Bullseye Home Services
Bio

Originally trading as Leland Plumbing, the Osprey-based company serves Venice, Sarasota, North Port, and surrounding Sarasota and Manatee county communities. Bullseye is BBB Accredited with an A+ rating, having achieved accreditation status in February 2026. The company has accumulated more than 1,338 verified customer reviews at a 4.8-star aggregate rating, and its website cites more than 1,500 five-star reviews across all platforms.

Top Services
- Plumbing Repair and Installation
- Drain Clearing and Sewer Services
- Water Heater Repair and Replacement
- Air Conditioning Maintenance and Repair
- Leak Detection and Pipe Repair
What Sets Them Apart
- Over 1,338 verified reviews at a 4.8-star aggregate rating. This review volume, collected across more than five decades of operation, reflects sustained service quality rather than a single period of strong marketing performance.
- In continuous operation since 1974, making it one of Venice's longest-serving home service companies. Over 50 years of local operation means Bullseye has navigated multiple economic cycles, Florida building code revisions, and post-hurricane recovery periods that test contractor resilience.
- BBB Accredited with an A+ rating. Bureau accreditation requires active commitment to the BBB Standards for Trust, documented complaint resolution, and transparent business practices reviewed on an ongoing basis.
- More than 1,500 five-star customer reviews cited across all platforms. Aggregate five-star counts at this scale indicate a systematically positive customer experience rather than isolated standout jobs.
- Osprey headquarters positions the company for fast Venice dispatch. Located just north of Venice on US-41, Bullseye technicians reach Venice neighborhoods without the extended drive times that affect contractors based in Sarasota proper or further north.
Major League Plumbing & Home Services
Bio
Major League Plumbing & Home Services was founded in 2021 by Ryan Birdsey, a Master Plumber born and raised in Englewood, Florida, with more than 20 years of plumbing field experience. The North Port company serves Venice, Charlotte County, and all of Sarasota County, with a team drawing on 50-plus years of combined plumbing expertise. Major League Plumbing holds a 5.0 Google rating from 416 verified reviewers and is BBB Accredited since April 2022. The company specializes in plumbing, sewer and drain cleaning, water heater service, and water filtration for residential and commercial clients throughout the Venice region. Ryan Birdsey also holds Bradford White and Noritz contractor authorizations for water heater installations.
Top Services
- Drain and Sewer Cleaning
- Water Heater Installation and Repair
- Whole-Home Repiping
- Water Filtration System Installation
- Plumbing Fixture and Appliance Installation
What Sets Them Apart
- 5.0 Google rating from 416 verified reviewers. Sustaining a perfect score across more than 400 Google reviews, where any customer can post publicly, is a stronger credentialing signal than reviews posted only on platforms the company controls.
- BBB Accredited since April 2022, shortly after the company's founding. Pursuing bureau accreditation in the company's first full year of operation demonstrates a proactive commitment to consumer protection standards rather than accreditation pursued as an afterthought.
- Owner Ryan Birdsey is a native of Englewood, FL, with 20-plus years of regional plumbing experience. Local roots and deep field experience translate to familiarity with Venice-area construction types, water quality issues, and the coastal plumbing challenges unique to Sarasota County.
- 50-plus years of combined team experience across the company. A founding owner with two decades of experience who hired additional veterans means the company's field knowledge significantly exceeds what its 2021 founding date alone would suggest.
- Bradford White and Noritz authorized contractor status. Factory-direct authorization on two major water heater brands enables Major League to activate full manufacturer warranties, a benefit that unlicensed or unauthorized installations cannot provide to homeowners.
Citrus Plumbing of Venice
Bio
Citrus Plumbing of Venice has served the Venice community since 1990, establishing itself as one of the city's most enduring locally headquartered plumbing contractors. The company is BBB Accredited since June 2006, one of the earliest Venice-area plumbing firms to achieve that standing. Citrus Plumbing holds a 4.7-star Trustindex composite from more than 90 verified clients and a 5.0 rating on Yellow Pages. The Venice office also operates a Kitchen and Bath Gallery in Regency Square Plaza, where clients can view fixture options in a showroom setting before committing to remodel work. The company serves Venice, Sarasota, North Port, Nokomis, Osprey, and Englewood with a full menu of residential and commercial plumbing services.
Top Services
- Drain Cleaning and Sewer Jetting
- Water Heater Installation and Repair
- Sewer Line Camera Inspection
- Kitchen and Bathroom Remodel Plumbing
- Backflow Testing and Certification
What Sets Them Apart
- Venice-headquartered since 1990, the longest-operating local plumbing company on this list. More than 35 years of Venice-based operation means Citrus Plumbing has served multiple generations of homeowners and built relationships with local builders, inspectors, and suppliers that newer companies have not had time to develop.
- BBB Accredited since June 2006, the longest BBB standing of any Venice plumbing company here. Nearly two decades of continuous BBB accreditation reflects a sustained track record of consumer protection practices, not a status newly acquired for marketing purposes.
- On-site Kitchen and Bath Gallery for fixture selection before remodel work begins. A physical showroom is a significant differentiator, enabling homeowners to see and touch actual fixtures, compare finishes, and make informed selections before any materials are ordered or walls are opened.
- 4.7-star Trustindex composite from more than 90 verified clients. Trustindex aggregates reviews from multiple platforms and weights them by recency, providing a composite score that reflects current service performance rather than legacy reviews from years past.
- Certified Backflow Technician on staff. Backflow testing and certification require a licensed specialist and is mandatory under Florida law for many residential and commercial properties. Having a certified tech in-house means no subcontractor referral delay for compliance-driven service requests.
Pipedex Plumbing & Drains
Bio
Pipedex Plumbing & Drains is a Christian, family-owned plumbing and drain services company founded in January 2023 and headquartered in Port Charlotte, serving Venice, Sarasota County, and all of Charlotte County. Managers Sergey Girich and Aleksandr Goretskiy bring more than 30 years of combined owner experience in residential and commercial plumbing. Pipedex has earned a 4.9 Google rating and is BBB registered. The company operates as a sister company to a Pipedex location in South Carolina, enabling shared best practices across two state markets. Pipedex focuses on residential service and commercial drain solutions, with expertise in clog removal, sewer repairs, water heaters, and emergency plumbing calls throughout the Venice service area.
Top Services
- Drain Cleaning and Clog Removal
- Water Heater Repair and Installation
- Sewer Line Repair and Replacement
- Emergency Plumbing Repairs
- Commercial Plumbing Services
What Sets Them Apart
- 4.9 Google rating, the highest on this list among companies with multiple reviews. A 4.9 composite score indicates near-universal satisfaction across all reviewed service calls, a standard that is difficult to sustain even for companies with excellent overall service cultures.
- 30-plus years of combined owner experience behind a company founded in 2023. Girich and Goretskiy founded Pipedex after accumulating decades of field expertise, meaning clients benefit from seasoned judgment despite the company's recent establishment date.
- Christian, family-owned business operating on stated values of integrity and reliability. A values-based business identity carries operational implications: the owners are personally accountable for every job and have non-financial reasons to maintain their reputation beyond revenue alone.
- Multi-state operation spanning Florida and South Carolina with shared best practices. Cross-state operational experience exposes Pipedex management to diverse regulatory environments and service scenarios, informing better protocols than single-market operators typically develop.
- Port Charlotte base provides fast Venice access along US-41 and I-75 corridors. Port Charlotte's proximity to Venice via established highway routes ensures dispatch times competitive with North Port-based operators, without the congestion associated with Sarasota-proper staging locations.
Next Level Plumbing
Bio
Next Level Plumbing is a Sarasota-based residential plumbing specialist founded in 2017 and serving Venice, Bradenton, North Port, Parrish, and the greater Sarasota County market. The company is BBB Accredited with an A+ rating since September 2022 and holds a 5.0 rating on Angi from verified clients. Next Level Plumbing has accumulated more than 500 five-star customer reviews and positions itself as a residential-only contractor, concentrating all resources on single-family and multi-family home plumbing rather than splitting capacity with commercial accounts. The company's service menu covers backflow repair, drain cleaning, hydro-jetting, sewer line service, water heater installation, and full emergency plumbing response for Venice-area homeowners.
Top Services
- Drain Cleaning and Hydro-Jetting
- Water Heater Repair and Replacement
- Whole-Home Repiping
- Sewer Line Repair and Replacement
- Backflow Repair and Testing
What Sets Them Apart
- Over 500 five-star reviews across platforms, including a 5.0 Angi rating from verified clients. Five-hundred-plus five-star reviews represents one of the highest verified review counts among independent plumbing contractors in the Venice market.
- BBB Accredited with an A+ rating since September 2022. Accreditation pursued in the company's fifth year demonstrates that A+ standing was earned through documented track record rather than applied for speculatively at founding.
- Residential-only focus keeps commercial scheduling from displacing homeowner appointments. Contractors serving both residential and commercial accounts frequently prioritize larger commercial contracts during peak periods. Next Level's residential-only model eliminates this conflict for Venice homeowners.
- Founded in 2017 with steady growth to 500-plus verified five-star reviews in under eight years. Organic review accumulation at this rate, without purchased or incentivized reviews, reflects genuine repeat business and referral activity from satisfied Venice and Sarasota county clients.
- Full emergency plumbing response available for Venice-area residents. Emergency availability combined with A+ BBB accreditation provides double assurance that after-hours dispatch connects homeowners with a vetted, accountable contractor rather than an unverified emergency referral.
TitanZ Plumbing & AC
Bio
TitanZ Plumbing & AC is a family-owned plumbing and air conditioning contractor serving Venice, North Port, Port Charlotte, Punta Gorda, and surrounding Southwest Florida communities since 2007. The company was started as a family business, with family members contributing to the naming and early growth of the operation. TitanZ holds Florida Certified Plumbing Contractor license CFC1427407 and has accumulated 611 Google reviews from verified Venice-area and Charlotte County clients. The company provides 24/7 emergency plumbing response and full HVAC service, maintenance, and installation, positioning it as a one-stop home services contractor for homeowners seeking to consolidate plumbing and cooling vendor relationships under a single provider.
Top Services
- Household Plumbing Repair and Installation
- Drain Cleaning and Clog Removal
- Water Heater Repair and Replacement
- Air Conditioning Installation and Repair
- Indoor Air Quality Services
What Sets Them Apart
- 611 Google reviews accumulated since 2007, one of the highest review counts among Venice-serving plumbers. Google review volume at this scale reflects sustained customer engagement over 18-plus years of service, not a short-term review campaign.
- Family-owned and operated since founding, with family involvement from day one. Family business ownership structures typically produce stronger owner accountability on every job, since the company's reputation is personal rather than institutional.
- Florida Certified Plumbing Contractor license CFC1427407 with active standing through 2026. Active state certification confirms ongoing compliance with Florida DBPR continuing education, insurance, and financial responsibility requirements.
- 24/7 emergency plumbing dispatch for Venice and Charlotte County residents. Round-the-clock availability backed by 18-plus years of regional operation means TitanZ has responded to emergencies under the most demanding conditions, including post-hurricane service backlogs.
- Combined plumbing and HVAC licensing eliminates the need for two separate contractors. Venice homeowners with simultaneous plumbing and cooling issues, such as a water heater leak near an air handler, can resolve both with a single TitanZ service call rather than coordinating separate providers.
Hill & Hill Plumbing
Bio
Hill & Hill Plumbing has served Venice and surrounding communities since 1952, making it the oldest continuously operating plumbing company headquartered in Venice, Florida. Led by Seth Hill, who holds a Florida Certified Plumbing Contractor license, the company has served more than seven decades of Venice homeowners and commercial property owners across Venice, Osprey, Nokomis, and Sarasota County. Hill & Hill carries an A+ BBB rating and a 4.5 Google score from verified local clients.

Top Services
- Drain Cleaning and Leak Repair
- Water Heater Replacement
- Whole-Home Repiping
- Kitchen and Bathroom Plumbing Remodels
- Sewer Line Video Inspection and Repair
What Sets Them Apart
- In continuous operation since 1952, the oldest Venice-headquartered plumbing company on this list. Over 70 years of Venice-based service represents a depth of community rootedness and local infrastructure knowledge that no company founded in the past three decades can replicate.
- Led by Seth Hill, a Florida Certified Plumbing Contractor with generational family expertise. Family-to-family business continuity brings accumulated knowledge about Venice's aging residential plumbing systems, local building codes, and soil conditions that shape pipe performance over decades.
- A+ BBB rating and Venice Area Chamber of Commerce membership. Dual civic affiliations signal accountability to both consumer protection and local business community standards, reinforcing Hill and Hill's position as a genuine Venice civic institution.
- Kitchen and Bath Creations division expands remodeling capability beyond standard plumbing work. Homeowners planning full kitchen or bathroom renovations can engage Hill and Hill for both the rough-in plumbing and the finish fixture work, reducing the number of vendors required to complete a full remodel.
- 4.5 Google rating with a 4.9 Facebook recommendation score from local Venice clients. Strong dual-platform ratings from the actual Venice community, rather than regional customers who primarily know the company from directory listings, reflect genuine neighborhood trust built over multiple generations.
Plumber John
Bio
Plumber John, Inc. is a North Venice plumbing company incorporated in April 2006 and led by owner-operator John Boudreault, who began his career in 1987 under an apprenticeship program with Rhodes Plumbing in Marathon, Florida, and earned his journeyman's license in 1997. The company holds a BBB A+ rating and is fully licensed under Florida DBPR requirements. Plumber John serves the Venice, North Venice, Osprey, and surrounding Sarasota County communities with a specialty in residential and light commercial plumbing including utility hookups, repiping, sewer video inspection, backflow certification, and water heater service. The company is consistently recommended on the Venice-area Nextdoor community for prompt response and professional workmanship.
Top Services
- Sewer Video Inspection
- Backflow Testing and Certification
- Whole-Home Repiping
- Water Heater Repair and Replacement
- Utility Hookup and Connection Services
What Sets Them Apart
- Owner John Boudreault has 38-plus years of plumbing experience, beginning in 1987. Few owner-operators in the Venice market bring this depth of hands-on history, which translates to diagnostic accuracy and confidence in unusual or difficult plumbing scenarios.
- North Venice address puts the company within the city's residential core. A North Venice physical address is the closest headquarters proximity to Venice neighborhoods available on this list, ensuring consistently fast dispatch without the commute overhead of Sarasota-based or Port Charlotte-based competitors.
- BBB A+ rating held since the company's 2006 founding. Approximately 19 consecutive years of A+ standing covers a period that includes the 2008-2009 recession, multiple hurricane seasons, and major regional construction fluctuations, all without a sustained BBB complaints record.
- Backflow certification specialty serving Venice's mandatory testing requirements. Florida law requires annual backflow testing for many residential and commercial properties. Having a backflow-certified specialist on staff means compliance calls are handled immediately rather than referred to a subcontractor.
- Nextdoor Venice community recognition from verified neighbors. Nextdoor recommendations are made by named, address-verified residents, making them among the most geographically specific and locally trusted form of peer referral available to Venice homeowners.
Johnson & Sons Plumbing
Bio
Johnson & Sons Plumbing is a family-owned residential plumbing company based in Sarasota that serves Venice, Bradenton, and the surrounding Sarasota County market. The company holds Florida Certified Plumbing Contractor license CFC1432439 and maintains a BBB business profile in good standing. Johnson and Sons focuses on residential customers, offering direct communication with licensed technicians on every service call. The company emphasizes quality workmanship and fair pricing across its residential plumbing menu, which includes drain cleaning, water heater service, fixture installation, repiping, and leak detection. Johnson and Sons Plumbing operates Monday through Saturday to accommodate Venice-area homeowner scheduling needs.
Top Services
- Drain Cleaning and Sewer Services
- Water Heater Installation and Repair
- Fixture Installation and Replacement
- Whole-Home Repiping
- Leak Detection and Repair
What Sets Them Apart
- Florida Certified Plumbing Contractor license CFC1432439 with active standing through 2026. State certification requires documented examination performance and financial responsibility, confirming that Johnson and Sons meets the highest tier of Florida contractor credentialing.
- Family-owned business with direct technician-to-homeowner communication on every job. Family ownership ensures personal accountability that corporate or franchise plumbing operations cannot replicate, particularly important for Venice homeowners who prefer knowing who is in their home.
- 4.8-star Yelp rating from Venice and Sarasota area clients. Yelp's identity and activity filtering algorithm reduces the influence of suspicious reviews, making a strong Yelp composite score a meaningful quality signal for homeowners researching Venice plumbers.
- Residential-only service model concentrates resources on homeowner service quality. Without commercial account obligations pulling scheduling priority, Johnson and Sons can offer more predictable appointment windows and consistent technician assignment to Venice residential clients.
- Monday through Saturday availability without emergency-only Saturday surcharges. Weekend scheduling at standard rates removes the financial penalty that many Venice homeowners encounter when plumbing issues arise on Friday nights or Saturday mornings.
Master Plumbers & Septic
Bio
Master Plumbers & Septic is a Venice-headquartered plumbing and septic services company with more than 30 years of experience serving residential and commercial customers in Sarasota County and surrounding communities. The company is locally owned and staffed by licensed master plumbers with deep familiarity with Venice's residential plumbing infrastructure and the area's mix of municipal sewer and private septic systems. Master Plumbers maintains a BBB business profile and employs more than 20 staff members, giving the company the capacity to handle high-demand periods without extended scheduling delays. The Venice office location places the company within walking distance of many historic Venice neighborhoods, enabling fast dispatch to calls across the city's established residential core.
Top Services
- Residential Plumbing Repairs
- Septic System Service and Repair
- Sewer Line Cleaning and Replacement
- Water Heater Installation and Service
- Drain Cleaning and Clog Removal
What Sets Them Apart
- Dual plumbing and septic licensing covering both sewer and septic systems in Venice. Venice and surrounding Sarasota County communities include properties on both municipal sewer and private septic systems. Master Plumbers can service either system, eliminating the need to source a separate septic contractor for properties off the municipal grid.
- More than 30 years of experience in Sarasota County plumbing and septic service. Three decades of Venice-area field experience translates to accumulated knowledge about local soil composition, water table conditions, and the older plumbing systems present in Venice's 1950s-through-1980s residential neighborhoods.
- Venice-headquartered at 239 Center Court, within the residential core of the city. A Venice address means technicians launch from inside the city rather than commuting in from North Port or Sarasota, providing faster on-site arrival for time-sensitive plumbing and septic emergencies.
- 20-plus staff members enable capacity for high-volume demand periods. A team of 20 ensures that post-storm surges, seasonal peak demand, and simultaneous emergency calls across Venice neighborhoods do not create multi-day scheduling backlogs for waiting homeowners.
- Master Plumber credentials on staff at the ownership and technician levels. Master Plumber licensing requires documented examination competency beyond journeyman status. Companies whose senior staff hold master credentials offer a higher baseline of technical expertise on complex diagnostic and repair scenarios.
