What recent reviews say

Shuler Plumbing earns strong marks for speed, honesty, and value, with long-standing customers and quick responses during emergencies. Two older complaints about water heater pricing jump out: one customer paid $280, then $800 for the same flush a year later and couldn't negotiate; another found the same service elsewhere for $85.

Based on limited recent reviews, so treat this as low-confidence.
