Recommended Customer Reviews
Showed up on time, was courteous and efficient. I had under sink valves replaced plus dishwasher valve. Only issue was the dishwasher valve was not replace with 90 deg as previous valve causing some issues with undersink sliding shelves and cabinet closure.
Kate C.I moved into a new house and needed my dryer re-installed after a terrible job from another plumber. JD was able to quote and complete the work in the same day. Their staff was extremely professional and explained all of my options and everything in the process. I feel confident in the work that was completed. I would highly recommend this company!
Lizzy K.I called for a quote for someone to hook up a water heater. That's it. Everything is there all brand new ready to go. No quote over the phone someone has to come out and do an inspection and give a quote for everything they think you need etc. so we schedule it and the guy wants $1500! Not only that, but the quote cost $39.00 and they never tell you that. What a waste of time and $39.00
I had a leak in the kitchen faucet. I called to request a morning appointment, and Universal Plumbing was able to come out the same day. They came exactly when promised. Billy was very knowledgeable and professional and observed good Covid protocols. He was able to quickly diagnose and repair the problem, and gave me good advice for what to do in the event it were to recur. Another happy experience with good resolution.
Dishonest. Do not stand by their jobs. Fixed pipes inside the house - for almost $10,000, but conveniently withheld information that fixing inside problem isn't enough, must fix problem outside. Job for almost 10K lasted for a whole week...Then the company gave us estimate for outside job- for $24,000. Called another company for second opinion and problem was solved during 45 min for $249.
George S.These guys and gals were extremely professional from the phone call till the end of the install of our hot water heater. Got them quickly about a month ago to Harrison Cove. Thanks for the quick work as you have turned us into repeat customers!
Kelsey D.These guys are great, they came out same day to give me a quote (cheaper than several other companies) and also fixed the issue while they were here. Best plumbing company I've ever worked with.
Michelle K.Great company! They came out for an emergency repair, they were excellent at finding the problem & very fair with their pricing! They completed my job in a day from start to finish!!!
Would highly recommend!
Emanuel S.Universal always does a great job quickly and at a fair. I have used them many times and it always the same great service.
Celia D.Chip from Universal Plumbing just left my daughters home in RO. This young man knows his ""stuff""!!! He snaked the floor drains and the laundry tub drain due to slow drainage. The yuck he pulled out of these drains was disgusting.
I had a million questions for Chip, and he was kind enough to answer every single one. I got quite the education today and am very grateful for Chips patience and doing such an excellent job here. He even cleaned up after he was finished and sprayed disinfectant as well.
I would highly recommend Universal Plumbing. I will ask for Chip if it's a job he can do.
