Mr. Glover was friendly, professional, knowledgeable, and will be helping us with some other plumbing repairs after resolving our shower situation. I am happy to recommend his services.

Brandon returned my call quickly. He scheduled my repair and when his schedule opened up called to move the appointment four days sooner. Once he arrived the repair was a little more extensive than originally expected, but Brandon wasn't upset and finished the full repair that day. I would definitely recommend Brandon and Elk River Plumbing!
