Evie is AMAZING. Thorough. Punctual. Great communication. Explains everything. Couldn't give higher praise. She is the plumber we've been looking for for years.
James Columbus, OH
We were very pleased with her work that she did for us. She is very friendly and polite. What really made me respect her is that she was going to be a little late because of a flat tire and she had the decency to call us to let us know. Not many people would do that. I will give her number to anyone that needed a plumber.

Katy Columbus, OH
“Friendly, hardworking, fast, thorough, affordable. They beat the breaks off another quote I got from a neighbor referral. They got me a quote within 20 minutes of my call and installed next business day from my decision. Greg is super friendly, and Kevin is a no nonsense installer. Thanks so much!

Evangelynn did a great job of getting my kitchen sink clogging fixed. She also went above of what was expected to get the additional issue fixed for me.
Greg Worthington, Oh
Shorty’s plumbing was right on time & did an amazing job with an installation of a new toilet. Price was very good and service was excellent. Will not hesitate to call upon them for future plumbing services.
Anna Columbus, OH
Shorty's plumbing went above and beyond in fixing an issue I was having. The communication was excellent and the service call was exactly what was promised. I would not hesitate to use Shorty's again and highly recommend them. My service call with Shorty's was after a failed visit by one of the "big" companies that left me with a big bill and the problem not resolved.

Things Columbus Homeowners Should Know About Their Plumbing:
- Columbus sits on clay-heavy soil that shifts seasonally, putting stress on water and sewer lines — especially in homes built before 1980.
- Central Ohio is known for moderately hard to very hard water, which causes scale buildup in water heaters and pipes over time. A water softener can extend appliance life significantly.
- Older Columbus neighborhoods like German Village, Clintonville, and Franklinton often have aging galvanized or cast iron pipes that benefit from inspection and repiping.
- Columbus basements are highly susceptible to flooding during spring snowmelt and summer storms — a properly installed sump pump with battery backup is essential protection.
- The City of Columbus requires licensed plumbers for most water and gas line work — hiring unlicensed contractors can void your homeowner's insurance.
