I’m a licensed journeyman plumber with over 20 years of hands-on experience. My focus is simple: do the job right, to state plumbing code standards, the first time.
I handle everything from pipe and drain repairs to toilets, showers, faucets, garbage disposals, gas lines, and water treatment systems—installation, replacement, and repair. I never cut corners, and I stand behind my work on every job, big or small.
You may find cheaper options, but I take the time to diagnose the issue properly, explain your options clearly, and deliver long-lasting solutions, not quick fixes.
If you’re looking for a dependable, code-compliant plumber you can feel confident having in your home, I’d be glad to help.

James was the best. First, he texted with me in advance of my buying a reverse osmosis machine, which was incredibly helpful for my planning. He also addressed each of my concerns in advance including how he would drill through my quartz countertop and how he would install the connection from the RO machine to my refrigerator (which is located across the kitchen from my sink and required him to go through a crawl space to make everything work). He then stayed with me after installation to help me log into the app and explain all next steps as to how I can best use the machine. I could not recommend him more highly.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
James with J.A.Z. Plumbing was absolutely amazing! He came out right away and quickly fixed the plumbing issues I was having. What really stood out was how knowledgeable he was. He took the time to explain what was going on and clearly knew exactly what he was doing.
On top of that, his pricing was incredibly fair, especially for the quality of service and how quickly he was able to help. It’s not always easy to find someone who is knowledgeable, reliable, responsive, AND reasonably priced.
I’ll definitely be calling James again for any plumbing needs and would highly recommend J.A.Z. Plumbing to anyone looking for a great plumber!

He was super helpful. He could win the faucet I had wasn't working. He helped me find one that would fit and came back a second time to install my water filter. I would definitely use him again. He was also very clean and cleaned after himself.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
There’s multiple factors that go into the price of a project. The contractor has to take into consideration the labor hours, material costs, travel time, and equipment costs.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
After finding out what the customers needs are I will answer any questions they may have, and provide them with an explanation of the work. After we explore the process and any options, we can go over pricing.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I completed a 5 year state approved apprenticeship program to obtain my plumbing and gas fitting license. I now have 20 years of experience in the plumbing industry.
