I think this may be my second Google review for plumbing pals, but that’s how much I love them. I’ve used them in the past for huge jobs digging up my basement and driveway to replace my full drain pipe line, and I’ve used them for small things like a leaky faucet that needed replacing down to the wire. They’re…

John and crew were very punctual, professional and pleasant. He went above and beyond. John explained what and where the problem was, and the best solution. He did exactly what he said he could do. He replaced burst water pipes to my kitchen sink, which were located in a very small crawl space, without tearing…

I am changing my review from 5 stars to less. I had reviewed them the very day the work was done but since then, it has been a nightmare. Given, the actual plumbing work has not been an issue but the messy, overfilled concrete that they laid now caused me to find a contractor to lift the perfectly good tile,…

I've been going to Plumbing Pals for various plumbing issues for at least the last 5 or 6 years, and I won't call anyone else. They respond extremely quickly (even faster if there's an emergency), the work is quality, and the pricing is fair – they always propose what actually needs to be done, and won't upsell you.…

We’ve had an opportunity to work with several employees and teams for plumbing repairs and drain issues.

They also had to do the…
