EXCELLENT Based on 49 reviews Posted on Barbara WeissTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I got 3 estimates for a trenchless replacement of my sewer pipe from the front yard to the street. I was very impressed by Alex who came out to look over the project in order to make an accurate estimate. He made notes of my concerns about certain large plants which would need to be uprooted and assured me that they would be set aside and replanted. It was also necessary to remove 3 stones from a custom walkway near the entry point of their equipment and, again, Alex made a note of the extra attention required and included it in his written estimate. Alex explained the process, step by step from exposure of pipe, to hole digging, to permit and replacement. He gave me a best and worst case timeline (depending on when a city inspector would be available to sign off). The estimate was in my email box by the end of the day. The crew arrived on schedule and all work was done promptly and completed on schedule. There was just one hour when I was unable to flush the toilet due to the work in progress. Thomas was there to oversee the project and make sure things were done correctly and that care was taken to protect my landscaping and stone pathway. I could not be more satisfied with the work done and how much attention was paid by Thomas to leaving my property in good and clean, tidy repair. I recommend this company!Posted on gudni gudnasonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have had guys come out to snake a toilet when two other contractors had failed to clear the clog. Admittedly, it was not easy… I know this because their snake came with an inspection camera and a video feed. They had their work cut out for them. The clog was not just at the toilet, but continued far down the plumbing line. They worked really hard, we’re really fair and professional. Most of all they got the job done, and got it done right! Thanks! You will be my go to in the future.Posted on David SchneiderTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fantastic! TrenchFree connected me with Axel at Drain & Water to scope out my sewer line woes. Their thorough attention to detail at the free estimate and competitive pricing won me over, and they did not disappoint! Prompt, efficient, and high-quality work. I was kept updated every step of the way, turning what could have been a major headache into a stress-free repair.Posted on Sergio MunozTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Drain & Water have been servicing company facilities since the beginning of 2025 and without a doubt Axel and Thomas always get the work done in a timely manner at an affordable price.Posted on Karin McClungTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our sewer line backed up yesterday. This morning we were in desperate need of getting this problem fixed ASAP. Two years ago DRAIN AND WATER, INC had done an incredible installation of a TRENCHLESS DRAIN in our yard, so I called them to see if they also cleared blocked sewer drains. I spoke with Oscar, explained the situation and he arranged to have a truck come out. IN LESS THAN 30 MINUTES, their truck arrived with Thomas and Axel who got right to work and had the blockage removed within 15 minutes! It was amazing! Axel and Thomas are true professionals, they were kind, courteous, and explained what needed to be done. They also gave us information about other services DRAIN AND WATER, INC offer. I highly recommend DRAIN AND WATER, INC and will definitely call them in the future for plumbing and drain problems. Thank you Oscar, Axel and Thomas, for a great job! TWO BIG THUMBS UP 👍👍 AND FIVE STARS ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐!Posted on Daphna YagourTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very professional, reliable team. I will definitely continue to work with them.Posted on Eduardo InzunzaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently had a drain line repaired in the crawl space of my home, and I was impressed with the service. From the moment I called, Axel responded promptly, clearly explained the problem, and outlined exactly how it would be fixed. The repair was scheduled for the very next day, and the team arrived right on time. Axel, Thomas, and Victor demonstrated exceptional professionalism throughout the job—keeping me informed every step of the way. Working in a crawl space is no easy task, but they handled it with skill, efficiency, and attention to detail to ensure the repair was done right. They documented their work thoroughly, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Even after working in tight, dirty conditions, they left the area clean—a true sign of the pride they take in their craft. If you’re looking for a company that delivers prompt, professional, and clean service, I highly recommend Axel and his team at Drain & Water.Posted on Willie KimTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our house was built over 50 years ago, and we pretty much remodeled every part of the house except the sewer lines under the house. And of course, last week we had a sewage disaster in our garage. We first called one company that is known for doing good work for really low prices. They were going to need to dig up the concrete in our newly remodeled garage in several spaces and take nearly a week to complete the project. I vaguely remembered that Drain & Water approached these projects differently because of their trenchless technology. So I called for an estimate and Axel & Thomas came out to look at the problem. They explained how their solution could work, and gave me an estimate that was very competitive, wouldn't need to break up concrete in our garage, and was faster. Because I didn't know anyone else who had used them before, I was a little cautious, but it turned out to be a great decision. Axel and Thomas' team was extremely professional, clean, and careful. They were always punctual, and did a fantastic job. After they were finished with the job, they showed me everything they did and I couldn't be happier. Thank you Drain & Water -- I highly recommend this company!Posted on Veronica PrezTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. they were prompt in time and explained everything that needed to be explained very well.

Frequently Asked Questions About General Plumbing Services
How much does a plumber cost in Silicon Valley?
Drain snaking uses a rotating cable to break through clogs, providing immediate relief for simple blockages. Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water to completely clean pipe walls, removing all buildup and preventing future clogs. Hydro jetting is more thorough and longer-lasting, especially for grease, scale, and tree roots.
Do you offer same-day plumbing service?
Yes! We offer same-day service for most plumbing repairs and installations throughout Silicon Valley. For emergencies, we provide 24/7 response with technicians available nights, weekends, and holidays.
How do I know if I need to repair or replace my toilet/faucet?
Generally, if repair costs exceed 50% of replacement cost, or if your fixture is over 15 years old, replacement is more cost-effective. Our plumbers will assess your situation and provide honest recommendations based on your budget and long-term savings.
What causes low water pressure in my home?
Common causes include corroded pipes (especially in older Bay Area homes), faulty pressure regulators, partially closed shutoff valves, clogged aerators, or leaks in your plumbing system. Our diagnostic service identifies the exact cause and provides targeted solutions.
Can you install water-efficient plumbing fixtures?
Absolutely! We specialize in installing WaterSense-certified toilets, low-flow faucets, and efficient showerheads that can reduce your water consumption by 20-60% while maintaining excellent performance—important for California's water conservation efforts.
Where is my main water shutoff valve located?
In most Silicon Valley homes, the main shutoff is near the water meter, typically in the front yard near the street or in a basement/crawl space. We offer complimentary shutoff valve location and labeling with any service call, plus emergency assistance if you can't locate it during a crisis.
Do you service commercial properties?
Yes! We provide general plumbing services for apartment complexes, restaurants, retail spaces, and commercial buildings throughout Silicon Valley. We understand the importance of minimizing business disruption and offer flexible scheduling.
Are your plumbers licensed and insured?
All our plumbers are fully licensed, bonded, and insured in California. We maintain current certifications and ongoing training to ensure we meet the highest industry standards.
Do you offer warranties on your plumbing work?
Yes, we stand behind our workmanship with comprehensive warranties on both labor and parts. Specific warranty terms vary by service—ask your technician for details.
