Best Businesses in New York

With these recent very heavy rains my backyard drain was moving incredibly slow and needed professional attention. I initially contacted 49.99 drain service and had a terrible customer service experience over the phone and will never use them again. I then contacted Roto Rooter and they came to my house looked at the drain and gave me a price of $385 plus tax!!!! I said no thanks! I turned to yelp and found so many glowing reviews about original
718. I  called  them after 9 am today (Saturday). Michael the owner answered. He asked me about my problem and quoted me a price of 100 dollars! He sent someone over that morning after 11 am!!! Incredibly competent and polite technician took care of my problem! Thank you for polite, efficient, swift and affordable service!!!  I will definitely use again and recommend to my neighbors as well!!

Today was the second time I used this company's services. Excellent work and fair pricing.  They stick to their quote range, do good quality work without cutting corners and are very pleasant to deal with.  You won't be disappointed- give them a call!

I called Mike of thesewerguyinc.com aka L & C Sewers and Drains late in the morning a couple of days ago. I had already hired two different plumbers who had tried and failed to clear a sewage line from a kitchen sink, and dealt with two other plumbers who strung me along and then dropped me before ever showing up so I was getting pretty stressed out.  Mike and I talked briefly about the problem and he told me he'd get someone over there in the early afternoon, and that he felt confident that his guy Giovanni would succeed where others had failed.  Because of some challenges his guy had at the first job, he ended up coming later than expected, but there was pretty good communication, so it wasn't such a big deal. Mike ended up coming with the other guy Giovanni and with an arsenal of plumbing snakes, cameras, and other tools to get the job done. After a couple of unsuccessful first attempts to clear the line, he told me that he was the best person for the job because he was committed to figuring out a solution, and that he wouldn't give up until he succeeded. After four false starts with other plumbers, I loved hearing that!  He suggested several possible last resort measures he could take but ended up going with something much less costly and that didn't require opening any walls. He charged me a reasonable fee, was very pleasant to deal with, and cleaned up well before he left. I recommend this business 100%. I feel so glad to have found them.

Today the hot water heater blew its connection from the top of the hot water heater.  Hot water was flooding my basement.  I thought I would need to replace the whole hot water heater.  Based on the reviews on Yelp, I called Tom's Plumbing & Heating Services.  Justin picked up and ask me to send him some photos.  He said he would be there within an hour and quoted me a price.  He fixed the problems within minutes.  Installed a new connection, check to make the pilot light was on and my hot water heater is working again.  These guys are very good and I would definitely use them again and would recommend to my friends.

We had an issue with a clogged main pipe and secondary pipe. I asked for a quote from several different plumbers but I liked that Bruno was available ASAP and he was the only one who gave me an estimate. He came by the house and wore a mask during the entire visit. He was great at explaining the problem and acknowledged that he didn't have the big snake to unclog the pipes and would have to come back. It was a little disappointing that he charged $100 more per pipe because he would have to come the next day and bring the pipe, but when we did, he brought additional team members to help with the issue so it seems justified. He spent about an hour or so with the job and we're satisfied with the job because of his knowledge and patience. Also he didn't charge us for the first day because he knew he hadn't fix anything, but overall we're grateful for his service.

Professional, kind, and honest!  John is amazing helpful and knowledgeable.

I live in the village - My neighbors below have been complaining about a leak for the past year of living above them. I have no idea where the leak was coming from because we were dry in my Apt. The people my landlord always sent NEVER got the job done right, claiming it was the shower?!. After growing tired of constant complaints and disturbances I took matters into my own hands and called Hub plumbing. The entire time the leak was coming from the sink NOT the shower.  Hub plumbing fixed  the problem for a fair price- and ever since my life has been free of complaints from down below.

Thank you yelp, and especially, THANK YOU HUB PLUMBING :) I will never call another plumber.

My plunger handle broke hours before my guests were to arrive. I was able to get it fixed within hours. The repair person was very professional. The price was better than all the other plumbing places that bid on my order.

Found Top Pro Plumbing via yelp.  I needed a pipe in the basement fixed that had developed a leak.  Benny responded very quickly on yelp.  We set up a time to meet and he came and gave me a free estimate.  It was fair and very reasonable so we set up to do the work the next day.   Benny called and showed up on time and the pipe was changed quickly with no surprises.  I am setting up an appointment now for other plumbing work that needed to be done that I had been putting off.  Thanks, Benny!

I am giving 5 stars to Serve-Well because of the great service and customer service that I received.  There are a lot of scammers out there these days and in my opinion,  Serve-Well is the last of a dying breed.  Honest, straightforward and fair.

Had a dishwasher leak. Needed to remove and replace it.
Called Watermac made an appointment and they came the next day.  

Justin R did a great job.

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.

What a life saver !!! Amazing work !!!! Was on time, explained what had to be done. Don't think about it twice and call MkC plumbing services !!!

As I sat in a hair salon waiting for my wife to be done I observed a plumber greet an employee with a courtesy not often seen. He was clean and unobtrusive as he did his job without intruding on customers. The respect and quality of work, especially professionalism,  is what will prompt me to request Stratos for any needs that may arise in my houses.

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!

Great company.  I need a gas grill hooked up for a client.  They came first to do an evaluation and an estimate.   Once they scheduled, they were on time.  They also corrected the existing piping.   They will be my go-to guys for any more work going forward!

1st time customer.. them on Yelp.   My basement toilet was clogged on a Saturday early evening.   It was an Airbnb so I wanted to get it fixed ASAP.   I made five different calls and rusty sewer was the first to get back to me and give me a reasonable time that they could arrive.   Robert arrived 20 minutes earlier than the time given.   I've had guests flush wipes  down the drain before, so I knew exactly what the issue was.  We were able to clear the line in about 40 minutes.   Robert helped me clean the apartment when the job was done.  This is the fourth time I've had my lines cleared from wipes being flush down.  Theirs is the Best price I've paid yet and it was a Saturday.   I will be scheduling an appointment with them after my guest leave for a major air flush.    Definitely putting these guys in my contact list.

ESP did a great job of fixing a stubborn clog under my kitchen sink. They were efficient and friendly, and left the area squeaky clean (it was already messy from my prior failed attempts to DIY this job). I'd happily use their services for future plumbing ​maintenance and repairs.

Very nice and effective, got the problem found in a minute and solved in less than 15.
I can only recommend his plumbing services.

Unethical, incompetent plumber and then a defensive supervisor when I called to relay the disastrous estimate experience,
.. it's NYC you can find a plumber elsewhere.
