Have questions? Reach out to us! I was born in Lima, Peru. The lack of opportunities and financial strain, like for many others, brought me to California on December 27, 1999.
With the support of my family here, I had the chance to learn English at UC Davis Extension Center. After that, I pursued web design.
I entered the plumbing sector in 2001. I became part of the Sacramento Hispanic Chamber of Commerce in 2007. A year later, I took on the role of SACHCC Ambassador. It provided me the opportunity to network with other entrepreneurs and contribute to my community.
I was a mentor for at-risk kids at Hiram Johnson High School and participated in various community meetings as a SACHCC representative. I discovered that being a successful business owner requires effective communication.
My interests include watching films, indulging in BBQ, and following soccer matches. My hobbies include water and energy efficiency, salsa dancing, and dreaming of building a resort in Peru to host all my friends from California!

Recommended Customer Reviews
Maverick A.Despite the positive reviews on here, my experience was contrary.
The work done was rushed, sloppy, and when it was done, Anthony left all the trash, extra parts, crud, water, dirt, etc all over the place. Never offered to clean it up. Just left. My house was clean before the job.
Any good contractor will always clean up after themselves and leave the place the same if not better than when they arrived.
Price was too good to be true.
We called today with an exterior leak when our regular plumber was booked. Believe the reviews! Antonio is reasonable, prompt, and super helpful. This will be our first call from now on when we need a plumber. I highly recommend the Pocket Plunger!
Jana Leigh T.$49 bucks out the door to snake 50 feet worth of one hell of a clogged drain! I'm still blissfully amazed at his below overpriced market price.
Did I mention he did so in just over 30 minutes and he was located on Yelp?
Hadn't been able to wash dishes or laundry without having disgusting black unidentifiable slurpy liquid fill up the sinks. Gross!
It's been some time since I haven't had to deal with a home warranty company and all the stressful time and money wasting that comes with needing home repairs. I canceled the contract last year with First American Home Warranty after 2 years of solid denials of claims & fighting with them to honor the contract. Freedom @last!!! ;)
Today was the first time out the gate with an independent plumber(this is a helpful consumer, homeowner tip for those searching for such a company; not a ramble).
The Pocket Plunger took the call late in the day; yesterday to be exact and arrived within 4 hours to fix the stopped up drain. He's located in the Arden area too which worked beautifully!
Payment? He takes cash or check and no credit cards. No problem as the money and uber fast service call is worth it's wait in gold. He was time efficient and didn't try to up sell anything. Loved the hell out of this.
Speak Spanish? So does he as well as English! The benefits just keep getting better and he's definitely my go to plumber from here on out.
Antonio did an exceptional job helping unclog my sink after my son had dropped something down the drain. His fee was very reasonable for the work he did. He even took extra time to educate me and consult on another plumbing issue I have and did not charge me for this. I will definitely call him again!
I'm so impressed that Antonio picked up the phone and was at my office in 20 minutes to give me an estimate. I had called 5 different places and he was the most responsive and professional. Definitely recommend him!
Hubert J.Jose responded the same day even though he was very busy. He was very reasonable and took care of us very well. I was impressed with his level of service and would recommend him to friends and family.
Antonio has been great! I have used him so many times and he is very good. He is one of the most honest plumbers out there. I manage apartment buildings downtown midtown and he knows what to do and how to do it. I recommend him to all my friends. Give him a call
Antonio was fantastic. He initially tried to walk me thru trying to identify the problem more clearly. He gave me an appointment and showed up early. While looking at the problem, he continously talked me thru the options and then did a great job fixing my problem. I will have him back for any future problem.
Neil K.Antonio is amazing. I called to get a quote for him to fix our sink and clog a really bad drain (even though we attempted to snake it multiple times). He communicated well as to when he could come out to our house and once he completed the fix, his pricing was very reasonable. I would definitely call him again for future plumbing issues.
We had a major back up in our kitchen sink. I tried to resolve it myself but to no resolve. I searched out a quality plumber on Yelp and that is exactly what I got. We had several days of ""Pioneer Days"" hand washing everything. The Pocket Plunger is fantastic and Great Price. I highly recommend them to anyone who is in need of their services.
