Real feedback from homeowners who trusted Pipe Masters with their plumbing projects.
"We had a clogged toilet that a plunger could not fix. The plumber used an auger and pulled out a toy car my toddler had flushed. Problem solved in ten minutes and he was really nice about it."
"Our dishwasher was leaking from the supply line. The plumber replaced the braided hose and the shutoff valve under the sink since it was corroded. Quick fix that prevented a much bigger problem."
"They repiped our entire second floor from old polybutylene to PEX. The work was clean, they patched the drywall access points, and the inspector had zero issues. Worth every penny for the peace of mind."
