Mike was calm, knowledgable, took time to explain, able to quickly problem solve, arrived early and did not try to pull wool over my eyes. He was direct and practical without being fear based for repairs.

Super professional and respectful of our home. Went above and beyond and did a great job all around. Nick and Brian were fantastic. Our estimator Sam was also very responsive with our estimates.

My wife was super impressed with the crew's efficiency onsite and their conduct was professional. I'm a contrcator as well, and it's nice to know that I don't need to be around to ensure quality work takes place when Taylor's plumbing is involved.

We invited technician to receive estimate cost for simple drop-in sink replacement together with the faucet. We were shocked to receive an estimate in the amount of $4k+ just for the labor (we already purchased the sink and faucet, plumbing service not required). I contacted many people to get their opinion and the maximum amount someone paid was $2k.

THE PRICE WAS HIGH. WE HAD OUR OWN FAUCET TOO, IT TOOK ABOUT FOUR HOURS TO REMOVE THE OLD ONE & INTALL THE NEW ONE. WE THOUGHT IT WOULD COST ABOUT $300 OR $400 HUNDRED. EVEN WITH A $50 COUPON IT COST $770.00. THE SEVICEMAN WAS GOOD. OUR ONLY PROBLEM WAS THE PRICE.
