Testimonials

SATISFIED CUSTOMERS

Hacks Plumbing is so great to work with. Prompt on time arrival, excellent on site communication, clean up behind themselves. Every experience I have had with them has been amazing. Highly recommend! And I think they are very reasonably priced! Shout out to Diego who came and took care of our gas line issue!!!

Lorraine Nellis

Our Plumber was Sean and he is amazing. He came in late in the evening when the sink was backed up and worked way beyond what would be considered normal quitting time to get everything cleared up. He came back the next day fixed my shower, the line going to my refrigerator for water, and cleared all of my bathroom drains. I still have a little more plumbing work to do and you can bet I’ll be calling Hack’s and asking for Sean. I highly recommend this company.
