Juan gave me excellent advice about my Plumbing and especially about my water pressure. He communicated clearly and always had my best interest in mind in making recommendations.
Eric was absolutely amazing. He was polite, respectful, and professional in both knowledge and workmanship. I can’t say enough about how grateful and pleased I was with Eric and his service. Recommend with highest regards.
On time and very efficient
Juan was amazing. He went above and beyond to fix my refrigerator hose leak
Nobody likes moving into a house they just bought and finding a burst main water line or shower draining troubles. Unfortunately we did, but the team at Cornell’s (specifically Juan, John, Eric and Kyle) all came to our rescue and fixed all issues as economically and logistically efficiently as was possible under…
Great job. Fast service. Juan is a knowledgeable and efficient tech. We had a broken shower valve that needed replacement. He took the time to share options and advise.
Had my house completely repiped, new waterline installed and some drainage issue repaired. Trey was very courteous and professional while completing my many plumbing issues. He communicated well, kept me informed and answered all my questions. Very respectful.
Another update about our experience with Cornel's...Exceptional experience...a complicated emergency repair that took several days, and an HOA. Baxter, our plumber did everything he could to take care of us. Thank you Baxter, thank you Cornel's! Fast and efficient service mixed with a friendly office and work crew.…
Like everyone else the good reviews made me select this company. We had a small leak that was currently under control when we called to schedule. We called Monday and were told no one could come until Wednesday which was fine. We were charged an “emergency fee” yet no one came the same day. While the plumber was…
Met Judah today for a water line leak and he was great. I work with trade folks a lot because of my line of work and he is the kind of guy I try to “collect.” Knowledgeable, helpful, and a pleasure to work with, a real salt of the earth kind of guy. Couldn’t recommend him more.
Great service, very fast response time. Brenden did a great job at fixing the problem, I'm happy with everything. Thank you!
Competent, efficient, proficient, friendly, good listener, willing to discuss/answer my questions. Professional demeanor.
Matt came out and took care of several things at my house. He fixed a leaky toilet that required the seals at the bottom of the tank to be replaced. Then, he replaced the sink drain stopper from the old style rod to the latest version. Finally, he completely replaced the sump pump in our crawl space and rerouted the…
Brendan was phenomenal! He explained everything so well, answered all my questions and worked around other contractors I had in the same day. Awesome experience.
Eric was the best! My husband and I have a fixer upper and he helped to identify several different plumbing and HVAC options for us. Would definitely recommend Cornel’s. Scheduling was easy online, they were able to come out quickly, and signing up for their membership gave us a lot of peace of mind.
Not only did Cornel’s Plumbing fit us in in under 24 hours, they sent the BEST technician, Eric. I’m not a morning person, but Eric completely made my morning, as he was so respectful of our property while he worked, clear in his communications, keeping us updated during the whole process, and extremely professional…
Judah was great, arrived same day & explained the repair process very well. Really appreciated the honest up front pricing for the work that was needed. I will definitely use and recommend Cornel's in the future.
Eric was great! Came out and provided an incredible amount of knowledge to help our decision making process. Cornel’s promptly responded to our request and send the right folks to evaluate our needs.
Eric and Alex were excellent partners in diagnosing issues and determining the proper next steps. Great communication, transparent pricing, and made sure to instill trust and confidence in my choice to work with them!
Brenden with Cornel's Plumbing, was polite, professional, and explained the problem clearly. He completed the repair very quickly and made the whole process easy. Excellent service!
I needed an estimate on work that I needed to get done. Jordan came out and checked everything out and worked with Josh to get me a price I could afford. He was very friendly and helped me a get a good price. Once I got a price, I had Ed and Adrian come out. Ed, is the HVAC specialist and he had to reroute a…
Older plumbing from an 1960's home is always challenging, but when it comes fixing an issue that could have meant devasting repair cost, Cornel's came through and saved the day. Alex was amazing. He gave us the honest and hard truth about the limited amount possible repairs. He is truly a miracle worker. I have…
Brenden was great, professional, courteous and did the job right the first time.
From beginning to end we were walked through the entire process. Truly 5 star! Thank you to the entire team.
Eric did a fantastic job and was very thorough!
Juan from Cornel came to fix shower that had been poorly installed. He was great at explaining the issue offering potential solutions and following up. He even found and fixed some additional issues beyond the reason we had called. Highly recommend.
Colby was GREAT! professional, helpful, super friendly and knowledgeable. if we could give more than 5 stars we would! we now plan to use Cornel's Plumbing for all our plumbing needs in the future. delighted to find someone local that we can trust.
Fast and great service. Juan was professional, knowledgeable and explained everything well and in detail. I appreciate the service!
Evan (and Coleman) were very knowledgeable, professional, courteous and detailed oriented. Evan answered all my questions and I had no doubt the job would be done correctly the first time. Cornel's is very lucky to have such a great technician on board. Thank you Evan and the whole team for making this a excellent experience.
Brenden was absolutely fantastic…prompt, thorough, communicative, patient and kind. From complimentary evaluation to a quick fix, in one visit! Thank you!!!
Kevin did an outstanding job and was very honest with us and up front about the repair costs for leaking pipes under kitchen sink and basement sink having issues with not properly letting cold water run with the faucet. We would use Cornels Plumbing again and highly recommend a family owned business and not…
Evan, Eric and Coleman did great job replumbing and unclogged a sink
Brendan was super helpful in answering our plumbing questions and giving us peace of mind. Highly recommend for friendly, thorough service. Eric did an amazing job clearing our slow flowing shower drain. He made it a pleasant experience with his cheery disposition and my puppy loved home, too. 💕
Juan Segundo is an excellent representative for Cornel plumbing. He is friendly and very professional. Works quickly and efficiently. I appreciate good customer service and his expertise.
James Pearson was awesome and easy to talk to! Definitely felt like I was in good hands!
Eric arrived on time was super helpful and friendly and understood my problem and dealt with all my questions and concerns. I have used Cornell‘s for many years and will continue to do so with the quality of employees and care that they put toward their work
Alex showed up on time, went over the scope of the work needed. He came back the next day and completed the work in only 2/3rds the time of the original estimate. He was very friendly, professional, and his work was great. 5 of 5 stars
James was quick, friendly, and did a great job! Thanks so much!
We are very happy with the job Thomas did for us. We had a leak under our kitchen sink that he repaired. He was polite and efficient and left our kitchen looking almost better than it looked before he was here. We would highly recommend him for any plumbing job.
Kevin really came through on providing a palatable explanation of our pipes situation, the materials and repairs. We had a better understanding of the scope of our home’s plumbing repairs, and today he accomplished what we agreed on, in good timing. Great service!
