Plumbing reviews in Simi Valley, California

Steven came to give me an estimate on a septic system for our new ADU. He was very kind and helpful and full of good information. On top of that he helped me with a small plumbing issue that I was not expecting to have done. So I would definitely have Steven come back anytime!

Ask for Geovanni Penate

This is our second time working with Team Rooter Venture Inc in the Ventura, CA area.

In 2024, we thoroughly researched and contacted multiple plumbers in the area.  This company was able to schedule service right away (even on the weekend).  They work 24/7 and can show up afterhours and holidays.  They also send confirmation texts for appointments, surveys, etc. and emails for invoice and home inspections should you choose.  Team Rooter had the best pricing for our clogged kitchen sink.  We were so pleased with the work they did that we called Team Rooter again in 2026 for a different plumbing problem.  I liked that they had complete records of the last time they were out.  *FYI, after the plumbing work is complete, they send out a report with a description of the scope of work done.

This month, Geovanni was assigned to us and he is the best  - professional, courteous, knowledgeable, and more than capable. He is the type of plumber I would feel safe referring to my grandmother if she had a plumbing issue.

Professional - I appreciated that Geovanni would call and give a 30 minutes heads up before he arrived and he's pretty punctual.  (Can't stand when other vendors or deliveries would give you a 4 hour window so you're stuck just waiting.)  He brought his tools and laptop to visually show up pricing breakdown and clearly explained our options. I want to know what we will be spending upfront.

Courteous - Geovanni is so polite and well spoken.  He acknowledged my children and always wore shoe covers inside the house. He is meticulous and he would put things back if he moved them out of his way.  Some areas of our house were cleaner after he left than before he got there.

Knowledgeable - Geovanni also answered all of our questions (and I had a bunch in the 5 days he was at our house).  He explained in a way we understood. If there was something he didn't know, he would figure it out.  And this is how we met Israel, who also works with Team Rooter.  I think it's great that the Simi Valley office works together to get the job done.  I felt very confident that our plumbing would be in order at a reasonable price by the time they left us. *We also got to meet the Jetter operator and Steven (manager I believe) from Team Rooter.

Workmanship - Geovanni worked quickly and efficiently.  The plastic and copper pipes he redid look way better than they did before... instead of multiple right angles, he angled them to flow better and reduce a collection of water (which started our problem in the first place).  He also performed some drywall repair after replacing the pipes, and we were very impressed by his drywall work (he took the time to really match the existing walls on multiple floors in our house).  I am just thankful he was able to fix all of our water issues.

If we have problems in the future, I would def call Team Rooter again.  We recommend Geovanni and Team Rooter to all of our friends, family, and neighbors. I believe they have offices to cover from Santa Barbara to San Diego.

I had a very positive experience with Team Rooter and the customer service provided by their team member, Ethan. He showed up on time, very professional, and explained everything he was doing. He was thorough in checking various sources for my plumbing issue before making a diagnosis. He listened to my concerns and addressed them. I also appreciated the free Whole House Check, including an emergency shutoff valve. A positive experience overall!

Giovani was great! He was thorough with troubleshooting my issue on my toilet and it seemingly being plugged. His troubleshooting though pointed to a bad toilet not a main line plug-gage. He told me the service was free since he could not guarantee the line was the issue. His honesty was refreshing and I will call this company again for issues because of his honesty..You do not see this kind of honesty anywhere anymore, …. Incredible.

Great expertise! And service.
Will call again.
Even they knew per plumber assistant Enrique how to disassemble a dishwasher refusing to evacuate it's space to make room for new one....bit by bit and piece by piece saving me to remove tiles ( I had no replacements) and there it is! Room for new one to move in.
Enrique needs a raise! Thank you !

Had a pleasant experience with Geovanni of Team Rooter Venture Inc. of Simi Valley.

We worked with this company a couple of years ago and called them first when we needed additional plumbing help. Team Rooter is a reputable company that has reasonable prices and guarantees their work. Our past plumber from them was no longer with their company but who they sent this time (Geovanni) was even better. He is punctual, polite, efficient, and very professional. You could tell he respected our home. Geovanni communicated very well and set expectations early on.

Geovanni was able to change our water heater by himself. It was way over its life expectancy and time to go. Unfortunately, the old water heater drain was so blocked up with sediments (uhhh, we were not quite on top of our maintenance) that all of the water did not drain out even when Geovanni used his pump. I was impressed that he was able to carry it partially full of water over the safety bollard in our garage. At water heater installation, Geovanni did wonderful work re-piping the plastic drainage pipe and copper pressure release pipes. He did a better job than the original home builders who installed the first water heater. Geovanni's lines were cleaner, angles were better, and just more out of the way, without compromising access.

Our other plumbing problem child (clogged drain) became more of an issue than expected. Geovanni used a camera to show us where the standing water was in our pipes and was able to figure out a solution. Basically, the home builders had pipes full of multiple turns and sharp angles in the walls instead of straight down. The poor drainage design and corrosion over time led to complete blockage. Thankfully, Geovanni (with the help of some of his Team Rooter co-workers) was able to pinpoint the problem areas, fix the improper pipe slope, and jet the main drain. Geovanni does work very cleanly. His drywall work was impressive. Geovanni was able to explain why there were draining problems and also how to prevent future ones (maintenance again).

Overall, it took a couple of days but we feel great about the work done at our house. After watching Geovanni fix everything, you can tell he takes pride in his work and knows what he is doing. We definitely would recommend Team Rooter to anyone in the Ventura county. They are honest, hard working, and available 24/7.

If you do call... request our favorite plumber Geovanni Penate.

Nick is extremely responsive and dependable. We had a blockage in a 40 year old cast iron pipe from the kitchen sink. He spent time cleaning it up and inspected the pipe with a camera all the way down. He didn't try to oversell us and charged a very reasonable amount for the work. Nice guy and great work!

Nick is great. super responsive, fast in both showing up and fixing the issue. His work has stood the test of time and so we are very happy to have him come back for any issues. His prices are very reasonable and he has given us great advice to keep cost down and prevent future issues from arising. Overall highly recommend Nick at Simi Valley emergency Plumbing.

I’ve used Nick more times than I could count, he shows up usually within hours if not the next day for nonemergencies, he’s efficient kind does gorgeous work and he’s the only Plumber that I trust!

Nick is awesome. I had a clogged drain line and he came out on a Sunday and cleared it out real quick. He noticed some issues a previous plumber had done and I’ll be calling him to come out and make those changes so they are correct.

This is the second time I've used Simi Valley Emergency Plumbing.
Nick is wonderful. Fast, friendly, and reasonable.

Nick was great and very helpful. We had a broken kitchen drain and some backed up flow through our drains. The communication was great, honest pricing, and the job was faster than expected. Will be using them again.

Fast, professional and reasonably priced. We will definitely use Simi Valley Emergency Plumbing again.

Nick was amazing! So helpful and really helped me calm down after all I had been through with my plumbing mess! Steered me in the right direction. Very kind and supportive.

Can't thank Nick enough for coming out and clearing out kitchen sink. We initially had another plumber come out who quoted us $2500 to diagnose the issue. Nick completed an assessment and within an hour was able to clear our drains. We appreciated that he wasn't trying to upsell any unnecessary work and that we had the same goal in mind, which was to have a functioning sink again. Thanks Nick!

Nick the owner is very honest and easy to make an appointment with. He always gives a quote in an invoice and then a final receipt for your records. Nick came on a Sunday for our mobile home water heater and was able to change it out even thou it was not. Common size! He uses great lasting materials on his jobs. He did not charge me an emergency fee nor a weekend fee.
Happy customers 🤩🤩🤩

The service was amazing!! We had a broken handle in one of our job sites and they arrived within an hour.
Thank you for the amazing service!

Nick shows up in the time frame he gave us. He was again extremely considerate and personable. Nick listens to what the customer has to say about the plumbing issue, then quickly determines the right course of action. He uses great equipment, is thorough, and gets the job done well, without a lot of intrusion.
We love that he’s thoughtful enough to explain things, so that we know what’s going on with the plumbing he’s fixing. After his first time here, we felt we could trust him, so this second call was a no-brainer. We’ll be calling Nick from now on.

Arrived on time , professional, no gimmicks. In and out within 1 hour . 5 stars

He was great! Knowledgeable, and quick. Our sink was fixed in minutes.

What a speedy and smooth transaction. Nick is a professional. We needed a toilet replaced. Nick picked up my first phone call immediately and answered all my questions prior to making a decision. He communicated and confirmed our appointment for installation and informed me of the cost upfront. He removed our old toilet and installed our new one within an hour and left the area spotless. I will definitely be calling on this company again for my plumbing needs.
