Recommended Customer Reviews

We have been using Fred and his team for all of our plumbing needs for years now, and he never disappoints. From small things like a toilet repair, to new construction waterwise is amazing.

I needed to relocate my emergency shut off water valves and replace my kitchen faucet. Fred was the technician who did all of the work. He was on time, professional, courteous and reliable. I highly recommend this company for your plumbing needs.

Fred and team are great! Water Wise completed a large job on my property installing a shower and washer drain, digging into foundation, re-routing gas / water and venting for drainage and dryer. They did an amazing job and were done in a day. Extremely reliable and professional. I trust Water Wise with all my plumbing issues.

We called Water Wise this morning, and they came out within the hour for a leak under our house. We have never used them before, and I was thrilled with every aspect in dealing with them, and the job well done....including the price. It's so tough these days to find reliable businesses who guarantee their work, and are experienced, hard working and get the job accomplished in a decent timeframe.
So relieved to now have a plumbing company I can trust.

Water Wise gave a professional finish to our in-progress sewer repair project for under $1,000, about half the cost of the next two lowest quotes.
After my potty overflowed into the family room, I called my previously good drain service. They cleared the roots in the drain to the street but only after multiple failures in communication with them. Their camera showed roots still lining the pipe, would grow back in a while. But that company quoted over $7,000 to dig up and repair and put back. Since the emergency was over, we took our time to find the best not-rushed service. After paying someone to dig it we confirmed the damage was only three feet deep and fully exposed the pipe to the drop elbow. After getting two quotes nearly $2000 I bought the parts for $100 and prepared to do it myself. But my wife reasoned I could mess it up. A handyman stopped by and said $400 but his description sounded less than plumber-skilled. Other companies had minimum charges just to come by and look at the hole in the ground. So I was happy that my wife found Water Wise. Their man recognized the proper materials here and the wrong materials there and in a day or two quoted us well below the other quotes. We were scheduled immediately and they did the work quickly. I missed giving my request for positioning the clean out. Their man came back and adjusted that and gone again so early that I didn't get to tip him in person. I was going to pay the previous diggers to do the back fill, but they wanted a lot more money than the original dig! So I filled it in myself in a couple of hours. So we saved $5,000 overall by being careful, and Water Wise alone was responsible for $1,000 of that savings.

Excellent and honest plumbing company. Have used them twice on my remodel projects and both times I felt like I finally met a contractor I could trust 100%. Excellent work and responsive. Perfect experience

Water Wise completed the plumbing for my Master and Hallway bathroom upgrades. Very professional and their bid was very competitive as compared to other plumbing services I researched.
Recently, I had a main waterline leak and from my experience with Water Wise, I gave them a call. They responded quickly and made sound recommendations. Once again, their estimate for a complete re-route and copper piping install was better than most. Fast, reliable and friendly! Water Wise will earn your trust. Fred and his crew are my go to plumbers.

Great service! It's been hard to find responsive and reliable contractors lately. With Water Wise I was able to get a quote almost immediately from Desiree, and Fred was able to come in on the same day. They even have a nice text messaging system that confirms the job details and lets you know when the plumber is on his way. Fred was no-nonsense and efficient in connecting our new sink and faucet, and even solved some extra problems (our garbage disposal had rocks in it and was missing a connection to the sink). Very trustworthy and kind company. We'll be using them again for any plumbing needs.

THANK YOU to this amazing team who got to my house quickly and solved my problem efficiently. I appreciate that they took the time to really figure out what was going on and explain the problem/solution clearly. Smart plumbers, and they care about quality work. Nice to know I have a reliable local team to help for the future. Thank you!!

Be extremely careful, now I just learned that this company did a hole in a ceiling wall without checking for asbestos, I may have inhaled asbestos due to their incompetent way of constantly trying to cut corners. Do not trust this company if you care about your health.
