Feb 07, 2022 Report
We had a new hot water tank installed in November to the tune of $1,300+. The installer did a great job. No complaints about the service we received. At the time of our initial discussion, we were informed that because our existing tank was installed in 2006, we would need to have an electrician come in to see if we might need to update our electrical panel. They would take care of contactcontacting an electric company. AT NO TIME in this discussion were we told that there would be an extra charge for this.

Since they were handling choosing the company, we assumed that the fee was included in the estimate we were given. Last week, we received a bill for $125 from Venice Electric. over 3 months after the tank was installed! The guy was here less than 5 min. He literally open the panel, said we were fine, closed it and left! BUYER BEWARE! Plumber John did NOT disclose this extra fee and will NOT take responsibility for it!

As a realtor I recommend Plumber John to my customers who are looking for good work at a reasonable price. I wouldn't call anyone else for my own home.

Our HOA management service sent PlumberJohn to check a leak. It turned out to be a bad wax seal in a toilet. The charge was $272. Incredibly high charge for what is a routine half hour job by even a rookie plumber. For comparison a neighbor had an old toilet removed and a new installed for $75 by different plumber. Definitely get a price upfront before using or ordering work.

Paul and Mike were great to help me with my toilet that was leaking. I called Plumber John at 8:30 am and they were here by 10:30! They replaced the wax ring seal and did it efficiently. I was grateful for their kindness and superb work! Would recommend this business to anyone!

If a fair price, on-time arrival and perfectionist work are not your bag, go elsewhere. I had a moderately difficult job, moving water leads and drains, and John the 2nd (not the boss but a top plumber) handled it perfectly. Estimate by Rick was spot on. Fan for life.
