"Replaced an old water heater that was rusting out from the bottom. The new one is more efficient and they even upgraded the expansion tank and earthquake straps. Everything up to current code now."
"Had the drains cleaned in our older home. The plumber used a hydro jetter on the main line and a snake on the smaller branch lines. Water flows perfectly now. Should have done this years ago."
"Pipe Masters was upfront about pricing from the start. No surprise charges after the work was done. They fixed a pinhole leak in a copper line and replaced a section that was showing green corrosion."
