"We had Kelton & Bobby as our service team. After owning 6 homes and 3 different restaurant businesses and needing plumbing help on multiple occasions. These two by far, were the most well-groomed and polite plumbers we ever had. They were absolutely the most informative and helpful with our situation than all others combined, we have used plumbing services locally and nationwide. You will get honest options and excellent work for your situation, if you use the camera option you will fully understand and see what their suggestions are about. As well, as the recommendations to rectify any possible future issues, you may possibly experience. We cannot imagine that these two are the only two like this with this company, which speaks volumes for The Plumbing Authority as a company. This tells us that the company takes care of their people and shows a fantastic work/customer-service culture. That Kelton & Bobby demonstrates with pride, so well. These guys actually work for you with doing the best job possible on the situation you are in, which tells you they are not just punching a time card and actually take pride in the work they do for you. We will never even consider using another company in this area again."

"After discovering a drip from a shutoff valve under our kitchen sink, I turned to Home Advisor to find a plumber. I entered the particulars and hit the enter button on my computer. Almost instantly, my phone rang. I mean within seconds. It was Bobby with Tennessee Standard Plumbing and Drain Experts. I explained our situation and Bobby explained our options. I agreed to have him send a crew to investigate and determine a solution. He said a crew would arrive between 1 and 5 pm that same day. Shortly after 1 pm, I received a call from the crew informing me they would arrive within 20 minutes. Right on time, the crew backed their big blue truck in the driveway. They put on their face mask (because of this COVID19 crap), shoe protectors and introduced themselves presenting me with a very impressive metal business card. They were Jonathan Marsh and Casey Field. They were in uniform, very polite, and ready to find out what was required to solve our problem. Jonathan did an assessment of the situation and determined it was not the shutoff valve leaking. The leak was actually occurring at the connection of the valve to the pipe coming thru the wall. He explained what they would have to do to solve the problem and worked up a quotation. I agreed and they went to work. They replaced the defective galvanized pipe with new stainless-steel nipples. Installed new shutoff valves and hoses. They reconnected everything, tested all for leaks, cleaned up (they did not make a mess), and were finished. I have to say we are completely satisfied with Tennessee Standard, Bobby, and the crew, Jonathan and Casey. They were all so professional and so detailed and solved our problem. I highly recommend Tennessee Standard Plumbing and Drain Experts because they are just that, Experts!"

From the moment they arrived, they were professional, knowledgeable, kind, and genuinely cared about helping us. They went above and beyond to get the job done right, and we couldn’t have asked for better service. They were aware of our situation and handled it with such compassion and generosity. We are beyond grateful for their hard work, honesty, and kindness. SMK Plumbing is definitely a company you can trust, and Brandon and Zack are two people who truly deserve to be recognized for the way they treat their customers. We would absolutely recommend SMK plumbing to anyone."

"I had a plumbing emergency very prompt about coming out and fixing problem. While fixing my outdoor broken main pipe Mr Rooter tech discovered a break in my natural gas line and promptly called city utilities to fix problem even staying to show city workers where leak located on Mr. Rooter camera. This was on a federal holiday too. I had smelled gas leaks for several months prior and so had my next door neighbor. We both called the city utilities several times to report gas smell and nothing was done to fix problem by city workers.. But when city workers saw camera pictures they couldn't argue and fixed gas leak. Mr. Rooter tech went beyond what would be expected of a plumber."

"About four years ago, I had my sewer line cleaned by another local company. At that time, the person doing the cleaning bent his augur on â somethingâ and drew back mud. He told me that they would have to rip down my retaining wall and repair my line as â itâ s broken and you need a new sewer lineâ . Being retired and disabled, I was not able to afford it, so I bought a hand augur and did my own line but I could never get past 30 feet in doing the line. Lately there has been more back up and the line was not draining much at all. I called in a national company to clean the line and they also suggested running the camera down it and seeing where the damage---possible collapsed clay pipe?â was. After analyzing reviews online for trenchless sewer repair, as I did not want to rip down an over 100 year old stone retaining wall, I decided to call Gardner Plumbing and have them camera the line. The sewer was full of water to the top of the floor drain, and when Kevin came out he meticulously augured that sewer line for close to four and a half hours until it was clear and even made it to the main sewer line under the street. In doing so, he removed an unbelievable long thick root that was in the line that I can best describe as looking like a root from a Redwood tree! He then ran the camera as far as he could and there was no damage at all to the line: a few cracks, but no damage/breakage whatsoever! Instead of costing thousands of dollars to replace the line, I was charged a reasonable amount for the augur of the line and the camera. I highly praise this work that Kevin did and I thank him and Gardner Plumbing for being honest and not immediately trying to convince me on getting a new sewer line when I didnâ t really need to replace it. I will use this company in the future and will tell my neighbors about the greatâ and honestâ work that Gardner did. Thank you Gardner, you have a new happy customer now! ï"
It depends on the severity of the leak. Minor leaks may not require immediate attention and can be scheduled during regular business hours. However, if the leak is causing significant water damage or you can't control the flow of water, it's best to call an emergency plumber right away. Addressing serious leaks promptly can prevent structural damage and mold growth, potentially saving you money on extensive repairs later.
A journeyperson plumber is a licensed professional with a state-issued permit who installs and repairs piping for water and heating systems under the supervision of a master plumber. They have completed extensive training and amassed significant experience leading teams, drafting blueprints, and designing comprehensive plumbing installations. Their proven expertise ensures that they can handle both routine repairs and complex projects with precision.
