"Main water line burst and we had a river in the front yard. They isolated the break, got the water back on within a few hours, and replaced the section cleanly the next day. Excellent emergency response."
"Saul and crew are the best. Replaced our water heater, re-piped, and gassed up our kitchen and laundry room. Honest, fair, efficient, and went above and beyond. I could not have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend. Thank you!"
"Been meaning to write this for a while. Our sewer line collapsed and we had three quotes — two wanted to dig up the whole yard, Magnet recommended trenchless. They finished in two days, no damage to the lawn, and the price came in thousands under the other guys. The Magnet team knows what they are doing and I will not hesitate to call them again."
