In addition to doing great heating and plumbing work for us, Jefferson recently built us a new laundry room. In order to save costs, we asked Jefferson to do all of the structural work (plumbing, cabinets, countertop, other woodwork) and leave the cosmetics and appliances to us. We couldnt be happier! The countertop and cabinet are top quality. The room looks and works great. The plumbing work passed on first inspection and weve had no issues. Price was very fair. A highly recommend Jefferson for custom work.(Wish I had a before picture to compare... but the room was so ugly that we never even took a pic).

Jefferson Plumbing came to our rescue this week when our drain backed up, leaving us unable to use the toilets, showers, or run water. Our regular drain company told us that the clog was between the house trap and the street and couldn’t be reached with standard equipment because our crawl space made it inaccessible. The only solution was to install an outside cleanout, which would take several days. We called Jefferson, and Mr. Jefferson himself came out to take a look. With his help and coordination with another drain company, the clog was removed by the end of the day, restoring things to normal. Mr. Jefferson stopped by twice that day to see how things were proceeding. We are very grateful to Mr. Jefferson and his staff (thank you, Kathy) for all your persistence and competence. This is outstanding service!

Weve been using Jefferson Plumbing for a wide range of services for 30 years and have had only positive experiences. Their pricing is transparent and the service is top-notch. Compared with prices neighbors have paid for comparable services, Jeffersons pricing is often significantly less for better service. This is especially true when compared to larger, regional firms. They had long before earned our trust, but in 2020, our water heater failed on New Years Eve; they went over and above to get a new one installed the same day. Cant say enough good things about them.

This is the first time I used Jefferson plumbing and was happy with all their service. Jerry installed a new powder room sink and faucet. He was very nice and his work was excellent. The cost of having the work done was reasonable and the work was excellent. I would for sure recommend Jefferson Plumbing.

Jefferson has done great work for me for a reasonable price. Just recently, when they came out and couldnt fix something (a different contractor was needed), they didnt charge me a dime, and called to check up on me the next day! Very fair service and Ill be going back to them in the future.Update: Jefferson did all of the plumbing and carpentry work for our new laundry room. Everything works great and we love the cabinet and countertop we got! Jill was also a pleasure to work with and extremely responsive.

I knew I called the right Plumbing company to replace my condo unit water shut-off valve! My shut-off valve was over 30 yrs old ( original). it was functional a year ago but this week it would not turn when I needed my water heater replaced.I called Jefferson because they have done works in our developments for years and they would know where and how to shut -off the building water valve so they can replace my unit valve.This whole task was completed in 20 mins!!THANK YOU!Caroline

Jefferson Plumbing did an amazing job. They check all the boxes:☑ Affordable☑ Quality☑ On-time☑ On-budgetIm always nervous hiring a new service and they came highly recommended. They came to estimate promptly and then we scheduled the service to replace my hot-water heater the next day! They did not disappoint and now they have a customer for life! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Excellent service!! Karl came over to provide and estimate. Being an engineer, I already took the wall plate off and removed the stem that was giving me problems with my shower. I was fully prepared to get an estimate for Jefferson to go through the back side of the wall (my daughters bedroom) to access and replace the fixture (oh joy, I would get pay $$$ for the installation of a new fixture AND repair a wall). Long story short, Karl had a special tool to pop out the old cartridge. He asked if I want to replace the cartridge or the entire fixture. He actually asked me! No BS. I opted to replace the cartridge (he had a new cartridge on his truck). All done. No hole through my daughters bedroom wall. No need for a new fixture. Just paid for a service call and the part. $150 all in. I cant recall the last time I paid just $150 for a contractor to come to my home AND fix the problem. A great experience!FYI we plan to do a lot of renovation work to our home in the next few years. Jefferson will definitely be a preferred contractor.

I’ve trusted Jefferson Plumbing for some 20 years with my home plumbing needs and have always found them skillful, reliable, and reasonably priced. They look for the most cost efficient fixes and they stand behind their work. Can’t ask for better in a plumbing service.

I am completely in awe of this company -- a first time user, and an absolute fan! I called less than two hours ago to see if I could get an appointment for two leaky sinks and one clogged drain, and they said someone could be here within the hour! I said this was by no means an emergency, but they were able to do - and just as they said, arrived promptly, diagnosed and repaired all issues quickly and professionally. Additionally, when the plumber said he had one of the parts but that it was back at his shop, he called the home office and 10 minutes later another van pulled up with the part! I was completely blown away by their responsiveness and professionalism. I was prepared to wait weeks as tends to be the case nowadays, but this company treated our issues as top priority. Many, many thanks for all the help!

Very friendly and extremely fast response to an emergency call for a broken water pipe. Could not be more impressed. And very reasonable invoice. Turned a bad day into a wonderful one!

Friday after thanksgiving we woke up to find we had no hot water and water coming out of our water heater in the basement. I called several plumbers and no one returned my call or was closed and thanks to google came across N.C Jefferson. I called, they answered the phone and despite it being Black Friday and down several techs, they made the effort to get two guys out to my house and installed a new water heater. They were professional, friendly, and beyond helpful and I’m very grateful they could help us! Will definitely use them again and would highly recommend!

On Friday morning I saw that my water heater was leaking. After calling around to a number of plumbers, Jefferson answered the call and Jackie diagnosed the problem and by 3:00pm that day, two trucks arrived and by 5pm I had a new heater installed and working. Great service and a real credit to the company.. Thank you Sean.

Jefferson saved me a ton of money on a difficult repair of an ancient bathtub faucet for which replacement parts were no longer made. I think of NC Jefferson as a high-end plumber, as a few years ago we used them to replace shower fixtures with premium diverter, shower head and handles, and they werent cheap. But they identified a special issue a cheap plumber may have missed and did a good job. So I called them back for this job. Jeff W identified that the previous plumber who fixed it, a cheapo plumber hired through American Home Shield -- which you should never use, btw -- seemed to have shoved the old stem in place in a way that broke it. But the fixtures were so outdated, a new stem couldnt be found without replacing the diverter and everything else with a new system. So he managed to do a custom repair of the old stem -- the time for which he didnt charge me; he said he did it on his own time between other jobs -- and charged me just for the time he spent time removing it and installing the repaired stem. Then, after installing it, the other stem also turned out to be leaking. But it was so antiquated and poorly “repaired” a few years ago by the American Home Shield guy, the stem was stripped and couldn’t be removed. So he brought in another Jefferson employee, Pete, who happened to be nearby, to bring in another specialty tool and help to wrest it out without breaking it. The two of them worked on it with a variety of tools on both sides of the wall behind the fixture for about 45 minutes until they were able to complete a custom repair of the antiquated setup without replacing the whole system, which is what a normal plumber would have done. $238 for perhaps 4 man hours of labor, including the work Jeff did on his own time. Very impressed.

Their repair guys just finished with our house moments ago (thank you so much to you all: Jeff, Carl, Pete, and Shawn)! Our bathroom had mysteriously started leaking, and they came, diagnosed the problem, and fixed it. Super professional, very considerate. Seriously some of the most informative, nice, and efficient people weve had do stuff on the house. Two big thumbs up. Thanks again!

We have a house in Princeton Junction, NJ that has required lots of replacements and service over its 33 years of life.About 15 years ago, we had a major leak in the city water pipe into our house ... it erupted on the easement. and we had to fix it fast since we now had a dry home.Jefferson provided us the best quote by far ... and three of his workers came out to dig out the easement, find the valve ... way down deep ... and repair it We recently used Jefferson for a complete master bathroom remodeling ... top to bottom ... everything new ... and they did a great job.We have had them in for other work and they do what the job requires and not what earns them the most money.Weve been using the company that installed the original furnace 33 years ago for routine maintenance of furnace and AC. It is a reputable local NJ company with good consumer online ratings. We now have a 20 year old leaky A/C unit and asked them for an estimate to replace it. In 2020, the refrigerant R-22 it uses will be banned, so repairs are a waste of money.I was told that we need to also replace the furnace heat exchanger since it was not compatible with a new A/C. If we have to do that, we might as well install a new furnace.After the maintenance evaluator left, my wife sent Jefferson a text message for an evaluation.Within a few minutes ... she got a call that Bruce Jefferson (founder of the company) was in the area and could stop by. Five minutes later he showed up. .I complained What took you so long?He explained what type of unit we needed and provided a separate quote on the A/C and A/C plus new furnace. The heat exchanger was sound ... but the old furnace would not have the efficiency of a new 2 stage fan furnace.I compared the maintenance company quotes with Jeffersons.Replacing just the A/C was 24% LOWER and the Jefferson AC had a higher SEER efficiencyFor doing both the A/C AND the furnace, the Jefferson quote was 58 % lower! Nuff said.

The work was done quickly. It was of excellent quality. The plumber explained that a leak could not be fixed without damaging the faucet. We agreed that he would replace it with a new faucet. I liked that he gave both options.

Jeff did a great job -- as usual -- on all of our plumbing issues. He knows our house and is very easy to work with!

Review 31 (2021-10-01 - Rating: 5)
The hot water heater in my rental home broke, and since he was out of the country, the owner recommended that I call Jefferson, who responded quickly by sending two young plumbers to diagnose the problem. These guys were professional, friendly and really knew their stuff, recommending a replacement. (the tank was 13 years old.) Two days later the decision to replace the broken tank was made on our end and Kathy at Jefferson squeezed the job in quickly since I had been without hot water for several days. The team she sent (two different men) were equally friendly, efficient, knowledgable, and professional. They installed the tank and left my place looking spotless. Hot water again!Im so impressed with Jeffersons sincere willingness to help out a new client in distress, especially since they still had jobs related to the recent floods. Everyone I dealt with in this company (2 women on the phone and 4 plumbers) was a pleasure to work with.These are hard days for everybody. We are all learning patience. But it is such a bonus to work with a company that treats clients with such kindness and concern. I highly recommend Jefferson Plumbing and Heating, will recommend them to friends and will not hesitate to hire them for future jobs.

N.C. Jefferson Plumbing Heating & AC is hands down the best company in the area. We had a faucet leak on a Saturday night: the plumber was at our house in under twenty minutes. He worked quickly to solve the problem and was very transparent about pricing/best faucets to replace our old one, etc. We will be using this company for all of our heating, plumbing, and AC needs from now on.
