"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"

"Very honest, trustworthy and inexpensive plumbing company. I had three total estimates for the work and the other two companies just seem to want to charge as much as possible and do more work then was needed. I highly recommend Western Rooter and ask for Ryan, he’s the best!"

"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."

"It is so nice when you can find a plumbing company that you can trust. We had a clogged drain and called Leon Plumbing after I had gotten their number a while ago. I am glad I had kept the number. The plumber came on time, very professional and friendly. Made sure that he covered every part where he was working so it would not get wet or dirty. He explained everything he was doing and even gave advice on what we can do so we dont need to call a plumber often. Their estimate was fair and the final cost was within the estimate."

Affordable Plumbers FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, drain stoppers do come out. In some cases, you can twist them counterclockwise to remove them. You can lift some drain stoppers halfway to the raised position and unscrew them. For others, you will need to lift the drain stopper to the raised position and unscrew the stopper from the stem underneath the top of the stopper.

The first step to clearing the air in a line is to locate the cause. This is usually a blockage in either the drain or the venting system. Once you clear the issue, flush the system by actually flushing the toilets repeatedly. This should allow the trapped air to escape, thus clearing the lines. Don’t be surprised if there is increased bubbling as the air makes its way through the system. 

Building codes don’t allow homeowners or businesses to run sewer pipes and water lines in the same trench for safety and environmental purposes. If the sewer line started leaking, it would risk contaminating the water supply to your house, which threatens the health of you and your family. These lines need to be in separate trenches and may need to be separated both horizontally by around 5 to 10 or more feet and vertically by 12 to 18 or more inches.

Yes, you can fix pipe threads. In fact, the process is the same as cutting new ones. You’ll need to use a pipe threader tool with the proper size die head for the pipe. Turning the threader over the damaged threads will clean up any damaged or worn-out threads in the pipe. If the pipe threads are too damaged, this process may not work, and you’ll need to replace the pipe.

In an emergency plumbing situation, taking the time to vet a plumber properly might not be feasible. Instead, it’s helpful to ask the following questions to gauge the experience and expertise of the plumber you’re considering quickly:

  • How many years of experience do you have?

  • Are you licensed and insured?

  • How quickly are you able to get to my property?

You can quickly check some online reviews and the Better Business Bureau (BBB) page for the plumber to get a sense of the quality of service they provide.
