The evidence — in reviewers' own words
Critical
“This is a company you’ll want if you want to see them every 18 months, because on average that’s how long their work is good for. We called for malfunctioning sewage ejector. They did give us two options, replace the float or the entire pump for literally twice as much. Not much later the pump stopped working again and wouldn’t you know it? The whole thing would need to be replaced. Now less than two years later …”
Positive
“Sean and Ameth were top of the line plumbing professionals. On time, courteous, knowledgeable and friendly. They know there stuff from start to finish. I’ll only be using L&M for all my plumbing needs in the future. Highly recommended by a construction contractor, myself. 5 stars for them both!!! Our water is now clean, drinkable and no more worrying about bacteria in our well water !!”
“The team at L&M Plumbing were very helpful in troubleshooting my frozen pipes. I had guests coming for the weekend and they were able to come to the house the next day, even though the house is outside their usual territory. The communication was very good, not seen by many plumbers these days.”
