Recommended Customer Reviews

Sal helped us through a really tough clog in the large pipes that backed up all our bathrooms. at each step he gave us reasonable estimates and all the options available if we wanted to spend less. He did a great job too fixing the pipes.

Sal is amazing!
I contacted him over the weekend with a leaky pipe under the sink. Got an appointment Monday. He kept in touch and arrived on time. He explained that the contractors cut the pipe too short and tightened the nuts too tight which caused the pipes to crack. Quick fix and his price is very competitive! I contacted several plumbers in the area and I went based of his reviews, timely response and reasonable estimate, plus he was the nicest guy I talked too. A week later I had another leaky pipe, he wasn't available when I needed him so he recommended another plumber. Great guy, great service. He'll definitely be the main plumber I call.

Sal and his assistant (oops, can't remember his name) went above and beyond in fixing our slow drain. They actually had to climb up on my roof! They were prompt, professional, and I'll definitely use them next time.

Sal came out same day to help us with a gas leak. The problem turned out to be bigger than expected and he wasn't able to work on it but he took the time to walk us through the concerns and possible routes to take. Really thoughtful, thorough, and honest. We'll definitely be calling him for plumbing needs in future.

Sal was simply great. Friendly, professional and gave us great advise. His quote was spot on. He responded quickly after our call and showed up on time. He helped us with a different plumbing issue in our house on the same day! He is now our plumber for life. I would highly recommend Sal for any plumbing need.

Service was great! Responsive, punctual, honest, and got the job done. Thanks Thumbs Up Rooter!

Sal was a lifesaver when my toddler flushed a toy down the toilet, not once but twice! Very professional, honest, skilled, and helpful. He's my go-to plumber now. I highly recommend!

Sal was a lifesaver today. I was fortunate that he could fit my job in. He kept me informed before arriving, and then he cleared my blocked drain and made my kitchen usable again. Highly recommended!

Sal has helped me many times. He is a pro and he is the best. He gets the job done and is very straight forward with his quotes and what he charges for his gas and plumbing services. He upgraded my sewer lateral, which he is the only plumber able to give me an actual price for the scope of work for the permit, materials and job. I've requested estimates from other plumbing and construction companies but Sal gave the best price, and the others estimates for the same job was around $1k to $2k more, and I asked about 6 different contractors.
He also installed my bidet toilet, works like a charm!
Sal fixed my import bathtub leak!
I gave him a mess to work with since my last contractor messed up my plumbing real bad, and left me a giant leak. I have an imported bathtub, and the existing plumbing uses the metric system plumbing, which factored into more work for Sal. He found the right parts and problem solved this fiasco. I'm so thankful for Sal for taking on this project. It took a while to fix the tub leak, but he did it! Before and after pictures posted~
Sal is a Pro! Thank you so much Sal! Will hire again when needed!

Same day service. Had Sal replace a broken faucet, going to Home Depot to pick up a new one and being in and out (including the Home Depot run) in less than 2 hours on a Friday evening. Total cost was $175 to install and $240 (I think) to install + the home depot run which was discussed ahead of time and agreed on.
