Honest reviews from homeowners who chose Pipe Masters for their plumbing needs.
"Sink in the guest bathroom was draining so slowly it was basically unusable. They cleared the p-trap and found it was packed with years of buildup. Drains like new and they cleaned up after themselves."
"Bathroom install for our basement finishing project. Toilet, vanity, and a walk-in shower. The plumber worked with our contractor seamlessly and everything was done on schedule."
"Needed the main water shutoff valve replaced because the old gate valve was frozen open. Not a fun job since it required cutting into the foundation wall, but they did it right and it works perfectly."
