Of the contractors I had come out to estimate Paul was the most thorough (he was the only one to look under the house to be sure of the level of the drain. He clearly explained what work would need to be done, what wouldn't be necessary, and how long it'd take. His crew were impressively fast...

Apparently the sink drain have been damaged for a few years. This caused dirty water to creep into the crawl space damaging the floor board under the kitchen and attracting critters. What I liked about Mr Kim is that he was punctual and made sure the job was finished on time and did not leave...

I called the company at 2:30pm. They said they'd have someone out between 3:00 and 5:00 that same day. (A for responsiveness.) They arrived at about 4:45. (A for punctuality.) Their representative was gruff. He did not cover his shoes when entering our house. Nor did he come prepared to...

Trying to do the old fashion way of unclogging a drain didn't work. Desperate to get the kitchen functioning again, I scheduled an appointment with Magic Plumbing, although they were busy, they did fit me in. They were responsive to my needs and like magic, the drain was cleared. Great service.
- Alan G.
Paul went out of his way to respond to frustrations we had with our misunderstanding regarding work that his company was not able to perform on a different problem. He helped us think through what a solution might be for the problem and was willing to try to fix it even though he was clear...
- Nicholas T.
Mick and his crew were fantastic. From the design process, through the muddy stages and the final execution of the project. When we purchased our house in Walnut Creek three years ago, the 1/2 acre back yard was mostly an oleander forrest and the drainage system consisted of a sketchy series...

FAQs for french drain service projects in Walnut Creek, CA
Landscapers typically charge $25 to $50 per person per hour, which equals around $50 to $100 per hour for a two-person crew. These rates can vary depending on your location, the size of staff needed for the job, and overall job type. For example, a larger crew will be needed for structural additions and hardscaping versus planting flowers.
When it comes to landscapers, licensing laws vary. Landscaping architects are required to be licensed in all 50 states, whereas traditional landscaping contractors are not typically required to hold a certification. You’ll likely be working with a landscaping contractor for most residential projects. If you are redesigning your whole yard or adding in hardscape features, you will work with a landscaping architect at some point during the project. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local landscaper guidelines.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
The cost to install a drain pipe is $600 on average, but the total can range between $150 and $2,000. Some cost factors that influence your project price include the type of drain, the area’s accessibility, the proximity of existing drain lines, and whether you’re installing a new drain or replacing an old one. Replacing the p-trap or s-trap under a single fixture will usually cost around $150, while replacing a main drain pipe can cost well over $2,000.
Yes, most states require plumbers to be licensed, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed plumber could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.

We highly recommend leaving the work of replacing drain pipes to a professional plumber. Drain pipes are a key part of your plumbing system, and making mistakes during the installation or even using the wrong size pipes for your specific fixture can lead to an elevated risk of leaks and clogs. Additionally, drain pipes prevent harmful sewer gas from entering your home, so hiring a professional plumber is essential to keeping the risk of leaks and clogs low and avoid reducing your indoor air quality.
