"I have been a builder for 38 years and used many plumbers. Randy’s plumbing service was top-notch. They were timely per our schedule. They passed inspections immediately. The work was done professionally and according to building codes. He got everything done in just a few days for the underground plumbing for prior to slab work and all the yard lines. Thank you Randy, I really appreciate you and your workers! I have hired Randy’s plumbing service to do underground plumbing, top out and finish plumbing for a new custom home, so the complete plumbing job."

"EXCELLENT! Everyone, everyone--the office staff, the estimator, the team of two plumbers, the electrician--were friendly, professional, courteous, on time, and took the time to thoroughly explain or answer all my questions. They called when they said they would. They did what they said they would. They cleaned the work area when they finished. They are now THE ONLY plumbing, heating and cooling firm I will ever use."

"Greg did a wonderful job with replacing our water heater and now works well and looks good. He was able to come in the next day after getting a quote from him. It did take him a whole day just because he didn’t have his helper. Otherwise, good service!"

"Mike Jr was very willing to work with me to help keep the cost down. That was greatly appreciated as my income is Social Security and I couldn't afford the cost the big Box store install plumber quoted me for this job. Mike Sr and his helper did an excellent job of installing the new Water Heater and at a reasonable price. I would definitely hire them again if future plumbing work is needed."

"Michael was at my home within 40 minutes. He was quick, efficient and proficient in his job. He took care of my problem within 20 minutes and was very respectful to not leave a mess. I called other plumbers that wanted to charge me 4 to 5 times more than what I was charged! I highly recommend this company and will be using them again should there be need."

"I've worked with the team at Ortega for more than 5 years for projects at both my home and a rental property. Work has included installation of new heating/cooling package unit, water heater installation/replacement (2), evaporative cooler installation, and miscellaneous heating and plumbing repairs. They are always quick to respond and get the job done as promised and per their estimate. Highly recommend."

Plumbing Handymen questions, answered by experts

You can try several easy methods to unclog a drain, one of the easiest and most effective of which is to use a mixture of baking soda and vinegar. This will help dislodge and dissolve the clog to move it down the drain pipes. Pour 1/2 cup baking soda into the drain, followed by 1/2 cup of white vinegar. Dump several cups of boiling water (or hot water if you have PVC pipes) into the drain and let sit for up to one hour. Run hot water to clear the drain.

Yes, you can water plants with water softened with potassium chloride. Potassium is a vital nutrient for plants, so using this type of water is harmless and can even be enriching. It is often a better option than water softened with sodium chloride, as too much sodium can build up in the soil and make it difficult for plants to absorb the water they need. If you notice that your plants are not tolerating the treated water, try letting it sit in a watering can for one to five days to allow the chlorine to diminish.

Snaking a toilet is similar to clearing sinks and bathtubs, but there are unique circumstances where you’d have to drain, disassemble, and remove the toilet to fix the clog. For stubborn clogs in the toilet trap, a toilet auger—designed with a shorter cable and a protective plastic encasing—can navigate the tight bends and clear the clog without risking damage to the porcelain. 

Basement toilets don’t always need a pump. However, it is the most common setup because plumbing systems use gravity to move waste away from the home. Basement toilets often sit below the home’s main sewage system, and installing a sewage ejector pump pushes the wastewater and sewage up to the main sewer line. Alternatively, you can use an upflush or macerator toilet that breaks down the waste and pushes it straight to the main sewer line rather than via a sewer line from the bathroom.

Whether an earthquake gas shut-off valve is required depends on your location and circumstances. Certain cities, states, and even insurance providers mandate them, especially in areas with high seismic activity. In California, for example, while laws vary by county, most jurisdictions require a valve to be installed in newly constructed homes or when a home is sold or renovated. The Los Angeles Municipal Code specifically requires a licensed contractor for installation. Even if not required by law, installing a seismic shut-off valve is a wise safety measure. These devices automatically cut off the flow of gas during an earthquake, which can prevent gas leaks, fires, and explosions. It is recommended to check with your local building department for specific laws regarding installation, permitting, and inspections, and to ensure the valve you install is on your city's list of approved models.
