Best Businesses in Philadelphia, PA

I have had 2 crappy dilemmas (bah hahaha!!!! @least I'm laughing about it now!!)  in which I had to find someone with experience, that came well referred and who was professional.
I reached out to 5 different plumbing companies through Yelp.com On 9/26//18 @ 3:56p.
MARK W. Was the first one to get back to me @4:16p~ literally 20 mins!!! Even though I decided it was in my best interest to not even attempt to have someone retrieve what I accidentally flushed, I'm so SERIOUS when I say this. I VALUE COMMUNICATION!!

Then on 10/4/18 at 4:31am I messaged Mark W.  
After plunging the very same commode recently flushed a dental apparatus down..just 7 days earlier!?!?
I Almost started crying!! I did wipe a few tears away. I was so overwhelmed, overly disgusted, terribly exhausted, nauseated beyond comprehension..The fact that the toilet wouldn't flush, it kepover flowing the worst details I'll spare anymore of the horrorific details.
Mark W. Was right there again In 21 mins
(TO MY SHOCK! That early in the morning or late at night whichever one prefers)
@ 4:50am he responded!!!!!
Needless to say, I've yet to hear back from 3 of the other companies. I'll DEFINITELY call upon JB PLUMBING & HEATING as we will heed advice & soon replace this toilet... Thanks Mark 4 being at the other end to communicate and rely upon its a priceless trait too few have!!

Professional, prompt. I have no problem recommending the technician Sam and his co-worker.

Brandon was great.

Our water heater and cast iron sewer pipe decided to leak at the same time.

Despite it being the holiday season, Brandon came out the next day and was able to assess the situation and gave us very knowledgable information.

He was willing to work with us on the price and got the work done within the week.

Highly recommend and will definitely use him again in the future!

Had a leak they came out and told me my problem and all so clean out my tub pipes (curly hair household ) so you know the hair backed up and created a slow drain. They fixed it up no problem

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.

Our tankless water heater was acting up and we needed a gas valve replaced.  John called me right back, sent two of his best people, and three hours later our water heater was working great, valve replaced, and they even found an issue we didn't know about and fixed it on the spot.  Such great, informative service.  And they cleaned up too! Thank you.

Kit and his team are wonderful to work with. We needed a new water heater to be installed within a difficult, small location within our house, and we were debating whether or not we could use a tankless water heater. Prior to the appointment, Kit texted with me back and forth over my options and answered all of my questions, and in the end we realized a traditional water heater made the most sense. Kit and his team then arrived right on time for the appointment (I feel like that is a rarity with many contractors these days), and he was incredibly respectful and communicative. He noticed that I didn't have shoes on in our house and we had a shoe rack with shoes lined up on it, and so he asked if we normally don't wear shoes in our house and offered to take his shoes off. I was so shocked and grateful since I've never had a contractor be that considerate before! Not only did he do a great job removing our old water heater and installing a new one, but he also cleaned up afterwards and put everything back the way it was. He truly was a pleasure to work with, and I'm grateful to have a plumber whom we know we can trust to communicate as needed throughout the process and can do great, professional work. Thanks again!

I only have great things to say about these guys.   24/7 and very responsive.   I have been calling Goodman for years and they never disappoint.  I live in center city Philly- not the easiest place for service providers.   Most recently Goodman helped me- Super Bowl Sunday - Joe came out when I called with water in my basement .   Yes - Super Bowl Sunday.  Then I called again after a crazy rain the night before the Eagles Parade.   Ryan came out to snake the drain again - ready- the morning of the Parade to make sure I could use my water until they could come back the next day to take a camera down to figure out how bad things were.   Mike came the next day and using the camera determined that my clay pipes were broken and needed to be replace .   Then a few weeks later Steve, Derek and John spent 2 days digging around all the gas lines and other stuff 8 feet under my street to replace my broken pipes.  These guys were professional, friendly and very dependable.   I do and always will recommend Goodman Plumbing.

Highly recommended!  I needed a plumber to fix something I tried doing myself (water supply line for an ice maker) but I screwed it up and needed a pro.  In the meantime a bucket was catching the drips.

Earlier in the day I had a plumber come from one of the bigger companies whose trucks I have seen in our area for years, come give an estimate.  He took a look, said he had to go call the boss, then came back with an absurdly high estimate.

Using Yelp I found Rick Lucas plumbing locally and called.  Rick answered the call, said he could be there within 1-2 hours, would call first.  He called back as promised and arrived shortly thereafter.

Rick took a look at what was needed.  He also determined that some additional copper piping adjacent to what I messed up needed to be repaired as it was corroded, and verbally gave me a price.

Rick not only replaced all the necessary piping including the additional areas that he recommended, he also added the necessary fittings and connections and shutoff valve and flexible steel supply hose and completed the connection to our new refrigerator.  Rick worked non-stop, and is professional, courteous and friendly, and cleaned up afterwards.

Best of all his price was 33% less than the first place that came.  (Plus I returned the parts I previously bought to Home Depot and Lowes so saved even more).

I am very pleased that I had Rick Lucas Plumbing do this job at our home, and wouldn't hesitate to call him the next time I need a plumber.

I meant to write this review years ago, but recently realized that I never did. If I could give Mike 10 stars, I would. He is professional, knowledgeable, competitively priced, trustworthy, and a genuinely kind person. He has done a few larger projects for us over the years (old house plumbing issues!), and when he could not help (we needed our main external sewer pipe replaced, which involved ground excavation in our front yard), he directed us to someone else fantastic. Mike has taken the time more than once to answer my random questions by text message, which I appreciate SO much. We will never use anyone else!

Jack (the owners son) installed a new fixtures for my bathroom and I couldn't be happier. It took him a little longer than usual b/c of unexpected problems with the pipes and he didn't overcharge me on the count of  it. Very considerate and nice. I am very happy to have a reliable plumber (they actually called me back and came when they said they would!) I highly recommend this company.

The guys followed all COVID 19 protocols and did a Great Job clearing a main drain clog!

After Roto Rooter came out and quoted me $7,500 dollars for a whole new main since mine was broken and couldn't be snaked, I went with a second opinion and called Bommer. Their receptionist and plumber were seriously awesome and had my problem fixed in 30 mins...for $300. We will never go with anyone else after the crooks we encountered, that you tech Jim Murphy!

Excellent service very courteous and very reasonable pricing, will definitely call them again if needed

I cannot recommend Chris Williams enough. Chris has done many jobs for our family in both our previous home and our new home. He installed an entire master bathroom addition for us as well as other smaller jobs and repairs. Most recently Chris has helped us during a water main clog right before the holidays when we had family visiting and we're in a major pinch! If we had not hired him for the job, we would very likely have ended up with waste water overflowing in our first floor kitchen and bathroom on Christmas Eve!

He has gone above and beyond in many ways - from being available via text and cell at late hours, to taking the time to fully explain in layman's terms the details of every job he has done. He lets you know why he recommends the solution he is proposing as well as gives you options. He clearly thinks through each situation with care and does what is best for the homeowner. He and his team have always been courteous and kind, and on top of it all, his prices are very fair and reasonable. If prefer to work with someone you can trust and feel comfortable with, go with Chris!

I cannot say enough good things about Michael, who came out to look at my slow flushing toilet. I tried many things myself in an attempt to fix it and resolved myself to needing a new toilet, so I called MyPlumber. Michael first gave me a few tips over the phone, and when they didn't work, he came out. Most plumbers would have automatically told me I needed a new toilet, but Michael spent a good 30 minutes cleaning calcification out of the siphon jet with a wire hanger and the toilet was good as new. He was an unbelievably nice guy and even gave me some tips for unrelated plumbing issues he noticed in my bathroom. I have dealt with my fair share of crappy contractors and handymen so this was a nice change of pace. When you find a good one you have to hang on to them. Highly, highly recommend!

Diagnosed and cleaned the drainpipe and gave me an excellent grade in my main drainpipe. Reliable and personable - you can't go wrong.

Prompt professional service company. Reasonable pricing. I will use again and recommend.  
Kudos K and Thank you!!!
