Posted on Google Fraser MonkTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I just had the distinct pleasure of meeting Jost, and using his company JW Mechanical Inc. From the moment he came into the kitchen to look at our dead garbage disposal—it was like watching a machine with precision, skill, and confidence operating at the highest level. What I admired the most, was his honesty. After taking it apart we talked and decided we didn’t need a new one at all. We went with new piping and accessories (that he supplied on the spot) and secured the wires in an electric box—in case the next owners of the house want to put in a disposal system. I would highly suggest getting Jost involved in any plumbing issues and I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending his incredible talent. It’s nice to know we have this level of expertise on the Island. Incredible experience all the way around.Posted on Google Frieda TangTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jost is the best plumber we ever worked with! Very professional. Highly recommended!!!Posted on Google James McAughrenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Hi My experience with JWN mechanical was very positive. Jost came to my house faster than I could have expected. The repair was quick and efficient. Jost gave me the service needed at an unbelievably cheap price. I’ve been burned by unscrupulous plumbers in the past so this experience gave me hope in humanity Lol. Thank you Jost! JamesPosted on Google Liam BradleyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jost at JWN Mechanical offered and delivered a very affordable service with professionalism and honesty. The work he carried out was excellent. Jost and the whole team that he brought along took great care and attention to the job at hand and the final clean-up was a great unexpected bonus. I would have no hesitation at all to highly recommend Jost and JWM Mechanical .Posted on Google Joanne GallowayTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were fortunate to have hired Jost, of JWN Mechanical, to carry out the challenging job of replacing all the Poly-B pipes in our home. In addition he has now replumbed our ensuite bathroom, to accommodate a complete renovation. Jost was not only creative in his planning of the many tasks involved, but he was also professional and responsive to our needs. It was a pleasure to have him do the work. We most definitely would recommend Jost & JWN Mechanical to any homeowner who is requiring plumbing work.Posted on Google Carla McBethTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We are extremely happy with Jost's work. He replaced the PolyB in our newly purchased rancher in Parksville. He was efficient, detailed, and very responsive. He's also very supportive of his industry colleagues. We are new to the area and he was quick to recommend other businesses that would assist us with our renovations. I would happily recommend him as your "go-to" plumber!Posted on Google Francis ChanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

January 3, 2026 ⭐️Fast Arrival and installation ⭐️Quality Craftmanship ⭐️Fair Pricing Our bathrooms are really tiny, so having the right size toilet really matters. We had a toilet in our furnace room that finally we decided to have installed. It was down there for years, as we called another plumber and he told us how to install it ourselves. Well, my husband finally decided to get it out, and we called Jost at JWM Mechanical, and he set a date for the next week, days before Christmas to get it done. Within an afternoon, a few hours because the flange was broken, it took longer but it was really a good job he did. It works perfectly, and it was a dual flusher we found out. So we also decided to replace our other 2 toilets which are in really tiny bathrooms, and I was really so glad Jost recommended to me to go to EMCO, and look at their selection of toilets, as I looked in Home Depot and Reno and didn’t find what I wanted. I chose the elongated compact one piece, which is so compact and really fits well in those tiny bathrooms, where we had the round front style before. They both were perfect. Jost also gave us a discount on the 2 toilets from EMCO. It actually gives us more space, we can actually open the cabinet drawers now for both bathrooms. And they both look really great. The downstairs toilet is really awesome, and elongated is especially needed, as well as the flushing is whisper quiet, and a different flushing system altogether. The old one ran on and on. So thanks for all your work you did, especially getting the one pieces fitting nicely around the hose line coming out of the floor and adjusting one of the hose lines out of the way slightly so I could install these type of toilets. KimPosted on Google K DTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This was a ‘ middle of the night’ plumbing emergency. Water leaking through a pot light from landlords suite down into ours. We first saw it at 1030 pm laid towels, bucket etc and desperately tried to let the ppl upstairs know. No luck. I tried at least 5 nanaimo plumbing companies that advertised 24/7 service. No luck there either. I was told by one that without landlords permission they couldn’t enter our suite. All the others simply didn’t answer. 4 hours later I decide I need to try one more … happened to be Jost at JWN. He called back immediately. 3 am. He tried to walk us through getting hot water valve shut off… but to no avail. He arrived about 15 minutes later. Shut water off at the road. Took fixture down safely. Etc. Fast, efficient service in the middle of the night. Very reasonable price. Amazing service.
