Quick response to replace a tankless water heater that went completely out and had to be replaced. The employees of Lees Plumbing were very professional. The only downside was the cost for replacement which ended up costing 5400.00

"I ordered a water softener unit online and was looking for someone to do the install. When put into contact with United Water I immediately knew they were the right guys for the job. Their professional knowledge made it a breeze to perform the install on a unit they didn't deliver and the quality of work was superb. Everything from electrical to plumbing was outstanding. Had I known of their work prior to ordering my soft water unit I would have purchased it directly from them because their unit was sized the same and would have cost me the same. What I lost was the warranty to work on the unit which I'm crossing my fingers I don't run into. Overall extremely pleased and would recommend."
