Our reputation is built on results. Here is what our customers have to say.
"Had a new gas line run from the meter to our kitchen for a gas range conversion. Everything was done to code, they scheduled the city inspection, and we passed first time. Very straightforward process."
"Had Pipe Masters install a backflow preventer after our city sent a compliance notice. They handled the install and the testing certification in one visit. Passed inspection on the first try."
"Needed a sewer cleanout installed because we had no access point for maintenance. They dug the spot, tied into the existing line, and now we can get the sewer scoped or cleaned without any hassle."
