About Us
BJ and Christy Tijerina founded P.S. Plumbing Specialists in September of 2015. In April of 2020, the business took on a whole new look and a new name, Route 66 Plumbing!
Prior to the birth of their own business, BJ worked as a plumbing supervisor and Christy as a RN. The dream of owning and operating his own business had been stirring in BJ for many years, his desire has always been to bring craftsmanship back into the plumbing trade. He always says “If you’re not going to do it right the first time, don’t bother doing it!”
Christy started nursing school in the Spring of 2009 with the end goal of being able to help give birth to BJ’s dream. In October 2017, Christy clocked out from her last shift at the hospital and joined BJ full time in the family business.
BJ and Christy were married right out of high school at 18 years old, that was 19 years ago now. They have 3 sons together that keep them busy with football, soccer, track, basketball, band/choir concerts etc.
BJ and Christy were raised right here in Amarillo/Canyon and have a heart for their community and other local businesses. They believe in the truth that we are all fearfully and wonderfully made by our heavenly Father. We were created to do great things!

Steven was not only kind and professional but he also fixed our issue quickly. He located the issue and explained the problem we had thoroughly. As soon as he located the issue, he got to work. It only took an hour and a half from scheduling an appointment to them coming to figure out what was wrong and then finishing the job. I would definitely use Route 66 Plumbing again. Very kind and professional!

Called Route 66 this morning and they were able to get someone out within a few hours. Steven was out technician and was great. He answered all of our questions and was able to unclog our toilet the cheapest and quickest way possible. We will definitely be using them for future emergencies.

Route 66 installed a freestanding bathtub in our master bathroom. They installed a faucet and moved the drain in the floor as well as putting the tub in. Steven and Joseph are very professional and answered all of our questions. They communicated with us on every aspect of the project and made sure the job was done correctly. They were always on time and on schedule.

Steven Miranda was running ahead of schedule and was able to service my repair earlier than expected. He ran into some issues that were not his fault, just bad timing on how things break down. He was extremely helpful, patient and knowledgeable. I will definitely be using him again after I get the other issues resolved.

Extremely professional, fast and friendly service. I've never had a plumber show up with booties to keep from tracking stuff in the house before, very thoughtful. They have excellent technology to diagnose the problem and are clear and up front regarding pricing. I'm calling them every time I have a problem now!

Had a leaky faucet that was dripping and then started coming out faster over time. Called around 1am and they got someone out early in the morning to fix it. Joseph came out and fixed it in a timely manner. It also looks real nice.

Michael was prompt with scheduled appointment and arrived right on time. He was very courteous and professional and listened to my long story of issues with our plumbing. During the inspection of our pipes with a camera, he explained in detail what was going on and was thorough with mapping out our piping system. I have yet to have a plumber be as detailed, patient, and informative as Michael. Plumbing Specialists was recommended to us and we are truly grateful. Excellent company!Plumbing Specialists was recommended to us and we are truly thankful for all the hard work they’ve done for us. So thankful to Michael as he did a tremendous job of diagnosing and getting things flowing again. His knowledge and desire to help us is so appreciated. Steven and Max had the daunting job of replacing our outside line and I can’t thank them enough for their dedication to getting it done right and in a timely matter. At no time during this entire process we’re we ever inconvenienced. The office staff are wonderful as well—from scheduling to going over the repair planning and costs. This company is now highly recommended by me and my family. Thank you, Plumbing Specialists, for all you’ve done for us.

I can't say enough good things about these guys! No one likes looking out in their yard and discovering you suddenly have a lake developing. One phone call and they were on the way. They communicated with us through the entire process and worked as quickly as they could to get our water line issue resolved. The first place we will call when we have plumbing needs in the future!
