About Jolly

Plumbing, HVAC & Electrical Contractors in Cincinnati, OH & Northern Kentucky

Jolly has been serving Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky homes since 1979, growing from a local plumbing company into the team homeowners call for plumbing, drain and sewer, heating, cooling, and electrical work. With teams based in both Northern Kentucky and Cincinnati, we stay connected to the communities we serve and are ready to respond when something goes wrong. We believe home service should feel straightforward: show up on time, explain the problem clearly, and do the work the right way without making it more complicated than necessary.

When something needs attention, you want it handled the right way. Jolly keeps your home running with service you can count on.

    Our History

    It Started Small. It Stayed That Way in the Ways That Matter.

    Jolly started as a small local plumbing company in 1979 and has grown into a team that handles plumbing, drain and sewer, heating, cooling, and electrical work across Northern Kentucky and Cincinnati. That growth came through steady work and a simple approach: take ownership of the job, be honest about what needs to be done, and follow through until it is finished. Those same values still guide the company today, with a focus on showing up prepared, explaining the situation clearly, and putting in the work to get it done properly, which is how Jolly has built long-standing trust with the homeowners it serves.

    Do the work right. Treat people fairly. Keep it simple.

    This is a hands-on environment where effort matters. You will be part of a team that supports each other, communicates clearly, and takes ownership of the job from start to finish.

    We had water backing into our tub and walkin shower and couldn't use our toilets. A Major Mess.We called JOLLY on Friday, and Ronnie came right out, We didn't have to wait until Monday or Tuesday as another Companies were telling us. They snaked out our drain which was clogged with flushable baby wipes and scoped the pipe. We were in need of a good Plumber, HVAC . Ronnie and Shawn were polite a knowledgeable and did great work they cleaned the work area , We even signed up for their monthly plan, what a Great Deal.

    Enjoyed having all the workers here resolving my plumbing issues! They were determined and persistent in finding the problem and located problem and fixed it! Excellent skilled and professional people. I feel blessed that I chose Jolly!!! A special thank you to the following gentlemen that made my scary and stressful situation more tolerable: First guys on the job was Aaron and Thomas then along came several more during the repairs with special skill sets: Kevin, Ronnie, Drew, Dillon and then Noah and Ethan. If I have left anybody out I am so sorry, but hopefully you at Jolly can determine who I left out and be sure to thank them also. Again many thanks for a job well done! A bunch of "SUPER" hard working professionals!

    My family and I would recommend Jolly plumbing. We needed some minor work done and what I appreciate the most is the fact they didn’t try and upsell me. The informed me what I would need and that was it.

    Jared was our plumber. He was professional, knowledgeable and took his time explaining what we needed pre repair and also post repair.

    You will have a Jolly time dealing with these guys.
