So John installed all of our products I am showing you a little over a year ago. We bought our house Sept 6 of 2016. It was built in 2005 as a spec house in a historic neighborhood. As with a lot of spec homes what looks good on the surface is not always what lies below. John fixed what was wrong with our home to make it livable for us. I am ;posting this today because I needed help with changing the 5 stage water filtration system cartridges, he came same day & helped me out. THAT IS SERVICE!!!

John was very responsive and gave great explanations for the plumbing issues we were experiencing and the repairs he made. He was knowledgeable, efficient and had very reasonable pricing. With unfortunately not having the greatest experiences with other local plumbers in the past, John was truly a breath of fresh air and a pleasure to do business with. Would highly recommend!

I recently used Shiver for a plumbing need at my office and was very impressed with Johns response time and knowledge. He assessed my situation, provided me with options and gave me the space and time to make an educated and rational decision. I find John to be trustworthy and knowledgeable and will be referring him to everyone I know with plumbing needs.

Moved to Nashville recently and had a clog in my kitchen drain. I am really glad I came across John - he was great, and I will not hesitate to call him in the future if I have plumbing issues. He was able to schedule an appointment very promptly and was able to fix the drain issue very quickly. He was great at explaining the issue and how to prevent it in the future - he clearly takes his craft seriously and is very knowledgeable. During the process he also provided general tips about drains and drainage and ended up helping us get parts for and install a mixing valve to solve an issue we were having getting hot water more quickly circulated to the bathrooms in the back of our house (our water heater is in the front of the house). It is a game changer. Highly recommend!

I like doing business with the vendors who dont use or need TV commercials or big shiny trucks. After searching the web, reviews, and websites for plumbers in my part of Nashville, I decided to take the chance on using John to fix the broken fitting around my water pressure booster. John was able to come out quickly and repair the fittings around my water pressure booster once he made a run to the parts supply house to get unique fixtures needed for my repair. I am glad I found John and will continue to use him for my plumbing needs. Based on the time he spent with me, the repair, and getting the special parts, I feel I was charged a fair price for his services. Support your local small businesses. I am glad I did.

I highly recommend John! He was quick to schedule with me and he was at my house exactly when he said hed be (which I really appreciate, I have had 5 local highly-rated repair people flake or cancel last minute, and it was super frustrating, this was not the case with John at all). He took care of the clog in my bathroom sink and even offered to replace the pipes below the sink with PVC, which will last longer. He had all of the replacement parts already and completed the replacement the same day! He was very friendly and gave me additional information for how to properly care for the pipes and drains in my older house to prevent issues in the future.Thank you John!

John was very knowledgeable about the condos in my area (River Plantation). I was purchasing a home and needed a plumber to assess the plumbing issues that appeared in the inspection. John was sensitive to my timeframe and did a thorough assessment. He provided a detailed explanation of the issues and my options. After closing karma he quickly repaired all of the issues. He was always on time and always professional.

We woke up to a leaky hot water heater (and water covering our garage floor) early this morning. John answered his phone at 7 a.m. after I had to leave messages or wait for callbacks from the other services I tried. He was at our house by 9 a.m. and we had an operation hot water heater by early afternoon. And he gave us a fair price when some may have exploited the urgent nature of our job. I can’t recommend him enough!

John is the best I have ever worked with: hes very thorough hes always going to give you the very best option. John is very smart if he doesnt have an answer he will figure it out. His prices are unbeatable, the honesty the thoroughness I would be willing to pay almost double for his services!! John has done work for me at my home rental home and the retail business I run . Thank you!

I had a great experience working with John. He was responsive, punctual and worked very quickly. No nonsense. Will definitely work with him again for future plumbing needs.

John Shiver is still the best plumber I know and now one of the kindest businessmen I’ve ever met! He came prepared to “do battle” with these old pipes but unfortunately I had totally misunderstood and so misinformed him of what the problem was. He didn’t need the extra supplies he had purchased (based on what I’d told him) and then wouldn’t let me pay for them. (I told him I could “save them for the next time ‘cause you KNOW there will be a next time”.) But still he refused a payment.I have to say that John Shiver is more than fair; he is a walking example of the word honorable.

John is great to deal with...professional...courteous...knowledgable and quick to get the job done! I would highly recommend him/them to anyone looking for a local plumber that wont charge you an arm and a leg! Im a repeat customer and will use them for all my plumbing needs!

Shiver has been the absolute best for our needs. John has always helped us out in a timely, and cost-effective manner. Weve gotten quotes from other companies in the area, and Shiver has always undercut them in terms of pricing, and over-delivered in quality and speed. Im not planning on using anyone else, as long as hes around!

Shiver Plumbing was very quick to respond to my request for a leaky toilet. They were quick and efficient and cleaned everything before they left. They even helped me change a light bulb that I couldnt reach. I would recommend them for anyone needing plumbing repairs.

This is the second time I have called Shiver plumbing. Theres a reason for this. He answers his phone and gets to me quickly. His prices are reasonable and he fixes other little things he observes that need addressing. He also taught me how to clean my own shower, sink drains....etc. and as a single female I appreciate learning little things that I can do on my own. Very pleasant to do business with. I would highly recommend him if youre tired of getting screwed over by some dishonest/overpriced, well get to you when we get to you, kind of folks. :)

I recommend John highly. He has been my plumber for years. Always pleasant to talk to, explains the procedures clearly, gets there quickly, keeps house clean and charges a fair price. Big thumbs up.

Shiver Plumbing was able to come out, same day, to help me with a lot of open work orders at one of the restaurants, The Optimist Nashville. If you are having any plumbing problems, please do not hesitate to call Mr. Shivers. He is definitely the guy for the job!

Review 19 (2017-06-27 - Rating: 5)
Shiver plumbing was prompt to respond to my email and answered any questions I had. My quote for the tankless water heater was very reasonable. They were prompt on coming out to do the job. Overall, I had no issues or complaints with the job. Great communication throughout the process.

Had a couple of small issues with the toilet. While he was here I asked if hed be willing to replace a seized shower arm for me, which he was able to knock out immediately. Quick, polite, and professional. Will use again.

Great work! Shiver did a great job and was very polite and outgoing. Let us know everything that was going on and what he was doing throughout the whole process. Thanks.

He was quick, polite, and did good work. He fixed the broken pipe on my hose bib and then offered to plunge my sink (which was draining a little slow) for free.

Came on short notice and worked so efficiently. Fixed my problems quickly. Very happy with service!

Truly Exceptional Service! I called John at 10:30 this morning and by Noon he had my drains clear, everything cleaned up and restored to working order. Literally, an hour and a half from the time I first spoke with John to the time the job was complete! How incredible is that?! I talked with him about the issue I was having (waste water backing up into tubs) and he determined he could work it in between jobs since he was nearby. Will certainly recommend every chance I get!

Review 34 (2018-09-05 - Rating: 5)
I was expecting a major replacement issue. John took what we had, made some adjustments and totally corrected the problem. He could have easily proposed a much more expensive solution but actually took the time to provide the best solution for us.
