Plumbing Pals for shower repair
Clear ✕All 30 Google reviews tagged “Shower repair”
The technicians were great problem solvers, very patient and polite dealing with the cramped quarters and funky layout of an 1830s row house. Highly recommend
Plumbing Pals came highly recommended by a family friend and they exceeded our expectations. We had plumbing issues throughout our home as well as our HVAC system not working as it should. Nick solved the HVAC issue immediately and he shared helpful tips for maximizing the efficiency of our system. Stephan is an…
Arrived on time, gave a no nonsense evaluation of what was going on, replaced the part on the spot, took less than an hour overall. Would definitely recommend.
John and Kyle were amazing. So happy with the repair and so thankful for the help with water pressure issues. Always great working with John and Plumbing Pals.
The service was fine and they were able to do the fix. However, $550 for a half hour of service and a part that cost less than $100 was clearly taking advantage of the fact that I needed the work done quickly.
Excellent. Responsive. Showed up on time and fixed the problem with minimal disruption.
We’ve had an opportunity to work with several employees and teams for plumbing repairs and drain issues. John and Jared recently came out and did a complicated shower trim kit update in a shower installed in the 1940s in our 1890s row house breaking only the minimally necessary tile. They also had to do the…
Absolutely wonderful service. Stephan was so honest, helpful and prompt. Highly recommend Plumbing Pals.
Jay Matt and Billy did a exceptional job replacing my curb trap I highly recommend them for all your plumbing needs on time professional and no mess to clean up
Dave and Jason were extremely thorough!
Steve and Jared were awesome. They came in got right to the problem and repaired my issue without incident. I highly recommend.
I called Plumbing Pals on Monday for an issue with my shower on Monday. The diverter (faucet for those who don’t know lol) was dripping water after the water was turned off. They said someone can be out tomorrow to fix it. Allan came out at the time said (could’ve came earlier but I wasn’t home) and fixed the issue…
Economy plumbing is always responsive, gives an estimated time, let's you know when they're on the way and employs knowledgeable plumbers! Today Ricky stopped by because my shower was spurting water and I thought there could be a leak. After taking off the panel in back of the shower, he checked the lines and there…
Ricky came to help us with an absolute nightmare emergency pouring into our living room. He scheduled same day, showed up on time, and immediately knew what the issue was. He went above and beyond to fix it properly, confirmed the issue was resolved, and was reasonably priced and very compassionate about our…
Best company! Tim & everyone they send over are always on time, extremely knowledgeable & fix my problems right away. I can’t thank this company enough for always saving me in the middle of a crisis! Super professional, prices are great & they always make sure to clean up after. 13/10 Highly recommend!!!
Travis, Ricky and the rest of the Economy Plumbing team are very responsive and knowledgeable. They go above and beyond to find and fix any plumbing problem. I use them for all of my plumbing needs - big and small.
Tim and Anthony were great. Job took longer than expected but they didn’t give up on me and got the job done. Thank you
Allan was excellent!
Best plumbers around! Tim’s a great guy super efficient, cleans up after & is very knowledgeable. I highly recommend this company! Saved my house multiple times from disasters. Customer Service is great! Best company out there!!!
Economy Drain Cleaning & Plumbing was assigned through our realty company to inspect and repair a 1st floor ceiling leak. Anthony was able to detect the leak (came from a poor bathtub faucet seal), install new equipment & fix the problem, and remove the molded ceiling drywall during his visit. He was efficient,…
Sammy was very informative, professional and right on time! A pleasure to work with!
The guys were on time and able to fix my main concern in less than ten minutes.
Anthony and Tim were excellent to work with. Another company tried to sell us on a way more expensive project, but they were able to install a new diffuser that fixed our issue. I highly recommend them for any plumbing issues.
Anthony and Tim from economy drain cleaning did an awesome job! We had a leak in our shower faucet that we noticed initially on our living room ceiling. We inquired yesterday and they came out today and fixed everything in 2 hours. They also gave us recommendations moving forward too. They were awesome,…
Tried and failed to replace tub spout on my own (couldn't get the old spout off). Called Economy Drain Cleaning & Plumbing on a Saturday morning. Anthony arrived to help very quickly and roughly two hours after I called, the job was done. I am happy with the work: extremely fast, friendly, and, most importantly, a well done repair.
Shower was having issue. Called them in the morning around 8:00am. Got them to set up a appointment between 10 and noon. Alan got here 5 minutes before 10. We showed him the issue and told him what was going on. He got the job done before noon. We didn't expect the job to done as fast as he did. Not to mention when…
Anthony showed up on time, and fixed the issue. He cleaned up everything when he was finished, and was very professional.
