Word of mouth, in writing
Straight from verified customer reviews on completed Swamp City jobs.
Nate was a life and wallet saver! He cleared an entire day to travel out-of-area to repair my leaking hot water line. He busted through ten feet of concrete slab, isolated the leaks to avoid any damage downstream, replaced everything and re-concreted my slab for half the cost my home warranty's plumber was going to charge. Turned a highly stressful situation into a fantastic experience. 10 Stars!
I had some sort of a pipe burst in my yard and I called SwampCity and I'm so glad I did. Mr. Fairrow showed up within 2 hours and had it repaired within 4 hours. I was expecting a big old crater in my yard but when they were done I could hardly tell they were ever there. The price was very reasonable. I hope I don't need you again but if I do, I know who I'll be calling.
Nate at Swampcity Plumbing is my go to plumber. I know I can trust him to make the best decision for my plumbing needs and not hose me with lies to make more money. He is trustworthy and knows plumbing better than most. I refer him to everyone I know when they need an honest, excellent plumber.
Excellence in plumbing and price. The owner is very personable and competent as a plumber. He will tell you if something is wrong and won't try to sell anything that is not needed. Will always use Swampcity Plumbing.
Nate came to the house with an emergency sewer backup. He was diligent, quick to arrive and took the time to explain it to me. I will be using this company from now on. Thank you, Nate!
First time using Swamp City Plumbing and we were very pleased. Nate was able to come out the same day we called, fixed a leaking pipe within about an hour and for a very reasonable price. We will definitely use Swamp City again.
