Jacob arrived promptly and quickly assessed the situation with our backed up pipes and ended up having to do a main line rodding via removal and replacement of our commode. Very friendly, professional, efficient, & clean. I recommend Summers for any plumbing or HVAC needs. Great, knowledgeable staff that lead with your best interest in mind!

Update: I had them come back to replace a toilet and vanity. EXCELLENT work. From Brian who came to do an estimate to Andy and Ziggy who came the next day ON TIME to do the work. I love these guys!!! Had them come to disconnect my faucet due to a new countertop being installed. They were on time, efficient and courteous. Andy and Ziggy were great.

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.
