There aren't enough stars for the work he did. We had a problem and had TWO plumbers before I got in touch with Josh. I was told that it was likely a pipe collapse (old house) and it would require DIGGING UP THE PIPE AND REPLACING.
When I talked to Josh, and told him where the house was, he immediately told me that wasn't the case. His knowledge of Council Bluffs was superior. He went to the house the following morning and found the issue and fixed it. It was just clogged.
Also, he uses a camera and sent me the video. I would suggest that BEFORE you buy any houses, that you have him come out and give you that image. You'll know before an issue arises if it is the line or not. Now, I have the ability to know what the pipe looks like and the shape it is in.
HE SAVED ME $3500!!! Call Josh. Call only Josh. Don't call anyone else. Ever.

He showed up promptly and got right to work. Knew exactly what to do, and explained it in terms we could understand. We were having a tree root problem and he was experienced in this. Before he was done, he made sure everything was flowing smooth and showed us the camera so we could see what was going on. Gave us a couple of recommendations on what to do going forward. Cleaned up everything, Was very professional.
We were very impressed with him.

We had a water line break in our utility room late on Friday afternoon. Got Josh’s number from our neighbor. Called and explained what happened. Because his crew had gone home for the weekend he personally came out and fixed the leak. We can’t say enough good things about him and his work!

I can’t say enough good things about Bogardus Plumbing! They were quick to respond, super friendly, and really went above and beyond to make sure everything was fixed the right way. It’s such a relief to find a plumber you can actually trust. They treated my home with respect and made the whole process stress-free. I’ll definitely be calling them for any future plumbing needs and highly recommend them to friends and family.

I came home to water in my utility room on a Saturday, and I found the leaking pipe that goes into a holding tank from our well. I was able to get ahold of Josh and he responded right away. He was so helpful and told me how to turn off the well and take pressure off the pipe before he got there. He and his son came at 8:00 pm on a Saturday to get the leak fixed. Then his team installed new piping on Monday morning. I highly recommend Josh Bogardus! He's a second generation plumber and is so knowledgeable. He works hard to make sure you're taken care of and it's done right. A great family owned business!
