Our experience was terrific. We had a medium sized job: replace the 90 year old iron sewer connection out rom back of home, down the driveway and out to the property line, and add a BBQ island (sink, garbage disposal, gas appliances) in the back yard. All together about 150' of sewer plus venting for the BBQ island, and water, gas to the BBQ. All work was done with permits. The quote included connection to the sewer under the home (not just at the exterior foundation where other quotes specified). Communication was excellent. They arrived when they said they would. Both the principals and the workers are very good people. Work went quickly when not waiting on inspections (schedule inspections early!). I judge a firm by how they handle problems. In this case, the rough plumbing inspector gave the OK for a certain island venting technique. The different final inspector said it must be changed, and Gomez plumbing just fixed it promptly, all within the original quote. Of course we waited for a second final inspection before getting the project closed (schedule early!) Gomez is now our go-to plumber.

Expert Drain Camera Inspection in San Jose And Surrounding Areas, CA
Drain camera inspection lets Gomez Sewer and Drain see exactly what is happening inside your pipes before any repair work begins. A flexible rod with a camera attached is fed into your drain or sewer line. The live video feed shows cracks, root intrusion, blockages, pipe bellies, and joint separation in real time. Many homes across San Jose, Campbell, and Los Gatos were built with clay or cast iron sewer lines. These older pipe materials are common in Santa Clara County's pre-1980s housing stock, and they are prone to joint separation, root intrusion, and cracking from soil movement and seismic activity. A camera inspection pinpoints the exact location and cause of the problem. That means no guesswork, no unnecessary digging, and a clear picture of what your pipes actually need. Whether you are dealing with a recurring clog, a slow drain across multiple fixtures, or you are buying or selling a home, a drain camera inspection gives you the facts. Call Gomez Sewer and Drain to schedule yours.
