"Texted Eli a photo of the leaking shutoff at 7:18 AM. He texted back a $185 quote by 8:30 and was here by 1pm. Charged $185. That's a unicorn in Asheville plumbing."

"Replaced our 18-year-old water heater on a Saturday morning. Quoted $1,340 over text Friday night, showed up at 7:45 AM Saturday, was done by 11:30. Final invoice was $1,340. No surprises."
— David K., Montford
"Eli came out for a kitchen sink that wouldn't drain. Could've sold me a sewer camera. Didn't. Ran the snake, cleared it, charged $145, and told me to call him in a year if it came back. It hasn't."
— Aaron T., North Asheville
"Three other plumbers ghosted us for a Saturday faucet swap because it wasn't lucrative. Eli came over Tuesday at 10am like he said, installed the Moen we'd bought, charged $180 plus $24 in supplies. Easy."
— Priya R., Kenilworth
"Sent a video of a hissing pressure regulator. Within an hour Eli called and walked me through what was happening and quoted $285 to replace. Was here the next morning. Final $285."
— Mark P., Haw Creek
"We had a slow tub drain my husband had been working on for a month. Eli ran the snake, found a piece of plastic from a kid's bath toy from 2014. Charged us the standard $145 and refused a tip. Good guy."
— Sara L., Oakley
"Installed a new garbage disposal we bought at Build.com. Quoted $220 plus $18 for supply parts. Final invoice $238. He even hauled off the old one. The thing is rock solid."
— Becca W., West Asheville
"Our 1924 Montford house had a galvanized supply line failing on the second floor. Eli quoted $1,240 to replace the run, did it in one long day, and we haven't had a pressure complaint since."
— Theo G., Montford
"What I like is the texting. I sent him a photo of our hose bib at 8 AM on a Wednesday and had a $165 quote by 9:30. He came that afternoon. Replaced. Done."
— Carla H., Beverly Hills
"Toilet running constantly. Eli rebuilt the fill valve and flapper, $175 flat. Took thirty minutes. He could've sold me a whole new toilet — didn't."
— Ethan O., River Arts District
"We're in Black Mountain. Eli grew up here. He knew our neighborhood by street name, knew the soil, knew the kind of supply lines our 1956 ranch would have. Took ninety minutes to do what two other plumbers had taken three visits failing to do."
— Lori D., Black Mountain
"Wednesday job — his nephew Sam was riding. Both of them polite, neither one trying to sell me anything. They diagnosed the issue, fixed it, charged the diagnostic plus the repair, and were gone in two hours."
— Frank R., Fairview
"Honest about not doing gas. Recommended Marcus at Apex. Marcus turned out to be excellent too. The fact that Eli sent us to the right specialist instead of pretending he could do it is the whole reason I'd call him again."
— Naomi B., Weaverville
"Installed a Rheem 50-gallon tank with a new expansion tank. Quoted $1,340, charged $1,340. Pulled the permit. Even left the inspector's card with us. Doesn't get cleaner than that."
