Wow. I don't remember the last time a called a plumber and didn't bang my head on the door after closing it. Bob is awesome.
Backstory: I first got a reference from my sister for her plumber. When he heard that I lived in a high rise downtown he was relatively snarky about it. As he was hemming and hawing about what a pain in his butt it is to park in my neighborhood (YAWN! yes, that was his reason for passing up the job), I remembered he had also passed on a previous job because he didn't like the make of my refrigerator. I'll make sure to consider him the next time I'm appliance shopping.
So I Yelp'd a new plumber and thought the reviews of Bob sounded great. He returned my call- on a HOLIDAY evening, no less. And he made himself immediately available the next morning.
My sink, which had ruined my weekend, was fixed a mere $75 later. He also fixed the hot water on my kitchen sink, which I hadn't noticed was a problem. For $75 total. That's right, folks, DOUBLE DIGITS.
As I handed him the check I knew I'd go running to my computer to spread the word, and here I am. I know, I can't believe I'm so excited either.
Friendly, fast, responsive, economical. This guy is awesome.
