Company Overview

Residential plumbing solutions for clients and property owners. We handle water supply, pressure regulation, water recirculation, tankless and traditional water heaters, gas lines, toilets, faucets, garbage disposals, and remodeling projects.

Before starting Element Plumbing, I trained for ten years under two respected plumbing shops in Marin County. I learned from two outstanding mentors, both of whom own thriving local plumbing businesses. With the support of my first shop, I was able to join a state-sanctioned four-year plumbing apprenticeship program. I intentionally created a solid base to one day launch my own business, but only after my work became instinctive and I proved my worth as a plumber to my clients, the community, and my fellow tradesmen. And here we stand today!

John is awesome. We so appreciate all the work he did on our very old house. Helped us come up with creative solutions to problems and is super knowledgable and efficient!

John is back and working in Northern California...dry those tears. I just spoke to him and he's coming to my house tomorrow to fix a valve. He installed plumbing for a remodel bath and did a perfect job.

OMG I can't believe you moved!!!! SO SAD. I was literally going to call you tomorrow, so I looked up your phone # on yelp and saw this. BOO!

Texas, you better treat John right. California doesn't want him to leave.

We found John to be a moving target. We had much to coordinate for taking out old tub/tile and redo as shower (plumbing, tile, glass, inspections). Being our only bathroom, timing, communication & teamwork were essential.

John was a real Diva! Hard to reach, suddenly busy with other jobs - cost us an extra week. He was rude, angry most of the time, did not show at stated times & didn't call. Complained constantly about how hard the work was & charged us more than quoted, and did not do everything he said he would. We did not need the ADDED stress.

I called yesterday to get a drain unstopped. The guy seemed together and tried to accommodate my need for speed.

However, he didn't show for the scheduled work this morning, didn't answer when I called, nor has called back.

As a tile contractor ( London Tile ) I frequently need to refer a plumber to my clients for their remodel and repair projects. John is at the top of my plumber list because of his prompt response, reliability and excellent work.
He has worked on my own house and our rental property many times, always with satisfactory results.

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.

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 .
