremely professional. We had a minor shower leak and went through a variety of unreliable contractors before we found Cesar on a Yelp. Cesar was incredibly easy to work with and beyond honest. I offered to front him money for a part he had to buy and he declined my offer. It's so hard to find excellent contractors and Cesar is the real deal. read more

Had a kitchen sink drain cleaned out. Good communication, friendly, and quick service!

I needed help with my tub/shower as water kept coming out of the faucet even when the shower was on. Cesar came out for free estimate and then followed up a few days later to do the actual fix . He was professional and did the job efficiently. Will definitely be calling Lion Rooter and Plumbing going forward. read more

Cesar was very responsive and had a good suspicion of the problem I was having with my toilet. We were able to schedule a convenient time to investigate the issue, and he was able to fix the issue promptly. The whole process was smooth from communication, to service, to payment. Thank you! read more

I needed a new toilet installed in a mobile home, and I also needed the p-trap changed out in a hallway tub. They gave me an accurate estimate for the work and provided a variety of times. I asked for work on another project, and they let me know that they do not do that type of work; they didn't try to do something that they weren't 100% confident in. They came on time to the job and did exactly what they said they would do without cutting corners. I provided a toilet and a drain plug; they brought the piping and the knowledge of how to make it all work correctly. They made sure that I could see that their work was finished and water tight before they closed up. They did a neat job and were respectful of the house (no shoes in the house). Honest, punctual, and competent. I'll definitely keep them in mind for my next plumbing job! read more

I have hired Cesar for 2 separate projects so far - replacing old cast iron sink with a newer stainless steel one, and snaking one of the bathtub drains. He has been very responsive and provides high quality work. I would definitely hire him for other plumbing related projects! read more

TLDR - I had a wonderful experience with Cesar and his team. They were very courtesy, respectful and professional, ensuring that I had a working garbage disposal within 2 hours. Additionally Cesar also made some recommendations for other issues I did not think of while on-site, so I really appreciate the care and consideration. Would highly recommend! Background: I contacted Cesar via the Yelp app as I needed to replace the garbage disposal and P trap. Within an hour, he responded with his availability to schedule a call. Although I wasn't able to meet at the time, I called Cesar the next morning and he picked up immediately, giving a quick consultation. After I described what I needed, Cesar assured me that he would have all the required materials and would be available within 2 hrs. When Cesar and the team arrived, they were quick, efficient and very professional. Total time was less than 75 minutes. Throughout the process the team communicated and ensured I was happy with the replacement and materials used. Additionally, they also identified that the sealant around the kitchen sink and under the counter was deteriorating and recommended that it should be replaced to maintain the integrity of the cabinets. The feedback was much appreciated and Cesar was able to reapply a new layer of sealant. It is clear that Cesar and the team take pride in their services and customers. Overall really enjoyed the experience and am very thankful for the team! read more

I called Cesar for having a look at our kitchen sink to replace the faucet. He did point out that the sink plumbing itself had a leak and would be good to take care of it now rather than later. He gave us a quote for doing both the faucet and the plumbing repairs underneath the sink and replacing the insinkerator. He then bought all the parts, started the repairs. Mid way through he pointed out that the valves were no longer compatible with the faucet pipes and would need to be replaced and provided a quote for that. We approved the additional work and then Cesar completed and did a great job. The new plumbing looks much cleaner and organized than what we had. During the plumbing testing it also loosened some gunk in the kitchen sewer line and Cesar immediately and cleanly took care of it by opening the emergency kitchen outlet which was very good thinking. He also did some caulking work for the sink and that was well done too. Overall 5 star for his work, but one star less as he can do a better job of estimating/providing what additional work can come up during routine repairs. read more

Our sink in the laundry room flooded so we messaged Cesar on Yelp and he responded really fast and showed up really fast as well. He and his partner were able to unclog the pipes really fast with his equipment. I highly recommend Cesar to anyone who needs plumbing help. I would definitely hire him again! Honest work and honest pricing. He's not out to cheat you or overcharge you. Honest recommendations as well! Thanks again Cesar! read more

Cesar was responsive and we were able to negotiate a good time for the visit. Originally he was going to help us with 1 bathroom having a slow drain, but after he fixed the first one, we asked him to help with the other one as well. He got it done during the first trip and both bathrooms will great results. read more

Cesar is an honest guy. He told me what was wrong from the start and fixed it. While the other guy came before him told us that we need to change the pipes. Which means creating 30+ holes in the walls and $10k. I'm grateful for your help. Thank you so very much. read more

My bathtub spout has been dripping for a few months. I replaced the cartilage ring fitting the handle but it didn't help. The loosened part of the water pipe was actually underneath the wall panel. After seeing photos and description of my issue, Cesar gave me a fair quotation right away (unlike many other contractors who can only give an estimate after a paid site visit). Cesar arrived promptly with all the tools at the designated time. He meticulously changed the defected part of the pipe network. And after he fixed the pipe issue, he put back the cut wall panel with such craftsmanship that even the most demanding client cannot have any complaint. Cesar is honest, friendly, down-to-earth and professional. Can't be more happy about his work. read more

They were really good and efficient in replacing the leaking toilet tank. Recommended

Our toilet was clogged and I tried for days to clear it. I was quoted a price and it was very reasonable. When he got here he couldn't clear it but he went above and beyond and removed my toilet and found what was causing the back up. We were both surprised! A bottle! He was very professional. When entering the house he removed his shoes and went right to work. He kept me up to date on what he was doing and when he had to try something else he asked me first and gave be the breakdown. I will definitely be calling him again for any plumbing issues. read more

César responded quickly to my online request to install a finicky bidet and was able to come out the next morning.

I reached out for jetter service after the first plumbers that came out couldn't fully clear the clog in our lines and Cesar responded very quickly. He came out and did a great job. He showed me the issue in the pipes and explained what was going on. Really appreciate his expertise and most importantly, his honesty. I highly recommend him. We have a leak in our bathroom and I will be calling Cesar again to fix it and replace some stuff too. Thank you Cesar! read more

We bought a new home where a couple of the sinks were leaking, the water pressure was too high, and the previous owner for whatever reason had ripped out all the sink stoppers throughout the house. We hired Cesar to repair all of the above items, including replacing the pressure regulator outside the house. Cesar and his colleague worked for several hours to get the work done, efficiently and with high quality. Very happy with the end result. read more
