Best Businesses in New York

Quick friendly professional- took care of a seeer backup in the kick of time. Office was professional plumber was great and explained everything. Recommend.

Safeway Sewer & Drain Cleaning is the company for you.  Javier and Peter are fantastic, solution-oriented professionals who truly care about their customers.  In addition, they charged 40% LESS than Roto-Rooter Plumbing.  I cannot say enough about Safeway Sewer... if you need professional plumbing services, want fair prices, and a team who will treat you and your home with the utmost respect, then call Safeway Sewers!

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 was super responsive and fixed our clog super quickly. He was also just very helpful and kind in terms of advice on how to avoid the problem in the future...highly recommend and will definitely use again!

The shutoff valve to our outdoor hose line was faulty, and water was leaking through at a steady stream. With cold weather incoming, they managed to come out the next day and replace the valve for a reasonable price. Professional and worked quickly, really appreciated it especially given the timing urgency. Would definitely recommend.

I'm giving HUB one star. I would give fewer stars if I could. HUB repaired a leak under my kitchen sink last month. Three weeks later, my co-op board requested access to my apartment to address a plumbing issue with a neighboring apartment. When the new plumber took a look under my sink, he told me I had a leak. I told him I had the leak repaired three weeks earlier and he did not believe the repair was done by a professional plumber. He then proceeded to remove HUB's work with his hands - no tools required. He put the sink back together so it didn't leak and asked our resident superintendent to come to my apartment. When my super looked under my sink, he said the repairs were substandard and should be replaced.

I contacted HUB and told them what the plumber and my super said. They told me my warranty had expired (I actually had NINE MORE WEEKS on my warranty). After several phone calls and emails, HUB just flat out refused to send a plumber who was capable to repair the damage their plumber had done. Throughout my exchanges with HUB, they never seemed to be surprised that their work was substandard. They were confrontational rather than apologetic. They were not at all interested to see the poor quality of work done under their name.

We all make mistakes and I don't think it's always fair to judge anyone by his/her mistakes. However; I think it's entirely fair to judge based on their response to their mistakes. HUB told me they would happily return my money. I guess providing substandard service and refusing to stand by their warranty makes them happy.

Reply to John: I was never rude to you or your employees. Since my exchanges with Stephanie were via email, please post all of my rude emails.

Also, my sink was leaking and there was a plumber under my sink. You think it's ridiculous that I allowed the plumber to fix the leak. Really? I suppose you think the better choice would have been to allow the leak to continue and destroy the ceiling in the apartment below mine.

Yesterday night, February 15th, we were having heating issues. Called a couple local plumbers to see if they can come check out my boiler, but since it was Saturday night, a lot of companies couldn't provide me service. Went on yelp to see which companies were open late, saw Intrepidus Piping and Heating open 24/7 emergency services, decided to give it a try. Contacted them, no less than 10 minutes, Kaitlyn had a plumber come to my location in no longer than 30 minutes. The plumber, Chris, noticed that my pilot was not lit. Had to replace a few parts for a reasonable price. Great service and solved the problem quickly!

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.

Fantastic, fantastic, fantastic! I came home on a Friday evening to a broken water heater and a damp basement. Given all of the phased openings and general uncertainty around Covid-19 my family expected cold showers until Monday at least I launched a request for quotes either way.

Tom and Fred responded to my request almost immediately! Then I had to re-read the message several times because I could not believe they would be available for this job Saturday morning (the very next day)! But it gets better, they showed up early! It's early Saturday AM, we have a fantastic new water heater, cleanly installed and the old water heater has been carted away. I can't say enough about Serve-Well, hire this team with confidence!

we had a blocked sewage issue that caused flooding in our basement. When Kyle showed up he didn't have the right equipment so he left to go get it and come back. A little frustrating... but figured I'd still give them a try. Came back with another guy and I could hear them goofing off and making jokes in the basement instead of just getting the work done. When they did finish they said they would write up a bill and wanted to know if I'd pay cash or credit card. I said can I do credit card, but  they never provided a bill. I didn't argue because i just wanted them out of my home. So my husband called the owner after and let him know we felt they they overcharged us, and the owner just argued and said they did the work. they charged a lot of money to just fix the blockage but not clean up the mess. (We ended up renting a shopvac and cleaning it ourselves) Overall wouldn't call them again because I just felt uncomfortable in my own home and wanted them out ASAP, and didn't find them professional.

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.

Great service! I called before noon regarding a leak in my home and 2 technicians stopped by the same day. The main technician was knowledgeable and able to provide me with a solution to the problem. They acted in a professional manner and I highly recommend their services if you are experiencing plumbing issues.

Hi!  My name is Yaniv.  I live in the Park Slope area.  I hired Franco Belli to address an issue with my boiler.  Manny, the plumber I worked with, was unfailingly polite and responsive.  Still, I would strongly, strongly urge you to look elsewhere.

Over the course of one month, three separate visits, and $2,000 in charges, Manny attended to my heater.  The boiler was exactly as dysfunctional after a month of his work as it was when he started.  I decided, reluctantly, to get a second opinion.  The other plumber (no advertisements here) diagnosed the problem in--no joke--ten seconds, had the boiler up and running again in less than half an hour, and he did it all at a quarter the cost of what I had already paid Franco Belli.  

I expressed my frustration with Manny at having spent $2,000 to no avail. He became (suddenly, uncharacteristically) non-responsive.

Here's the upshot: I bet Franco Belli fixes most of the problems they encounter without a hiccup.  You might have a great experience with them.  But there are a lot of plumbers in the neighborhood, some of them truly excellent: I suggest you keep looking.

SKETCHY. Went way over quote, didn't know about the coupon on YELP when I tried to redeem it, changed the final price several times. Did an incomplete job and had to come back two weeks later but then pretended like he wasn't the same guy who came the first time.

These are the best plumbers I have used. They came and resolved all the issues in a professional and speedy manner, even showing me how to fix some small issues in the future on my own. The pricing was super reasonable and lower than other quotes that I had gotten. Will definitely be using them for all my plumbing needs in the future.

Shower was clogged from too much hair going down the drain.  I tried everything but need a profesh.  Rusty's was easy to text and had someone come the next day.  Service was fast, friendly and a good price.

John was wonderful, extremely responsive/communicative/friendly. Can't say enough about his communication! And he worked with a kind of water heater that several other plumbers said they couldn't work with. I already intend to recommend him to others in my building.

I called and asked how much it would be for someone to pit in a pilot valve on my boiler. I already know whats wrong with it. My old one was buzzing and my friend already bought the part, he just hasmt had time yet to install. The wasnted $175 TO WALK IN MY DOOR to look at it. Just to assess the problem they wanted almost $200 and their address is about a mile from my house. Dont walk RUN. I dont care how many good reviews they get. I no lonher believe any of these boiler people reviews.

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.
