Justen was excellent in finding the problem. They worked it out with me to where it wouldn't cost as much as it usually does. But as they got further into it they found some major problems throughout my plumbing. Unforseen problem is costing over $6,000 more than quoted but I would still giving them a 5+ star…

This company was quick to get us in and quick to get it's diagnosed and serviced. We worked with three plumbers that all were professional and knowledgeable. Elliott fixed the problem and kept us informed along the way. Good price for a complicated repair.

Absolutely the best! They had to use a higher horsepower pump then was originally planned and they didn’t try to up change the original estimate even though they had to send another worker and spend additional hours fixing the problem. I would recommend them on any plumbing repair.

I had a bad backup in the sewer system and Smith Bros helped me out at a good price. Zack was a pleasure to deal with as he was very professional and explained everything clearly. It was a vastly different experience than my first encounter with a competitor of Smith Bros. Smith Bros dug up my repair area so they…

Amazing service! They came out within a day of my contacting them (we had an issue with our outside sewer line) and fixed it the next day. I was shown exactly what the problem was and the recommended fix. The technician was very kind, explained everything, and was very professional.
