Definitely 5-star plumber n this area. My Kenmore economiser 6 losts pilot from time to time after 11 years. There is intermittent hot water. After contacting 2 plumbers, one was bed sick and the other never responded, I left a text message for midas plumbing around 11pm. John called around 2pm in the afternoon and showed up 30 minutes later and replaced the thermocouple within 30 minutes. John is very professional and reasonable in fee. I highly recommend him. read more

Midas has done jobs for my mom's house & mine. Always gets the job done quickly & at a fair price. They get a bit busy though but when you do a good job at a good price what do you expect?? read more

Fast and professional. John arrived on time, had the part ready, and quickly fixed my water leak at a resonable price. What's great about this guy is that he's honest and recommend the best way to go about getting other things fixed. Highly recommended :) Should have called him sooner. Nice guy. read more

Wow, very impressed, showed up in a half hour when I had a new dishwasher installed and the hot water angle stop was stripped and it couldn't be hooked up. Checked out the pipe which was old and warned me it might break loose if he replaced it but that was the first option. Explained what he'd have to do if it did break. Luckily that didn't happen but appreciated the warning. Replaced the valve quickly and everything worked great, even took a look a slow sink upstairs and cleaned out the hard water deposits while he was here. Nice guy, very much recommend his service. read more

this morning, my husband found out the two toilets and one bathroom got clogged. I checked yelp and called some numbers. I finally decided to have John to fix the problem for us. He came and fix the problem, charged the fee we agreed on the phone, and cleaned up afterwards. He also gave us his honest opinion. I would like to recommend John to other people who need help. read more

Had a pipe break in our front yard (underground) on July 30. I called a local, well known plumbing company twice and each time was told the person I needed to speak with was not at her desk. I looked up plumbing services on Yelp, found Midas Plumbing and read that they had excellent reviews. I called and someone was out in less than 45 minutes. The tech finished the repair job in about 3 hours. Very good experience with Midas Plumbing. read more

Call him yesterday, and have my kitchen faucet replaced today. He was on time for the appointment, very friendly with my endless questions regarding other projects. Will definitely use him again. read more

Amazing. We've used them for many small projects and they just finished a huge job for us. Professional, reliable, excellent quality of work. Would give them more than five stars if I could. read more

John answered my call and fixed my plumbing problem within hours and on a holiday no less! And his price was extremely reasonable. Thank you for the great fast service! read more

Though John could not help with my water heater issue, he is nice enough to give me guidance to get the problem fixed. Didnt try to take advantage of my problem for his opportunity to make money as some others do. Thanks. read more

John came to fix the plumbing issue I had on the same day that I called him. Open on Saturday is a plus. Did a great job. Reasonably priced too. Fixed a blockage in one sink very quickly. read more

John has fixed a couple of problems for me over the years. I am satisfied with his work as he provides quick and affordable plumbing services. I just had him install new pipes under my badly leaking kitchen sink. He came quickly and went to work, and now I don't have to worry about further water damage. read more

John replaced all my faucets. He gave a better price than another plumber on yelp. He was mature, polite and cheerful. His work was perfect, and he was tidy and left everything clean and perfect. Glad to find a plumber for future needs! read more

I called Midas on a Sunday. John came over in the afternoon as scheduled. We discussed the works needed, and I was quoted a flat fee (plus parts) upfront. He was courteous the whole time, and took time to explain how some of the pipes used (by the previous house owner) was of the wrong part and can be corrected next time. John had to run to the store to buy a stem for my leaking faucet, there was no extra charge. I'm keeping his card and will definitely call him next time I need a plumber and recommend him to my friends. read more

I have lived in San Jose for over thirty years. In that time, I have used the services of many plumbers. None of them compare to John. He is trustworthy, honest and expert. He tells you exactly what is wrong and how he will repair it. I like the way in which he regarded my intelligence and that he did not condescend because I am a woman. I know that I have stopped looking for a new plumber. I have finally hit the jackpot. read more

John is super friendly and does a great job at a great price. I couldn't ask for better. He will be my go-to guy from now on.

Our kitchen faucet sprouted a big leak from the pull down spray part and we didn't have a plumber contact. Decided to check Yelp reviews and saw all the great reviews for Midas Plumbing. I immediately called and John answered and we set up an appointment for the next morning. I cannot say enough good things about my experience with John at Midas Plumbing! He is knowledgeable, professional, respectful, a very kind man who had my new faucet installed in no time and I was very happy with the cost! He then cleaned up his work area and was very gracious and polite. I will definitely call Midas for any future plumbing work - only wish there were more like him in other repair categories. Thank you John for an outstanding response & repair experience! read more

I had a shower backing up which I suspected meant the sewer main was probably backed up. Called Midas after finding them on yelp. They quoted a price and thought that might be a bit high so I shopped around. Went with another plumber due to an ad for much less. After the other guys came and tried to snake for only 15 min, they started to quote me for installing a new cleanout($$) since they said they couldn't get snake around the pipe bends from where they were trying. I sent those people away and tried more of my self help. The next day I called back Midas to see what they could do. After a little more effort than the other guys(~100 feet of snaking), my sewer main was cleared. Yay! Wrote James from Midas a check and was pleased with the service. I felt Midas tried to really solve the problem w/out trying to simply gouge me for money in my time of need. Will definitely keep Midas' number handy for my plumbing needs. read more

The main water valve of my rental property started spraying water due to a cracked nut. The plumber I usually use was on a job in another city. I checked YELP and saw so many good reviews for John Hong that convinced me to call him. He came over 40 minutes later after finishing the job he was working on at the time. He decided to fix the valve by trying to replace the internal mechanism rather than replacing the valve. Replacing the whole valve was a big job due to limited space around it to work with. I was impressed by the effort he put forth to try to replace the internal parts. After these efforts failed and replacement of the entire valve became the only option, he did a high quality job fast. The entire job took less than 1/2 day and at a very reasonable price of $350. This is a fantastic company. I highly recommend them for your plumbing needs. read more

Needed kitchen drainage lines cleared. Called Midas, left voice mail message (on a Saturday) and was promptly called back and appointment time estimated. John arrived a few minutes earlier than promised, diagnosed and resolved the problem within 20-minutes time. Provided tips to us on how to mitigate future clogs in our system. His service and personal demeanor was top notch. He warrantied his work for 30-days!! Hello, who does that in the world of plumbing?? Price: reasonable. Fred B. San Jose read more

Found! A trustworthy plumber. I found John at Midas on Yelp and it did not steer me wrong. I had several old, loose faucets and other work that needed to be done. John fixed what he could and replaced what was necessary. I am happy with his recommendations, the quality of work, and fair prices. I have bounced around between different plumbing companies in the past and I am happy to say that I think I have found my "go to" professional for this service. read more

Sink got backed up pretty bad on a Saturday night. Tried to fix the problem myself but decided to call a professional and I am glad I did. Didn't think I was going to be able to get someone out on a Saturday night, but I found John on yelp and saw the excellent reviews. He arrived at my house in about 10 minutes. Within a few minutes he gave me a quote and then immediately got to work. He is polite, friendly, honest and works quickly. Within the hour he was able fix the problem and told us how to prevent the same problem in the future. John, I will be calling you in the future for any plumbing problems at my home. You earned my business! read more

We just remodeled and switched from a single kitchen sink to a double sink, we needed a new drain config. under the sink. We have a disposer and dishwasher so that needed to be taken into account with the config. We called Midas based on their reviews. The person I spoke to on the phone spoke a very poor English and had issues understanding what we wanted, but we scheduled a plumber to come out and give us a quote. He arrived on time and took a look, although language was once again an issue. He quoted us $285! For a few pieces of plastic and less than an hour of labor. We asked him how much it would be if he hooked up the dishwasher too, and suddenly it jumped to $450, for something my husband can do in about 10 min, it's just attaching a couple of hoses. While my husband and I talked it over, he went and got his tools and started getting ready to work, without us even saying if we would go with them, luckily I stopped him and told him we were going to get a few more quotes and we would call them back. It was a bit tricky to get him to leave, as if getting multiple quotes is a strange thing, having just remodeled, I know this to be the norm. Having finally gotten him to go, we called a few other plumbers and got some phone quotes, had Drain Masters come out, they were quick and professional and even with some extra parts we ended up needing our total only came out to $190. read more

I found Midas Plumbing on Yelp after waking up to find water backed up in my tub. I was in a bit of a panic. I called Midas Plumbing and John answered on the second ring. I explained the problem and he said he could be here within 45 minutes. John arrived promptly, surveyed the problem, and got right to work. He had to snake the main plumbing line and was able to resolve the problem in very short order. He was very friendly and courteous. I would definitely bring Midas Plumbing back for any plumbing needs that I have, and I'm glad to have Midas Plumbing and John on Yelp. read more

Great guy! He was very late so he gave me a discount. The work was done correctly and I'd use his services again in a heartbeat. But being a plumbing service I hope I don't have to use him too soon! read more

Wow! The gentleman who came from Midas Plumbing has it all. He was able to come out quickly, was on time and gave me a competitive price. He also cleaned up after himself and has good interpersonal skills on top of it all. My clogged shower and sink are fixed and he even gave me a 30 day guarantee. Thanks Yelp for helping me find an awesome plumber...this is the one I want to keep for future reference, not the other 6 that I've seen in the past! Midas Plumbing is a great business. read more

We have used Midas Plumbing multiple times now to clear clogged sink/shower/utility sink drains. Each time we have used him has been a pleasant experience. He has been quick to return our calls when trying to schedule an appointment and has called to let us know if he is running late. We found John to be extremely pleasant and reasonable. He has given us suggestions on how to prevent clogging in the future. read more

Perhaps if John himself came out to do the work, our toilet would function properly now. Instead he advised his employee to come out. Despite our subsequent to complaints to John himself, we are left with a dysfunctional toilet that does not flush sporadically. When it does, we often must keep the handle depressed for a long time before it works. John said this a "hard water issue"???!! Are you kidding me??? I will gladly delete this post and re-post a positive review if John were to reconsider his analysis and MAKE IT RIGHT (please!). read more

John was wonderful. He was knowledgeable, helpful, prompt, tidy, honest, and easy to talk with. He thoroughly explained the cause of our leak in terms we understood, and even told us about things to watch for, which I really appreciate. I felt completely comfortable with him. Midas Plumbing is now my first choice. I sure wish we had found him a long time ago. read more

I called John to work on the gate valve in my front yard in Sunnyvale. We set a date and time, he was right on time, and got the job done perfectly...problem fixed! The price was right, and he is friendly and professional to boot. I look forward to calling John for my future house issues that will inevitably arise! Highly recommended. read more

Recommended. John arrived on time, was friendly, knowledgable and easy to work with, and did the work quickly and neatly. Did I mention considerate? I've never had a plumber remove his shoes at the front door--but that was a very nice gesture. read more

Absolute best experience ever. Called at 6:30 AM, got an an immediate answer, and shows up at 8:00AM. By 5:00 same day our entire water main from the meter to the house was replaced, including a new trench, new Cu pipe, and replacement of sod and clean-up. Great price, great attitude, integrity, professionalism, and quality. read more

John, the owner of Midas Plumbing is ABSOLUTELY fantastic! After having an outrageous bid from another plumber, I called John. Even though he was totally booked for the day, he made time for me during his lunch hour. He immediately assessed the problem, "snaked" out the pipe when the other plumber said it couldn't be done, and had the issue resolved within an hour. If you need a plumber, use John. He is professional, friendly, knows what he is doing and reasonably priced. Five stars well deserved! read more

My house is 65 years old. We were getting up 4 times a year in the middle of the night with a clogged sewer line, DARN TREE ROOTS !! I had finally had it and called John for an estimate on replacing our old sewer line. When he came over, I told him we had standing water in our line. He sprang into action and snaked it 2 times. He got a big glob of roots out. He was so nice and tried to get me to wait until next time to have it replaced. Anyway, I did have him replace our sewer line. They had to dig 5 feet down and 36 feet across. They put everything in our front yard back the way it was, even our brick walkway. His father supervised and even helped the men. He was also very kind. I highly recommend them and would use them again. Hopefully I will never need them again!! read more

Looking for a good plumber, don't look any farther. John is incredible--professional, personable, gives great advice, will do The Home Depot/Lowes trip for you, gets the job done right and at totally reasonable prices. I've used him for a number of projects and can not recommend him enough! read more

John answered the phone right away after a few rings. Was here this afternoon to take care of my minor faucet leak. I would recommend him highly. He definitely knows what he's doing, came on time. Is a no-frills professional, who doesn't charge expensive prices. Gave me a reasonable quote, did the job in half an hour and gave me pointers on what to look for next time. I would definitely use him again! He's great! Professional, cordial, considerate, patient...even in this hot weather! read more

John was awesome! Not only did he do a great job solving our bathroom problems, he also gave us options to save money - like suggesting we buy some replacement items ourselves, and giving us the option to put off some fixes or do them now and save a second service call in the future. His schedule was also flexible enough to work around our other activities, and he was great about calling ahead to say exactly when he would arrive. He was also just a nice guy to have in the house - I enjoyed chatting with him while he worked! read more

After I saw great reviews for them, I had hired them in February, 2013 to fix a leaky main water pipe joint. The leak started happening again at the same spot so I called them over the weekend to report this. John called me right away and had James come and fix the leak in 2 days. read more

Great service, had a toilet flapper leak, John tried to replace the seal first to save cost unfortunately that didn't work but I appreciate the effort to save me some $. Replaced flapper, overflow tube and put new fill mechanism and leak is fixed now. Quick service and also appreciate he called me before coming out so I knew he was on his way. Highly recommend Midas plumbing. read more

John just replaced our kitchen sink. He was prompt, honest, reasonably priced and polite. And he cleaned up after his work.
