McDade Plumbing

Robert McDade is the best plumber we have ever used. He is professional, prompt, and always does what he says he will do. He is an excellent plumber and it was a pleasure having him at our house.

This is an older family home that my sisters and I inherited from our parents. It had a mixture of PVC piping and old galvanized pipe that was slowly, but surely crumbling into problem after problem. Back in October of 2025, the whole month went by before the city notified us that a leak had been occurring. It was undetectable inside the house, but the leak was there and the water bill was expensive. Other plumbers had been out to the house before and would spot patch...some which took hold and some that didn't. The repairs were costly. When I was lucky enough to have contacted Robert McDade, he came out and went over every inch of the house and then communicated all the issues...what was wrong and also what was wrong with some of the patch jobs. As he went about his business, you could just tell he knew what he was doing and what he was talking about. Through the process many issue were fixed from the toilet being completely rebuilt and a kitchen faucet that was causing problems being replaced. The biggest project that we decided to do was the removal of ALL galvanized piping in the home. Robert worked very hard for 3 days replacing all the piping in the home with PEX pipe. He replaced an old permanently attached shower head with one that is now just "zen" to use. The piece of mind knowing that all the galvanized issues are gone is a huge relief. It's like the house has new arteries. One final project that Robert worked with us on was that the drain from the bathroom sink was leaking inside the walls and causing some wood rot. When the wall was opened, there was also a small patch of black mold. Robert efficiently fixed the drain leak and had a remediation team come clean and sanitize the black mold out. We are having that wall replaced. So, even though this wasn't like a routine service call, it was a HUGE project that Robert tackled with professionalism. He communicated what was going on every step of the way. Where has a plumber like this been all our lives? I don't want to call any other plumber other than Robert McDade from now on. I sincerely can't express enough how grateful we are on the work done and the stress that is now eliminated about the plumbing in the home. Thank you.

We had 1 plumber come out that looked under the house, never came inside, and quickly gave us an inflated quote, and left promptly with no short term solution for the leak we were experiencing. Robert added us to his schedule and came to the rescue! He was able to troubleshoot & diagnose the problem in just a few minutes. He gave us good news that it was a hot water leak, so we were able to turn on the cold water to the house & be able to flush the toilet, etc. He fixed the emergency issue in about 20 minutes (even with having to dig & fight thorns under the house) and gave a quote for the long term project that was $1500 less than the 1st guy. McDade Plumbing has earned my business for good!

3 hours - $2500.00 simple job. Not even a Neurosurgeon makes that kind of money. The man simply has no integrity. We did 10 hours of work and located the leak ourselves. We even talked to the original house contractor to tell him how the copper was looped to the next fixture. He just did a simple re-route. The job was worth $250.00

Robert did a great job fixing our broken washer drain line which required jackhammering the foundation. He gave us two separate quotes, with one adding a descale and hydro jet of the rest of the existing cast iron pipes(which we chose to do), and he exceeded our expectations in every way, including price, even though after starting he discovered the concrete was twice as thick as the standard. He still finished on time and even sent pictures of before and after cleaning the pipes. Very happy and will definitely recommend and use them in the future!
