The evidence — in reviewers' own words
Positive
“George was extremely reasonable. We were lucky that he had immediate availability and was efficient to remove the old water heater and install a new one in about 1 hour. Afterwards, he took additional time to explain what he did, and several things we could do to keep the maintenance of the appliance. He answered our questions with transparency. I would recommend this company to anybody.”
“I called last minute for an urgent request for George to check out an alert for our MOEN leak detection alert. On a Saturday night, George came out and did a whole home survey and was within an hour able to identify a few quick fixes. He was kind, knowledgeable, and never pressuring us for upsales. I wholeheartedly recommend George for any plumbing needs.”
