We have used Isherwood Plumbing (24 hour service)
Robert Isherwood Jr.
352-259-9331
352-504-7342

He put in some new parts on our water heater and was professional, prompt and friendly. We were pleased with his work and he lives in The Villages.

I also needed a plumber for a clogged drain (whole house) when I was away and could not be there. First called TV water district and they came and checked from the road to the house, and said that was clear. Then I went to the Virginia Trace web site and the "good services list."

I called SS&S Plumbing Michael Smith 352-636-3819 16+ yrs experience and he took care of the problem. He was quick to respond, priced fairly, and did a great job. Sometime after that I needed someone to fix a problem with a toilet that was not anchored properly. He came again, was responsive, priced fair and solved the problem. He could have made a big project out of this problem by replacing the flange on the drain pipe. Instead he used a spanner kit made to resolve this type problem at a much lower cost. I would highly recommend him.

I have found the Virginia Trace "good services" list to be an excellent source of reliable contractors.

I have used Paramount Plumbing which is owned by Patrick Daugherty
352-330-7233. He is a very honest, Christian man who does an excellent job at fair and reasonable prices and I would highly recommend him.

As with Willie, I also have had similar experiences with S&S Plumbing. They serviced my home for a major clog problem and resolved it sucessfully. However, I recently called them about the exact problem that Willie had (leaking pressure relief valve) with similar results. They promply replaced the original valve. After a couple of months, I noticed that it was still leaking. A call to their voicemail went unanswered. A second call resulted in an appointment ten days out. No show, no call on the appointed day. I'll find someone else.

I've found Alan Byer to be both reasonable and good (352/205-7504). He's a Villages handyman. He's installed attic stairs and repaired a garbage disposal for my clients. In both instances, he was prompt, fair and very reasonable. One thing I really like about him is that if he can't do it, he'll tell you so.
