Gary Starr answers the phone and from the very start he was very polite and so helpful, I was sold. For the water heater and labor, he charged us a very fair price and did such an amazing job.

He showed up within an hour, finished the job within 30 minutes. The price was reasonable and I waited a week to make sure everything held up before I posted this. No leaks, no wobbles, all is well. I will definitely call him the next time.”

“Gary was called for a quote for install a water softener, he came pretty quick to give us that quote. We agreed Monday that by Thursday he was going to come and get it installed, it’s already Thursday of the following week and he’s been ignoring my calls, my texts. I had to call him from another phone and he’s response was “I’m in California, I’m unavailable until next week” (which it’s this week) and still ignoring my calls.”

“On 8/5/19, I called at approximately 7:30 a.m. to service a couple of leaking toilets. I explained the problem, as best I could, to the man answering. He told me to take photos of the leaks and to forward them along with my name and address. He did not take the time for pertinent details and as such I called other plumbing company who catered to my needs within one hour. If they are too busy to listen, especially to a senior, they do not need my business!”

“Gary was prompt and quickly fixed the problem that others could not do. We were extremely thankful for his help. We highly recommendation him for any of your plumbing needs.”

“Mr.Starr is a completely unreliable and and waste of time. We went with him due to reasonable pricing but now since regret it. A job that should have been only a two week job has been going on 6 months and yet to be completed. We can never get a follow up not even an answer from him. PLEASE DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME AND BELIEVE THESE REVIEWS LIKE WE DID. We are ones that never write reviews but this is something that we do not anyone else to experience.”

“Called C&S Plumbing because we had a pipe burst on the second floor of my house and it was flooding. They said they would be out as soon as possible, but it may take awhile because of availability. Understood. They never came. They never called. Thanks for nothing.”

“Gary responded and quickly fixed our situation. We plan to hire him for a few more jobs.”

“Gary was just great, he showed up Sunday and by Monday morning he had me going. Great service awesome guy and helped me and my family out in these tough times. Definitely would recommend no doubt.”
