The honest second opinion
Quoted a price that felt wrong? Call before you sign.
Big plumbing outfits pay commissions, so their guys get paid to sell you the expensive fix. Mickey tells you what's actually wrong, what it costs, and what you can skip. People keep his number for decades because of it.
Another plumber said
“We'll have to break up the concrete slab.”
What Mickey did
Mickey found a better way in. No jackhammer, no torn-up floor.

Same family. Same phone number. Since 1953.
One Hour Plumbing Service started when Eisenhower was president, and it's still run by the same family today. Mickey learned the trade from his dad, working under houses all over southeast LA County. There's no call center. When you call, you get the owner.
