Positive
“Steve Waker and his crew were exceptional in the repair of our water main leak in September of 2024. My husband and I secured 3 bids for the repair and Steve’s quote was WELL, (by $2000-$5000), under the other 2 plumbing companies quotes. Steve also spoke knowledgeably about our situation. Steve knows all rules and regulations regarding water main repair as it pertains to the City of Oakwood. Our yard was NOT torn …”
“Had a portion of our gas line and key valve for our fireplace replaced. Crew did a wonderful job and in a timely manner. Will be using their services again in the future and would highly recommend this company.”
