What homeowners say after the truck pulls out.
"Got a quote elsewhere for a full repipe at five figures. Second opinion here found two bad sections and a pressure regulator. Cost me a fraction of the first number."
"Called about a leak under the kitchen sink and it turned out to be the dishwasher hose. They told me that, tightened it, and did not charge me for a plumbing repair I did not need."
