Real feedback from real plumbing calls.
"Burst pipe in the crawlspace in January. He had the main off and the section cut out before I finished explaining. Pressure tested it in front of me before he closed it up."
"Well pump quit on a holiday weekend. He got the pressure switch replaced same day and told me the tank had maybe a year left rather than selling me one right then. Called him back for the tank in the spring."
"Water heater let go on a Sunday morning and flooded half the basement. Had someone here inside two hours, new tank in by afternoon, and he hauled the old one off. Price was what he said on the phone."
