"They repiped our entire second floor from old polybutylene to PEX. The work was clean, they patched the drywall access points, and the inspector had zero issues. Worth every penny for the peace of mind."
"We had a frozen pipe burst in the crawl space during the cold snap. They replaced the damaged section and insulated the exposed pipes so it would not happen again. Smart, not just reactive."
"Needed a gas leak inspection after we kept smelling something faint near the stove. They used an electronic sniffer and found a tiny leak at the flex connector. Fixed it on the spot for a very reasonable price."
