Real feedback from homeowners who trusted Pipe Masters with their plumbing projects.
"Pipe Masters was upfront about pricing from the start. No surprise charges after the work was done. They fixed a pinhole leak in a copper line and replaced a section that was showing green corrosion."
"We had Pipe Masters fix a drain that had been backing up for months. Turned out there was a belly in the pipe under the driveway. They used pipe bursting to replace the section without digging up the concrete."
"Called about a running toilet that was driving up our water bill. The plumber replaced the fill valve and flapper in about twenty minutes. Simple fix but it was wasting gallons every hour."
