Aquilina Plumbing and Rooter
Company Overview
Aquilina Plumbing and Rooter, boasting over three decades of expertise, is your dependable partner for every plumbing task. We specialize in plumbing solutions for homes and businesses alike. Our team embodies the skill and trustworthiness you seek in plumbing services.
In 1998, Frank Aquilina established Rite Job Professional Plumbing in Tucson, Arizona, which later became Aquilina Plumbing and Rooter. Following over a decade of service in Tucson, the economic downturn led Frank to move his family and business back to Southern California, his original home.
With his C-36 plumbing contracting license in hand, he rapidly built the business by collaborating with home warranty providers. He soon became known for completing plumbing jobs that others shied away from. As referrals from satisfied customers grew, we have continued to proudly serve our community.
In 1990, Frank Aquilina started his plumbing journey at Louis Luskin and Son's Plumbing in Los Angeles, where he learned the trade. During his apprenticeship, he mastered trench digging for sewers and waterlines, home repiping, and the installation of sewers and gas lines. After one year, he had the opportunity to apprentice with Jeff Harris, concentrating on service and repair plumbing. Soon after, he was given the chance to operate his own service truck.
Several years later, Frank moved to Tucson and spent three years with Cumming's Plumbing. He began preparing for his journeyman's card and pursued his K-38 plumbing license. After successfully passing his exams, he launched Rite Job Professional Plumbing in 1998.
Frank made his way back to the South Bay in 2012, starting Aquilina Plumbing and Rooter. Frank is happily married to Tonya Aquilina, and together they have two daughters, Mariah and Gianna.

Recommended Customer Reviews

I had the pleasure to be serviced by Aquilina Plumbing, recently. After talking on the phone with them, they were able to come out the very next day, which was extremely helpful, given we we did not have warm water. The man named Frank that came to service, was very helpful, he explained everything in detail, AND they had fair pricing. All around very happy with this service, thank you!!

Super quick installation of hot water heater in a tight spot! Will definitely call him again in the future if we have plumbing issues.

I had a leaky bathroom faucet, a garbage disposal that wasn't working, and a kitchen sink that wasn't draining well. Frank did such a great job the last time he was here a couple of years ago that I called him again. I'm glad I did. He is a master craftsman and took the time to do everything right. I'm very happy with the service I received.

Excellent, prompt service. Frank identified & fixed tub spout problem not fixed properly by another plumber. Price was half the cost charged by ARS Plumbing. Great job.

Called and verified appt 3xstill a no show, no call, texted that he was sorry to stand us up? Unprofessional!

These guys are great, I have hired them multiple times in Hermosa Beach and then again for my mom's place in Mar Vista. Frank is extremely trustworthy and I can't recommend them enough. They're talented and have the equipment needed to do the hard stuff.

Called Aquilina for what we thought was an internal leak, and Frank was able to schedule an appointment for us on the same day. Frank quickly diagnosed the problem right away and was honest with us that we didn't have the issue we thought. Would definitely use Frank again and would recommend him if you're looking for a knowledgeable and honest plumber!

Very happy.
Frank ordered the part that i needed to fix my hot water heater, which saved me thousands of dollars. Everything seems to be in good working order now.
I thought that the quality of service was great and Frank's rates are competitive with other's in the market.
I won't hesitate to contact Aquilina Plumbing again to fix my plumbing issues.

If you are looking for a good plumber, call Frank. I have had him at least 8 years . His prices are fair and he is reliable. Words I thought I would never say is his plumbing work is beautiful. Not only that but my partner has been sick for 3 years, Frank is so compassionate that he and his wife brought home made dinner to us. It was out of this world. How great was that! Do yourself a favor, call Frank, you will be happy you did.

Frank was great! I find it strange that there were a handful of plumbing companies that I would call and would not return my call for a quote. We were looking for someone to install a water filtration device under our kitchen sink. Aqualina was not only responsive but also provided us with one of the lowest rates we found. They estimated it would take about 2-3 hours in which it took just under 2 hours and so he gave us the lower rate. Everything was straight forward and he gave us some good pointers on how to maintain our filtration system. Frank was very easy going and very knowledgeable. Thank you!
