Dan is an excellent plumber. I was impressed by his skills and professionalism. I even threw him a curveball for another project and he quickly fixed it. Totally satisfied.

I am very appreciative of the quick turnaround to my plumbing problem. I had the rude awaking to water streaming down one of my basement walls and ceiling. Turns out, it was the corroded laundry room faucet and iron buildup in the drain that was to blame. Dan answered the call very early in the morning and showed up a short time later to make the very necessary repairs. He handled the issue quickly and professionally with a no nonsense attitude that I can appreciate. I’m not sure what to going rate is for that kind of repair but for the time and effort he put into the job I feel that we paid a fair and reasonable price. I highly recommend Kelsey Mechanical if your in need of any plumbing services.

I am extremely satisfied with the service that was provided. I was contacted right away, and repairs were carried out the same day in a quick and professional manner. Pricing was very fair and transparent, and I was given different options on how to proceed. I will definitely hire again for any plumbing needs and can only recommend Kelsey Mechanical
