Honest reviews from homeowners who chose Magnet Plumbing for their plumbing needs.
"Saul and his team showed up on time and worked quickly to resolve our issue. They were able to quickly replace the old water heater with a new unit. They left the area cleaner than it was originally. We finally have hot water again! Pricing was fair, service was exceptional."
"Smelled gas in the basement late at night and called the emergency line. A plumber was dispatched within the hour, located the leak at a corroded fitting on the water heater gas line, and repaired it on the spot. They even came back the next day to re-verify with the gas detector. Truly appreciated the care taken."
"Once again Magnet Plumbing came to save the day. I manage a building of 49 units and we had a gas leak somewhere. The city shut the gas for the whole building. They showed up right away and got to work. They found the problem, fixed it, and were able to turn the gas back on so people could have dinner. Saul is amazing — right on time, very professional."
