Honest reviews from homeowners who chose Pipe Masters for their plumbing needs.
"Called for a leak detection appointment. They used some kind of acoustic equipment and found a slab leak under the living room. Gave us three options for repair with honest pricing on each one."
"We had Pipe Masters fix a drain that had been backing up for months. Turned out there was a belly in the pipe under the driveway. They used pipe bursting to replace the section without digging up the concrete."
"We had a frozen pipe burst in the crawl space during the cold snap. They replaced the damaged section and insulated the exposed pipes so it would not happen again. Smart, not just reactive."
