1776 Plumbing

5.0(53)✓ Google-verified

All 53 Google reviews award five stars. Callers consistently report same-day or quick appointments, courteous technicians who explain problems and solutions upfront, and work completed on schedule. Dan and his team (including Jared) handle emergency repairs, water heater installs, and fixture work with equal professionalism, often finishing complex jobs in a single visit and cleaning up afterward. Customers praise fair pricing relative to the scope of work. Several mention multi-year relationships or plans to hire 1776 again for maintenance. One reviewer noted a technician showed them how to prevent future issues rather than just patching the immediate problem.
