RSB Plumbing

Richard and his brother have helped us for several years now and they have always provided quality work at reasonable and fair prices and have been exceptionally responsive. We are in Palos Verdes and he always makes the time if we need him. Richard knows exactly what needs to be done and always seems to find the right solution for the problem. He will be our plumber for years to come.

This plumber cannot be trusted. He replaced a water heater for us 4 years ago, and we have been having ongoing issues with the water heater since he replaced it. I finally hired another plumber who told me that RSB had charged me $400 for a part to this new water heater that should have been covered at no cost under warranty...and he also charged me $300 labor....so $700 later, I now need to replace this 4 year old water heater with my new plumber. Several of my neighbors have had similar experiences with RSB.

Today I saw an RSB Plumbing van in redondo beach on prospect and beryl around 1:30pm. The man in this van drove extremely fast and erratic around a driving school car, just to go around another car that was turning. which was very unprofessional ! And I'm sure very scary for the teen driving the school car ! And then he proceeded to still drive very fast and not use turn signals and was blowing through stop signs and red lights. You guys have a giant phone number and logo on your van, you might wanna drive more safely.. This was also very close to an elementary school when this took place.

""A friend in need is a friend indeed"". That is what I've always felt with Richard Beck plumbing company. You know how it is when you need a plumber, you NEED a plumber! Richard has always been responsive, as possible, even though he's busy - Cause he's good and fair!! Another key element I appreciate is his expertise with diagnosis and EXPLANATION! I wanna know what's going on and what it's going to take to fix it. That may be easy when a drain is clogged but recently I had a hot water leak under the stone kitchen floor! I had fretful thoughts of jack hammering up the kitchen stone and slab! After determining the location we agreed to reroute the pipes through the walls and his guys got right on it and did a GREAT JOB! Same day done. I called his recommendation for the drywall repair, who was there 2 days later and also did the paint. IMPOSSIBLE to tell where it all happened!!! Yes I'm stoked, again! YAY RSB Thanks.

Unfortunately I was referred to this Plumbing company by a good friend and tenant to help locate and repair a gas main leak which I'll say that his team did in fact fix but the finished job was a hack job!!!

However if you like working with a company that bids extremely high saying he'll give you a deal if it's any easy fix and says they'll be there at 7:00 AM and shows up at 10:00...then drops off his team and says he'll meet at 2:00 and shows up at 5:00 PM which I feel is unacceptable Richard is your man.

The owner of the company is extremely combative and tries to intimidate you with his 30 year career of all happy clients which I now see on YELP isn't quite true.... he never listened and his only focus was to come and get his $$$.

The repair ends up being a 3' section of green pipe that's right off the gas vault which required one thread and in all actuality took less than 3 total hours to repair with less than a 2' x 2' Concrete removal and threading one pipe for $2500 cash which I feel is rather high

Also note that while Richard demanded the cash he still has not to date provided a receipt or guarantee for his services.

Not a good experience for a homeowner and I will never use RSB Plumbing again!

My Very good friend in Rolling Hills Estates Called This plumber For No hot Water Service call. He came out and Replaced the Thermal Couple to the hot water Heater .Well let me tell you ,it only worked for ONE DAY He Charge Her $150 So he came out again to light the Pilot. Bye the way Thermal Couple's sell at Home Depot for $12.48 . So I went to see what work he did .He did NOT Install Four Torx 20 Screws that hold the burner in place and broke a grommet and did not install it correctly with a big gap Potentially leaking Carbon Monoxide so I told him about it he Got Mad did not fix anything and called me a illegal. So he insulted me, I had to order new parts from General Electric rework every he touched DO HIRE THIS RAT He is very Sloppy And RACIST and Expensive ! BEWARE!

Amazing! I started using him because he knew my landlord and trusted him. After getting estimates and eyeing the job, he's fair and knows what needs to be done in literally just a few seconds.

Very trustworthy, has been able to come by same day and the next day with little notice, and prices are fair.

Hands down, the WORST plumbing company I've ever hired. Richard had to keep coming back to fix (or attempt to fix) both bathroom and kitchen issues. His brother installed faucet handles incorrectly and Richard attempted to fix it, but it still wasn't right. After spending too much wasted $$$$, I hired a plumber who corrected all of these problems at a great price in a fraction of the time it took RSB. Save yourselves the headache and call a reliable plumber.

If they are as reckless plumbing as they are driving, I'll look elsewhere for my plumbing needs. One of their vans buzzed a group of us cyclists on a quiet residential street in Palos Verdes. Missed us by a foot (the law is 3 feet separation) doing at least 30 mph (speed limit is 25).
When I called the office and spoke with the manager, he said he was aware of the 3 foot law. His first question was ""were you to the right of the white bike lane line?"" I said here is no bike lane. He then stated that we must be on the other side of the line because ""he has had this issue before and the Palos Verdes Police say we need to be inside the white marked bike lane."" Nothing could be further from the truth. There are no bike lanes in PVE and his intent on shifting the blame to us law abiding cyclist was filled with defiance. Not one word of an apology or ""I'll speak with my driver so it will never happen again.""

What will never, ever happen is me using RSB Plumbing for any plumbing needs. There are plenty others out there that just plain care about the residents of the community.

Richard is always so pleasant to work with and super helpful.
No request is too minimal or too large, he shows up right away, gets the job done promptly, leaves no trail behind him. Most of all, his pricing is fair.
