Honest reviews from homeowners who chose Phoenician Plumbing for their plumbing needs.
"Shower had been dripping for ages. They replaced the cartridge in the valve in about 45 minutes and it has been completely dry ever since. Friendly, fast, and reasonably priced."
"Called for what I thought was a simple leak detection and they found two separate issues — one behind the wall and one under the slab. Fixed both in the same visit. Professional and thorough throughout."
"They did a great job on short notice. The plumber came out even earlier than expected and spent the entire day fixing the original problems, laying new pipes, and then fixing new leaks when the water was turned on. I wish more companies had this work ethic and attention to detail."
