Backwater Plumbing LLC describes itself on its website as a full service plumbing company specializing in residential service. A recent customer said Jason put in a new tub/shower and a drain for a washing machine, fixed a drainage issue he noticed at the bathroom sink, and hooked up the washer. They also had him install a heat pump hot water heater, and said he brought help to carry the new one down and the old one out. A recent customer said Jason is fast to respond and will expedite if an emergency. A 2022 customer said a shower started running while turned off on a Sunday; after messages to about 7 companies, Jason was the one who called back, came out immediately and capped the pipes so the water could go back on, then returned to install new fixtures. A 2022 customer whose insurer had dropped coverage over the plumbing under a vanity said Jason checked it, said within minutes there was nothing wrong with it, and conveyed that to the insurance company. A 2021 customer who uses Jason on house flips said he has installed a tub and surround, vanities, kitchen sinks and faucets, a water treatment system and toilets. A 2021 customer said Jason installed a shower and moved washer and dryer plumbing, finishing in one day. A 2021 customer who needed a new pressure tank, a sediment filter and new fixtures said Jason's pricing did not exceed his quote, and that he came out the same day to adjust the filter housing at no charge. A recent one-star customer said a water heater was installed with insufficient gauge wire so the breaker kept tripping, that they had to remedy the problem themselves, and that their calls, texts and pictures about later water heater issues were ignored.
Jason has excellent communication, is reliable and prompt, and goes above and beyond at his job. His quote was comparable to the other plumbers I had look at my bathroom, but I had a gut feeling that he would be the best for the job. I am so happy with his work. He put in a new tub/shower and a drain for a washing machine. While he was working, he noticed a drainage issue from my bathroom sink and went ahead and fixed it while he was here. He even hooked up my washer for me. Super customer service. I highly recommend him, and am very happy with all the work he did. Also had him install my heat pump hot water heater. He was a champ and brought help to carry the new one down and the old one out. It’s been working great and so much better on my electric bill. Very smart, prepared, prompt and efficient. So glad to have found such a reliable plumber!
Jason will always be my first call for plumbing needs. He is fast to respond, will expedite if an emergency, and is friendly and reasonably priced. He does a great job at clarifying issues and providing options for solutions.
I always call Anthony for any water/plumbing issues. He responds quickly, very efficient and great pricing. If I want something done correctly and time efficient he’s the person I go to every time!
He installed a water heater for us, used insufficient gauge wire so breaker kept tripping, had to remedy problem myself because “I’m not an electrician”. Has ignored my calls, texts, pictures of the problem, etc when I’ve run into other issues with the water heater. I’ve found him to be most unreliable when we need him most. Find someone else.
Thank you Jason for showing up with a day's notice to take care of some frost-protection for me. Jason was fast (efficient), thorough, very knowledgeable - and a fantastic bedside manner. He's happy to answer any question. Reasonable rates, and terrific service. Definitely call Backwater when you need a plumber!
