Just Plumbing

I have used Just Plumbing for several projects and I've always been very happy with their work. Tim and Oscar are both friendly and they know what they're doing. The previous homeowners didn't install a trap on the washing machine so my laundry room smelled like a sewer sometimes. Tim and Oscar explained my several repair options, and how much wall damage would result, etc. They only needed to cut out a small square of drywall to install the trap, then reattached the piece of drywall. All I needed to do to finish was tape and paint. The trap took care of the smell and I'm happy.

I wouldn't call anyone else but Just Plumbing for a repair. Tim and Oscar work fast, are polite, and quiet; none of the hollering that some crews do. Plus when you call you get to speak to Kelly, she cracks me up, she's funny and nice.

I had a lot of issues with my new houses plumbing and was referred to Just plumbing by a friend. The prices were fair and the plumber Tim was very nice and did a wonderful job fixing everything quickly and neatly. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

We had a hot water pipe break in the concrete slab of our kitchen; leaking into my garage. Tim and crew at Just Plumbing did a fantastic job. They were honest. Treated us kindly and fairly. Went over all of the issues with us, discussed the pros and cons of each solution. We felt very involved in the process. Very happy with their service. Will absolutely use them again.

p.s. The other company (1.4 stars on yelp) was rude, didn't give us any options and wanted to charge triple the price as well as take twice as long to complete the job. Doesn't surprise me that Just Plumbing has 4.5 stars and the other company (that shall not be named) only has 1.4 stars. Hmm...wonder why?

I would not recommend Tim. He installed a part for me and the shower still never worked correctly. Afterwards, He never returned my calls or texts to return to my place to repair it correctly. Eventually I had another plumber come out to see what the issue was and unfortunately Tim had over tightened the locking nut which caused the cartridge to break. This part which I have to re-purchase again is $100. Also, he was not careful  with my shower floor and dropped his tools and chipped my tile and a piece of grout came out. It's so irritating when people are not careful and they don't take responsibility.

Tim is our plumber of first choice. He is honest and does great work. We have no trouble referring him out to other people and use Just Plumbing for all of our rental properties.

He is honest and when he is caught up in a big job he is forthright and communicates that his time of arrival is an estimate. As our go to plumber we appreciate this. He is our plumber.

One drawback, Just Plumbing is a small company so 24 hours 7 day a week service is not always available. For that we have another plumber from one of the majors as backup. But we ALWAYS call Tim first. We like dealing with him and so do our tenants!

Bottom line, Tim and Oscar are great, and they will be our go to service whenever problems come up. They are honest, reliable and have reasonable prices.

We had problems with our 1956 shower faucets where the seats were stuck and we had to cap off our shower head as water was just pouring out. They were able to come by the same day I called. Tim told me over the phone that he knew exactly what the problem was and explained the options. He told me exactly how much it would cost. The other places I called quoted me over the phone as well but were $300+ higher (2 other plumbing services)
Tim & Oscar came out (on time) drilled through the front of the shower installed new faucet hardware (from double to single), put in the new shower arm/head and were done with the whole project in under an hour. No mess, they cleaned everything up and it was good as new and after almost 3 weeks everything is still working great. They were so fast, we asked them to fix our pipes under our kitchen sink too. They fixed it in less than a half hour and for a very reasonable price.
Then, we had to call them again last week as the pressure in our kitchen sink was very low. It had nothing to do with what they did last time they were here. It turned out to be some broken pieces of plastic from when my husband installed the new sink. They were able to come out within an hour of us calling and they fixed it in less than a half hour and didn't charge us anything!!

This is the place to go for your plumbing needs. I had a wet spot in the front yard. Called them after trying several other places and they answered right away. They worked with my schedule to get one of their plumbers to my house. Within 30 minutes he had found the leak. He had everything to fix the problem on hand and completed the repair in just a couple hours. Outstanding service and great people at this family owned and operated business. They get my highest recommendation.

Guys are HACK'S.

Don't schedule an appointment with me for an early morning time slot then 1) Blow it off. 2) Never even apologize for wasting my time. 3) Never get back to me with parts quote.

I'd rather slam my hand in a car door than get my shower fixed by these plumbers.

We purchased a new house in August and have used Just Plumbing quite a few times.  Ernie (the owner) and his assistant are informative, professional, efficient and courtesy.  

Not only was it a great price, but Ernie gave tips on other plumbing issues while he was at my house and I could definitely tell he has a lot of experience.  He replaced some of the piping underneath our sink because the pipe below our disposal was leaking.  He fixed it all, explained in detail about how the grade of the pipe was incorrect and how it looked like someone had done a DIY project incorrectly.  While he was under the house fixing something else, he said he heard the toilet running a lot, took a look and replaced an inexpensive piece free of charge.  

I truly can't say enough about them.  Fair prices, totally informative, honest and wonderful to do business with.

Great service. I've used Just Plumbing twice now. First time was at my business and then at my personal residence each time they showed up a few minutes early and got right to the needed repairs. Very professional work and they were super clean and fast that meant the world to me at my shop since the customers restroom wasn't working.. Plus they unknowingly did my repairs for way less then I was originally quoted by someone else. Tim and Oscar are definitely our new Plumbers.

I had a major issue with the old cast iron sewage pipes at my house.  My bathtub drain was completely plugged up, and a snake could not clear it.  First I had a couple of the big guys (Mr. Rooter, etc.) come out and they did a camera inspection.  I had leaks and roots inside the sewage pipes.  They suggested replacing the pipes with ABS pipes using pipe-bursting.  The pipes will be replaced, but they will still be located under the house and under the concrete slab. They wanted a lot of money to do that.  The other big company suggested relining the pipes, but then I found out they can only reline 3 inch pipes, not 2 inch pipes which is half of my pipes.  Also with lined pipes, you can not use a snake to clear clogs anymore. The snake will actually damage the liner.  I then called Just Plumbing and they rerouted the sewage pipes underground on the outside of the house using ABS pipes.  They did a great job at a fraction of the price of the big guys.  The best thing about rerouting the plumbing outside is that now I have easy access to the pipes in case there is another issue with my sewage pipes in the future.
I will always use JUST PLUMBING from now on.  Great service at a fair price.
Oh yes,  one of the Big Guys called me back and asked if I have decided to do the job.  I told her I decided to use a smaller company that will do it at 1/3 of your cost.  She said: Oh yes, we run into that a lot. That's because we are a large company and we have a lot of over head.  At lease she was honest.

I have been a customer of Just plumbing for over 11 years. They installed all my kitchen appliances, including the kitchen sink. At my restaurant they replaced all the plumbing underneath the 1850's building. Installed  a grease trap. I call them for all my drain clearing needs.
Yesterday they came to the restaurant and replaced the faucet and sprayer. I had purchased all the items I thought I needed. Tim was able to save me a $100.00 by replacing some of the worn parts. They will help you to save money whenever possible.  I never worry about sticker shock when I get an invoice. Don't tell them, but it is usually less than I expect.
Thanks for all the years of great service

We were looking for a plumber and used yelp to locate Just Plumbing.

We are very satisfied with the work, the prices & professionalism. The team was knowledgeable and did not try to Up Sell

I  will call them again and would refer them to my neighbors here in the North Metro area.

Just plumbing was recommended to me by a friend and I couldn't be happier. Very efficient, courteous, knowledgeable, quick and they have great competitive pricing. I highly recommend using Just Plumbing for your plumbing needs. Thanks again Tim.

When I heard water under my house I immediately came on yelp and found Just Plumbing. I first spoke with Kelly who was professional and very nice. She fit me in and had Tim out to my house almost immediately. Tim was great! Fixed problem in less than an hour. Was on time professional and barely charged me anything.  I would highly recommend Just Plumbing to any of my family or friends.

I've been a customer of Just Plumbing for about 10 years now. They have done bathroom & kitchen remodels as well as drain clogs for various properties me & my family have.   Definately an honest company with fair prices.  They are my go to plumbing guys for sure!! I highly recommend them!!!

I called Just Plumbing last Tuesday and asked if they could come to my condo to provide an estimate to fix my leaking shower. The receptionist was nice and said that Tim (I think that was the name) could come out and provide an estimate and scheduled a window of 9am-11am last Thursday. I stayed home from work that morning to meet with the plumber and discuss the issue and estimate.

At 10:30 I had not heard from them, so I called and left a message because I wanted to make sure the plumber was not having any issues getting into my building. I received a call back immediately. The gentleman sounded confused and said he was just returning my call. I told him I called because I wanted to make sure that he knew how to get into my building for my appt this morning. He asked (again sounding very confused) what the issue I was having entailed. I told him my shower is leaking and I need an estimate to fix it. He tells me he cannot come out to my condo just to provide an estimate - that is a waste of his time. I tell him that's very interesting because I called and made this appointment window, which has now lapsed, for that very reason and have now been home from work for 2 hours awaiting his arrival. Apparently it's okay to waste my time? I told him I specifically asked the receptionist for an estimate appointment. He told me she's not a plumber and can't really give me that info. Your receptionist can't schedule appointments? Then why did she? She surely didn't give me any other info outside of a time slot which apparently vanished into thin air after we got off of the phone.

Anyways, I understand miscommunications happen, but any point during this call some sort of apology for the confusion would have been nice.

So, we chat on and he says that he charges $85 an hour and it will probably only take an hour to fix it so he can just come and fix it. I tell him that's fine, but I still need to identify what parts are needed so that we can estimate those for my landlord and that we may be able to order them under the manufacturer's warranty. He says I probably just need a new shower valve so if I send me photos of the shower he can try to see what parts I need and how much they will cost. I immediately text him images, per his request, but do not get any confirmation back that he's received. I follow up with another text to confirm receipt and he says that he is trying to get a price on parts right now. I tell him I have some additional bath specs from my building manager that might be helpful and that I can email those to him. He sends me his email address and asks is it kohler. I tell him, no, but that I have emailed him the specs, including the manufacturer.  

I have not heard anything back since. So, thanks Just Plumbing, for wasting my time and scarring my faith in customer service.

Great plumbers but their prices are outrageous.  We used to call them for our apartment buildings.  Never again.

I used Just Plumbing when I had my bathroom remodel done. Tim did excellent work  and explained the process to me. I have recommended him to several friends who also were very happy with his service.

JUST PLUMBING--Good Plumbing at a Fair Price

I just had the pressure regulator value go out. I called Bill Howe Plumbing because I had used them twice before with excellent service. They gave me an estimate of between $300 and $400, and normally I would have gone with that, but because of some other expenses money is a little tight. So I got on the computer and looked at other plumbers in the area.

Just Plumbing caught my eye because it has a couple favorable recommendations, is local, and is operated by self-employed plumber. So about 2 p.m. I gave them a call. I told the receptionist that I needed to have my pressure regulator value replaced, and she said she would call Ernie, the owner, and he'd get back to me. Fifteen minutes later I received a call from Ernie and explained my problem. He said he could replace the value for $250 and that he could replace it today if I liked. I thought the price was reasonable and said that would be great.

He arrived an hour later, examined the valve and said that if I liked he could probably replace a part in the valve which would cost less. I appreciated that he made that offer but since the valve was old (the part that started leaking had begun to crack from age). I told him I would feel better if a new valve was installed.

He and his assistant then installed the new valve, one that he said had fittings so that if it needed to be replaced in ten years I could do the job myself because no cutting of pipe or soldering would be required. He also installed a new faucet at no extra charge. The work was completed in less than an hour and is guaranteed for a year.

Ernie and his assistant were friendly, the work was completed in an impressive, economical and timely fashion, and no mess was left behind. Good, courteous work at a fair price--I don't know what more you could ask for.

P.S. Just Plumbing's phone number is 858-274-1723. 0550 is the Fax number.

These guys were awesome!  Needed my water pressure regulator replaced.  They were recommended by a friend, so I called them, they came by and looked at it the same day, then booked an appointment the very next day.  Professional and quick.  Within 24 hours the job was done and looked and worked perfect.  I paid half the price of my previous bid and it would have taking him a week!  I have now officially found my plumber!

Tim is my plumber.  No questions asked.  I had a renovation done on my bathroom.  Tim came to the rescue and lead my contractors to the right part so that I could have hot water while the construction was going on.  He also installed a hot water regulator (I think that's what it is called) so that I can have instant hot water instead of waiting for the water to get through the pipes in my upstairs shower.  He is always on time - he texts me if he is going to be late and he's an all around great person.  He does the job and his prices are totally fair.  His son traveled with him one summer and he told me...my dad can fix anything!   It's true!  He's just a good plumber who comes in, fixes what needs to be done, and charges you a fair price.

I definitely would recommend Just Plumbing to all my friends. They were professional (from the receptionist to Tim the handyman), on time, and the best part was their fair prices. They were the cheapest I've seen in the area and I would definitely use them again.

I manage many properties and use Tim Just as my number 1 go to plumber.  He's provided me with friendly service, and reasonable pricing.  He's done tiny jobs all the way up to 20 unit apartment repairs for me at a moment's notice.  I recommend him, and will keep him as my primary source of plumbing contractor.

My landlord hired Just Plumbing to come to the house and repair a toilet. Tom came out and discovered that there was a crack in the tank. He stated that a new toilet was needed and my landlord gave him the okay. An appointment was made for replacement and I was told Tom would be at the house at 9:00 am 2 days later. Tom knocked on my door at 9:30. He came without my phone number or name and picked a random neighbor's bell to gain entry to the building. I let him in and he started working. When he took the new toilet out of the box I saw it was not an ADA compliant toilet which the old toilet was. I mentioned that to him and he told me I was wrong, it just looked shorter. When he realized he was wrong he asked me if I wanted him to leave and return with the proper unit. I told him that I did but my landlord was paying the bill so he would need to speak with him. He told me there was just a 1 inch difference between the toilet he was hired to install and the one he brought with him. That is not true; it is 2 inches. Long story short, he installed the unit he brought and left. He may be the best plumber in San Diego but he proved that on Thursday May 3rd he was terribly unorganized and had an issue with the truth.

We called them after discovering a leak in the supply line and Tim and Justin showed up within 30 minutes and fixed the problem in hardly any time at all.  We will definitely call Just Plumbing again when we need a good, honest plumber.  My husband and I were extremely pleased with their service and expertise.

I have been a customer of Just Plumbing since 2004.  They have always been very reliable and they have always done a great job at a reasonable price.  It's very nice to have a go-to plumber that you can trust.

I had found an review of Just Plumbing and that is why I called for service. They were very competent and did such good job with our toilet leak that i asked them to put in a valve to make the shower not effected by other water uses. Again they were quick, clean and competent . And the charges were very reasonable and just what he estimated.

I have used Just Plumbing for over 8 years. Tim Just and his crew service my company which has several restrooms, gyms showers etc, and I use him personally at my home. They are an honest family run company. I always refer Tim to my employees and I will continue to use him always. Great prices and trustworthy!

Once you use Just Plumbing you will never worry about plumbing problems again. They do great work at a reasonable price and are very responsive to emergencies. Over the years they have fixed or replaced my toilets, garbage disposal, water regulator, leaky faucet and pipes, water heater, clogged drains, etc. They get the job done fast and right the first time. I can't thank Marni enough for recommending them.

In San Diego. Excellent work. Recommended. 3 visits: first was to assess the problem,, 2nd to remove all plumbing fixtures under the kitchen sink including the disposal, and 3rd to reinstall the plumbing including a new disposal unit after the kitchen sink had been refinished. Plumbing cost was reasonable and was charged for just the 2 visits. Appointments were on time within the window provided.  Tim did an excellent job of plumbing and provided a lot of good information about plumbing and repair work in general.  Also recommended a good sink refinishing company who also did a good job. I was pleased with the work and would recommend Tim and his company to others. I expect  to be in touch with him again if new future problems occur.

Just Plumbing is a family owned company, which made me feel comfortable from the start. They gave an accurate estimate, were fast and thorough. I am very pleased and will call them back again for other work. I really appreciated their reasonable price, as I did a lot of research before calling them, and I know I made the right decision. They stand behind their work with a  year warranty too! Amazing! Val J.

this is the second time well, maybe the third time i used Just Plumbing. wow! they are so good. timely. efficient, and quality work. this time i had a water heater that was leaking. i called Just Plumbing and they were out the next morning replacing the old one. Price was great.  Mike is just a great guy and does truly excellent work. Prices are totally reasonable and well to be honest i think they are way better than average. Once you use them they treat you as their customer for life. If they are here they will look at anything for free. Give advice. i have more work scheduled for next month. its had to find workman you can trust. i trust Just Plumbing completely. I would highly recommend Just Plumbing to one and all.
