Recommended Customer Reviews

Our sink clogged because glass shattered down the drain and somehow disengaged the garbage disposal switch.
Joe came over and he was efficient, knowledgeable, friendly and professional. I reached out to 4 companies in total but I'm glad I stuck with R.P.S. Also, the two women who helped me over the phone were great with following up.
Only con is that I called around 9am and was told the technician would show up between 3-5pm. I thought I would get a call around 2:30pm to let me know the technician was on their way. Nothing happened until 5:30pm when I called a third time to see what was going on.
Because Joe's service was fast and helpful; I
would still give them another call if plumbing services are needed.

We had an issue where there was no water pressure at all in the house except for the kitchen faucet. And what was coming out of the other faucets wasn't pretty. Joseph came out and diagnosed the situation and quickly assembled a team to fix the problem. Joseph, Tim and Josh worked with focus and care and got it done. They were communicative and professional. I will definitely reach out to RPS again.

David assisted me over the phone to help me with a quick question about replacing a water hose hookup for my fridge. It was very nice of him for saving the hassle of scheduling such a quick job. I will for sure go back to these guys for any future plumbing needs!

Needed a plumber asap. Ribbs Plumbing was a recommendation. Mike and his co-worker came out within a few hours after our call - Cannot say enough about Mike's expertise, honesty, and his EXCELLENT SERVICE. We will have him back for more plumbing projects. Would highly recommend him. Thank you

David came with his apprentice, Lau, within 2 hours of calling and promptly diagnosed the cause of a problem that had stumped several plumbers and handymen that I had consulted since the problem first appeared about 15 years ago! AND he fixed the current main problem that I was calling him for (no hot water in the shower). His rates were comparable to other plumbers, he was very professional and helpful and NEAT, and accommodated my tight schedule perfectly-completing the job in 1.5 hours! Will definitely call them again.

Great honest service. Excellent job. Will use again.

We had a leak coming from our toilet which we tried to fix ourselves by replacing the wax ring. During that repair we found the flange was broken and needed replacement. We reached out to R.P.S (and several other providers) for a quote. R.P.S. was very responsive, extremely courteous, and did very high quality work.
David was on time to our appointment window, wore shoe covers to protect our house, did a quick eval of the situation, and was able to repair immediately during the consult. He was very polite and professional!
The repair came with a 5 year warranty which is great, especially since we chose to do the partial repair rather than a full replacement of the flange (planning to remodel soon!). Even the invoicing process was easy, I received pictures of the work for my records and R.P.S keeps copies for reference if needed in the future as well. It was so easy to work with R.P.S I highly recommend them!

We had someone from RPS come out to fix a drain. The actual work was fine; the person who came a good job identifying the source of the leak and coming up with an innovative way to repair it that prevented us from having to take on a much larger project. My one star review is because we have been trying for the the last three weeks to get a copy of the invoice, which we need for tax purposes, and the office manager has not responded to multiple phone calls. At this point we're still waiting to hear back; if we can get a copy of the invoice/receipt mailed to us, then we'd be able to provide a review just on the quality of the work done

David was great. We had a water main burst below our driveway. David was able to find the leak location, make a small cut down to it through the concrete, repair it, and patch the concrete to look as if he was never there. Amazing service.

Joseph did a great job! He gave a few options depending on what we wanted to get done currently. Very professional, honest, and fair. I will recommend RPS to my friends whenever they need plumbing issues fixed.
