If I’d have known about The Scottish Plumber four years ago, I probably would not have had to replace this faucet so soon. He fixed the problems that the other plumber created and left my place spotless!

It went very well. Tom Tolari was our tech. He reviewed all we needed to have done and took care of any issues in less than an hour. Clean sewer line and clean tub drain. Thank you for Tom and his professionalism.

Guys are amazing! Got to my home on time and got to the root of the problem in minutes. Was very professional and informative, I was happy with my results, even gave me tips on how to maintain my shower drain. Was able to negotiate a price and the guy they sent was very understanding! Would definitely recommend these guys!! They followed all covid safety regulations! Was very impressed.

I have been using The Scottish Plumber for many years. I made an appointment for my parent’s house as their basement flooded and the sewer water was very high. Frankie came out and explained things very clearly. He was the best. With all the rain we had, he first checked the city sewer water level and it was flowing very good or not backed up. We have a sewer clean out in the front yard so he rodded the sewer lines from there and pulled out a lot of tree roots. Our tenants upstairs may be flushing wipes as this was noticeable as well. Once these were cleared out the basement water drained out quickly. The service and communication was the best throughout. They also arrived on time even though they had a truck breakdown.

Great service and work! We called for a quote to have our pipes routed out. We suspected that there was a root in our drain. Scottish came out and set up shop very quickly, running the machine to find the root. All in all he got it done in less than an hour. Tom gave us his card which offered $25 discount off of the next visit. They did not overcharge us for this service. We are very happy with Scottish.

I looked on line for a plumber who could come out as soon as possible to help stop the flooding of my basement. Tom Tolari came within 40 minutes after his assignment for the day. He was able to open the outside trap and rod out the drain line. The water immediately started to drain. He was pleasant and professional leaving the front yard looking clean. Thank you Tom Tolari! Jessica took my call and she was very sweet to keep me calm. She even called me to let me know that the service guy was on his way. Thank you Jessica for your kindness.

PVC pipe was put in and work was completed (the guys who did the drywall did a mediocre job in the first floor bathroom). After 5 months we began hearing water dripping inside the wall when the 2nd floor hall bathroom sink and tub faucet are used. I showed pics of some of the work done to another plumber who pointed out that either incorrect joint compound was used, or no joint compound was used. He also pointed out that one of the pipe joints was put in upside down. To say I'm scared that we'll begin to see water damage due to this job being poorly done (after paying over $28,000) is a gross understatement. SAVE YOUR MONEY AND YOUR SANITY AND STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY!!

Scottish Plumber provided excellent service. Matt H. was awesome. Not only did he fix my issue, he provided information that will help me maintain my plumbing. I had three previous estimates that were twice as much as Scott Plumber. Scottish Plumber will be my go-to plumber from now on.
