We needed someone to come out for an emergency plumbing repair on New Year's Day. They were timely, courteous, fixed the issue, cleaned up before they left, and were careful to ensure they followed COVID safety guidelines. So thankful they were able to come out!

Greg, with the assistance of son Greg and Fess, did an excellent job installing new shower and tub units in two of our bathrooms. We could not be more pleased with the results! We commend them on their professionalism, expertise, and attention to detail. They were respectful of our home, accommodating, responsive, and punctual. Greg had done a plumbing job for us previously with which we were equally pleased.

This has been an absolutely horrible experience using Edward Hughes & Sons. I originally had a plumber from their company come out and evaluate my leaking shower and what is needed to fix it. They even ordered a part. Then trying to schedule the follow up appointment to actually come out and fix the issue was a complete nightmare. They actually stood me up 6 times and never showed up! Good luck if you use these guys.

Nice people who do their best considering their length of time in the business. Response in days, service and quotes in days because much if not all their work is outsource to others.
