I was remodeling my house and was looking for a good, fair-priced plumber in the Kenosha area. I was extremely lucky with Karlsen Plumbing. The price was fair, and the job was done quickly with great attention to detail. Joe and his foreman Bob knew their trade extremely well and thought ahead, advising "how to save money" without cutting corners on my large project. They did not play the "Change Order Game" - typical for many contractors today! I highly recommend Carlson Plumbing for new construction or remodeling. Finding a good plumber today is not an easy task.

They're pretty upfront on what it's going to cost. I had to call a couple times recently and Dave was pretty accommodating and thoughtful about his work. I will try to not call again for a long time lol
