Best Businesses in Philadelphia, PA

When I found my water heater broken and leaking at 06:15 AM I called JB Plumbing.
By 09:30 AM that same day I was taking a hot shower with my new water heater!

Fast, courteous and professional service.
Installation was quick and very well done.

Highly recommended!

We had a second floor shower leak down to the floor below. They found the leak fairly quickly and fixed it. The price was fair and they were honest and pleasant to interact with. We are very satisfied and highly recommend them.

Had a water heater problem.  He took my call immediately and discussed at length with me what was happening.  Asked for nothing.  It was even a holiday weekend. He is number one on my list for my next home issue.

So I had a massive emergency late night with water gushing out of my toilet supply line and not only would the valve behind the toilet not turn off nor would my main water shutoff valve.  The basement was already flooded so I proceeded to call several so-called emergency 24 hr plumbers either they would not answer or they claimed there was no one working in my service area.  At a last ditch attempt I called Boss plumbing and he answered right away, but unfortunately he said that he had just sent his emergency plumber out to a job.  I must have sounded so exasperated that he said I'll come myself.  Not only did he come exactly when he said he would he stayed in touch en route.  He turned the water off in 3 seconds and fixed the issue quickly.  Now don't get me wrong this wasn't cheap but money isn't an issue when you have gallons of water pouring into your finished basement the cost to fix that is exponentially higher if I couldn't find someone.  Secondly, the next day I texted him to ask for a receipt and once agin he got right back to me and said he would email it.  To sum it up Boss plumbing has A++ customer service and professionalism and that's hard to find in this type of industry.  Lastly, they also do what they advertise which is emergency plumbing whereas I'd called several that advertised open 24 hrs but didn't even bother to answer.  If you ever have an emergency or just any plumbing issue these are your guys!

price was fair, work was solid and i will be using aqua for everything plumbing related going forward. jimmy billy and trevor are all great guys.

unless you have a really tiny job better suited for a handyman, or you identify as a rude and capricious person... you should stop reading reviews and just call aqua.

John is your go-to guy for any plumbing needs. I think everyone in my family has used him at this point whether in the burbs or the city. He'll do whatever he can to get there ASAP and gets the job done quickly and efficiently. We've never had to call him back for a job he's done wrong. He'll explain what happened, fix it and how then how to prevent it for the future, I would strongly recommend him to any friends or family. It doesn't hurt that he's also a great guy and will most likely become your friend after working with him once. He's honest with very fair pricing.

He helped my in-laws this past winter with their heat breaking and a problem in their basement  with washer/dryer. Both their plumber and HVAC guy came out and couldn't seem to find the problem. After getting John out there he knew what the problem was within minutes. They are so thankful to now have him for any other plumbing/heating needs.

You can 100% trust this company. Fair prices, fair service and the owner is there to help, not to gouge you like other companies that told me I had to replace my disposal. Feel free to call other companies like I did, but this one is best.

Goodman has done work on my former home in Queen Village and also my current home in Point Breeze.  They did the jobs right the first time and at a fair price.  They showed up as scheduled and cleaned up after the jobs were done.  I have also used them twice for emergency calls in the wee hours of the morning, water in the basement due to a pipe break and also a flood in my living room due to a pipe break, and they came out quickly and fixed the problem and prevented things from getting worse.  I will definitely use Goodman again when the need arises.  Plumbers in Philly are a dime a dozen but Goodman is top-notch.  Thank you.

Needed to have an Instant Hot Water Dispenser and garbage disposal remote button installed. Had to drill two holes in my granite countertop to install. Rick was quick to respond with a fair quote. Made the entire process painless and explained everything in detail. Very meticulous and left the place cleaner than he found it! Would definitely recommend and plan on using again soon!

We needed help with our shower plumbing on a Saturday afternoon and could not find a plumber that was available. However, Mike answered his phone right away and was able to come over.  He only works until 4pm on Saturdays but stayed at our house helping us until at least 5pm.  My boyfriend loves to learn all things home reno related, so mike took the time to show him the problem and teach him how to fix it.  His prices were great and he was very honest and helpful. Would DEFINITELY recommend!

We love these guys. They've come by a few times, they're always friendly, efficient, and knowledgeable, and even willing to teach us something. They can be a little hard to get a hold of in short notice, but John always calls back soon and he's really nice!

I highly recommend them for large and small jobs.

This is the second time we've used Valdel (and Steve A in particular) for a leak in the last few months.

Steve was awesome yet again in diagnosing our leak - he got here earlier than expected, is professional, courteous and very pleasant to work with and most importantly technically talented. He diagnosed, explained and remediated the plumbing issue in no time.

Like we said when we had our last issue - we would go to Valdel / Steve for any future issues and so glad we stuck to our word.

Thank you again Steve A and Valdel!!

A pipe broke on Thursday (Thanksgiving).  Friday morning I entered a Yelp request for a quote from Bommer plumbing.  (Yelp site now says response is typically within 9 hours, although at the time I'd thought it was 4 hours).  Nothing back on Friday, Saturday, or Sunday in spite of their 24 hour service claim.  Early Monday morning I receive a message saying technician can't evaluate from picture and will need to come onsite to quote.  If you accept quote, $87 charge will be waived.  I can understanding wanting more info, but how about a call or request for more detail first, before charging $87 for an estimate?

Compare this to JB Plumbing, where the owner responded within 10 minutes of my request, happened to live nearby and came over to check out the situation (no charge) and then gave me options since he didn't have needed part in hand.  One of the options was to wait and see what other plumbers responded.  If no one was available, let him know and he'd send one of his techs from Phila on Saturday.  Long story short - go with JB and skip the M-F, no holiday support Bommer.

Maybe it was just an off time or they aren't set up to respond to yelp quickly, but they should say so in their listing.

OMG- they were a life saver!!! My master shower has been slowly clogging over the years but last night, it was totally clogged. I contacted Zip to Zip this morning and they were out in less than an hour!! And then he cleared it in 10 minutes and was so reasonably priced. I cannot say enough about this business. Thank you thank you!!

We are currently using Williams Precision Plumbing to renovate the hall bathroom. Chris and his team do an amazing job and are professional and polite. Chris came for the free estimate and spent time answering all my questions. He is also very responsive via email and text which has made scheduling very easy. I will use them again for our future plumbing needs!

I have used Bernie and Mike for a toilet replacement and shower valve replacement over the last couple years - they are fast, friendly, reliable, and competitively priced.  Highly recommended.

Wow what a great team!

Needed to replace the hot water heater and not only did the team of professionals quote pricing for a decent temporary fix, but also competitively quoted the cost for a full replacement (incl. labor).  We went with the replacement and couldn't be more pleased!

Both quotes were very competitive! Service was fast and comprehensive. Didn't take long to schedule the prelim evaluation or the replacement service/repairs.

Tyler is amazing! What an awesome technician, knowledgeable and super friendly.

Curtis is the owner and he scheduled the service. Also super friendly and excellent to work with.

Absolutely top notch business! I highly recommend if ever you need anything

Our hot water heater busted late in the afternoon, so by the time I started asking around for quotes, it was after business hours. Kevin responded quickly (within an hour-ish?), gave me a quote right away, and answered all my questions. (and I had a lot of questions!) His quote was very reasonable---and, it stayed consistent. The price he quoted was the price I paid.

When I asked him to check on a warranty thing, he said he'd call the supplier in the morning, which he did. This might seem like a small thing, but he was the only one who responded to my late night message with, I'll verify this, instead of trying to hurry me into a decision.

This next part seems pretty basic? But I promise it's not. *He actually answered messages consistently, and showed up when he said he would.* OK??

He did a professional, quick installation, and again, answered all my questions when I had them. I hope we never have water heater or plumbing issues again... but if/when we do, we will call him.
