Moluf’s

Molufs:
I renovated a 60 year old house in Mount Pleasant, SC that had been decimated by termites, not to mention it needed to have all of the plumbing replaced. I went to Molufs because they are local. Ferguson is probably a good company, but they are too big and the service is nothing like it is at Molufs (at least that’s what I had heard) They are the best and they are very reasonably priced. Their customer service is impeccable. They had most things in stock and what they had to order they stored for me for weeks until I needed it. I bought almost everything new, but I had an old claw foot tub and two old sinks that we had to find hardware for. This can be a very difficult thing to do on your own for all of you who love the internet. I equate it to using a travel agent. I can book a work trip to California in 30 minutes or I can do it myself in 2 hours and risk flying to the wrong airport. Molufs is in the business of preventing headaches and they do it very well. The are friendly, competent and efficient.
I used Lisa Cartin and she is amazing to work with. Renovating a 60 year old house has it’s on unique set of issues, where plumbing is involved, and Lisa is magic. She helped guide me through the process and was patient with me. I had a good idea of what I wanted and she respected that and showed me the things I would want to see. She did voice her opinion but she did it in a very friendly (but I know what I’m doing) manor. She provided my contractor with a Spec book (that I didn’t even have to ask for). This made the entire process, from the moment I set foot in Molufs to the end of renovation, seamless. It was the most FUN I had during the entire renovation.
Things to note:
Molufs is a popular place for a good reason so make an appointment. Lisa is very busy, but when you make an appointment she’s all yours. Patience is a virtue in all aspects of building /​renovation and plumbing is no different. Molufs is great! But that doesn’t mean it doesn’t take time. There are a lot of decisions to be made with plumbing, especially when you are doing an entire house. Have an idea of the style/​look you want before you walk in. Be prepared to change your mind when the hardware you like most won’t fit the sink you like the most. Molufs gets great discounts and they eliminate the hassle and the mistakes. So keep that in mind before you read a blog and try and buy a faucet on amazon for a 100 year old tub.
Good look and enjoy it!
