"Friendly Yet Professional While other plumbers took less than a minute to evaluate the issue, Juan took his time and explained what was required to fix the problem. He even recommended that I call DWP to replace the street shut-off valve. The work was done in a timely manner by Giovanni. They did a great job at a reasonable price. True Blue will be my first call the next time I need a plumber."

"We have worked with many plumbers in Los Angeles, and our experience with GMC Plumbing was by far the best. They are responsive, honest and trustworthy. They did a great job and helped us avoid paying the thousands of dollars other plumbers told us would be needed to fix the problem. We highly recommend them"

"A first time apartment owner and landlord, I needed major plumbing services within the first 6 months of ownership. The first time was a series of gas leaks which were quickly repaired by Western Rooter. The second time was the significant work of adding 2 gas meters and the requisite task of re-routing/adding gas piping. I simply cannot recommend Daniel Westereng and Western Rooter enough. Although the owner John came out to assist in the final bid, Daniel and I worked consistently with SoCal Gas to coordinate the improvements. Daniel was quick to return texts, calls, e-mails and worked diligently with all the parties to get the job done. If you need a plumber, save time and call Western Rooter. Tell them to send Daniel Westereng and he will do a fantastic job!"

"I recently had a gas leak scare and called L.A. Plumbing pros. He was fantastic! The plumber who came out his name was Victor he was professional, communicative, and very efficient. He was able to quickly locate the source of the gas leak and explained everything clearly throughout the process. I felt confident in his expertise and appreciated his willingness to answer all my questions. The repair itself was done promptly and the work area was left clean afterwards. I highly recommend L.A. Plumbing pros for any plumbing needs, especially if you suspect a gas leak. Their fast response, clear communication, and quality service were all top-notch!"

"George was great. He helped us with installing a new faucet that also required some pipe repair work. He’s very skilled and quickly found the best solution. All the work was done perfectly, and he had other ideas that enhanced everything. Highly recommend. I’ll be working with him on other projects for our house."

"I have a Rinnai tankless water hater that was not supplying us with hot water, and 2 different plumbers had tried to improve it already. Sev came out and told me Leon Plumbing is backed by the Rinnai company. What a relief! He explained to me the issue and why the things the previous plumbers did made no difference. He was very clear and informative the whole time and even told me my Rinnai needs servicing annually and would reach out when that time comes so I don't forget. Our hot water is running again and I will gladly use Sev at Leon Plumbing again. Professional, friendly, and communicative."

Affordable Plumbers FAQs, answered by experts

You can use PEX pipe underground, and it will hold up well in underground insulations. Keep in mind that PEX tubing is not rated for outdoor use and that insulation is necessary in regions that experience cold winters. When using it underground, you should also bury PEX piping at least 12 inches below the frost line.

Pedestal sinks are bolted or screwed into the floor and the wall to prevent it from moving out of place. You may have to change or add to the bathroom flooring when installing a pedestal sink if the flooring was laid around the previous sink, not under it.

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.

No, shower valves and cartridges are not universal. They must match and typically come from the same manufacturer. Mixing and matching different brands is unlikely to work and can cause issues like leaks or malfunctioning faucets. To find the correct replacement, check the old valve or cartridge for a brand name, model number, or serial number. If you cannot find this information, contact the manufacturer or check their website to determine which parts are compatible.

Sometimes. While many traditional homes use copper, galvanized steel, PVC, acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), and PEX, mobile homes will typically use PVC, CPVC, or PEX. These materials are more flexible, easier to work with, and handle colder temperatures.
