Leak Detection and Pipes
We find the leak before we open the wall, then repair or repipe in copper or PEX and put things back the way we found them.
A water stain on the ceiling tells you there is a leak, not where it is. We locate it properly first, which usually means one small opening instead of three exploratory ones, then repair or repipe and put the wall back.
Tell us where you are seeing water or hearing running.

Excellent experience with E.W. Tompkins Plumbing Heating Cooling. Avery was professional, friendly, and took the time to explain everything clearly. The whole visit was smooth and stress-free. We would absolutely use them again.
EW Tompkins was great. Helene in the office was very pleasant and professional. Avery arrived early and was most efficient resolving our main drain issue and the pricing was very fair.
EW Tompkins sent out 2 techs and replaced the equipment quickly and carefully. Very attentive to customer concerns. I have full confidence in them and will use them as long as I am in this house.
Helene was the only one who returned my call for a boiler emergency out of 6 companies I contacted. When they could not help, she referred me to several companies that could. That kind of service sticks with you.
They returned my call right away, had someone at my house within an hour, and finished with an upgraded steel line and shut off valve in just over an hour. Very reasonable price. I absolutely recommend E W Tompkins.
Called and was contacted immediately. Appointment scheduled within the week. Technician arrived on time, investigated thoroughly, got the right parts, and solved the problem. Great experience start to finish.
E.W. Tompkins came in at the best price. Marcus did a no-nonsense assessment on what needed to be done within minutes, while others spent time trying to sell new systems that would not have worked.
Appreciate the quick and easy service. Tech arrived early to service my water heater and also fixed a secondary issue with my bathtub faucet. A+.
Easy to make an appointment online. Patrick did a great job. I will definitely call Tompkins when I need service in the future.
Everyone at E.W. Tompkins has been friendly, courteous, and professional. They give great advice on how to save money and the guys work extremely hard to get the job done right. 100% recommend.
I had a water leak that looked like it could be expensive and time consuming to fix. The price was very reasonable and it was up and running in no time. Six stars.
First time using them. They arrived right on time and installed a water heater at a much more reasonable price than another well known company quoted me. Will be back.

E.W. Tompkins is great. I just needed a kitchen faucet replaced, but during the job a damaged hot water valve was found and fixed as well. I had to reschedule twice and they happily accommodated me both times.
The E.W. Tompkins team is the best. They came back on New Years Eve to replace a completely blocked pipe, and while doing so fixed the issue stopping our dishwasher from draining. Absolutely stellar professionals.
Top notch. They came the next day, replaced a shut off valve, piping and a toilet flange, and cleaned up in less than an hour and a half. Friendly and fair priced. I definitely recommend.
Scheduling was quick and easy. The tech was knowledgeable and friendly. The work was completed on time and the price was exactly what I expected. No surprises. I would definitely recommend EW Tompkins.
E.W. Tompkins got back to me quickly, worked efficiently on my gas boiler tuneup, and the guys were friendly and helpful with recommendations. Looking forward to working with them again.
Had a great experience with EW Thompkins. Erin was super helpful before the installation, and Avery and his colleagues who did the install were fantastic. Very happy with the service.
They installed a new water softener and water filtration system. Excellent job. They were very nice and professional. I am very happy with the work.
A very good experience. Several repairs done in a timely and professional manner at a really reasonable cost. Avery is the nicest plumber I have ever met. Explained everything and checked the work twice.
Work in the basement was completed at my elderly parents home while I was away. On completion, the technician called to walk me through everything that was fixed. Excellent service.
Prompt and very friendly. Wonderful job at a fair price. There was a manufacturers defect on one of the toilets and they had it replaced a day earlier than scheduled. Would recommend for any plumbing need.
E W Tompkins sent a very knowledgeable and professional plumber to evaluate an issue with my tankless hot water heater. They will also be servicing my boiler. I highly recommend this company.
E.W. Tompkins have always been very responsive, prompt, and professional. I called on a Monday morning about a leak and they were at my residence by afternoon, diagnosed the problem, and fixed it the same day.
