Before every appointment, they send a text with the tech's name, photo, and even a little bio including their hobbies. It's like getting a match on a dating app, only this time the person actually shows up and fixes the problem instead of ghosting you. The first visit didn't clear the clog, but the next day another technician came out and patiently explained everything. Both were courteous, on time, and really knew their stuff. And while Yelp loves photos, trust me -- nobody wants to see what was blocking my drain. That's a whole different genre. Bottom line: Boothe's brings personality and professionalism to plumbing. They made an unpleasant situation downright educational and pleasant -- and that's a rare gift.

"Just to prove I was here." Good-bye. Waste of an entire day. Boothes reputation with me has declined very quickly in the last 12 months. Now they even have AI answering their phones. Very, very disappointed by this company as I have shared their contact information with so many people.

I called three different major national/regional plumbers on Sunday night and none of them would come out and I had to schedule one for Monday at 8am. None of them would even give me a quote range over the phone. I called Campbell's in the morning since they are local and had great reviews and explained the situation to them and the work that was needed and they quoted $1300 over the phone. The major regional plumbers showed up and the quote with their "discounts" was $2359. Campbell's was able to come out this afternoon and complete the repair. They were great from start to finish. Jenn was great over the phone, friendly, and extremely helpful. Nick did the work and he was very nice, explained the job, and did a great job with the repair. They've were fantastic and I highly recommend them and will be using them again in the future on all my plumbing needs! Highly recommended, honest, and fair prices!

Since the very first time…read morethat I called him freaking out because the water was dripping into my dining room from the condo above mine until today, he has repeatedly proven himself to be skilled, professional, experienced, and honest, even if it means that he won't make as much of a profit. Mr. Hagan's years of experience allow him to look at or listen to pipes, faucets, water heaters, etc., and quickly assess the challenge at hand and go about the business of repairing them with expertise. He has revealed and repaired several issues in my home, not the least of which have been my garbage disposals, yes with an "s." Sadly, I destroyed one via a horrific spoon incident and nearly killed another one by means that I shall not mention...ever! : ) He has put my Tankless Water Heater on extended life support several times, saving me untold money for which I am ever grateful, and even shown me how to "fix" my kitchen spray nozzle myself, again showing that his care for the customer, like the way that he conducts his business, is legitimate.

They did a fantastic job and went out of their way to ensure my carpets remained clean, which I did appreciate a lot. However, what I appreciated the most and where Drew went above and beyond is earlier this evening I noticed my upstairs carpet was wet. I ran downstairs and noticed a 8-10" water ring on my ceiling. I called Drew and without hesitation he said he'd be over soon, and walked me through shutting off the main and draining the system. He arrived within 30 minutes and said, "There's no way I can leave you without water overnight." He then immediately started addressing the issue. The immediate response alone shows they truly care about their customers so I highly recommend Drew and Matters Plumbing. Thank you again Drew!

Both systems were functioning just fine, EXCEPT for some reason after the technician left the Honeywell Provison Series 8000 thermostat started to malfunction. The next day it just went blank. (Hmmm.....coincidence or causation?....just saying) The technician came back and said the thermostat was defective and he could change it out then and there as he had one ($590) in his truck. I figured it was under warranty so why not and the technician said I would "get my money back, well most of it". RED FLAG - I should have asked for an explanation. So my card was charged for $590. The office just called and said they credited back to my card $343! and they pocketed $247!! (for "shipping and labor"). So be wary and very careful if you have hired them, but if you are not locked into a Maintenance Agreement I suggest you call another HVAC company.

We had suspected gas leak months ago when we called to schedule a refill we told them we aren't using the gas this fast and they never told us they tested it at all. I found the leak myself and they came out to repair it, I lost hundreds of dollars in lost propane over a few month time and they still charged me for the repair, apparently we own the gas line running from the tank to the house. This was very disappointing because we asked them to check for a leak and they never did, we have a half empty tank AGAIN. We are billed for the repair and we are also stuck paying for all the lost gas. Sorry to say but we will be shopping around before we refill this time.

The EIA dot GOV websites states that the Maryland delivered to home cost per gallon as of 24 February 2025 is $3.785/gallon. Another local company, Taylor Gas, is currently as of today, 04 March 2025, $3.30/gallon. It blows my mind that Suburban is so simply robbing customers in Southern Maryland. After I called and complained, they gave me a 20% discount (now $4.968/gallon). That is still 50.55% higher than what Taylor Gas charges. If you have the option to go to just about any other provider in Maryland, maybe you should. But... but, if you have a tank with Suburban at your home that you bought with the tank already installed, you are stuck in their lease (which costs roughly $48/year). That is not bad, right? You cannot buy your way out of the lease in order to use other suppliers for much lower costs. You are stuck. If you want to cancel service with them, then you will have to get that tank remove (out of the ground) at your cost. Why can't you buy out of the lease, because their lawyers gave them the great idea to state that the tank is used and they cannot sell it to anyone. Where is D.O.G.E. where you need them? This sounds like a bad dream and it is. Suburban Propane should be avoided at all costs...
