I’ve had Masters out twice in the last 3 weeks, once for a new water heater installation and then back to replace a leaking shut off valve for a refrigerator water line. Both jobs were done by tech Brandon and each project was done professionally . Appointments are easy to set up with the office and response time is…

Kyle was on time and very efficient, my water heater installation was quicker than I expected. He was polite and courteous, took time to walk me thru changing temperature and showing me where the shut off valves were at.

We had Kyle come at Friday evening at 5:30 and was done installing and removing before 7:00. He was so good. The stairs and hardwood floors were covered and everything clean when he left. Super plumber would use Wm Masters again. Thanks Kyle!

Very happy with the service, product and price. 11-10-25 had a tankless water heater installed. Rebates coming from Nicor and the Federal government. Tyler, Kyle, and Mike…

The process from beginning to end was excellent. When Shawn came out and gave me a quote, he was informative and I didn't feel like he was trying to sell me something that I didn't need. Quite the opposite actually. The system he chose for me is perfect. Tanner and Gage were awesome installers. Prompt,…
