    Brian Doherty and his team provided first class service for several gas/electric requirements we had. The plumbing staff were excellent, fully capable, and very easy to work with. Most highly recommended service.

    I have been dealing with Doherty Plumbing for some years and I find them to be professional, knowledgeable and prompt. Their costs are very competitive. They are quick and always fix the problem. They have been so competent and reliable, that I will always call them and never go anywhere else.

    George came; did my work quietly and respectfully. Noted a problem (big gaping crack in the pipe under the bench), and asked if we would like to change it. No pressure applied, and just added it to his list when I gave the go ahead. Would use this company again and again.

    The first gentleman I arranged the appointment with at Doherty Plumbing was most helpful & the attending plumber was a lovely, polite young man who arrived promptly, worked efficiently & completed the job well. Greatly appreciated.

    Tim arrived on time and quickly and efficiently got to the work needed - snaking out a blocked storm outlet. All working now like it should and as I hoped. Great service from Doherty’s!
