"Magnet repiped our entire house last month. Clean install, finished a day ahead of schedule, and they respected our home the whole time. Worth every penny."
"Main water line burst and we had a river in the front yard. They isolated the break, got the water back on within a few hours, and replaced the section cleanly the next day. Excellent emergency response."
