I've never used a plumber in my 75 years. These guys did a great job. Diagnosed my shower leak to the shower head extension tube. Replaced it and leak tested it and the shower pan. They also recommended a guy to replace the soggy drywall. Who also did a great job. read more

Johnson Plumbing listened to my service request and were able to get the job done in 2 hours. Thank you.

Had to do a weekend emergency call for backed up plumbing. Was able to get everything sorted within 2 hours of my call, despite being on another service when I called. Rate was reasonable, plumber was professional and got the job done quickly. I called them because they always took care of my parents, and was not disappointed. Highly recommend. read more

I had the emergency need for a plumber twice in two weeks. Johnson plumbing showed up on time they were kind and courteous, very fairly priced and honest. I highly recommend Johnson plumbing to anyone in the Merced a Atwater area. I would like to explain what I mean by fairly priced and honest. I had another company (Rotorooter) come out and provided me with a quote for $2300 to locate the clean out and snake the clean out. They also said it would take two days.... Johnson plumbing completed the job for $200 and the job was completed in two hours. Thank you again Johnson Plumbing! read more

Rude customer service. Impatient people working there. Asking clarification questions, and the lady had a rude tone of voice.

I run a complex in Merced and Atwater and Johnsons is reliable, friendly and always there to get the job done!!!!

I had Johnson Plumbing come out to my house just because the faucet was leaking, and review seems to be ok. The faucet was not too old, so I was hoping that we only need to replace the cartridge. Of course, they did not recommend that, and suggested to replace the faucet. It was ok, and we paid $429.67 to replace the faucet to save the trouble. I did not realize the true trouble came after that, they started to send second bill of $128.50 for trouble shooting the issue. I told them I did not need them to trouble shoot a leaking faucet. Then, they keep sending this diagnostics bill and threaten to send the bill to collection. read more

The two gentlemen that came were very knowledgeable and efficient. The reason for our call was an issue regarding the line from the freezer (ice maker) to plumbing of the house. read more

These guys will give you a Quote at the start of the job and proceed to double charge you. A Quote at the job site should be the price and not needlessly add additional work that isn't approved and then bill the customer later. read more

Just had my, 71 year, old main water line replaced by Johnson Plumbing. They are so fast and efficient. I highly recommend them.

Overcharged for time and supplies and our water pump still can't pump out water. Bad experience and wouldn't recommend for use.

Stand up guy to refund the $300.00 thank you. I was surprised. Just to let you know, the capital letter response can be intimidating to some folks. Just saying. Thanks again read more

Jason was great. Company is very expensive. Not sure if I would call them again. We were in an emergency situation and I did not have time to get other quotes. read more

Greg Johnson is a God-send! I had a broken waterline and on the advice of the city got 4 quotes for service before choosing a plumber to do the job. Boy am I glad I stuck to following that advice. This company was the first I spoke to. Two men from other companies were able to get to my house before Greg could get there so Greg was the 3rd plumber I experienced in person. Two of the 3 other plumbers were nice but it was clear to me from meeting with all of them and asking them all to send me quotes that the one who didn't want to rip me off was Greg. All the other plumbers were laying groundwork for "a possible total replumb" or "slab leak". The lowest bid I got for just repair work and not replacement/replumb was still sky high. Greg saved the day! He got it done for only a few hours of labor and whatever the parts cost which weren't much. I have no idea about plumbing and all the plumbers knew it. Greg wasn't interested in taking advantage and as a matter of fact came and oversaw the work while it was being done by his worker and let me tell you, Greg has definitely earned my trust. He makes sure his men do the job properly, that his customer isn't getting ripped off or mislead, or that work isn't done that isn't actually needed, and that a bigger more costly issue isn't accidentally (or on purpose) created. He clearly cares about the service he provides and isn't interested in raking people over the coals. This would be my recommendation to anyone for any plumbing issue, and they span over a pretty large territory that covers multiple counties and cities in the central valley so try these guys first. Greg also has a background in construction so he knows what he's looking at beside just the plumbing, and has folks in other trades that he can connect you with that will do the repair work his company doesn't if you don't want to be burdened with finding a company you can trust on your own. Good people tend to like to create a network of other good people to work with, and it's nice to have the option of a "one stop shop" so to speak, and to trust that they aren't collectively ripping you off. Greg got my issue addressed next day despite being slammed with work out of nowhere that day. Greg is a man of his word and doesn't just care about securing business and what's going to get him the most money, but about the people he's helping and the affects on them. His hourly rate is higher than the others but to be honest it is well worth it. The others might have a lower hourly rate but they're going to rake you over the coals. Greg will give you honest, quality work, at what is a very reasonable price especially considering the amount of honesty and piece of mind the extra ~$30 an hour gets you. I'm happy to pay it. Greg got my problem addressed and water restored to my home by the next day! Thank you Greg! You are noble and much appreciated! I will call you for any future needs I may have. read more

We had such a problem trying to get a plumber to come out to fix our backup. We were recommended by another customer who was very satisfied with their work as well. They were having some problems while they were trying to fix the backup and they called 3 extra guys to come help. They came out and not only fixed our problem but provided GREAT service. It started pouring while they were here and they still kept working through it all. They also have super affordable prices! I highly recommend them! read more

They had some difficulty getting the replacement faucet due to shipping. As usual, very efficient service worker. Mike was polite and outfitted with mask. Seems like we periodically have them repairing someone. read more

Jason was friendly and knowledgeable. He quickly replaced my old, dead garbage disposal with a new one. Works great! I am so pleased. Teddi in Merced. read more

I have used Johnson Plumbing 2 or 3 times in the past. Up until the last time, I was satisfied with their service. In early August of 2022, I called them to fix a leak near an outside faucet on my rental house. When the job was finished, I met with the repair man and paid him the amount he requested. Never was I told that the amount requested was only a portion of the total repair bill. Logically, I assumed the repair was paid in full. More than four months later, just before Christmas, I was contacted and told that I owed an additional $280. Had I been told the total price of the repair when it was completed, I would have paid the bill at that time. However, receiving an unexpected bill from a job completed over 4 months ago, it not only seems unprofessional, but suspicious as well. Will I use them ever again? I think not! read more

They respond very quickly and fixed the kitchen drain within an hour.

Our drains were clogged and toilets were not flushing properly. I called them in the morning and they had someone out within 30-45 mins. The service tech was super knowledgeable & got everything done in less than hour. Their prices are affordable as well! read more

I called for emergency services and I called Johnson plumbing. Talked with a lady that was really nice and gave her all our information to get a call back form the plumber that's on call. Plumber called back about 15min later which we felt was really fast But after hearing they wanted to charge 220 per hr with a 1.5 hour minimum. We where shocked and we will never call them back. I would hate to see what they charge during regular hours. I would recommend calling another company that is not going to price gouge you because they think they have you over a barrel. thank you read more

We hired the company to take care of a leak at my elderly uncle's home. We do not live in the area and were concerned about how this might effect the cost. Johnson Plumbing, came out to the house and completed the work in a very timely manner. They did a great job and took care of the leak. They also provided photos of the before and after for our review. We are grateful for their professionalism and knowledge. The serviceman, Jason, was great! read more

Worst experience ever. They sent out an incompetent person who had no idea what he was doing. He said it would take three hours. He had to keep calling other people. It took six hours to fix a leak in a pipe outside and install two faucets. We notified the office of the problem. They charged us nearly $800! All because it took him twice as long because he didn't know what he was doing, and that didn't include the price of the faucets! I would never recommend them. read more

My issue was resolved after speaking with the owner who is a professional and has owned this business for years...he takes pride in his business and understands the worth of his customers...we used them since we moved here and will continue to... read more

I paid $100 for them to clear a clog in my shower. The employee told my son he couldn't reach the clog AND the snake broke AND he couldn't get the supervisor's permission to stay longer. So, I paid another $100 for them to return. It was fixed in about 5 minutes. It seems to me this could've been done the first hour and could've saved me $100. read more

GREAT‼‼ it's HARD to find places that will work with you these days, and they came through for us and our needs, on a job that was pretty Big for our budget. A Big Thank You! read more

Never use Johnson Plumbing under any circumstances! Johnson Plumbing take advantage of elderly people. Johnson Plumbing take advantage of Veterans. I called them out to repair/replace a copper hose running up to my mother's swamp cooler that had been leaking. Instead, they took pictures, stayed for 10 mins and charged my mother $126. They stated that the float was broken and that was the cause of the leak. We changed the float and the swamp cooler still leaked. I called the next morning with the same request, please repair/replace the cooper line due to it leaking. This time I was told the Swamp cooler needed to be replaced and the manger would call me later to discuss the issue. Not only did the manger never call me back, but I called another plumbing company that came out that same day, replaced the cooper line and now the swamp cooler runs perfectly! I gave Johnson Plumbing a chance to redeem themselves and make my mother whole, they were not interested. Johnson Plumbing clearly have no integrity. read more

Technicians came twice and charge double for service to fix a water heater that could be done in one day. One day they installed the pilot (I was charged per hour of service and part) but my heater it wasn't fixed. Now my controller was broken , they had to come back another day. They gave me the part number so I can buy it myself , I didn't go to the local store they want. I bought the part online (very carefully, with the model number and part number ) $250 dollar cheaper from the store they advised. When the technicians came to install it, they told me that it was the wrong part and they made me buy it from the local store . Then, they compared the parts and both were identical but the one from the store had a small adapter. The result of this, I was charged for two services , they made me return the cheaper part, after recognizing that it was the right part but the small adapter was missing. I could order the adapter easily but they were already charging per hour of service. The part that I bought in the local store includes pilot part that I was charged the first day and they kept it. I called to complain and guess what, I was blamed for all this just because I bought it online. they sent me an additional invoice for $160 that I should not be charged. And I lost $250 in the "wrong part "+ $40 in the pilot they kept . I lost $450 for trusting this company. Stay away and find a company that is accountable for it mistakes and doesn't punish its customers for trying to save some money. read more

No one likes to be woken up in the middle of the night but in a plumbing emergency we had no choice but to call a plumber. I yelped commercial plumbing and luckily for us they Johnson's Plumbing has a 24 hour service. The technician was very nice and professional for being called out at 12:30 am:) He got the job done and in a timely manner! Thank you so much for the fast service. read more

Called for service and they answered promptly. They were able to come out same day. They gave a 2 hour window and actually showed up in that time window. The tech was knowledgeable and helpful. Patient and responsive in answering my questions. And they got the job done! Highly recommend. read more

I have used Johnson's Plumbing for years. I've always got a great price and fast service. They changed out my entire drain from home to street in one day at a cost lower than any other. I have called them numerous times for plugged drains. Their response time is always within a few hours. Yesterday, the poor service guy was working in 100+ degree weather. He was nice. He completely cleaned the entire drain. And he cleaned the entire area before he left. Great Way To Keep Customers. read more

Very courteous, professional and reasonable. Fixed the problem with my shower when previous plumber abandoned job. Thank you!!

I had an unfortunate leak in the upstairs bathroom leaking onto the downstairs living room! David from Johnson plumbing came that same day, explained everything for me very well. He did a great job and got it all fixed in a couple of hours. Super friendly. And knowledgeable and explained things to me very well. I highly recommend David from Johnson plumbing :) thank you!!! read more

I called Johnson Plumbing back in Sept 2019 for a rental property kitchen sink issue. They said I didn't need to be there, since they can fix the problem if needed, with cost estimate not to exceed certain limit. They went and inspected the issue, but was unable to determine the problem. Well, the problem came up again (Nov. 20), but this time the tenants had a video of the leak. When the technician came, he still was unable to duplicate the problem, but suggested that we replace the faucet, so it doesn't happen again. Because I was there at the location, I was able to make a decision at this time, unlike the last time, where I did not have the option to make that call. The rate quoted was fair, but not cheap, but they gave me a one year warranty on labor if it leaks again. I would recommend them, but be sure to be there when they are doing the inspection and giving you a quote. read more

This is our second time using Johnson Plumbing. We discovered a leak in the main line leading to our fairly new house. The leak appeared to be before the main shutoff valve to the house. I did not want to screw anything up, so we called Johnson Plumbing. It was late in the afternoon and the dispatcher promised to have someone out to address the problem the next morning at 9am. Jerry arrived right on time with a smile. He asked about the situation and got right to work. He diagnosed the issue within a minute, shut off the main water line and started to dig. Jerry had to leave the job site twice to retrieve equipment and the correct parts. He communicated with us each time so we wouldn't be left wondering. The whole process took less than 3 hours. The invoice was fair and easy to understand. Jerry presented himself as clean, friendly, and professional. I would highly recommend Jerry and Johnson Plumbing to my friends and neighbors. read more

I left a question to compare the cost, about clearing a sewer line of roots that has been an issue in the past. Johnson Plumbing answered first with a reasonable quote, so I called to schedule an appt. The person I spoke to said she'd call someone to go out to the address and that person would call me and let me know when he'd get there. An hour or so passed and my renters called to say the plumber was done, do I want them to pay him. I said no, they were supposed to call me first, but I'll head over there to write them a check. Plumber said the renters told him the plumbing gets plugged alot, I said it seems to be seasonal, happening in fall and spring, but it's been a problem for me and my neighbors for years; their problems ended when the city finally took out the tree on the edge of their property. Plumber said they could put a camera down the line, find the problem, and fix it. I asked for a price and said I'd schedule that for another time. I didn't get the call I was waiting for from the plumber, so I don't know if the job was done in a timely manner. I would've liked to have met him at my rental and talked to him about the problems I've had with the sewer line clogging. The price the plumber gave me was a tiny bit over what I was quoted online, BUT it was a Saturday and they came and fixed the problem. The plumber was polite and professional. read more

I called Johnson Plumbing at 8am the day after a holiday, and they were able to send someone over by 9am. There was an issue with having plumbing that was so old that they needed to send a second repairman later in the day to work on the toilet, and both plumbers were courteous and professional. Jason (I think it was Jason) was worried he was going to have to do a more expensive (and time consuming) repair because there was a little metal tab getting in the way of a new piece going into the existing plumbing/pipes, but he was able to grind off the little tab so that a more expensive repair wasn't needed. I got a bill of less than 300 dollars for roots being cleared from the main line, and a new toilet flange put in, and I was thrilled. read more

My house is 40 years old and was a rental for 24 years. I've just moved back in, (and it seems as if everything I touch in the house falls apart -- but I digress.) Jason Pettit from Johnson Plumbing came to my house to fix the leaking water valves to my washing machine, a leaky bath tub faucet, and (last but not least) to hook up a gas dryer. I appreciated the company's phone call and Jason's timely arrival. He wore a mask without being asked, was very knowledgeable, and explained each step as he worked. The charges were quite reasonable. Most importantly, I have peace of mind knowing the work was done right! read more
