John did a great job and was very friendly. He replaced my shower cartridge which was leaking after only 3 years. Price wise, he was in line with other competition. read more

Before scheduling an appointment with John, I explained and sent a video of dripping faucet. John came and estimated $400 for a bathtub faucet cartridge change. I declined it, because it's too expensive then he demanded $150 trip charge. We settled on $100. He asked to zelle him right away. And 10 min later texted again for payment. So paid him $100 for 5 minutes visit Response to the comment: John, yes you said $400 for cartridge change while looking at the bathtub faucet. I asked if you could do some work (fix the backflow preventer or sprinkler valve), so the trip charge could go towards some work, but you refused it and DEMANDED $150. Also, I sent a detailed messages with photos about the issues before your trip. read more

Our shower valve broke, and we tried to repair it ourselves but the cartridge broke inside. Well found John on yelp and he answered us right away and assured us he can fix it tomorrow. He came promptly and fixed it with ease and answered all my questions and even had time to repair our other sinks. We highly recommend him and will use him again. Thank you Anh! read more

Good work but charges too much. Significantly higher prices than other companies in the area

Had to have our French drains cleaned out in the Champion Forest area and had a few companies quote us for it. We ended up going with Johnny for a few reasons. Reasonable pricing, fantastic job, sense of urgency, timely, and very informative on what he found as he ran a camera through the drains and showed me. Our drains were clogged by roots and he dug it out to clear a path for the drains. He went above and beyond in my book and I would definitely recommend Johnny to anyone needing his services. read more

Quality work and quickly responsive. The services are priced competitively. Skillful plumbing services with friendly staff. Highly recommend. read more

SJ Rooter is simply the best at his job, in addition to providing top notch customer service. One side of my yard was holding water and I needed the basins cleaned out - they hadn't been cleaned in 7 years. SJ not only provided me honest feedback but was very competitive with his pricing. Next time I need plumbing services, he's going to be my first and only call! read more

Had an issue with my kitchen sink pushing water up from the drain. After trying to deal with the issue myself to no avail, I finally gave in and tried to get quotes from Yelp. SJ was the first one to respond. I gave SJ a call and explained what was happening and we scheduled a time for him to come out. It wasn't one of those 'I'll be there between so and and so time' that you'd get from your typical big-name plumbers, but a fixed time so I wouldn't have to wait around at home. On top of that, he gave me an up-front price on what it would cost to fix the issue. Johnny arrived on time and listened to everything I was telling him: my issues, what I'd one, what was happening with my neighbor's plumbing, etc. He was patient and didn't try to rush out of there. Once he'd listened to everything that I had to say, he told me he was going to get working and take care of my issue. Long story short, he did a great job in fixing the problem; showed me what was causing it in the first place and told me what I can do to prevent this issue in the future. he even showed me how to properly use a plumber snake that I'd purchased when I was trying to fix the issue myself. I wouldn't hesitate to give Johnny a call the next time I have plumbing issues. read more

He did a good job! He was within an hour. He was very knowledgeable and you know he wants to help.

Arrived quickly, immediately diagnosed problem, replaced and welded new pipe in no time. Price was competitive and knowledgeable, fast service was more than I could've asked for. So grateful to have found someone to rely upon for any future jobs, big or small in my home or when those around me are looking for referrals in the area. There's nothing like having someone you trust in a time of need, and Johnny will bring a solution and a smile. read more

SJ Rooter & Plumbing is excellent! I reached out to Johnny yesterday after finding him here on Yelp and reading his excellent reviews. I sent him a message and he answered within minutes. We set up a time for him to come out this morning. He showed up on time and was able to find the exact location of our broken water pipe between the meter and the house. He gave me a very fair quote and got to work immediately. Within an hour and a half the issue was completely fixed. Johnny is a great guy and I will definitely be a return customer. Thanks again, Johnny! read more

Timely call out, timely completion of the job, pleasant and easy to interact with, punctual, reasonable pricing.

I've had some issues with my bathroom sink for awhile and it got to the point where I decided to pull the trigger and get it checked out. I am so glad I found Johnny because he was fantastic! He responded to my message almost immediately and was at my house just a few hours later. The price was great for the services he offered and he even cleaned out the secondary bathroom sink for free. Will definitely be reaching back out to Johnny for any other issues that arise! read more

Johnny from SJ Rooter & Plumber is a class act! He responded very quickly to our clogged kitchen drain and was able to get to our rental in just a few hours. I appreciated his honesty and fair approach when he was unable to unclog the drain because it was beyond 60 feet. He appropriately recommended someone else to help us. I cannot say enough praises about Johnny and would highly recommend him and definitely use SJ Rooter & Plumbing again. Thank you! read more

Had an issue with shower/bath handle no longer rotating far enough to access hot water. Came here to Yelp to find a decent plumber and found Johnny's business with 160 five star reviews. Why would I look further? I did a request for quote and within minutes Johnny offered to be by at 4. I also heard from other providers, one who stated a likely cause and cost for repair. Johnny offered a free on site quote after he assessed the problem and came in at a reasonable price. He called and arrived hours early and quickly fixed the issue. He deserves all 5 stars for quick, effective and reasonably priced work. read more

SJ Rooter & Plumbing - Plumbing Near Me

5 stars! We shopped quotes from several plumbers to fix a leak in our main line. SJ Rooter was by far the best value, responded immediately to my inquiry, and was able to show up in less than an hour. He did the job by himself in two hours, while the other quotes I collected had at least two guys and estimating 3-4 hours. Oh, and it started raining as he took care of the leak. To top it off, all of this done with a smile. We will only be using SJ from now on. Thanks Johnny! read more

WOW! Same day service, but that was my luck, Arrived early, easily estimated the work. Knew how far down the drain line the clog was. Johnny fixed it quickly. A very polite and pleasant entrepreneur! I could not have been pleased more! Highly recommended and I will use him again for any future plumbing work! read more

Overall: Johnny from SJ Plumbing is the best and I won't go to anyone else unless I have no choice. I think the best compliment I could give is that you will feel good after doing business with him. The work was quality, the price was fair, he was knowledgeable, and pleasant to have in your home. Background: My house is 20 years old and has plumbing issues in the few months that I owned it. I used two other plumbing companies prior to SJ Plumbing to address the issues. One company was great to work with and fixed the problem, but the price was ridiculous that I felt horrible for days afterwards. Last week, the second company was assigned through my home warranty company AHS and the workmanship was below average and they felt shady. Thus far, my experience with plumbers has been dreadful. Recent problem: I needed to have all my angle stops replaced under the sink in the house, a new p-trap, a cleanout in my master bathroom for my clogged sink (this last one was recommended by the last plumber that I eventually didn't need). At first, I thought to change the angle stops myself because I didn't want to deal with plumbers. I went out and bought the stuff, started the process, then realized some would be tricky to replace (BTW, I made the hole in the wall in the photo). I went to Yelp to find someone and per the reviews I reached out to SJ Plumbing and he came over to take a look. I showed him the problems above and when we got to the cleanout he said with a smile "you don't need to install that, I can unclog it!" We went over the cost; he gave me a fair price and said he would be available if I wanted to select him. At that moment, I was already sold. Outcome: He took care of all the problems, and everything is working as it should. He was even kind enough take a couple of minutes to adjust one of the new angle stops that the last plumber installed the week prior that started leaking when we turned on the water. This detail is something that some plumbers would "nickel and dime" you on. The little things matter. Johnny, I appreciate you taking a stressful situation for me and my family and fixing it. Cheers! read more

Amazing! Arrived promptly, great communication, and very friendly. Will use them going forward! Helped install a washer and dryer as well as a new hose bib. read more

John was great, on time , work was very good . He is a professional . Highly recommend

Under no circumstance should you look any further if you want: * Service with a smile * A prompt arrival * Quick and honest consultation * Quality work * Integrity * Fair prices SJ Rooter & Plumbing (Johnny) was worth my time and well worth the money. I had called and set an appointment with another very large, well known plumbing company in Houston. First, they gave me a 2 hour window of arrival. After no one arrived, I called, only to find out that the "technician is just finishing up on another job and will be there soon." Three hours later (a total of 5 hours), I told them to forget it. I never received a phone call or email of an apology or offer to reschedule. I called another company this week, but after reading the Yelp reviews, decided to keep searching. I am so glad I did. SJ Rooter & Plumbing will get all of our plumbing business as long as we live in Houston. Take my word, and the word of the other 160+ 5-Star reviewers: Look No Further Than SJ Rooter & Plumbing! read more

SJ Rooter & Plumbing - SJ Rooter & Plumbing - Plumbing Near Me

I've had Johnny over for plumbing work twice now and would definitely call him back. He did a faucet install, water shut-off install, toilet repairs and shower control fix. For the shower he was willing to work with the existing control and made a very old and frozen control like new again! This saved me lots of money as other plumbing companies wanted to take out the shower surround completely which would have run into the thousands. Johnny really knows what he's doing. He was a pleasure to work with and I highly recommend him! read more

SJ Rooter & Plumbing - Shower control fix - Plumbing Near Me

Had a bathtub faucet with intermittent slow drip which looked like it needed a replacement part at first. However when plumber came the leak had stopped. After checking he decided no replacement necessary at least for now. He was very gracious and did not charge despite the visit. He has done work before so this just was confirmation to me he is a quality and trustworthy resource. read more

First Yelp review ever. I was compelled to write this because of the professionalism, quality and care received by Sy. The water main to my house blew. Water off, we called SJ Rooter and Plumbing. They were booked but fit us in and were at my house within 1.5 hours. Immediately identified and fixed the major leak better than it was before. Prior work had connected galvanized to brass which caused the deterioration of the pipes. Sy was prompt, friendly and professional. The price was more than fair. Especially given the immediate response. I recommended him to my neighbor and don't hesitate to recommend him here. He's my plumber for life! read more

Took too long to reply to my YELP inquiry and when he did said he was booked and could not service my project. Don't contact him. He is too busy. Edit: Owner is correct, about his response time. The message did not get posted that evening for some reason but he was too busy to help me so I moved on. read more

SJ Rooter & Plumbing - After pipe repair - Plumbing Near Me

We had no idea the exact source of the leak from our dishwasher. SJ Rooter waited patiently as the dishwasher cycled, identified the source of the leak, and repaired it efficiently. I am very impressed with his service! read more

Call Johnny, don't waste your time and money with any other plumber like it did. He does not charge a fee for a consultation, he returned my message within 2 minutes and on 4th of July. Came the next day 1/2 an hour early. Gave me a super, more than fair estimate and did an excellent job. Very respectful to me and my property. After he started the job he was like, it's going to take longer than I thought; I'm waiting to hear the dreaded "it's going to cost more reply" like my previous plumber . but not Johnny; with a smile he said " but don't worry, I got this". And he sure did, super professional ; great attitude. You don't need to pay for any yearly membership to get a visit fee waived lol, he didn't ask me to write a review for him either. He is my to go to plumber for life. I wish I knew about him before I called the plumber I had used prior. You live and learn. You too , will soon find out why Johnny has 5 star reviews. Highly recommend!!!! read more

Wow! Once again, Yelp connecting the community to good local businesses! I found SJ Rooter & Plumbing on Yelp and Johnny responded immediately. We set an appointment for the same day and he arrived early to assess our office's toilet leak. To be honest, I have never called a plumber in my life, so I have always imagined them to be how they are portrayed on TV. Possibly late, frumpy with low hanging pants and possibly a rip-off. Johnny was friendly, early, professionally dressed in a polo and most importantly was masked & gloved up ready to work. He and his assistant quickly assessed our leak and let me know what needed to be done. They were in and out in about an hour. They ended up having to remove the toilet from the floor to replace some metals rings beneath it. Those parts were majorly corroded from rust and were sinking into the floor!! These were quickly replaced, toilet reinstalled with a clean caulking job, and the bathroom was cleaned up good as new. I was very impressed! Johnny was so kind to offer us a small discount but I refused since work was paying for this. A big thank you to Johnny and Team at SJ Rooter & Plumbing for their 5 star service! They accept Venmo & Checks. read more

We connected with Johnny for (what we thought) simple kitchen faucet installation. However, he discovered under our sink was extremely rusted pipes with a leaking (old) garbage disposal. We were super lucky we were last appointment of the day ... as he (and partner) took the time needed to completely replace our pipes and he ran to Lowes to get a new disposal and installed it right then. We were SO lucky to have found this out before the pipe burst and had it all done right then and there at an extremely fair price. We'll keep contact info handy - if we ever need a plumber again - for sure we'll call Johnny. Great work! Fair price! And we LOVE our new Moet faucet! read more

SJ Rooter & Plumbing - Plumbing Near Me

I've dealt with HVAC, internet provider, and other home service companies that give you an absurd time range of when they will arrive at my home. "We will be at your home sometime between 8 am to 1 pm." I work from home, and playing Russian Roulette on when someone will be at my home is ridiculous. Most of the time, these companies don't even meet their committed window! I don't expect anyone to be on time. I get it. You have multiple homes to visit. But a 5-7 hour time range? Not this company. The plumber arrived at the schedule time, took no more than hour, price was reasonable, and work result was outstanding. Will definitely hire this company again. read more

Read the 5 star reviews...they are all true. Will definitely use again, although I hope I don't have to. LOL

So responsive, friendly and very efficient. I had a leak, Johnny answered his phone right away, came within the hour, and fixed it within another hour. He also gave me advice about some areas in the house that I should watch out for and how to prevent issues with them. I'm glad I found Johnny! read more

Johnny did a great job helping us with getting our new faucet and vanity hooked up. He had to reroute the plumbing since the old one was too low and he did an amazing job. He also fixed our toilet bowl. It was sitting too high and did not seem stable. He was able to cut the pipe down and get the toilet to sit properly. Thirdly, we had a our outdoor water pipe that was leaking ( super old) and he was able to cut the old pipe and replace it and solder on a new one that works quite nicely now. I rehired him after we moved and he has able to fix our bathroom sink that was clogging and leaking. The price was fair, great service and great workmanship. He was able to come quickly to get it fixed as well. I highly recommend using SJ Rooter & Plumbing. Johnny is amazing! read more
