    I wish I could give more than 5 stars because these guys totally deserve it! Our furnace was completely shot after some hack job bubble gum and duct tape handyman repairs done by our landlords friend over a 6 week period. Of course it went out at the worst possible time so I was desperately calling around on a Friday before a long holiday weekend, everyone was booked and it was looking like wed be without heat for at least 4 or 5 days in 0Ā° weather. I suddenly remembered seeing their van around and gave them a call. Steve took my initial call and he was incredible, he was able to schedule us for a service call that very evening. Jarred was the tech who came out and he was absolutely incredible; he was very professional, informative and was able to identify and resolve the issues quickly. (Which, given how many elements were put in backwards or rigged together, it was super impressive that within 2-3 hours he resolved the problems wed been dealing with for nearly 2 months.) Was such a relief to know it was finally fixed by a qualified and knowledgeable professional. I cant tell you how much we sincerely appreciate the exceptional service, from the moment they picked up our call all they way through to the completion of our repairs. They will indefinitely be our first and only call for any future issues!

    I had an emergency (no hot water) at my business on Friday afternoon. After a misunderstanding, the owner of Flow Star made himself available after hours AND had a technician fix my issue promptly that evening. I GREATLY APPRECIATE Flow Star and HIGHLY RECOMMEND them. They earned my business going forward!!

    I have heard of miracles before but thought they only happened to other people. Flow Star was able to somehow fit me in for a time sensitive underground sewer rough-in on a two-day lead time when another company didnā€™t work out. (In the middle of June, no less.) Kurdel and his employees were courteous, consummate professionals and the communication was flawless from start to finish. They represent the best of the skilled trades and I couldnā€™t be more pleased to involve them on our project. I am an executive in the housing development field and I know quality in the workforce when I see it. I highly recommend their services to the community without reservation.

    In a dark frigid land where circle and mountain and the fellow trades are out to drain your wallet. Kurdel comes flying in on a Phoenix, bringing light,compassion, and professionalism. ( He makes Gandalfs arrival at Helms Deep look weak AF) I took on flow star to assist with an entire house renovation. I had them help with 2 bathrooms, utility room, moving gas lines, and putting a new drain system under the concrete slab as well as replacing a decent amount of old water lines. Every visit, his crew was professional and up front about the jobs being done and what issues were found.Jake and Jarred were on point, showed up on time, and got to work. I fully plan on using them again in the future and strongly advise you to consider them to.

    Kurdel went out of his way to help us get hot water as our waters needed replacement on the same day. The techs were great and very professional and did a great job installing the new water heaters. Cant say thank you enough. Thanks again, great Job. Would recommend them.

    Our plumber, Hill, was knowledgeable, capable and had great manners. His work was thorough and he tested it to make sure all was well. Flow Star was able to take care of us within a couple of hours, same day service. I highly recommend Flow Star, and especially Hill. Thanks for a job well done.

    Jared is fantastic! Hes been taking care of my heating system for years. Hes super skilled and knows what hes doing. On a Friday he went above and beyond to get a hole drilled into my new sink for me. Turns out it is made from the strongest stainless steel in the world, haha. (The sink also was a pain to install and all the plumbing under my sink had to be updated and redone.) After going through several drill bits and spending way more time than anticipated, he and the owner came up with a solution. He ended up taking my sink out, taking it to the shop so the owner could use his welding skills to get the hole in, then he came back and installed everything. He was patient, they problem solved, worked late on a Friday, and did it all with a fantastic attitude. Super grateful for them! Thank you Jared and Kurdel!

    Marco from Flowstar came out to my mother-in-laws house to check her furnace. Although it has made a few unexpected noises, he assured her that it did not need to be replaced and throughly checked it out and cleaned it up. She got a report of everything checked and what the current condition was for each thing checked. Not only did he check the furnace he took the time to check on a plumbing issue, which he was not scheduled to do. My worry was that a company would come in and take advantage of my mother-in-law. That did not happen. I have referred Flowstar before and I will continue to do so! Two thumbs up!

    As owner of a property management company in Anchorage, I have used many plumbers over the years. There have been several companies that I have tried using exclusively over the years because they were doing a really good job. I found Flow Star Plumbing and Heating a few years ago when I was searching for a company because my regular plumber wasnā€™t available for an emergency job I needed done. I was so impressed that I never switched back! The plumbers and staff at Flow Star are amazing! They are extremely knowledgeable, reliable and make customer satisfaction a priority. Steve and Jared deserve a shoutout in particular for making this the best plumbing company in town!

  • Review 10 (2023-02-19 - Rating: 5)

    I had 4 family members visiting and my water heater decided to stop! After having a great experience with this company the last time I had issues, I called them again.It was another great experience. Someone came out on a Saturday at 4 pm to install a new water heater. The call out fee was very reasonable for a holiday weekend and they service was excellent. I cant recommend them enough!

  • Review 11 (2023-06-10 - Rating: 5)

    I requested a quote through Lowes and was please to schedule the visit for the next day. The owner came to provide the quote. He was very patient to explain what would be done and answered all the questions I had. The quote came in as promised first thing the next day and with itemized details. I was able to have my electric hot water heater installed a few hours after I finished the Lowes paperwork online. From the quote to the installation, it was only about 24 hours. And the price is very reasonable. Much lower than another quote by another local business. I have to say - great satisfaction from start to finish!Fast forward a year...I notice there is a minor leak from the pipes above the hot water heater recently. It is just a few days passed the full year since the installation. I contacted the owner about the issue. A technician called to schedule the service in two hours and came to address the issue later that day. The service was performed professionally with no additional cost for me. The same technician has to come back for the follow up job later. He was very accommodating to my schedule. I had some questions after the follow-up service. The owner returned my call right away after he received my text.I really appreciate the timely and professional customer service. They provide very reasonable priced and wonderful service. I will definitely have them for my future plumbing needs

    Definitely FIVE stars for Flow Star! I had two problems at two houses - a gas leak with my moms boiler and a pin hole water leak inside my house walls. Both jobs done quickly and professionally with everything explained. Since the water leak was deep inside the wall, Jake even snapped a picture on his phone and showed me the problem. Hands down - THIS is the company to call! Thanks guys!

    Submitted a warranty request through HSA which sent me to Flow Star for my Furnace. Every part of working with them from talking to the receptionist for an available service appointment, to trouble shooting my furnace over the phone with their owner until the technician made it to our home that same evening was absolutely wonderful and easy. They went out of their way to come to my home the same day I submitted the claim because we werenā€™t getting heat in this severe Alaskan cold. Would highly recommend a company like this that goes out of their way to take care of their customers no matter how busy they are.

  • Review 14 (2024-01-27 - Rating: 5)

    Phenomenal company to get your heating and plumbing needs. Tini was a super hard working guy and finished our furnace in no time. Definitely recommend going through them.

  • Review 15 (2024-05-13 - Rating: 5)

    Our experience with Flow Star Plumbing is excellent. Whenever we called they responded promptly & we are very satisfied with their job. They have done the job in an excellent manner and very neatly. The charges are also very reasonable.

  • Review 16 (2022-07-13 - Rating: 5)

    I just had Jared and Timo do a two day install on a heating system and they were great. I havenā€™t seen a couple of harder working guys in a long time. In this post-COVID day of companies generally not caring about customers Flow Star was a breath of fresh air for good price, on time, hard working reliability. I would use them for everything plumbing related.

  • Review 17 (2024-05-14 - Rating: 5)

    I work for Alaska Ship Creek RV Park for the season and we were suppose to be fully open today but ran in to issues with busted pipes after we had our water turned back on. Called Flow Star out to repair it and Tino was amazing. Came out same day to fix an emergency leak and even came in to the office to show us what the problem was and how he fixed it. Super professional and nice would totally recommend to anyone looking for plumbing services!

  • Review 18 (2023-09-29 - Rating: 5)

    After leaving the below review, the owner reached out to me to resolve my complaint. He looked into the issue and was genuinely concerned about the service that was received. I appreciated how important customer service is and how much he wanted to resolve any issues i still had. I can tell his customers and business means a lot to him. I believe that his knowledge of short comings he uses for training opportunities.I called this company for a leaky faucet. Which should be a simple repair. They got me in right away, but what they did not tell me is they were gonna charge me for drive time, and they also did not explain any pricing before he got started or when they called me to give me the time they would be coming. I realize there should be a 1 hour minimum. But when it takes you only 15 minutes to drive to my house and 10 Minutes to Fix the Leaky Faucet and Charge me 1.5 hrs, which is $165 an hr so $277 for a leaky faucet. They need to tell customers. They are unprofessional. They even replaced parts my husband had already replaced but he did not tell me what he was going to do and just did it. I could have said something. So basically not good communication with this company.

  • Review 19 (2023-12-19 - Rating: 5)

    Yeah buddy, Flow Star saved my day- and house. My boiler went out in December AGAIN and everywhere I called was booked, didnā€™t answer, or wanted to charge me an arm and a leg for an emergency call out. I called Flow Star and got a very prompt response. Within minutes Tino was on his way to save the day! Tino was prompt, professional, kind and knowledgeable. He got my boiler up and running and was able to provide me with the best suggestions on boiler replacement. I highly recommend Flow Star and will be using them again!

    Our family lost heat during a cold snap this weekend and one company came out and deemed it hopeless. Went with space heaters all weekend. Called Flow Star at 0800 this morning, and they were here before lunch! They helped me come up with a way forward plan and found the least financially impactful option for our family to get heat.Very much appreciating their team.Thank you!

    Had to replace the water heater and Flow Star was able to get me in less than a week. Mantina completed the job on his own and the setup looked much better than before, he installed new piping and connections. Thank you Flow Star

  • Review 22 (2023-12-12 - Rating: 5)

    I called on a Friday for leaking hot water tank, got an appointment for Monday to come give me an estimate to replace hot water tank. Technician that was sent was able to give me an estimate in about 10 minutes. 30 minutes later I called back to make an appointment for install. Technician returned two hours later with everything needed to complete the job. Communication was awesome, they explained what was going to be done, and answered all our questions. Technician was very professional and made the install look easy.

  • Review 23 (2022-10-07 - Rating: 5)

    Flow Star is now my go to company for heating and plumbing services.First I needed a plumber, but everyone I called couldnt come out for a couple of weeks, or not at all. I called Flow Star and they sent someone that day to fix the plumbing issue we had. The service was great. Professional, courteous, on-time, quick but all quality work...all the attributes one would hope for.So I decided to call them back to service my furnace. Again I was very impressed with the level of service. They are definitely doing it right. Very honest and trustworthy. Im glad I found them.

  • Review 24 (2024-02-07 - Rating: 5)

    A leak sprung under the kitchen sink, and Jake from Flow Star was fixing it within a few hours of my call. He was super professional and great to talk with. Excellent experience.

  • Review 25 (2022-10-13 - Rating: 5)

    Called them after having lost faith in Anchorage Plumbing (horrible service and communication). Flow Star was quick and had someone out to install a new hot water heater the next day (after 5 days without hot water) based on pics I sent them!! They also processed a warranty refund for me!! Used them again at the office and they were just as quick and professional.

  • Review 26 (2022-12-18 - Rating: 5)

    My 25 year old furnace stopped working this winter, I called numerous contractors in town and chose Flow Star Plumbing and Heating to do the furnace replacement. They answered the phone when I called and had someone come out and quote it the same day. They let me pick out the furnace I wanted, matching what was existing, and completed the install that same week. They were very transparent with what I would need and quoted the job accurately. Their price was in the same ballpark as the other contractors, but the service they provided went above and beyond my expectations. They did not change order or adjust pricing. They honored the pricing initially given even though the scope did increase a little to include the replacement of an additional electric unit heater located in the Furnace closet. I strongly recommend using Flowstar Plumbing and Heating for all plumbing and HVAC needs.

    Flow Star has been amazing for us. Sean was able to help us out quickly several times recently with replacing corroded valves, installing a new toilet, and fixing a leak in a pipe. Steve, Sean, and Kurdel were responsive, professional, super helpful, and really went out of their way to help us when we needed them. We definitely plan to continue using them in the future, and we definitely recommend them!

  • Review 28 (2022-04-13 - Rating: 5)

    Flow Star is the best!! Very responsive and professional. An earthquake broke my water heater and it was flooding my garage, I called Monday morning and someone came out that afternoon to replace the entire unit. The service is unbeatable, and the staff really hustle to get parts even when theyre discontinued or unavailable without making you wait or having to come back numerous times. This is the second time theyve come through the same day to resolve an issue. I wont use anyone else.

  • Review 29 (2024-05-14 - Rating: 5)

    Tino was fantastic! He was very informative and helped fix three separate leaks, same day, to get our business running on opening day! Will definitely be calling them for all of our future problems!

  • Review 30 (2023-07-15 - Rating: 5)

    Highly recommend Sean! We had a leak from the garage ceiling and werenā€™t quite sure from which bathroom upstairs it was coming from. He found the leak quickly and was very professional and polite. He worked quickly and made it easy to understand the issue! He also pointed out maintenance that could be a problem in the future. Really appreciate the advice and help he gave.

    Flow Star plumber Tino Unga installed our new water heater yesterday. It has probably been well over a decade since my husband and I have seen Tinos level of professionalism and courtesy! What an absolutely outstanding young man! It was literally our privilege to have such an amazing young man provide services for us.Tino took the time to show us how everything worked, pointed out everything he did and explained in detail how the sensor light worked. He cleaned everything up where he was working as well. Service like this is so rare anymore that it literally took my husband and I by surprise.We also had a few questions about our boiler for our floorboard heat. He truly went above and beyond answering our questions. I can tell you with certainty that we will be returning to Flow Star when are ready to replace the boiler and any other plumbing services we need based on our interaction with Tino!!!!I highly recommend Flow Star to anyone who needs plumbing and heating services!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Thank you Tino and Flow Star for outstanding service, professionalism and courtesy!!!!!

    I broke my tub faucet off trying to fix it myself. It was after normal business hours and now I had no water in the house! I called Flow Star and talked with Steve. He sent Jarrod over with a new faucet within the hour. Jarrod made quick work of a bad situation and had me fixed up in about two hours. He even cleaned out the mess in the tub!! What a pleasure to deal with true professionals who know how important real customer service is!! Hats off to the folks over at Flow Star!! You have acustomer for life. I will encourage everyone to give this company their business!! Thanks again. Will stop by to visit one day. Dave

    This is the company you need to call for your plumbing needs. There is no doubt about it. I have had them come 4 different times for different problems with my house that is over 40 years old. Their work is superior to other plumbing companies with a more reasonable cost. Plumbing problem? Call Flow Star. Thank you Steve! Thank you Jake!

    I had a wonderful experience with Kurdel and the Flow Star team! I needed my home repaired for sale after it was wrecked so my agent got me a quote from Flow Star. My house needed extensive work from top to bottom and they were able to start immediately. Kurdel was very communicative and honest and Iā€™m so glad I trusted Flow Star with my house.

    If youā€™re looking for a well coordinated team to get the job done on budget and on scheduleā€¦ look no further than Flow Star Plumbing and Heating. From initial quote, scheduling, install and recommendation on services/parts ā€” my needs were taking care of to replace all the toilets in my home.Sean answered all my questions, concerns and was professional during the whole project. Each location was cleaned, inspected and properly installed beyond my expectations.I highly recommend the team at Flow Star Plumbing and Heating and will be returning to their team for future projects.

    Just purchased a new home and a few months pass then the blower motor starts to hum. I put a claim in with my home warranty company and they dispatched Flow Star. Sean the service tech did his due diligence and confirmed my suspicions about the blower motor. He also checked the airflow at the registers and discovered we had a CO2 leak and because of that he wouldnā€™t be able to repair it and we were looking at a new furnace in our future. Sean was very polite and knowledgeable and even took time to tell us his back story and how happy he was to be working for a union company. Steve, the man behind the phone, was also very personable and took the time to answer all my questions and got us an invoice and on the schedule for the install very promptly! Joe (journeyman) and ā€œTiniā€ (apprentice) arrived on time for install and were extremely personable and professional! Being a former sheet metal Union man myself I was very happy to find out this was a union company! I couldnā€™t be more pleased with Flow Star and will definitely recommend them for anybodyā€™s HVAC needs and will definitely keep them top of my list for plumbing and heating needs!Thank you so very much!!!

  • Review 38 (2023-08-07 - Rating: 5)

    Sean did an awesome job installing baseboard heating vents. Great customer service and communication. I havenā€™t had covers on them for a while and dreaded doing them myself. My place looks so much better with them and Iā€™m glad I went with having them professionally installed!

    My husband and I are first time home owners. We shopped rates and overall reviews closely to make sure we werenā€™t being raked over the coals financially for our home remodelā€¦.I called them two separate times for two separate jobs (one simple job and later one more invasive gas line job) and they got in within the day I called. Each job was finished same day.EXCELLENT job execution and communication - I couldnā€™t even tell they were in the house because of how clean it was.Great pricing as well. Payment process was done after the job was finished and it was incredibly easy to do via my phone or laptop.I believe I spoke to the owner himself when scheduling and confirming payment - love that!Good company 10/10 recommend.

  • Review 40 (2022-12-18 - Rating: 5)

    I had not used this contractor in the past nor did I know the owner, Kurdel, or any of the staff. However, Kurdel is extremely professional and honest. I would highly recommend him. He had come out to give an estimate on replacing 1 water heaters. We ended up hiring him to replace both of the heaters. His price was very competitive and slightly below another contractor that had given us an estimate. What impressed me most with Kurdel was how he resolved an issue. After installing one of the heaters, I noticed a rather large dent toward the bottom. As disappointed as we both were that his guys installed the unit with the damage, he was insistent on making it right and replace the unit at no cost. With absolutely no pressure from Kurdel, I ultimately decided to keep the damaged unit as it was cosmetic damage that didnt affect the warranty or life of the product. Kurdel and Flow Star Plumbing are competitively priced, filled with integrity and offer great value.

    My disposal unit just up and quit on me, and they were able to come out and see what was wrong. It needed to be replaced (which happens) and they were prepared with a replacement unit. Tino was professional and friendly, very polite, and answered my questions as well as explaining his recommendations for making my kitchen sinks plumbing better. I cant think of a way their service would have been any better!

    I recently used Flow Star to repair my old furnace. Kurdel and his team were quick to diagnose the problem and most importantly locate the part needed for the repair. They went above and beyond to find the old part we needed and saved me thousands of dollars by not having to install a new system. I had a warm house when we all got home that night. I would highly recommend using Flow Star.

    I highly recommend Flow Star plumbing. The owner came out to look at everything for us himself. He gave us a very reasonable quote for what we needed fixed and was able to make the repairs in the same visit. I got a quote from another company here in town for over double what Flow Star quoted me. He even checked a blockage I had in my laundry room drain for no additional cost. Mr. Robertā€™s and his team were very professional and thorough from start to finish. I will definitely be using them in the future.

    Just wanted to share my experience with Flow Star. Kudos to the crew for coming to our aid to fix our leaking pipes. Their knowledge from owner to tech is awesome and it showed in their work. Even after miscommunication Cordel reach out and explained everything in a very patience and professional manner, he stayed clam even when my husband and I were flustered and irrigated. He worked with us and Im glad I listened and gave them a chance to fix the issue. After being burned by other professional contractors our apprehension dissipated when owner and techs explained and completed their work. We will defiantly use them again in future, if needed. Thanks Flow Star for your patience and work performance.-The Barkers

I will definitely be using & recommending Flow Star for my future plumbing and heating needs.

  • Review 52 (2022-10-26 - Rating: 5)

    There are three individuals I want to honor in my little quest to fix my piping in my place. First some backstory: house built in the late 70s-early 80s had the original copper on a specific run for domestic potable water and heating lines as well, all the pipes were run very close together which resulted in electrolysis over time (Im surprised this issue hadnt popped up prior to my ownership of the place) and this year they decided theyd had enough and started springing pinhole leaks.Enter Flow Star. First, I called and made an appointment and got Jared (technician #1) out, he quickly found and temporarily stopped the biggest (and I thought only) leak with a hose clamp and recommended that I replace the entire run of copper with PEX piping. I agreed and asked for a bid.Next came Steve in the office, he sent over a bid and I thought it was competitive (I work with lots of HVAC vendors so I know that this bid was decently good, it was about $50-$100 more than one vendor but about $50-$100 less than another, so right in line). I told Steve I would take him up on this bid once I got back from a trip I was going to take shortly. I got back and asked him to update the bid as it had been more than 30 days since I got the bid and prices probably changed, sure enough they did but it was only a $75 or so change, so it was fine.About a week before my appointment time Steve made a very tough phone call to me, he called and asked if we could reschedule my appointment about 5 days further down the line as there was a family (dad, mom, three kids) that had no hot water and needed a new hot water heater badly. I wasnt thrilled to let my pipes leak longer but there was no way I was gonna say no to that. I agreed and was very impressed that Steve was willing to make such a tough call on a customers behalf.Finally, Shawn (sp?) came through and replaced the run of copper, he did a great job while working around my setup and our belongings, worked fast and efficiently and got it done faster than I expected him to. He even cleaned up the job site of debris and mess that he didnt cause (extra drywall Id torn out to make it easier to get at the problem areas) without complaint.In summary, Jared, Steve and Shawn (sorry if I spelled your name wrong bud) went above and beyond for my plumbing misadventures:- First they accurately and quickly diagnosing my problems and applying the appropriate fix while recommending a good permanent one. I want to emphasize they did this quickly and did a thorough temporary fix that didnt go into overtime, thus saving money.- Second, the bid I received was competitive, clearly spelled out with good detail and organization and they made it easy to pay it using a e-check on their website. The phone call to reschedule on behalf of a customer in an emergency situation (health and safety) was also a difficult one to make and Steve advocated for his customer and his family, which I greatly respect.- Finally, they came out to replace the piping in question to remove almost any chance of it leaking again in my lifetime (PEX is awesome) and finished faster than they anticipated. The technician was competent, friendly, knowledgeable about the subject matter and experienced (the fittings and layout were done well in my opinion). Cleaning up the site and removing debris, even though he didnt make the mess, is truly above and beyond.Flow Star Plumbing and Heating is a great HVAC company and I look forward to working with them again in the future, and I think anyone reading this who is looking for quality work at a competitive price should seriously consider them.

    I arrived home yesterday from the store to find my water heater literally busting at the seams (spraying straight out of a nail and over flowing). After being told by another company they wouldnt come out till the next day, I was assigned Flow Star by my home warranty company.They were out here in less than an hour. And immediately told me I would need a new heater (which I had highly suspected). Tino explained to me what he thought the underlying cause of the issue was.On the spot they asked me if I wanted it replaced that day, submitted a quote to my insurance company, and got a new one delivered.Tino did a great job with installation and took the time to explain the pilot afterwards.

    What a great experience! Kurdel was very professional. I had an electrical and plumbing problem with my furnace. Someone from one of the well-known companies came twice and was not able to fix the problem. A friend recommends Flow Star, I called and he showed up the next day. He took the time to explore, diagnose, and fix the problem.He left the utility room cleaner then he met it.Flow Sart is who you call when you need plumbing and heating work done right.

    They came out for a free evaluation the same day I placed the call, and I received an estimate for a replacement water heater installation within 48hrs, with a full breakdown of the price. I was able to schedule to have my water heater replaced within the week, and they were in and out in about 3 hours without a hitch. Great job!

    JARED is my hero! I was having trouble finding someone when my boiler broke down. Once I got a call back from him, he did everything I needed. He was the friendly, professional, timely manner and did beautiful work installing a new boiler! He said, ā€œIā€™ll try my best.ā€ And he did more than just a job. He cares about your concern and tries to answer for you. Yes, I recommend 100% Flow Star plumbing and heating if you have trouble.

    Amazing and prompt service! Our heat went out over the weekend, and after calling multiple other services, they were the first shop able to send someone out on Sunday to get it fixed. Sean was great about explaining the issue to us and about describing preventative maintenance for the future! Highly recommend and will be calling again if he have a heating issue. Thank you!!!

    First and foremost let me just start off by saying AMAZING, FANTASTIC, EXTREMELY RESPONSIVE ON TIME WORK!! As a brand new investment property owner I knew there would come a day where things would go south, And boy did they. I had an electrical issue that led to me needing a plumber. I was referred to Flow Star Plumbing by a good friend that had previous work done, and was extremely pleased with the outcome. I contacted the owner Kurdel on Friday and he was able to come over within hourā€™s of me calling. He resolved all issues the same day and the price was extremely affordable I was impressed. The very following day another issue arises, completely separate from the previous work that was completed. Kurdel came out on a Saturday morning and immediately identified the issue. He started the work that same day and let me know that he would be back mid week to continue the job and bring to completion by week end. I am sooooo stoked and pleased with the outcome of all that was repaired!! In the future if I ever need a plumber or I can refer to anyone, Flow Star Plumbing is guaranteed at the top of my list!!

    My kitchen sink was leaking so called Flow Star. They got me in the same day which I really appreciated. They ended up having to replace the faucet and everything is good as new. Thanks Flow Star for your fast friendly service!

    My Boiler caught fire during the last cold snap and I asked around to see who I should call for a fix or replacement. One of my friends told me to call Flow Star. I called for an appointment to have a guy come look and he confirmed what I had suspected, that the boiler was toast. Flow Star was punctual, professional, courteous and followed up with great communication. I could not be more pleased with the service or the guys who did the work. When you need work done, call Flow Star. You wont be sorry!

  • Review 61 (2022-10-27 - Rating: 5)

    It was disturbing to discover a burst pipe and corroded/stuck water main valve in the crawlspace on Sunday afternoon. After controlling the leak somewhat, I researched local plumbers and called two: Flow Star and Blakes. Steve from Flow Star answered my call and told me to call back on Monday morning to schedule an appointment. I left a message with Blakes. When I called Steve back on Monday morning, he advised me to call AWWU to shut down the water and once that happened, he could send somebody out. I was shocked that AWWU was able to shut my water off within 30 minutes after I called them! I was even more shocked that Flow Star was able to fix the leaking pipe and replace the water main valve by 2pm that day! Ive found my go-to plumber...I never heard from Blakes.

    When I called Flow Star I got in touch with the owner/plumber Kurdel. I told him the issue I was having and after requesting the brand of my hot water heater, he knew exactly what the problem was and how to fix it. Within a couple hours he was at my home and repairing the issue. While he was at my home, he showed me precisely the problem with the hot water heater, a couple options to fix the issue, and had it completed within an hour. He was easy to converse with, personable, and professional. I will call him again in the future for anything plumbing related!

  • Review 63 (2022-01-10 - Rating: 5)

    We cant say enough good things about our experience with Flow Star! Kurdel was fantastic to work with right out of the gates. Having used to work in construction and property management myself, I have had to work closely with numerous contractors and tradesmen, I can say with confidence that Kurdel is one of the best. We contacted him on a Friday afternoon (I called several contractors and he was the first and turns out only to call me back) He was able to look at the pictures I sent him and give me an estimate over the phone and schedule the service for the very next day. He showed up on time and prepared to get straight to work and knocked out the demo and installation without any issues, he also made the necessary upgrades to get us up to code since our existing unit was 30 years old. Kurdel texted me that night to make sure that things were running smoothly and reminded to to adjust the temperature to our liking. He followed up with me again today (Monday) to make sure that we hadnt run into any issues. Kurdels communication is Top Notch!! We have definitely found our contractor for any future plumbing at our home or business and we will be sure to refer him to all our friends!!

    I dont know where to start because I am beyond GRATEFUL for the whole staff at Flow Star Plumbing Heating. Warn you it might be a bit emotional for me. I will try to make this short. My water heater went out same day my ol man passed, felt like it could not be a worse time to go out. It was after hours so I called Steve the next day who was extremely professional, told him my situation and advised me to contact the Owner Mr. Kurdel. Talking to Mr. Kurdel and immediately felt like family and NOT a business transaction. With the holidays right around the corner he wanted to make sure i had hot water for Christmas. Steve dispatched Tini and installed it the next day!!! Tini on time, super quick, and very knowledgeable at his job. I could go on and on and on. Kurdel takes care of the community, and I just cant express my LOVE for this company. He selected me as one of the people to give back too. Trying to make this short but just wanted to say again that Flow Star Plumbing and Heating LLC is Family.

    We had water from our kitchen sink leaking through the sealing of the downstairs bedroom. Turns out it was a defect during manufacturing of the pipes installed when the house was built. Kurdel was very knowledgeable and professional. He diagnosed the problem right away and got the pipes replaced very quickly with no more leaks. I would highly recommend Flow Star.

    My heat went out in the middle of the night, and I awoke to a freezing house.Flow Star Plumbing and Heating was able to fit me into their schedule on short notice on the day I called.I initially spoke with Steve, who was great. He let me know they were pretty booked out but if they had an opening hed call me back.Shortly after I got a call back, and explained what was going on. He had a technician out to the home in about 30 minutes! Incredible stuff.Tino was the technician I worked with, he was extremely professional and has exceptional customer service skills. He quickly diagnosed my furnace and explained our resolutions.He suggested we think about replacing the furnace soon as its well past its life expectancy, but we could get it up and running by replacing the inducer motor. After calling around to find the part locally, he picked it up and had my furnace up and running in no time.I felt very educated afterwards, and extremely grateful to have a warm house again in less than two hours!I will happily continue doing business with Flow Star for all my plumbing/HVAC needs.
