Jason arrived very quickly and handled our sewer repair with great professionalism. our outside pipe issue was resolved smoothly, and he made sure everything was working perfectly before leaving. He explained the sewer repair process clearly and gave helpful advice to prevent future problems. Fast response, honest service, and excellent results truly a reliable family owned plumbing company.

Big apple came out the same after no one else had time to come out, and they even gave us the best price for our main sewer line replacement.

Ever have a great start to a day, and in a split second everything just goes down the drain? Well it wasn’t going down the drain for me; it was being pumped out of my basement sump pump. That’s when I knew I needed help. I called Big Apple; best thing I could have done! They were out to my house within a hour!! He took a look where the main water was coming into my house and pointed out to me where the water leak was coming from. He explained that it could be in the cement or in my yard…. Either way he could get it back into operation the same day! Long story short…. He showed me the issued piping, and I opted to have a brand new pipe installed from the water main to my house. They just dig out a hole around the water main now and don’t have to trench and dig out the whole yard. I couldn’t have asked for a better expert or quicker response! Thanks for saving the day!!!!

Overpriced + truck fee is way too high. They charged $50 just to show up and give a ridiculous quote of $1000 to redo my kitchen drain. Told them nah. Ended up finding someone else who did it for about 60% less than their quote.

We recently had our water heater replaced by Big Apple Plumbing, and the entire experience was outstanding from start to finish. The plumber arrived on time, explained all of our options clearly, and helped us choose the right water heater for our home without any pressure or upselling. The installation was clean, efficient, and professionally done. Everything worked perfectly right away, and they made sure the area was spotless before leaving. We really appreciated the clear communication, fair pricing, and how respectful the team was of our home. If you’re looking for a reliable, trustworthy plumbing company for water heater replacement, I highly recommend Big Apple Plumbing. Excellent service and quality work you can count on.

Wow. Just had James install a recirculation pump on my water heater. Works great. James is responsive, knowledgeable and dedicated. Installed the pump and it was missing a part. Found the part and came back out the same day and got the system working. It made our day. He is our go-to guys for plumping needs from here on out. Highly recommend to others.

I recently was gathering quotes from other plumbing companies in Westminster, that didn't even seem to want to do the work. After reaching out to Midwest Plumbing, they were thrilled to help, and was half the price of what other companies were charging to replace my sewer! I will only recommend, and use Midwest Plumbing from now on!

Jason at Big Apple Plumbing is truly the best. We needed a bidet installed for medical reasons, and Jason responded promptly. He redid the water line and had everything installed in under half an hour. He was extremely professional, respectful, and efficient. We couldn’t be happier with the service and highly recommend him.

When my water heater started leaking all over my basement Jason was able to come over very quickly and asess the situation. He got the new water heater installed same day and was very reasonably priced. I wouldn't hesitate to refer anyone to Big Apple for all their plumbing needs.

Jason was fast and efficient, resolving our flooding issue in under an hour. He quickly identified the cause as a clogged kitchen sink connected to the basement. He explained everything clearly and was very friendly and professional to have in our home.

Had a great experience with Midwest Plumbing. James is super responsive, available on short notice, and transparent about his prices. Very professional and did an excellent job on retrofitting an area under a counter to be dishwasher ready.
