The staff from first contact to the two guys that came out were friendly and knowledgeable. Jack is a nice young man and he knew his job and did it well. Korey did the camera inspection and explained everything clearly to me. I need some more work done tomorrow beyond the drain cleaning done today so someone else is coming out to do that. I'm confident they will do the job well. I would recommend Hoover to anyone.

During a wind storm we recently had our gfi ruined in our bathroom. Hoover sent Greg D out the same day (literally within 2 hours) to look at our issue. He was able to quickly fix it and also suggested a surge protector on our box. Somehow we never thought of that and have had two power surges in the past two years (due to weather) and had previously lost a lot of electronics. He was able to install that as well while at our house, at a great price. In addition, he checked our other outlets while at the house to make sure they were all working properly. Highly recommend them for any electrical, plumbing, hvac or ac needs. My father recommened them to me and I'm glad he did!

I haven’t had the work completed yet, but I wanted to share my experience so far. Hoover Plumbing has been very conscientious and thorough in the planning stage. Before moving forward, they are taking the time to consult with the inspector to ensure everything is done correctly and up to code, which I really appreciate. Aaron, in particular, was excellent. He took his time during the visit, was very conscientious, and didn’t rush through anything. It felt like he genuinely wanted to understand the situation and make sure everything was handled properly. I had multiple rooms that needed workmanship reviewed, and he went through each one carefully, giving each space the time and attention it required. He also made it clear that if the job moves forward, his goal is to make sure it’s done right the first time. So far I’m impressed, and I’m looking forward to receiving the quote and understanding what needs to be done. I also really value that he is coordinating with the inspector to ensure everything is handled properly from the start.
