Karen Kramer on H & R Backhoe & Plumbing

We had a kitchen pipe leak suddenly after midnight last night. We had to turn the main water to our house off. Thankfully we saw the water rush out immediately so no damage, but essential that we fixed it asap!

Our plumber of many years wasn’t available today, so we called H&R Plumbing. We have been burned so badly by house stuff and are always so hesitant when we have to repair anything or to recommend companies/services.

I cannot say enough amazing things about Herschel with H&R!!! He answered immediately, showed up right away, was efficient, professional, kind, thorough, friendly, and did SUCH a great job!! He fixed the leak and was so clean. Not only did he fix the pipe, he noticed that our dishwasher didn’t have its own separate turn off valve, (we had renovations a few years ago and they didn’t put a standard separate dishwasher on/off valve), so he added one. I don’t think he even charged us for doing that. My mind is blown with what a great job he did and how quickly he got it done. Herschel is a rare find. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY!! Great job H&R plumbing! Thank you!!

I have never had such a great experience with a plumbing company! I called on a Sunday night and they promptly called back at 7:30 the next morning with the sweetest woman answering my questions. They were at my house in a couple of hours and fixed the plumbing problem perfectly in a little over an hour or so! I would highly highly recommend!! Their fees are also extremely fair!

I have used H&R Plumbing for many years as needed. We started with the grandfather of business, Mr. Roy Rich. Next was Hershel the son, and now Hershel Jr., the grandson. They have each done an excellent job. Timely, professional, & knowledgeable of each aspects of the business. I am sold on this business, when the need arises.

Brent Holman on H & R Backhoe & Plumbing

I had the pleasure of utilizing the services of H&R plumbing today after a recommendation from my long time plumber who is retired. It is a local family owned business and the pride that is taken is obvious. The plumber came right on time and had a partner (his young son who I am guessing is less than 10). He worked diligently and was able to identify and correct the issue the same day. It required him to go under my house multiple times which is not easy feat in itself and requires crawling the length of a ranch style home to address the problem area. Easy to talk to, professional, and a very reasonable price based on the time and effort. Companies like this are rare and should be supported. The technicians grandfather started the company and he worked with his dad learning the business since he was young. He is now passing that knowledge on to his son who was equally polite and professional. I highly recommend this company and will continue to use them with any plumbing issues that I have moving forward. I can not say enough good things about the experience.
