Fast Response Plumbing & Rooter

AWESOME business overall. I called them one afternoon when we noticed we had a leaky pipe, and notification from SFPUC that we had a leak (UGHS!). They said they were available to come out the next morning, and what a journey it's been. Out of the three different businesses we got quotes from, Fast Response Plumbing was the most reasonably priced, and at the end of it, the quickest turn around time, and provided great quality work. They had great expertise in the subject, I felt like they weren't ripping us off, and just did a great job. They also have a good texting service - they let you know when their staff is on their way for the morning, and you can text that number for questions, and they will call you their answer. They also repaved some concrete in the front of our house, and were very welcoming to having us put the handprints of our daughter & dog while it was still wet!

Shoutout to Esvin, who oversaw our project from beginning to end. He communicated everything as best he could (honestly, I don't think I will ever quite understand anything about pipes). Fantastic job. Highly recommended for any plumbing and pipe issues your old San Francisco home may have!

So I have used this company at least 4 times now, maybe 5. I have an older building and the tenants can be very rough.

Augered out a plugged drain and also diagnosed a failing gasket. Thankfully the technician had the gasket in his truck (even though I have a Toto which isn't all the common). All done in one hour.

Fair pricing and great communication. They are in my speed dial. Solid customer service.

This review is way past due!! We have been customers of Fast Response for many years for our 100-year-old single-family house in San Francisco.

Fast Response has been our go-to company for all our plumbing needs: pipe replacement (including water, gas, and sewer), trenching, random leaks, and clogged drain emergencies.

They are quick to respond to calls and easy to schedule. The actual work always matches the price estimate. One time, when they were unavailable to take on an urgent project, they even referred us to another company that they recommended.

Special shout out to the following technicians: Esvin, Yefrin, and Billy. You guys are beyond AMAZING!

True to the reviews, my experience with fast response plumbing was great. You can call them to schedule an appointment, and on the day of the appointment you'll receive a text when the plumber is on the way (they'll also text you the name of the plumber). CJ was the plumber dispatched to our home.

CJ was friendly, efficient and helpful! He was able to fix the clog with a 25 ft drill snake (after disassembling the pipes) within 15 minutes. He also did several tests to make sure everything worked as expected.

On the phone they quoted anywhere between $150-450 for unclogging the kitchen sink depending on the complexity, and our final price was $195 which is very reasonable for SF (just ask around with other plumbers and see the difference! Average seemed to be ~$250+).

NOTE: there seems to be another company going by the name of FAST RESPONSE PLUMBING & DRAIN PROS that have a google maps link and website that shows up when you google "fast plumbing". Make sure you're calling the right number (on this yelp page) and NOT the drain pros number 415-829-6011 which asks you to enter your zip code and then route you to one of many plumbers in the Bay area.

Just in the past couple of months I have been using Fast Reponse's services as different things broke down-when it rains, it pours literally in our case! So they not only installed a laundry sink, fixed a clog, found a leak, installed new handles of my main valve and had to make a bigger opening to access it, fixed shower handles, installed a faucet-so plenty to do. Although, I was facing multiple problem it was good that I had a trusted team I relied on and was quick to respond. They were reasonable in price and I feel they did not gouge me as some companies may do which is important to me. I liked Jarvin and Kevin from our first visit, so I kept asking for them and only wanted them!

I am sooo glad I found this company and went by its reviews on YELP!

My previous review still stands up after two years. Since that time I have managed to clog my drain again!

Still rooting for this place +'s:
+ CJ came out and immediately resolved my issue within minutes
+ He explained why I was having clogs even without hair as the culprit. Gave me a tip too to run a basin of hot soapy water to regularly keep things running smoothly! Thanks for the tip!
+ Very pleasant and cool when I asked for no shoes in the home
+ Easy to check out. Get an invoice and pay online!

In future I will still call this place because they are solid and the people they send do great work!

Joe and the guys at Fast Response are awesome. They check all the boxes: They respond quickly, are open all the time, have experienced and well-communicative staff, have great pricing, are good with the paperwork/administrative side of things, and most importantly, they are consistent!
You should listen to me, Im a property manager, so I facilitate upwards of 20+ plumbing jobs a month. These guys are great and you wont be disappointed when you need plumbing help.

I got my kitchen sink unclogged with Jarvin who gave me fair pricing. Highly recommend him as a plumber.

I had a gas pipe leak and PG&E turned off my gas for safety reasons.

I had a few quotes from different companies, but Fast Response was the only ones who made me feel like they had the right experience to get this fixed in an efficient manner.

Tim Benton and the whole team were wonderful to work with. Everything from digging up my driveway to replace the pipes, to getting the inspectors scheduled, and also fixing some other much more minor issues was a good experience. Communication was really good, and everyone on the team had pride in what they were were doing.

Highly recommend this company for your plumbing needs.

Sink disposal stopped grinding and Fast Response was able to come out quickly. With a turn of their allen wrench (mine clearly didn't fit properly!) the internal wheel was freed and problem fixed. Zero charge for me and in and out in less than 5 min.

Thank you for the excellent service, a heartwarming bay area experience!
