“Newberry Plumbing has worked in my home three times. In November '25, Chad Jr. replaced a toilet ring whose malfunction caused water to drip from my basement's ceiling. During the appointment, I asked Chad Jr. to check my hot water heater and was grateful that he noticed a faulty expansion tank which he came to replace in December.”
