Effective Plumbing and Drain Cleaning

Jane F.

Over a year since calling with a plumbing problem. Next day appointment scheduled. Arrived exactly on time. AGAIN!! Fixed the problem with my toilet and sink drain quickly and efficiently. Amazing young man running his own family business. Anyone in the Merced/ Atwater area, if you need a GREAT plumber, call Joshua. Five stars in not enough . :)

Fantastic service right from the start. Polite, professional, and even helped me with an impromptu ""how do I drain my water heater"" question. Josh and his daughter, Emily, explained the work they were doing and both were fast and efficient. I WILL call Effective Plumbing anytime I have a plumbing issue.

Helped us with a major plumbing issue right after we bought our house October 2014. So polite, friendly and knew exactly what they were doing. Didn't charge a ridiculous amount like a lot of the other plumbers we looked at. Haven't had a problem with our plumbing since he came out. (Plus he pretty much guaranteed the new pipe he installed for us for life!)
They are so awesome! I wouldn't think twice about hiring them again in the future.

First time used this plumber he was friendly, patient and professional. I could always call him and be guaranteed he would fix the problem. No need to look for another when you get the best the first time.

Recently I had an issue with my hot water heater. I was disappointed to learn my usual choice of plumber was booked for three weeks. I called Effective Plumbing and was pleasantly surprised to find out they could squeeze me onto that day's schedule! After arriving they quickly resolved my hot water issue and tackled another problem with my toilet. Being able to take a hot shower and flush a toilet correctly are such privileges. Thank you for the great and timely service. I have a new usual choice when it comes to a local plumber. They are a 5 star company.

This young man has not even perform his services yet and I'm already impressed. He will be there tomorrow to perform the services and I am sure that the job you will do will be as professional as he sounds on the phone.

Had Joshua visit twice and each time we been pleased. He even had to crawl under the house to reroute old pipe. He guaranteed his job but dis not have to call him back. Licenced and reasonable priced. He does not cut corners unlike a previous plumber from Merced Company.

Our kitchen sink was backing up, I tried all the things I could think of doing, but nothing worked. Because this was a Saturday getting a plumber to come out is not easy and they want to charge an excessive amount. I saw Effective Plumbing on Yelp and called the number. Talked to the owner, Josh, he was able to come out within the hour and within 30 minutes had my drain running smoothly. He was very professional and very reasonable $58.50, on a weekend! He even gave advice on a product to keep the drains running clean and another product if you have a problem with roots. I will definitely call again and recommend to my friends.

I called in the morning about a washer draining issue and they came out right away that same day. He was very nice and very professional. I HIGHLY recommend utilizing their services, and I will be doing so myself in the future!
