Best Businesses in New York, NY

I HIGHLY recommend Main Man. We had a sprinkler company in to turn on our system. They broke the valve which turns the water off and on and then high tailed it out of here when they realized that the also couldn't locate the main water valve in the street to turn the water off. We called a few people and one company who has multiple yelp positive reviews said we would need to open up the street and change all the pipes as well as replacing the main pipe in the house. They said they would have to rip up our blue stone and would not be responsible for any damages. They also said it would take 2 days and cost nearly $14,000. We called Scott at Main Man and he called us immediately. He came in SAVED the day. He did his homework and knew exactly where the main outside valve was. He told us the pipes outside were fine and did not need replacing. He turned off the water, changed the inside pipe and was out of here in 4 hours for less then  half of what the other company quoted us. If you want someone who is super honest, fast and a PRO. . Call Scott . .

I had a leak in the basement from a broken pipe. Responded quickly to request for a quote. Showed up and did a great job for a fair price. Highly recommend to anyone in need of plumbing service

Find another, more professional plumber. Sadly, they don't respect your time. I used them once before and they were fine. Tried a second time and had a morning appointment scheduled far out in advance. I was told they had a bigger job so they needed to move me to the end of the day. I obliged and rearranged my schedule. Was given a window of 4-7pm. Called to confirm at almost 6pm and was told they needed to push me again until between 7 and 8pm. Got the runaround -- and he said, what do you want me to do? Come another day? Star Cities, I've already rearranged my schedule for you. I have a job that I left early to meet YOUR schedule. Don't ask me to do it again. You wasted my time. Never again.

Building hired Eddie for a job to replace several water heaters and redo some venting and he was great.  It was a nice big job and he got paid and his guys did a good job...everyone's happy.

I call him back a couple of months later to come turn on a furnace in the same building.  Eddie was all friendly and says no problem, I'll be on it.  But nada, 1 week, i made a call almost each day to find out if he got to it yet and he said he would.  enough was enough, i straight up said why you give me the run around when you can't commit.  he then made an excuse i get 40-50 calls and it's 70 degree (when i was sub 60), blah blah.  Ok, i get it, it was a small job and i might be sensitive, but not once did Eddie call back to say he can't make it.  Each time it was me following up and each time he tried to play nice guy by saying he was on it, when he knew he didn't have the time.  Just be straight up man, i would have been ok if you were too busy.

Mike saved us from a potential disaster! We had a leaking water heater, and no prior experience with anything of this magnitude since we bought an older home. Not knowing who to call and being skeptical of someone taking advantage, we decided to call Mike at Austin Plumbing and Heating. He showed up ready to work right away. He was quick, efficient, professional, and fair. He educated us and wasted no time in getting our new water heater up and running. We highly recommend him. Don't hesitate and trust Mike!

Had a great experience with Pete from Platinum.  Gave a fair estimate and stuck to it. He was there on time and did a great job! Was very pleasant and friendly would absolutely recommend.  Already have.

My hot water heater had a leak from both incoming and outgoing pipes and needed a help. Guillermo was very prompt and gave me clear information about the issue. He was able come 1 hr earlier than the scheduled time, fixed the problem in about an hour. Maximo team is highly recommended.

Had a bolier issue and have been unhappy with the last, oh, ten plumbers we've used.   Asked around the neighborhood and everyone's response was Don't know, but if you find a good one give me their number!   I ended up getting Downtown's recommendation from a contractor who I trust, and my search is over. I was 80% sure  I didn't need anything replaced and they didn't try to throw expensive solutions out before they looked closely (been there too many times) or have even a hint of upsell during the call (ditto).  They knew what they were doing, solved the problem for a price I was happy to pay, and I was back in business.   Domenic has a great manner and is an excellent communicator.  Everything, from phone calls to figure when they could come to doing the job and filling me in on what I had going on was handled professionally and to the satisfaction of anyone's standards.  

Will definitely be using them from now on.

I have used Colin Lee for a number of plumbing issues in my apartment. He replaced a faucet in my bathtub and in my kitchen sink and he also fixed my toilet. Colin is very responsible, very responsive and great to work with. He gives an honest assessment and his prices are great. I highly recommend him.

Excellent service ! The men are efficient , very professional , quick ,  thorough , polite . My plumbing issue was resolved beautifully . I've used this company prior to this problem and will continue to do so with any / all future plumbing troubles I'm sure to encounter . Hats off to James Bond & St Michael !

He might be ok for basic projects but he was terrible for us.

First, the quality of the work was only so so at best. They were supposed to do things like sand and repaint the original shutters in our house and they did a pretty terrible job to the point where it may make more sense to just replace them.

Second, he spent a lot of time asking about a second, bigger job we had rather than focusing on doing good work on the first one. If he had spent more time on the first project, maybe we would have given him the second project.

Third, he lost the key to our back door and took away doorknobs we had bought. When we told him it was gone he said his workers never saw it and it wasn't him. Then we showed him photos that the key was there when they started and gone after they worked. Suddenly his workers remembered throwing it on the floor under a pile of bags and magically they found the doorknob, after arguing with us it couldn't be them.

Fourth, he never sent us back the contract that he was supposed to sign (or provide receipts) and then he decided he wanted more money so left on a Friday--taking all of his tools--when he was supposed to return on Monday. We didn't hear from him until Tuesday night when he started arguing with us about more money. He said he was working in New Jersey, but that's not our problem and he needs to at least tell us if he will not be coming back for several days.

If you want to end up on Yelp complaining about this guy or arguing with him in a public forum, feel free to try your luck. It wasn't worth my time.

I contacted Friedman Irwin & Son Inc to replace a couple of hoses in my apartment.
They came on time and they were very friendly. Overall I am very happy with the service provided.

Best service Ive ever had from a business.I had a problem with the DEP not accepting my backflow test results due to the initial test being filled out incorrectly by a Build it Back architect,Tom and his staff did all the legwork contacting all the parties involved and rectified the situation.They saved me a lot of money in fines,And also saved me from having to hire another architect.They asked for nothing in return,even though they spent alot of time and energy on my case.

Best supply house in queens . Almost always have what I need. Prices are very competitive with other supply houses . The help at the front counter is exceptional . Very knowledgeable staff . I don't go anywhere else but Dj plumbing supply . I'll go out of my way to get material there . Highly recommend using this supply house for plumbers and homeowners

Oscar from Racso is amazing. Finding a good HVAC person is so challenging but I'm so happy that i found these guys. I had THREE other HVAC guys TRY to fix my heating system and every person said something different was wrong and NOBODY fixed it until I called Oscar.

These guys are the real deal. Prices are fair, they were able to get parts and fix within a week from me calling, and I finally have heat again!

Thank you Racso

This was the best service I ever got while being a homeowner! Fast and reasonable service I will definitely call them for any of my plumbing issues!

Called Cheap Johns night after calling around for a main line flood on a Sunday night! Not even an hour passed between me calling them and them arriving and fixing the issue. Eric was great. Wouldn't think of calling anyone else.

Bought a portable dishwasher, and the device that connects to the sink didn't seem to fit my sink. I went to AE on the recommendation of a local hardware store that wasn't able to help me out.

Turns out, I wasn't doing it the right way and it did fit. They helped me out free of charge, despite the fact that I was a retail client instead of a contractor, who seem to be their typical customers. I appreciated the honesty and quick service!
