Recommended Customer Reviews

I have used Armour plumbing and have received great service at a great price! They installed a new sink for me and replaced a toilet . I got the best quote for replacing my hot water heater and they will be doing that for me as well !

Assistance was same day within just a few hours. The Technician, Jacob, was excellent. This is the second time I have received superior service from this company. My mother used this same company for many years, too. Thank you for your service!

Jason at Armour Plumbing came out to my place in Winterville last Friday and was just wonderful!! I had been having trouble with my water pump and was afraid I would need a new one. When he tested the power to the pump he found it wasn't getting enough power. He troubleshot it all the way back to the main breaker box outside my house. He also repaired the loose drain pipes under my house and the bill wasn't nearly as much as I had feared. After having an electrician replace the breaker the pump worked fine. Thank you, Jason, for being honest and helping me out. I highly recommend this company and will use them again!

I gave armour plumbing 1 star because the job was completed in a timely manner and did not leak, although after 7 or 8 days later it did not drain either. I took 4 stars away for the following reasons. Work was not completed as agreed upon. Our kitchen sink is located about 10 ft from the water heater. During the initial consultation, the plumber said they could """"T"""" off the hot water line and run one pipe directly to the kitchen sink so we would have almost instant hot water. When the plumbing was being installed, I reminded the lead plumber about """"T-ing"""" off the hot water and running a line to the kitchen. He assured me it was in the plans. After the work was finished, we discovered it took 50-60 seconds to get hot water in the kitchen. When I called Armour to ask about the problem, they told me the hot water line ran to a manifold towards the middle of our house about 15 feet away and it would not have helped to run a line directly to the kitchen. The manifold is about 25 ft from the water heater and the hot water has to travel about 60 ft to reach the kitchen. If they had done the work as agreed on, we would have hot water in 9-10 seconds and not 50-60 seconds. Poor quality work. About 7-8 days after the installation our drain pipes completely clogged up and water over flowed from the clothes washer discharge pipe. We called Armour and they sent a man to clear the pipe 2 days later. He said the original plumbers probably left some debris in the pipe which caused the clog. They charged $135 to come out to fix their own shoddy workmanship. NO guarantee for their work, No offer of a price discount, NO apology. Poor invoice management. Armour charges $55 to come to your house to evaluate the situation and give a cost estimate which we paid after the initial visit. After paying for the plumbing work, we realized they did not credit us the $55 already paid. I called Armour and was told they would send us a check. We did not receive a check and called again. This time we were told the $55 had been conducted from the invoice. The invoice does not list any credit for previous payments. The $55 plus the $135 for fixing their own original shoddy work are just bonus payments we get to donate to Armour. When they installed the new plumbing under the kitchen sink, they drilled new holes through the bottom of the cabinet and through the floor (I don't know what was wrong with the original holes). We lost some storage space because they put the new holes 2-3 inches towards the front of the cabinet. In addition they didn't bother to patch or fill the old holes, so now we have nice little highways from our crawl space to how kitchen for any critters that manage to get under our house (think mice or snakes). We called Armour plumbing and asked to speak with the owner or manager to discuss these problems before writing a review. Nobody bothered to call us back.

Armour stepped up twice for me in an emergency with quick help and great service. The first time, my hot water tank began leaking, and my plumbing company of 25 years said """"we will be there in 2 weeks."""" Armour, new to me, came that day. Recently, I had a pipe break, flooding my home while I was gone. My neighbor called, I called Armour, and they were onsite in 1 hour, fixed the leak, and found the problem. They are great!!

Contacted Armour Plumbing & Well Service about doing a job and never got a response. It has been over a week and they obviously don't want the job. Take your business elsewhere.
