Why San Francisco Trusts Five Star Plumbing & Rooter
Five Star Plumbing & Rooter was built on a simple idea: every customer deserves honest service, a clear explanation of what the work entails, and a price they agreed to before anyone picks up a wrench. That philosophy starts with our flat-rate pricing model. You’ll know the exact cost of your job upfront – no hourly billing, no emergency premiums, and no surprise charges after the fact.
When you call us in the middle of the night for a burst pipe or a backed-up sewer, you pay the same rate you’d pay on a regular Tuesday afternoon. We believe that emergencies are stressful enough without adding financial uncertainty on top of them.
We’re also one of the few plumbing companies in San Francisco that manages every phase of a project in-house.
