I have used Richardson Plumbing for years and I have always been impressed with their service and quality of work. I know the job will always be done to the highest standard and done right the first time. I also appreciate the time John takes to make sure your home is just as clean as it was before he arrived. He always takes the time to put down drop cloths to keep the carpets clean and then takes the time to clean the area he was working on when he is done. From experience I know not all plumbers do this. I would recommend Richardson Plumbing for any plumbing work that you need done.

We highly recommend Richardson Plumbing! John is fantastic and has helped us out on a number of jobs. He’s very knowledgeable and does quality work at a fair price! Each time he has been to our house, he’s gone above and beyond what we’ve called him for!

We would highly recommend John Richardson to anyone needing plumbing services. He did excellent work. He thoroughly explained everything that needed to be done and was very reliable. John even came to our house on a bitterly cold Christmas Eve to hook up our gas fireplace so we could have a cozy Christmas with our family. We also appreciated the fact that John cleaned his work space and left no mess for us. We will definitely be using John for all our plumbing needs.Jeanne and Kevin Cunningham

John is a very knowledgeable plumberthat knows how to get the job done right the first time. He is very responsive as he came out to our house the day we called him. He is honest, wont over charge, and explains the reasoning behind what needs to be done. Best plumber experience by far and would recommend him to everyone.

We contacted several plumbers when we moved into our condo. We selected John and his Richardson Plumbing Co Inc to install a water softener, replace two water closets (one of grandsons loves that name), replace three faucets, replace the water lines for our clothes washer and replace two shower heads. Our property manager tells us he is very impressed with how he installed the water softener in our storage unit, ran the lines through another room and into the room for all of the water meters in our building - very professional installation. The prices were all reasonable and work professional. John is great to work with, and as others have said, leaves our home as clean or cleaner than he found it. We highly recommend him to others including our sons and daughters.

When I bought a house, I called Richardson Plumbing to help with the remodeling. John is a fantastic guy - prompt, knowledgeable, and very good at his craft. He returned all my calls and answered all my questions. John installed a new shower and replaced all the stools. This is top-quality work at a great price.

Our water heater was recently damaged due to water in our basement. I was able to relight the pilot once but we were out of hot water on Saturday, May 7. We called John and he was at our house in about 30 minutes.We needed a new unit and I asked John when he could do the install. He said Now. Within 15 minutes he was working on the install and worked until about 8PM to get the job done.Professional, thorough, great customer service. He also installed a upgraded sump pump with battery backup a few weeks ago.Hes our go to guy when it comes to providing great service, an honest appraisal of whats needed, and quality products.Very reputable and trustworthy.

John Richardson has done several plumbing jobs for me in the past and will be doing another one for me in the very near future. His work is top-notch! He is honest and will not try to sell you something you do not need. He will not use or install substandard materials. John stands behind his work. For plumbing, I would use no one else! If you want superior work done at a fair price, you will give John a call.

Recently my sump pump and battery backup system failed at my house. I live near a creek so its pretty important to make sure the system is always operable. John has a lot of clientele and was very busy that week but he took time out of his busy schedule to get the sump pump repaired later that day. He followed up a few days later on a Saturday to get the battery backup system reinstalled. I feel that John really cares about his clients and goes out of his way to be available when they need help right away.

I called John for a clogged drain. He came out right away (on a Sunday) and got the situation handled for us. He was extremely professional in his service, attitude, and appearance. His prices were more than fair and Richardson Plumbing would be my first call from now on. I highly recommend Richardson Plumbing.

Our manufacturing company has used Jon repeatedly for upgrades and repairs around the office and facility. His work is top notch, very clean installation and knowledgeable. He takes great pride in his work and is great about keeping open communication. We would highly recommend him for any plumbing issues or repairs you may have.

John went above and beyond to give us options available for our water heater, when we decided to replace it he had it installed quickly. He answered all of our questions and spotted a safety issued that needed to be addressed. We would definately contact him for any future issues.

John has been great to work with. We have called him a few times and he is always very thorough and does a nice job. I especially appreciate his approach to toilet repairs where there is no mess left behind. Thank you John!

I called John yesterday afternoon to check out the water pressure of one of the shampoo bowls at my salon (the BEST Salon). He came out the next day (today) and checked it out. I was very pleased and had great conversation with him and loved how he helped me understand what was wrong. Very honest, and helpful causing me to feel like he is a very reliable man!

John has done excellent work for our company. He is always there as promised and does tremendous work as well. I would highly recommend Richardson Plumbing Co for all your plumbing needs.

Mr. Richardson took my call on a Sunday evening and patiently walked me through my dishwasher installation problem over the phone. We successfully restored water to the house and I have a new dishwasher that works beautifully. He also diagnosed a plumbing problem that had been improperly installed since the house was built. Honest. Patient. Fair - Thanks for everything!

John knows plumbing. His over 30+ years of experience was evident. He thoroughly researched the problem at hand, explained pros and cons of the different types of work and was quick to resolve and remedy the issue. If you have a small or big job, servicing repairs or remodeling, I highly recommend John. Thank you for helping us out.

John Richardson has done all of our plumbing remodel and fix-it work since 2003. He has spent many long hours fixing problems that have arisen in our house (things the builder most likely didnt do as well as they could have), as well as routine maintenance and adding improvements (adding a gas line for our kitchen remodel, among other things). He has always been wonderful about coming on short notice, and stays until the job is done, even if that means a very long day sometimes. I believe he is very honest and does good quality work. He is always willing to let us know when there are problems just waiting to happen with our plumbing (such as bad quality or missing shut-off valves), so that we can proactively fix these situations, saving us thousands of dollars of potential problems down the road.We appreciate his integrity and his experience in the field. He does great work!

As I watched water stream down my wall on CHRISTMAS EVE I panicked and started calling local plumbers - I called 13 as I went down the phone book. When I reached Richardsons he answered in the first 3 rings. He was at my house within the hour. The tech was so polite and sincere he eased my mind before we even knew the issue. Within a few minutes he knew had the diagnotsic and he was off to work - when he was finished he left the place spotless. I would recommend this company with high regards. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Was able to come out the same day and fix a very stubborn clog in my master bath, after a technician from another company failed to do so the day before.Very professional and friendly! I’ll be keeping his card handy for future needs.He’s got my strongest recommendation.

John was able to help me out and fix my brass adapter issue and had a few minutes to give me options for other work. Will use this company exclusively for work needed. Great experience!

I was impressed with the pride he took in the quality of his work, I also liked that he used parts made in the USA. I felt the pricing was very fair for the work performed. I would recommend Richardson Plumbing Co.

Water heater issue. John discovered that there was a venting problem. Got it fixed. Finally we have a hot water again!Highly recommended!

Review 31 (2022-12-24 - Rating: 5)
Was at our home promptly on a Saturday - Christmas Eve, even. He was professional and courteous even as our reported burst pipe slowly revealed itself to be 4 burst pipes. Even stuck around to help thaw the other pipes nearby to make sure we wouldnt need them fixed, too! His price was extremely fair. Highly, highly recommended!

John replaced our water heater recently, and we are very happy with the experience. He was very responsive, even offering to come over same day if needed. He did the work with care and precision. He put down drop cloths and left things cleaner than he found them. And the price was very reasonable compared to some others in the area. Im very impressed with the way John does things, as both a plumber and a business owner. I would definitely recommend his work.

I called Richardson Plumbing when I had a plumbing emergency. John squeezed me in between two clients as he was in the neighborhood. He realized the fix was a quick one and did the job right then. He was kind, professional and answered all of my questions which were plentiful!! I am so grateful I called him. Will recommend to family and friends and so happy to have a plumber I trust!

We are thrilled to have John Richardson as our plumber. He has worked with us over the past year to update our 1910 home. John is very professional, knowledgeable and dependable. He takes great pride in his work. I have always found his pricing to be competitive and fair. He works efficiently and always get the promised work finished as scheduled.

Review 39 (2017-01-12 - Rating: 5)
John did a great job helping with a couple minor issues with the faucet and a hot water pipe in the bathroom. He was very quick in responding to a voicemail I left him. He was able to help the same day and was very thorough in helping to explain the problems. He also helped provide solutions moving forward and things to keep in mind to when dealing with problematic plumbing issues. Very reasonable pricing and I highly recommend.

He went above and beyond for us! Came out same day, did great work at a reasonable price, and even came back to check something we had forgotten about when he was here the first time. A pleasure to work with and highly recommend!
