I highly recommend this family-owned plumbing company! Mike Roberts was caring, honest, and took the time to thoroughly assess the situation without rushing or making us feel pressured. I really appreciated that he investedhid time in providing an estimate without charging us for it. It’s refreshing to find a company that values honesty, treats people with respect, and genuinely cares about helping their customers rather than just making a sale. Supporting a family-owned business like this is easy when they provide such great service and integrity. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy plumber!

Our house was built in 1959 and periodically had drain backups at the sewer line. The pipe that leads from the house to the sewer pipe was after World War Ii pressed cardboard (Really) and subsequently failed multiple times causing backup (Gross). Zippity (I love the name) came and replaced the line in a timely manner explaining step by step what they were doing and after completion sending us photos. The plumbers were friendly and made sure we were as little inconvenienced as possible. Also, a 25 year warranty.

Response from the owner · 5 days ago

Bear, thanks for the awesome review—pressed cardboard sewer pipe from 1959 is the stuff of plumbing legends (and not the good kind) 😅🚽. We’re glad our team could replace the line quickly, walk you through each step, share photos, and keep the disruption to a minimum. Appreciate you choosing Zippity Split Plumbing, Drain Cleaning, and Sewer Repair!

The men that did the job were great. James did a great job presenting the company and the work they specialize in. It is very important to know the people that are going to do a job are the best. It is also important that seeing the equipment they are using is top shelf. I would like to share this experience with all the people in this development. A special thanks to the staff and especially Zach and Mike. I would like the opportunity to visit with the management here to talk about a venture in spreading the word here about ZIPPITY SPLIT experience.
