Today was my second appointment with John the Plumber. I had 2 toilets installed. I was extremely fortunate that Vaughn was able to arrive a little earlier than the 3 hour window I was given. He was amazing and had the work done in a few hours. Very professional and personable! It was very evident he has pride in his work! I highly recommend this company and highly recommend Vaughn. Also thanks to all office staff I communicated with in setting up all my previous appointments.Posted on Google![]()

I had a great experience with Aaron from John the Plumber. He repaired the leak on my home salon shampoo sink quickly and cleanly, and took the time to walk me through the problem and explain his approach so I understood the work being done. It’s rare to find that level of transparency and quality service. Will definitely call Aaron again!Posted on Google![]()

Steve was early in my time slot of 1-4pm which was much appreciated. He addressed the issue quickly and was professional, polite and informative. He also informed me of additional info about the water heater that he noticed while completing a job for the laundry sink which was incredibly helpful.
