Desert Water Plumbing did an amazing job replacing our main water line from the city meter to the house. They showed up right on time, bored cleanly right under our paver walkway without disturbing it, and installed a new PRV dialed in at 60 PSI. Clean copper work, professional crew, and had our water fully back on…

The quality and timeliness of the work was very good, customer service skills are first-rate and everyone involved at Desert Water Plumbing and Rooter exude trustworthiness and professionalism. This is the 2nd job they have done with us for my 86 yo mother. They are the team we will use for our entire family.

Great job and great company to call on. The guy that came out was polite and caring and cleaned up really well after the job was done even though it was a rainy day. Can't say enough good things about the worker and company My neighbor called them first and I will definitely call them back if I need them. What a blessing! ❤️❤️❤️

Great Team! Diagnosed my problem, which was a tricky slab leak in an older home with a flat roof, and brought in extra guys to get the work done quickly. Nice clean work and friendly team. I would recommend them to anyone!

Our main water line running from the meter to the house had a large leak. They came out within 3 hours on a Saturday and diagnosed the issue, provided an estimate, and got us in the schedule for repair.

They found the sewer line leak and showed it to me on the video. Sewer line work is not cheap but the price they gave me was well below almost 3 times cheaper the what i was given by other well known plumbing companies in phx. thank you desert water!

Let me just start by saying I never give a 5 star review. I’m a very tough grader. Mike and Dillon at Desert Water came out and assessed my situation noting that my water main was leaking despite visible signs. They were the only company to test and identify high pressure at 85 psi, which likely caused a major…
