Razor Rooter Plumbing

I shopped around for sewer pipe re-​lining, and Martin not only gave the best price of three that I spoke to, he also was very flexible in planning the work conveniently around my tenant’s and my schedules.
He and his crew were quick, efficient, and the pipe looks great now (he ran a camera down before and after). I was especially pleased that he stuck to his original bid even when things got slightly more involved — other plumbers I know would add onto the price once they’re halfway into the job.
He came back for free to check up on the connection when it was dripping, and put some serious thought into figuring out why it was leaking, and solved it.
I totally will be calling him next time any problems come up in my rental houses.

AVOID THIS COMPANY AND MARTIN
I was originally gonna let this go but maybe I can save someone from a horrible experience and expensive lesson so this is a bit of a late and lengthy review.
This past Easter Sunday 2016, we noticed a leak coming from our upstairs bathroom. Being the normal guy we use is out of town, I decided to look at Unilocal.I found this company and called them around 9am to have someone come in and check the leak in which I was informed that it would be considered and emergency service (holiday) and would cost $ 150 to which given the situation I was fine with. I was also informed that if any work needs to be done the $ 150 could be applied to the cost of the job which to me was great. I was informed that the guy would arrive between 12 to 2 and was asked if I wanted a courtesy call prior to arrival to which I said yes.
2pm pass and still no call and around 230pm I hear a truck outside of my door (what happened to the courtesy call?) Martin then shows up clearly not in the mood to be at my house. He then ask me where the leak is and lead him to it. BEFORE even seeing what the leak is or where it was coming from he says «I have to cut your whole ceiling off… Don’t worry your insurance will cover it» I told him no, there’s an entry way for you to look at the leak first before deciding to mangle our home. He had the awful attitude when I said this and mentions «I can’t do it today anyways». He then points a flashlight around and then says «we need to replace your toilet. I can work on it today but it’s double pay» ($ 650) this is where I declined his service (mind you he’s been at my house for 2 mins at this point). He also tries to push for a flooring company to come in and rip off our floors and again says «your insurance will cover this» again I decline. I then ask how much it would cost to fix if I had him come back the next day. He said it’s normal labor costs but I lose the $ 150 I initially paid. I then mention that there was no mention of the $ 150 being available for that day only, this is where I hear the most unprofessional part «well, it doesn’t make sense for me to deduct the $ 150 as that’s just for me to show up here today». I mentioned that I was not informed that the $ 150 is only good that day, but he just said «No, but if I do it today well deduct it”(double pay) and continues to write for the fee and was rushing to leave at this point (less than 10 mins at my house). I didn’t want to deal with this as obviously this Martin guy is a SCAM and probably does more work than what is actually needed to make that extra buck and just wanted him out of my house at this point. Lost $ 150 but lesson learned and hopefully saves some of you from losing out like me.
I would NEVER EVER RECOMMEND Martin and would give ZERO STARS if it was an option.

My house drain was clogged. I was told they would show up between 8:30 — 8:45. Martin showed up right at 8:30. Martin was a very nice guy and very informative. He checked out my house drain which had unclogged itself, (it was a soft clog). Martin gave me the option to leave the drain alone since drainage looked really good or he could still clean out if I wished. I decided to leave alone and got charged nothing. Very surprised and very pleased. No pressure whatsoever. I highly recommend. I will definitely call back if needed. Thanks Martin!

Martin made an effort to call me back on Easter Sunday regarding a sewer line clog.
He called the next day, as promised, and arrived within the given time frame. Although the plumbing issue was a little more difficult than anticipated, he pushed through until resolved. Prices were actually reasonable with no BS. Highly recommend.

I called Razor rooter when my kitchen faucet water pressure was very low. I couldn’t even wash dishes for a few days, and I was so worried that it was going to be a problem with the pipes, but Rudy identified the problem, and restored the water pressure he also fixed a leak in my restroom faucet. He came the same day I called him and completed the work in under one hour. I was so impressed.

I HIGHLY recommend these guys for any of your plumbing needs. I contacted Martin after reading all of the positive reviews and I was so happy to find that their service stood up to the reputation. They are responsive, thorough and reasonably priced. I’ve since recommended them to family and friends. It’s nice to have found a plumber whom I trust.

One peaceful Sunday afternoon, as i was about to shower i notice my sewer line begin back up into the shower!
Thankfully i was able to stop it before it got out if my shower pan. Clearly in a panic, i hit my trusty Unilocal app and up pops Martin with 50 or so positive reviews.
Surely 50 people can’t be wrong, right? So i dial him up and within a few hours he was able to come down & drain my sewer line.
Long story short, Martin was really nice, helpful & cleared everything up within about 45 minutes.
I’ve never needed a plumber before but I’m glad i found one that is local & that i can trust.

We called multiple plumbers to try to get quick service when our toilets were backed up, causing water and sewage to back up into the bathtub. One plumber was going to charge an additional $ 150 because it was going to soon be 5:00pm and that was considered after-​hours. Martin didn’t charge an additional «emergency fee» for this time, and he was able to come within 20 minutes. He did a great job, going through the roof to unclog the main line. He was professional and had a fair price. We would use his service again.

I highly recommend Martin of Razor Rooter for your plumbing needs. He quickly responded to my phone call and was able to make it to my house within the hour even though he was 20 miles away at the time. He ran the rooter thru the mainline clean-​out and fixed the drain clog quickly without trying to «up-​sell» me on something I didn’t need (like some other services). I will keep his contact info for any future plumbing problems that arises. Call Martin, you won’t be disappointed.

Martin from Razor Rooter was professional and took care of our refrigerator water line install very fast and hassle free. Would definitely call them again.

I am sharing my experience today too, in hopes to help others that are looking for a very good service to fix the main drain. Razor Rooter Plumbing (Martin) came out he is the owner and I had a very delightful interaction with him personally. He was straight forward and promised to fix it right the first time with no hassle his prices are reasonable which was my main concern? affordable! and he is local too. No more need to worry about finding another plumber again thank you Martin.

My toilet and bathtub water would not drain because I had a clog. To top it off, when I left my washer on, it caused the water in both the bathtub and the toilet to keep rising, until it finally overflowed onto the floor.
I had another plumber (not razor rooter) come look at it – what a waste of money, because they did not fix the clog. But that’s when I decided to call Razor rooter, and what a relief. Martin is the best, he answered right away and told me he would be by within an hour. When he arrived, he identified the problem and fixed it. He was super professional, and friendly! Would recommend to anyone.

Bathroom and Kitchen were flooded! Called these guys and they were at my house within two hours, they got straight to business and fixed the problem. They were nice and friendly, excellent customer service. The price was reasonable and I would definitely call them for any plumbing issues in the future. So glad I found them!

While taking a shower, the valve stem burst off and water was splashing everywhere. I immediately turned off the water to the house. Thinking I could fix this myself, I brought the old valve over to Home Depot and tried to look for the same valve stem. But after discovering that it broke off the threads as well… hmmm. So, I ended up purchasing brand new hardware thinking, now I’m gonna need to hire a plumber. Just great. Where can you find a reliable, quality plumber nowadays?
After searching through the Internet close to my residence, I came across Razor Rooter. I did research on the company first. Look at his web reviews and saw all 5 stars. But it got me thinking as an IT tech. He’s only posting his 5 star reviews. But, Unilocal tells all stories. So, I read some reviews on Unilocal,liked what I saw and called him at around 9:30pm. He answered and I told him my story and asked him approximately what it would cost to install a new shower valve system. I told him I had a tile shower and I didn’t want it damaged, but the back side was a small bathroom that he could access from the backside.
As most contractors, they are very hesitant in giving a prices over the phone without looking at what they are up against. I can understand this. I’m a contractor myself in IT Services. But, I just asked for a ballpark figure. He asked me what my budget was which was very thoughtful. I told him I wanted a quality job, so what is the price? He told me a price and I was expecting another price. He accepted site unseen. He asked if I wanted him out there right now and I said no.
Martin came out the next day and I told him I had to work in the morning and he was very accommodating. Called me up and I asked him to call me when he was 15 minutes away, so I could drive home from work to meet him. He was super punctual. Off to a great start.
He wanted to start right way, but I wanted to firm up the price first. We talked and agreed to what we said on the phone. Thumbs up!
Took him up to the suspect shower. OK, down to business. I watched him for the first 30 minutes to hour and I knew he was up against a monster of a job, but he had super patience and made sure he was meticulous on his workmanship.
This was a typical 2 – 3 hour job that took him over 5 hours and he never complained, was very professional and performed quality workmanship. He asked me to inspect as I did and all was well.
Once he was all finished, and I was satisfied with the job, we sat down to complete the transaction. I was super pleased with his workmanship and professionalism.
I would have no hesitation to refer Razor Rooter (Martin)…Excellent job Martin. I will definitely hire you again.

Call Martin when you buy that new fridge and need to add a water line with the best materials (not the Home Depot stuff). Punctual, professional, knowledgeable and he provided service with a smile. Martin lives up to the Unilocal hype. Crystal clear filtered water coming through.

Look no further! Martin is very nice and honest. He is knowledgeable and patient in explaining what needs to be done. On top of that, he gave me a very generous discount! He is definitely the to-​go person for all the plumbing issues!

Would definitely use again. Our plumber Martin Rodriguez was friendly and helpful to our needs. What I really like was how I had a plumbing problem in the morning, a plumber appointment at noon, and a plumber at my doorstep by 6pm. Can’t beat same-​day service!

Martin came out early in the morning on the same day I called him. We have a difficult drain and he snaked the thing from 9 – 12 in the morning and didn’t give up until he had it unstopped. He also fixed a leaky faucet that had been plaguing me for awhile. All the while he was very helpful and friendly. The bottom line is that he is knowledgeable, competent, friendly and reasonable when it comes to pricing. He is our go to plumber now. I would and will recommend him to all my friends and family.

When you wake up in the morning and do your business, you expect things to go down smoothly. So you would imagine the horror on my face when it didn’t.
It’s true, no one likes calling a plumber to fix the job, it’s over-​priced, it takes long, it’s awkward and you still end up feeling like crap (pun intended).
After being overcharged at three consultations by three different companies, we found Razor Rooter who dunked the rest of them in the toilet!
I’m sure you have probably groaned at my review at least a few times but something you won’t facepalm are the prices. Our guy Martin gave us a very competitive price for some usually expensive services. Not only did he give us prices but he helped us understand why we were paying for the service without being crass. Martin also provided really good customer service. He was really careful with our house and plumbing systems and he was all around a nice guy.
Overall, things go down the way they’re supposed to, without our wallet going empty.
Razor Rooter was cheap, fast, and painless. I would recommend them, and use this business again and again before I call the rest.

Great service from a local business owner here in West Covina. I checked with many other local companies in the area and they were way more expensive by around 50% more. I called Razor and they were able to come with in one hour to help me rooter a bath tub.
They knew just what needed to be done and took the time needed to make sure it’s done right which was actually pretty fast. Also answered my other plumbing questions and inspected my toilets and adjusted them to make sure they were running right. Also told me my options for replacing a shower handle valve. My plumber Martin was friendly and provided great info. Highly recommend this place for all your plumbing needs.
