I was really pleased with Penn Plumbing. Ryan responded in a timely manner and was able to quickly diagnose—and fix—the issue with my running toilet. Price was reasonable, as well. He has an easy-going personality, which is a nice plus. I will definitely use him for future plumbing needs. For now, I’m looking forward to next month’s water bill!

Ryan is absolutely stellar! I called and texted through mid-week needing a water heater installed and brought up to code. Ryan called back same day, stated he had a availability over the weekend to do it. We chatted over the phone as to size and type. Ryan came out Saturday morning, absolutely pleasant and cheerful…

Ryan replaced toilets and a water softener for me. I purchased the toilets, but he provided the Watco water softener that he recommended. He was very professional and easily finished these jobs to my satisfaction. He first stopped by to check out the scope of the work and gave me a quote. He showed up on time…

Ryan is friendly, knowledgeable, and fairly priced. He was even nice enough to check the warranty on our broken water heater before he gave us a quote for a new one. We’ll definitely be calling him again next time we need some plumbing work done.

Ryan is absolutely stellar! I called and texted through mid-week needing a water heater installed and brought up to code. Ryan called back same day, stated he had a availability over the weekend to do it. We chatted over the phone as to size and type. Ryan came out Saturday morning, absolutely pleasant and cheerful guy. There was no upsell tactics or anything, price he quoted is what was charged. He replaced the water heater, got everything up to code with new valves and expansion tank. Pricing was in the range I was expecting to pay and way lower than the big corporate plumbers around Indy. Genuinely one of the easiest and most polite plumbers I have ever dealt it. I will only hire Ryan from here on out!
