Review and analyze now for company Southwest Plumbing Services and provide the analysis in the discussed format for the following reviews: '''We came home late at night to find that there was a leak in the ceiling of our garage. We put out a request for a quote and Justin got back to me within the hour.
I called the company line in the morning and they got Justin scheduled to come out between 11-2 the same day. They did tell me it was a light day for business as the reason why he could come out on such short notice.
Justin arrived in the window of time given and was professional, courteous and ready to get into it. He was able to diagnose the source of the leak (bathtub drain had been leaking) and repair the issue within an hour.
He had to leave to get some parts needed for the repair but returned quickly. Even on the way out my wife asked him to look at another issue and he was able to fix it quickly (slow draining bathroom sink).
The price was more than fair in my opinion for the work he did (cutting into drywall, finding the leak, diagnosing the leak, fixing the issue and miscellaneous). He was up front about everything and really honest.
If I need work like this done again I'll be calling him first. So when Justin put in my hot water heater everything seemed good.
However, 10 months later it stopped working. Turns out that he didn't used a grounded nut or ox-Gard, which are standard when combining metals.
Basic water heater install 101 but failing to do it could have cause a fire in my home! He ordered all new parts from the manufacturer as it was under warranty for parts and they refused to ship them without proof (has this happened before?!??!). I ended up without water for 4 days and missed time away from work.
Sure he's friendly, and he did cover the cost for another technician to spot and repair his error (minus $2 venmo fee) BUT my personal opinion is that he runs this "error" to bilk people out of $185 -- because labor is not covered on the warranty -- to repair operational heaters while he pockets the parts and scams manufacturers. When I tried to get him to compensate me for my inconvenience, he accused me of "strong arming" him.
Find another plumber, this one is either incompetent or a crook. We used Southwest Plumbing Services to replace a leaky kitchen faucet in January 2024.
The owner, Justin was very nice and personable starting with the first phone call. Justin arrived to our home on time and completed the job promptly and efficiently .
I'm so glad that we found Southwest Plumbing Services and will definitely use them for any other plumbing needs in the future. Had a break in one of my kitchen faucet lines .
Called for service luckily for me they had a cancellation the next day . Came within the time frame they said .
Justin was quick and efficient - even looked at a dishwasher issue I was having. Reasonable pricing .
Will definitely use again . Had an appointment set for plumbing repair.
No show, no call , no nothing. Complete flakes.
My tub had been leaking and Justin came out to check it out. I was told I would need to replace my tub and drain system.
I was told I would receive a quote the next day which I never received. I followed up with Justin 3 times and he never responded to me.
I finally had another Plummer come out who discovered the drain in the tub was loose and had no calking. Quick and much less expensive fix on the spot.
Disappointed that this wasn't even checked during the initial visit and on top of it completely ghosted me when I was willing to pay for the work he said I would need. Called around 3 and was told he could be out by 6/630pm 4/13.
I told him ill message around that time. No response.
Called. No response.
Texted in morning 4/14 No response. Bad customer service forsure.
No show multiple times. Said he was ordering parts, so thought we would give him another chance.
But then never showed up with the parts. Multiple text messages and phone calls and never returns the phone calls or text messages.
Finally ask him if he even wanted the job and several hours later, he responded just with the word perfect. Meaning we could find another contractor.
Could not have been nicer to this guy and really tried to give him a chance. However, he is very flaky.
We used Justin twice for our faucet problems. He was quick to answer the phone and call back.
Even after hours (10:30 pm). He was also great about explaining prices and what would work out best for us.
I was impressed with their professionalism and service. We would definitely use them again! I have found you on yelp because I have some faucet licking problems I started the read about you everyone was saying how good and care fast service you have which I liked so much that I decided to exchange messages with you Justin, you know who you are soon after talking and sending pictures of my problem you knew before hand what I was talking about it.
Now I am happy I went with you because you have fixed both of my faucet in my yard and front for a reasonable price I thank you for that and even give me pricing for my bathroom sink faucet problems soon i will be calling you again thank you from the bottom of my heart for caring for me and for my faucet problems Justin was awesome and friendly . Replaced my water heater and did an amazing job.
Any future or current plumbing needs Justin's the guy I recommend! Had Justin install Reverse Osmosis water treatment system. He answered all my questions and had great insights for which one to choose.
Completed installation quickly and efficiently. Had a question after he left and texted him and he answered right away.
Really appreciate the follow up; even after he was done Justin is always prompt with a return call and getting our plumbing needs handled quickly. He is very fairly priced, and always does a great job! Failed to show up without calling the first day.
Then called to say they got too busy and weren't coming on the second day. How do you run a business like this?! After our home warranty refused to fix our issue, Justin came out today to meet my husband to help repair some plumbing.
He is prompt, very friendly, down to earth, honest, and is obviously a hardworking business owner. Very professional with fair pricing.
We will definitely keep his information for future plumbing needs and will recommend Justin to everyone we know. Excellent service at a reasonable cost.
An honest contractor! I appreciate their service and cost and will be using them in the future for my plumbing needs. I've used Southwest Plumbing Services just before the holidays and am scheduled to use them again this week.
Main water line to my home was leaking and had to shut water off to house! Family over so emergency needed it fixed ASAP!!! I yelped plumber and southwest plumbing popped up. Justin immediately responded to my message , i sent him pictures of issue and he gave an extremely fair quote and showed up 30 mins later when he said he would.
He had plans with his family but came and got the job done, and his work is excellent!!! Would definitely recommend southwest plumbing and will be my to go to company when i or anyone i know has any plumbing needs! I have contacted several plumbers for a quote, This plumber was the most responsive and quick to answer all my questions. And was very prompt and very friendly.
I had a clogged kitchen sink that I could not get it unclogged my self after nearly 2 weeks of trying. He fit me in as soon as he was available.
In addition to my kitchen sink he also did some work on both of my outside hose spicket that had small leaks. he did a fantastic job and fixed all my issues and explained a few things under my sink that I didn't know before.
I would do business again for any of my plumbing needs. Excellent communication, punctual, and efficient.
Will be calling them in the future when needed. Justin and his assistant Zane came out within an hour of me calling this morning.
After taking a look at our two shower faucets, he gave me an estimate and called around for the parts that were needed. He ended up having to go do some driving around for what was needed, but I expected that and was very happy that I did not have to go and find what was needed.
He came back and finished everything up really quickly, giving me advice for a replacement that still needs to be done when we can swing the cost. I'm so thankful for the work that he did and that he was available so quickly.
I should have called a long time ago. Setup an appointment with Justin.
He did not show up. I called and he said he was on his way.
Two hours later and he did not show or respond to my calls. The right thing to do would be to call and let us know he would not be able to make it anymore but that did not happen.
Justin was prompt, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable! Beyond that, his rates were better than other quotes I'd received. Dealing with Southwest Plumbing was a breeze, and it turned my nightmare of a leak into an easy fix! I had a water pipe burst that was connected to an outside hose bibb.
I called Justin and he was able to come out within an hour late on a Saturday! His work is thorough and he is very professional. He is from Minnesota and definitely fits the motto of "Minnesota Nice".
I will definitely call Justin again for my future plumbing needs. I was referred by nextdoor app.
Justin answered my call and was able to help me out the same day. All work was completed in a timely matter.
I will definitely use this service again. Responsive company that won't try to up-sell you.
Based on my experience, they are knowledgeable, friendly and operate with integrity. We will definitely call them again if we have any other plumbing issues.
Justin was able to come and repair a leak the same day. He fixed the leak quickly, cleaned up the work space and explained the job clearly.
He is professional and reasonably priced and I recommend calling him if you need plumbing work done. I'd definitely hire him again! Prompt honest service.
Justin did a great job at figuring out what was wrong with our plumbing. No upsell.
Very satisfied. Can I give a ZERO? he never showed up made an appointment 10 days in advance for 9 AM November 9th...9 am..nobody comes by so I texted him at 9:30 am ..to see if he was coming.
Never even bothered to answer. Still waiting for a response 12 hrs later.,I take it Justin had a bigger better paying job at 9 am on a Friday morning or he figured it wasn't worth getting out of bed for.
Do not call these people...unless you like to waste your morning. My time is worth money too.
All these 5 star reviews must be fake because NOBODY would have that kind of customer communication and get 5 star reviews. Justin came to my house just a few minutes after I called even if it was already 7:45pm (thank you Yelp!).
He fixed the leaking faucet outside my house. It was an easy fix for him that took less than 30mins.
He was very polite, professional and even gave me a walkthru on how to turn off the main water valve in the house in case a leak happened again. Very highly recommeded! I reached out to Southwest Plumbing Services and a few other plumbing places via Yelp messages after we discovered a pipe leak in our kitchen.
Justin reached out to me right away, and instead of getting the typical response of "this is our hourly rate" or "call us to schedule," Justin actually asked me questions first about the problem. After I called him he was able to walk me through the process and the steps that had to be taken in order to get the leak fixed.
He recommended a good water restoration company, and they also responded right away. Justin was kind enough to stop by Tuesday evening and look at things for us.
He got us booked for the following day and not only fixed the leak, but he also replaced our hot and cold water valves, too. Overall, we are impressed with the speedy response and the assistance we received.
Justin was very professional and knowledgeable. We will absolutely recommend Southwest Plumbing Services, and plan to use them for future needs.
Justin was on time and honest we will be using him in the future and would not hesitate to refer him to anybody Justin was a pleasure to work with. Great communication and extremely timely.
Gave me a quote for the work (same day service) and showed up promptly and got it done. I've been looking for a reliable plumber for a long time, and I've finally found one.
Prices are fair, service is great, no regrets...what more can you ask for. Thanks Southwest Plumbing! Had issues with my shower valve and hot water tank at the same time.
I found this Company on Yelp and Justin called me within 5 Minutes. He was very courteous and easy to work with.
He showed up the next day fixed the problem for a fair price. While he was here fixing the shower valve I mentioned to him the issues I was having with my hot water tank and he offered to take a look at it.
He came back with his partner Fabian and fixed the hot water tank the next day. Both guys are very knowledgable and did a great job.
I will definitely be using this company again next time I have a plumbing issue. Response time was very prompt and very satisfied with the whole experience.
Justin did a great job. He is originally from the Midwest, owns the company and takes pride in his work.
I loved that there was no middle man to jack up the prices. I found him to replace our former plumber that sold his business to a non-plumber (you know how that goes!) Justin came out quickly, same day, replaced 4 faucet cartridges and replaced a rusted sink drain.
He cleaned up, was professional and knows what he is doing. I would hire him again.
I had discovered a water leak on my main water line that George Brazil repaired a few years ago, so I called Justin first thing at 7am and received a return call within 5 minutes. I described the issue and he was able to give me a rough estimate on the phone and let me know he would stop by the same day as his last appointment.
He made me aware when he was on his way and showed up to assess the repair. He pointed out that he could replace the faulty coupler at a lower rate or redo the entire repair that was poorly done with lower grade materials and even had a smaller sized piece of copper in between the original piping.
He gave me the quote which was half what I paid George Brazil. He completed the job within 2 hours and everything looked good and worked properly.
Justin is very professional, does a great job and communicates well keeping you informed of everything you need to know. Justin came out to repair our copper line just after the water meter.
He was prompt, courteous and they followed up after to make sure that the repairs were good to go with no firther issues. We will definitely used them again if needed and will recommend to friends and family! Justin with southwest plumbing is the best.
He is very knowledgeable and very fare priced. Thank you again for completing the job in a timely manor.
Would definitely recommend southwest plumbing and will be my to go to company when i or anyone i know has any plumbing needs! Great people to deal with and better priced than other plumbing services. I had Justin reset a toilet as the bolts had rusted and he came out the next day and did it and resealed it ,looks great .
I recommend Southwest Plumbing Services ,they are great to work with . Justin and Daniel were awesome! We contacted them and they came out the next day.
They did the job in less time than what was quoted and under budget. They were happy to answer all my questions.
Will definitely be calling back for future projects as they did a great job on our bathroom plumbing.'''.
