I have hired Dwayne a couple of times now and always appreciated his help to fix plumbing issues and/or necessary maintenance work.
This time was no different with quick back-and-forth to figure out the timing for the visit and Dwayne came on time and quickly fixed the toilet that was leaking water from the tank to the bowl as well as doing the annual descaling of the tankless waterheater.
Will continue to hire Dwayne in the future.

Great experience with rapid responsiveness. My waterheater broke and they were able to come by to diagnose the issue same day. The specific part I needed was backordered, but they were able to find a solution to get everything up and running the next day.

I’m very satisfied with the excellent service provided by Dwayne in the repair of our gas waterheater. After doing some diagnostic tests on the unit, he immediately figured out the problem on why the heater was not putting out any hot water. The work was completed in about an hour. I have no qualms in seeking him out again for any future plumbing issues and also in recommending him to family and friends with similar problems. Thank you Dwayne!

Dwayne repaired an eroded pipe in our garage and did a wonderful job. He took the time to explain the issue and quoted a very fair price for the work being done. Communication was always straight forward with him and he got the job done efficiently. Would recommend him and will be using him again in for future plumbing needs.
