I had a leaking faucet and P-trap and valves that shut off the water in my bathroom. Fuse did a video call for a diagnostic (free) and then sent someone in 2 hours to fix it. The service technician was very skilled and did an excellent job and the pricing was very transparent and fair. I would highly recommend Fuse
