Report
Brown Brothers repaired a back flow pipe. They arrived right on time and completed the work faster than anticipated. They are great to work with.

Report
I asked Brown Brothers to come out and look at my central air unit after I was told by another company that my unit would need to be replaced at a cost of close to 5k. The service technician took a look at it and told me there was just condensation that caused it to shut off and that I didn't need a new unit at this time. They saved me $$$ and I will recommend them to anyone who asks! Editing to add that my unit has been running fine and it's been over a month!

Report
Prior to this incident I was not a customer of Brown Brothers Plumbing. I found a problem late one evening and the next day I called Brown Brothers Plumbing around 2:00 pm. A crew was sent to my house and the problem was fixed long before the end of that day. Although the problem itself did not take long to fix, to get someone to do it so soon after calling on the same day was appreciated!
