Great work as usual
Response from the owner:Thank you Jim. We have worked together for almost 20 years and getting this last job knocked out quickly was our highest priority.
Their customer service was excellent and the technician that came to my house was friendly, honest and respectful. 5/5! I would definitely call them back and would also recommend them in the future.
Response from the owner:We appreciate your kind words and look forward to helping you again in the future.

Response from the owner:Thank you for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear that Chazz and John arrived on time, took the time to listen to your concerns, and thoroughly explained the available options for your bathroom sink and shower faucet issues.

Avoid this company - Upon arrival to fix a leaking toilet line, the plumber was trying to sell all sorts of additional parts replacements "just in case" and pushing their annual home service plan. They also asked if there were other plumbing issues they could look at. I paid the $129 service call but didn't proceed with the $380 quote to simply replace the supply line. Highway robbery.
Response from the owner:Kevin, your feed back is appreciated and I do apologize that our giving you multiple options made you feel sold to. Our intention in giving multiple options is to provide you with choice. Thank you also for taking the time to talk to our office, and you have my word that we will be much better in the future about the options we present and that it is ultimately "your" choice how to proceed.

Called Baethke Plumbing to address sump pump issues. Karry I. arrived 10min early (perfect for me) and listened to my description of the sump pump problem. Karry provided 3 available solutions and ultimately replaced the main pump in no time at all. Karry also verified my backup pump was functioning. Karry was excellent in providing a thorough analysis and going over the pros and cons so I could make an informed decision. I found Karry to be very friendly and professional. Overall I found the service to be high quality. I was extremely impressed with Karry and would not hesitate to call Baethke again.
Response from the owner:Thank you for choosing Baethke Plumbing for your sump pump issues and for sharing the details of your experience. We’re glad Karry arrived promptly, walked through multiple options with clear pros and cons, replaced the main pump quickly, and confirmed the backup pump was working properly. We appreciate your kind words about the professionalism and quality of the service.

I called Baethke Plumbing for a water heater repair and was impressed from start to finish. The plumber, Isaac, arrived promptly, was friendly and explained everything clearly. The work was done quickly and correctly, and the whole experience felt sincere and reliable. I appreciated the timely service and will definitely use them again when I need an emergency plumber or any plumbing help.
Response from the owner:Adam, thanks for taking the time to share this. We’re glad Isaac arrived on schedule, explained the water heater repair clearly, and got everything fixed efficiently. We appreciate your trust and look forward to helping whenever you need plumbing support again.
The plumber was so polite and professional. Superstar service. You are now my first choice for any plumbing issues in my home.
Response from the owner:Thanks so much, Denise. We’re glad our plumber was courteous and handled everything professionally, and it means a lot that Baethke Plumbing is now your go-to for plumbing needs at home. If anything else comes up, we’ll be ready to help.
