LPLane Plumbing Inc

Haden and his teammate at Lane Plumbing did a great job assisting in our kitchen redo. New kitchen sink, new faucet, returned the water flow and hooked up the garbage disposal. Would have had to wait a week on 3 other service vendors. Haden and Lane Plumbing were to my house 3 hours after I called! Thank you!!

10/10 service. Fast, easy, professional, and fairly priced. I had a leaking faucet with an old shut off system. They replaced my faucet and fixed/rebuilt the shut off system. Will be calling them for my next service.

Jordan and Jasmine did an efficient job replacing my frost-free sillcock and adding a shutoff valve. Fair pricing, and they cleaned up thoroughly after the work was done. Would recommend.
