Company Overview

🔺 Available from 7AM to 4PM 🔻 Quality Service Since 1973 🔺 Flexible Financing Options 🔻 Proudly Family Owned
Wimpy's Dependable Plumbing, Inc. was established in 1973. The business was named ""Wimpy"" by my father, Winfred Butler, to create a memorable brand. to ensure that customers would recall the amusing name and link it to reliable, quality service.

Following Wimpy's death in 2003, I chose to carry on the legacy of quality service that our customers relied on. As someone who has lived in Sarasota for three generations, I was immersed in the plumbing field from a young age and became the youngest master plumber in Florida at just 18. I received my nickname ""Bubba"" from my sister, Lori, who struggled to say brother. Lori, with her cheerful voice and vibrant personality, has served as our office manager for 38 years.

Our family legacy continues with my son, Mike, who is a licensed master plumber. As a family-owned business, we are committed to addressing your family's plumbing requirements.

Thank you for placing your trust in us!

Used these guys once for a plumbing issue and was so impressed that I had them put in a new AC system. Two guys came out, took down the old system, installed the new system and were gone that afternoon. They made a special point of double checking the installation and sealing the ductwork. their price was good; not the cheap, but in line with other Hvac companies. Based on my two experiences, I wouldn't think twice about bringing them back, and I heartily recommend them.

Great company! Believe the reviews. They came on time and checked for a possible water leak. It turned out I didn't have one, but they did show me how to check down the road if I thought I may have one. While he was here, Anthony took a look at our dishwasher. They did all that for a simple service fee.

It's always difficult for me to call any service company for my rental. Owning an AC business myself yet having to call a company that does plumbing and air was head scratching however I know the lingo so I looked for reviews to help guide me. Wimpys popped up on Yelp as a favorable plumbing company so I went with them. From my first phone call to the last one these guys are good. Took care if several issues and yes the price was an eye opener but not bad. It's getting challenging out there. All cost keep going up. If I get highly skilled knowledgeable techs who fix problems instead of creating them then that works for me. Thanks to Anthony for being a stand up technician. The renters were very satisfied and all the problems are now gone.

A young tech came out and pretended to be looking for the problem and making phone calls. After the hour was up he tells me it's a wire outside the unit and he has to charge 300 dollars because it took more than an hour. I won't recommend this company to anyone.

These guys are the best. Back in October we had to have our whole house replumbed including sewage due to old cast iron pipes. They explained things so we understood the issues and what needed to happen, they were punctual, professional, kept our house clean despite massive digging due to our concrete foundation, and left things in a great condition. They were the best quote we got and were by far the most trustworthy and reliable. We've called a few times since then for AC issues and a small toilet issue this week and they came out quickly and our warranty covered the issue. We highly recommend Wimpy's for all of your plumbing and AC services. Seriously don't call anyone else, you won't find a better company.

We've been having issues with water pressure at our home for months. I called Wimpy's and made an appt for the following day. Jesse came out, was very polite, wore shoes to protect our floors. We explained what had been happening. Within minutes, he located the problem, and corrected it. The price was very reasonable. We were very happy. Wimpy's will be our go-to plumber in the future!

Prompt response but 30% higher in price than everyone else. So we ended up picking someone else. They did nothing wrong, just sharing my experience.

I recently had two toilets that were leaking and constantly filling the tanks. This home sat empty for awhile before I purchased it. I called to get the plumber there to replace the """"guts"""" of the Kohler toilets. When he arrived, he said it would cost too much to replace the guts and I should just get new toilets. It started off as over $450 estimated to a Quote of $690 for a Gerber toilet. I spoke to a family member who came out and replaced the 'guts' of both toilets for less than $40 and repaired them in a little over an hour. So ... why the """"upsell"""" ? shame on the plumber for trying to rip me off. I want people to know that you need to be careful.

They know what they're doing but I think their prices are a little high well I guess you get what you pay for, but the job is done the right way and clean

The technician was very professional....however, he quoted a price of $1,000 to $2,500 to repair a leaking pipe but said the whole house needed to be re-plumbed at a cost of $10,500. I got a second plumber to check out the problem which he fixed for less than $150. I now believe Wimpy's plumbers are on commission and therefore try to up-sale their customers.
