The 13 plumbers serving Jackson, ranked.

For the 13 plumbers working within 20 miles of Jackson, we read 63 public reviews across Google, Yelp and BBB and ranked them like a friend who'd done the research. The number that matters most here: only 5 of the 13 list 24-hour service — if it's the middle of the night, start with those. Rankings are not for sale.

Ratings run high here (median 4.6, 1 below 4.0), but the depth behind them varies: 3 companies carry 100+ reviews while others have a few dozen, which we treat as thinner evidence and say so on their cards. Where reviewers repeat a specific complaint — 4 of the 13 companies have one — it's flagged below with their exact words. One number worth knowing: only one company in this radius — M & K Jetting & Televising Inc. — sits below 4.0 (3.8). Across the reviews we analyzed, the work named most often is drain clearing and water heaters.

How we rank — the 60-second version

What we read: for each plumber, up to 100 recent reviews from Google, Yelp and BBB — the full text, not just the stars. For this page: 63 reviews across 13 businesses.

What moves a plumber up: repeated, independent evidence of showing up when promised, fair and upfront pricing, and work that holds. One glowing review counts for little; twenty that agree count for a lot.

What moves a plumber down: repeated complaint patterns — surprise fees, missed appointments, pressure sales — especially when they show up on more than one platform.

What never moves the ranking: money. One clearly labeled sponsored slot may appear above this list; it never changes the order below it.

Our take on each plumber is our opinion, grounded in the reviews we quote on this page. Full methodology ↓

Aspen Plumbing Services

We'd call someone else first24/7 per Google listing
4.9 (1,045 Google reviews) 4.2 mi from downtown Jackson

Highly rated for fair pricing and professional work on routine jobs, but one catastrophic failure on a sump pump installation raises serious concerns about quality control.

Small sample — we've analyzed only 5 of 1,045 reviews so far. Treat this as a first read.

Why we're cautious

  • One of 5 reviews (20%) describes a major installation failure requiring 2+ hours of customer rework, with evidence of shortcuts and deflection rather than accountability (1 of 5 reviews)
  • Inconsistent quality execution—one reviewer reports botched sump pump installation with gasket misalignment, damaged rim, and incorrect caulking as a workaround, plus a sink stopper repair left non-functional (1 of 5 reviews)
  • Poor response to complaints—customer service defended substandard work as 'industry standard' rather than acknowledging the error (1 of 5 reviews)

To be fair

  • Excellent pricing fairness—multiple reviewers explicitly call out reasonable or competitive rates (cited in 2 of 5 reviews)
  • 4 of 5 reviews praise technical competence and knowledge (cited in 3 of 5 reviews)
  • Repeat customer satisfaction—at least 2 reviewers mention returning to Aspen multiple times (cited in 2 of 5 reviews)

Small sample — we've analyzed only 5 of 35 reviews so far. Treat this as a first read.

Why we're cautious

  • Quality appears to depend heavily on which technician is sent: Troy (owner) delivers excellent results; 'the two young men' on the second gas line job produced unacceptable work. Reviewer notes 'The first time...Troy was here. They did a great job! The second time he was not here.' (1 of 5 reviews)
  • Inconsistent workmanship quality: gas line installation was sloppy ($500+ job) with line draped over ducts and running randomly through basement; reviewer explicitly states 'Not happy' (1 of 5 reviews)
  • Pricing fairness score of 58 suggests markups may not align with value—one $500 gas line job resulted in poor installation (1 of 5 reviews)

To be fair

  • Exceptional responsiveness: called early afternoon and arrived within an hour; arrives with all necessary equipment ready to work immediately (cited in 1 of 5 reviews)
  • Strong communication and honest consultation: Troy answers questions thoroughly and helps find solutions, even for complex space constraints (cited in 1 of 5 reviews)
  • 4 of 5 reviews praise professionalism, friendliness, knowledge, and on-time arrival (cited in 4 of 5 reviews)

How we rank the plumbers on this page

  1. We read the reviews — all of them we can get. For each plumber serving Jackson we pulled up to 100 recent reviews from Google, Yelp and BBB and read the full text. For this page: 63 reviews across 13 businesses.
  2. Patterns beat anecdotes. A plumber moves up when independent reviewers keep describing the same behavior: showing up when promised, quoting before working, work that holds. One rave changes nothing.
  3. Complaints count double when they repeat.Surprise fees, missed appointments, pressure sales — when the same complaint appears across reviewers (or across platforms), it caps how high we'll rank a business regardless of its star average.
  4. Money never moves the ranking.A plumber can buy the clearly-labeled sponsored slot at the top of the page — visibility, not endorsement. A business we wouldn't recommend can't buy the slot at all, and no payment changes the ranked order.
  5. Our take is our opinion.It's grounded in the reviews we quote and count on this page — check our evidence and disagree with us if you like. That's the point of showing it.
Every quotation on this page is reproduced verbatimfrom a publicly posted review and attributed to its author, star rating, platform and date. Star averages and review counts are Google's (or Yelp's) as of our last data pull. “Rating mix” charts describe only the set of reviews we analyzed, which we state on every card. Read the full policy — including what we do not do — on our methodology page.
