I want to thank Black Cat. Our kitchen faucet broke over the weekend and was spewing water all over the place. I called Monday morning, and Brenton came over when his original appointment cancelled. He was professional and thorough and nailed it! Thanks! Service: Faucet installation

We used them for a major re-piping project at our condominiums and it was the consensus that they were the best contractors we'd ever used. They were clean, respectful of our space, they always let us know what to expect and there were no surprises. I highly recommend Black Cat Plumbing, I'll never use anyone else! Service: Plumbing pipe repair

Report
Horrible job doing the repipe. Very expensive and left a huge mess under the house and said they would take the old away. They did not. Had another plumber come out and he thought I had done it. Completely unhappy with this disaster of a job after spending $8000. The piping is just thrown under there with shortcuts everywhere instead of making it look nice. Realized this horrible work after I crawled under the house. They must've thought they could leave this disaster thinking I'd never see it. I am very easy to please this is literally the first bad review I've ever left anyone.

We Love Black Cat! After buying an old house and realizing all the plumbing had to go, I couldn't have been happier with my experience with Black Cat. Mike, the owner, was lovely: very straightforward and very clear about the bid, pricing and timelines for work to be done. All communication was easy. They worked to fit our timeline restrictions into their schedule, did the work quickly and efficiently. We enjoyed everyone on their team and are confident in the work they performed. Thank you! Highly Recommend and would absolutely go to them first for any future plumbing needs.
