SMB Rooter

We called Steve after encountering a main line backup. We had tried to snake the drain ourselves and were unsuccessful. Steve arrived within the time limit that he had set, and he was able to give us a reasonable estimate. Once he returned with the equipment he needed, the process took all of about 20 mins. We paid him via check and plan to call him if we have any problems in the future.

I called SMB because Stephans plumbing left me hanging, again. Glad I called. They were fast on time and my tenants enjoyed the service. Prices were reasonable too. Will call them back for more work.

We've had a clogged sink forever. It finally was time to get it done after my husband tried snaking all weekend. I called Monday morning, someone came at a convenient time for me, fixed the problem in 15 minutes. Polite (Walter), quick, clean, reasonable. I found them through Yelp, so thought I would show my appreciation that way too.

This is the first Yelp review I am writing in my life, I hope that shows how impressed I am with Steve's work. Just as a background, I am an engineer, very handy, and a general contractor. So, I think I can say that I know a good tradesman when I see one. SMB was the 3rd company I called regarding the recent clogged up kitchen sink of our lovely old home in San Pedro. The other two, let me just say that I knew in minutes I was going to be over-charged by an inexperienced crew, and that the final cost was open ended.

Steve scheduled the job quick, showed up on time, immediately demonstrated his knowledge & experience by correct assessment of the issue. His price was very reasonable, his work exceeded my expectation. His customer service was superb! He even called me back later to recommend couple other trades people which I had asked about.

My wife is happy, our kitchen is happening again. Life is good! Thanks Steve!

I gave him a call in the morning and he was here by noon. Super fast and very reasonably priced!

Within 20 min of calling Steve came by on a Saturday evening of a holiday weekend and took care of a clogged sewer line. He double checked the line to make sure everything was clear and answered all my questions. Great guy, great service and very reasonable rate. Thanks for saving the day Steve.

Steve is on time, professional, and courteous. He knows what he is doing and gets the job done right. He cares about what happens after he is done because he wants to make sure the customer is satisfied. Plus. his prices are reasonable. Highly recommended.

I was drinking my coffee in the kitchen this morning and heard what sounded like water running through the pipes very faintly. I verified that no water was running anywhere inside, and then crawled under the house to find a pipe with a pinhole leak spraying water underneath the kitchen. I shut off the main supply and then started looking for plumbers to call. My wife handed me a number for someone who had cleared a toilet years earlier. He was not available immediately and could not promise when he might make it.
I looked up Steve and read some of his reviews and called him. He answered and told me he was headed to another job but promised to call me shortly and let me know when he could make it. I also put calls in to a couple other plumbers but everyone was busy or I left messages and there were no promises when they would be available.
To make a long story short, Steve was here within about an hour of us talking with two workers. Steve crawled under the house to verify the problem, took some pictures and discussed the fix with me, provided an estimated cost, then directed his guys to perform the repair needed before he headed back to his other job. He promised to come back within a couple hours to check on the work, and his guys got to work. They replaced the bad section of pipe and removed an old galvanized section that was rubbing and possibly damaging the copper pipe. The job was completed in less than 2 hours and the invoice I received was less than I expected. I did get a call back from one of the other plumbers about 2 hours after the guys had left, and was happy to wave them off since the issue was already resolved.
My wife was very happy with how quickly the issue was resolved. Steve is a local and knows a number of my neighbors from doing work in the area. I will definitely use these guys again and will recommend them to anyone.

Great service, clean, and very reasonably priced. More importantly Steve is local in Pedro, not a marketing beast servicing our area as yelp attempts to dish up.

Having just bought a house, it took a few months to get to know each other. About three weeks ago, a steady leak had developed under our kitchen sink that ended up being caused by the faucet handle itself (Moen's a joke!). Steve and another associate came to swap out the broken faucet for a new unit and the leak's been taken care of ever since. Fair, honest, and very professional. Thanks again!
