Report
Recommended. The Rightman Co. did the initial installation of our gas appliances including fireplace, stove, furnace, dryer, and water tank. Over the years they checked our water tank, maintained the furnace and fireplace. Fast forward 13 years and it came time for our water tank replacement. We were quoted on tank replacement vs. on-demand. We opted to go with the Rinnai RU199 on-demand option. This involved upgrading our gas line. We love our house and wanted it done 'right'. The installers did a great job figuring out what was going where and how to make this retrofit 'neat'. I was impressed

Had these guys out for a quick fix on a broken pipe in my crawlspace. Super friendly to deal with, reasonable price and arrived early (asked first!). Would recommend and use again for sure. So glad I have a reliable plumber to call when I need!

I can't say enough about Paul and Rightman Plumbing. We have used them exclusively for the past three years and we have always had a positive experience using them. From the the individuals who work for them, to their fair pricing, their responsiveness, and to them cleaning up after a job when they are finished. Highly recommended and a pleasure to deal with, every time. Quality work, quality people.
