My whole home drain line backed up late in the afternoon, and I needed a plumber fast. After calling a couple of other plumbing companies and not getting a quick opening, I called Clifford & Sons Plumbing and Gas and they picked up right away. They let me know a technician could come out within about an hour, which was a huge relief during a stressful sewer stoppage. Kaleb arrived promptly, checked the situation carefully, and started at the back cleanout to diagnose the blockage. Within a short time, he figured out the main stoppage was closer to the front cleanout. He moved to the front access point and quickly got the drain line cleared. It was obvious he knew his plumbing work and handled the clogged sewer line efficiently. I also appreciated that the price quoted over the phone was exactly what I paid. There were no surprise charges, no extra add-ons, and no pressure to buy anything unnecessary. Honest pricing, strong customer service, and fast drain cleaning made this a very good experience. The service felt professional, straightforward, and reliable from start to finish.

I have nothing but good things to say about Ricky and Carson. I first hired them a while back and have called them again for several plumbing jobs since then. They have repaired toilets, installed new sinks and faucets, inspected drain lines and water pipes, checked the water heater, and pointed out possible plumbing issues before they turned into bigger repairs. Their customer service is excellent, and their pricing is very fair and competitive. They are strong at troubleshooting and always look for the best repair option before suggesting a replacement. I really appreciate that they do not push extra work or try to sell plumbing services you do not need. They stay focused on the job, explain the problem in simple terms, and make sure you understand what is going on with the plumbing system. I had put off a few home plumbing projects, but when I brought them up, they were ready to help right away with a can-do attitude. Their teamwork really stands out. When two plumbers are on site together, the work goes faster and smoother because they can handle different tasks at the same visit while still paying attention to detail. That kind of experience is helpful when dealing with sinks, toilets, valves, supply lines, drains, and water heater concerns. They are friendly, professional, and clearly care about doing quality plumbing work for their customers. Ricky and Carson are skilled, reliable, and trustworthy, and I would gladly hire them again for future plumbing repairs and installations. Highly recommended.
We had a new outdoor hose bib installed, and the whole plumbing job was handled well. At first, the added access charge for opening a small section of drywall near the cold water line seemed higher than expected, but the plumber explained the work clearly and completed the installation professionally. The access to the pipe ended up being easier than expected, which helped the repair move along smoothly. A few days later, we noticed a small issue with the new faucet, and Francis called us back right away and made time to come out after hours to take care of it. He fixed the problem quickly and showed great integrity, solid plumbing knowledge, and strong customer service. We really appreciated how responsive and helpful he was, and we would gladly recommend him for outdoor faucet and water line work.
Francis and his crew, kaleb and carson, did an excellent job for my water heater replacement with Clifford & Sons Plumbing and Gas. they arrived on time, were professional, and treated my home with care from start to finish. they explained the plumbing work in simple terms, gave an honest recommendation on the right water heater for my needs, and never tried to push a more expensive option. during the removal and installation, they were careful around the walls, floors, and connections, and they paid close attention to every detail to make sure everything was set up properly. i also appreciated how clean they kept the work area and how they hauled away all debris when the job was done. the whole process felt smooth, respectful, and well organized, and the new unit has been working great. very thankful for the honest service, solid workmanship, and clear communication.
i had a sewer line issue and when i called, kaleb was very honest and helpful. he explained that the repair could get expensive depending on what the drain inspection found, but since i still had another bathroom working, he said it might be fine to monitor it for a bit before doing major sewer work. that advice ended up saving me a lot of money, and i really appreciated the straightforward guidance. as a single mom of 3, i truly value a plumber who does not push unnecessary repairs and takes time to explain the options in simple terms. they had helped with my sewer line before and did a great job then too. this time again, the service felt reliable, fair, and professional. it is hard to find an honest plumbing company that cares about the customer, but they really do. i will definitely keep their number for any future plumbing, drain, or sewer issues and would gladly recommend them to anyone needing dependable service.
Mike and his crew did an excellent job on two plumbing projects for my wife and me, and both were finished fast and professionally. The first job involved digging through our garden area to repair damaged underground water lines. They were very careful while excavating, removed the shrubs with care, and put everything back neatly after the pipe repair was completed. We really appreciated the attention to detail and the respect they showed for our property. After the plumbing work was done, the landscaping looked great and you could hardly tell the area had been opened up. We were very happy with the quality of the service, the clean work, and the overall experience, and we will gladly call Mike again for any future plumbing needs.
Clifford & Sons Plumbing and Gas arrived right on time, which really stood out since I had only set the appointment that same morning. Kaleb came in after unloading his tools from the truck, reviewed the paperwork with me, and then checked the plumbing issue carefully. He gave me an estimate that was lower than what a few other plumbers had quoted me the night before. Kaleb was polite, professional, and easy to talk to. I never felt pressured or upsold. He explained everything in a simple, honest way and treated me with real respect, almost like family. Before I accepted the quote, he even said I was welcome to call around and compare prices if I wanted, but he was ready to get the repair done as soon as possible. That kind of honesty really earned my trust. I decided to move forward, and I was glad I did. The plumbing repair was handled efficiently, and the work area was cleaned up very well afterward. Before leaving, he asked if there was anything else in the house that needed attention. I mentioned that my toilet would sometimes leak from the back. He checked it out and found that nothing major was wrong, just a loose bolt that needed tightening. He fixed it quickly and did not charge me extra for that small repair. If you need a trustworthy plumber who is knowledgeable, honest, and respectful, this is the kind of service you hope to find. Excellent plumbing service from start to finish, and definitely 5 stars.
