Honest reviews from homeowners who chose Pipe Masters for their plumbing needs.
"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."
"Had the drains cleaned in our older home. The plumber used a hydro jetter on the main line and a snake on the smaller branch lines. Water flows perfectly now. Should have done this years ago."
"Garbage disposal stopped working completely. The plumber tried to reset it first and when that did not work he replaced it with a more powerful unit. Took maybe thirty minutes start to finish."
