Best Businesses in New York

Best plumbers ever. Thank you so much Victor! I had no hot water and it was due to the water supply line not feeding into the tank

I had 2 plumbers come in and said it was a bigger issue and a building issue, victor came in and was able to find the issue within 15 mins! He noticed it was a check valve issue and was able to remove it and now my hot water is running!

Prior to calling them - I had another plumber come in and charged me for his work without even fixing the problem. Please do yourself the favor and call these guys they're knowledgeable and honest! Victor was awesome!

Was looking for dependable team to help maintain my main sewer line clear of roots and debris and found them. Both Javier and Peter were very punctual and courteous. They responded to my questions with professionalism and their prices were reasonable for snaking and camera inspection.

The one thing that really did stick out was that they were concerned for the cleanliness of my home. They wanted to make sure that their auger machine did not dirty my floors. They also brought their own shoe covers! Talk about customer centric! But alas I digress. Thanks guys!

Had a clogged kitchen sink drain. Asked for a request from Yelp, response was nearly immediate. I called the number and spoke with Mike (mechanic). He was super nice/helpful even though I'd not gotten the office directly. Said I'd call back when I was sure. Chose them out of the bunch. He was here in an hour and done in 15 minutes. No mess, cleaned up after himself and was, for lack of a better term, very easygoing and positive. Great experience and great results. Adding the number to my contacts for future services.

Tom gave me a very honest and reasonable price for fixing my leaking toilet! He gave me multiple options and didn't try to push when I opted for the lowest cost choice. He was quick, friendly and efficient and I'd definitely use him again. I definitely recommend him for your plumbing needs!

Bruno responded to my message right away and came out within 2 hours to help fix a small leak with an outdoor faucet.  He got the job done right away (for a fair price) and didn't try to upsell me with any costly extras.  Thanks for the great work!

I cannot praise this company enough. We had a shower fixture from actual hell that to replace would have required breaking down a mosaic tile wall. Fixing the shower was so complicated. No matter what the supplier told us and how many parts they sent, it wouldn't work. Rich only charged us for the first visit and came back every time to figure out what the issue was until we finally got to the bottom of it. We were so helpless and many plumbers that came before gave up on us after taking our money. This is a plumbing company with strong values. They don't just come to perform a service but actually think resourcefully about how to resolve issues permanently. The issue with our shower lasted 6 years and we had Rich making visits to our place for 3 months. I highly recommend

My old dishwasher had to be replaced and due to the newer model I was purchasing,I had to update the plumbing under the sink.  I found Chris on Yelp, we spoke on the phone and he suggested I send him a photo of what I had now.  He quoted a price and we set up a date.  Chris did an excellent job and, in fact, I hired him for another job that I needed done.  He's very personable and I was so glad I found him.  I would definitely hire him again should the need arise.  He's the tops.

My bathroom faucet needed to be replaced and they were very efficient and responded to my service request quickly. I would definitely recommend them for any plumbing needs and I would definitely use them again in the future.

It was great working with Donna and Fred. We recently did a oil-gas conversion for our home. It is a long process due to all the paperwork but Donna helped us walk through the process. She is responsive and ready to help, via email or phone. Con edison is difficult to work with but Serve-well team will help you throughout.

I've dealt with many plumbers over the years and most tend to work sloppy.  Igor and his crew were very respectful of my house. They meticulously covered surfaces to protect them before starting their work.  They also showed up on time and completed the work when promised which is also no small feat based on my experience. It's reassuring to deal with such a professional when you have people working in your home. They replaced my old fixtures with a new shower valve but more importantly, Igor tested my water pressure at the main shut off and noticed that it was twice what it should have been.  This would explain why I've had so many issues over the years with fixtures breaking. Not one plumber before him took the time to do this simple test.  That's priceless in my book.

I had an issue with installing a bidet toilet seat because our bathroom setup was irregular. GG Plumbing suggested the part that would fix the issue. This was after I already tried to ask many other plumbing companies for solutions to no avail. I even went to a plumbing supply store but that didn't help either. Thanks to GG Plumbing, I was able to install the toilet seat with minimum cost. Even though I didn't need for GG to come help, his quoted price was also much more reasonable than the other plumbing companies I reached out to.

We recently had an issue with needing a sign-off and he responded immediately.  

He has a master plumber license and that means he can get things done directly with Department of Buildings.  Uptown property owners needing to find a good plumber should seek him out.

Pleasant guy and responded quickly when called so it pains me to say that he was way overpriced for the work done. Don't tell a customer that you can diagnose and fix complicated plumbing problems and you're more qualified than the average plumber who charges 60 bucks to snake a drain and then when it turns out to be a clogged drain that you used a snake to clear charge that same customer $275. That's deceitful and taking advantage.

Update: This company is now harassing me on Yelp. Screenshot uploaded.

Our first interaction was great. They made a speedy appointment and had great reviews. Plumber and his assistant arrived within the window and were very nice. I needed a shower leak sealed, a running and clogging toilet fixed, and another shower head installed. First he insisted there was nothing wrong with my toilet. He said he put paper in, flushed it and it's fine. (This toilet clogs literally every day. The previous tenants had the same problem. I know it's not right.) But he just did an unclogging (which it didn't really need) and went on his way. Then onto the showers, including silicon for the leak -- which I told him I'd already done myself, but sure. Overall they were there for two hours, a third of which was spent sitting on my toilet seat talking to me. Just talking. About contractors and how showers are installed because they recommended I call one about the shower. Despite multiple attempts to end the conversation by saying, Ok. I got it. Thanks for coming! it just went on and on. I know he was being nice. And it would have been a lovely gesture had they not included this chat session in the hourly rate and made me pay for it. But I didn't complain because, again, he was a nice guy and I mistakenly assumed they'd done a good job. No need to get the guy in trouble.

Fast forward a week. I have to call them AGAIN because the toilet has clogged up at least half a dozen times and it's back to running again despite the first plumber's insistence that it was fine. Another plumber arrives and tests it with toilet paper. He said that while at first there was no clogging, he realized he wasn't using the amount of paper a person normally would -- a common mistake, he says. The minute he used a slightly larger amount, instant clog. He suggests that it's the toilet paper. I tell him this is the fourth variety we've used and it doesn't block the toilet upstairs. He says, Oh. Then it's the toilet. You'll need to replace it. I'm fine with this. I tell him to have his company send me a quote. He checks the leaky shower one last time and confirms it needs a contractor -- I wanted a second opinion after the first guy appeared to be wrong about everything else. He mentions knowing the plumber in question and admits he does get rather chatty. He was here for maybe 15 minutes, I signed the paperwork, and he left.

A little later I get the phone call telling me they're charging me approximately $200 for this visit -- a visit that was only necessary because they failed to properly do the job first time. I tell them absolutely not. The first plumber refused to believe there was a problem with the toilet, didn't properly inspect it, and in 1/8 of the time the other guy identified the problem and told me it needs to be replaced. Why am I paying you for the same job twice? Now at this point I'm talking to the owner, who proceeds to fight me for nearly a half hour. Here are some of the winning things he said:

- So you've just been without a toilet for a week? (No. I've just been doing your job and unclogging it repeatedly.)
- Why did I just believe him when he said it needs to be replaced? (Why did I believe YOUR plumber? I don't know. Reasonable expectation that he knows how to do his job?)
- He thinks I'm too excited. (Really? Are you going to call me hysterical next?)
- They did their job. It's not their fault it didn't work. (Great work ethic.)
- Why didn't I refuse to sign the invoice or tell the first guy I wouldn't pay him because he talked so much instead of complaining to the owner? (Mind you, I wasn't asking for a refund for those services. Just stating that maybe after all that, charging me $200 for 15 minutes to fix your own work wasn't the best idea.)

Finally, he starts to understand that I'm not trying to rob him blind, and when I tell him I refuse to use him moving forward and to send just me my invoice, he starts trying to make it better.  My favorite was when he told me he's not going to charge me so he can sleep at night, like he's doing me this huge favor by being a reasonable human being and treating his customer with some amount of consideration. He apologized for upsetting me but after 30 minutes of having EVERYTHING I said be refuted and questioned and essentially having him insinuate that I was trying to put one over on them, I wanted none of it. I wanted my invoice and our business would be done.

Then, as the cherry on the sundae, I get the invoice from them -- the one that I asked include what the plumber said about replacing the toilet and the estimate for it so I can give it to my landlord -- and it just says that the toilet paper is the problem. ARE. YOU. KIDDING. ME. The incompetence is astounding.

I still need to get this toilet replaced but I will absolutely be going elsewhere to do it.

Talk about fast!! I had a toilet leak in my apartment that flooded my floor and refused to stop. I had an event that evening and I needed this handled like yesterday. Waterhouse came out so quick and figured out the issue while I did my makeup in the other room. Before I could take all my hair pins out, they had mopped my floor and got my toilet working in no time. I'm so grateful I was able to leave my apartment and now I wouldn't come back to soaked floors again. I'm so grateful!

What an amazing experience with Bargain Plumbing! Parsim and Shpat were able to replace two appliances in less than an hour! Amazing customer service and will be using them in the future for all of my plumbing and heating needs. Contact them for professional and efficient service, would recommend.

Our bathtub was clogged and Robert got it unclogged fast and neatly. Super kind and nice too. Would recommend

Responsive and easy scheduling. I was able to get a quote right away and pricing was more than fair compared to many other comparing businesses. The job was done quick, well and our toilet and bathroom was left in a clean condition. Thank you!

Fast, great, professional. Allstate came to my house , identified the issue with our sink and fixed it. Price was very reasonable. Highly recommend.

We had an appointment window of 11a to 3p and called repeatedly, someone shows up at 8p.  We called to have a bathroom faucet replace and they wouldn't give any pricing over the phone - said we would get it on site. When the plumber got here, he quoted us $450 and said it was a 30 minute job. This is outrageous pricing for 30 minutes or work (in addition to all of the extra waiting time). We said no way and sent them away.
