Another amazing experience with Hopke! I own an older home with copper pipes. The first time they came out they fixed my bathtub and sink drains in one bathroom very efficiently. I bought the house from a relative so I’ve been very aware of everything in the home for years and I’ve never seen the sink drain faster!…

Floor drain in the basement was backing up. It was late in the day and I have never hired a plumber before so I took a shot in the dark and called these guys (local company with good reviews). Chuck called me back immediately, and his guy Greg was here shortly after. Greg was awesome, cleared the drain, and…

We were referred to Hopke after being scammed by a bigger name plumbing company. We needed our kitchen sink unclogged and Chuck was very transparent on pricing and services over the phone.

We've used a few other companies for clearing our main drain of tree roots because our system keeps backing up. The last company we used charged us twice as much as Hopke and still said they couldn't get all the roots cleared. Brandon was here for about an hour and was able to get it all cleared for half of what…
