"Dan was very easy to talk to. He was very patient with our animals when they needed to go out. Very professional and he made sure he smoothed out the track ruts from the equipment in the yard. Highly recommend him to friends and family."

"Provider was prompt, professional and friendly. Arrived at the agreed upon time for a free estimate and performed work same-day after we agreed to the price. He stuck to the price despite taking longer than expected and more work than usual due to worn-rusted pipes in my home. Cleaned-up after himself and left no sign that work was done other than our new, working toilets. We are very pleased and reccomend McDonagh & Sons Plumbing & Sewer Inc.
