Question for anyone who lives in Madison/Anson area (Skowhegan: residential, retired)

[angelo129]

Does anyone know of a reliable plumber who does residential work around the Madison/Anson area? Norridgewock? Even Skowhegan? We just need someone to call for the occasional minor leaking pipe or toilet tank around the house. Everyone we've found so far does only commercial and/or doesn't want to come this far. A suggestion would be greatly appreciated. We've lived in this area for a little over a year and love it here but have had real trouble finding people to do things like painting, minor repairs, lawn mowing, etc. Neighbors are pretty self sufficient and able to do most repairs themselves (we're retired and disabled so limited in what we can do) so they have few suggestions for us as far as hiring someone. When we ask, someone usually offers to do whatever it is for us (for free) which is kind and loving, but we don't want to take advantage of our neighbors or become a burden to them. We want to pay our way and develop a list of people who can do the work, but not having a lot of luck so far.
