Originally from Novato, I became a plumber in 1996.
Tired of the big plumbing companies in Marin, I started my business in Novato in the year 2002, following my departure from a local firm.
By then, I already had 6 years experience in both plumbing and heating.
As I started my business, my loyal customers that was following me for years continued to support me.
I always wear a belt - haha! :)
I am Bill Johnson, hold a plumbing contractor license with more than 19 years in the field in the Marin and Sonoma areas. I believe in traditional business practices - you call, I respond (or respond swiftly). Once we schedule a time, I will show up when we agreed, prepared to get to work. It’s that easy!
I run the business myself, & I don’t have a team, & I don’t have a fleet. There is no receptionist at Bill Johnson Plumbing, there's just me. That means I show up prepared, set to address your plumbing needs. I’m confident you’ll be satisfied with the results, so reach out today!
My birthplace is Belgium, I come from a military family. My dad was in the Army, and I lived my first 12 years in West Berlin, Germany. Prior to the wall’s collapse!
The year 1980, my family moved to Novato, CA, and I’ve been living there or nearby ever since. I currently make my home in American Canyon, California.
In the same year I began my business, I met my wonderful wife, and in 2004 I had my first child, my son. In 2008, I had a beautiful daughter. By 2010, I had my life sorted out, and married my wonderful partner, and acquired a house.
Currently, I dedicate my time to work, and play with my family as much as possible!

Recommended Customer Reviews

Bill came on a recommendation from my real estate agent over a year ago and I have been using him ever since! He's replaced a water heater for me, did the plumbing work for my kitchen remodel and, most recently, replaced a sink. Top notch work each and every time!

Bill is super friendly and even gave me tips on DIY solutions for my other issues. He came out and helped me on my water pressure regulator. My water pressure was at 120 psi. Thanks for saving my pipes!

Nothing but 5 star reviews, I was skeptical. However I called him to give me quotes on replacing my water heater with a tankless and with a tank.
He came out at my convenience and we talked about the options and prices. Right from the beginning I was at ease and not pressured, he know his stuff and just laid it out for me. I decided just to have him replace the water heater with such a good price and quality. He came back on-time and finished in the the time he said he would, even though he to correct more problems that I had hidden behind the tank. When finished the area was cleaner than when he started. As a plumber you don't need to look any farther and Bill himself, well he is the kind of guy you who love to talk to during summer day bar-b-que.

I found Bill Johnson Plumbing via Yelp as needed a plumber to install a new hot water heater ASAP and I do not live in the area. Bill was as friendly, honest, and hard working as one could want. He did a great job in a very timely manner. Would definitely hire him again.

Bill did a great job! Reasonably priced, efficient, and personable. Can't ask for more (from your plumber)!

Bill is the guy to call. I made the mistake of hiring a handy man to do a plumbing job and Bill saved my bacon. He fixed the leaking pipe IN the slab and finished the job like it should have been done in the first place. I learned my lesson, and now Bill is my go to plumber. He got to me quickly and the cost was quite reasonable.
Thanks Bill.

Bill was great! He came out on extremely short notice to troubleshoot and fix the gas line my dad was having trouble installing. Came to my house at the end of the day after working all day and stayed late to make sure the problem was fixed. He is extremely trustworthy and has reasonable prices. I have been burned by plumbers in the past. I highly recommend Bill Johnson Plumbing.

Bill is simply the sweetest & most honest plumber (and person) I have ever met. A pipe in my front yard burst. It was ""after hours"" and I couldn't get ANYONE to help me. My neighbors ran to my aid, as did an AT&T employee who happened to be driving by. None of us could budge the water main to shut it off. Bill arrived quickly, shut off the water, fixed the issue, waited for everything to work and was also a pleasure to hang with. His wife is so sweet and kind, too! There is NO NEED FOR ANY OTHER PLUMBER. JUST CALL BILL.

Bill and his wife helped my neighbor with a broken pipe. She called and 20 minutes later the water was off and the assessment was started. Great job

RELIABLE, COMPETENT, HONEST, CLEAN, AND EASY TO WORK WITH. Great plumber and helpful!
Last July my water heater stopped heating water. Two of the larger local plumbing companies recommended replacement, and their quotes were OUTRAGEOUS!...$2,900+ for a 40 gal. water heater, simply because it is located in a hallway closet in an upper level condo.
Bill insisted on trying to fix the problem thermostat/igniter first, and he did so in about 1.5 hrs. He disassembled the igniter and soldered in a tiny little part onsite.
My 26+ y/o water heater has worked great since then!
Needless to say, we will be calling Bill first for all future plumbing issues.:-).
