Long overdue review for John's Plumbing and Drain Services!…read more
I meant to write this review back in July, but I'm finally getting the chance because John and his team absolutely deserve the recognition. We originally found John's Plumbing and Drain Services through Yelp, and after double-checking their reviews on Google, we decided to give them a call. I'm very glad we did!
From beginning to end, everyone was responsive, patient, attentive, professional, and hardworking. John, the owner, Anna, the office manager, and Aric, one of their main technicians, each took the time to assess our water heater situation, answer our questions, provide quotes, and explain their recommendations without making us feel pressured.
They let us know that, in addition to replacing our water heater, our home needed a new pressure regulator since ours was over 30 years old. They also explained that we were missing an expansion tank and discussed adding a sediment trap for the new water heater. They clearly explained what was necessary and what was optional and gave us very reasonable and affordable pricing compared with other plumbing companies in our area.
Aric came first thing in the morning to drain our old water heater and also started work on replacing our old pressure regulator. He was very fast, diligent, and professional. Anna was also wonderful throughout the entire process. She contacted me every step of the way. She was extremely patient and helpful with our requests and even provided us with a handwritten, itemized receipt. Having such an attentive and hands-on office manager made the whole experience that much easier.
John went above and beyond for us. Our old water heater was still covered under the manufacturer's warranty, and he personally went with us to Home Depot to help transport and exchange the old water heater for the replacement. That level of service and willingness to help really stood out to us. I also have to say their cost for this round trip service was more affordable. The other plumbing company was charging us just for 1 way $150. Which was way too expensive. John's Plumbing & Drain Services charged us round trip $160 which was way more reasonable pricing.
John then completed the installation of the new water heater, added the expansion tank and sediment trap, and did a very clean and professional job making sure the water heater was properly secured for earthquake safety. After the installation, John also informed my mom that they provide a warranty on their services, which gave us even more peace of mind.
My dad normally doesn't like others to do repairs for him but my mom and i told him he's 82 now he needs to rest & let us hire a professional. Since we know my dad is very particular about how things are done. When my dad checked the water heater for apt #1. My dad even gave John and Aric two thumbs up and had nothing but positive things to say about the quality of their work -- and that says a lot!
It's hard to find a company where you feel taken care of by everyone, from the owner of the company, to the office manager & to the technicians. John's Plumbing and Drain Services is definitely one of the best plumbing companies in our area. They are responsive, patient, fast, diligent, fairly priced, and genuinely care about doing the job right.
Thank you John, Anna, and Aric for taking such great care of us and for going above and beyond. We truly appreciate all of your help and highly recommend John's Plumbing and Drain Services! They will now be our go to plumbing services.
