The site states the company is open on Saturday. I called Saturday at 0900 and the message stated to text them with the issue. I texted them and as of Tuesday have not received a response. I went elsewhere.

I would highly recommend Tom Plumb. He is reasonable and trustworthy.
Description of Work: We have used Tom several times in the past year. He has consistently made home repairs a breeze. The last time we used him it was to fix something a previous contractor did. We had a bathtub installed by a "professional contractor" who left us with a leaking, non functioning, not to code bathtub, Tom came in took one look and long story short fixed it!

I've used Tom Plumb for every plumbing need we've had over the past few years and he's always on time, professional, pleasant, easy to work with and reliable. Definitely have recommended him to friends, and can vouch for his good service.
Description of Work: We had a leak in our garage wall, so I called him this morning and he was able to be at my house by noon. Within the hour, he diagnosed the problem, replaced the faulty parts in our pipe, and fixed the issue overall. So easy!

From start ot finish, Tom was extremely responsive. Time came out for the Gas line repair to provide an estimate which was extremely reasonable. Since this is where Tom initially started in the business, the quality of his work on my Gas problem far surpassed other professionals I have used. The work was completed well within the initial estimate of both time and cost. A week later, I had Tom come out to replace the Flush Valve on the toilet in our guest bathroom. Again, Tom was right on time and completed the work well within the time and cost estimate. This required taking off the tank and replacing all parts. Tom is one of the best I have worked with. He is extremely polite, professional, and clearly communicates issues about the job performed. I am extremely satisfied with all aspects of his work and felt his prices were more than fair. I will continue to use Tom for all my plumbing needs and have no hesitation recommending him to friends and family.
Description of Work: Replaced over 25 feet of Gas line from the Meter to the main entry into the house. Replaced Flush Valve for the toilet in the guest bathroom

We contacted Tom and he came over same day and took care of the problem in an hour. He was very friendly and did a terrific job. Because he had to turn off the main gas line to the house, he followed up to make sure all of the gas appliances in the home were working properly before he left. Highly recommended.
Description of Work: We had water in the gas line that lead to our BBQ grill and were unable to use our BBQ.
