Services
Sewer and Drain Cleaning
Our comprehensive sewer and drain cleaning addresses clogs, slow drains, and system maintenance using advanced equipment. Technicians employ high-pressure water jetting and mechanical snakes to restore optimal flow. Customers appreciate our preventive maintenance recommendations that reduce recurring issues while our emergency availability ensures urgent blockages get immediate attention.
Toilet Repair and Replacement
From leaky flappers to complete toilet replacements, our specialists handle all aspects of toilet maintenance. We diagnose water waste issues, repair faulty components, and install water-efficient models. Clients benefit from our diagnostic approach that identifies root causes rather than temporary fixes, with same-day service available for critical failures.
Camera Inspections
Using state-of-the-art camera technology, we visually inspect pipes to identify cracks, blockages, and corrosion without destructive digging. This non-invasive method provides accurate diagnostics for targeted repairs. Homeowners value the transparency as we show video footage of issues and explain repair options before any work begins.
Water Heater Installation
We install both traditional tank and modern tankless water heating systems, including energy-efficient models. Our technicians assess household needs to recommend appropriate capacity and type. Customers receive lifetime maintenance tips during installation, with extended warranties available on qualifying models to protect their investment.
Emergency Plumbing Repairs
Available round-the-clock for urgent issues like burst pipes and flooding, our emergency team responds within 15 minutes of dispatch. Equipped trucks carry common replacement parts to resolve most crises immediately. Clients receive priority scheduling during disasters while maintaining standard pricing with no after-hours surcharges.

After a miserable experience with the previous plumber who could not figure out the issue at all I decided to go in a different direction and call Taylor. They came out, actually listened to what I had to say about what the issue was and they knew exactly what it was. They fixed the problem and was out the door in about 30 minutes. Blown away by their knowledge and professionalism.

Our kitchen sink was clogged. When I called They we're able to do same day service. I received a phone call to let me know they were on their way and they had our drain unclogged quickly. If we ever have plumbing problems again we will call Taylors Plumbing. Service: Drain unblocking

Nate Taylor, the owner of the company, came out today to do a lot of plumbing services for us, and he was absolutely delightful. So professional and personable. He was on time as promised, neat and clean, very organized as he worked, he was efficient and installed new faucets in our kitchen and bathrooms, he fixed our water pressure and fixed some leaks in different pipes. His price was very reasonable, his company doesn't pay for fake Google reviews (notice how other plumbing companies who have been in business for only 3 years have 500 5 star reviews?
They are paying for fake reviews) and I am thrilled to have found him because he will be the plumber I use from now on. Highly recommend to anyone who wants a competent, trustworthy and fair plumber.

Critical: Professionalism, Quality Plumber was to unclog the pipes but instead he caused over $6k in damages. Office manager Cheryl offered to refund my charge but when asked about the damages to my carpet and ceiling, she asked "don't you have a lil kiltz for that?" Service: Sewer repair
