Motor City Building LLC did an awesome job with a drain snake on my plumbing issue. Super professional, responded right away, and got everything taken care of quickly. They also explained what was causing the problem in a way that actually made sense. On top of that, they offer home renovation services too—and I’m definitely planning to hire them for future work.

Richard was fantastic. on time, professional, and easy to communicate with. He did quality work, stayed longer than expected to make sure everything was done right, and went above and beyond throughout the job. You can tell he takes real pride in his work and treats your home like his own. I’d absolutely recommend him and will definitely work with him again. Worked on kitchen drains, outdoor spigot, toilet install and gas fittings.

I will certainly be reaching out to Richard again for any future plumbing needs. I was pleasantly surprised by how quickly he was able to come to my house on the same day I called. He promptly installed my toilet and did an outstanding job throughout the entire process. His attention to detail and craftsmanship were impressive, and he was very responsive to my questions and concerns. Additionally, Richard conducted himself in a highly professional manner, making the entire experience stress-free and efficient. It’s refreshing to find someone who takes pride in their work and values customer satisfaction. I highly recommend his services to anyone in need of plumbing assistance!

This guy is the real deal I was able to adjust to an earlier appointment and he came in ready. Replaced the old toilet with the new in no time. Cleaned up during the whole time and was very professional.
