Company Overview

After 35 years in the trades, I've seen it all. I arrive promptly, understand the task at hand, and that's all there is to it.

I believe it was in 1980 when I left high school to start my career; back then, being in construction was exciting, and it offered a solid income while constantly learning. Now, at 60, I'm enjoying my journey, primarily focusing on plumbing repairs, but I can handle anything—except painting; I really dislike it, so please don't ask. My primary goal is to operate a reliable business and work with genuine people.

I grew weary of working for faceless corporations led by inexperienced individuals; I've dedicated my life to the construction trade, and I can genuinely perform the work, not just discuss it. For me, the joy comes from the work itself, excelling in my craft, providing value to my customers, and earning a decent living; it also keeps me youthful, alert, and engaged.

Water backup in shower. Mr Packwood showed up in two hours and cleared the blockage. Totally excellent service.

As a one man shop, the person is not very responsive. He is unavailable or responsive on weekends. Finally, I made the mistake of paying in cash for the service visit but by that time the clog had cleared, and though he said he'd email an invoice, he still has not sent it after 5 days. So solvable by sending an invoice but he hasn't. Is it 5th child now? I thought you said 9th! Please feel free to send me my invoice and I'll remove this post! Thank you!

Fred was absolutely fantastic. On time and high quality work. The project ended up a bit more complicated that initially thought, but Fred insisted on getting it done right before he left. I will definitely be reaching out to him again in the future for more projects! THANK YOU!!

Fred was great! He quoted us a price and when he hit a small hiccup along the way he stayed true to his quote. Also had a small issue a week later and he came back out and got it fixed up. Definitely would recommend!!

We had a HUGE toilet emergency 2 days ago and I immediately went to Yelp. I read ALL comments for every plumber listed. My first choice: Fred's 35 years of experience, """" the nicest guy you could work with"""" review of just 8 days ago, and consistent praise for his just/ fair pricing. He text messaged me immediately. Yelp has ALWAYS come out great - - esp if you very slowly and carefully study all comments for all resources. Fred came today, Saturday as promised late Thursday when he answered my inquiry, I have had 4 OLD multi bathroom homes in 4 states, so I KNOW when I find not only an experienced knowledgeable honest plumber but also a very very fine decent good human being to work with. It took Fred awhile to tackle our tough project and the conclusion was we had a seriously dead toilet. He helped me find a top quality Kohler on sale at Home Depot and gave us a good price to install the new toilet, tear out the sink's extended narrow counter above the old toilet/ replace the vanity ( new counter) repair paint wall where the extended narrow counter formerly was attached to the wall. We scheduled his return and I look forward TO MANY YEARS working with such a hard working honest decent person!

Mr. Packwood was prompt, thorough, competent, and knowledgeable of the project in installing a light fixture into our ceiling fan. We would absolutely be comfortable calling on him for other household work.
