Wimpy's Plumbing & Air
Company Overview
🔺 Open 7AM-4PM 🔻 Quality Service Since 1973 🔺 Financing Plans Offered 🔻 Proudly Family Owned
Wimpy's Dependable Plumbing, Inc. began its journey in 1973. Winfred Butler, my father, chose to name his company after his nickname, ""Wimpy"", so people would remember the funny name and associate it with quality and dependable service.
After Wimpy's passing in 2003, I made the choice to uphold the same quality service our clients have come to expect. As a third-generation Sarasota native, I was immersed in the plumbing field from a young age and became the youngest master plumber in Florida at just 18. My sister, Lori, gave me the nickname ""Bubba"", who struggled to say brother. Lori, known for her joyful voice and lively spirit, has served as our office manager for 38 years.
Mike, my son, is the third generation of licensed master plumbers in our family. We are a family business dedicated to meeting your family's plumbing needs.
Thank you for trusting us with your plumbing needs!
Best regards, Bubba Butler
Mike is a third-generation master plumber in Sarasota. Starting young by helping his Dad Bubba with tools, he grew to love the variety that each plumbing job offers.

Recommended Customer Reviews

Just had Marco and Ben out to install a new state of the art A/C system. They were informative, polite and did the install in a timely manner and cleaned up everything. Cannot say enough about their service. Thanks again guys!

Highly responsive with estimate. I hired them on the spot once I understood the costs for the projects I have.. (I had received a previous estimate with another plumbing outfit). They replaced my water heater, kitchen sink and changed the guts of my guest toilet. All are now working properly. My kitchen sink and whole home's water pressure and quantity of hot water is great. I'd highly recommended them. The value for their services is good.

Wimpy's came for our 6 month AC filter change and checkup, our first one. Willie Shaw, the tech, changed the filter and answered all of our questions. He was polite, friendly, informative, and professional. He is an excellent representative of the company. Kudos to Willie! D. Dooley

Pleasant plumber did the job. Prices astronomical. Felt he just pulled the price out of the air. Had a few jobs I needed, but ended up just doing one. He wanted $400 to change a bathroom faucet 4 inch; cost if I provided the faucet, $500 of he put one of his own on there Unreal. As my husband says, Jesse James used a gun...

They charged $75 just to drive out to my residence, and then quoted me over $2,000 to repair a leaky bathtub faucet and """"re-build"""" two toilets and change a cartridge in another bathroom. Maybe these are the """"going rates"""" for plumbers, but that's just plain crazy to me!! If you call them, bust our your wallet because you'll need it.

Willie Shaw was great. Checked out unit throughly. Fixed a proble. Provide me with suggestions about how I could improve efficienc. Really personal

Our AC stopped working and I called Wimpy's and they were here to fix it within an hour. Their technician Willie Shaw is always very knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly. Willie always takes the time to explain everything that I need to know. I would highly recommend the company.

I was visiting a neighborhood friend when she mentioned that water had backed up in her tub and shower. A visiting nurse recommended Wimpy's, as she didn't have a local plumber, but had called a few and been put on a list. She got a return call within 5 mins, giving a time she could expect to see a plumber. Next, she got a text, giving the name of the plumber, a little background on his experience, and that he was on his way to her location. Next thing we knew, Steven was at her door. He not only had a friendly personality,but we both felt confident that he knew how to fix her problem. Plus, he explained other options, to prevent the problem from happening again. I seem to complain, a lot lately, that good service is hard to find. Don't people care anymore? Wimpy's Plumbing has restored my faith that there are still companies out there who care about their business and more importantly, the people they serve.

Prompt and professional service. Requested maintenance was done. Would definitely recommend. The technician educated me on technical aspects of my AC sentence which was much appreciated.

Have used Wimpy's for both AC and Plumbing and have been very happy with the work done. My grandparents always used Wimpys so now its a family tradition. If your looking for a honest family run company to handle your plumbing and AC needs look no further. Have had my Annual maintenance done on AC and never had any follow up issues technician showed me everything he was doing and what he found. Just recently had a Halo 5 whole home water filtration installed due to poor water quality and instantly had better water and everything looks so clean from the install. Totally worth having them out to your home.
