Honest reviews from homeowners who chose Pipe Masters for their plumbing needs.
"Had a new gas line run from the meter to our kitchen for a gas range conversion. Everything was done to code, they scheduled the city inspection, and we passed first time. Very straightforward process."
"Our water heater started leaking from the bottom on a Friday evening. They had a new 50-gallon unit installed by Saturday afternoon. No cold showers for the family, thankfully."
"Needed a sewer cleanout installed because we had no access point for maintenance. They dug the spot, tied into the existing line, and now we can get the sewer scoped or cleaned without any hassle."
