My roots are in Novato, I entered the plumbing field in the year 1996.
Dissatisfied with big plumbing firms in Marin, I founded my company in Novato in 2002, following my departure from a local firm.
At that point, I had accumulated six years of experience in both plumbing and heating.

As I started my business, my loyal customers that had been with me for years stayed with me.

I always wear a belt - haha! :)

Bill Johnson, hold a plumbing contractor license with 19+ years of experience in both Marin and Sonoma counties. I prefer the old school way of doing business - you call, I respond (or get back to you promptly). After setting an appointment, I arrive when we agreed, ready to work. It’s that easy!

I operate the company myself, & there are no employees here, & no fleet of trucks. There is no receptionist at Bill Johnson Plumbing, it’s just me. This ensures I come prepared, set to address your plumbing needs. I know you'll be happy when the job is complete, so give me a try!

My birthplace is Belgium, I was a military brat. My dad served in the military, and I lived my first 12 years in West Berlin, Germany. Before the fall of the Berlin Wall!
In the year 1980, we relocated to Novato, California, and I’ve called that area home ever since. I now live in American Canyon, California.
In the same year I began my business, I met my wonderful wife, and in 2004, my son was born. In 2008, my daughter was born. By 2010, I had my life sorted out, and married my gal, and purchased a home.
Currently, I dedicate my time to work, and enjoy time with my family as much as I can!

Bill is so great at his job, I think of him as the Titan of Plumbing! My Mom and I adore this man - he is skilled, professional, explains all the work to be done (in a way that doesn't make you feel like you're a dope) and ALWAYS gets the job done perfectly! He has installed my new O.A. Smith water heater, completely rebuilt my 3 Mansfield toilets (using Mansfield parts!) and most recently fixed a nasty leak from a Moen sink in our 3rd bath. There is nothing Bill can't do and he seems to always make time for us, which my Mom and I love. We like him so much, I invited him to join us for a Beef Stroganoff lunch (he preferred to keep working and turned me down, but I always appreciate his dedication and enthusiasm! For us, there is no one we trust or like more. You will never be disappointed, if you hire Bill!

I have used Bill's Plumbing 4 or 5 times since I found him in 2012. He has always returned my calls promptly, and he shows up on time with the right tools. He has accommodated my schedule every time. Look at some of the pictures he has on Facebook. Truly a professional. He doesn't charge enough for what he does. It doesn't get any better than this!

Bill Johnson was a pleasure to work with. I wanted to change out three old toilets. He gave me lots of advice and went to considerable trouble checking out available options for me. He installed my new toilets carefully, and adjusted for one uneven old tile floor so the toilet would sit properly.
He was fun to talk to, and certainly knew all the ins and outs of toilets and how they work.

Bill Johnson is the best plumber ever! He is full of integrity and his attention to detail is second to none. As a bonus, he's also really funny.
We completely trust Bill because he's a straight shooter. He will be up front about the knowns and the unknowns of any job. There are no games. And, he'll take into account any budget restrictions.
We live in an older house. Every time he works on something in our home, we know it won't require any follow up for years to come. We recommend Bill without reservation.

5...HUNDRED STARS!! The last honest, hilarious, kind and super-skilled plumber on the planet. And that's not an exaggeration.
Bill came out because after we attempted and failed at replacing our own toilet, we knew we needed a professional. Previous owners had rigged the flange, and we were super worried it was going to turn into a plumbing nightmare. It didn't, thanks to Bill. To boot, he swapped out our garbage disposal while he was here. And??? He's a genuine, sweet, funny and honest guy. Like, seriously, I want this man to come over for Thanksgiving.
The following week I called last minute to see if he could come to our friend's house to fix her shower nozzle, as a surprise birthday gift for her. No problem! On time to the minute, yet again, cheerful, explanatory and fast.
Honestly? I didn't feel like he charged enough, so on both visits I tipped. So should you!
I am so, SO happy to have a go-to plumber who I know is not just skilled and honest, but a genuinely good person. Damn, that's rare.
Especially if you live in American Canyon, or thereabouts, stop looking, and call Bill. Now. Honestly? I keep finding myself looking for plumbing issues, just so I can give Bill a ring! Funny, but true!!

Great guy! I found his business on yelp and realized we were neighbors. Super nice and does excellent work. He works fast and his prices are great. He will get back to you very fast if you give him a call!! I like that Bill uses high quality materials when replacing any parts as opposed to other companies and then charge u an arm and leg for it to break or be defective a few months later. Will for sure use him again if we have plumbing problems. Thanks Bill!!

Bill was referred to us by a friend and we couldn't have asked for better! Long story as short as possible: Our water main broke and, because we live on a private road, it was all ours to deal with! Calls to Gotelli, Gene Burch, Petersen, Benjamin Franklin, and American Leak led to estimates between $14,000 and $20,000 with everyone recommending we change out the entire line. Admittedly, it is a 50 year old galvanized pipe, but when we asked about addressing just the leak first and dealing with the bigger problem if and when we got to that bridge, no one really wanted to do that.

I was just getting ready to bite the bullet when my friend told me about Bill. I called him, he was honest about how busy he was and that he was a one man company, and we scheduled a time for him to come out. He came listed to my story and then did what none of the other guys did..grabbed a shovel and dug a hole so that he could see what was going on. He found the leak, explained just about every possible scenario, and told us what we needed to do.

(There are a lot of other parts and circumstances to this story that led to Bill not doing the actual work but he has called and texted and checked in every step of the way.)

Bill is truly skilled in his trade and, as he explained to me, is just wanting to do a good job, give the customer what they want, and not in it for the ""sell"". He will definitely be my go to plumber for whatever I need around the house or for when the rest of the galvanized pipe gives way!

Bill Johnson is amazing! We had peter levi come to our house for a clogged sink and it was $1,000 for them to do that job and It did not even clear the clog. They stated it was not fixable and it was a $10,000 job to dig new pipes etc. A good friend told us about Bill. He then came, snaked the drain with in the hour and it has been good ever since. You know those honest people you do not try to rip you off and get the job done? That's Bill Johnson!
