The service was fabulous. We actually expanded what we were going to with them and they have been great. They redid our bathroom, reset the toilet, installed new tub/shower enclosure, retiled the floor and reset the plumbing fixtures. They are also replacing about 30 feet of drainage pipe that was leaking. We will be hiring them to redo all of the plumbing in our second bathroom. They really go the extra mile. They found a few things in the bathroom that were not right and did them without charging us. We have a comfortable feeling about them and they are honest and open. We really like working with them.

Went better than I expected. John is pleasant and professional and was perfectly prompt! I liked him so well that I made an appointment for him to come next week to swap out my kitchen faucet. This is a good guy!
Description of Work: Came within 2 hours of when I called to fix a bad rupture in our outside faucet which had been broken and incorrectly "repaired" by a tree trimmer last week. JrW Plumbing owner John turned water off and removed incorrect parts and reassembled with copper pipe and correct fittings. He then turned water back on to test. Voila! No leaks! I am so relieved!

He re-installed our garbage disposal, new kitchen faucet, and all associated under the sink piping (we had our kitchen remodeled). He did great as he was able to perform all this on one day between our countertop installation (one day) and before our new flooring was installed (2 days).

Bid on job and then put me off 30 days or more. UPDATE: See above
Description of Work: John from JRW seemed knowledgeable and was on time. I liked his bid and decided to proceed with him. I did question him on site about having Workers Compensation Insurance since he had a helper with him. When I called him later, he said he was too busy to do the job for another 30 days or more. (Initially, he said he could start the work within a week) He referred me to Thomas at Drain Masters. (See my review on Drain Masters) I do not know if John at JRW was legitimately too busy to take my job or just passing me off to another company because I questioned him about Workers Comp. Either way, it was rude to take up my time and that of my tenants. And who he passed me off to (Drain Masters) was of no help either. (See Drain Master review) Because I am not sure of JRW's true intention, I gave them the benefit of the doubt and rated them with a "C". UPDATE 1/16/14: John......you are right in that I did not get back to you for 4-5 days after your bid. I have upgraded my review to a "B".

Response from JRW Plumbing
Thank you for your interest in my company's service. I would like to properly outline the sequence of events. Something that you're leaving out is there was a time lapse of 4-5 days from when I gave you the bid to when you called me and told me you wanted to proceed, At first you said my bid was high, which leads me to believe you were obtaining other bids, and I encourage customers to get other bids. I also told you the day we met on site that as of right now I can start early next week but that can change very quickly, which it did. I have a General Contractor that I work for and had 4 houses on bid that had just come in and tied up my schedule for the next few weeks. When you contacted me to do the work you asked about my workers compensation and we discussed it and I believe we had come to a resolution. It is unfortunate that we were not able to make out schedules connect. I hope that your plumbing issue was resolved.

Great, I will certainly call John again when I need anything done. Part of the cost was the new shower head and faucet, very reasonable.
Description of Work: John and Andrew came one day a week or two earlier and fixed outside faucets that were leaking. I showed them what I needed done in the house. John returned and put in new shower head and kitchen faucet. It's an old house and he matched the new faucet perfectly to the age of the house. John even installed my water filter in the refrigerator that I just had not gotten around to doing. Very personable and professional. Enjoyed talking with him.

John arrived right on time and went right to work. He was very pleasant and was nice to my dogs. I had changed the kitchen faucet, had a leak and he tightened things and looked everywhere for any further leak. He replaced the dishwasher vent and checked everything. We discussed other plumbing projects and I would use him again in the future.

JRW Plumbing showed up on time. They were excellent and very friendly. They were in and out. They did what I had asked them to do, they got it done, and everything looks great. It took them about two hours to do the job. I will absolutely use them again.
Description of Work: They redid the plumbing in all three of our toilets. They came to do the job probably within a week or 10 days after I purchased the Big Deal. I spent more than the initial price of the Big Deal because we replaced all the inside plumbing.

Response from JRW Plumbing
Hello [member name removed], First off my deepest apologies for your dissatisfaction with the services provided. When we first met I thought I outlined pretty well what we were going to do for the irrigation line to your sprinkler valves, which PVC valves are legal and used quite often. The first appointment was missed and I did give plenty of notice as well as covering the cost of the material I used to complete your project at no charge for the inconvenience. Again I apologize and wish you would have contacted me if you were dissatisfied with the service so we can clarify things instead of this being the first I hear off it. I would hope if you need anything in the future you would consider my services, it is evident this is a complete mishap and not the type of service my company offers. If you choose to use me in the future I will honor that same discounted service at no extra charge. Thank you for your time. John Williams JRW Plumbing

When the plumber arrived, I showed him the job that needed to be done. He immediately went to work, and had the repair done in short order. He used two parts from his own stock, and the prices he charged were below the retail prices I had found online. I inspected the work, and found he had done an excellent job.

My washing machine drain had been overflowing occasionally, and I assumed it had something to do with utility sink a friend had added to the line sometime ago. When John arrived, he immediately recognized the problem was not with the sink, but that my drain pipe needed clearing. He pointed out that it was connected with my kitchen drain which probably collected the typical kitchen greases, etc. John told me that he could do some drain cleaning with a snake and with a "bladder type" instrument, but that thorough drain cleaning was not his specialty--he normally focuses on leaky pipes, etc. But fortunately, the snake and the bladder worked wonders, and the washing machine has been draining better than ever. He spent about 1-1/2 hours working on the problem. John was very punctual, professional and friendly.I used the Angie's List deal ($200 worth of service for $95). The charge would have been $135. John said I could use the remainder at any time -- not just the 3 months allowed by the "Deal".

Took a little bit to get together on a time because he's just so busy, but once we did get something scheduled he came out, found the problem quickly, went to Home Depot and got the right part and fixed us up. Pretty painless, very friendly and professional. I would definitely use Jim again and would recommend him to others.

Thank you for the opportunity to help you with your plumbing issues, I'm glad we were able to get away with just replacing the cartridge and not the whole valve! Please keep me in mind in the future, thanks!

John was prompt, courteous, efficient and very friendly. He is not only very good at his work but also seems to enjoy it. He had some great suggestions that solved a problem we were having and also saved us money! As I mentioned up above, John had to work around other contractors. We were amazed at how quickly he returned and completed the job! He was back the very next day after the concrete people finished! We highly recommend John and will hire him again.
Description of Work: We called John to adjust some plumbing for our pool and add some plumbing for our gas barbeque. We were also getting a new pool deck, so he had to start the job before the concrete people came and finish after they were done.

Not only did John replace the kitchen faucet, on time, I mean to the minute, the most punctual person I can recall ever. He also came back 2 days later to fix a small leak under the sink for nothing!!! It was not due to his job, it was actually unconnected to his job. He went to the store ,purchased a replacement piece and fix it FOR NOTHING!!!. How many people would do that with professionalism, kindness and a smile? He is a keeper and a person to recommend.

I found John (JRW Plumbing) through Aggie's list. I bought the deal he was offering $95.00 for $200.00 of work.. He made an appointment with me the same day for the following saturday between 10 and 12...He was prompt and hooked up the washing machine. He needed to buy a part and came back the following monday and finished the service. He is wonderful and my husband and I felt we finally found a super plumber we could trust. He is very knowledgeable, he has his own contractors license in good standing and he gets the work done. In my heart, after meeting him one time you'll feel like you've known him forever...He's good, he's honest and to me we came out a winner. If you need a good plumber CALL John

We decided we needed to replace the fixtures on our vanity sinks as they were showing a little more wear than desired after 27 years of service. We contacted John of JRW Plumbing and scheduled a time for an estimate. The estimate was reasonable; what was more invaluable, however, was the advice to consider replacing the vanity sinks as well. As john pointed out, the sinks, although in good condition, would still show some evidence of wear and staining around the fixture locations. So we ordered the sinks (still available from Kohler after all this time!) and scheduled a time to have this installed. John and Andrew arrived as scheduled and the installation went smoothly. Very professional job - and he made sure he was satisfied with the work as well as that we were satisfied. We will have him back out for another job in a couple weeks, we are so satisfied with his ethics and workmanship. Highly recommend him.
