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."
"Had Pipe Masters install a backflow preventer after our city sent a compliance notice. They handled the install and the testing certification in one visit. Passed inspection on the first try."
"Whole house was getting terrible water pressure. Turned out the main shutoff valve was partially closed and calcified. They replaced it and the pressure regulator. Like a brand new house now."
