Our verdict
Exceptional emergency responsiveness and workmanship when available, but severe pricing concerns and inconsistent reliability create high risk—one reviewer paid $389 for unresolved issue and was steered toward unnecessary diagnostics.

Red flag
Pricing fairness score of 15/100 with explicit evidence of overcharging: $389 charge for failed simple repair with pressure to pay hundreds more for diagnostics. Reviewer specifically warns friends to 'avoid this business and their unorthodox practices'

“VIP plumbing did an amazing job with helping to diagnose our water heater issue, helping to shut off the leak and then installing a tankless heater. Jon did an excellent job of explaining what the issue was and he professionally recommended a viable solution. He also was the only plumber to answer the phone during a Saturday evening over Labor Day weekend! The man is tireless and does not stop working! I highly …”
“I used VIP Plumbing Experts to repair an outside faucet. The repair required more than replacing the assembly as the piping inside the wall could not be loosen. John explained the issue and provided several options to resolve the issue. One option was to replace the washer, but it was a temporary fix. I asked John to repair it.
