## The honest read

Gary Franco's Plumbing holds a 3.5-star Google rating from 21 ratings. A recent customer said they came out on Memorial Day weekend, quickly diagnosed the issue and replaced a leaking toilet.

A recent customer with a toilet that would not flush said Gary showed up on time and was personable, and said he would schedule time to put a camera down the line. That customer said nobody called back, twice, and that they got someone else. A recent customer said a call about their concern was met with rudeness and condescension.

A 2026 customer whose heat went out on a Friday night said Gary came out that night, diagnosed the issue and gave guidance on keeping the pipes from freezing overnight. That 2026 customer said that after an update the next morning that the needed part had been found, a team arrived within an hour and repaired the system. A 2025 customer getting quotes on a new hot water heater said he was able to come out the following day. A 2024 customer said they were the only local plumber available to respond to a raining kitchen. A 2023 customer said Gary came out and a pipe in the basement was replaced and repaired in 30 min. A 2023 customer said a minor kitchen emergency got same day service and was diagnosed and repaired within a couple hours.

A 2026 customer said they were overcharged for warranty work, paid for something that was supposed to be free under the warranty, and that the old parts from the defective unit were reused in the new unit. A 2025 customer said the company refused to give a quote or contact them to discuss a plumbing job. A 2022 customer said the company canceled a project it had quoted and scheduled because it had a bigger commercial contract. A 2022 customer described the office manager and the owner as rude and condescending.

**Strengths:**
- Holiday weekend repair — a recent customer had a leaking toilet replaced
- Night heating call — a 2026 customer said Gary came out that night
- A basement pipe — a 2023 customer said it was repaired in 30 min

**Concerns:**
- Missed callbacks — a recent customer never heard back about a camera inspection
- Warranty billing — a 2026 customer said they paid for a warranty replacement
- A canceled project — a 2022 customer said it was dropped for a commercial contract
- Phone manner — a recent customer said a call met rudeness and condescension
