Very good service. Fixed my disposal could have charged for a replacement. Very honest and dependable

Had Pooles Plumbing come out to diagnose and fix an intermittent issue with my tankless hot water heater. Everything worked like clockwork! The crew who came out was very knowledgable, professional, quickly diagnosing the likely problem and suggesting a good cleaning first before any more costly repairs. It has been working perfectly so far since their visit. I would definitely use them again!

I had a wonderful experience with Poole's Plumbing. Found a water leak in the line between the meter and my house. They came out promptly and told me everything that needed to happen (cable, gas, sewer lines marked, inspections, etc.). They took care of everything! Everyone with whom I dealt was friendly, professional, knowledgeable, and efficient. And so very neat! I had to have a long trench to lay new pipe, and just a few days later, neighbors are commenting on how you can barely tell I had the work done! They left my yard looking as good or better than when they left! And they alerted me to a potential electrical grounding issue with my home. No one wants the expense of a water main leak, but I feel very good that I had the best people on the job!!

We have been dealing with the headaches of Polybutylene pipes for years, (leaks, burst pipes and lost sleep) but finally bit the bullet on getting the house re-plumbed. We had several quotes and chose Poole's, and we are very happy we did. We were on their schedule within 10 days of selecting them to do the job. Earl and John showed up on time (called before arrival) and explained how they would do the work. Going in we knew they would have to cut away some dry wall in the walls and ceiling to get to the upstairs bathroom plumbing, but I was surprised how small the holes were, they were like surgeons. They used the existing runs, removing the old pipes and putting the new in the same holes where possible.No one wants to spend that much money to fix something that isn't broke at the moment, but I can honestly say this was one of the best decisions we made at our home. We will sleep better knowing the poly is gone, and we made the right decision having Poole's do the work.

From the first call placed to Wendy at Pooles Plumbing to the actual service performed, the entire team delivered 100%. Cory arrived with all parts needed and did a fantastic job repairing the leak on our well water system and installing an isolation valve as asked. I'd definitely recommend Poole's Plumbing based on my experience with them and will be contacting them again when I have more work in the future. Thank you!

Cory did a great job replacing our direct vent tank water heater. There were some space challenges they worked through and couldn't thank them enough for the work they did with minimal disruption to my day. From my initial contact with Wendy, working with Makayla on the quote through completion of the project with Cory, everyone was kind, answered all my questions and provided a great experience overall. I'd definitely recommend Poole's based on my experience with them and will be contacting them again when I have more work in the future. Thank you!

Install sump pump.I also had Poole's replace my water heater yesterday (Feb 2023) and am very happy with their service. Their price was very competitive, and they accommodated my request for prompt service as I had been without hot water for a few days. The installation seems to have been completed in a professional manner.

First time use of Poole's Plumbing. I live in the Atlanta, GA area. My rental property in Raleigh is occupied with family members. Poole's technician, Kai, was thorough, knowledgeable, and professional. Repairs were within the scope of the work and done well. No surprises. I highly recommend this company.

I have used Poole's plumbing for installation of our tankless water heater, and later for its maintenance and repair. The water heater later failed on a Saturday morning over a holiday weekend. The on-call technician quickly responded and had the system up and running by the afternoon.Most recently, Poole Plumbing installed a toilet and replaced a broken faucet in my laundry room. Again, they did a great job.I find them to be very responsive and professional with reasonable pricing for the services. They are my plumber of choice!

I had a great experience with Poole's plumbing when they came to replace the gas pipe connecting my house to the meter. They were on time, had fair pricing, and were extremely professional. Bill, Henry, Cody, and Dylan worked together from giving me a free estimate, installing the pipe, and then meeting the city inspector all in a timely fashion. Makayla and Jessica were extremely helpful on the phone with scheduling and questions about billing and my quote. I cannot recommend this company enough!!

We had an intermittent water leak that we had not been able to isolate. Unfortunately, it got much worse on a Friday night and we needed help. Henry with Poole's was very professional and polite. We got the job done quickly and with minimal mess. Will use again.

We had a break in our water line that was on our side of the meter so it was our responsibility. Pooles Plumbing was so helpful, Jessica is so knowledgeable, professional, and very kind as well. It was fixed in good time and Keith and his partner were just wonderful. Thank you for quick and thorough action.

We ordered the Tank-less water heater maintenance service -Descaling & Flushing. Mr. Earl performed the excellent service and ran extra miles to check my bathroom's water flow. He detected the possible problems and fixed it. Now, I can enjoy my hot water shower without any interruptions. Thanks! Earl! for your services!

I had a problem with a toilet line stopped up. Carrie was so helpful in getting help to me quickly. She also scheduled several more follow-up that needed to be done. She could see how anxious I was about this. and went out f her way to reassure me that they would take care of this problem. Coery came and did a great job. I appreciate all they did for me.

We had two aging original water heaters, one electric and one direct vent gas that needed replacing. Pooles was one of three places that I got quotes from and their quoting rep, Bill, immediately impressed me with his attention to detail and knowledge of what my options were. Bill took measurements inside and out and talked about the exact process for similar replacements or a switch to tankless. In our case, I decided that it made the most sense to convert to tankless and it was clear that they were pros at doing that conversion. The quote also came in the lowest which was a great bonus, but since this is critical house infrastructure I was weighing the decision more on the expertise exhibited at the quoting stage.When it came time for the install, the techs Henry and Dylan did a fantastic and expert job. They mounted the new unit to the wall, plumbed in a dedicated gas line from the outside meter and very cleanly and neatly plumbed the unit in with our existing water lines and recirculation system. All of the visible hot lines were insulated for efficiency and you can almost not tell we used to have tanks. The before and after photos speak for themselves. They were done in a day and the inspector had no concerns whatsoever. VERY satisfied customer here! Thanks Poole's!

I was having some issues with my Rinnai water heater, and noticed that on the Poole's Plumbing trucks in front of me in traffic, it said they worked on Rinnai water heaters in particular, so I gave them a call.The two young men they sent were courteous, polite and knew their trade. They cleaned up my old Rinnai and asked me to let them know if the issue persisted, though they seemed confident it wouldn't.So far, so good.I'll be calling these guys back for anything else I run into plumbing-wise.

Contacted Poole's Plumbing via their website. Asked for an estimate to replace our hot water tank. Process was simple and easy. Poole's contacted us and provided a solid quote with a good product. Installers were prompt, professional, and completed the job in a timely manner. Great job all around and will use again in the future. As a DIY'r, I am very pleased with price and workmanship.

We recently moved to the area and needed a day’s work of plumbing tasks completed from installation of faucets and toilets to replacement of our shut-off valve. It was obvious that when the person came out to do the estimate, we had the right company. From the estimate to the end of the work, we were impressed with the knowledge, skills, and professionalism. We wouldn’t hesitate to use Poole’s again. Thank you!
