"Francisco is a pro! He came promptly even though it was a last minute request. His quote was several hundred dollars cheaper than the others. He was fast and efficient. Job was done within an hour. Definitely a keeper! . I would highly recommend FDL to friends and family. Don’t bother with other plumbers. FDL is knowledgeable, efficient and reasonable. He made my day and restored my faith in good people."

"Robert responded to my Angi's List request within an hour of placing my request. He was very prompt with his communication, arrived exactly when he said heâ d arrive. He drove all the way from Oakland to San Jose to buy a sump pump that I needed during the biggest storm of the year because every other store was sold out.. He finished the job when he could have easily postponed. I recommend This plumber hands down."

"Cornelio set an appointment the next day when I messaged to fix two faucets in our bathroom. He made a free inspection, gave us a very reasonable quote, and offered to work on the fix the same day. He explained to us how the cartridge in the faucets are clean and unclogged, but the faucet body from the cheap brand is clogged and not serviceable. He recommended replacement faucets that should last longer and serviceable. We appreciated his honesty and would ask for his service again!"

"I’m very much satisfied with Francisco for the quick fix on a leaking pressure reducing valve under our garage ceiling.He has done it neatly good and best of all his price is very much competitive way better the other who responded to me from Angi’s. His over 28 years as plumber as he claimed , he’s proven me on this repair. He even outpaced himself probably that after he finished the job offered me a generous discount from our agreed orig. quote.Can’t get that all the time. He’s a pro,organized, neat on his job and best all I’ve felt his honesty. I would definitely do business with him In the future. And also would highly recommend Francisco to my neighbors and fiends should a need for one comes . Thank You Francisco.Mr FDL. Gonzalo"

"Plumbing 1 builders was the perfect team to come and help us with our needs. We got a full hardware replacement for our shower. They were quick and on time when it came to the quote process. They offered us the most competitive price in our area, while also being the most professional with the overall process. They didn’t try to upsell us on anything or spook us about our current set up, which did happen with other plumbers who came to give us a quote. They were quick and professional with the work as well. Everything exceeded my expectations in terms of execution. On top of that, they caught a weird error that was done by the builders and went out of their way to find a solution. We will most definitely reach out to them for any plumbing needs going forward!"

Affordable Plumbers FAQs, answered by experts

Older faucet fixtures may have some corrosion, leaving them stuck. Try a few techniques to loosen the fixtures.

  • Wrap the fixture with a towel and tap the base with a hammer.

  • Use a putty knife to gently remove any caulk that may be holding the handle or fixture in place.

  • Apply a few drops of penetrating oil around the base of the fixture or around the nuts.

  • Purchase a faucet pulling tool to pop the fixture loose.

You can start the process to set up utilities before closing on a new current property, but most companies won’t turn on electricity or gas until after the closing date. You’ll also need proof of ownership to get things going. The best way to do this is to contact the utility company as soon as possible and keep them up to date on the sale status. We recommend making contact one or two weeks before the closing date.

A plumbing emergency is a problem that threatens to severely damage your home or put your family at risk if not addressed immediately. If leaving the issue until regular business hours will cause more damage, it's an emergency. Examples include burst pipes, major leaks, significant drain clogs, a lack of hot water, a suspected gas leak, an out-of-control water heater, or a sewer line backup forcing gases into your home. Many home insurance policies will cover sudden and unexpected plumbing emergencies, provided they are not caused by homeowner negligence.

You should not attempt to snake your sewer yourself. Accessing and snaking your sewer requires heavy-duty equipment, and while renting is possible, misusing it can damage your sewer main and leave you with very expensive repair costs, not to mention potential environmental issues and severe water damage. Accessing your sewer also exposes you to hazardous sewer gasses, and failing to seal the sewer properly after work can be very dangerous. It’s always best to hire a professional sewer cleaner near you to handle this type of work.

No, you should avoid using liquid drain cleaners. These chemicals, often packed with sulfuric or hydrochloric acid, can wreak havoc on your pipes, causing erosion and potential leaks. They’re also dangerous to your health. If you’re dealing with a stubborn clog, manual removal or a professional plumber is your best bet. Chemical drain cleaners can often make things worse, especially if the clog stays put and the chemicals linger in your pipes.
