What recent reviews say

Meetze technicians arrive on time and diagnose problems with genuine competence, even tackling complicated systems and emergency weekend calls. Reviewers name staff members often, noting their politeness and professionalism; several mention clutter cleanup and aftercare. Two complaints center on cost (one gas line and leak repair totaling $4200; another $300 diagnostic) and one suggests a repair was attempted despite doubt it would work.

The company operates seven days and fields Sunday and holiday requests. Water heater, leak, broken pipe, and gas line work feature prominently in praise. Their website claims A+ BBB rating, licensing, and service across the Columbia area since 1981.

Common questions

Do you handle emergency calls on weekends and holidays?
Yes. Multiple reviews confirm response to Sunday calls and 4th of July weekend emergencies. The business publishes seven-day hours.
Will the technician clean up debris during the job?
Yes. One technician cleaned up a broken fluorescent bulb from an unrelated fallen light fixture; another left everything very clean after water heater replacement.
What does a gas line installation typically cost?
One review cited $3100 to add a gas line to a stove, though this is a single data point and costs vary by scope.

Most customers encounter punctual, knowledgeable technicians who explain their work clearly and handle emergencies fast, even on weekends. A small minority report unclear pricing terms, poor follow-up, and incomplete drain work that left water damage. Named staff (Richard, Matt, Leon Bowers, James Marlowe, Robert Brown, Nick Fort, Dakota) consistently receive praise for professionalism and patience. The business operates across Columbia, Forest Acres, Irmo, and surrounding areas. Membership discounts have hidden conditions that frustrated at least one reviewer.

Bill Corcoran and his team handle emergency calls within hours and charge fairly for the work. Customers who have used him for years praise his honesty, quick turnaround, and willingness to explain options rather than upsell parts. Work spans emergency water line repairs, water heater fixes, leak detection, dishwasher installation, and toilet rebuilds. Reviewers consistently note on-time arrival, clean work sites, and a personal touch that distinguishes a one-person operation from larger outfits.

Most calls reach Plumbing Brothers within minutes, with technicians arriving same-day or next-morning even on weekends. Jarrod and Jared are praised by name for clean work, clear explanations, and solving recurring problems others missed. Two negative reviews report steep charges for simple jobs, failure to complete promised follow-ups, and poor workmanship that caused kitchen flooding and required a second company to fix it. The 4.9 rating masks significant tension: 96 percent five-star reviews reflect those who received thorough, honest service, while the one-star complaints raise concerns about consistency. Reviewer complaints centre on pricing surprise, incomplete work, and a shift in tone once payment clears. For repeat customers who build rapport with named technicians, results have been reliably excellent.
