Worked with Ribbs Plumbing on replacing toilet and for sewer inspection. While I had the appointment scheduled, We had a water leak. David from Ribbs plumbing promptly assigned Chris and CJ to my case and both Cris and CJ handled the issue professionally. They removed the heater and fixed the leak inside the wall. They also connected me with a restoration company to help manage the leak impact. Later for re-installing the heater they sent out Tim so that we could have hot water. Overall, I am very pleased with my experience with Ribbs and definitely will work with them on future projects. read more

No nonsense, No drama guys. John gave me an extremely reasonable quote over the phone! Chris and Cj were prompt, replaced the garbage disposal. These guys are awesome. My first go to company from now on. Thanks gentlemen. read more

The sink we had was leaking and not in very good condition. They were able to come by that Monday to take a look and inspect it. Once we knew the issue and the owners were ok with the quote we received, they came back and got the job done. The new sink looks and works so much better than what we had. The price worked well with our budget and the quality of the work they did was outstanding. Thanks again guys! read more

Tim from Ribbs Plumbing is very knowledgeable and responsive to questions. He replaced the faucet for our tenant which fixed the low water pressure and hot water issue. He can troubleshoot low water pressure and water heater issue which is why I hired Ribbs plumbing to do the job and he did great. I will definitely in keep them in mind for our future plumbing needs. read more

Ribbs Plumbing is the BEST! We have an old claw type bathtub that was not draining at all. Ribbs sent Tim to our rescue! He thought snaking the drain would due the trick and it did! Cost was nominal well worth it! He left the bathroom clean and tidy. Great guy! read more

Ribbs Plumbing offers high quality work and results. They have done a number of things for us: indoor plumbing, drains, sinks, disposals, toilet, water heater. A big one was a gas line issue to a pool heater. They have solved problems and brought to our attention more things than other companies. Good guarantees on work and prices are fair. Really glad to have found Ribbs Plumbing. read more

It was great service. highly recommend. Job was completed on time with great results. Thamk you so much Chris! read more

Tim was and is amazing. A little complex of the situation. Tim, out of 3 plumbers, is the first to get it right and get this. He had to remove nothing to order the parts. He also got them 10x faster than the last guy who had the wrong parts. Highly recommend Also he followed up to see how the shower worked. Incredible. Use them read more

Chris and CJ did a great job replacing our water heater! They were professional and easy to work with!

Follow up to my post of Feb 2 2026 - I opted for a new toilet. Tim kept me updated as to the arrival of the new toilet. A few days later upon receipt of the toilet Tim set up a time to install same. Tim and CJ were, as always, prompt and efficient ... read more

Tim from Ribbs Plumbing came out due to the drain pipe in the wall from my washing machine backing up into the laundry room. He was able to clear the line and run water down the pipe to ensure the blockage was gone. I called for service in the morning and Tim was there the same day around noon. These guys are quick, efficient, professional, and just really nice guys. I've used them a couple times before and I won't use any other plumbing service. I HIGHLY recommend Ribbs Plumbing. ​​ read more

Got a replacement water heater installed within the same day I called. Thanks Chris and team!

David & his crew did a great job for us. We requested a sewer lateral, which turned into a bigger job as it was time to replace the sewer main. They handled that smoothly and professionally and were thorough in identifying, evaluating and handling other small issues in the home, including a surprise leak, and giving thorough advice in general. Highly recommend and we'll certainly be going back to Ribbs for our future plumbing needs. We originally found them via recommendation and followed up reading reviews. Our experience with them completely corroborated every good thing we had heard. Thanks, guys!! read more

Great service! The team did a great job inspecting the premises for plumbing related defects and did a great job explaining their observations to me on site. read more

Had my water heater replaced, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. David provided outstanding customer service -- professional, knowledgeable, patient, and experienced. Everything was done efficiently and with great attention to detail. Highly recommend! read more

Tim showed up right on time, diagnosed the issue and did a great job unclogging the drain. Pain free.

Very prompt response on initial request and scheduling of service. The repairing team, Chris and assistant, were professional, thorough, and friendly. They finished everything in about half an hour, impressive and excellent! read more

We noticed that a puddle was forming under the water hose of our front yard. We had a 2nd Bday party planned within a week and were concerned. We called Ribbs Plumbing and spoke with David. He came out to look at the leak. He pointed out we have galvanized pipe and it was corroded. It was flaking off and eventually would break. We did not want to chance it happening at the party, or after hours creating a bigger expense. He had the city come out and spray areas where existing pipes were within the hour. We got three quotes and David was able to lower his price to beat competitors. They got to work the next day (Wednesday) our party was Saturday and before they could fill holes and complete, a inspection from the city was needed. We had appt scheduled Tuesday. Being bummed out cause now a huge hole was on our yard and sidewalk. David said if someone cancels he will get them to come out before party. Friday morning David called and said someone cancelled are we interested. Excited, we said yes. He had the inspection done and the holes were fixed same day. Needless to say, we had the party with no messy yard or holes. Very grateful! Everything was done in a timely matter and all the workers were very pleasant. I highly recommend Ribbs Plumbing Services. read more

See all

David and his team from Ribbs Plumbing fixed a gas leak at the meter. They were quick to respond, had a tech at my house within 2 hrs, reviewed the work needed, provided a very competitive quote, completed the work in half a day! The team were all very nice and professional. I highly recommended Ribbs Plumbing!! read more

I called to have a drip on my Roman Tub fixed. I was charged $149 for a diagnostic visit then another $149 for a return visit to install cartridges. After paying Ribbs Plumbing $677.50 David Nathan has been unable to stop the drip from the faucet. I am terribly disapointed with the service I received from Ribbs Plumbing and will probably never call them again. Next time I will call Mike Counsel plumbing he knows how to fix plumbing problems. read more

Ribbs Plumbing installed a new water softener for me. The quality of their work was excellent. The total cost for the job was very reasonable. Should the need arise I will definitely use them again and I will recommend them to friends and family. read more

Chris and CJ were on time, professional, knowledgeable, and did a great job replacing my garbage disposal, installing a new showerhead, and fixing toilet float valves. read more

I've used this plumbing company on two different occasions--first, almost a year ago, when my hot water tank burst and flooded my garage, and second, just last week to replace two valve hookups for a new washing machine. I was made aware of the need to replace the valves by the installation team just hours before the appliance was scheduled for delivery. I called Ribbs Plumbing Services and they had Tim at my house in 20 minutes. He completed the job swiftly and perfectly! I could not be more pleased with this company for the quality of their work, including their attention to detail, professionalism, and their conspicuous show of sincere respect--office staff and plumbers, alike. Moreover, their prices seemed more than fair, without looking to add charges or make unnecessary recommendations. Tim even fixed a stuck bathroom sink-stopper for me in about 3 minutes, without charge. They are very good! read more

Our kitchen faucet literally broke. It was hanging into the sink. We called RIBBS Plumbing, which we had used before for a plumbing problem. We specifically requested Tim Vu who had done a previous job at our house and had done an excellent job. We were able to schedule an early morning appointment for the next day. Tim Vu diagnosed the problem, we purchased a new faucet and he installed it immediately. Tim did a professional job and we are very happy with his work. read more

I called Ribbs Plumbing at 6:30 pm because of water leak in my bathroom which had also leaked into the unit below. Chris came out at 8 pm and diagnosed the problem and turned off the water to prevent further issues. While he was there, I also asked him to check the kitchen sink because I thought there might be a leak there as well. Chris was very thorough in diagnosing the problems and communicating them to me. The toilet needed to be replaced, the kitchen faucet, the garbage disposal and the bathroom faucet. He sent me photos before along with the estimate for the work to completed and he sent me photos after the work was completed, All the work took place the next day by Chris and Rudi. They were amazing and very thorough and cleaned up after they had finished all their work! Pricing is very fair. I highly recommend Riggs Plumbing read more

This is the second repair and project we've done through RPS. For both repairs, the RPS team arrives on time, keeps in contact before and during the work and are professional. They help you understand everything that is being done and why, suggest alternatives, risks and priorities. We are very happy with the quality and value of the work. RPS has become our preferred contractor for all things plumbing by earning our trust. read more

Made a call for someone to come out and unclog the pipe in my laundry room. The technician that came out was very knowledgeable and professional. I have used this company multiple times. I highly recommend them. Thank you CC read more

Horrible experience - very dishonest business practices. I had a main line blockage and called their technician over. The technician came on time and seemed interested in solving the problem. But as soon as he took a look at the clean-out, he said he would need to replace the clean-out in my house to clear the blockage because the clean-out was "too narrow" for the cable machine to go in. He gave me a quote for 1700$ and half-a-day of work for a minor block!! I called another friend of mine who was a plumber and he used a smaller cable machine to clear the block in 5 minutes and charged me 300$. Needless to say, I will be staying away from RPS in the future. read more

Amazing Service and Great Prices! I asked to help with a broken bathtub valve and they were here the next day. David and Rudy were solid professionals and were amazingly fast. I would recommend these pros to anyone needing a home plumbing emergency! read more

I called in Ribbs about some non-urgent plumbing needs I had. They were able to work within my work schedule, showing up on time as promised. The work performed was excellent, their pricing was fair and in line with their estimate, and they left the site cleaner than they found it. Highly recommended! read more

Tim was the technician that came out two days to help us resolve an issue. He was communicative and patient. He answered all of our concerns and questions. Very appreciative of his honesty and quality of work. Definitely recommend Tim to anyone! read more

I had a major issue with tree roots obstruction. Tim came out, diagnosed and fixed the problem quickly. It was a major issue, required digging up my front yard etc. read more

We are extremely satisfied with the work provided by Tim Vu and his crew Angel and David at RPS. When our sewer backed up, an inspection by RPS hours later revealed mud inside our sewer line. Our home had its sewer line redone by the previous owner less than 10 years ago, but it failed at a joint due to bad workmanship. Muddy soil from recent rain was clogging the line. We opted for a full replacement. The previous job was done without permits and without a property line cleanout -- and the replacement would be with permits, with a property line cleanout, and would fix all of the previous line's grading issues. The cost was very reasonable for the amount of work needed. We were quoted a similar amount by another plumber who would not have pulled permits. RPS completed this major project on time and on budget. They even were extra careful to work around our landscaping by relocating small plants, using care excavating around trees, and using pipe burst as much as possible to avoid digging up the entire line. The pipe burst occurred during a massive rain storm and they stayed late into the evening to have everything ready for an early city inspection the next morning. The team restored our landscaping and took care to ensure the backfill was properly compacted. After the work was complete, Tim was super helpful in providing statements required by our insurance company to have the work reimbursed. This was in addition to extremely detailed notes and photographs (over 40 pages including photos) of the work in progress Tim and his team already provided. We are especially thankful for all of these details because it clearly demonstrated evidence of a covered loss. We would have been unable to access thousands of dollars of insurance benefits if these detailed photographs were not provided. We are about to begin more work on our property and I am very glad to be extending a properly graded and installed system which was inspected by the city with proper permits. read more

I came to know RPS from another yelp review. Although they charge for coming out I think it's well worth it. My bathtub water stopper is not working, stuck there, Tim was able to swap out the pipes from crawlspace. The price is very reasonable. The house is really old and the cast-iron pipes are in really bad shape. Over the years every plumber that looked at this suggested to swap all pipes in crawlspace, only Tim found out that one bathroom has newer pipes and only need to swap out partial, which cut down cost significantly. Tim finished the job in two days and send me pictures, great work! read more

Ribbs Plumbing & Sewer - Plumbing Near Me - San Jose, California

This is the third time I've used Ribbs. They are very good about showing up when they say they will show up. China was very pleasant to deal with over the phone and she even called me 30 minutes before the technician showed up in order to let me know he was on his way. They had to repair the same spot that they looked at last year. They had pictures and records of the work they did last year. Because of that, Dave was able to show how that their earlier repair was solid but the new leak was coming from somewhere else. Dave fixed my issue and I would definitely would call RPS again for all of my plumbing issues. read more

Not sure where to start with RPS, they did a fabulous job at repairing what I needed! My home is an older home and needed a sewer cleanout to comply with the city code. So Dave N. and another gentlemen came out to inspect my home and sure enough they found out that I needed a sewer cleanout installed on the property since there wasn't one present. So I setup an appointment to have that installed and the very next day David M. came out and installed my new sewer cleanout. In less than 48 hours they came out to my home, made an inspection, setup an appointment, came back and completed the work to be done. RPS was quick, easy to talk to, very friendly, and were honest people. I would absolutely go back to them and recommend them for any other future plumbing services. read more

Very efficient and quick service. Also, competitive cost. I'd highly recommend them to others.

Easy scheduling, helped with turn key solution including material, parts and service with guidance on longevity of products. Always happy with the work they do have never had any issues with any of the 5 different services they provided. read more

Realize great service with a friendly staff. Prices were reasonable and they were honest with me every step of the way.

We used RPS a couple time so far. The first time we needed some work done under our kitchen sink before we could have our new dishwasher installed. Tim came out and took great care of us; he was extremely thorough and personable during the process. We enjoyed him so much, we personally requested him when we needed to repair one of our bathroom faucets. Highly recommend RPS and would strongly suggest to request Tim. You won't be disappointed. read more
