"Emergency call at 2 AM when a pipe burst in the basement during a freeze. They shut off the water, thawed the line, and replaced the split section. Saved us from serious water damage."
"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 replaced our 20-year-old tank water heater with a tankless unit. Installation took most of the day because of the gas line rework, but the result is endless hot water and lower bills."
