 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had Lord Plumbing install our gas cooktop and couldn’t be happier with the service. Luke was great with communication from start to finish, keeping us informed and making the process easy. Al did an amazing job with the installation — very professional, neat, and efficient. Highly recommend Lord Plumbing for quality work and excellent service!
