Our Story
Built on a Handshake, Not a Sales Pitch.
In 2002, Les Metcalf started this company with a simple idea: treat every home like it’s your own. No upselling, no commissions, no pressure. Just honest diagnostics, upfront pricing, and work you can count on for decades.
Twenty-three years later, that handshake promise still drives everything we do. Les is still a Master Licensed plumber. The team he’s built, including his daughter Lauren, who runs the office, shares his belief that trust is earned on every single call.
We’re not the cheapest option. We’re the one your neighbor recommends.

“Les came out the same day we called. He diagnosed the issue in ten minutes, gave us the price upfront, and had it fixed before dinner. No surprises, no upsell. This is how plumbing should work.”
★★★★★
“We’ve used Metcalf for three different jobs now. Every time, they show up on time, explain exactly what’s happening, and the price is what they quoted. Rare these days.”
★★★★★
“Our sewer line backed up on a Sunday night. They had someone here in under two hours. That kind of reliability is why we’ll never call anyone else.”
