I have known Curt form Stake Plumbing of about 10 years. I recently had the opportunity to use his services. He installed a soak tub, rewired the lines in the basement, and going to the exterior faucet's. He installed a new kitchen faucet, fixed a leaking toilet, installed a new hot water tank and ran a gas line in the basement to the new heating system, the fireplace and the exterior for venting. I think the most impressive was the gas connections as it I do not think of this is a plumbing person job. We had to have the heating company, fireplace company, chimney lining installer and him all here at the same time. He was supervising their work and working well with them to get the job den and in a timely manner, especially since it was heating season and we were without any heat. He was on site until the job was done (until 9pm). His prices for the same "normal" plumbing jobs seems high but plumber generally are high. The cost for the gas piping seems very reasonable, especially given the length of tie he was here.

I was putting shelves up in the garage with my father in law when POP, we drilled a hole right through a water pipe. It was a Saturday and we didn't know what to do. We called multiple "emergency" plumbers and didn't receive a single call back. Google brought up Stake Plumbing, and after seeing their reviews, we called them up. Curtis immediately answered the phone, and he was at our house in 10 MINUTES. On a SATURDAY. Sure he lives close by, but he was here so fast and repaired the pipe professionally and quickly, we didn't even have to change our lunch reservation. Curtis is a really nice guy, and has clear mastery of his trade. He made a really bad situation as painless as possible, and we are very grateful.

Curt replaced two sinks and two toilets at one property, and faucets, tub spouts, and shower heads at another. He is professional, detail oriented and organized. He will make your job a priority and will call if he can get in earlier than the scheduled date. As many of you know, having a talented and dependable plumber is priceless; plumbing is often an urgent need and it helps to build the relationship ahead of time. Take a close look at your plumbing and do some preventative updates to old tired fixtures that are at the end of their useful life. I'll be using Curt again in the near future to replace sewer drainage pipes that are rusted and showing surface moisture.

Stake Plumbing is extraordinary. My plumber now for over seven years, Curt has literally come to our rescue many times for everything from weekend & overnight emergencies (leaking toilet, frozen pipes, etc) to major installs, including the install & plumbing for new baths in two Re-hab projects, as well as a major natural gas lines install project for our whole house generator. Not only is Curt incredibly responsive and fairly priced, but he literally leaves the house cleaner than he found it. I would unreservedly recommend Curt to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, professional plumber that can't be beat. Gary V

Stake Plumbing is fantastic!! They recently installed all the plumbing in my new 3 car garage & work shop, which included a new complex water filtration system, hot water, sinks, rerouting well lines, and irrigation feeds and external spigots. All their work was to high standards, on time, and competitively priced. They also stand behind their work.... when a well pump check valve started acting up, they came out immediately and replaced at no charge. Curtis Jr. is a knowledgeable and hardworking professional, and a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend them!

Curtis Stake did an outstanding job converting our electric stove to an LPG stove. He coordinated seamlessly, was punctual, and showed up immediately before and after the propane tank was delivered by another company to ensure everything was connected and running smoothly. His excellent text messaging system kept me updated on his schedule, arrival times, and important job details. Curtis provided a written itemized estimate and I paid exactly what was quoted after the job was completed. I will definitely be hiring him for any future plumbing needs. Highly recommend!

I'm a first time home owner, and (knock on wood) I needed to make my first home repair that required a plumber. I called about 10 places. All of them were big companies charging and arm and a leg! I called stakes and it was just what I was looking for a small family owned business. They were here the next day, even though they said they originally said they might be too booked to come by this week. They still made it happen. Not only did he fix it really quick but he showed me exactly what the problem was and explained why. Also very reasonabley priced!!

CURTIS came to my house today to replace a drainage set up behind the washer that was leaking. He was prompt on taking my call, giving me an estimate, and setting up a time to arrive. Curtis was very polite and professional. He changed the drainage set up, tested it for leakage, and snaked out the drain. His price was very reasonable. He and his father are partners so they don't have the high overhead that large plumbing contractors have. I am so grateful to have found an honest, reliable, prompt, polite, plumber.

I had an issue with my water heater not heating up, so I called Stake Plumbing. They were very responsive and sent Curtis out to diagnose the problem. He quickly found the issue and went the extra mile by also informing me that my sink drain pipe had a crack and would leak whenever the sink was on. I really appreciate his thoroughness and professionalism. The service was top-notch, and I’m very happy with the experience. Highly recommend Stake Plumbing for their honesty, expertise, and great customer service!

Stake Plumbing is just great! I first encountered them when they sub-contracted on a bathroom remodel and was very impressed by both the quality of their work and by the fact hat they were just really nice guys. When we recently had a plumbing emergency we reached out via phone and were able to get the issue evaluated immediately and repaired in timely (and friendly) manner. Five Stars!

Curtis responded immediately when we were dealing with water overflow due to the clog. He communicated appropriately, ultimately arranging a time to conduct complete service on a clogged ejector pump within 24 hours. Thorough explanation was provided, accompanied by photos of the repair. Professional, patient communication from Curtis throughout the scheduling and repair process.

Called Stake Plumbing to help with a leak from a bathroom. Curties was quick to take action, very professional throughout all my interactions and quick to fix the issue. I felt Curtis went above and beyond to inspect the issue, fix and test the fix to ensure there was not going to be any further issues. Definitely will recommend and use again for future plumbing needs.
