Dave's Specialized Rooter & Plumbing Services

I called the owner of this company and his wise professional Knowledge. He isa good professional plumber to call for any questions about plumbing and drain cleaning

I highly recommend this plumbing service as I have known the owner for nearly 10 years and he has excellent service professionals working for him. I needed help with a plugged shower and was able to get service on the same day I requested.
Jose Garcia came and was punctual, very professional and handled my issue with speed and expertise. He was very helpful and personable. This is a great plumbing business with kind and expert service and with reasonable rates. Highly recommend.

Dave responds quickly and assesses the situation. He always provides a good solution to solve the problem, either permanently or at least temporarily with an option for a longer term solution.
Reliable.

I live out of state but had a hot water heater issue. I called Dave's he schedule and performed the repair the next morning. Dave's team is very professional & work is top quality. Highly recommend Dave's for your plumbing needs . I was able to complete the entire scheduling & payments remotely.
Thanks Dave's you're the GOAT of the plumbing business. Terry Smith

I filled out the general Yelp project details to request quotes from multiple plumbers. I stated my issue and asked for a quote to assess the issue, and for the repair. I didn't say anything about my expectations of cost. The arrogant response from Dave was off putting and unnecessary.

I can only assume he's been turned down for projects for high pricing. Fine, maybe he doesn't want to waste his time on estimates that don't get picked up. But his assumption of my intent and his aggressive response to a request for a quote was so rude!

I didn't bother responding to his comment and went with someone else (and certainly not at a "handyman price" whatever that is).

Dave came on time and very quickly figured out how to fix the two bathroom sinks in our house which weren't draining properly. He was friendly and highly professional and completely solved the problems in under an hour. After dealing with the first sink he showed what he found blocking the pipe which turned out to be a toothbrush (!) that must have been in there for nearly three decades. I know it wasn't one of mine and I can only imagine it was one of my sister's from when she was living in the house when I had gone away to college. How it got in there remains an absolute mystery, but Dave came in and found the problem and solved it, and then went on to fix the other sink. Dave is a true pro and I'd recommend his services to everyone. A+ plumber!

Dave had a guy here first thing in the morning to fix my plumbing issues. Very professional and reasonable. I highly recommend them

I've added Dave's to my speed dial.

Our bathrooms would periodically have a bad odor over the years, and it recently became unbearable. I had called other plumbers before, and none could figure it out.

Raymond G. and Dave both came out to troubleshoot. Unfortunately, the odor wasn't present that day, but Raymond, a Toto-trained specialist, spent time walking through the possibilities. I really liked that he took time to think through the possible causes. He even noticed something wrong with the *sound* of the flush. A toilet whisperer. :)

I had them do a few other repairs instead like a leaky toilet, clogged tub, and kitchen faucet repair. They were reasonably priced.

The next day, the odor came back and the leaky toilet had an additional, smaller leak that we missed the day before. Raymond and Dave both returned, at no charge, to fix the additional leak. After verifying the odor, they checked the vents outdoors and found that those had been capped, trapping all the sewer gases! (A pest control company may have capped them to prevent rats from entering.) They uncapped and covered the vents properly, then tested the flushes. While the odor didn't go away immediately, they eventually disappeared that day. They checked all the roof vents and found another vent related to the dryer was capped. They even fixed that, and now the laundry room is no longer humid and hot!

What I like so much about both Dave and Raymond is that they truly care about the customer. They took the time to figure things out. They returned the second day at no charge to complete the fixes to the leaky toilet and vent problems. Dave even called back today to make sure everything is working properly.

They also didn't come with an attitude of "let me see how much I can rip off these rich Palo Alto residents." (I've had some bad experiences with plumbers doing that to me.) They are honest and trustworthy. You get the sense they take pride in making people happy while earning an honest day's wages.

So call Dave. You'll be happy.

It was a pleasure working with Raymond to clear a deep clog in my patio/kitchen plumbing.

Ray is VERY friendly and goes out of his way to explain what he needs to do to fix the problem. He suggests ways to prevent problems and save money.

Roland did a great job explaining the situation and doing the work. It was great that he was able to come to our house so quickly.
