John D Plumbing

John was great and came the next day after our call to him to fix our water heater, he also fixed a leaky kitchen faucet and a toilet that wasn't working quite right. He was fast, professional and friendly. His prices were fair and straight forward. We will definitely use him again and recommend him to anyone needing some help with a plumbing issue.

This is the second time I've used John D Plumbing for his services. The first time was to fix our toilet that had a problem with flushing. The second one was to replace our over 10 years old water heater that was leaking. He gave me a quote that I accepted and quickly installed the new water heater. Before fixing or replacing our plumbing problems, he explained everything on what was wrong and what needs to be done. I always get a quick response from John D Plumbing and both jobs were completed within the same days I called. My family is very satisfied with his services well done.

We woke up on Sunday morning to a leaking water heater. We contacted a couple of people and John was the first to respond. Not only this but his price was a bit more reasonable than the other person who eventually responded. We are so thankful that we found John. He quickly fit us in on the same day, and installed a new water heater. If I could do it all over again I would not change a thing. John is honest and friendly and reliable and had all the tools to install a perfect new heater. Thank you, John!

At 3:30pm today, we called John D for an urgent repair to a bathroom faucet feed valve that had failed and caused flooding. Within about an hour, he was on site. This was pretty amazing, considering it was late on a Friday. We were happy for his responsiveness. Not only that, he charged us his regular rate rather than charging any urgent service rates. He was polite and very reasonable. We plan on using his services again for our future plumbing needs. Five stars for our experience today.

We had a badly installed garbage disposal, and it started to leak, I am so glad we found John, he fixed our problem the same day, will definitely be saving his contact information and will be using him for any future fixes or work that needs to be done.  Great guy too.

HONEST, reasonable price.  I highly recommend John for all your plumbing needs.  I move hired him several times over the years, and I'm always pleased with the quality of his work.

My water heater hose sprung a leak, during the snowy days. John was prompt and fit me into his schedule within 2 hours of contacting him! My hero!
I would highly recommend him, and would definitely use him for future needs! Thank you John!!

I had an emergency with leaking valves and faucet in a new house I purchased. I could not stop the hot water from running without turning off the entire house. I called John, and he was here in less than an hour and made the repairs. His prices were very fair and competitive. I highly recommend him.

I called the phone number provided, and there's a voice message that provides a cell number to text.  I sent a text with photos, and my address.  I then receive a response:  Sorry I do not work on condos
What?
Are you freaking kidding me!
What the hell difference does it make if it's a condo or a house?  
A bathroom vanity is a bathroom vanity.  Won't ever call again, and I am in the process of selling the condo and buying a house.

We had a leak in our bathroom and John said it was probably from the big rains we had a couple days before.  We haven't had any leaks since.  Appreciate his honesty and knowledge.

John came out to our house after hours to fix a water leak that had left us with out any water. The leak was tricky to find and access but John was diligent about trouble shooting the problem until he could find the least invasive solution to fix it. As he was fixing the problem he suggested and then implemented a solution that improved the overall design of the plumbing system. Now our house shutoff valve is more effective and easy to access. John also took time to explain what he was doing and offered options that were clear and helpful. I am very happy with John's prompt expert work and will definitely call him whenever I need a plumber in the future.

John answered first call and came next day to troubleshoot a slow water line that was caused by sediment. He was quick, thorough, courteous and fixed the problem. I would definitely call him again.

First person I called after seeing online reviews for local plumbers.  Reviews were not incorrect.  John answered my call right away, came over within 20 min of my call and replaced a valve for me that I needed taken care of  before Home Depot would install my new dishwasher.  Very satisfied & would highly recommend.  Price was very reasonable considering speed of service & completion! Give John a call, he is fair and will help you out!

Sent John a text and he was able to come out to meet us within 20 minutes.  Sent him a picture and he had everything he needed to fix our broken shower faucet.  Very friendly, professional and did a great job fixing our issue.  Definitely going to reach out to him the next time we need a plumber.

Excellent communication while on call for the weekend.  Took a quick photo and he reviewed it to ensure that he could fix the leak.  Outstanding service highly recommended.

So the valves had to be replaced. John came out promptly after the weekend and replaced both supply (cold & hot) in about 30 mins (most the time was isolating water and draining not much you can rush there).  Both are now good brass valves that are solid.  Super happy with the workmanship and customer service.  Will use John's services for any future work.

3/22/20 - future work happened.  Again prompt at texting me back and planning ahead.  Replaced valve on the wall for a toilet that had basically broken down into nothing on the inside.  Came out and was quick and expedient.  Great work!

To update: John evidently saw our review above. He texted my husband for our address, cut us a refund check for the $150, and then later texted my husband, 'What about that review?'. The refund for the work that wasn't fixed is appreciated.

We called on Sunday night and he arrived the next morning as promised to fix an aged toilet shutoff valve that wouldnt shut off completely.
Recommended.

John took my call personally and was over within a half hour to address my leaky kitchen sink.  Upon inspection, he needed to fix some other parts attaching to the garbage disposal to prevent future leaking, and described to me why this was necessary.  He had all the parts and tools he needed to complete the job.  He was polite, prompt, worked quickly and drama free.  Price was within tolerances, considering he had everything he needed in one trip.

This is our 2nd time using John D Plumbing and he does a fantastic job. While some plumbers take days to return a call, John is always prompt in his response and very flexible with his schedule- was able to see us and fix everything the next morning.

He arrived on time, is friendly, professional and is easy to contact-- I was able to text him several pictures of my problem so he could get an idea of what the issue was and what needed to be done. He is also very reasonably priced.

An easy 5 stars. Highly recommended!

About seven years ago subcontractors replacing my toilet said I needed a new flange.  (They broke the flange BTW.)  I contacted John D and told him I needed a new flange.  He asked me to send him a picture of the damage.  Instead of charging me many thousands of dollars, and ripping up a roof to install a new flange, he said he could repair it.  

John D  repaired the flange and installed the toilet.  Since that time, my husband and I have used John to install additional toilets, sinks, outside outlets, replace faucets, etc.  (My husband and I have been married 5 years so had our own individual houses that we updated, then bought a house together.)

When you find an honest, knowledgeable plumber you keep him!

Woke up to a busted pipe leaking water into our garage. Got in touch with John and he was at our within a couple hours. The repair was done quickly (and expertly) at a reasonable cost. Will definitely seek out his services again.

Wow! Fantastic guy! I called this morning at 9.... on a Sunday, smack dab in the middle of Memorial Day weekend... with a burst pipe in my laundry room. DAMN. I am searching Yelp for an emergency plumber - and called this fellow. Someone actually answered the phone. He was at my house within the hour, and finished the job with in an hour and a half. Holy smokes! Leak fixed, and he was on his way. Price was completely fair and even with double time because of the day and holiday weekend I gladly paid it!

I will be calling John again to finish up a couple other trouble spots. He was on his way to rescue another house. Believe all the 5 star posts, he is good. (The single star reviews were people who refused to get a permit)

This guy is an absolute psychopath.  We ended up calling the police and filing a police report after he started threatening my family when we asked him to leave our home.  My husband informed me he was calling a local plumber so we could get a quote on replacing the pipes that were shaking in the wall.  We informed our babysitter he'd be coming and I would swing by on my lunch break from the hospital.  I was 10 minutes late and came home to some Russian guy screaming at me $150! $150 you pay now!...I could only assume the stranger screaming at me in my own home, never once telling me who he was, was actually the plumber based on the van he parked in our drive way (instead of on the road which have been the professional thing to do and not block our cars in our driveway).  I calmly asked if he was the plumber and stated I don't know what he's referring to.  Never once even said his name, just continued yelling so I asked him to Clarify and asked again are you the plumber? He calmed down for a split second, seemed completely oblivious that both of my babies, 2 years old and 4 months old, were screaming in their bedroom because he was yelling in our home and scaring them.  I again asked him to call down and refer to what he was shouting about.  Through his think accent I was able to decipher he decided upon himself that we needed to replace our really nice toilet and that he didn't want to deal with the hassle of ordering parts instead.  When I said it was a new toilet and what would the cost difference would be for a new toilet versus new parts he said it would be a lot more.  When I asked how much more to install he parts he said he didn't know because he couldnt figure out what brand the toilet was (huh?).  He then explained that the rattling pipes could be anywhere and he would have to rip up all the walls to find the rattling ones.  I told him it sounded like two separate issues and he agreed.  So I asked him if he could write us up a quote to replace the toilet versus replacing the parts and that we'd consider our options. He said he didn't know the parts so I told him when my husband got home (which I later found out he started a shouting match with my husband demanding he pay him $150 for wasting his time at our house hence the irrational screaming at me to pay him $150) again the guy never once even said he was a plumber, no professional attire, no business card nothing.  I felt incredibly uncomfortable the entire time and eventually convinced him to leave our house stating my husband would figure out the part names.  He then to his car as I got in to my car to get back to the hospital.  Then out of no where starts shouting waste of my time! You pay me now! You're a waste of my time!!! Demanding that I sign his invoice.  when I asked what's this for? He continued to scream wasting my time! Wasting my time! When I calmly explained I would never say that to a patient of mine, that they were a waste of time.  I then mentioned how unprofessional that was and I asked him to leave.  He then in a very threatening manner crumbled the invoice and ripped up my Windshield wiper of my car as I was backing out of our driveway (did I mention it was down pouring as this psychopath went ballistic)...should I started shouting get away from my car! And continued to back out of the driveway.   I proceeded to call my husband as he aggressively started charging towards my front door where my babysitter and two children were inside so I started screaming as loud as I could get the fk' away from my house! Leave now we are calling the police then I called our babysitter who raced to lock the door.  We have never felt so scared in our lives:  from the driveway I was shaking in my car looking at someone clearly off medication have a melt down screaming we owed him for wasting his time.  Needless to say he saw me calling the police and our neighbors all coming out so he left.  The police and I reviewed the security cams, confirming he had been there a total of 36 minutes when he was demanding for an hour of pay, unbelievable

Had a leaking valve connected to our bathroom faucet. Called at 8:45am and he was at our door at 10:30am same day.  He got right to work and replaced both cheap valves within the hour for a very reasonable cost.

I'm not sure what the other reviews are talking about in regards to him wasting time with a lot of talking as we didn't have that experience at all.

Will definitely be saving his contact information and will be using him for any future fixes or work that needs to be done.

Called the company to come investigate a shaking of pipes in our walls. After being in the house for about 30 minutes and said that a valve needed to be replaced in our toilet, that the toilet was very particular as the part would be, and that it would be cheaper if we replaced the toilet. He then indicated that it wouldn't completely solve the problem, that there were probably some pipes not strapped in the walls or crawl space, and that he wasn't going on a wild goose chase to find out where they are. I told him it sounded like I needed to investigate the pipes when the noise happened again to narrow down where it was, and get the toilet replaced if we decided to do so. For this 30 minutes of time he told me it would be $150 for his time, which I found steep, but agreed to pay if he sent me the invoice (I was out of town at the time.)
THEN the real problems began. My wife had just arrived home from the hospital, and he began waving the invoice and nearly breaking off a windshield wiper to jam the invoice on our car, even though I gave no indication we wouldn't pay it. As a father and husband, it was terrifying to hear my wife call me and explain that we had a psycho at our house demanding $150, with our 2 daughters under 2 years old in the house. They had been sleeping, but were now awake screaming at the top of their lungs, and our caregiver was trying to calm them down, because he was walking around the house and in the front yard demanding $150 payment now for wasting his time, when again, I gave no indication we weren't going to pay it. I am worried that he has a mental condition and knows where we live, so I filed a police report.

I had a leak spring up in a hot water pipe and was looking to get someone to fix it as quickly as possible. After calling several plumbers it looked like I was going to have to wait 1 week before I could get a plumber to the house. I contacted John and he was at the house within 30 minutes and had it fixed 30 minutes after he arrived. The price was reasonable and response was awesome. I would not hesitate to use him again.

John was great! He worked fast, replacing a leaky toilette valve and repairing/replacing our sink valves and faucet.  He also gave me really good advice on existing plumbing.  Would highly recommend him.

John is terrific. He installed: a new garbage disposal;  kitchen faucet; soap dispenser; and a new insta hot (that showed up w/missing parts, which required great creativity to create a work around). Great install and it looks fantastic. While he was here, he fixed a powder room sink and a toilet! John is a fantastic plumber. He showed up on time, and w/a truck load of parts to ensure that he could complete the job. Timely, reliable, reasonable price, and a very nice man. Highest recommendation. He fixed our whole house for now, but when the next thing fails, and since the house is 60 years old, it will, John will be my first and only call.

Fantastic! Would use again definitely! Unclogged kitchen  sink that ended up requiring an 18 foot exploration to find clog. John was efficient, clean, delightful to talk with and quick to reply. Didn't get irritated with my questions and watching. (I like to see what's happening). He was even nice to the kids.

John is very helpful he helped me during an emergency as I tried to replace a shower faucet I made a mistake and literally snapped the brass valve off so ether we have no water in the house or find someone fast.  Called JD Plumming as he was listed on google spoke to John told him my issue and he came within an hour to fix the issue replace faucet valve and installed new shower faucet just in time for kids to come home and shower.   I think he prefers emergency calls because he wants to help people in need as most people can't live without water very long now a days.  A great guy and a master Plummer so next time I have a Plumming issue or a Plumming job he will be the first person I call. A++

This our second time using John and we highly recommend.  John is professional, quick, and easy.  Our shower got stuck on (full) and we called John.  John answered immediately, asked us to text him a pic of the piping, then quoted a flat fee and showed up (in a mask) 20 mins later.  The job took about 45 mins and it now works perfectly.  He's our first call going forward

John came the same day I texted, worked quickly and did an excellent job. He was also very affordable and friendly. I got a new sink that  needed to be reattached along with the faucet, garbage disposal and washing machine and he was able to reconfigure the piping without cutting into the wall (like I thought would need to happen). Highly recommend!

John D was great!  My garbage disposal had jammed and sink was clogged, and I did all the things I could do, but to no avail.  I initially called a company through Angie's List which came out and quoted me a ridiculous price for the job.  I then found John D who came out right away and fixed it quickly at a very reasonable price.  He was very professional, and I was grateful that he could come on such short notice.

After discovering a leak under our sink, John D Plumbing responded quickly and diagnosed our problem immediately.  He referred us to a local vendor for a new kitchen faucet and saved us over $200 through the use of his contractor's discount there.  He installed the new faucet in approximately 30 minutes expertly.  Punctual, responsive and very easy to communicate with via text.  House call fee was reasonably priced as well!  5 star service for sure!!!!!!

Our kitchen sink pipe broke and another plumbing company said they were scheduling 2-3 weeks out.  John D Plumbing was able to come out in ~15 minutes and fix the issue.  Thank you for the prompt response!

We had a leak start in our kitchen drain pipe. Called a bunch of places, they were all two to three weeks out. Called John, he came over the next afternoon, fixed the leak for a very reasonable price. Yes, he likes to talk a lot and tells some wild stories, but he's a great plumber, good prices, and super quick for urgent issues so no complaints from me!

John was amazing! He came right over to assess our issue when we had no hot water. He found the problem, explained everything clearly and did exactly as he said he would. Reasonable rates and fast! John will be the go to guy for all our future plumbing needs.

My husband was replacing our bathroom faucet when the hot water valve decided to not turn off. We called John D Plumbing at 8:45pm and he showed up within 20 minutes. He replaced our valves and even finished installing the new faucet for us. He did a great job! We plan on having him back next week to install our shower/tub faucet.

Highly recommend John D.  He showed up as agreed, fixed my clogged kitchen sink and was neat/tidy in doing so.  Also my total bill came in under what was the initial quote.   Would use him again.

Great experience with John. Called him and he showed up an hour later and fixed a problem I had been working on all day in about 40 minutes. Very friendly and I paid about a third less than I was expecting. I would absolutely call him again if I need plumbing done.

John D just left my home. It is shortly before noon. I called him after 5 pm yesterday. One toilet completely clogged, other 2 wouldn't stop running.
He was courteous, worked efficiently, fixed the clog, and replaced 2 valves. Cost was reasonable. I would definitely recommend.
Oh yeah... my dog loved him.

We accidentally drilled a hole through a water pipe while doing a laundry room remodel. We called literally every plumbing business in the area but everyone was booked out till the end of the week. Luckily, we found John through the next door app and he quickly called us within 45 minutes and came ASAP to fix our issue! Talk about a life saver!! He's saved into our phone book if we ever have another plumbing issue. Thanks John!

We have used John on 2 occasions, which speaks volumes because after he came the first time when we first moved into our home, on the day before a holiday, he did such a great job, at a reasonable rate, and was polite and professional, it was easy to choose who would install our new toilet, and who will install our new kitchen sink in the future.
On his second visit over a year later, John replaced our toilet, which he provided great advice on which would work best for us prior to purchasing it.  Due to no fault of his, there was as small leak in the tank, which he returned to replace the next day even with his busy schedule.

You know how you always dread having to look for fair, talented, trusted and professional trade people, like electricians and plumbers?  Look no further, John is that plumber.

I texted John after looking up Plumber Portland and finding him on Yelp. I described the problem we were having. I was sure it was going to involve digging up our entire basement bathroom. John recommended we try a simple solution. I argued a bit thinking it couldn't possibly be that easy of a fix. It was!  His idea completely fixed the problem!  He could have gouged us. He could have come over and fixed it himself in 10 minutes and charged us for the service, but he did not. He genuinely helped us. With free advice. When we actually need a plumber to come, we will definitely be calling John!

For some reason in today's day and age this company thinks they can decide they want to work for and who they don't. In America we call that discrimination.

John was awesome. Came right away and replaced our shower cartridge.  Very efficient, friendly, professional.  Will definitely keep his contact info for future use.  Thanks John

We have used John D Plumbing on 2 occasions and both have been just before a major holiday when guests are to arrive to stay with us for a few days. On both occasions, he had proved to be a reliable, skilled and trusted plumber. He made himself available in spite of his busy schedule and holiday season, he provided advice and fixed our plumbing issues with efficiency and his rates are reasonable.

I always dread looking for a professional trade people such as electricians, mechanics and plumbers because you never know who you will meet /get in spite of the reviews. We are lucky to have found John as he is definitely skilled, but most importantly he is trustworthy. He likes people and he likes to help. In a service oriented trade, one not only need to be talented in what he/she does, but they need to want and enjoy helping people. There is that saying that in your lifetime, you need a good accountant, a good lawyer and a good mechanic... Well, John D is one that I will add on this as the plumber to call when in need. Call him for your plumbing needs and,  you will know what I am talking about.

I have frozen pipes and called 12 or so different plumbers,  John got back to me first, and gave me some great tips over the phone to unfreeze the pipes.  I have not actually tried any of them yet and don't know if they work, but the fact that John was willing to spend 10 minutes on the phone with me at such a busy time for FREE speaks volumes for his integrity as a businessman and his willingness to provide great customer service.  He's got my future business, for sure!

BTW - this happened on a holiday!

My handle to my shower had broken off, I was in desperate mode looking for someone reliable and not going to charge an arm and leg to fix. John was absolutely amazing. I can't say enough good about his work, attitude and efficacy. I will recommend him to anyone looking for a plumber.

Keep up the great work John! Thank you!

Called to get an estimate on fixing sink and dishwasher and was told he doesn't do jobs in mobile homes due to not having mobile home plumbing parts.  I called The Plumbers, they came out same day within 30 minutes and fixed my dishwasher and sink in 15 minutes. Turned out had nothing to do with the pipes but was a couple of bad stoppers. Plumber said any apprentice plumber could have fixed this. If you want the job done, call The Plumbers.

We called John to see if he could hook up our new sinks and one disposal two days before Thanksgiving. He was there the next day, did the work quickly and at a great rate. I would highly recommend him!!

John texted me he was in my driveway. Ok I do have a doorbell but fine.
He was in and out in 20 minutes. He turned off the water to two sinks (replacing 2 bath vanities) to another sink that needs a new faucet to tightening a faucet and soap dispenser it was $185.00. He was nice and polite but required me to assist him in the small repairs. Would not recommend him.

I've found my new plumber. John showed up on time, was polite and personable (not to mention an interesting human being!) and not only fixed my leaking pipe but added a needed clean-out to bring it up to code.  His pricing was reasonable and I will definitely be calling him for future plumbing needs.

I don't understand how this guy has any reviews let alone good ones. We called John to get a bid for a job and he was hours late and arrived after a call from his wife. He then emailed us at 9:20 pm to let us know he would be there the next day at 9am. We never made any arrangements and since it snowed this week and it was only the weekend, we know he didn't pull a permit before coming to do the job.

Nonetheless, he showed up at 9am and was upset because there was ice in
our driveway. Again, it had snowed and schools were closed, but John didn't know about it!  He asked us to move our cars and I said I would move mine. When my wife said she hadn't moved her car in a few days due to the weather, his first response was,ok do it yourself and walked away. Not really understanding what had just happened, I walked outside to see why he was so upset and he just went on a tirade about how it was the law to clear my driveway (eventhough there were many cleared paths to walk on), and that since he had two vans he had to park
both in the driveway. Then, to make matters worse, his van got stuck in the street as he tried to leave and he blamed me for not telling him that there was ice on the road. My response was,apparently the city doesn't know that it is the law to clear the streets either.

Eventually another van showed up and when I tried to approach it, John jumped out of the car and blocked me with his arm so that I couldn't talk to his colleague.  
That van got stuck in the street too.

Moral of the story:  Don't tell people the laws of homeownership if you don't know the laws of nature. And if you want to earn a living, don't blow your top on potential customers. Volatile and non-permitted work is not what you want to pay for.

John D is amazing!  Very nice, personable and knows his stuff.  We needed three toilets in my house replaced and he was helpful with all the questions we had and we were able to get on his schedule the day we asked for.  He showed up on time, worked quickly, did a great job and was a pleasure to do business with. I'd happily hire him back for any future plumbing needs.
Also he sells amazing honey! yum!

Terribly unreliable.  Had an appointment and he never showed nor sent me an update. In the evening he sent a text saying he had texted the wrong number about the time he was supposed to be here. However, that doesn't make any sense because I had texted him mid-day asking for an update so he had my number. Today, I got a completely different story from him saying the job he worked on before mine took longer than expected. Unfortuantely, he has become unreliable.

I was trying to help a friend out with a plumbing project, and I managed to crack a pipe in the wall, which was 20 years old and made out of cheap plastic. There was an immediate flood in the house and everyone went into emergency mode. One of my jobs was to get a plumber, and I managed to find John D.
He immediately left home, even though it was nearly 5 PM, and drove right over. He was quick, thorough, professional, and relatively inexpensive considering it was an after hours emergency.
A true pro and a gentleman.
Now to deal with insurance.

Called John D Plumbing based on the reviews on Yelp, and voice message said to send a text message. I did, but didn't get any reply. I think Portland plumbers are very busy and maybe have more work than they can handle. The other plumbers I contacted that were booked way out and couldn't help me returned my call (or returned my text) and gave me a couple other plumbers to try. I did eventually find someone, but I still need to wait a week, which is a long time to go without a kitchen sink!

John D is AWESOME! I called this morning, got voicemail but with a number to text. I texted, he replied within 30 seconds asking if I was free immediately! I high tailed it home, he snaked my drain, and less than 30 minutes later everything was taken care of. I happened to call another plumber before I saw John's listing and left them a message...they still haven't called me back ;) John will forever be my go to plumber.

Excellent and prompt same day service at a reasonable price. My kitchen sink was clogged up and needed a good snaking. John promptly answered the phone, and came within 2 hours. About an hour on the job, he fixed the blockage, identified a couple of other issues, fixed those as well and all was well with the world. Highly recommended!

Tells endless stories to just take up your time and will charge you for it. Spent $500 and nothing was fixed, and he actually made the problem worse, then claimed he did a good job when I complained. Also told me he charges  by the minute, so if it takes him time to drive and walk into your house he will charge. Will NEVER use again or recommend. Stay far away.

This is the second time I have used John D Plumbing. The first was two years ago to replace a garbage disposal in a rental I own. This time was to replace two toilets in same rental. John provided the units, installed them, and hauled away the old ones. The job was done on time, budget (very reasonable), and of the highest quality. I highly recommend!!

Woke up this morning to a leaky toilet.  Called compared ratings on Yelp and started making calls.  To be honest John D was the 2nd call that I made, and I am glad that the first one didn't answer the phone.  John D not only answered but was able to come out within 30 minutes.  He quickly took care of the issue, charged a reasonable rate and was polite and courteous.  

Definitely deserves his 5 star rating.

I believe in good and trusting business relationships, until i dont. Please dont come to my house, talk for at least 45 minutes, then charge for1.5 hr  labor, parts $50.00. Total bill $295.00, felt taken advantage of. Sad

I called two other plumbers and got answering machines and no call-back, I called John, he troubleshot my disposal problem over the phone in about 15 seconds. Problem solved, no charge, easy peasy! I can't say much about quality of craftsmanship or anything like that, but customer service? Top marks! Thanks John!

We had a leak in a drain pipe under our kitchen sink with water dripping through the ceiling of the basement laundry room below the kitchen

The first plumbing company I contacted replied quickly, but would be unable to come out for at least 8 days. We would have been unable to use the kitchen sink or dishwasher

John responded quickly in a text message and was able to come out that same day.  He quickly determined what the problem was. It was necessary to cut out part of the soggy ceiling to expose a copper drain pipe (over 50 years old) with 3 small holes on one side that had been leaking.

Leaky pipe removed, replaced with new pipe.
And now we are good to go.

Fast efficient and friendly!

I had some glass that got jammed in my garbage disposal and based off the positive reviews decided to call. Less than 24 hours John was out here on the earlier side of the appointment, tools in hand! It took him less than 15 minutes to fix the disposal and had everything all cleaned up. I'd highly recommend his services to anyone in need of a reliable and quick plumber!

I very strongly recommend John D.  I needed some plumbing work done, and when I called him to explain the issue, he was very easy to talk to.  He is a very nice man.  He installed a water pressure regulator and an expansion tank.  He did an excellent job and was available to answer a couple of questions I had after he quickly and efficiently completed the job.   I will definitely hire him again when I need plumbing services in the future.

John D Plumbing was great. He helped us out on short notice and was prompt, professional, and thorough. Highly recommended.

I have used John D twice. Both times he was prompt, professional, and friendly. He did great work and I highly recommend him.

It looks like I'm simply adding on to what others have already stated, but when I needed some quick help (leaking pipe in basement) John (a) quickly responded, (b) made it out far faster than anyone else - two days, when others told me 2 weeks, and (c) actually arrived EARLIER than his scheduled weekend appointment.

He took the time to explain what went wrong (damaged original copper pipe), first tried a less expensive fix, and then eventually went way beyond my pay-grade by welding a new piece of pipe.

His calm and pleasant demeanor helped my less-than-calm (my basement is going to be flooded out!) feelings. I'm hoping I don't need his services in the future, but at least know who I can call if I do.

There's a reason for all the 5 star reviews - he's great to work with.

We had a fairly simple job, we just wanted to replace an old toilet with a jetted one. We were going to host some family and we didn't want everyone to deal with the frequent clogging.

Having work done in your home is rarely an easy and straightforward experience. It was absolutely in this case. He installed the toilet, removed the old one, and helped us understand some important details about the new flush mechanisms. That was it, he was then off and on his way.

No fan fare. No finding 10 other things that need to be fixed. No extra charges. Just honest & good work at a fair price.

Took me awhile to find him but he's our plumber. Excellent.

He couldn't be bothered to reply to a request for a bid. How do these people stay in business?

John is a lovely guy who does great work and stands by it. He fixed my garbage disposal recently and when I needed some further work on the same fixture he came out right away! He's very dependable and charges a fair rate.

I called John on July 23, 2018 to repair a toilet in our home and he came the very next day.  He was able to replace the parts that needed replacing, quickly and efficiently.  I would definitely use John in the future.

Well, showed up in about a half hour, quickly assessed the problem (plugged kitchen sink) and hauled in his equipment to clean it out. Plug was about 40 feet from the sink and took some effort to clear, brought out the stuff that was mostly egg shells and vegetable crud.  Nice guy, did a good job and at a fair price. Most important, he got back to us quickly. Warning: he's from Transylvania.

We sprung a leak when we were replacing the vinyl floor with tiles. The vinyl was glued onto a subfloor on top of the house's subfloor. When we pulled up the first layer of subfloor, one of the nails we pulled up was actually nailed into the pipe. John actually found another part of the pipe where a nail nearly punctured it, because the pipe was almost touching the subfloor. He was very knowledgeable and got the job done well! Would definitely use him again if the need arises, but hopefully there won't be another for a while.

I sent a text message to the owner's cell phone as directed by their voicemail. I was looking for pricing and availability information and explained this over text. He asked me to send pictures so I did and then asked for my address. I sent him the neighborhood and asked again for pricing and availability for the job. I didn't receive a response so I called and on the phone he again asked for my address. I explained that I was looking for pricing and availability before sharing my address. He then explained that if I wasn't willing to share my address that I obviously don't trust him  and we shouldn't work together and when I tried to explain that I wasn't meaning to offend him, he cut me off by saying he couldn't talk anymore and hung up. This was disappointing given the other reviews were so positive.

John is fantastic - I wanted to replace 2 water heaters and he walked me through entire process via text, including quote. One week later one part of pipe had small drip leak and he promptly came over to tighten and it was fixed. If you want to work with him, be patient and be ready to send lots of pictures to help him understand your needs. Every situation is different and more info helps him get you answers quicker. Also I think he is a one man team, so give time for him to respond between jobs.

I had a hot water heater leaking all over my garage.  John came highly recommended on Next Door.  I called him at 8am explained I had no water. He was at my house by 9:45am, replaced the water heater and was done by noon reasonably price, professional. Wont go anywhere else.

Great work and prompt service.  John worked with my schedule, was very professional and educated me about what was best for my home.  Highly recommended!

John D was extraordinary! He came out right away, was kind, fair, and solved my problem efficiently. I feel comforted to cal him my plumber!

I was so happy to find a plumber who was not booked up for days or weeks! So many plumbing problems are small jobs, but important to the person who needs their broken toilet to work again. John was able to come out the very next morning after our phone call and immediately diagnosed the problem and replaced the broken parts. He is very personable and easy to talk to - you can always learn something by watching, too. Be prepared with cash or checks - he does not take credit cards.

John D Plumbing is a go to business if you have plumbing issues.  I called on a Wednesday and he was able to fit me in for a repair the following day.  He asked a few questions about the age of the house so he would have the right parts to do the job.
He called before showing up within the time frame the appointment was scheduled, which was extremely helpful since my schedule can be hectic.
The work he preformed was done quickly and professionally.  His prices are also extremely reasonable.
I will definitely use this business again if/when the need arises and once again recommend him to anyone in need from an honest polite plumber.

No answer, and recording asking to text a cell number is so garbled that I could not get the number.  I guess they do not want business enough to have a decent way to contact them.

John was very quick to respond.  Had a leak in the master bath and he was there the next day and replaced the leaky valve. Interesting was that he did not overcharge for a immediate service needed.

John is fantastic. Prompt, responsive, skilled, & inexpensive. Instead of looking for ways to over charge, he makes suggestions to save you money. My only hesitation in posting this review is that I don't want to share him.

John does great work! When I needed a ice maker water line relocated to allow for a dishwasher install, he devised a clever work around that saved us hundreds of dollars! Rather than reroute get the line under the house, he routed out the particle board under the dishwasher to allow the new dishwasher frame to rest on the floor. I highly recommend John! I called and left messages for 3 different plumbers and John was the only one to call back!

Need a toilet replacement valve, called John, he scheduled me in the same day, arrived promptly and replaced the valve in no time.  Reasonable rates and friendly professional service.
Will be my plumber the next time something breaks.

Amazing guy! He knows his stuff. On time and works fast. Will definitely hire him again!

John expertly repaired a leaking hose bib on my lawn.  Beforehand I sent him a few photos of the problem via text message.  He set up a timeframe when he would come, texted me beforehand to confirm and then showed up as agreed.  I am impressed with John's professional communication and follow through.  I will definitely use him when another problem crops up.

John is FANTASTIC! I had a new dryer delivered and the gas connection was wrong. After calling lots of plumbers that couldn't help me until next week - John was at my house within an hour and went above and beyond. I'm giving his number to all my friends. Terrific work.

Great Plumber, has worked on 3 different jobs at my home.  Installed a utility sink and drain I messed up.  Installed a new kitchen drain and disposal that me and another contractor messed up.  Also installed new bathroom drain after snaking, this I did not mess up....I learned my lesson the first two times :-)  Hooray for John D Plumbing.

John has also installed all the kitchen plumbing on a kitchen remodel on another home too.

We had a clogged drain on the disposal side of the kitchen sink. Called a few plumbers and everyone was on vacation or closed on Thanksgiving weekend. Called John and he came out within 45 minutes of the call. We was able to diagnose and fix the problem, as well as educate us on what to fix next time we had a problem with the disposal. Would recommend to anyone who needs a quick fix on their plumbing issues!

FANTASTIC customer service & my #1 plumber from here on out!
I had a clogged kitchen sink (2 days before hosting Thanksgiving at my house) and called a couple other plumbers to see if they could fit me in and was told it would be a couple days.  That was not the case when I called John @ John D plumbing.  He said he was just heading out to a job but that he would come by on his way and fix my kitchen sink.
He Showed up quickly & went right to work.  He snaked the line & added a clean out that apparently we are suppose to have & didn't and all for a very affordable price.  
He was friendly & informed me about what we shouldn't be putting down out garbage disposal which was helpful.
This guy is my #1 call for any kind of plumbing service from here on out!

We hIghly recommend John D for his prompt, friendly and reasonable service.  He responded quickly to our request for garbage disposal repair (within the hour!) and had a new disposal on hand to replace our old rusty one.  Very tidy.  We would definitely call him again.

Let's face it.  The main things you want from a good plumber are A. Not to be ripped off B. For them to do a good job and C. Not to be ripped off.  Did I mention you don't want to be ripped off?  Well we found a great plumber in John D Plumbing.  He owns his own business and so there's no one he has to check in with before he can give you an estimate.  We recently had a crack near our water meter that was leaking lots of water.  We called another plumber and they gave an estimate of $800 dollars said it would take four hours to fix.  We thought that was high so we called John D.

The guy came out within two hours.  He sized up the job, said he knew exactly what he was facing and said it would be $200 tops.  He got right to work and was finished in about 90 minutes.  He was friendly and knowledgeable and even suggested we call the water company (which we did) to get a refund on our high water bills of late.

There is no doubt the next time we need a plumber, John D is getting our business.  Nice people, GREAT job.  I'm a very satisfied customer.

Oh by the way, the final bill was $138.  We decided to also buy him lunch.

We have used John D for plumbing repair and installation for nearly 10 years now. He's always prompt, polite, efficient, and I feel like he offers a good value. He has come to our home for big and small emergencies ranging from a clogged pipe to our water main into the house breaking, helped with remodeling jobs (installed gas lines, dishwasher, etc), and we have referred him with confidence to our friends. He's a trustworthy and honest repairman. He will offer you options and not just convince you  that you must have the most expensive option. He has also helped us find other contractors when needed (septic pumped, line drilled into the house) who were professional, reasonably priced and gave us good service.

I've read a couple of recent negative reviews here and find them quite odd. One comes from a person in another state and I have no idea why they'd feel they could rate a local tradesperson. And both reviewers have lots of negative reviews under their names and I think they may be connected as they both seem to be in the marijuana industry. I know John has his own personal opinions and may have taken a stand against working in an industry he does not support - why beat him up for that? Call the next person on the list. He did NOT give you bad service, just chose not to work for you. Just as you can choose who to hire or work for yourself.

I called John D to come fix my garbage disposal. He came that same afternoon to fix it! He did a great job and was really nice! Highly recommended!

The shower head arm broke off within the wall and the water started dripping downstairs in the dining room this morning. I called John D. and his wife, Maggie, immediately set a calm tone and took my information. Within an hour she called back and said John could make it out today. He was timely (showed up within the 20 min. she quoted) and was ready to get started. Very polite, devoted to getting the job done, and explained what he was looking for and what he was going to do. He explained that the water dripping downstairs may either be another leak or a pool of water from upstairs and he'd address that when he was done with the pipe in the shower. Within an hour he had replaced the pipe and shower head and the dripping downstairs had slowed down. He advised me on what to look for the rest of the day to determine if there was an additional leak or not. His price was very reasonable and when I couldn't find my checkbook at first, he was even going to let me send him a check later. A very fair man indeed.

John D. Plumbing will definitely get another call from our house if needed and I would recommend him to anyone who needs a plumber.

John fixed two broken shower controllers quickly and well. He is definitely the person I will call in the future!

We thought we needed to replace our kitchen sink faucet, but John offered to try to fix the leak first, which he ably and efficiently did. He saved us a lot of money and didn't earn as much as he would have had he replaced the faucet. Hooray for honesty and work well done!

John is the best plumber around! He called me right back and found the time that day to come by and take a look and fix my plumbing problem. Truly a gem of a man with all the plumbing know-how you could ask for.

John was awesome. Knows his stuff. Hard working. Reasonable rates. Helped us, on short notice, to plumb the only bathroom in our new home that didn't have a shower. Came back twice on short notice after other work had been done and unanticipated things came up. We wouldn't have been able to do this without him and his colleague who came out the final time and worked just as hard. Will definitely hire again and highly recommend. Thanks John!

Best plumber ever! Reasonably priced, reliable, and friendly. I've used him twice and my parents now use him as well. Thanks John!

John performed an expert repair on our dishwasher line a day after I requested an appointment. The line and connection had been incorrectly installed since our home was built, and John replaced both with the right parts after explaining what needed to be done and why. He also showed me how to tighten the handles on our bath faucets so I can do this myself from now on. We were really impressed with John's knowledge and skills and wouldn't hesitate to call him again for any plumbing service.

We had a plumbing emergency. Small lake developed under our kitchen sink due to clog. Based on the reviews here, I decided to text him that morning. Got a quick response and then said he would come to our place first. He was at our place within 20 minutes. He quickly addressed issue, but needed to come back to finish as he was running late for next appointment. He got issue under control before he left though. Came early next morning and fixed all the issues at a reasonable rate. Took time to explain what was going on. Seemed very knowledgeable. Very personable. Will definitely call him again if needed.

John responded promptly to my call for help with a severely plugged drain. It wasn't easy but he worked until he fixed our problem. His fee was super reasonable too. I will always use him for plumbing issues.

It was 3pm. I had dinner guests at 7. My kitchen sink was completely clogged up. I called half a dozen plumbing services. Nobody could come in such short notice. I was starting to panic. Then I called John D Plumbing. He said he was finishing a job and would come immediately after that. Within an hour a can pulled in. It was Cornell. John couldn't make it but he sent over his business colleague. Cornell did a great job. The sink was worse than I feared but he fixed it! I can't tell you how relieved I was. John D Plumbing is the one to call for all your plumbing needs!

John was on time and very professional as well as being the most interesting plumber I've ever met.  He did a great job Thanks John

John is fantastic and honest. After two other plumbers failed to fix problem with a bathtub filler John came out and fixes the issue. The other plumbers wanted to change the entire setup costing over $1000. John said that wasn't necessary and fixed it with some heavier gauge washers. That was a year ago with no more issues. He's fixed several other things since then and has always been top notch.

Thank you, YELP reviewers, for your guidance in helping me find John D Plumbing,  I texted photos of our problem to John and 2 hours later  he showed up with the right parts and deftly repaired our problems.  He's a terrific guy and his professionalism shows.  He's also a straight shooter and easy to communicate with.  Thank you John!

John replied very quickly to our need did a great job fixing the problem, and was priced and very very fairly. He cleaned up after himself and left no mess. He was very focused yet friendly and we were very pleased by his service. John D is for sure our new plumber! Thank you yelp

Had a really pleasant experience with John. He arrived at my house 1 hour after I called with a leaking garbage disposal. He was ready and had a sunny disposition. I'm not sure on the pricing part of things because I've never needed a plumber before but it seemed fair. Would definitely recommend him.

John D Plumbing solved my problem.  While house sitting in Lake Oswego I discovered a broken pipe and two under-sink leaks.  Being from out of town I only had Yelp and a couple other review sites to rely on.  Thankfully the overwhelmingly positive comments are accurate.  He came as quickly as he could; was polite and personable; provided quality workmanship; and was reasonably priced.  He even talked me out of having him fix something he explained I could easily handle myself.  That's honesty!  I would recommend to friends and family.  Great value for your money.

Found him from Yelp. Saw the good reviews. Called just before July 4th holiday.  He came July 5th replaced the outside faucet no problem. Quick and reasonable. I even bought his honey from his bees. One and done!  Will recommend him to friends and neighbors.

John was very responsive in communication.  He repaired a kitchen sink at a rental property.  The sink was leaking underneath and John did a great job of pinpointing the problem and getting it fixed efficiently and affordably.  The repair looked great!  I will call on John again for my plumbing needs.

My water was leaking under my sink in my bathroom and I needed it fixed as soon as possible. I found John D plumbing from Yelp and was hoping that I could get it done same day. I called and spoke directly with John and he was extremely friendly. He recommended I replace both valves under my sink and agreed on what I thought was a dollar amount . I might of misheard him. We set a time about an hour later and he was right on time. It wasn't John himself but someone who had worked with him for over 19 years the gentleman said . He quickly assessed the situation and fixed the problem in less than 20 mins. He then showed me where the water shutoff line was to my place in the event of an emergency. He was a very respectful and fast worker . The price again was confusing but regardless the guy was very nice and the whole process was extremely easy. Call them if you want a local business and great service

John help me troubleshoot my problem over the phone and was able to resolve it for me. He did not charge me a dime. I am extremely satisfied with my experience.

We had a clogged drain in the kitchen sink, garbage disposal. We had a most unpleasant experience with another company (Rescue Rooter) so went to YELP to look for recommendations. It was quite late in the afternoon. When we called, we were initially told he wouldn't be able to get there until the next day. However, within an hour, he called back and said he'd come immediately. He noticed that one of the problems was due to a pipe my husband had installed. No other plumber had pointed that out. He changed the pipe and did something else to route the garbage disposal drain more efficiently. He also charged $100 LESS than the company we had initially called. Although I offered to clean up after him so he could get home to his wife, he insisted on cleaning up himself and did a very thorough job. While I hope we don't have any plumbing issues in the near future, if we do, we most definitely will be calling John D.

John was very honest, charged a very reasonable price. Fixed 1 toilet and then spontaneously I asked him to check another issues I had forgotten about where our sinks hot/cold water nobs were mixed up and he fixed that quickly. Also called him recently concerned about another issue and he advised me over the phone and saved me $$.

John is a great plumber! There is nothing worse than issues during the holidays and he was able to come out the day after we called! Did not waste anytime and very reasonable! Nice guy, recommend as other reviewers have- found him on yelp!

John was on time and very good at what he does! He was availabe to come out when most others couldn't. Reasonably priced, quick to fix two issues in our home. A leaking toilet and a broken shower fixture. He had all parts with him and both issues were fixed within an hours time. I would definitely reccomend.

Third time I've used John D Plumbing. Each time has been great and they've been able to come the same day. And each time they have been able to do the repair quickly. Plus they offer very reasonable rates.

Efficient, friendly and fair. I had a quick job and he was out the same day, with a fix that took under an hour and was done well and not with cheap parts. I will definitely call him again.

We called John this morning due to a water line break in our side yard, and saw all the great reviews on Yelp.  We couldn't have been happier with the service that he provided.  He was out within 45 min of our phone call to him, did wonderful work and was VERY reasonable.  We will be calling John D. the next time that we need a plumber.

Prompt response and service. Very friendly and professional man. We had broken glass in garbage disposal and he took care of everything the very next day. Highly recommend him.

Great guy - always available to help us out of our plumbing emergencies and at a fair price. I've already recommended John to multiple friends, who have also been pleased with his work. Highly recommend!

John replaced the fittings under our sinks and toilets and replaced the handles for our washing machine water shut-off valves.
He was courteous, arrived on time, tidy, and professional.
What he charged us was very reasonable and we intend to call him back again in the near future.
Our neighbor had a bad leak and called john, that's how we knew about him.

Awesome. We clogged our drain bad cleaning up after Christmas parties and being do it your selfers, we tried for a week to unclog it ourselves. New Year's Eve we needed to do dishes so we called up John D and he came over half an hour later. 20 minutes after he got here it was working better than I can ever remember it working before. And it cost less than all the supplies we bought trying to fix it ourselves. If draino doesn't do it, call him up immediately. You will not be sorry.
