Liberty Village Plumbing

5.0(275)✓ Google-verifiedPublishes prices

Liberty Village Plumbing wins repeat business through dependable same-day turnarounds, clear pricing, and technicians who explain work before starting. Named staff like Donny and Mike handle bathroom fixtures, faucets, and leak diagnosis with care, arriving prepared because customers upload photos upfront. Most recognize honesty: the team replaced a single part instead of the whole assembly. The core friction point is their online-only booking system, though reviewers note email replies typically come within hours. One unaddressed request stands out against the pattern. For those comfortable with email or online forms, responsive scheduling and transparent invoices earn strong loyalty from condo owners and home buyers alike.

Levstein & Stern Plumbing Ltd

4.9(52)✓ Google-verified

Levstein & Stern delivers quick, tidy work backed by staff who explain jobs clearly and respect homes. Andrew and Sean are named repeatedly for professionalism and pleasant demeanor. One long-term customer left over a $15 putty charge and perceived dismissiveness from ownership, though most reviewers praise fair pricing and upfront estimates before additional work.
