"I hired Make it Drain to fix my leaking toilet because my regular plumber was unavailable. I spoke with the main office and was told that a repairman would be at my house within an hour. After an hour and with no repairman in sight or call to explain his absence, I called the office back. I was told that the repairman had to get a part and that's why it was taking so long. The repairman finally showed up two hours after my initial call and promptly left again to get another part -- for which he added an additional $50 to the original quote. The work was completed and they did come back the following day when the toilet still wasn't fixed. But they could not detect any problem and left. The best thing about this experience is that it has renewed my already-considerable confidence in my regular plumber. Should I have an urgent matter in the future, I will wait until he is available. He is more reliable than Make it Drain (he comes when he says he will) and he is much more reasonably priced."

"I can’t recommend him enough. He was professional, honest, and showed up when he said he would, which is hard to find these days. He took the time to explain everything, gave me a fair price, and made sure the job was done right the first time. You can tell he genuinely cares about his work and his customers. If you’re looking for a reliable plumber who does quality work and doesn’t try to upsell you on things you don’t need, he’s your guy. I’ll definitely be calling him again for any future plumbing needs. My landlord loved my recommendation and has him working on her other properties. 👍"

"Art was an amazing find! In the middle of a kitchen renovation, I came across his information in a pinch and I’m so glad that I did! He was extremely knowledgeable, honest, reliable, accommodating, fair pricing and down right a pleasure to work with. I have saved his information and he will be my go to for any future planning needs. Highly recommend!!"

"They called us quickly and got a plumber out within a few days. Super thorough - tested all pipes and water sources to diagnose the problem. They were able to perform maintenance on most bathrooms the same day and improve the water temperature in our showers. Gave helpful, non-biased advice on potential further plumbing improvements. We will likely call this company again for any and all future plumbing needs."

Affordable Plumbers questions, answered by experts

Start your plumbing project by securing all required city permits for tasks like water heater replacements or sewer lateral work. Verify your hired professional carries proper liability insurance. Since many Montebello homes date back to the mid-century, have a contractor inspect for old galvanized pipes or clay sewer lines first. You must also check whether your property sits in a liquefaction zone, as this dictates specific underground trenching requirements.

Helpful?

Unexplained increases in your water bill strongly point to a hidden plumbing leak rather than a structural issue. In Montebello, foundation cracks stem from expansive clay soils, but a professional slab leak test will rule out pipe damage. If you notice ceiling stains, monitor them during heavy rain to rule out roof failure. For gas odors near water heaters, contact your local gas utility immediately for emergency assistance.

Helpful?

A clear indicator of proper plumbing is having an approved city permit and a final inspection sign-off. Work must also meet CA state codes, including proper seismic bracing for water heaters to handle earthquakes. Check your water quality after the project finishes. Your water pressure should remain strong and consistent, and the water must run perfectly clear without any discoloration or sediment left behind in the pipes.

Helpful?

Sewer lateral connections require exact precision, as incorrect plumbing installations force re-excavation and failed inspections. Underground pipe work is highly sensitive due to expansive soils in Montebello, demanding flexible connections and proper bedding to prevent slab leaks. Additionally, California law mandates strict seismic strapping and energy efficiency standards for water heaters. Upgrading older homes requires full repiping with lead-free materials to prevent rapid corrosion and serious health hazards.

Helpful?

Prepare for plumbing emergencies by locating your main water shutoff valve near the street. For minor fixture leaks, close the individual shutoff valves under sinks or behind toilets to stop water loss immediately. In Montebello, dry climate conditions cause empty P-traps, so run water down unused drains to eliminate sewer odors. Never attempt to adjust your pressure regulator valve or cap supply lines yourself without a licensed professional.
