Chris was fantastic - everything you'd expect from a plumber who is highly professional. He confirmed the appointment, called when he was 30 minutes out, arrived on time, completely the repair job honestly and expediently... (He even put on shoe covers.) Afterwards, Chris leaned up his workspace so well that I would never have known he was there. Definitely recommend! read more

I cannot say enough good things about Friend's. They have come to our plumbing needs and rescue several times over the years. Recently this past week having found a leak in house which turned out to be major! Fortunately they had a solution which would save us from further and future problems. Friends successfully repiped our plumbing from the floor up through the attack. The work was done very efficiently and effectively. I is so nice to have honest quality people to perform such important work. Thank you guys!! read more

Thank you Friends Plumbing! Great service from Anthony and Jared. They showed up to appts on time. Were friendly and professional and cleaned up completely after they finished. They presented options and worked with me and my budget. Very happy with the service this team provided would definitely use them again! read more

They charged $453 for less than an hour's service to plunge a toilet and clear a sink. They take advantage of elderly people. AVOID THIS COMPANY. read more

Glendon and Allen are the nicest plumbers I have ever met! Professional and just nice guys. I would use Friends plumbing again just based on these two guys. read more

I recently bought a new dishwasher and paid Lowe's to come to install. Unfortunately, they couldn't install because the shut off valve was frozen and told me to contact a plumber. He then gave me friend's plumbing phone number. I called you to come out to change the shut-off valve(s). In the meantime, my kitchen sink kind of had an issue with slow draining. It obviously had a clog. So in order to install the new dishwasher, the drain obviously had to be unclogged before installing the new dishwasher. Jay & Jarrod came out, they replaced the valves, unclogged the blockage but when it was time to install the new dishwasher, that's where the problem started. They did not even open the manual to read the instructions and just shoved it in at a slant instead of leveling it & adjusting it and DID NOT even bolt it in on the sides. So there was a HUGE gap on the sides and was sticking out. The dishwasher is the same size as my old one. Jay suggested that I can buy a side guard trim to fill in the gap which I had trouble finding online and in local hardware store. Then he said the plug/outlet was in the way. I was very skeptical as this didn't sound right to me, so I ended up calling someone else to come and paid an extra $300+ for them to install the same new dishwasher and they installed it CORRECTLY in less than 15 min and now there is no gap, no need to buy anything extra as Jay suggested. Therefore, I was out a lot of money for a simple project which should've been done right the first time around. I figured, plumbers are supposed to be knowledgeable on installing a simple dishwasher!! Don't get me wrong, your plumbers were "friendly and knowledgeable on plumbing" but NOT at all knowledgable on installing appliances! read more

beware of hiring this company! they are scam artists through and through. their sales team tried to strong arm us into services we didn't need. and then took retaliatory actions when we denied the services. not the type of people you want in your home! read more

I was in a bind. I had a hot water leak under my home. Dunedin Water was kind enough to call me and let me know that I was losing a 100 gallons of water per hour. If they didn't call I would never have known until I got my next bill. I called Friendly because of reviewing their reviews and because of them promoting they are a long time family business. Their technician Tom came for about one hour. He said we needed to get a camera guy to find the leak which made complete sense. Had to wait 2 days for him to come. Found the leak and marked it on the kitchen floor. He was there for less than an hour. I agreed out of desperation to have them fix it on the spot. Cut through the floor. Replaced about a 7 inch piece. Put a bag of quick dry cement. Took less than four hours. Total man hours. Initial visit 1 hour. Camera guy 1 hour. Fix the pipe 4 hours. 6 total hours. Materials. Piece of copper pipe and a bag of cement. $2495. I think it's safe to say now that this old guy who just recently moved here just got taken totally taken advantage of. Maybe a mistake on the pricing? I am asking to review my job and hopefully you did make a mistake on the pricing. For a company to call itself Friendly and family owned, you certainly weren't too friendly to my family. I can say that Tom was a nice man but he and his company should huddle together and do me right. I don't know even know if lawyers charge $400 an hour. When you need to make a quick decision you sometimes get burned. I fell for the urgency created. read more

What a GREAT plumbing experience I received from Friends's plumbing. I broke an outside water access, and I needed assistance ASAP. From Christina who prioritized service calls, to the 2 plumbers that came to my Palm Harbor home - I was impressed. Melvid Cabric, who is both a trainer and an exceptional plumber spearheaded what I need with assistance from MJ, a trainee. It was good to have 2 professionals there. When I approved the needed work and pricing, they started the work and were professional, courteous, and did what was needed. As I asked questions they were quick to respond so I was aware of what was being done. This is the second time I have used Friend's Plumbing, and I am an advocate for them.... They are MY GO-TO for any plumbing work. Roger Palm Harbor read more

We have worked with Friend's Plumbing on a number of different occasions for different issues over the past several years. We have been very please with their response. Their response has been quick and they have been very courteous and professional each time. And their prices have been excellent and their work exceptional. I would not hesitate to reach out to them in the future. read more

Today Jack Vines, Jack has been my plumber for 20 years plus. I followed Jack from previous employer. Jackie thorough explains everything and excellent work. Thank you read more

Everything went well! They even adjusted the price for my call down! So try them out and see what you experience!

We called Friends Plumbing to replace a water heater. We removed the old one and the new one was ready nearby. We were quoted $1300 to install. We were shocked and i asked how much they charge per hour and the tech told me we dont work like that and charge by the job. I sent the tech on his way and found another way to get it done. Total time to install was about 2 and a half hours. Thats about $520 an hour! I dont think Doctors get paid that much. This was skilled labor, yes but doesnt require a PHD. I will not call them again i would not recommend them to anyone as their prices are outrageous. read more

Avoid Friends Plumbing at all costs. I worked there, and it was one of the worst job experiences I've ever had. The environment is hostile, workers are exploited (especially with unpaid on-call shifts), and I was never paid my final check after leaving. On top of that, the company tolerates openly racist and anti-immigrant attitudes. The name "Friends" couldn't be more misleading--there's nothing friendly about how they treat people. Stay away, whether you need a job or a plumber. read more

Reached out for a quote to replace a hot water heater, The quote with the "member discount" was $1690, It's ok if that's the best offer, but the employee said this is the best price around, no one could do lower. Went elsewhere and got a quote for $600 dollars lower. Would definitely recommend to look at multiple quotes, because they were on the higher end. Also buy your own Hot Water heater, Lowes and HD have many in stock, no need to spend +$500 more for whatever they were charging. Sucks i had to spend $75 but in the end, saving $525 is a much better feeling. Hope this helps! read more

WOW! We are so thankful for the outstanding job that Friend's Plumbing employees Jon and Chris did for us! Our water heater was leaking. Not a good thing. They came out the same morning I called and cleaned up the mess it caused and did a perfect job of installing the new one. They we're so professional, nice and kind! I have used Friend's for several jobs and have always been pleased. A big thanks! read more

I had a problem with the shower handle and valve in my master bath. Plumber David Drake explained what needed to be done to correct the issues. He gave me options on the repair work. I choose to have the valve, cartridge and handle replaced with Moen parts. David was easy to talk to, patient and answered all of my questions. He is an experienced and skilled plumber who takes his job seriously. Will use Friend's Plumbing in the future. Their fees are reasonable. read more

Edwin was very nice and cordial. I'm very impressed with the work he did in my home. I've had Friend's Plumbing out to my house in the past and was very impressed with Christopher Gruntz also. I would definitely recommend Friends to anyone I know. read more

I normally use another plumbing company, but my home has a hot water heater installed by and with a warranty from Friend's. The technician was courteous and informative. (Thank you for wearing shoe coverings. I love this!) read more

Had a great experience today with Friend's Plumbing. They replaced the toilet in the master and did a perfect job! Ollie and Jon were very friendly and shared a lot of needed information and did the job much quicker than expected. I look forward to using them again soon...highly recommend them. read more

Friends is friendly but super expensive. Toilet replacement cost $1200. Not sure it's worth it. Will use Home Depot next time.

We had a leak under the kitchen sink. I was pretty sure it was the garbage disposal which is less than 5 years old and no longer under warranty. Friend's sent Nicky Woods out to check it out and he confirmed my suspicions. He got a new one installed for a reasonable price and we are dry again. It took one call in the morning and he was here by 3. Good job Friends. read more

We recently had Dan from Friend's Plumbing come out to take care of several issues we had with Kitchen and Bath Faucets as well as a toilet problem. Dan was polite, professional, and make quick work of taking care of the problems. The cost was fair and we are extremely satisfied with the work that was done. Highly recommend Friend's Plumbing and Dan! read more

My hot water was coming out brown, a tech came out and informed us that it was time to replace the water heater. I wish I could remember our techs name he was absolutely wonderful. He really cared about his job and making sure everything was done correctly, after draining the nasty brown water into our shower he actually took it upon himself to clean the shower and left no trace he was even there, one less thing I had to worry about. He found our water softener was installed incorrectly and the previous company rigged the water lines to "make it work" he suggested it be removed, I'm so glad he caught that and didn't try to sell me another softener just to get money. I will go back for any other plumbing issues I have! read more

I had to get a new frig as my old faithful had it's last breath I bought one with a water and ice, Never had that before so it was exiting. I called Friends as i have used them in the past, and they did not disappoint. I met the founder Grant and his helper, (forgive me I cannot remember his name) He was so nice and we. I was very please with the estimate and they did the work right away. Professional, Polite, Efficient, and very reasonable. I was so happy... read more

The plumber and his assistant were very professional and polite. But $392 to snake a drain on the expensive side. Job took less than 30 minutes. read more

In the past I hired Friend's Plumbing to install a toilet for me, which was not done correctly, so they had to come back and correct their mistake. I therefore decided to give them a 2nd chance by scheduling an appointment with them, and being told I would have to wait about a week until they had an opening, so I said that was OK with me. Today 3/21/24 they were to come down between 2 PM and 4 PM to fix that toilet they installed, and also a leaking bathtub faucet. 4 PM came & went and no one showed up or called, so I called them and was told they would be down around 5 PM instead, as they were still on another job, so I said OK again. A short while later their Manager called telling he was cancelling my job, because I complained. They should not have scheduled me for a service call in the 1st place if they did not intend on showing up. I therefore would check around before hiring this company, as they are not very reliable! read more

I highly recommend this company for your plumbing needs. I recently used them for issues I was having with my shower plumbing. They were my second estimate. They actually estimated my issue at more than 90% + less than my previous quote who tried to tell me that not only would I have to pay over 16k to fix the issue but I would need to hire a contractor for thousands of dollars more to repair all of the damage they were going to create. I called Friends plumbing for a second quote and not only did they come right out to diagnose the issue which I may add was the total opposite of what the other company told me was wrong but also fixed the issue at a very reasonable cost. The staff was on time, courteous and knowledgeable. This company is A1 and should be everyone's first call. This company shows they're honest and have integrity when dealing with customers. They are fair and very professional. I will continue to recommend and use this company for all of my future plumbing needs. read more

Our call, as is usually the case in your business, was a panic call. Your same day service is awesome. We've used you three times before and were not disappointed. Our favorite serviceman is Dan Wheeler. (We call him "Dan the Man"). He gave us some great advice on how to resolve our terrible tasting drinking water without having to spend a lot of money. He is very competent and very personable.....we highly recommend Dan and Friend's Plumbing! James and Jean W read more

It was New Years Eve and the worst tragedy happened. My wedding ring was accidentally flushed down the toilet. It was awful. It was valuable but the emotional value was priceless. It fell at the end of the flush but it was gone. We stopped all water use in the bathroom and called Friends Plumbing New Years Day. Jeremy was our New Years miracle. He removed the toilet and stuck a camera down the pipe. I burst into tears when I saw my ring. He struggled and fought with the pipe, the ring ,the vac and everything. About 2 hours later he finally pulled it out. Yes it was a miracle. read more

Had a clogged toilet, after 4 different times and 3 days later that they showed up finally got a toilet to flush, still not right. After they left I noticed a bottle of pills missing, called the police and filed a report, called Friends to talk to a Manager, never heard back from them. They will not be coming back to my house. Not sure which of the 4 different people that come out took them, but someone did. Narcotics department has the case now. I should have known from all the different prices that I was given, and all the different people they sent out that they were going to get me one way or another. And the youngest guy that was there kept walking into my house not wearing his mask, I kept having to remind him. read more

Mario came first thing this morning, on time, professional, extremely helpful and fair. He even helped with a leak I didn't realize I had in my teenagers bathroom because they don't tell me and I won't go in there . He had to snake 3 lines outside and fix a dripping faucet. Price was extremely fair, nothing extra and super nice guy. Would highly recommend them read more

A few days after this review I wish I could give lower. I heard the plumbing staff saying (doors are very thin) they "could not locate the problem" and "couldnt get it to go down." This was around 3pm, they left the site around 4pm. Around 5pm there was raw sewage backing up into my kitchen and bathroom, after a few frantic calls to my leasing manager who also handled it poorly a plumber showed up about an hour later. Now I am at a loss for personal property. read more

Friend's Plumbing Review At 2:00 p.m. on Tuesday afternoon, my exterminator drew my attention to my leaking water heater. I called my brother who deals in rental properties and asked if he could recommend a reliable and reputable plumbing company. He replied "Call Tom at Friend's Plumbing and tell him I sent you." By 9:30 a.m. on Wednesday morning, Tom confirmed by appointment for Thursday morning between 8:30 and 8:45. Dan Ball arrived at 8:40 Thursday morning and immediately summed up the situation, gave me an amazing and affordable quote and within 3 hours of his arrival, I was waving him off with a receipt and a 6-year warranty in my hand. I am a very happy customer! I was delighted that the price quoted included labor and installation. Dan was efficient and professional and didn't make a mess or if he did, he must have cleaned it up as the walk-in closet (whose brilliant idea is it to ever install water heaters in closets with clothing!?!?!?) was spotless! I highly recommend Friend's Plumbing and I was so pleased that my brother knew someone to call. You can tell Tom he sent you, as well. Just say "Captain Howie told me to call you..." read more

We have been using Friend's Plumbing for many years and prior to our recent experiences they were a good company. I am unsure what the problem is exactly, but I assure you they deserve this rating. We recently had issues with our sinks and toilets clogging. The sink would gurgle repeatedly and the toilet would require plunging regularly. So we called Friend Plumbing to help out. The first guy would not even do anything because he said he could not find a problem. Don't tell me there is not a problem, sir, we have been experiencing problems for weeks. Recent problems escalated resulting in us requiring a plumber, but the first Friend's plumber tells us there is no problem. He claims to have made some minor repairs and that costs us over $100. The next night the sink was gurgling again. We called Friend's again and this time they sent two plumbers. After their "snaking" repairs they accuse us of putting oil down the drain. WE DO NOT PUT OIL DOWN THE DRAINS. We have a container that we use to collect, recycle, and dispose of oil/grease. Yet that was the claim. $250 paid to Friend's and three days later the sink is gurgling again and spewing up dirty water. So what do we do? We call Friends plumbing and demand that they come back out to fix the problem they did not actually fix. We never heard back from them. We will no longer be doing business with Friends Plumbing. read more
