Had an issue with my plumbing several weeks after the repair. They came out today and fixed it gratis. Very responsive and professional.

It's so hard to find a good, reliable plumber who actually comes out to fix something when they say they are, but this company is definitely trustworthy and keeps their word!!! I had a part that had to be replaced with the garbage disposal and they were able to come out quickly and handle it!
ALSO they did a good job of taking precautions like wearing a mask which was reassuring.

Since we moved into our house, Olde Towne has performed a pre-purchase sewer line inspection, three small projects and also made a troubleshooting trip for a low water pressure problem. Their plumbers are experts at their work, friendly people and punctual. Do be aware, their office keeps 'regular' business hours, so not the first call for an after-hours or weekend emergency. But - if you have time to book an appointment, Olde Towne should be at the top of your list.

It's not often that we need to call a plumber, but the two times we have. We have called Olde Towne Plumbing. In our last call to Olde Towne, Andrew was the gentleman that came out. He did a great job fixing a leaking toilet tank that had rusted bolts that needed to be cut out. This was something I would not have been able to do myself. Thanks Olde Towne!

I called two competitors that have been very good in the past but neither was very responsive. I waited over an hour for a callback from one (one week wait for service) and the other left me on hold forever. I then called Olde Towne and got Jeannie on the phone immediately and was astounded when she offered me a service appointment less than 24 hours later. My appointment was for 10:00-12:00 AM the next morning and the technician was there promptly at 10:00, another surprise. He did a very good job and was pleasant and responsive to my concerns. Overall it was a great experience.

From researching on their site to making the appointment to the plumber's call, it has been an excellent experience. All we needed was a drip fixed in the bathroom sink that another company had failed to correct after two calls (and they had installed it!)
So we gave Olde Towne a try. It was easy to call and schedule an appointment with the pleasant woman I talked to on the phone. Their website has a way you can contact them, too. The plumber called ahead, he was right at the beginning of the 3-hour window we had been given, he found our house with GPS, and parked carefully. He had the
