About us

JOIN OUR PLUMBING FAMILY TODAY Plumbing problems are some of the most common issues that a homeowner will face. Plumbing is also one job that many people choose not to tackle on their own. Sometimes a problem is simple and can be fixed easily, while other times the job may require the help of a professional. Without the knowledge of a skilled plumber, it can be difficult to know how big of a project you are getting yourself into, and it can be even more difficult to fix the problem right the first time. No matter how big or small the job may be, for those living in the greater Los Angeles area, the professional technicians of Reckon & Reckon Plumbing are there to help. At Reckon & Reckon Plumbing, it is our goal to become the service you call whenever you have any type of plumbing problem. We have been in business since the 1920's, and we pride ourselves on gaining the trust of our customers and becoming their family plumbers. Our technicians are highly-trained, knowledgeable, professional, friendly, clean, and respectful individuals, and it is their goal to provide the solution you need in the most timely and cost effective manner possible. They come to your home with fully-stocked work vehicles and state of the art plumbing equipment, which means that they will not need to leave your home until the job is done. When they do leave, they make sure to leave your home looking even better than it did before their arrival. Although many other plumbing companies charge by the hour for their services, at Reckon & Reckon Plumbing we charge by the job. This means that our customers do not have to worry about incurring costly overtime charges simply because a job takes longer than anticipated. It also means that our customers know up front how much the service is going to cost.

The guy was very punctual, even a little early! We had a leak in our bathroom tub faucet. He came out and gave a free estimate. My husband and I decided to move forward and he completed the work in maybe 3 hours or so. He had to get some supplies. Basically he had to completely replace the faucet. The only bad thing was that he had to cut a hole in our bedroom wall to get to the pipes. But that wasn't his fault. I didn't do any competitive bidding so I don't know if his price was a deal or not but my husband was ok with it. To this day we've had no more leaking so I'm happy.

We actually switched plumbers. We thought they were just kind of high price. We would let other people know that. We spent about $1500. They said it would be like $800 just to go under and look at the pipe that was having delays. If there is a problem, we would use them again in the future.
Description of Work: We used Reckon & Reckon Plumbing Co Inc 1 year ago. We got a water heater and then we had several things fixed. We were having delays in the pipe, so they kind of cut it for us.

It was fine. I called at about 4:45 in the afternoon and they were here at about 5:30 to fix it. It is my only toilet so it is an emergency when it gets stopped up. He was very nice and he gave me some good advice. I thought it was a lot of money, but I paid it because I was so appreciative of them coming out.

My kitchen drain was clogged. I emailed them for an appointment that evening. I like that they have an e-mail option on their webpage, but I thought it would be best to call the next morning to confirm the e-mail when I didn't receive a response. The woman who answered the phone had a lovely voice, and said she didn't receive the email, but would schedule service for me that same day. I know technology can be unpredictable, but I am glad she was friendly and scheduled the appointment. The technicians arrived between the hours as per phone conversation. They were clean, friendly and knowledgeable. I had a coupon from Angie's List which motivated me to call them ,and as a home owner, made the price easier on my pocketbook; however, as I see it, for a little more money than I was expecting to pay, I got quality and was not annoyed by someone investigating my house for possible, expensive future jobs. The technicians went straight to the kitchen, assessed the problem, gave me a quote, accepted the coupon, did the work, and left within 30 minutes. The whole time, they were polite and friendly. The sink drains as it should which is the task I requested and agreed to pay for.
Description of Work: They unclogged the kitchen drain.

They came out in May. It was kind of an emergency so they did a quick turnaround to get into my house like some hours after I called them. They did the job the same day and everything is working great so far. I had a backup plumbing issue and it had to do with the outside line.

So far, so good. I hope not to have to make yet another call even though they were very accommodating.
Description of Work: Reckon and Reckon came to my house for work that envolved my sprinkler system, yard drains and clearing drains inside the house. After they left I noticed some of my sprinklers acting erratically. I called them back and they came to correct the problem. I was upset because the sprinklers hit windows leaving spots I could not remove and since had to be cleaned by a professional. The third time they had to return to my house was to deal with my yard drains that had no caps or would not drain. They were very apologetic and corrected the problem. I know there are times when all does not go as planned and do not hold it against them. I appreciate that they want to please their customers and stand by their work.

The clearing of the drains inside my home took a matter of minutes and have worked perfectly since. The sprinklers in my yard however had taken a life of their own. They adjusted and changed out some sprinkler heads but some started hitting my windows causing spots that do not come off and others are hitting areas that do not need water, like my fence. I called Reckon & Reckon to come back to fix the sprinkler heads and they did. Now, the outside drains are backing up and I noticed that some drains do not have filter caps. I will be calling again hoping their warranty is still good.
Description of Work: I hired Reckon & Reckon after viewing the reports on Angies List and I saw their cute van in my area. After explaining the trouble I was having with the sprinkler system in the front and back yard, I also asked if the drains inside my home could be cleared.

Victor's team showed up promptly, and tried to located the source of the leak. Determined that it was best to call in a company that does leak detection. The next morning both companies showed up, leak was found and plumbers cut the slab and uncovered the leak. Pipe was too badly damaged to repair, so a new line was run to the same location. Rather than running the pipe underground at significant cost, they offered a second option where the pipe could be routed above ground and through the garage. I selected this option and they got the job done quickly. Another plumber (highly rated on Angie's List) told me that I needed to clean out the sewer line every spring, so I asked Victor about that. He offered to snake the drain and see if the other plumber was right. There weren't any roots in the drain, so there isn't a need to do a yearly cleaning.

I have used them a number of times over the years. They have helped unclog and clean the drains and plumbing system for us after a hard rain storm. They installed a sewer line, as the roots destroyed the old one. They have also done other general plumbing work for us. The sewer and drain lines are still working properly and I would recommend them to others.

Stay away from them. I called them 31 days after they did the work since the same problem arose. I called the owner, who was not even compassionate since I was on a limited budget, and he said I was past the guarantee and he would charge me to come back out to fix it. I used another company to come out and do the job.

I continue to use them because I can call them at whatever time and they will have someone out right away. I think they are fairly priced. If it is a big project they allows you to make payments, like when we had our main line replaced.
Description of Work: We have been using them for 30 years for plumbing. They replaced the main line. They have unclogged sinks and bathtubs. they have added lines and replaced lines for added water. They installed a sump pump. They have replaced our water heater twice. One time our water heater was bad and they came out and replaces it with no problem. They did drain cleaning most recently as well as replacing some washers. They replaced all my faucets over a period of years.

Their work is top quality and they do not skimp on materials. They do not use flimsy copper tubing they do use real copper piping. They stand behind their work 100% yet we have not had to use that. When we call they are very responsive. You don't always get what you pay for, but you always pay for what you get.
Description of Work: Michael came out to maintain the tank less water heater. They also checked the toilets and the faucets and their was no extra charge for that. They have done all of our plumbing work for the last 20 years. He is usually in the neighborhood and will stop by his customers homes to see if there is anything to be done for them. They do have a special technique they use when they unclog a drain. They have had to do that for us before and we have had zero problems with the drainage since.
