Highly recommended
Mike & his apprentice came to deal with our plumbing issue on very short notice, and did a great job in promptly identifying and solving the problem. Friendly, skilled and thorough, Shorefront Plumbing are exactly what we needed.
-Chris King
Fantastic experience
Mike came out on a weekend and had a drain unclogged within an hour for a very reasonable cost. He was very personable and explained everything in detail. Fantastic experience, would give more stars if possible. (5 star Google review!)
-Brandon Commons
Quick professional service
Mike called me back right away for peace of mind, and he was at my place first thing Sunday morning to access and fix the problem ... Furthermore he fixed a couple of other minor issues while here that day since he was already on site.
