Lil Rooter

I highly recommend Lil Rooter! I can't say more words of praise for Rommel (the owner). He is not only effective at what he does, but also a very decent person who strives to do the best job that he can.

I highly recommend lil rooter because they provide high quality service and fair pricing. Owner and workers are very reliable.

Rommel seems cool enough but his prices are sky high. His guys spoke profanity in spanish, so they were rude. I had them fix a gas leak in my house but I still had a leak underground. The price they gave me for the underground was twice as much as I expected. Also he wasn't planning on using the best materials. Finally I found a very professional guy to do my underground for a fraction of Rommel's price. When PG&E came back to turn my gas on they said my stove was incorrectly connected and would leak. So I had to have someone fix their work. SMH I would never call them again. One star is too much.

Best plumber in the NorCal. The whole staff is family oriented super friendly & best of all very helpful. Even after they serviced my house we called for some advise & they were very helpful to assist even over the phone. Thank you for your service...

I highly recommend to all my family & friends. Two THUMBS UP!!!

This review is not on Lil Rooter's quality of work. Use Lil Rooter if you enjoy paying Cadillac prices for your plumbing jobs.

He does a quality plumbing job. But his rates is much higher than other plumbers I have used in the Hayward Fremont area. He'll give you a quote, telling you such national plumbing company charges this higher rate, etc. to convince you his rate charging reasonable rate.

But fact is there are so many reasonably charging plumbers and internet special offers going on the internet (about 20-40% cheaper than lil rooter's quote), MAKE SURE you ALWAYS get a second quote. ESPECIALLY if it's an emergency service call. (Yes, I had used Lil Rooter before for an emergency job.)

He charges 5% if you use credit card for payment. I have never had credit card charge extras with any other Plumbers. Perhaps this review will change his CC 5% charges?

I contacted Lil Rooter (Rommel) about installing a dedicated gas line for a new pool heater. He and his guys were very professional and responsive, gave me a good price and got the job done same day.
I was very impressed with the courtesy and attention to customer satisfaction they displayed and will absolutely reach out to Lil Rooter again for future needs.

Today I had a very happy plumber answer the phone, he said hello my name is Rommel and how can I help you. He was kind and very helpful
and came out the same day. Lil Plumber rescued me from my leaking (water spraying all over the bathroom disaster) Rommel fixed my shower head with a smile :) It's the little things that counts. Rommel made me feel more like a friend then a customer. I will call him back if I every need
him for a plumbing job.

One Happy Customer:)

I needed to replace an old toilet. Rommel gave me a great price because I mentioned I found him on Yelp. Instead of an easy switch it turns out the flange was made of cast iron and very rusted. Since I have a concrete slab (no crawl space) I was looking at a jack hammering job that would costs thousands. Rommel felt bad about not being able to finish the job so he decided not charge me even though he had already done a lot work. He even turned down my request to pay him for his gas! Ready for my happy ending? I guess Rommel had an epiphany in his truck because he came back with 2 large bolts murmuring about taking a chance on an idea he had. The bolts held and I have a new toilet! Look for the Lil Rooter van with a pic his adorable chubby-cheeked daughter on the side.

I very highly recommend Rommel, his company Lil Rooter, and his crew who have now done work for me at my residence twice. Rommel is extremely professional, knowledgeable, trustworthy and fair. He has done two major jobs at my home and I have been completely and happily satisfied with all the work done.

I found that being able to view the sewer line problems I had using his camera hookup was so helpful in seeing and understanding exactly what the problems were. He and his crew worked efficiently and had what I consider a major job done quickly. It took a few days, but they were always careful to be sure I had full use of my plumbing each night when they left.

In addition to tunneling under my house, they had to jackhammer through a concrete slab and also my porcelain tile at one portion of the job, and the area was re-tiled perfectly and left spotless. He and his crew were creative in finding a less-than-obvious way to fix a difficult access problem in a way that left no visible sign of their work. I can't say how much I appreciated that they went the extra mile in working out that solution, which saved me from losing cabinet space for them to route a pipeline.

Rommel's crew were extremely neat, pleasant and respectful of my home.

In addition to all of the above, Lil Rooter's prices are very competitive. I would definitely recommend Lil Rooter to my friends and family, and though I hope to have no more plumbing problems in the future, if I do need a plumber, Rommel and Lil Rooter will be the ones I immediately call!
