Avoid this company. They overpromise, under deliver, and over charge.

The work was ok but they quoted a return of the $49 truck charge. They say they will do it but I now on my 6th phone call to request it!! The last time they told me it was credited back to my card on April 1? not credit and I?m tired of being an April fools joke? do not trust these guys!!

Way overpriced. Paid 720 to replace a pvc pipe from slop sink to the wall. The technician was very friendly and explained to me that it was the minimum charge that he was able to do. He opened that larger jobs at the company Were actually more economical, but smaller projects were high. I won't be using them for any larger projects Because of the price of the smaller project, which is ironic.

J Blanton Plumbing is absolutely fantastic! Scott B was our plumber and he was professional, friendly, and it was in an out of the house in an hour. We couldn't be happier with the service. Also, I love that they support shelter dogs with their Unclogs campaign. Highly recommend J Blanton to anyone looking for a good plumber.

Had a main sewer line backup and called J. Blanton. The tech showed up on time, explained everything upfront, and cleared the clog quickly. He even did a camera inspection afterward so I could see the condition of the pipe myself. No upsells, no surprises, just solid, professional work. Drains have been running perfectly since. Highly recommend!

Response from Company:

Hi Dvid, thank you for the great review! We?re glad we could get out there quickly, clear the clog, and give you peace of mind with the camera inspection. Transparency and no surprises are exactly what we aim for, so it?s great to hear that stood out. We appreciate the recommendation and are always here if you need us! - J. Blanton Plumbing

I can?t say enough good things about this company. My sewer line was completely clogged, and it was starting to back up into the house ? stressful doesn?t even begin to cover it. I called them and they got someone out quickly. The plumber showed up right on time, was super friendly, and explained everything in a way I could actually understand. He worked fast, cleared the clog, and even double-checked the line to make sure it wouldn?t happen again anytime soon. What really stood out was how respectful he was of my home ? no mess left behind. The price was fair, and honestly, the peace of mind was worth every penny. If you?re dealing with a nasty sewer backup, these are the people you want to call

Response from Company:

Hi Daniel, Thank you so much for your kind words! We know how stressful a sewer backup can be, so we?re glad we could respond quickly and get everything taken care of for you. It?s great to hear our technician made the process clear and left your home clean! We truly appreciate your trust and are always here if you need us again! - J. Blanton Plumbing

We used J. Blanton Plumbing for a sewer clean out and had a great experience. The team was professional, honest, and efficient. We took advantage of their Unclogs for Dogs campaign, which made it even better knowing they support local shelters.

Response from Company:

Hi Emanuel, thank you for your kind review! We?re happy to hear you had a great experience with our team. It means a lot that you supported our Unclogs for Dogs campaign! Giving back to local shelters is something we?re very proud of. We truly appreciate your trust in J. Blanton Plumbing! ?

I had J. Blanton come to my home for a main sewer line clear, and I am very satisfied with the service. We were dealing with slow drains and a backup in the basement, so I was worried it was going to turn into a huge and expensive issue. The tech arrived on time, was very professional, and explained everything before starting. After clearing the main line, they performed a free sewer camera inspection, which I really appreciated. It gave me peace of mind being able to actually see the condition of the pipe and confirm there were no cracks or major root intrusions causing long-term problems. They walked me through the footage, answered all my questions, and didn’t try to upsell anything unnecessary, which I appreciate! I definitely recommend J. Blanton Plumbing, especially for the thorough camera inspection included with!

Response from Company:

Hi Anna, thank you for the great review! We?re glad our team could resolve the backup and provide peace of mind with the complimentary sewer camera inspection. Transparency and honest recommendations are always our priority. We truly appreciate your trust and your recommendation of J. Blanton Plumbing!
