We are a family owned & operated plumbing company offering a variety of services. Our skills range from emergency sewer cleaning to high class bathroom remodels. Because we are a small family owned business we have significantly less overhead that some of our larger competitors so we can offer lower prices.

"Excellent. Highly recommended"

"My experience with Marc at Make it Drain was fantastic. We had a problem with leakage under the house that we thought was fixed when we bought the place. Turns out two years later that something wasn't done right and we had wastewater accumulating from the kitchen. Marc from Make it Drain came out on short notice on the weekend to look at the job, and he gave me a great estimate, educated me about the issues, talked me through the process, and had a friendly but no-pressure approach. I had several other companies out to make estimates, and one of the estimates was three times what Marc quoted me!! When we arranged the job it was easy, and Marc and his guys showed up on time, did exactly what he said he'd do, kept everything super clean, took pictures to show me what was going on, and continued to keep me looped in so I understood everything. It was a painless process, done quickly and professionally. I will call them anytime I have plumbing needs!"

JOIN OUR PLUMBING FAMILY TODAY Plumbing problems are some of the most common issues that a homeowner will face. Plumbing is also one job that many people choose not to tackle on their own. Sometimes a problem is simple and can be fixed easily, while other times the job may require the help of a professional. Without the knowledge of a skilled plumber, it can be difficult to know how big of a project you are getting yourself into, and it can be even more difficult to fix the problem right the first time. No matter how big or small the job may be, for those living in the greater Los Angeles area, the professional technicians of Reckon & Reckon Plumbing are there to help. At Reckon & Reckon Plumbing, it is our goal to become the service you call whenever you have any type of plumbing problem. We have been in business since the 1920's, and we pride ourselves on gaining the trust of our customers and becoming their family plumbers. Our technicians are highly-trained, knowledgeable, professional, friendly, clean, and respectful individuals, and it is their goal to provide the solution you need in the most timely and cost effective manner possible. They come to your home with fully-stocked work vehicles and state of the art plumbing equipment, which means that they will not need to leave your home until the job is done. When they do leave, they make sure to leave your home looking even better than it did before their arrival. Although many other plumbing companies charge by the hour for their services, at Reckon & Reckon Plumbing we charge by the job. This means that our customers do not have to worry about incurring costly overtime charges simply because a job takes longer than anticipated. It also means that our customers know up front how much the service is going to cost.

"Such an amazing company to work with! From my very first interaction wit Clarissa, I knew this would be a great fit. Clarissa is super friendly and so helpful while being extremely professional by answering all of my questions and concerns. A lot of our tenants are also very happy with the service that Steve and his team provide by being timely, clean, and providing exceptional customer service. Highly recommended! Thanks Clarissa and everyone at Reckon !"

Pipease, Inc - Repipe & More was initially established in San Fernando, California by the Peralta Brothers. Through a combined effort the brothers managed to gather all of the industry's best repipers and form Pipease. As strong company we pay EXTRA attention to detail and give 100% to all of our projects. We made a promise to every single one of our potential customers when we opened our doors for business. And that promise was to treat every single job as if it was our first.

"The crew arrived on time, and let me know whenever they needed to turn off the water, and announced when they were almost done so I could plan out my day. They hauled away the old water heater which saved us a lot of time and effort to remove. Overall very professional and reasonably priced."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

It’s sometimes possible to install a water softener yourself, but it’s usually better to hire a water softener professional to get the job done. Water softeners involve plumbing and electrical work, which usually require permits and a certified expert to sign off on the work. Not only is it dangerous to work with these utility lines, but it’s also not legal in many areas. Plus, improper installation or system sizing might not fix your hard water issue and could lead to an increased risk of leaks, fires, and other property damage. 

A lower-end water softener would cost around $900, not including installation. Each home has different requirements, water hardness, and number of inhabitants, so there’s a huge range in pricing—$600 to over $6,000. The average water softener repair bill is around $500, meaning it’s a much better option to repair any issues and only replace your softener if absolutely necessary. 

The license requirements for water softener installation depend on your location. Some municipalities require that the installer hold a plumbing license, some require a permit and an inspection, but no license for the installer, and some require a permit and a license for the installer. Regardless of the local laws in your area, it’s always a good idea to hire a licensed plumber or installer. These pros will install your system properly and have the experience to size the system appropriately. Use Angi’s state licensing tool to check your installer’s license status.

The best way to fix hard water in a shower is by installing a water softener system. This is the only way to truly ensure that hard water doesn't enter your shower—or any part of your home beyond the water softener. Most other methods are temporary fixes. While you can choose a shower filter, these filters aren’t as effective and may not remove many contaminants that cause limescale and hard water stains.

Most experts agree there’s not much difference health-wise between hard water versus soft water. That said, hard water is more likely to cause skin dryness and issues that go along with it, like an itchy or flaky scalp. Hard water can also decrease the life span of your household appliances and make it more difficult for soap to do its job.
