Honest and reasonably priced team. Had to come out twice due to difficult clogged toilet, and upheld their commitment to customer satisfaction. No more than an hour total, problem solved. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience, would use again and recommend without hesitation. The price was fair and they chose not to upcharge when they certainly could have. Clear communication, on time, friendly; the whole time I felt like they were looking out for my best interest over their own. I couldn't have asked for a better experience.

I cannot say enough good things about Hanahan Plumbing! We were very concerned when a pipe burst outside of our house. They were quick to respond, gave us a fair estimate and got to work that same day. Everything was repaired and back to normal in a few hours. I felt like the price was very fair and they were very easy to work with. I would definitely recommend them to anyone searching for a plumber!
