He was able to fit us in quickly, did a great job and was a very pleasant professional to deal with. We took extra business cards to give to our friends who are looking for a reputable plumber. Thank you Jost. MARK COFFEYTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jost has done impeccable work for our multi bathroom Reno. We had a complete tear out down to studs. Bidets, showers, tub, sinks, wall taps and water spouts, steam shower and in floor heating loops were installed. A toilet leak happened on one weekend and Jost showed up that day in a very timely manor to solve this problem ( this was not his fault) that could have gone very badly for us. Always timely, polite, professional and very knowledgeable. So sad that this fabulous plumber is moving across Canada. Ontario's loss is BC's gain. PETER WRIGHTTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was doing a renovation in our upstairs bathroom and although I like to do the work myself, the plumbing was over my head. I don't like to have to hire anyone but I had no choice. My son recommended JW Mechanical because he works with him occasionally being in the HVAC business. Well I am so glad he did. Jost does impeccable work, best materials, and everything up to code. He went over and above what was asked of him, like repairing floor joists in the 120 year old floor. He replaced all the old piping and drains. Tore out the cast iron vent pipe from the basement up through the roof. I could go on forever, but if anyone is looking for a plumber Jost is your man. Thanks for helping me sleep now Jost!! Regards, Peter Wright 259 Shepherd Ave. BRANDON MOYERTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jost from JW Mechanical really came through for us. We had a big job to get done in a short amount of time. The plumbing of our newly bought house had to be entirely updated from Kitec to traditional plastic/copper. Jost had this job completed in exactly one day. The plumbing was replaced, new faucets were fitted, our water softener upgraded, and a new laundry tub installed. Would highly recommend Jost for your plumbing needs! BRAD MEYERTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

SAMANTHA DTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This man definitely takes extreme pride in his work! We just had Jost come to our newly bought home to install a new toilet, water softener, add some shut off valves & rescheduled him to come back and connect our sink and dishwasher (after we put the kitchen back in). I have already recommended him to a few friends. His work is impeccable, he's extremely honest & fair pricing. I've had plumbers in the past (as a renter sent by the rental company) and let me tell you... Jost is 100 stars, 5 stars is not enough! Thank you again Jost! You're our new plumber for any of our needs 😊 BEV DEVONPORTTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
