A Full-Service Plumber for Costa Mesa and Central Orange County
Reliable Rooter & Plumbing has been the plumber Costa Mesa families call first since 1992. We are a second-generation, family-owned company, and we treat your home the way we would treat our own: clear quotes before any work starts, clean job sites, and repairs done right the first time. Whether you need emergency plumbing service today or drain cleaning and rooter service for a stubborn clog, our licensed team is minutes away.
We handle the big jobs and the small ones. Our crews perform water heater repair and installation, electronic leak detection, slab leak repair, and whole-home repiping in PEX or copper. Before any major sewer work, we run a sewer camera inspection so you can see exactly what is wrong before you spend a dollar on repairs.
Day to day, we keep Orange County kitchens and bathrooms running with faucet and fixture repair, garbage disposal repair, and bathtub and shower plumbing. We also install and service gas lines to current safety codes, perform certified backflow testing and repair with the paperwork filed for you, and offer Bio-Clean drain treatment to keep drains flowing naturally.
