Central Plumbing and their crew are without a doubt the most professional and efficient plumbers I've ever worked with. We have utilized their services for emergency plumbing, maintenance assessments, and the installation of a water filtration system and utility sink. They went above and beyond for all of their work and I will never work with another plumbing service again. Love these guys.

The workers were extremely careful to disrupt as little of the landscaping as possible. They had excellent communication skills, explaining our situation and how to solve it, letting us know when water would be shut off in advance, and taking care of all permits with the city. They were very careful inside the house and cleaned up after themselves as well. Work was completed in the stated amount of time and at the agreed upon price.
Description of Work: We had a sewer pipe collapse under our front porch. Central Plumbing suggested routing the piping over several feet and have it exit out the crawl space, capping off the pipe under the porch. Then the pipe was brought forward to to connect with the main sewer in front of the house.

I recommend him very highly. He explained what he was doing, gave me options and his opinion on what toilets, hot water heater and shower heads to select. Plus, a very nice guy with lots of experience.
Description of Work: He installed two toilets and had to put in some new pipes. My hot water heater died and he replaced it as well as two shower heads. He replaced the "U" shaped pipe under the laundry tub that was leaking badly. I thought it was my washing machine. Cleaned out sewer line and broke up cement that covered the drain. When I wasn't happy with the cement that continued to get wet, he came out right away and fixed it.

Individual from Central Plumbing (TJ) arrived as requested. We both went over what work was to be performed and he proceeded immediately to start the work Saddle valve removed and pipe replaced and reconnected. Vanity top, faucet, and drain pipe were next on the agenda as the water softener needed two (2) individuals to carry out due to the weight. Removed old vanity top, removed existing drain pipe in wall which required tedious work to remove solder bushing so as not to damage main drain pipe. Installed new vanity top, new faucet, new drain pipe, new shut offs, and appropriate connections to complete installation. After second individual arrived (who happened to be the owner), the water softener was removed and taken away. TJ then proceeded to replace the copper tubing and made the necessary connections. The quality and professionalism of the work was excellent. TJ did a First-Class job. And is very conscientious about his work and work ethic. Would not hesitate for a moment to call Central Plumbing again. A job well done!
Description of Work: Installed vanity counter top, faucet, and replaced drain pipe connected to main. Removed saddle valve above water heater and reconnected pipes. ( Replaced copper tubing) Removed water softener and replaced copper tubing .

Everything went very well. Tom and Rob were very flexible in scheduling their time around other contractors. On their first visit they disconnected sinks in the bathroom and kitchen that were going to be replaced and installed new shut off valves. They also installed a new toilet. They connected the new sinks on their second visit and did some other minor repairs. Everything was done very well. They showed up on schedule and worked around other tradesmen who were in the unit at the same time. I was very pleased.
Description of Work: Disconnected old sinks in kitchen and bathroom. Reconnected new sinks once installed. Replaced toilet. Other minor plumbing repairs.

Tom did a good job of fixing the problem. He tightened the handle in the shower and closed a gap on the faceplate in the bath tub where water was leaking through. He was good at explaining everything, and was courteous and professional.

Description of Work: We can not say enough good things about Central Plumbing. After having several companies out (referred to us by our home insurance company), we were provided faulty information and terribly high quotes to repair. We found Central Plumbing, they came out immediately, were able to resolve the issue in a timely manner at a reasonable cost! We highly recommend them to all and will continue to use the for any plumbing needs.

Kevin gave me an estimate, arrived on time, installed the system, made sure it worked correctly, and explained the operation to me. He cleaned the area around the HW heater after installing the pump and did the same in the master BA after installing the fittings. We are very happy with the system and the overall professionalism of Central Plumbing.
Description of Work: I wanted to install (retrofit) an instant hot water system in a newly purchased condominium. Kevin looked at my literature for the Grundfos pump system, found the pump and fittings locally and installed them.
