Recommended Customer Reviews
I needed a new sink disposal installed, and Alex came out the next day. Very professional and knowledgable -- I didn't know this company has been providing service for decades! Alex explained details and finished up quickly, ensuring that the project was completed correctly. I'll be calling again the next time I need help - I highly recommend Starving Plumbers!
We had Starving Plumbers install our water heater. They do an annual flush each year. They are professional, expert plumbers. I especially liked that Alex gave good advice in how to prolong the life of our plumbing fixtures and prevent plumbing problems.
Chris F.I had a new fridge delivered and found out I didn't have a waterline in my new townhome. I called up and had Jake come over to set it up. Ended up needing to come up with a brand new solution on how to get the waterline set up and he walked me through the whole solution step by step. By the end of the day - my fridge is working like a charm! Water and ice included!
Bonus points - he spent extra effort making friends with my dog as well! 10/10 amazing and recommended.
I needed a new water heater and my property management company called Starving Plumbers. Eric promptly came out, inspected the problem and advised a new water heater was needed. He prepared and submitted a replacement proposal, which was promptly approved. The installation was quickly scheduled. Alex was the installer. Prompt, clean, friendly, professional, and efficient. I can't say how happy I am with their service enough and have recommended them to my friends. I highly recommend them!
I am extremely impressed and very grateful to Starving Plumbers! In a time when some service companies cut corners or take advantage, Starving Plumbers obviously operates on a model of excellence. They are fast, kind, clean, efficient and thorough. I would highly recommend Starving Plumbers!
Great company to work with. Easy to schedule, good availability, skilled plumbers and not crazy expensive-- we've had Alex to the house twice and each time he was friendly, thoughtful and knowledgeable.
Alex from Starving Plumbers came out to do the annual cleaning and de-scaling maintenance on the Navien Tankless Water Heater they had installed. Very thorough and professional job. Also fixed a leaking shower head and went under the house to adjust the main Pressure Reducing Valve. Really went the extra mile, as usual. An hour well spent!
Alex did a great job fixing our leak; he was very friendly and professional. He did the work in a timely manner, and used quality replacement parts. Very recommended!
On time, brought along the right part because I'd provided him with pics of the problem so he knew what to bring, was in and out in about thirty minutes, polite, intelligent, and wore booties over his work boots to not bring dirt or debris from the wet pavement on the carpeted staircase to the second floor of this townhome and on to the carpeted landing as well.
I would recommend you keep them on your perhaps ""preferred service provided"" list of plumbers.
Our property management uses this company with usually good results and called them to unclog a kitchen sink at our rental property. Unfortunately the technician failed to write down the details of the nature of the clog (grease? Food? Objects?) therefore we got stuck with the bill.
I would like to be able to use their services again, but only if their technicians are reliable with the details of their services.
