Customers frequently highlight punctual arrivals, clear communication regarding costs, and professional conduct during services like water heater replacements, gas line modifications, and drain cleaning. Technicians are described as courteous, thorough in diagnosing issues, and attentive to details such as cleaning up work areas and explaining repairs. The primary criticism involves a discrepancy between advertised sewer pipe repair services and actual capabilities, along with instances of unreachable phone lines, though these are rare compared to the high volume of positive feedback.

We smelled propane coming out of the keyhole by our fireplace on a Saturday afternoon. We immediately called Olde Town Plumbing and they had someone here within the hour. They were able to stop the leak and we will be fixing it shortly. Thank you to James and Kevin!

Olde Town Plumbing was great! We had them perform a backflow test for our irrigation system. We were surprised that they even filed the inspection with our water company so we wouldn’t have to. Highly recommend!!
