Had FME Plumbing replace our water heater recently and couldn't be happier with how it turned out. They were easy to communicate with, showed up when they said they would, and got everything taken care of without any hassle The new water heater has been working perfectly and the install looks really clean. It’s always nice finding a local company that does good work and treats people right. Would definitely use FME Plumbing again. Thanks again Noah and Brayden

Noah from FME Plumbing in Fife fixed my decade long leaky shower head and my shower is now finally drip free! He replaced and fixed the internal valve cartridge and was very kind and professional and did a well done job. Thank you Noah from FME plumbing! I don’t have to hear that constant drip anymore 👍
