Shawn arrived on time; he called 15 minutes prior to appointment time to say he was on his way. Very professional. Wore booties on his shoes while inside the house. Listened as we explained the issue with the clogged toilet. Explained what he was doing to unclog the toilet. Would call again and will definetly reccommend.

Great experience. Everything was explained clearly so I understood the options and what everything would cost. Everything was repaired and is working great.

These folks are my plumbers for life! When using the kitchen sink created a shower in the basement, I was VERY nervous about what sort of cost I'd be in for! Shawn showed up right on time, assessed the situation and showed me clearly what was going on, and prepared 3 different estimates within a few minutes. This involved some significant pipe-replacement and re-configuring but he had the entire thing done in under 3 hours, and the charge was MUCH less than I would have expected (and, I have learned less than others would have charged). Poor John's plumbers will answer all your

I felt compelled to write this, albeit belated, review. If you would have asked me a year ago, heck even 6 months ago, for a plumbing recommendation, it would have been Poor John's Plumbing. First let me say that any & all work ever done by Erik, and another plumber whose name escapes me right now, has been top notch. Excellent job done every time they came out. But, back in September, we had requested a bid for our latest plumbing job. As part of the progressive remodel on our 1972 house. Jake came out to look at the job needing to be done in the main bathroom, which was pretty similar

So thankful I found this company!! From the moment I first talked to Jake, he was helpful, professional, and went above and beyond to help me solve my sewer line problems. After four different people trying, Jake was the only person who was able to clear some massive tree roots from my line -- saving me from an $8,0000 sewer line replacement. Every other company that came out was ready to give up and dig up my front yard to fix it, but Jake wanted to make sure that the expense and undertaking were absolutely necessary. He explained everything to me as he tried to diagnose my main line problem

They wanted to make a very simple job into a week long process. I called them to remove a faulty pressure reducing valve, which was between two shutoff valves (a real easy set-up). They wanted to reschedule appointemets to diagnose low water pressure. . . Tear apart lines and other stuff to find a clog. They emphatically told me there is no way that valve could be in error. That was the purpose of that call. . . To remove that valve. To make a long story short, I told them to remove or I'll get someone else. (I was correct) Still, only needed about 8" of 3/4" pipe, 2 couplers

I'm usually very critical when it comes to hiring work in my home. I do most handy work myself, but plumbing is something I haven't tapped into yet. I hired Poor John's to install an anti-freeze sillcock in my garage, something I wasn't totally comfortable doing myself. I called them on a Wednesday, had a guy out on Thursday to take a look, a quote was presented to me on Friday, and the work was done the following week on the day and I had requested it be done. The contractor was professional, friendly, explained everything he did, and was done in about an hour. Great work and

Best company ever! Saved me almost $8,000. I had a sewer backup at my house and called my home warrantee company. They sent out Benjamin Franklin Plumbing. Do not hire Benjamin Franklin Plumbing. They quoted me almost $8,000 to replace a sewer line under my sidewalk, then tried to get me to finance without getting another estimate. I decided to get another estimate anyway. My mom and I had both used Poor John's plumbing before and they were honest and fixed our previous problems the cheapest, most effective way possible. So I called them. When I called to get a quote from Poor John's

We have used them for all of our plumbing needs. They are great every time. Very honest and upfront about costs and let us do what we can ourselves to save money, while still providing a professional job to code. They even have prices listed on their website so you know exactly what to expect. Every plumber they have sent to us are pleasant people and Jasmine at their office is SO nice and prompt on the phone.

These guys are awesome! They give a free estimate. They are straightforward and gave us options, told us what we could do ourselves to cut the cost. I just felt so comfortable with their complete honesty. They charge per job, so we were not nervously watching the clock. They also have a one year warranty.
