Santa Monica Plumbers & 24/7 Emergency Rooter Service

Santa Monica packs beach bungalows, apartment buildings, North of Montana homes and busy restaurant streets into about eight square miles. Flood Brothers Plumbing was founded by third-generation plumber Giovanni Longo as a one-stop shop for the hard sewer and drain problems other plumbers would not take on, and it grew into a 24/7 emergency plumbing and water damage team. We are still family-owned and operated, and we treat every customer as a family, not a job ticket. We serve the whole city from our Hollywood office and our Studio City headquarters.

Many Santa Monica homes and buildings date from the 1920s through the 1960s, so cast iron drains, galvanized supply lines and clay sewer laterals are common, especially in Ocean Park, Sunset Park and the streets around Pico. North of Montana, larger homes have mature trees close to the sewer line. Apartment and condo buildings share drain stacks where one clog can affect several units, and the kitchens on Main Street, Montana Avenue and around the Third Street Promenade need drains that keep up with a full service. We serve the 90401, 90402, 90403, 90404 and 90405 ZIP codes.

Plumbing services for Santa Monica homes and businesses

What Santa Monica residents, owners and businesses call us for:

• 24/7 emergency plumbing – burst pipes, overflowing fixtures, sewage backups and valves that will not close, any hour.
• Leak and slab leak detection – pinpointing hidden leaks in walls, floors and slabs before anything is opened. Leak inspections are free.
• Rooter and sewer service – cable snaking for everyday blockages, hydro jetting when roots are packed tight, and a sewer camera inspection so you can see the cause on screen. If the pipe itself has failed, we offer one-day trenchless sewer replacement instead of trenching the whole yard.
• Drain cleaning – kitchen, bath, laundry and floor drains cleared so they flow freely again.
• Water damage restoration – water extraction, structural drying with air movers and dehumidifiers, and moisture readings until walls and subfloors are truly dry. We also handle odor treatment, tarps and board-ups, and we work with your insurance company directly.
• Re-pipes – copper or PEX, with an honest look at which suits your house and whether a re-pipe is really needed. Re-pipe quotes are free.
• Water heaters and tankless – gas, electric and tankless units; we look at your setup and recommend what fits your home and budget.
• Shutoff valves and sewer cleanouts – replacing stuck or leaking shutoffs and adding cleanouts so sewer lines can be serviced easily.
• Gas lines – repairs and new lines for appliances. If you smell gas, leave the home and call the gas company or 911 first.
• Commercial and restaurant plumbing – drains, water heaters, leaks and fixtures for offices, shops and restaurant kitchens.

Why Santa Monica homeowners call Flood Brothers

In shared buildings, a plumbing problem rarely stays in one unit. We find the source, stop it and, with your OK, keep your neighbors, HOA or property manager informed, so everyone knows what happened and what it needs.

When you call, a live person answers 24/7 and asks the right questions first: where the water is coming from, whether you can reach the shutoff, and who else in the home is affected. Same-day service is guaranteed, including nights, weekends and holidays.

Think of it as white-glove concierge emergency response: one call, a live person who stays with you, a technician who protects your floors, and a clear plan before anything starts. We have been in business for more than 15 years, and every job is backed by our 100% satisfaction guarantee.

Homeowners rate us about 4.8 stars from 1,000+ Google reviews. Our Hollywood office is at 7119 W. Sunset Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90046, and our headquarters is in Studio City.

Frequently asked questions

Our Ocean Park bungalow has rusty water in the morning. Is that the pipes?
Rusty or discolored water, especially first thing in the morning, often points to aging galvanized supply lines. We check the pipes and the water heater and tell you honestly whether repairs or a re-pipe make more sense.

We hear water running in our apartment when nothing is on. What could it be?
It could be a running toilet, a leaking valve or a hidden leak in a wall or under the floor. We test and locate the leak first, then explain the repair before any work begins.

Can you work on our restaurant’s plumbing without shutting us down?
We know a closed kitchen costs money. We handle commercial and restaurant plumbing, from clogged kitchen drains to water heaters, and we will plan timing with you so the work disrupts service as little as possible.

Can I just text you a photo of the problem?
Yes. 855-840-7800 accepts texts. Send a photo and a short description of what is happening, and a live person will help you figure out the next step.

Can you come out today?
Yes. A live person answers 24/7 and same-day service is guaranteed, including nights, weekends and holidays.

A pipe burst and the floors are soaked. Will you deal with our insurance company?
Yes, we work with your insurance company directly. Snap a few photos before anything is moved, then call or text us. We stop the leak, extract the water and dry things out, and we handle odor treatment, tarps and board-ups when the damage calls for it.
