"I set an appointment with Albano's Plumbing & Drain for Friday which made it easy for me and the guy was right on time, pulled the trap apart and fixed it. They were really good. They answered the phone and they were very professional, they told me when they could be there and when they couldn't, they gave me a choice of when they could come, the guy who came over was nice and clean and he did a really good job. I was very happy. He removed the sink, fixed it, put everything back, cleaned up and he was done."

"I used HomeAdvisor to get 3 quotes for a gas pipe run that was approximately 65 feet for a fire pit and teed off for a future gas grill. I had a total of 4 quotes, one from my regular plumber that I have used for about 4 years and the 3 from Home Advisor. MVP Plumbing not only gave me the best quote but were also very detailed on what and how they were going to accomplish the job. No questions were left unanswered and Cesar was very detailed whenever I asked any questions. These guys are top notch when it comes to service and I am so happy with MVP Plumbing that from here on out I will be calling them from any plumbing service! Great Job MVP Plumbing!"

"This company was FANTASTIC. Javier completely understood the problem and didn't waste my time or money. Never tried to upsell like one of the past plumbers tried to pull with me. This was my third plumbing company before going through HomeAdvisor for Alliance United. You all saved me $3,500 in unnecessary work!!! Thank you!!!"

"Kenny has been my go-to plumber since I bought the house 4 years ago. He always gives me an honest assessment of the issues and does professional work every time. I've used Burris Brothers for almost all of my plumbing projects big and small. Very happy with the quality of work."

"I needed two drains cleared so I went ahead and bought an Angie's List promo coupon for $99 for $200 of service and had them snake a couple drains for me and check out some other issues I was having.  The technician who came out was Joe.  He was very knowledgeable and experienced and totally fixed my problem quickly.  If I'd known the quality of service I'd get I would have called them first before attempting to snake the first drain myself (unsuccessfully, obviously). He was also very punctual which is HUGE for me because I have to drive 30 minutes to the building to meet any contractors and I don't live there so waiting around for hours is a major problem.  I'm always apprehensive about hiring contractors I haven't previously hired but these guys were fantastic.  I'll definitely be calling them for any future plumbing issues."

"Kevin showed up on time and was very friendly and social. He did the job quickly and didn't leave a big mess. Nor did he charge outrageous prices. He had the tools he needed in his van and even explained his inspiration for his logo. Thank you Kevin! If we need any other plumbing needs I will contact him again."

"I purchased a water heater from Do It Right Plumbers . The tech, Chris, was on time and very thorough The installation went as smooth as could be. When the work was finished, you wouldn't have known any work had been done. It was that clean. Not only would I recommend them, but I also plan to use them in the future for my plumbing needs."

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

You must choose between copper and PEX materials for re-piping to handle hard water in Downey. Decide whether to route new pipes through walls or break concrete for slab foundation repairs. Choose trenchless or open-cut excavation for sewer repairs to preserve your landscaping. You must also approve the installation of seismic gas shutoff valves and water softeners to meet strict CA regulations during plumbing upgrades.

Helpful?

Discolored water and low pressure strongly indicate failing galvanized pipes in older Downey homes. Warm spots on your floor or unexplained water bills point to patched slab leaks needing proper repair. Repeated sewer backups signal severe root intrusion in clay soils. Look for non-standard pipe configurations under sinks, which reveal unpermitted plumbing work. Replace failing water heaters affected by hard water scale throughout CA.

Helpful?

Functional plumbing requires permits and inspections to ensure compliance with CA codes, while cosmetic updates like swapping a showerhead do not. Cosmetic projects in older Downey homes expose hidden functional issues, such as corroded pipes behind walls. Both types require strict adherence to statewide water efficiency standards. Hire a licensed contractor to handle required permits and manage overlapping local requirements safely.

Helpful?

Opening walls during plumbing repairs in Downey exposes unpermitted prior work requiring mandatory correction. You face additional expenses for licensed asbestos and lead paint abatement in pre-1980 homes. Breaking concrete to access slab leaks adds significant labor and restoration expenses. Extensive tree root damage and overlapping regional sewer regulations also introduce unforeseen expenses. Install water softeners to prevent hard water from ruining new CA fixtures.

Helpful?

Ignoring slow drains in Downey allows tree roots to damage pipes hidden in clay-heavy soil. Avoid using chemical drain cleaners, as they deteriorate older cast iron pipes. Flush your water heater annually to clear hard water sediment common in CA. Run plenty of water through garbage disposals to prevent grease buildup, and avoid overloading washing machine lines during everyday plumbing use.
