My technician, Josh, was fantastic. He brought 20 years of experience to the project and knew what risks could also be at play just by looking at the fixtures in the bathroom of my Victorian-era home. My father is starting to have some memory issues and kept asking Josh the same questions, but he was incredibly patient with him and re-explained what was going on throughout the entire time they were here. Even though tons of tile and wall had to come down to complete the project, Josh and his partner left the place completely spotless in both days. I would definitely use Good Plumber and Josh again for any project I might have in the future.
Response from the owner:Thank you this amazing review! Josh is an asset to our company and we are fortunate to have him on team.
Mauricio did an excellent job. He was timely and offered great communication.
Josh was great and thorough. Reasonable prices for a job well done. Great communication. Definitely my go to plumber for my business.
Response from the owner:Thank you Tony for the review. We look forward to building a relationship and working with you in the future.
Great service
Thanks Josh for everything
The best plumbing service Iโ€™ve ever used. Highly recommend for any plumbing issues.
Response from the owner:Thank you for the great review. We appreciate your business and review.
Mauricio and his team came out on short notice to take a look at our situation. He was incredibly patient and knowledgeable about procedure, and candid about the unknowns. He was thorough in his explanations and very helpful in answering questions. Although the problem couldnโ€™t be fixed in the same job due to complications, he had let us know about next steps clearly so that what came after wasnโ€™t a surprise.
Response from the owner:Thank you for the great review! We look forward to completing this project with you and working with you in the future.
I had a pleasure working with Thomas from A Good Plumber. He is super knowledgeable and professional. Thomas was very friendly, honest, and not pushy for extra work. I highly recommend! I will be using Thomas as my go to plumber going forward.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for the review. We look forward to working with you on your project.
Tommy was awesome!!!! Our toilet was overflowing and even though they were crazy busy Bill told me they would squeeze us in today. Tommy was the one who came out and he explained everything and got it fixed before I needed to go pick my daughter up from school.
Response from the owner:Thank you again for your continued business! We are here to help when you need us!
A Good Plumber is a very dependable company who confirms your appointment a day in advance. If they run late, you get a call. Their plumbers are very personable, and answer all your questions.
Response from the owner:Thank you for your loyalty over the years and great to serve you guys.
Posting a review from my mother:

For the past few years we have used A Good Plumber. We are an older couple living in a one hundred year old house, and plumbing issues come up occasionally.
Every time we called A Good Plumber our call was returned promptly and technicians were sent to our house as soon as possible. Tommy and his team were professional, courteous, competent, and respectful of our property. They worked until the job was done and left the affected area clean and tidy.
Recently they went above and beyond to address a plumbing problem in our upstairs bathroom. They installed a new toilet immediately because my husband and I both have medical issues which make this a necessity. Tommy has always gone out of his way to be helpful and compassionate.
We highly recommend A Good Plumber for anyone looking for a skilled licensed plumber with a good heart and genuine concern for his clients. We also feel itโ€™s important to use local companies and services. Tommy and his crew at A Good Plumber are wonderful neighborhood resources.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for taking your time to leave this this amazing review for your parents. it is always a pleasure working with them all these years and we are always here when you need us.
