Element Plumbing
Company Overview
Expert plumbing for residential clients and property managers. Our services include water supply systems, pressure reduction, water recirculation, tankless and conventional water heaters, gas line installations, toilet repairs, faucet replacements, garbage disposal services, and remodeling.
Before starting Element Plumbing, I trained for ten years under two respected plumbing shops in Marin County. I was guided by two exceptional instructors, each owning successful plumbing shops in the area. Thanks to my first employer, I had the chance to enroll in a state-approved four-year plumbing apprenticeship program. I focused on developing a robust foundation to eventually start my own company, but only after my skills became second nature and I showed that I could be a valuable asset to my clients, our county, and my fellow tradespeople. And now, here we are!

Recommended Customer Reviews

I run a Handyman service and have used John's services on a couple remodel jobs. He is great to work with and flexible to meet my schedule. He is a pleasure to work with and gets the job done perfect the first time. He gives advice for me to fix an issue saving a service call. I appreciate the working relationship we have built. I can't recommend Element Plumbing enough.

Fast service, arrives exactly on time - no fuss - gets the job done fast and well. Very good quality of service, professional and reasonably priced. Offered a lot of excellent advice and will definitely use again.

If you're looking for an honest and trustworthy plumber who knows what they are doing, call John with Element. Plumbing problems can be extremely difficult to detect, and twice John has come through for us to find hard-to-detect type problems. When, I had recently received an incorrect evaluation from another plumber, he saved us thousands of $$ by finding out where the real issue was. He knows how to explain the issues clearly so you can understand it, and then he provides a solution to solve it. He doesn't just make assumptions, instead he really uses his knowledge and skills to make a correct evaluation. He knows what he's doing, and I am really impressed. Seriously, just stop reading these reviews and just go call John to fix your plumbing issues. You will not be disappointed.

John did a complete re pipe on my old house , His work was excellent and his price was very good . I got estimates from another plumber that was a ""friend"" and it would have been 30% higher than what John charged me for the same job .

Once again we used Element plumbing and were extremely satisfied. Our hot water heater was leaking from the top, we called late in the afternoon and John was there on the dot at the appointed time the following day. A dishonest plumber could have charged who knows what, as we had no idea what was wrong. John changed two leaking water lines (had all the parts) in no time at all, and only charged us $150. We will never use another plumber, and we highly recommend them!

I called this plumber because he got such good reviews. My rental unit had a small leak -- the tenant thought it was coming from the supply hose that connects to the toilet. I called John and he sent out one of his guys -- he charged $140 to fix it. (He was supposed to deduct $25 for Yelp, but neglected to do so.) The next day, the toilet started leaking in the exact same spot. So my tenant called John back and he told him there would be no charge for the service call, unless we needed additional parts (which seemed fair). But then, when his plumber came back out, he charged an additional $166 (including the Yelp discount this time) to put in a new fill valve and flapper. I called to complain, but John wasn't willing to refund any money. So basically, I paid more than $300 for two service calls that maybe took 30 minutes combined. I could have had a brand new toilet installed for less than that!

Highly recommend John and his protege Benjamin. They arrived at the scheduled time and were efficient in their use of time (and my money). John provided information and completed the services requested.
Absolutely will call Element Plumbing for future services and with a home of this age, probably will need them soon..

John went out of his way to restore water service after a broken pipe. Can't go wrong with this company.

John from Element plumbing is top notch. We had a few small jobs to do and he arrived only 90 minutes after my call (which was not an emergency and I expected a day or two wait). We turned the water off to replace a valve and instead of standing around waiting for the water to drain from the pipes, he asked me if there were any other jobs to do wihle we waited.
Then when he was finished he mentioned a bad hose into my compactor - he had worked for 40 minutes at this point and I would have had to pay for the hour anyway, so he could have left then and there, but he brought this problem to my attention and fixed the problem in another ten minutes at no additional cost or time.
Very helpful, courteous and professional. Decent rates. Would highly recommend.

I highly highly recommend John from Element Plumbing for ANY of your plumbing issues/needs. He has years of experience, and he has never let my family or my work down. After overpriced plumbers who have not fixed our problems, we finally found John. There is no way we will ever use anyone else! We have relied on John 10 years now for all of our plumbing needs. He redid my parents bathroom, AND has done the repairs for the retreat site at my work. John's knowledge within his trade, paired with his positive attitude, integrity in character, and fair pricing makes him the best guy for the job!
