Timely and courteous service. Sean S was very professional. He was able to correct all of our plumbing issues.
I needed two bathtub drains fixed, and Brandon Was very professional and fixed everything I would definitely recommend Universal plumbing to anyone who needs their services
Did a great job
Sean and Paul addressed ALL the issues during their service call. Even the extra issues that the initial service wasn't for. Very friendly guys who were easy to talk to and explained everything easily. Cleaned up after themselves which is a big deal to me. Will definitely be using the services again
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I cannot recommend Universal Plumbing enough! Another company told me I had a collapsed sewer line and that I needed to spend $16,000 to replace it. Thankfully, I decided to get a second opinion. Jonah and Paul showed up with great attitudes, took the time to thoroughly inspect my drain and sewer line, and…
Shane took care of a leak from our HVAC pipes. Great job! Explains everything thorough.
I'm leaving a review from Victoria Lorway. Colin and Eric were the plumbers that I had the pleasure dealing with. They were very professional and knowledgeable. They answered all my questions and were able to guide me through what they were doing. I will definitely be using Universal Plumbing in the future. Highly recommend!
He was very knowledgeable and explained ina way I could understand.
Brandon came out and repaired an outside faucet and added a pipe to another outside fixture. He did a great job and explained what the problems were. The price was reasonable and I am happy with the work. If I need future work done, I will definitely call them.
Chris and Sean did an outstanding job fixing a leaky tub. They quickly diagnosed and fixed the problem. Chris was very knowledgeable about every plumbing question and concern I had throughout my house. I'm a very happy customer.
Chris was very nice and provided great service. He was very professional and solved our plumbing problem efficiently too, at a reasonable price. Thanks Chris 5 stars 😊

Chris did a fabulous job at my house today. Very articulate and informative on the work performed. Would recommend him over and over again. Any future work I will reach out to Universal Plumbing and request for Chris to do the work.

These guys were absolutely amazing! This started out as a a sudden 'no-water-in-the-kitchen' issue that turned into a burst pipe.

Second day was water pipe replacement and I was able to meet Bryce and Brandon. Both…

Very professional company. Took the time to answer all questions.
The Guys from Universal came and cut my ceiling to find the leak and they ran a new line. They came in the appointment window and left everything as close to how it was originally as they could, minus the leak of course. They did a very thorough diagnosis of the problem prior to jumping into a repair. I really…

We called Universal Plumbing and Mark and Zach came out the next day and were super helpful in narrowing down the cause of the leak and fixing it. They answered my questions…
We have a leak on our bathtub. It was a hard find because we didn’t have access from the other room. Mark and Zach spent more time they initially planed but it was never an issue. They didn’t hurry. Bathtub leak is fixed and my husband and I are happy customers. The customer service was great. They were on time,…
Excellent professional service.
Very professional in appearance, dress and behavior. Universal is now my go-to plumbing company.
We went with Universal because of the professionalism and thoroughness of the initial quote. They completely replaced our 80 year old galvanized system with PEX piping, videoed and jet cleaned our sewers, and discovered a hidden concern with our toilet cast iron stack. Luckily we budgeted for most of this and the…
Perfect job good price

He arrived on time, was courteous and very professional. He was very conscientious in diagnosing the problem, and even took some photos that he emailed of a…
Very professional and punctual and explained the issue very well.
We've used Universal Plumbing a few times now and are always happy with their service. Our basement unexpectedly started flooding with all of the storms and we got the run around from multiple other companies over two days that supposedly "specialize" in those issues. Universal sent someone out to diagnose the issue…

J.D. did an excellent job. Very courtious and professional. I will recommend Universal Plumbing based on J.D and Marks services.
Universal Plumbing truly understands that great service is all in the details. We developed a sudden leak through our ceiling under the master tub and were thinking the worst. Chris came out same day and suspected two possible causes. He was right on and fixed it in the least disruptive way, efficiently, and…
