Flowstar did a great job with the plumbing portion of my bath remodel. They were able to order a toilet that none of the big boxes could get. They relocated the water line to accommodate the new toilet, and installed it perfectly. I've also had them run a new waterline to my new fridge. Flowstar's staff was very…

Cantrell with Flow Star was OUTSTANDING. My heat went out for several days causing all my pipes to freeze. He showed up on time (always called ahead of time to let me know he was on the way), was professional and courteous, and expertly tracked down and repaired more than 20 burst pipes. He also replaced a cracked…

This is the company you need to call for your plumbing needs. There is no doubt about it. I have had them come 4 different times for different problems with my house that is over 40 years old. Their work is superior to other plumbing companies with a more reasonable cost. Plumbing problem? Call Flow Star. Thank you Steve! Thank you Jake!
