David completed a job that another plumber refused to attempt. It involved using a jackhammer with a whole bunch of skill, experience, and creativity. His quote was the final price which is extremely unusual. David carefully explained what he was doing and even gave us options. We chose the one he thought was the best, because it made the most sense. We highly recommend David for any plumbing job no matter how large or small. He is the best!
This was the second time I have called David with Dry Spot. Both times service was incredibly fast and affordable. I called midday with a water heater issue yesterday and by midday today I am looking at a new system. He is friendly, professional, and does high quality work! Highly recommend!
Good dude, good work, good advice, good price, would recommend again, 5 Stars Has given me direction to fix an issue myself and saved me money. Called again for a job where a sink and dog bath need to be hooked in to the water and drain system of my home. The drain connection from the sink before had to be lowered in order to be able to properly drain from the new unit. Showed up on time, did the job as promised for a good price
I called David at 7 AM on a Sunday morning and he was at my house by 8:30. Because of a catastrophic fail of my water heater, it couldn't be fixed same day. Not David's fault. He ordered what I wanted (top of the line) and we now have hot water. David is very polite, kind and professional. My dad had used him for a remodel previously, so I was confident I had the right guy. I'll be using him again when I remodel my bathroom. All around great guy. Highly recommend!
After Apex told me they would be at my house between 8-12p and didn’t show up, i called David from dry spot and he immediately came out to check the issue. Turned out i had a frozen trap. I really appreciate him coming to my house immediately upon the phone call and took his time to assess all possible causes. It was an easy fix and i appreciate him responding so promptly when another company failed me.
