“Brian possesses all the technical skill you will require for your job, further he demonstrates an ability to listen and problem solve from a relationship perspective that is hard to find in this industry. When I mentioned I wanted to keep my faucet and go down a long road to fixing it, Brian fluently asked questions to ensure I understood the budget and time impact of my decision. Brian’s people skills are then matched by his business and organizational skills with pricing, scheduling, and his website. Supporting a young man who owns his own business leaves me understanding where my payments actually go. Don’t hesitate. ”

“While helping my cousin with her late father’s home in Ohio, we needed to know about the gas water heater - how to light the pilot and then make sure it was working properly. We got Brian on a video call the same day. He helped us get everything working safely! Highly recommend Pocket Plumber.”
