Jacob and Nick did a great job!!!!! So happy and pleased for fixing our problem in less time than they expected. Great Job guys!!!! They had to cut up concrete in basement to get to pipe that was corroded and replace. When they were done they cleaned everything nicely. No mess. This company is for real!!!! Again…
On two different occasions in the past year or so, we have had had two different plumbing emergencies in our basement after hours. The first time, Dan came in the middle of the night and tonight, Mike came at 10:30pm to replace our sump pump and broken valve. Both times, they were here within 20 minutes and were…
Jason was professional, efficient, and very personable. He fixed the problem quickly and also told me how to avoid future issues.
Excellent service! Yesterday was the 2nd time I've had service provided by Summer's. Both times they've been phenomenal in every way! They came the same day I called. Service & pricing have been great. Yesterday, one of the water pipes in the bathroom broke causing a flood and me having to shut off the water to the…
My plumber Lloyd was wonderful. He was patient with explaining what’s going on. He was very personable and punctual. Highly recommend him.
I have been a Summer's customer at two residences over the past five years and have always been happy with their work customer service
Reliable and quality service every time.
Nick was great. I had a lot of questions he had a lot of answers. My pipes are around 100 yrs old. They fixed changed and now hot water is working great. I’m a happy homeowner.
Kevin and Bryan were here, extremely nice people, professional, and would recommend to anyone
Andy, Aaron, and AJ did an excellent job!!! Give them a raise!!!!
I had a plumbing issue this morning and I called Summers, and they were at my home by early afternoon. I was impressed with their professionalism, respectfulness and knowledge. They were in and out in no time and repaired the leak underneath my kitchen cabinet. I would highly recommend Summers. Thanks Dan & Randy.
Nick and Ziggy did a prompt, cheerful, professional emergency repair when our pipes burst in the ceiling and flooded the garage. They could not have been nicer or more helpful and quickly replaced the burst copper pipe, cleaned up meticulously, and offered us their helpful membership maintenance plans. Many thanks!
Mike, Randy, and Austin were the gentlemen assigned to our project. From the first minute of their arrival I was impressed with their courtesy and professionalism. Their communications were clear and thorough. They maintained their work area, and cleaned up after themselves thoroughly. We have another project or two…
2026 update: I've been having Summers work on projects for me for a few years now, from a dead hot water tank, to a cracked furnace, to a water softener and new, more more reliable sump. All the techs that have come out and I'm sure I don't remember them all - Dan, Brian, Charlie, Mike, Zach (I'm sorry if I forgot…
Do not allow any of summers company without prove of their insurance policy number .If they fell and installation is wrong you will regret. They will try to reaper cheap way and never file a claim with their insurance. They will advise to file a claim with your homeowners insurance
Nick and partner were very kind, courteous and knowledgeable. A two day, unexpected job that caused major anxiety… but having Nick and his partner here to fix it put my mind at ease! Highly recommend.
Great job! Went above and beyond!!! The company would be lost without you. What a Wonderful teacher you must be.
Good job. Very quick
Andrew and his associate was very respectful, knowledgeable, and did a fantastic job replacing a valve to the main water line and installed an automatic shut-off at my church. The job was done well and I would recommend them and Summers to others.
Moving most current to the top. Keith was exceptionally professional and proficient in executing our AC repair. Super personable as well. We will always recommend Summers for HVAC and plumbing. They always stay in contact and show up on time, and do the work quickly and well. Special mention to the office staff who…
Angelo was so very thorough. He explained everything that needed to be repaired and answered all my questions. Also scheduled an appointment for followup repairs. He had great suggestions. 5 🌟
Angelo was a great technician and very helpful with plumbing issues that he saw needing to be addressed.
Great experience and valuable information.
Our sink and washer were backing up and we have ancient plumbing! The guys who came out were very professional and friendly at the same time. We will be calling Summers for any future issues. Thanks Andy!
Nick did a fantastic job. Issue was resolved in about 45 minutes. Great job and professionalism sir!
Recently had an issue with a cracked pipe requiring us to turn off the water to the house, which is never fun. The service was scheduled as an emergency call after hours, but they were able to dispatch someone way ahead of schedule. Angelo was super professional and courteous. I work from home and often dread having…
The work provided was excellent and very quick timely professional great value. Absolutely!
Nick did a great job!!! My sump pump stopped working. I’m so glad I have Summer’s maintenance plan. Nick came out the same day. I saved a ton of money being on their maintenance plan. I’m so happy with this service!

Mike arrived at about 3pm and completed the job a little after 4pm. He didn't take long to identify the location of the leak and completed the repair in good time. The repair was finished in a timely manner and for a very reasonable amount of money. I am quite satisfied in the work done and in the manner in which it…
Summers Plumbing and heating is my go to company for my plumbing needs hands down. They are efficient, and helpful and have an excellent professional attitude. Thanks Summers good job 👍🏾😎
They were nice and professional, made sure to wear their shoe covers. Got the job done and so far sink drain is working wonderfully.
Megan did a great job. It was fun talking to her as the work progressed. Professionally done in a friendly manner... Work done,,, work site cleaned up... We can now do our laundry without the sink running over!! Thank-you..
Professional and solved the problem right away!
They do great work, always use them.
This is the third time I’ve had Summers out to mess with my clogged drain. Apparently it is a drum trap badly clogged. Once we removed the drywall to access the pipe, they were able to get in there and get that nasty problem clog and clean it out, as well as add access to the pipe going to the upstairs drain which…
Excellent Job as expected from Summers! Mike, Bryan and Dave were Top Notch! Professional, friendly and very knowledgeable! Would highly recommend!
Both Chris and Mike M. were exceptional. They explained what the plumbing repair process would entail and length of time needed to complete the work. They reconfigured the plumbing for a basement bathroom to accommodate any future renovation. Chris and Mike not only repaired the wall that needed to be cut into,…
I won’t go anywhere else ever again so nice and so professional. And very reasonable compared to other places
Great work as usual.
Summers has helped us so much with all our plumbing nightmares and furnace maintenance. They are always so nice and courteous EVERY TIME! Highly recommend
We had a water leak with our old pipes. Rachel was able to send out her best plumber (Dan) to fix our problems. They were professional and was able to fixed our problems in no time. Thank you so much!
Chris the plumber that came to my home was amazing - professional, sweet, patient, and thorough with explaining the work that needed to be repaired. He's an honest person and treats customers like family. He should be the face of Summers Heating and Cooling! 🙂 Customer Service staff were also great. Highly recommend the company.
My shower upstairs was stopped up and leaking into my kitchen downstairs. I called Summers right away and they dispatched someone right away. Dan did a great job finding the problem and explaining everything to me, quickly replaced the pipe fittings and cleared the drain. He was very professional and helpful making…
Updated again 09/2023: still continue to receive prompt, courteous, and friendly service from Summers! Chris B made today's visit a breeze. Update: our continued experiences with Summers for any service have been prompt, courteous, and informative. Absolutely thrilled to give them my business. First experience…
Zach Mackenzie was by far the level best HVAC professional we have ever had service our church. What in previous times took other technicians hours, Zach completed in minutes and made it look easy. He explained everything very well and informed of the best options that would give us, the customer, the best outcome.…
Always a pleasure working with Summer's. Conner and his partner AJ were very polite and courteous. They answered all my questions. They were able to replace a shutoff valve to my refrigerator and install a new water heater the same day I called, no problem.
Great experience! Not so much with the follow up person. No worries though, received excellent service from the plummer! Thanks!
Had a lot of work to be done.They were wonderful. Cleaned up when they were finished. Will be my go to company from now on. Ryan Rodriguez did an excellent job.
Connor Griffen did a great job!
Conner was on time, was very thorough in his inspection, and was knowledgeable in answering my questions.
They did good job.
Connor Griffin did a wonderful job, and in a timely manner replacing our front spigot.
I am so glad i finally called a professional plumber to address my leaky faucet and shower knob. The price was reasonable and comes with a guarantee. They were on time and it did not take a long time to complete the jobs. I'm pleased and i would recommend them to my friends and neighbors.
Bryan did a fantastic job. He responded very quickly. He is friendly and knowledgeable. The job was done quickly and professionally. The charge of the service was very reasonable. Can't ask for a better service.
I was having some issues with my waterlines. Connor arrived shortly after I called and was quick to diagnose and repair the problem. He was very knowledgeable and thorough with his work. I absolutely recommend this company!
Always good
Excellence kind hearted people!🙂
It has been a whole year that I have used this company. I have had Perry on 6 different occasions. He knows his job well. He lets me know he is transferring this last visit. Now I have to start over. Every time I have a good thing going it never lasts. God bless him and his family on his new journey. He will be missed.
Bryan and his assistant did excellent work and quickly! Great job! Will recommend n
Bryan M. did a wonderful job. Answered all my questions and explained each step of the repair. So pleasant and very professional. Also—-as a customer I really appreciate how your staff member is introduced as he is approaching the time of appointment/picture as well as Bryan’s call of arrival time. Thanks—-
Had some new waterlines run after they froze this winter. After the install I noticed some wetness under the kitchen sink and summers came out and checked on it twice. The first time they could not tell where the leak was coming from so I isolated it and they corrected the issue with no problem. Connor was great to…
Connor Griffin was very knowledgeable professional very respectful and kind he cleaned up before leaving the job. I was very impressed with him and would use Suumers again and recommend to all my friends!! Thank you Connor Griffin
Nick and his assistant did a great job connecting the water line to the new refrigerator. The old line was inadequate, so they had to replace it and did a fabulous job in a timely manner. The new line looks so much better than what was there before and works beautifully.
Tech was very professional, knowledgeable and informative about my situation.
I had them come in and find a leak in my basement. When I got them to come in to do the work they had to repipe my basement. When they did they didn't wear any foot protection and tracked pipe setiment throughout my house. Then left without cleaning up. When they left I had noticed they didn't even have a hookup for…
Excellent job well done.
Great service In a timely manner My serviceman very easy to talk to explained each problem in detail everything from the pipes underneath the kitchen to the dishwasher water issues to the bathroom flush handle is working properly now Joy is someone to appreciate also with a very calming voice and understanding attitude.
Great work! Knowledgeable, skilled team came to my home to make repairs.Highly recommend! Thanks Bryan and team!
Bryan was extremely friendly and was able to complete the job in the most cost friendly and least invasive way possible. He was earlier than the time I was originally given which was awesome!
Fantastic company and employee.
Very professional and knowledgeable. Makes me feel better knowing I can get 24-7 service if needed!
The technician was professional, knowledgeable, and kind. I’d give the technician 5 stars. The organization of the appointment needed improvement. My appointment got double booked with someone else’s, changing the arrival time, and also changing the amount of time that the technician was able to spend at my home.…
Still have more work to do but so far very friendly and professional and explained everything about the upcoming work and the cost. Have used Summer in the past and so far has always been a good experience.
Had Nick from, Summer Plumbing ,as a service technician. Replaced piping through wall,along with replace an interior valve. Was courteous, professional, explained what was needed, and at what cost. He even gave me a senior discount, which I didn't know they offered. Job was complete in much less time than I…
Experienced, knowledgeable, and professional technicians.
Great service! Informtive,neat,quick and reliable service. Nick was great!
Trying to get a new dishwasher and discovered I needed a new valve under my sink prior to installation. Called Summer's, they were able to come out the following day and replace the valve. Very responsive, punctual, professional. Great work quality. They have a new customer for all my plumbing needs!
Very quick and easy. Thank you
The Guys did an awesome job making sure the installed pipes and hose bibs worked to our satisfaction. Wasn’t an easy job, and we appreciate the extra effort. Thanks
Dan was nice, professional and on time. The service was fast and efficient. I will be using them again very soon for some other projects!
Dan H is a five star all around. He was knowledgeable, helpful, prompt and efficient in all aspects of his job. If I ever need a service from Summers again, I’m hopeful that I can request to have him back. I felt confident and secure that I had such a professional repairing my plumbing. Thank you, Dan! Valerie H
Jeremy is fantastic! He not only fixed our initial issue, he also pointed out a potentially problematic issue that we are now getting repaired as well!! It’s nice to have excellent customer service where technicians go outside of the box to do an excellent job!!
Mike Lessner came out and did some work on our plumbing. You couldn't have asked for a more friendlier or professional employee to have in your home to do your work. I'd give his review 10⭐'s.
Yesterday, Austin and Brandon installed our new Lennox A/C unit. They did a quality job installing it, were done in less than 3 hours, and were mindful of my wife's things in our home. I would highly recommend Summers to both friends and family. And, by the way, the Lennox unit seems to work just fine although I need to have more experience with it.
Dan was extremely helpful, professional and knowledgeable. He quickly responded to our needs with our kitchen sink pipe repair. He explained everything throughly and recommended replacements for parts that were needed. It was a pleasure to have Dan help us. We will definitely be back! Thank you!
I completed a DIY PROJECT (kitchen island with sink and they came in and went over our plumbing... professional as always!
Great, quality, friendly service! Very thankful for the job they did!
Nick was absolutely amazing! Not only was he on time, he did quality work very quickly. He then gave us many recommendations for our clogged pipe and how to prevent it in the future. He left, and called us, remembering more advice he wanted to give. Overall, we’re extremely satisfied with our choice and will use this company again!
They do good work and are always pleasant to work with. They’re pricing is on the high side, but you get good, timely work and quality equipment.
Mike was a great guy got my pipe replaced for me and made it look nice I will definitely reccomend summers to anyone i know!
Was very knowledgeable and fixed all my problems with the water heater and explained everything thoroughly
