Blaine helped me with a plumbing emergency I was super stressed about. He came in and fixed the shotty work of one of the "best" plumbing companies in the area. I will use him every time moving forward! Highly reccommend.

Blaine was great. He came by the same day and helped me with my problem. He also found other issues I was not aware of, that I can take to the warranty office. He is who I will rely on in the future. Highly recommended.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My prices are based off the project. I do have an hourly price. But I will also give an estimate for the project if that is what a client wants. I do have a small fee for estimates as it takes time to go to customer(s) home or business to diagnose problem customer may have or discuss what the client is looking to have done, then price materials and estimate time to start and complete job then write an detailed estimate for customer to know exactly what will be done or may need to be done and fuel is getting expensive these days. I do offer Military and 1st Responders a Discount as well to show my Appreciation for what they do for us.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I will contact customer to find out there needs and then schedule a home visit with them and which I will work around there schedule.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I've been in the plumbing trade for 15+ years now started as a helper with my Friends older brother who went out on his own after 🌀 Katrina to small companies and big companies. My education and training have been hand's on in the field training. I've been trained by different plumbers with different skills. From being a helper to a Foreman in the Local 60 running 4 projects on the same job site. A middle school, Elementary school, Chill Water system for both buildings and the site work from the 6” cast iron mainline sewer to the 6” Ductile piping for the sprinkler system per building. I know I do not know everything or every way about plumbing or everything but I am very knowledgeable and not afraid to listen to other thoughts,suggestions and opinions nor am I afraid to just Do It and Get It Done is Cleanest as I possibly can and take pride in it while doing!
