Our service line ruptured. Looked at reviews for local plumbing in the area and called Hometown. They responded right away, sent someone over within 30 min. Tim arrived and was professional and courteous. He went right to work, explained why the line burst (last plumber used the incorrect fitting) and made the repair. Will definitely use them again.

Tim and his team are prompt, professional and knowledgeable. They are glad to help you understand the problem and what the solution is. We would not hire anyone else, in fact several of the staff use them for their own homes.

When the Forsyth County Water & Sewer Department sends you an email that you have a leak, and looking out your window you seen 40 gallons/hour of water flowing down your street, you need help quickly. A quick check with my neighbors and I saw that Hometown Plumbing was well regarded. The end of the story is that…
