I've used Shawn twice now, first was an emergency pipe freeze in January on a Saturday night, he tried literally everything he could do before I needed to call a thaw service, I really appreciated the dedication. He's also done routine fixes for both my heating system and plumbing and was efficient and knowledgeable. He's my go-to plumber.

JD came out on an emergency call out to fix our furnace that had a small leak. Walked through the problem with us and was able to get everything back on track. Gave recommendations for future maintenance and what to watch out for with our current set up. Highly appreciated and super fast service.

Excellent service! I discovered a leaking water heater on Monday and by Friday I had a new on-demand unit installed. JD & Dave were great and answered all my questions, they left my garage cleaner than when they arrived. Every person I spoke with at PHD was great, very polite & professional. I've already recommended PHD to several friends.
