Scheduling and the repair job were easy and k dependable. These plumbers are have professional follow-through. I have now found forever plumbers that I can count on and trust.”
“I've dealt with Jordan and Wallace Plumbing a couple of times. He is smart, nice and sharp. Wallace also stands behind its work. Jordan quickly diagnosed an alarming sound coming from the pipe leading into my water softener and fixed, promptly. I would not call anyone else for my plumbing.”
