These guys have been so great every time I've called them for problems big and small from tankless water heater cleaning, to garbage disposal replacement, to consulting on problems and finding affordable solutions, the biggest of which was a shower pipe repair. Excellent quality of work and excellent customer service. Please give these kind, honest, hard working people more business. They have been on the news recently- they have been the target of two consecutive robberies, with over $100k of equipment stolen from them, nobody deserves that kind of harm, especially not these guys.

They've successfully fixed a leaky shower by accessing the pipes behind the wall rather than smashing into the tiles, replaced a garbage disposal, and descaled my water heater. I've gotten a different staff member each time but they have all been so great, very professional, fast, reliable, friendly. Thank you guys!

The issue resolved quickly and repaired another issue from the previous plumber. I will be using them in the near future for other repairs.

What a great experience with Jose Flores of Oakland Rooter & Plumbing! Our bathroom and kitchen sink were clogged and I sent a request on Yelp to find a plumber on Monday evening. Ygnacio responded first thing Tuesday morning and Jose was at our place around 11 am, with the 11am - 12:30pm window. Jose was kind, and very respectful, especially toward my elderly mother, and he was able to fix the drainage issue relatively quickly. In short, Jose saved the day!
I highly recommend them for any plumbing repairs. Thanks again!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Shannon H.Berkeley, CA558118Aug 9, 2024
Needed a verification for our insurance company regarding the type of plumbing we had. Ygnacio called within 10 minutes of my inquiry. We set up an inspection for the following week. Odi arrived on time and was incredibly cheerful. He checked all of our plumbing and wrote a verification statement for the insurance company. The nice part was hearing that our plumbing was in good condition throughout!
We will definitely call Oakland Rooter & Plumbing for our future plumbing needs!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Will L.Oakland, CA11884Jun 3, 2024
I got shaken down for more than the requested $99 drain unclogging special but was able to negotiate a fee lower than the one quoted to me when the service person first looked at the job.
From there, everything went well. The drain was unclogged, cleanup was quick and thorough, and I'll have them back the next time something comes up.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 2 - Andres A.San Leandro, CA027Aug 25, 2024
Kitchen drain decided to start leaking this morning, tried some basic fixes but didn't work. Sent a message to Oakland Rooter & Plumbing and they scheduled me same day and came out in a little over an hour. Fixed the leak in under an hour, looks good and seems to be working well, will update if anything changes but if not I highly recommend these guys.

I've hired these guys several times for my home, and have recommended them to others. Ygnacio and his team are very professional and fair in their pricing. They truly do it all, and if there is ever an issue with the work they did, they will come back and make it right. They're also usually able to send someone over quickly, instead of having to wait days and days. You can't go wrong with Oakland Rooter!

I found them thanks to Yelp's new AI Assistant and couldn't be happier. They were super quick to respond and offered immediate appointments. Ernesto was the plumber that came out to help and not only respected the property by always covering their boots but also gave me options at an affordable price. I can't recommend Ernesto enough!

we needed to cut and cap a pipe coming out of the kitchen floor from crawlspace. Jose Sanchez visited and gave us a reasonable price and did the job in the same day. the job was challenging because of lack of enough space in the crawlspace. he did a great job. great attitude.
