South Bay Rooter

L. H.

I have been using this company since I purchased my home back in 1996. It is a family run business, they have always been fair and honest, I highly recommend them!

I would recommend this company. Just noticed a leak under my water heater as I was leaving town, so I had to make arrangements for the issue to be handled while out of town. They were prompt in taking the call, answering my questions, giving me a reasonable quote, and they did the job with zero headaches. They were set to start at 9 AM and were there at 8:55. Reasonable fees and great service.

Marvelous, efficient, and reasonably priced! Dave Nelson and his son, Josh, are a delight to work with, just like helpful neighbors or family members. They take professional pride in their work and are very thorough. Five Stars and Kudos!!!

Just had Dave and Son over to instal two new toilets. They were very friendly and professional. I will be calling them to do more work for us.

My Mom has used this company for years with both her own home and her rentals. The price was always fair. I like them personally and appreciate the willingness to come as soon as they can after calling them. I called them recently to replace a water heater. It was done fine but everyone has told me I paid a really high price for this and the highest it should be is 1200.00 and that is the top. I paid 1600.00. I was sticker shocked, to say the least. They did take the old one away, buy the new one (cost unknown) and install it but after people told me this was a really high price, I did some research and it did indeed seem to be very high based on Angie's list prices and word of mouth. I'm really disappointed that I was charged so much when my Mom was a long time customer. I'm now concerned about what he is charging for the rental properties. I used to really like them but now, the jury is still out.

South Bay Rooter installed a faucet and drains at my new kitchen. He was very professional and quick. The price was reasonable and i am very happy with the service.

I had the unpleasant experience of having this man work next door to my house. He was yelling outside our window when I came out and politely said I had a sleeping baby and could he please not yell he was very rude and flippant. All he had to say is I'm so sorry but I can't be any quieter. When I proceeded to tell him that I was simply trying to ask politely he was even ruder. If you want a rude, disrespectful person to work for you then go ahead and hire this guy. Personally I'd find someone much better and with better reviews.

Best plumbers around and their family owned!! Great prices and sweet father-son duo. I would recommend to all my family and friends. They came to my house cause of my kitchen sink was clogged. They were in and out within 40 minutes and only charged me $95 for the whole thing. I've had other plumbers charge trip, labor, and parts, so that is a steal. They are get and I will continue to us their service.

I am extremely disappointed with this business. I just bought a home about 2 months ago and had an emergency plumbing issue, these people came recommended and after explaining what the issue was and letting him know that my bathrooms had previously been snaked he went ahead and sneak them anyway after him telling me that that probably wasn't going to fix that issue. He charged me $125 to not fix the issue and that same evening the problem and my bathrooms reoccurred. I called the sewer pros and by me telling them the same story regarding what was happening on my bathrooms he knew exactly what it was and he fixed the issue within 15 minutes. I called Chula Vista router to let him know that the problem had have been solved and then I felt like I paid him for nothing and he said that he would do nothing about it. Point being I feel robbed and do not recommend this company at all

South Bay Rooter are now our go-to plumbers. Explained everything and didn't mind us asking lots of questions. Found the leak in our downstairs bathroom and helped us take photos for the insurance company, even wrote out a detailed invoice for us. Dave and his son are great.
