Kansas City Families on Hollis & Sons
Hollis & Sons has plumbed for our family across two houses and twenty years. Old Mr. Hollis, then his son, now the grandson — same honesty, same fair prices, same care. They're the plumber you trust like family.
Water heater went out over the holidays. They came out the same day, no holiday markup, and had us in hot water by dinner. Forty years in business and they still answer the phone themselves. Rare these days.
They repaired an old cast-iron drain line the right way instead of pushing a full replacement. Explained my options honestly, charged a fair price, and cleaned up after. That's why this family's been in business for decades.
