"Needed emergency plumbing after our kitchen supply line blew a fitting at midnight. They talked me through shutting off the water on the phone and were here first thing in the morning to fix it properly."
"We had a clogged toilet that a plunger could not fix. The plumber used an auger and pulled out a toy car my toddler had flushed. Problem solved in ten minutes and he was really nice about it."
