I called Tim late on a Friday and he came out on the next Monday. He offered suggestions to possibly get the Sump Pump to start up so to avoid needing to come out and replace it. Since none of these suggestions worked he came out and replaced the Sump Pump. at the time he had promised. He is extremely knowledgeable. I have used him many times in the past not only for work in my house but also my mother in law and mothers home too as well as friends. I would highly recommend him to others and will continue to use his services in the future.

Tim replaced 2 shower faucets and repaired 2 outdoor water spigots. His communication was excellent, from scheduling to explaining the work needed to be done. He was prompt and his prices were fair and reasonable. He won't try to up sell you on extra work that doesn't need to be done.

We have hired Know Howe in the past when we purchased our home 7 years ago. The home has needed updating here and there. Whatever Tim has done, it was done right the first time. Today he was hired for other repairs, inside and outside. Again, he is always on time, very knowledgeable in his field and professional. His charges are on target and fair. If you want it done right, you gotta' "Know Howe"!!!

Had a clogged drain that was connected to our furnace that needed to be rodded out. It was not in the best location to access but Tim was able to successfully complete the job. Great service and follow through!

Tim replaced an aging sump pump with a backup battery setup. He was one of 3 companies who gave me estimates. I went with him because he explained everything thoroughly and his estimate was reasonable. I found him knowledgeable about the task and detail oriented. It was a pleasure working with him and I plan to use his firm for any of my future plumbing needs!

Tim Howe and his assistant removed and replaced a sump pump from my crawl space. The new pump has been there for about a month now and is working fine. They did a great job and even removed three or four old sump pumps that others left behind. Tim was friendly, knowledgeable, and also took the time to answer all of my questions about the job. I am very satisfied with the result.

I have been working with Tim for several years now, with the most recent repair being a broken toilet flush. He is incredibly responsive, punctual, knowledgeable and fair. He's handled everything in our home from toilets to bathroom fixtures to sump pump to disposal. Really good and honest guy. Highly recommend!

Know Howe was professional, timely, courteous, and efficient. They came out, had all the tools needed, and assessed the situation and immediate did the installation. They were economical and worked with us to provide the best cost for the services needed. I would highly recommend them to all friends and family.

This is our third experience with Tim from Know-Howe and we would highly recommend Know-Howe for any plumbing issues (all of our plumbing issues were different, and all were solved to our satisfaction). Tim is on-time, polite and professional and he knows what he is doing. His prices are very fair for the quality of work that is done.
Response from Know-Howe Home Services

They called very soon after we made contact and came out immediately the next morning. They gave us a ballpark price over the phone, which nobody else would do! And the price was what they quoted us.
