Our Story

John’s Plumbing and Rooter started in 2000, and after 26 years in business we are still family-owned and run right here in the High Desert. Founder John Stepanian built the company on a simple idea: treat people honestly and do the work right the first time.

Today it is a true father and son operation, with the next generation of the Stepanian family working alongside him. John is a master plumber, and that hands-on expertise runs through everything our team does. We are not a franchise or a faceless chain. We are your neighbors in Hesperia, and our name is on every truck and every job.

The Plumber Other Plumbers Call

There is a reason we are known as the plumber other plumbing companies call. When a job is too tough or too technical, other shops often send it our way. Roto-Rooter trained and backed by decades of hands-on experience, we take on the drain, sewer, and repair work that stumps others. That depth of knowledge means we usually solve a problem the first time, instead of charging you to guess at it. Whether it is your home, your business, or another contractor’s referral, you get the same careful, experienced work every time. It is a reputation we have earned one solved problem at a time, and we do not take it for granted.

How We Treat You

How we treat you matters as much as the plumbing itself. You get honest, upfront pricing before any work starts, and we credit the service fee toward your repair. There are no upsells and no pressure sales, just a clear recommendation and a fair price, so you can decide with confidence. We wear booties at the door, clean up when we are done, and treat your home the way we would want ours treated. We install name brand parts, not bargain components that fail early, so the fix actually lasts. And for larger jobs, we offer financing so you can move forward on your own terms.

Licensed, Local, and Giving Back

John’s Plumbing and Rooter is licensed, bonded, and insured, operating under contractor license #1041749, so you are protected on every job. Our team is bilingual, and se habla espanol, because the High Desert is home to all of us. We serve Hesperia and communities throughout the High Desert and the Victor Valley, and you can find your town on our service areas page. Giving back matters to us too. We are a proud supporter of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, because a local business should invest in the community it serves. When you hire us, you are supporting a family that lives and works right here.

Don't Just Take Our Word for It

Our family has trusted these guys with our plumbing for years and they always do great work! Had some plumbing issues with the toilet in the masterbath and they took care of it right away. Last year our hot water heater broke and they were able to replace it quickly and for a really affordable price. This week our garbage disposal broke and we knew exactly who to call!  Highly recommend this company, especially Levi, who did a beautiful job on our hot water heater last year and on our sink and garbage disposal this week. Levi is very professional- he always does an awesome job and gets it done so fast! Thankyou, Levi/ John’s Plumbing & Rooter! You guys are the best! 🥳🫶🏻

Levi fixed our interior leak, our copper pipe in the master bathroom, angle stops/shut off valves, the ball valve and water pressure regulator. He explained everything he was doing as my husband and I watched. He was very patient with our questions and communication was always open. He got our water running and made sure any defects were addressed. Very grateful for his work!

John’s plumbing was excellent, Levi showed up within an hour and got my backed up drain cleared. Awesome customer service, Levi was very thorough and explained what he was doing and what could’ve caused my backup. Definitely recommend John’s plumbing.

This company was amazing, I called them for an emergency call due to a PCV pipe busting in my backyard. John had Levi out here in less then an hour and was able to get the job done in 30 minutes. I would highly recommend them for any related service needs.

This company was very affordable when I needed some work done on the weekend. The employee, Levi, was very professional and did quality work. Five stars.

Our kitchen flooded. Edgar called and came out earlier than scheduled and we needed him. He went right to work, explained the challenges, and solved them completely. Our kitchen is fixed and we have a beautiful new faucet too. Thank you John’s Plumbing!
We feel the price was quite reasonable. Actually, Edgar went beyond our expectations.

I had an emergency with a toilet. I had called a previous plumber and they had no openings for the same day. I called John’s plumbing and Rooter and within 30 minutes they were at my door ready for service! Levi was very courteous he knew what he was doing and fixed our problem within minutes! Thank you so much for your quick and friendly service! I do recommend!!!!
