Recommended Customer Reviews

Called these guys to fix a badly clogged sink. They arrived right on time and took care of the sink very quickly. Pricing was fair and I was pleased with their work. Finally found my go-to plumbers!

I needed a shut off valve for the gas line so I could use my new gas range as I was switching from electric to gas. Anchor came out the next day and installed the shut off valve and gas line to reach my new range. They could have stopped there as that was all they were required to do, but they hooked up the range, made sure there were no leaks and removed all the packaging from the range. They then realized that I didn't have the correct outlet behind my range. Since I wasn't moved into the home yet I didn't have an extension cord to plug in the range. They went to their truck, got an extension cord, and proceeded to verify that the range was properly working before they left. They definitely went above and beyond! Thank you for a great job!!

Arrived on time, and they were able to help figure out what was the problem with my water heater. Didn't have hot water for days, and even though I preferred a fix, they suggested to replace the whole heater since it's been 15 years. These people know what they're doing and they do it with affordable prices! They replied fast and very accomadating!

They took my problem with a leaking water heater seriously and fit me in right away. The plumbers were on time and tended to the pressure relief valve in the front yard while I ran to Home Depot for the heater. They were fast and professional and I would recommend using them to anyone.

The day after we closed on our house, we had water shooting out of a pipe in our front yard! Not a good welcome to the neighborhood. Anchor Plumbing was able to quickly get us on their schedule and fix the issue. They were extremely polite and professional on the phone and when doing the repairs. Will most definitely call them for any future needs!!

Great job from Anchor. Efficient, competent, well priced. Thank you. Responsive to my request for a price and scheduled a trip immediately. Fixed our clogged drain in no time at a very fair price.

I waited 65 days to write this review so that I could thoroughly assess the quality of parts and workmanship provided by Anchor Plumbing Services.

Contacted Anchor Plumbing Services for a quote on June 4, 2020 at 8:58 PM.
Informed a representative by the name of Paul A. that I would like (1) my old 3/4-inch copper sweat fitting shutoff valve to be replaced with a 3/4-inch male adapter fitting + 3/4-inch ball valve; (2) replace corrugated copper tubes with 3/4-inch stainless steel water supply lines + thread them onto new ball valve; and (3) connect water lines to water softener using adapters (e.g., 1" threaded coupling, 1" x 3/4" threaded bushing, 3/4" nipple).
8 hours and 30 minutes later, Paul A. replied requesting clarification on whether I am hooking up to a new softener or the one in the picture I had sent him. After I told him it would be to a new softener, he quickly replied, "Ok gotcha! Our cost to do what your asking is app 288.00 and that is with all material as well."
I, then, requested that we schedule an appointment. Again, he promptly replied, "Absolutely, can you send me your address and contact number and I'll book it."
On the afternoon of our scheduled appointment at 12:05 PM, I contacted Paul A. to inquire about the expected arrival of the plumber and whether the plumber would call me before arriving. Paul A. assured me, "Should be within the hour but we will call prior to our arrival."
Indeed. At 12:27 PM, two male plumbers from Anchor Plumbing Services arrived, started, and finished before 1:20 PM.

It has been 65 days since then and the shutoff valve is still working. I successfully used it to shut off water to the house on several occasions, that is, to repair pipes, toilets, and install a pressure reducing valve below the 3/4-inch ball valve.
With regard to soldering quality, it is sloppy but effective. It has observable runs, but the temperature was good and seems to have fully penetrated. Aesthetically speaking, the soldering could have been made to look a little nicer, but my primary concern is reliability. Thus I am still awarding Anchor Plumbing Service a 5-star rating.
On a final note, I am unable to find the hex nipple 3/4" male NPT I had installed on the corrugated copper pipes before the plumbers' visit. I think the plumbers may have inadvertently taken it away as they were hauling the old pipes to their truck. Nonetheless, it is only an $8.00 part, so I will not hold that against their 5-star rating.

Boys came out first thing after I called the night prior around 5:00pm. Quick service, didn't feel like it was an unfair deal. Will be calling them for the next job, without a doubt.

I've had Anchor Plumbing Services to my house a few times. Bottom line? They are my go to Plumbers! I've had them fix a shower head, install faucets, a hot water heater and today they installed a water softener. Henry and Taylor were fantastic! Very efficient, clearly knowledgeable about their work and the install was awesome! This company hires honest, decent workers. They don't try to sell you anything you don't need and they clearly love their work! If you need a plumber? This is the company to call!

I did not hire Anchor Plumbing to replace my water heater but their response was fast and a good consult/estimate. I'm writing this on 7/29/2020 and we're in the middle of COVID, so home visits are fewer. Mr. Paul called me back and we facetimed with our iPhones so he was able to see what I needed. Initially, I wanted a hybrid water heater to replace my old one. However, after talking with Mr. Paul, there's a lot more involved than simply switching our units. He was frank about how a hybrid needed to work with building codes. Other plumbers I took estimates from didn't seem to know or were willing to skirt the rules. I'd rather have someone tell me "possible but" rather than do the work halfbaked, and I have to deal with it years later when I sell the house. For my next plumbing fix I'm definitely giving them a call.
