Clear Plumbing

Clear Plumbing handles plumbing work around Richmond, CA. Their crew takes on toilet replacements, shut off valve installs, water line repairs to sinks and appliances, drain clogs and reorganizing old pipe runs. Technicians named in reviews include Marco, Santos, Ygnacio, Rudy, Yonathan and Daniel. The company shows up for both single jobs and repeat calls from the same homes over time.

Customers describe Marco and Santos putting in four new toilets complete with valves while hauling away the old units and boxes without leaving scraps behind. Ygnacio and Rudy replaced a leaking main line to a dishwasher and refrigerator with a braided version that they extended for easier access, then fixed the valves and cleaned under the appliances. Yonathan walked through pipe problems in plain terms, offered straight advice on what could wait and turned a jumble of old lines into a layout that holds up better. Daniel traced a clog past the reach of a snake, pulled the blockage by hand and left instructions to keep it from coming back.

Reviewers note the crew stays on schedule, explains each step as the work moves along and charges less than other outfits for the same drain clearing. They clean up after themselves, keep communication direct and give honest input on future needs without pushing extra work. The same homes call back because the fixes hold and the team leaves the space ready to use right away.

“Marco and Santos installed 4 new toilets. They did a fabulous job and left no mess, they even took the boxes that the new toilets came in and hauled away the old toilets. They were very professional and extremely nice. I will definitely be keeping their number for all my future plumbing needs. Also I had them install 4 new toilet shut-off valves. Highly recommend using these plumbers.”

“We’ve had Superior Plumbing help us on numerous occasions over many years, and they are consistently wonderful. Today, Ygnacio and Rudy came by to fix a leak in the main waterline from under the sink to the dishwasher and refrigerator. It involved several leaks from the valves along the line and a pinhole leak in the line itself. They replaced the line using one with a braided sheath to prevent any breaks in the future. They made it longer so the fridge can more easily be moved out of the way for cleaning and inspection. They repaired the leaking valves, and also cleaned under the sink and under and behind the dishwasher and refrigerator. The leaks had been bad enough to warp our laminated floorboards - the first thing I noticed was a large puddle in the same place 3 days in a row. I thought it was our old dog, but knew he was innocent when he was locked upstairs with me one night and the puddle still formed. It turned out there were more puddles hidden underneath the appliances Anyway, Rudy and Ygnacio got the situation fixed. They were efficient and really nice, as all of Superior’s plumbers are, in my experience. The price was much lower than I expected. Ygnacio quoted a higher price in his estimate, but charged a much lower one, when they discovered that they could easily repair instead of replace some valves. Replacing would have involved going into the wall because the valve handles were too recessed, I think. I’ve always felt safe in Superior’s hands. They’re very good at what they do, and they’re as honest as the day is long. They don’t charge as much as they should, either, in my opinion.”

“Yonathan was great. He’s a good communicator and goes into depth about what your situation is, what it needs and what you might need in the future. Very honest and even gives good advice on work you can do yourself. He took our mess of old pipes and made something that made sense and will be easier to maintain in the future. Would definitely call them again.”

“Daniel and his support team at the office were professional, timely, transparent, and priced their service competitively (a bit more than half the cost to snake the drain compared to other well rated plumbers in the area). Daniel also went above and beyond, tracing the clog to a specific stretch of pipe and hand removing it when the snake couldn’t clean it out. When it was all cleared, he gave me clear, easy to follow advice on how to avoid the issue in the future. Will definitely call them again, but may not have to!”

“I needed a plumber for a clogged drain and this company was great. They were quick, with great communication. The service was good and everything explained along the way. I will use them again”
