The Plumbing Company in Los Angeles That Shows Up, Solves the Problem, and Stands Behind the Work
There are a lot of plumbing companies in Los Angeles. What makes the difference when you are standing in front of a water heater that stopped working at 8 PM on a Thursday, or a main drain that backed up the morning of a dinner party, is not which company has the flashiest ad. It is which one picks up the phone, shows up when they say they will, tells you the real price before touching anything, and actually fixes the problem.
We are a family-owned plumbing contractor, not a franchise or a call center. When you call us, you are talking to the people who will actually show up at your door.
Meet Steve Hutkin, Founder and Licensed Plumbing Contractor
Steve Hutkin has been working as a licensed plumber in the Los Angeles area since 1995. Over more than three decades in the trade, he has worked in thousands of homes across the region. He knows the difference because he has been doing this work in this specific area for his entire career.
In 2020, Steve founded Advantage Plumbing & Rooter to build a company around the way he had always believed plumbing work should be done. He holds a California C-36 Plumbing Contractor license, issued by the California Contractors State License Board, and brings over 30 years of hands-on diagnostic and repair experience to every job his team takes.
The technicians and plumbers who work with Steve have been vetted, trained, and operate by the same standards he has held himself to throughout his career. When you call Advantage Plumbing & Rooter, a licensed and trusted plumbing company in Los Angeles, you get the benefit of that experience on every service call.
Plumbing Services We Offer Across Greater Los Angeles, CA
As a full-service licensed plumbing company in Los Angeles, we handle the complete range of residential plumbing for homeowners and light commercial plumbing for property managers and business owners.

Sewer repair and trenchless replacement
We repair damaged sewer lines, clear root intrusion, and replace collapsed pipes using trenchless methods when the pipe condition and access allow. We camera main lines before recommending repair or replacement.
Water heater repair and installation
We repair and replace tank water heaters and install tankless systems from different brands. We handle permits and complete most standard tank replacements the same day. Learn more about water heater repair and installation.
Gas line repair & installation
We repair gas leaks, replace damaged gas lines, and install lines for remodels, outdoor appliances, barbecues, and fire pits. All gas work is pressure-tested before completion. If you smell gas, leave the building first, call SoCalGas, then call us.
Leak Detection and Slab Leak Repair
We use electronic leak detection to locate leaks inside walls, under floors, and beneath concrete slabs with minimal demolition. Once located, we repair the affected section or determine if repiping makes more sense.
Additional services
We also provide hydro-jetting, garbage disposal and shower valve repair, water pressure regulator service, earthquake shut-off valve installation, emergency shut-off devices, repiping, kitchen and bath remodeling, and new construction plumbing.
