Kevin and his helper did a fine job for my sister and installed a beautiful double sink. He invited me and my sister to basement to see how the washer will disperse into the pipe and the drain hole without flooding the basement. The demo went very well and my sister Annie was very pleased and happy with the work they completed to her satisfaction today. Thank you for your inquiry.

I can't praise the service and quality of Jon's work enough! He clearly explained everything that needed to be done along the way as he completed his inspections and meticulously replaced my hot water heater and leaking shower drain. I will not hesitate to call on him again when I have my whole-house water filter's location corrected to the front of the water line prior to the water softener and iron filter equipment, as he suggested. Thanks so much, Jon, for all your hard work. It truly IS appreciated.

Tamara Traut

Jon did a very thorough job of explaining any plumbing issues he saw during our annual inspection. He also quickly did a toilet repair after the inspection. Jon was friendly, and it was obvious that he is a very knowledgeable and experienced plumber.

David Campanale

Called for an emergency appointment once our main drain backed up in our basement laundry room again. Jen was able to schedule a tech the same day. Matthew (Matt) was prompt and timely after communicating his drive time.
I knew I needed the pipes jetted from past situations.

I have to give Matt a huge shout-out cause he worked his butt off on the main drain for nearly three hours. He made multiple jet and camera passes to clear the clogged line and our water flows freely now.

He was very knowledgeable and offered us great advice. He was respectful and cleaned up well.

Thanks Matt for a job well done!

Joy Nixon

Amazingly quick service for a failed sump pump. They came the next day. Kevin was very informative and very nice. I’d recommend Plumbing Excellence for their superior, friendly service!

Salimah Muhammad

I just want to thank Ryan for doing an amazing job putting in the new water heater for our home. The old one was 100 years old lol, so the landlord sent your company out and I'm so glad they did!! Excellent customer service and extreme professionalism were displayed. Thank you again and super big thank you to Ryan!

Mike Dunasky

Everything was top notch except for the fact the technician didn’t reinstall our watering hose. But he was extremely professional and very knowledgeable about our water system and did an outstanding service. We have used this company on several occasions and every time we have been very impressed

Jonathan was extremely knowledgeable, provided excellent communication throughout the process, and was an absolute pleasure to work with. He took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure the job was done right. Highly recommend!!

Michelle O'Connor

A great experience with Buddy's Plumbing Excellence this week. Called for services and was put on the schedule right away. As promised, the tech called on his way to the house. Truly appreciate the time Jonathan took to explain everything and do a thorough evaluation of the situation and point out some items that may need addressed in the future. The transparent pricing was very helpful.

Kevin Cheeseman

Jonathan came out for some estimates, including bad water pressure. He replaced my PRV same-day and doubled the pressure. I really appreciate the time he took to explain everything to me and point out some issues that may need to be addressed in the future. Love their transparent pricing. Highly recommended!

Plumbing at the Speed of NOW in Akron, Ohio

Are you worried about your pipes after the big freeze? Ready to find out what’s hiking your water bill? Our Akron plumbers are standing by.

Common Signs You Need to Call a Plumber

Many plumbing signs are obvious. When your hot showers become lukewarm, the water heater is the obvious suspect. Drains that don’t drain need attention, and a dripping faucet is a clear problem.

However, not all symptoms are so easy to spot, and it’s easy to dismiss them as a regular inconvenience or an unrelated concern. Keep an eye on your water pressure. If it isn’t as strong as it used to be, there are likely hidden problems in your pipes. A rising water bill may also be a red flag. Musty smells in your home, depressions in your lawn, and mushrooms around your property may signal leaks, breaks, and other plumbing concerns.

The Importance of Rapid Plumbing Repairs

Plumbing at the speed of NOW is for more than mere convenience. The longer a plumbing issue goes unaddressed, the greater damage it can cause to your home and health. A quick response is essential to doing the job right. Our team helps mitigate the risk of any plumbing problem before it becomes a bigger issue.

Property Damage

Faulty or damaged plumbing may lead to erosion, mold, and pest infestations. Given time, even a minor leak in a water or sewer line can attract tree roots that may further damage your property’s plumbing and infrastructure. Damp flooring, walls, and supports often rot, and the damage can be irreversible if left unfixed.

Health Risks

Even a minor leak can create hazards in your home. A small drip has dangerous potential. Mold and mildew require damp environments to thrive, and fungi can spread quickly in utility spaces between walls or under floors. Cockroaches are also drawn by moist dirt and softened infrastructure.
