Call (310) 889-0506What plumbing services does Mr. Rooter of Torrance offer?
Drain Cleaning
Slow drain, or nothing going down at all? We pull out the whole blockage instead of poking a hole through the middle of it, which is why our work doesn't come back in three weeks. Kitchen, bathroom, floor drains, and main lines.
- Kitchen sink clogs
- Bathroom & shower drains
- Main line cleaning
- Floor drains
Rooter Service
The old reliable. A rotating cable goes down the line, chews through roots and gunk, and pulls it out. It's the method the name is built on, and it's still the right call for a lot of Torrance drains.
- Tree root intrusion
- Grease buildup
- Debris blockages
- Recurring clogs
Hydro Jetting
Think of it as a pressure wash for the inside of your pipes. High-pressure water strips off the grease, scale, and roots coating the walls — not just the plug in the middle. We camera the line first to make sure it can take it.
- Grease & scale removal
- Restaurant & commercial use
- Preventive maintenance
- Post-repair cleaning
Sewer Line Repair & Replacement
Nobody should dig up a yard on a hunch. We send a camera down the line, find the exact spot, and show you the footage. From there it's either trenchless lining or traditional excavation, whichever actually fits your pipe.
- Video camera inspection
- Trenchless pipe lining
- Full sewer replacement
- Root clearing
Faucet, Fixture & Bathroom Plumbing
Dripping faucets, toilets that run all night, shower valves that won't shut off. Small jobs, but they nag at you. We repair or replace, and we leave the bathroom cleaner than we found it.
- Faucet repair & replacement
- Shower & tub valve repair
- Toilet repair & replacement
- Sink & disposal installation
Pipe Repair & Leak Detection
The leaks you can't see are the ones that do real damage. We narrow down the location with listening and pressure equipment before we open anything up, so you're not left with a wall full of holes.
- Slab leak detection
- Pipe repiping
- Water line repair
- Copper & PEX piping
Everything Else We Do
Here's the long list, grouped so it's easier to find what you're dealing with. Homes, apartments, and businesses across Torrance and the South Bay.
Emergency Plumbing
When water's running where it shouldn't, the clock matters. Shut off the main if you can, then call us — we're up at 3 a.m. same as 3 p.m., and the price doesn't change.
Drain & Sewer Services
This is the bread and butter of a rooter company. One slow sink is usually a quick job. Several fixtures backing up at once means the main line, and that's when the camera comes out before anything else.
Leak Detection & Pipe Repair
The leaks that cost the most are the ones nobody sees. We find the spot first with listening gear, pressure tests, and a camera, so we open up as little of your wall, slab, or yard as possible.
Water Heaters
Cold showers, rusty water, a puddle under the tank. We'll tell you straight whether yours has good years left or it's time for a new one, and we carry common units on the truck.
Fixtures & Bathroom Plumbing
The everyday stuff — a toilet that runs all night, a valve that won't stop dripping — plus the bigger bathroom projects. Drop cloths down, shoe covers on, mess cleaned up.
Backflow & Water Quality
Backflow devices keep dirty water out of your clean supply, and plenty of properties are required to have them tested. We handle the testing, the repairs, and the paperwork side of valves and softeners.
Sump Pumps
A sump pump only matters on the day it has to run. We service, replace, and add backups so it actually turns on when the water comes.
Inspections & Maintenance
Cheaper to look than to repair. A yearly once-over catches the corroded valve or the root-filled line while it's still a small job.
Commercial & Specialty Services
Restaurants, offices, retail, and property managers all work on someone else's schedule. We plan the work around yours and quote it flat, whether it's one fixture or a whole building.
Second-Generation Plumber, 26+ Years on the Tools
This is a family business in the plain sense of the phrase. Our owner grew up in a family of plumbers and picked up the trade as a teenager — that's more than 26 years on the tools now. There isn't much in this line of work he hasn't run into at least once.
He spent the first stretch of his career plumbing luxury new-construction homes, a lot of them, across Palos Verdes, Redondo Beach, Rolling Hills Estates, and Manhattan Beach. Ten years in, with that work slowing down and a change on his mind, he bought a Mr. Rooter franchise and turned toward service and repair for South Bay homeowners and businesses.
He hasn't stepped away from the work since. He trains every technician himself, still gets out on jobs alongside them, and puts eyes on every large project the company takes on before it's called finished.
Specialists in Complex & Custom Plumbing
Everyday repairs are most of what we do, but our owner's real specialty is the complicated, high-stakes stuff a lot of plumbers would rather pass on. He's spent enough years at it to design a system, troubleshoot one that's misbehaving, or make an existing one work better.
Our Promise: Honest Work at a Fair Price
It's a simple idea: do great work at a reasonable price. We don't gouge people and we don't cut corners to hit a number — we do the job properly and charge about what the industry charges. You can find someone cheaper. What you won't easily find is this quality of work and level of service for the money.
Fast response
We do everything we can to be at your place within an hour of the call.
Free estimates & financing
Estimates don't cost you anything, unless the only way to give you one is to run a diagnostic. If the number's a stretch, ask about financing.
Honest, fixed pricing
Flat, fixed pricing and no bait-and-switch. We tell you straight what we found, lay out the options, and you pick the one you're comfortable with. We don't start a job and then go looking for reasons the price should go up.
Backed by strong warranties
Most of our jobs carry a 10 to 20-year warranty. We're not putting that in writing on work we expect to fail.
Plumbing Service FAQs
What's a plumber going to cost me in Torrance?
That depends on the job, and anyone who quotes you a number over the phone without seeing it is guessing. Here's how it works with us: we come out, find what's actually wrong, and hand you a flat price for the fix before we start. You say yes or no. There's no hourly clock running and no overtime added for nights, weekends, or holidays. Call (310) 889-0506 and we'll get you scheduled.
Can you come out today, or in the middle of the night?
Both. We keep room in the schedule for same-day work, and we run emergency calls 24 hours a day across Torrance and the South Bay — burst pipes, sewer backups, dead water heaters. You'll get a person on the phone, not a voicemail box, and we send the closest available tech.
Are your plumbers licensed and insured?
Yes — licensed, insured, and background-checked, every one of them. They put down floor coverings and wear shoe covers in your house, and the work is guaranteed when they leave.
Do you charge extra for nights, weekends, or holidays?
Never have, never will. The flat rate we quote is the same at 2 a.m. on Thanksgiving as it is on a Tuesday morning.
What areas do you serve?
Torrance is home base, and we cover the South Bay around it: Redondo Beach, Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach, Palos Verdes, Gardena, Lomita, and Carson. If you're not sure whether you're in range, call (310) 889-0506 and ask — odds are good.
Do you guarantee your work?
We do. Parts and workmanship both carry the Mr. Rooter guarantee. If something we fixed isn't right, call us and we'll come back out.
