I contacted Charleys about the issue with my bathroom faucet and tub sprout diverter. He is so responsive. I messaged him with the pic and described the issues through the message, and he provided me with all the professional suggestions and explained to me how to fix the issues under different types of potential causes. Very appreciated!!! Highly recommended!

Charley is a true professional. Not only is he always prompt and extremely responsive by phone, he is honest. Charley did a lot of work on my grandfather's house that has plumbing dating back to the 1960's. He was fair with his pricing and extremely knowledgeable about all the work he had to do. He sent an invoice via email with a full breakdown of the costs, so we were fully in the loop with the work he was doing.

Charley always entered my grandparents' home with boot covers, which shows just how professional and detail-oriented he is. He never left a mess and always communicated what he was doing and explained it in a way that we could all understand. I truly think that this is sets him apart from anyone else in the trade.

After my grandfather's passing, we had an issue with a shower knob, breaking off- we called Charley and he was in the house diagnosing the problem within 30 minutes. He placed a temporary knob and had to order a part, with the promise that he would contact us when the part came in, and he did just that. Charley did not even charge us for the universal knob and any of the work that he did as a courtesy to us after losing my grandfather- if that doesn't show what top-notch customer service this man provides, I don't know what will. We will be Charley's customers for life, and recommend him to anyone needing plumbling help.

Texted Charles to see if he could come out to help us clear the drain in the kids' lavatory.

He came out the next day when he had an opening.

Inspected the drain, cleaned it out, and gave us some quick tips to remedy the clogging.

Always a pleasure working with Charles.

Thank you!

We had a water leak in the main pipe of and Charley was amazing. He stands behind his work and is super helpful and nice. From start to finish, he was with utmost professionalism, efficiency, and expertise.

We previously had another company come in and they made a mess of the situation. I then called Charley to get a quote and he stopped by to look at the leak because he was in the area and made solid recommendations on how to repair the leak. Once he started the work, it became evident that their knowledge and experience were top-notch. They quickly diagnosed the plumbing issue, explaining the problem to me in simple terms and outlining the best course of action. Their transparent and honest approach was truly appreciated.

His friendly demeanor and willingness to go the extra mile was awesome. He called and texted me two days later to check if he had turned on the heater and if we had hot water. No hidden fees. If you're looking for a plumbing company you can trust, look no further - Charley is the one!

Charley is the best! He is professional, intelligent, very skillful, and honest. We had a bad case of water leak in craw space, had to move out of the house for weeks. Having Charles there for us was the easiest and most pleasant part of the whole process. Go with him and you will never need another plumber. So glad we found him!

Thank you, Charles.

Charley's Plumbing has been a pleasure to work with. We've reached out to Charley's Plumbing on numerous occasions for our office. We are a dental office that had severe back up issues with our vacuum and pumps. Charles (owner) was efficient and quick with each project and communicated very well. Charley's Plumbing is definitely our point of contact for all plumbing needs!

We would rate Charles a 10/10!

He was quick, professional, and made our home feel safer!
We had previously renovated our home with a terrible contractor. There were so many issues, but the main one that we asked Charles to come out was to repair one of our 2nd floor toilets was never connected to the sewage drain, and another line had just begun leaking too.

Charles was through, explained the process to us, and even checked other parts of the house to tell us what needed to be corrected now and what could wait for another day because of funding and we were expecting our baby soon.

Thanks again for helping us through our ordeal!

Charles is professional and very responsive. I had a leaky single handle shower valve. Another plumber solution was to replace the entire valve assembly by cutting the pipes around it. Very $$$. Charles came in, diagnosed the problem correctly as the back end of the valve assembly, replaced it and bingo, problem solved.
I recommend Charley's Plumbing services.

Needed some basic plumbing repairs (toilet running, faucet dripping, garbGe disposal frozen).
Charles was responsive, proficient, and fair.
He did the repair on the faucet, but he wasn't completely satisfied so he ordered a part (it's an older model faucet) that came in after the work was completed. As soon as the part came in, he called to see if he could come install it. Above and Beyond service!
I would recommend Charley's Plumbing to anyone in need of repair/replacement.
