An often overlooked commodity in your home is the plumbing system. Your home plumbing makes it possible to do many necessary things each and every day. When the indoor plumbing does not work properly it can be extremely difficult to function. That is when it is important to find a reputable plumbing company that you can depend on for a prompt and quality plumbing service.

When you are in need of a plumbing job done right, you need to call the plumbing professionals you can always count on. We have fully trained technicians available for you to speak with at all times that are ready and willing to help.
Home plumbing is not usually something that most people are comfortable messing with. Even for a handy do it yourself homeowner, fixing plumbing problems can be a frustrating experience, but so can finding the right plumbing company. The right plumbing contractors can make things that much easier because as we all know, when the plumbing is not functioning properly, it can be a huge inconvenience.
If you have lived in your own house for very long, you have probably experienced some type of plumbing drain clog. It's inevitable that it will happen, but to help prevent drain clogs it is important to have your drains cleaned every so often. Otherwise, build up can occur and will eventually cause a blockage.
For a homeowner, nothing can be more nerve-racking than when the sewer plumbing does not work correctly. The entire home's waste water flows through one pipe that carries it away from the home and into a city sewer or septic system. Clogs, line breaks, and backups can occur unexpectedly but having a plumber experienced in sewer cleaning and replacing can be the key to getting things flowing again.
Better quality water is becoming more of a priority in homes. Advances in Home Filtration Systems and Water Softeners are making it easier to get on board and enjoy more pure and quality water for drinking and everyday uses. Most people agree that better water has many benefits. From better skin condition from showering to softer clothes and spotless dishes, you'll also enjoy the great qualities of filtered water.

It was New Years Eve and the worst tragedy happened. My wedding ring was accidentally flushed down the toilet. It was awful. It was valuable but the emotional value was priceless. It fell at the end of the flush but it was gone. We stopped all water use in the bathroom and called Friends Plumbing New Years Day. Jeremy was our New Years miracle. He removed the toilet and stuck a camera down the pipe. I burst into tears when I saw my ring. He struggled and fought with the pipe, the ring ,the vac and everything. About 2 hours later he finally pulled it out. Yes it was a miracle.

I’ve used Friends several times, specifically, Mario. Each visit to my home they have shown up on time, offered straight forward pricing, and completed the job with professionalism, courtesy, and competency. Thank you Mario for everything, would never go anywhere else!

Scam artists. I talked to dispatch and they told me one thing, and then the plumber who came out told me something completely different.
He didn't even come in the house and quoted me $900 an hour and wanted $200 on the spot just to talk to me.
We just had a pretty straightforward snake job from a stack on the roof to clear a clog.

We have used Friends for almost 20 years. We have a guest house built in 1884 and parts of the main house date back to 1948. While much is new some is very old and challenging. While this may not make us everyone's favorite customer, it is has made Friends our only plumbing service. Nothing has been so antiquated or old fashioned that they couldn't resolve our problems at very fair charges. Yes Dan knows us, but so do Ryan and Mario and problems are always resolved with clear explanations, suggestions for avoiding repeat incidents, and prompt service when needed.

Came on time and repaired a rusted old leaking faucet switching out a galvanized to copper connection that was leaking in the wall along with a few additional smaller plumbing jobs. Excellent service and explanation of what they were going to do, what they did and then completion. Every plumbing company should operate professionally like this.

I had a slow leak coming from a loose connection where the technician had installed a bidet. Not realizing this, at 1 a.m. I was woken up with a flood that had at least an inch of water in the bathroom but it had slowly spread to the adjoining bedroom and small hallway. After a few hours soaking up the water with towels and a wet/dry vacuum we realized that the water had seeped under my laminate floors. We called Friends Plumbing as soon as they opened. They quickly had a restoration company come within the hour to begin drying the area thoroughly. Unfortunately there was significant water damage

Dan did a great job installing a new kitchen faucet and soap dispenser, an electric water heater under our bathroom sinks, and fixing our shower knob. He was so nice, efficient, wonderful, knowledgeable
and clean with everything. Thank you!

Had a clogged toilet, after 4 different times and 3 days later that they showed up finally got a toilet to flush, still not right. After they left I noticed a bottle of pills missing, called the police and filed a report, called Friends to talk to a Manager, never heard back from them. They will not be coming back to my house. Not sure which of the 4 different people that come out took them, but someone did. Narcotics department has the case now. I should have known from all the different prices that I was given, and all the different people they sent out that they were going to get me one

My parents had extensive problems with their water softener which created multiple problems and issues throughout the house. Darius and David came through with top notch service, professionalism, and the knowledge to solve each and every problem. These guys take pride in their work and it shows. Darius and David took a potentially disastrous situation and left the house in better shape than ever. A+++ for them and for Friends Plumbing! - Howard R.

Friend's was dishonest about pricing and how they go about their business. The good news is they drove us to a different company that we will be using from now on. There are soooo many better options out there!

I just had some work done by their associate "Bobby." He was AMAZING! Friendly, honest, accurate work delivered in a timely manner. He walked me through each step before he started, and never left me wondering what was next. He even made a suggestion on how I might fix another problem. What a pleasure!

A few days after this review I wish I could give lower. I heard the plumbing staff saying (doors are very thin) they "could not locate the problem" and "couldnt get it to go down." This was around 3pm, they left the site around 4pm. Around 5pm there was raw sewage backing up into my kitchen and bathroom, after a few frantic calls to my leasing manager who also handled it poorly a plumber showed up about an hour later. Now I am at a loss for personal property.

Bobby at Friends did a wonderful job today fixing a leaky toilet and replacing two outside faucets. He was prompt, professional, answered all our questions, and worked skillfully. We will call Friends and ask for him whenever we need plumbing help. Thanks again.

We try to do our own home improvements whenever we can, but all the guys at Friend’s are so knowledgeable, nice and fast. They always do a great job and their prices are reasonable. Well worth it for a job that would have taken us an entire day, to have it done in an hour. Thanks to David Drake...great job!

We have used Friend's Plumbing for over 20 years and the plumbers have always been very competent, professional, and pleasant, too. Today Bobby came to replace a garbage disposal and he was efficient, and knowledgeable. He even captured a lizard that had gotten into the kitchen, and released it outside! (Thanks Bobby!)
I have found them to always be reliable, and they do an excellent job.

Toilet not flushing properly. Asked for Dave to respond...as he did a GREAT job last time. Unfortunately, Dave has moved back to Ohio.
Was given the dreaded 3 hour window 1-4 pm on Thursday. Called the office at 3:50...was told they were "running behind". Employee, Nickie called, per my request, and FINALLY showed up at 4:45....You cant even show up on time...within 3 hours?? Nickie checked the toilet and said for him to use the auger, it would be $139. If that did not fix the problem, he would have to snake the line, an add'l expense. While Nickie was augering with the 6 foot

Friend's Plumbing Review

At 2:00 p.m. on Tuesday afternoon, my exterminator drew my attention to my leaking water heater. I called my brother who deals in rental properties and asked if he could recommend a reliable and reputable plumbing company.

He replied "Call Tom at Friend's Plumbing and tell him I sent you."

By 9:30 a.m. on Wednesday morning, Tom confirmed by appointment for Thursday morning between 8:30 and 8:45.

Dan Ball arrived at 8:40 Thursday morning and immediately summed up the situation, gave me an amazing and affordable quote and within 3 hours of his arrival
