High recommendation. This is the 2nd time I called Victor for a plumbing emergency. Once again, so very impressed with their work. Also, best prices. Called yesterday late afternoon, estimate this morning, was back with a new water heater an hour later & replaced my water heater. His son Victor works with him too. Very happy. Very satisfied. Highly recommend. I've sent him to 2 other friends recently & they were also super satisfied. Thank you Victor & Victor! read more

VRG Plumbing - Plumbing Near Me

My plumbing problems always seem to occur on weekends, and I'm so thankful that Victor from VRG Plumbing is there to solve them. Each time he has gotten back to me within the hour, and he's come to fix the problem very quickly, even on weekends. He is thorough, honest, professional, and efficient. He's helped me save money by pointing out when it's better to fix something and when it needs to be replaced. Most recently, he replaced my leaking hot water heater, and showed up even before the time he said he would. He kept to the quote he gave me, even when he had to spend extra time on an installation issue that he had to sort out. Then he contacted me the next day to check that everything was still running smoothly. I would give VRG Plumbing 6 stars if I could. I highly recommend Victor and VRG Plumbing! read more

Still haven't heard from Victor... We have an active gas leak from an appliance that he installed and he is completely not responding to polite texts and phone calls. DO NOT HIRE HIM if you'd like to have the piece of mind that he'll be there if anything goes wrong... read more

Our water heater went out on a Friday evening. The plumber who installed it was not open on weekends, so we texted Victor on Saturday morning. He responded quickly and came out to take a look in a couple of hours. It turned out that a part needed to be replaced. Victor found the part at a supplier on Monday morning and replaced it that afternoon. Great service, and we were happy to find someone who could help on a weekend. read more

I've used Victor a few times in the past, for jobs ranging from replacing a corroded p trap and assembly, to replacing an entire shower enclosure due to faulty installation by a prior contractor. He and his team are always prompt, professional and efficient. Highly, highly recommend. read more

I requested that a slow foundation drain be routed on a non emergency basis. Victor promptly engaged with me, Set an appointment kept it and charged reasonably. There were complications which he addressed professionally. I would hire him again anytime. read more

We had a job scheduled with another plumber who canceled at the last minute. Victor and his crew not only came by to give a quote that same day, but also were able to complete the work that day! They did a great job. read more

Great service! Victor was quick and I respond and offered to set up service immediately. Very convenient! great price! I recommend!

Victor (Sr. & Jr.) not only installed a faucet very well and quickly, they also talked me out of cutting out an undermount sink after explaining the risks. Could not recommend them any more highly - trustworthy, professional, excellent people and business. Six stars! read more

I've worked with VRG Plumbing on three occasions: once to clear out a blocked sewer pipe, once to inspect my house for a mystery leak, and once to replace a hot water heater. All three times my expectations were exceeded. The first two times I worked with Victor Sr. But for the water heater I worked with Victor Jr. and Walter. Senior is super-nice and incredibly knowledgeable, but Jr. and Walter really blew me away when they replaced my old hot water heater this past Friday. We didn't know it but we were way out of code in our mid-century home. So they not only replaced the hot water heater, they made major improvements. They anchored and braced it properly, installed the correct pressure valve and routed it to an outside hose bib, and installed a drain pan where I can place a leak monitor. They basically brought us into the 21st century and their pricing was very fair. They're a small, family operation, so you have to have patience and flexibly when working with them. If an emergency comes up, you might be rescheduled. But guess what--when you have an emergency, they will be there for you. Regardless, your patience will be richly rewarded with best-in-class plumbing at prices you can feel good about. I love that they are a family operation and not some big company that bills at big prices and sends out rando dudes with cheap parts and cheap brands that won't last. And that reminds me--I'm impressed with the quality of the parts and brands VRG Plumbing uses. They don't cut corners. You get great value in what you're paying for--for both parts AND labor. I don't even shop around anymore. VRG is it for us and I can't tell you how comforting it is to know a truly good plumber that you can rely on time and time again. THANK YOU Victor Sr., Jr., and Walter! read more

They responded right away when I inquired via Yelp. Then they showed up the next day for my emergency repairs! They were straight with us and gave us a reasonable rate for the repair. They were able to finish the repairs within couple of hours. I'm still utilizing them on a regular basis. Highly recommend. read more

Victor and team are the best. Very knowledgeable and efficient. Used them recently to replace my very old water heater, and they were thorough and fast! Will be using them for any future plumbing work. Highly recommend! read more

I needed a plumber to unclog a shower quickly. Victor was quick to reply on a Saturday with a reasonable quote. When he arrived to our appointment, he greeted me by name and with a smile. The shower clog was not as simple as I originally thought, but Victor was very patient and worked systematically to get my pipe unclogged. The work required him to claw underneath the house in a small claw space. I felt bad, but was glad he found the problem and unclog the pipes. I highly recommend Victor for his professionalism and workmanship. He will get the job done whatever it takes. Thanks Victor. read more

VRG Plumbing came highly recommended by a friend. I requested a quote through Yelp last Sunday evening and got a quick response. We chatted and I gave my phone number and they said they'd call me Monday morning. I said I was free between 9am and 11am and they confirmed by saying 'ok'. I never received a call on Monday or any other message via Yelp. I messaged them again through Yelp on Tuesday and never heard anything back. Today is Friday. read more

Pleased overall with the quality and end result of the faucet installation. Victor jr and Walter came out whom I found to be friendly, knowledgeable and competent. Giving a rating of 3 stars because I was told a price which I assumed to be a flat rate but ended up per hour which I came to understand when time to pay up 1.5 hrs later. Pretty important detail imo especially when you're trying to pay in cash. I chose VRG because the price I was quoted was significantly less than all the other businesses I was in communication with. In the end I paid close to the same cost as the other quotes so I did not receive the savings benefit I had hoped for. read more

Victor has helped us out with a few plumbing issues and I highly recommend him. First of all, he's responsive, communicative, and shows up on time. He's completed all of our repairs super quickly and efficiently, minimizing disruption. And each repair he's made, though they've been somewhat small plumbing issues, has been a big improvement for us. Having a plumber I know I can rely on gives me such peace of mind. read more

I had a major clog in my kitchen drain and drano didn't work. VRG responded quickly and scheduled a next day appointment. Victor was 40 minutes late, so had to send somebody to finish the job the following day, but they did a very thorough job by replacing the pipes l, drain, and snaking. Victor also informed me that I was missing a P-trap and he explained the importance of a P trap. I appreciate his thoughtfulness. His son did not wear a mask in my house, but I did not set the boundary of asking for him to wear the mask, so I do take some responsibility. Next time I will ask. I also had ask to get a receipt a few times so that I can get reimbursed by my landlord. I would hire VRG again. read more

Victor was able to help me out last minute with a clogged toilet. He was very efficient and professional. He explained things well and was even available for follow up questions. Super friendly. I was lucky he was available. I will definitely be calling him again for my plumbing issues. read more

I had a plumbing emergency on a Saturday and my usual plumbers were unavailable. I found Victor and he replied promptly through text. He asked for a photo of the problem, and quickly scheduled Ely to come within the hour. Ely arrived, and dealt with the problem swiftly and effectively. A life saver. I have a new go-to plumber. read more

I discovered a water leak located in my side yard of my backyard. I contacted Victor and was grateful that he responded the same day. It was a broken pipe in the wall. Victor installed a shut off valve at the site so I could turn the water main back on. Two days later, his team showed up with all the parts needed to repair the broken pipe and to replace the outdoor faucet the pipe it was connected to. VRG Plumbing did an excellent job for a reasonable price! read more

Victor and his team did excellent work for my family and I! We had a very surprising pipe burst under our house. Victor can the day we reached out and immediately got to work. He figured out how to turn off water for our home, give us water to a portion of our house while he did work, and then got his crew in the next day to install all new pipes. When there was an issue with our water pressure that wasn't even caused by their repairs, his crew came back promptly and fixed it. All is well and the price was great. Absolutely recommend! read more

I cannot recommend Victor, and VRG Plumbing more highly. I had a bunch of "little" plumbing issues that I had been avoiding dealing with. Finally, it became clear that I had a pressing plumbing issue that could not be put off...plunging and snaking was no longer enough to deal with my only toilet. I called around and realized that plumbers are very much in demand and very busy! [Since this is long, I want to put up front that this is an owner run Oakland business that is fast and friendly! If you believe in supporting the little guy, give Victor your business.] I called and talked directly to Victor. He was in San Francisco on a job, but agreed to stop by in the evening. As promised, he showed up, having been delayed by traffic, but advising me of that fact. His snake was not enough either. He advised me that if he went to the next step and was not able to fix it, I would be without my only toilet for the night. Sure enough, I had good news and bad news: the overall plumbing was not failing, but the toilet itself had a problem, and I would be visiting my friendly neighbors. Since I have an old corner toilet, I feared that it would be very difficult to replace. Victor advised me that he would make some calls and see if he could locate one. He also gave me details of his schedule with a commitment to return the following afternoon. I did research, and could not find a toilet. However, he texted me in the morning that he had located one. We agreed that it made sense to proceed with new toilet. He kept me apprised and arrived as agreed with my new toilet. Quickly I had a fancy new water saving toilet installed. I mentioned a couple of other issues that I had and, he quickly diagnosed that I did not have sufficient hot water pressure. Voila, all my avoided items were fixed in a moment! He was more than fair on the hours he charged me, especially since he had gone to the supply house and picked up the toilet in addition to spending the time calling around to locate the toilet. Victor Garcia could not have been more friendly and professional. read more

Long time customer. Hate to write this review, but Victor is too busy to pick up part and return for installation. He's been our plumber for 10 years, but no more. I've had it. read more

I've used them twice and both times it was the best service. Quick to show up and gave great advice as well. I recommend them to everyone!

I am so glad that I chose VRG Plumbing. Victor was prompt, professional, knowledgeable and affordable. He analyzed and fixed my low water pressure issue with the upstairs bathtub. Very pleased with his work. read more

We had a great experience working with Victor. He installed a leak detection device attached to our main water line, replaced our water heater, and repaired a pipe leak. He was attentive, kind and punctual. We also felt that his pricing was reasonable and work was well done. Best of all, a few days later he checked in on us to make sure the work was still satisfactory. Wonderful customer service! Would highly recommend for all plumbing needs. read more

Victor texted me back right away when I reached out to find a plumber to fix our under-sink kitchen filter installation, which my husband and I attempted to do on our own and it went awry. He was able to come by within 24 hours of my request (which wasn't an emergency, so I was quite satisfied with that response time). He showed us the problem, even explained how to remove our cabinet drawers to facilitate future plumbing issues and fixed it within one hour. Very reasonable charge for such prompt and professional service. ($130). Thank you Victor Garcia/VRG! We will be using VRG for future plumbing issues. read more

Texted Victor randomly after finding excellent reviews on yelp and within minutes he replied. Helped me fix my garbage disposal issue over the phone!!! And he would have come in person within the hour. 5 stars + for this business!!! Will definitely be using again if needed. read more

Victor is fast and knowledgeable. Very friendly and a hard worker. He came in to install a broken forged flare Nut and redo the flaring around the pipe.

I have used VRG plumbing twice. The first time was to fix leaky plumbing under by kitchen sink. And, today (the 2nd time) to replace a leaky water main valve.

I was in a pickle and needed a plumber to come remove some old rusted water hoses before Lowe's could hook up our new washer. Found Victor on Yelp and requested a quote. He called me within 10 mins, I walked him thru the issue and he said he could have his plumbers over to our location later in the day. They were able to remove both hoses (one of them took some extra work) and and hook up the new ones within the hour. Awesome service, would recommend and will definitely call for future needs. read more

VIctor was quick, efficient, fastidious and quite reasonable in the cost of repairing a leaking toilet for us. It was easy to tell from his approach, determination of the specific problem, and definitive repair that every- thing was old-hat for him. He cleaned up completely after the job. Everything done with a pleasant, cheerful attitude. read more

VRG plumbing company. Victor was recommended by next-door my Danville neighborhood website. I failed an exterior house inspection by the town of Danville who are sticklers for safety and needed help urgently before my permit expired. Victor came out and replaced the seismic gas emergency shut off valve the same day I called. Ironically enough my shower valve snapped recently so I called him out again. He returned the next day and replaced the cartridge and I'm up and running again. His attention to detail is excellent. Looking around the neighborhood he definitely secured my gas seismic valve better better than my neighbors since he used secure brackets etc. He does not appear to cut corners. Will definitely use him again for any plumbing needs. Victor 5108474334 read more
