I was VERY impressed with the knowledge, skill and efficiency of Edward King and Josh Clement. They quickly diagnosed the problem and rapidly fixed it. I will use them again, and would recommend Dwyer Plumbing to anyone. Thank you.

Had a semi-emergency with a toilet. Tried to replace a fill valve myself but could not even turn the water off to the toilet. Had to shut water off in the house. Called Dwyer. Able to come & fix everything within 2-3 hrs. Guillermo was fantastic. He saved the day for me!

They charged us over $1,000 for some diagnosis work (without warning us about an estimate first) and then did not come the day promised for the actual repair work. I was stunned.

The job was to fix our toilet that had become quite slow to refill itself. It was easy to schedule on line. (It wasn't an emergency.) The repair man was prompt and clear. The repair was pricey but a quality job with replacement of the primary internal elements. The toilet has been working fine since he left.

I have used Dwyer before and I am always pleased with their services. The technicians are prompt, knowledgeable, and personable. They arrive on-time, as promised. This time with my ac estimate and repair was no different. The first technician Matt came for the estimate. He showed me how to set the ac dampers to cool the top floor, which was too warm for sleeping. He even drew a diagram for me. Danny was great in getting my repairs completed as promised. He cleaned up the work area very well. My only complaint about this service is that no one told me the new condenser in the yard would be twice

Good guys, prompt and efficient and very understanding and willing to work with me about accessing everything. Very patient - was more than willing to shut the loud vacuum down when I got an important call, could not have been friendlier. Took their time at each vent and obviously cared about the work, and they didn't leave a mess behind (even helped put things back I had moved to help.)
As to the overall effect of the duct cleaning, time will tell, but I can find no fault with the men doing the work - good people.
I also looked into their air scrubber / UV light disinfectant installation

From the moment I called to ask for a tech, to the installation And completion every member of the Dwyer Team was professional and caring! They were able to get a tech out to me in less than 3 hours, and did within the next business day were installing our brand new HVAC system! They were so kind and professional and even gave our dogs some petting, and were so patient while I handled the two kids, and reviewed quotes with my husband ! We have used them multiple times in the past and will continue to use them! They’re always there with a positive attitude when you need them!

Hired Dwyer to replace our old heat pump, and they did a good job! Competitive price for good Trane equipment (we did some shopping around, and the manager that came to do the quote was really helpful and friendly and answered many of our first-time homeowner questions). Installation was quick and they kept our space very clean, but something was installed incorrectly because the cooling function did not work a few days later, so we had to have someone come out to diagnose the issue and order the part, and someone else come out to do the repair. It's been working beautifully in the hot weather

Do not ever use this company. They are unscrupulous and deceptive. I used them for 4 or 5 years; last fall i called them to caulk the area around my bathroom countertop. A few months later, I found that the caulking was cracking and splitting and had air holes in it. I called and they sent someone else. He told me that the previous person had not used waterproof caulking. He re-caulked it. I was stunned to see later that i had been charged for the re-caulking. I called Dwyer to complain and was told someone in the business department would get back to me. Needless to say, that didn't happen

We've used Dwyer 3 times so far, and every interaction has been awesome. Nobody likes to have to call in a plumber, but they've become our go-to business for our plumbing needs. We've interacted with Najib and Eddie who serviced our home on all 3 occasions - both guys are awesome.

Scheduling has always been a piece of cake. Their scheduler will call and update you to let you know if there is a change in plans. The technician will call you in advance to notify you of their arrival. With COVID, they're respectful of social distancing and mask-wearing.

They've always

My home heating system stopped working so I called Dwyer becauseI had such a good experience with their repair of my air conditioning system a couple of years ago. The technician, Tom Goldsmith, came out to my house promptly. Tom was very knowledgeable and experienced (40 years!) and he was a very nice, personable guy. He fixed my system in short order and answered all of my questions about the system, the part that failed, and how the system worked. In short, he did a great job.

Tom earns 5 stars and so does Dwyer for employing such smart, technically competent, and experienced technicians

So happy with Dwyer Plumbing. We are on a twice-a-year inspection contract and we just had our spring check-up today. In spite of the lock-downs and isolation, our guy came right out on the early side of the "window," which is nice. (Also got a call when he was on his way saying he would arrive in 10 minutes. Seems like a small thing but we home owners really appreciate that.) We feel they are honest and they are certainly reliable. We have not regretted changing to Dwyer years ago. Thank you, Dwyer!

We've been customers for 10+ years and love these guys! Got our heat pump -- a water-source heat pump which is unusual for a condominium -- 8+ years ago and have had it serviced by them ever since. Recently got new toilets: great choice, good price, perfect installation by Sylvester and Calvin.

Over the last few years we've seen more Dwyer vans and fewer competitors' vans in our complex as neighbors have switched to Dwyer.

Dwyer charged my elderly mom $3,200 for a new 50 gallon hot water heater, when I called them, they said she agreed to it! No complications, in and out, a routine service call, outrageous! Price gauging! I'm going to contact the office on aging, then get legal assistance but I sure hope people wake up! I suggest Angieslist! If you want to throw money out the window call them!


Their reply to our review just a bunch of excuses, Dwyer takes advantage of elderly people!

Wish I'd read the Yelp reviews instead of other sites before calling this service. Makes me wonder about those other review sites. Totally agree about the outrageous pricing and you're put in a tough situation once they are in your house, you took the day off from work, you need the repair, and have no time to weigh options. Their pricing model is a flat fee per service plus a $65 service fee. They charged me nearly $200 for a service that took at most 15 minutes and resulted in no appreciable improvement -- snaking my shower drain. Do not recommend -- definitely will not be using again

Absolutely terrible. Part was supposed to take 3-5 days to arrive; after 8 days of waiting I contacted them, and they said our part had made it and they would install the following day. Come the following day I get a phone call, telling us that they could not fix our unit today because they had another clients part and not ours. THEY FORGOT TO ORDER OUR PART. EIGHT DAYS WAS NOT ENOUGH TO REMEMBER THAT THEY DIDNT ORDER IT, AND THEY HAD THE GUTS TO TELL US THAT WE COULD PLACE A RUSH ORDER NOW FOR 170 EXTRA BUCKS. UN-FREAKING-BELIEVABLE!!! So I have to pay extra for your mistake and poor customer

I used them for a rental property and they promised to call me before any work is done but guess what no call?!?!? After the work is done they call for payment and it's $500. Where is the heads up!!!! I'm really disappointed because I asked them to call before any work was done multiple times. For $500 I could have installed a new toilet. Come on your technicians need some common sense.

Our house was on the market and the prospective buyers wanted to have a plumber come to inspect the sewer pipe. They sent in Kesterson who came in with a black and white camera with terrible resolution. The plumber kept saying how "bad" the pipe was as he was feeding the camera down. The buyers wanted us to replace the entire sewer line.

Instead we called Dwyer for a second opinion. They came with state of the art equipment...a color camera with high resolution as well as an experienced technician. Our pipe was in fact in great condition. They had us over a barrel and could have

Poor communication practices and will charge you for work without telling you the cost upfront.

We had Dwyer Plumbing come out because we had water coming through our recessed lighting in the kitchen from the bathroom upstairs.

We were told it would be a $69 service fee when I explained the issue on the phone (they knew it had to be a leak issue, I mean water was coming from my ceiling from the bathroom into the kitchen). The 2 techs came out and went straight to the bathroom and started looking for the leak. When after 10 minutes they identified that it was a caulking issue with the shower

We called Dwyer to address 2 leaking shower faucets and a slow flowing sink. They were there in a timely manner. They replaced 2 flat washers and replaced a sink aerator - a $5 part. The plumber was there about 45 minutes and was very competent. We received a bill for almost $500! He wasn't THAT competent!

We called the company and spoke to the owner who said this is what everyone charges for this fix. He would not reduce the fee to a normal reasonable charge. He has lost our family's business and our commercial business. This was the most expensive appointment he has had.

Sadly, Dwyer

I called Dwyer because there was water coming in the basement window of a rental property I own. It was an emergency call, and one of their guys (Xavi( went out that night and left a pump that he said would fix the problem until he could do a more permanent fix. Unfortunately, Xavi didn't test it. An hour after Xavi left, the tenant tried to make it work and it was inoperative. I called Xavi, and Xavi confirmed that he had never tested the pump he left. Xavi came back out the next day and installed a permanent fix.

I called Dwyer because they were well rated by neighbors in my condo community.

Despite it being a hot day in July, Dwyer could accommodate me with a same day appointment. I called at 10; they said they would be there between 10 and 2; and they showed up around noon (with a 20 minute heads up phone call to tell me they were on the way). That alone is good service for busy people.

The service technician Cosmo was polite and competent. He added refrigerant and seems to have fixed the problem! Thank you Cosmo.

It was $89 for a diagnostic call plus $70 per pound for the refrigerant. The total

I have a love/hate relationship with Dwyer, and I've used them for both AC and plumbing.

First, the positives. Dwyer's employees have always been responsive, friendly, and kind. Scheduling an appointment has always been a breeze, and they've always been able to get to my house either on the same-day or the next-day. Their work has always been excellent, as far as I can tell.

Second, the--very big--negative. Their plumbing prices are outrageous. I don't know if they use solid gold for things like valves, but they might as well for the price they charge. They came to

I recently used Dwyer Plumbing to service a failed AC system. They were responsive and did the job, but when it came to the bill I couldn't get a straight answer on how they came up with the number. First it was hourly, then a flat fee of $1500 (to replace the circuit board and blower motor -- under warranty), then finally $1100. Even after talking to the service manager twice and the owner once, I couldn't get an answer about hourly rates (if the bill was based on per-hour charges) or average repair times (if the bill was based on fee-per-serivce), and I was told by both the service
