Web sites states prefer email contact. He responded right away and once per day. Agreed to proceed and in trying to set date stops communicating. Likely found other , better jobs. Hey, just respond with that or make a simple phone call, do not hide out via email. Joe the time waster.

Joe was great! He arrived exactly on time and went right to work replacing my leaky bathroom faucet. He also adjusted the toilet flow. He was nice enough to take a look at my emergency shut-off at the street after he was already off the clock. I thought his prices were reasonable and would definitely use him again.

Joe has been here at least 5 times, installed toilet, kitchen sink/garbage disposal and cleared bathtub backup 3 times when I foolishly shoved too much in the garbage disposal. Pricing always reasonable. Absolutely would have him back again.

Joe was great! He called to let me know he was delayed a bit, and when he showed up, he was fast, efficient, and professional. He helped me find the shutoff for my house, capped the pipe really quickly, and tried to save me money by using the existing cap (I spent the $5 on the new one anyway, but it was nice of him to offer). In and out in 30 minutes, great service!

The removal and replacement of my water heater went very well. Joe showed up when he said he would and worked efficiently and professionally. He left the area as he found it. Joe is very personable and I highly recommend him for your plumbing work. This is the second time I have had him out here for plumbing work (other issue was for a clog).

The service was great. He was able to come out quickly and when the job took longer than expected he made sure to move his schedule around so he could come back the next day to get it completed as soon as possible. He was very knowledgeable and efficient. I really apprecaited his advise and expertise. I would highly recommend him!

Based on my conversation with this "Joe the Plumber" today, I would not hesitate to call him for any plumbing needs I might have in the future.
Description of Work: I had originally written a review of a guy who calls himself Joe the Plumber. He is a totally different "Joe". Today, a very nice young man contacted me regarding my review and it turns out this is his business on Angie's List...not the "Joe" who never showed up to do my work. I feel really bad that I gave a negative review on this business and I'm sorry for the confusion. :(

Joe is simply awesome, I've used his service previously. He's responsive, courteous, professional, very reasonable, and most importantly, very honest. I don't ever have to worry about being told of phantom issues or the exaggeration of issues, a great guy and a great plumber all around.

Our crawl space project went awry when insulation was moved and water came pouring out. Called Jim late in day and the technician came out a few hours later. He did not even hesitate to crawl under the house in the dark. Shower drain was leaking. A pipe was cracked. We were able to continue our insulation project next day. A couple of weeks later when the new insulation was going in. We had some new duct work put in. The contractor saw water leaking. This time it was from my garden tub drain. Joe came out same day and repair was done quickly.
Description of Work: We used Joe 2x for different problems that were under our crawl space. 2 different leaks in a short period of time. One was a leaky shower drain. One was a tub drain from garden tub.

Joe quickly got to work and identified the fix for each of my three plumbing problems. He was friendly and courteous. He explained the cause of each problem and what had failed. It was amazing how quickly he zeroed in on the cause of my water hammer issue. He explained the fix and got it resolved (it was a bad check valve on the input side of the water heater). His work is top notch and he does not waste time. He is very friendly.

Joe the Plumber arrived promptly by the estimated time. Fixed the problem in about 20 minutes. Cleaned up after the job was done. Explained to my husband how to fix problem in the future if it happened again. His price was very fair compared to others. Very honest plumber.
Description of Work: His estimated time to arrive was between 12:00 and 4:00. He arrived at noon,and by our description of the problem in our bathtub faucet, he knew what to do, fixed it in about 20 minutes and was on his way. He told us if we had the problem again, to call him and he would explain on the phone what to do. His price was excellent in comparison to other over the phone estimates. He will definitely be our plumber in the future.

Joe sounded exhausted but said he would come by as soon as he finished the job he was on. Within one hour he arrived, analyzed the problem, discussed several options and areas he thought might be of concern. Joe then repaired the problem, cleaned up and left. No hard sell, courteous, professional and did a great job even way after all the other plumbers had called it a day or wanted $300 to $400 per hr just to show up. Great Job Joe!

We were very pleased. His prices are good, and we found him to be very honest and professional.
Description of Work: We had disposal problems in two different residences at nearly the same time, and had Joe take care of both. In one case he replaced the disposal, and in the other he was able to get it going, saving us a lot of money.

Joe was prompt (early actually). He went right to work, finished quickly and it works great now. Also, one of the jobs would have been more complex, and rather than talking me into the repair, he was honest and said we could wait until we are ready to remodel the room in the future (it would have taking cutting into a wall to repair). Joe did GREAT work.
Description of Work: We had two water leaks: The bathtub faucet and an outside faucet. Joe repaired the bathtub faucet, but he did not repair the outside faucet after we discussed what would be involved and the price.

Great experience with Joe. Initial hourly rate sounded high but Joe knows his stuff and work hard. An hour of Joe is like 2 hours from many plumbers (or 4 hours of a DIYer like me) Joe also took the time (not billed) to give other general good plumbing advice relevant to my remodel and future projects I was planning.
Description of Work: Hired Joe to help with a variety of plumbing issues during my basement remodel of an old 1919 house including the following: Snake toilet Re-route copper pipe Replace and relocate old copper main domestic line in in house with new Pex line (roughly 30') Replace portion of old rusted cast iron sewer line (connected to new abs) Re-locate existing PVC pipes and partial replace with pex.

Joe did whatever it took to replace the water heater. He tried to troubleshoot the problem for us over the phone first instead of trying to charge us, but that didn’t seem to work. So he came out and did a really good job. We chose him because he was highly recommended on the internet. He is very knowledgeable and professional. He doesn’t try and overcharge you. We would definitely use his services in the future too. In fact, we have already booked him again for a second job.
Description of Work: Joe the Plumber replaced a very ancient water heater for us about a couple of months ago.
