Best Businesses in Philadelphia, PA

I am so appreciative of Mark from JB Plumbing. Our garbage disposal had suddenly stopped working, leading to our dishwasher machine to back up and flood the kitchen. We found JB on yelp the next morning, and they came out THE SAME morning. Not only that, when Mark figured out it was an electrician issue not a plumbing issue, he didn't charge me at all. Great and honest guy.

I had a mystery leak from a toilet that I couldn't fix myself, so I reached out to Economy via their online form and heard back from Travas within the hour. They were able to get someone out within two days to fix the leak and replace a the part causing the issue, while other places estimated a 1-2 week wait. Tim was pleasant and got the job done very quickly - highly recommended!

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!

We have a basement powder room that ties to an ejector pump. Over the last few days I didn't hear it running at all, so I put out a Yelp SOS and Boss responded the quickest. Warren scheduled with me and came out this morning to take a look -- good news for me as it was just clogged and not in need of replacement.

Warren and DJ arrived promptly, were friendly, good communicators, and had my problem solved in under an hour. I'm really appreciative of their expertise and how quick they got me back to normal. You can't beat that level of responsiveness and resolution!

Quick response and availability was quick.  They were very polite and handled the situation promptly.  Their level of communication was awesome.

Great experience! John is super responsive, which if you'd tried hiring a plumber in Philly before, you know this is a big deal! He was able to come out right away, and scheduled our tricky job for the next day. They worked as quickly as possible given the demands of the job. Now we can shower without water pouring into our basement :) Very fair on price, and he and his team took all the right COVID safety precautions.

It's my second time using them. First time Kit fixed garbage disposal that I thought needed to be replaced at a fraction of the cost. That's when he earned my trust. This time I called for a faucet installation and I needed someone who know what he's doing. I was worried that gold finish  could be scratched during installation. It turned out even better then expected. Completely happy with service.

I have used Goodman several times. Not only has everyone who has come out been fast, efficient, fair, friendly and explained everything so I could understand. They also helped with figuring out my unique situation of having my wheelchair and sink pipes fighting.

We were having issues with the outdoor sewer backing up into the grass.  Called Rick and his team and they responded tentatively.  The gentleman arrived on time and snaked roots that were over grown into pipes. Thank you for the fast service and suggestive advice!  Do not hesitate to use RICK LUCAS PLUMBING

I hope this review makes it to the recommended page instead of the not recommended page. It makes Yelp look dishonest when they hide good reviews as not recommended.  The not recommended reviews there look similar to the recommended page, positive.    I also hope Yelp puts this on the recommended list, so people can see more up to date reviews that are hidden.       BTW....I still love you and need you and recommend you Yelp, just would like to see more fair business practices by you.                              For my review......

I'm afraid if I tell everyone how great Miller Plumbing is, he will get too busy and I will have to wait a long time to get him back.  Mike Miller has so far, in our opinion, been professional, prompt when scheduled, there for you in an emergency, and his prices are competitive.  In addition, this guy knows about electric and plumbing, so if you need to install or remove  something involving water and electric (like my dishwasher), he knows how to shut off the water, disable the electric switch in the breaker box that goes to the appliance, AND he knows wiring as a result of so many years having to do both.  Many of the Home Depot /Lowes delivery guys don't know how to do installations, so they try their best, and often people end up with leaks and problems.  it is also a 3 hr job to take out and then install a new dishwasher.  Home Depot quoted me $70 for installation, which sounded low.  it was.  Mike says the whole job for him would be $285 including new valve, for three hours work, which is competitive.  Home Depot and Lowes tell you $70 for the install, then they arrive, and tell you that you don't have the right part needed to do the install, and that a plumber will have to come and cut a few pipes, and add a new cut off valve.  This is so the hard/dangerous job is done for them.  also, the delivery/install guys arrived at 8 a.m. And as they were leaving at 8:15, I heard one guy on the phone with the scheduler, complaining that he had twelve more deliveries, with a few of them being installs.  So, it appears they do the you don't have the right setup and parts thing to lessen their schedule.     Several people have reported this problem recently in our area.   Apparently this is to buy them time, especially since three hours will eat up their time.    So you end up paying a plumber, and then supposedly they come back another day to finish the $70 job.  I have heard that often, they never even come back, and service doesn't return calls for help to finish job.  We shall see....they are supposed to call tomorrow afternoon with the time to come back to install the next day after Mike has been here.  I am probably stupid letting them come back to save $100, but this month, I have to do it.  All the hassle with Home Depot and Lowes is not worth it.  Better to call Mike to do the whole job well and at a competitive price for a plumber who knows electric. He is also nice, courteous, and a perfectionist and we have used him successfully 4 times for very different problems.  Even my parents are thrilled with Miller Plumbing.  Great...now I've said too much....never could keep a good thing to myself.

UPDATE: 1 Month Later....changed my mind about letting Home Depot do the job.  Decided Mike was the guy, he came, did the whole thing in 3 hrs with his assistant, cleaned up totally and took away old dishwasher all for the price quoted.  I just didn't want to deal with plumbing problems down the line because I wanted to save a hundred bucks.  All is running well now, thanks to Mike!

We had a water leak for over a month that was continually getting worse. The landlord sent another plumbing company who replaced the water heater but the leak didn't stop. Two other people came and couldn't solve it.  John Neill came out and found the leak within 2 hours, was back the next morning with a saw to cut the floor open and had it fixed within two hours!  Highly recommended. Super professional, respectful, knowledgeable and A+++ service.

We just bought our house and had water back up into the house from the sewer system. We were stressed because we hadn't even been in the house a month. I found Valdel plumbing on  Angj's list. We couldn't be happier with them. They were very nice, knowledgeable and professional. They needed to dig a path in the front yard and replace the piping due to root intrusion. They did the job quickly and put all the dirt back. We will recommend them to anyone that needs any plumbing needs.

Call them because my toilet was overflowing said that they would be a very soon never got any Cole no one ever

My sole toilet stopped working on a late Saturday night. They were the only  one to respond at all to the request that night and quickly to boot. Had  me send a photo first to give me an estimate and told me they could be there within the hour. I okayed the estimate and they were out. Another 35 minutes later, all fixed, back in place, parts fully replaced- works perfectly now.  Another contractor I spoke to the next day who had called me back acknowledged that I got a great price for that midnight weekend repair response. I can endorse them totally.

I want to thank Chris Williams for what he did for my wife and I today.  We were watching water seep into our house from a pipe outside.  I called several plumbers and everyone told me they could not help because they were booked solid.  When I spoke to the nice young lady at Williams Precision Plumbing (sorry, I didn't remember her name), she told me they too were booked solid.  However, she sounded truly sorry to tell me that, so I felt comfortable asking her if she could recommend someone who might be able to help.  She agreed. Within a minute or so, Chris Williams got on the phone and calmly asked me to explain what was going on. After listening to my explanation, he suggested that I text him some pictures of the outdoor pipe I was speaking about, which I did. Within 5 minutes, he told me that the reason the shutting off of the main water valve in the house didn't help, was because this was an irrigation pipe. He told me to trace the pipe back into the house and find another valve that would control the irrigation system.  He did all of this, while calmly apologizing that he couldn't come by right away because they were involved in a major job where an inspector was present. I followed Chris' advice and within 5 minutes was able to identify the correct shutoff valve and the water finally stopped running. In an age where many will not go out of their way to offer help unless they are directly profiting from their assistance, Chris offered help because he is a true professional and a very decent guy.  You can rest assured, the next time we need a plumber, Chris will be the first person I call.

Mike is great. We just moved into a new home in South Philly and had a bunch of stuff from our inspection list that we needed to have taken care of. First was the HVAC condensation not draining properly. He came by the next day to build out the appropriate fix for it. Really quick and explained what he did in detail.

He also talked us through some of the other stuff on our list and look forward to calling him up again to take care of it.

Update: I appreciate Curt for addressing our issue.

Our water heater was broken and we got a fair quote from this business.  We are happy with the service.

It's never good when you have a plumbing issue at 4pm on a Thursday. After calling a ton of folks and not hearing back from anyone and searching emergency plumbing Philly I stumbled upon Vinko plumbing and now have a new plumber in Kevin! He was very responsive, did the work thoroughly, walked me through what was wrong, what he could fix now, and what we should do later, and was an all around nice guy. Highly recommend him for your plumbing needs!
