"Price was ridiculous for work that was actually done - I will take the heat on this one as we did not do the initial request correctly. We should have gotten a better quote but we did not really know what was actually needed"

"Removed old hot water tank and replaced it with a tankless hot water heater. Work was done in crawl space with less than six feet height available in work area. All done in a few hours last September. It's now the following August (11 months or so later). Everything seems to be working okay. Workmen were polite, professional, timely, focused on the job, carried away all the old parts and cleaned up well---we were quite pleased with the whole process."

"Outstanding Service from Modern Plumbing LLC! I had an excellent experience with Modern Plumbing LLC when they installed my new water heater. From start to finish, the service was professional, efficient, and stress-free. The plumber arrived on time, clearly explained my options, and walked me through the entire installation process so I knew exactly what to expect. The installation was done quickly and cleanly, with great attention to detail. Everything works perfectly, and I can already tell the quality of work is top-notch. It’s rare to find a plumbing company that combines expertise, honesty, and great customer service, but Modern Plumbing LLC absolutely delivers. I highly recommend them to anyone needing reliable plumbing or water heater installation—you won’t be disappointed!"

"I called in the morning and Chris came out in the afternoon, when I was available. He explained and showed me what the problem was. He didn't have a new water heater on his truck so Tim came about 45 mins. to bring one. Installation was fast and Chris was very professional. They will be the first ones I call if I have any other issues."

"Chris and his assistant today, Robert, were professional, courteous, and honest. I scheduled them to change out water supply lines on 5 toilets in our new home. Chris assured me that the lines installed were of high quality and did not need to be changed out. I have plans to install a water monitoring system and will definitely use Cape Fear (requesting Chris, of course) for the job. I highly recommend Chris and by association, Cape Fear!"

"Very professional, explained things as they went along, even came back in two days to help me re-light the pilot light on my new gas water heater so I would know what to do."

"The technician, Steven, was very polite and friendly and knowledgeable about my plumbing issues. He was going to provide an estimate, but I discovered while he was at my house that the work was covered by my builder."
