Real feedback from homeowners who trusted Pipe Masters with their plumbing projects.
"Sewer line was backing up into the basement floor drain every time it rained. They scoped the line with a camera and found a collapsed section about thirty feet out. Replaced it with trenchless pipe bursting."
"Floor drain in the laundry room was backing up with sewage smell. They cleaned the line and found it was basically clogged with lint and soap residue from years of use. Smells normal again finally."
"Garbage disposal stopped working completely. The plumber tried to reset it first and when that did not work he replaced it with a more powerful unit. Took maybe thirty minutes start to finish."
