Recommended Customer Reviews

Not a dependable or professional plumbing company. This company was referred to me by my home warranty company. I was initially contacted by Roman & he said he could be out to my home the following day between 12-4pm. He sent a text that day & said he couldn't come,because he was on another job. Roman then said the following day his schedule was open between 12-2pm. He never showed up & never contacted me via email,text or phone. I sent two text message & left a voicemail, still no response. Never did hear from him again.

I bought a fixer-upper in Wofford Heights with several plumbing issues. I tried a couple of locals to get some of it repaired, but unfortunately, one was a mansplainer and one was good but in order to schedule him I had to go through an absent minded lady who made it really hard to get the help. I decided I was going have to reach out to a Bakersfield plumber to get the many issues repaired. I came across Roman Rooter of Bakersfield, who have a plumber right here in town. Richard has installed a toilet, and recommended new piping behind the shower stall that resist freezing for a reasonable price. He was also kind enough to get my water turned on after I had to be away several months and check for any new leaks before I got back. He's good at letting you know if he's going to have to be late also, so one doesn't wonder what's going on. Give him a try if you live in the Kern Valley.

Came out the same morning at the exact time agreed upon. Very helpful, explained everything, and fixed the shower problem in a short period of time. I have already gave their contact info to a couple friends and family members. This is my go to place for sure now. Would definitely recommend
