I wish I could give more than 5 stars. Gallagher Plumbing is the only company I will hire for my plumbing and HVAC needs. I have built a great relationship with Jason over the years, and trust his expertise, experience, and judgement 100%. If you want the job done right the first time, Gallagher is the call you make.

They cleaned out the vents of a house that had multiple indoor cats. Two guys spent 6 hours on sucking out the ducts, handwashing the registers with soap and water, checking the HVAC, and clearing out my dryer duct. It was thorough, and we haven’t had any allergy symptoms because of the cleaning. Very thorough, professional, and reasonably priced!

They're my favorite home services company in Erie by far.

Excellent service from start to finish. Responsive, fairly priced, and the quality of work was outstanding. We had a backed-up garage drain causing us problems, and they were able to provide same-day service. The issue was resolved quickly and professionally, and the workmanship was top-notch. It’s hard to find companies that combine great communication, fair pricing, and high-quality work, but they absolutely delivered. Highly recommend Chris and his team.

When quoting work they listened to what we wanted done, looked everything over and provided some suggestions but never tried to upsell anything unnecessary. The plumbers themselves were on time, were nice guys you can be comfortable with in your home, did excellent & efficient work, and cleaned up the work area nicely. This was all at a price much more agreeable than other plumbing companies quoted.

I had a very good experience with Gallagher Plumbing. They arrived on-site the day before to recommend toilet choices and evaluated my shower system, arranging for and providing a Delta shower system. The following day, they brought a team, including the owner, installed the fixtures, and cleaned up in less than 2-½ hours. The shower consistently provides hot water after their work in the tub access. It is a responsive company that immediately followed up with minor concerns to adjust the showerhead and replace a failed overflow valve in the new tank. Reasonable prices were charged for material and labor, and I highly recommend their services.

Excellent!!! Our basement flood twice. They cleared the first backup maybe ankle high. Tonight they came back and fixed the furnace and fixed our hot water heater after it was drained by the city; possibly will also have them put a back flow preventer in. They were so great. Amazing customer service. They were so friendly, sympathetic, and understanding. We love them!!
