This is a new-to-me house and I had a lot of questions. As with many older homes, not everything was quick and easy. Billy patiently worked out the details, made the necessary updates and was always pleasant and explained the process. I would definitely call them again!

I have used Kokesh plumbing for many years, and I have had nothing but great experiences. Recently my father needed some plumbing work done at his home. After waiting weeks of trying to schedule his plumber he gave up on them and called Kokesh. The next day Kokesh was on site and took care of all his problems.

We wanted to support a local and family owned business and spent a long time researching and reviewing recommendations on the web and social media. We narrowed down the list to three and called all three and left messages.…

Mike was the BEST plumber we have ever had in our home. He was on time, professional, discussed each problem we were having and fixed virtually everything on a long list spending all day with us. He fixed things handymen had just messed up when the handymen basically wasted our time and money previously. No more…

All of the staff & Kokesh Plumbing is so helpful. I was able to pick out a kitchen faucet on Moen's website & they were able to order if for me through their supplier. The faucet is beautiful!
