“McManus Plumbing! Martin is a really nice guy and did a great job on our bathroom reno (more involved than what you're looking for). His quote was much more reasonable than others we got and he was a pleasure to work with.”
Called James to help us fix our boiler that wasnt coming on during the winter. James was great communicating with me when he would be there and had it fixed up in about 15mins. Great service and very professional! Id highly recommend anyone to call him if their having plumbing and heating issues.
