Paul is great with the pipes. He is accomodating and quick to respond to my frequent plumbing requests (pinhole leaks in copper pipes behind walls).

Paul has been amazing. He's fixed my valves for my washer, replaced the shut-off for my sprinklers and installed a toilet for me. Always responsive and thorough. Highly recommend.

Tom came on time, was knowledgeable and pleasant, and diagnosed several problems quickly. He finished the job quickly, the pricing was reasonable and I will definitely use this company again, and ask for Tom to do the job.

We had a dripping shower/tub faucet. Took a picture of it and sent it to Paul. Set up appointment to replace the cartridge. Done quickly and no more leaks.

I contacted Paul Blackard (owner) of Universal Plumbing (who came highly recommended by a good friend who has used Universal for all of her plumbing work) to get a second opinion on a sewer back-up problem in our house. The first plumber had told me that there was a dip in the sewer line and that the only way to fix it would be to tear out the slab and install a new sewer line, with a huge price tag and major demolition work. This didn't sound right and seemed drastic, as we have lived in our house for over 7 years and never had a problem before.

Paul came out to our house this past weekend

These guys are by far the best! They had my sink up and running in less than 1 hour and their work is guaranteed. I will not use anyone else. I highly recommend them.

Great Service! Wally was smart, informative and performed all tasks exceptionally..... definitely knows his "electricity." Lot of electrical issues with this house, and he took care of us.
Thank you very much!!

I was a little doubtful looking at all the five star reviews that a plumbing company could wow me, but they did. I needed an inspection done for a property I am purchasing, and while Paul was a few minutes late (he did let us know), he was very thorough and efficient. He was extremely professional, and seemed to be invested in helping us determine every possible issue and non-issue with the plumbing. He even climbed up on the roof, checked the water heater, and knew a lot about every system that involved water running through the house. I was impressed, and felt like I was in good hands. I

The BEST. QUick response, reasonable rates, reliable service. What more can you ask for? I had a few issues and the owner, Paul, came right over and fixed everything. There was something caught in garbage disposal and he got it out quick. Hot water heater needed adjusting, he knocked it out right quick. Backed up toilet -- fixed it quick. I would not use any other plumber and you should heed my advice. Real deal.

Our kitchen sink was badly plugged and our toilet kept running randomly.

I called these guys based on their great YELP! review, and I must say I am NOT sorry that I did.

Talked to Paul and told him what was up, he said they were pretty busy but would call me back and let me know if they could get someone out to my house that day, and if he could I'd know around 3-4PM otherwise they'd come tomorrow.

Well around 3PM I get a call saying they'll be here in 20 minutes.

Tom showed up, fixed my toilet very quickly (the flapper was old and leaking so he replaced that) then moved

I have called Universal Plumbing a number of times and have always been very satisfied with their work. Whether it was a clearing a clogged drain, installing a new toilet or even issues with our garbage disposal, Universal Plumbing has always gotten the job done. They are very prompt and professional and always willing to give you advice on how to prevent or solve the issues you are having on your own.

The most recent time I needed their service was during the SuperBowl this year. I had a house full of people and had a plumbing issue which could have put a damper on the party. I called Universal
