Thank you Main Man Plumbing Corporation!
    We learned that we had a broken sewer line when a basement toilet seriously backed up.  A neighborhood plumber came and tried to rotor rooter the toilet clog. His bit got stuck  and he could not extricate it. We have a Victorian house that is over 100 years old and learned that our pipe line was clay piping. We met with several plumbers and received an array of price quotes.  We checked that all had licenses and went on several web sites for reviews.  Main Man was recommended by my seamstress who said the company did a wonderful job on her sewer line problem. My husband was impressed with Main Man's representative and told me that he seemed to really know his business.  The owner, Scott Kerity, was very pleasant to deal with and explained the permits, the contract details, and how long it would take to do the job. His price was reasonable. By this time, we were taking showers at the neighbor's and the gym.
    After signing the contract, Scott 's team came the next day, right on time and gave us back our water usage. They found the broken pipe and replaced it with the appropriate piping.  All this within 4 hours.  Their work was clean and they did not break the sidewalk ( which we had recently had put down with a special process to match the older sidewalks).  The crew answered all my questions (a lot) about their work. They came the next working day to complete the job.  I was very pleased with the results and that everything that Scott said he would do , was done in a timely and professional manner.  I want to  recommend Main Man Plumbing as an honest, qualified , and efficient company to use. By the way, they also extricated the bit and drill for our neighborhood plumber.

Our toilet had a stoppage in the middle of the night. After consulting with multiple plumbers, Akeim of Sturks Sewer Works was able to clear the blockage and get the toilet back into functional order at a very reasonable rate. Thank you so much Akeim!

Robert has helped with two plumbing issues over the past month.  He is very responsive with text and phone and a pleasure to work with.  On one of the projects, he resolved an issue that the building super said couldn't be done and in the process saved the owner additional expenses.

I've had bad experiences with plumbers and contractors.  Who hasn't?  Those who don't return calls, say they have insurance but turns out they don't have insurance etc....

With Robert, the required insurance and admin paperwork required by the condo was provided expediently.  We agreed on time and he showed up on time.  Everything was just smooth.  Highly recommended.

He came to put my radiators in place. He did the job I paid him. I have since called him twice, he gives me an appointment time then does not show up. I am wondering if my color skin has anything to do with his behavior since there wasn't any problems when he came to replace radiators.

Professional company that returns your call in a timely manner. Stand behind their work

Plumbing issue- and you find yourself filled with dread. From out of state? Frightening. Yelp research and set up and appointment with James. Communication was quick and excellent. Service was tremendous, no fuss, no muss. The price was fair and didn't make me want to cry. Our second visit to finish a couple other items is already on the books.

Honest, responsive, straightforward. I can not think of anything more important and I must recommend Platinum Plumbing highly.

Extremely flexible to our schedule, came out on a Saturday morning.  Quickly repaired shower and reasonable cost. Will use this company again!

Dealt with Downtown's Anthony Myhre on everything from an LL152 inspection / rectification to a leaky drain and he has been an absolute pleasure.  Quick communication / very understanding of a homeowner's concerns and Downtown has always shown up when they say they are showing up.  These guys won't leave you hanging where some of the larger players will decide they aren't even interested in a job.

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.

My experience with Blaustein was the complete opposite of Phineas' (as has been the experience of two co-ops who've used Blaustein for years and recommended them).  B. responded immediately to my call and located a hard-to-reach leaking drainpipe that two previous plumbers had been unable to find.  Junior, the head doctor, had to cut away a lot of wood shims under the tub to see the culprit, then removed and replaced it in only two hours' work.  Decades of experience, total professionals, reasonable prices, and it's even a union shop, we understand.

Samir was great to work with. We needed to make space in our kitchen for a dishwasher installation (which included putting a new outlet in and taking out some cabinets). Samir was super responsive and easy to work with. Scheduling was a breeze and he came and did the job in an afternoon. The price for the job was really fair and better than all of the other quotes we got. Samir is also a really nice guy. I couldn't recommend him highly enough and we are very happy with our new dishwasher!

I've contacted these guys twice and they could have been more professional in both circumstances.  First, was a broken shower handle and when they arrived they insisted they would have to leave and drive around multiple boroughs at $150/hr to search in person for the part (starting in the Bronx, I'm in Williamsburg).  I had to call the owner and spend time explaining that you can use the internet to find parts much quicker.  The project took a month or so w/ multiple visits to ultimately fix which is understandable.  I paid in person, got receipt, etc.  Then I received a somewhat unpleasant collection call a couple months later saying they needed their money.  When I told the owner it was paid in person, he said he would didn't think so but would check and I never heard back.  

Yesterday, there was a pretty serious flood in the apartment upstairs that flooded my bathroom.  The upstairs guy and I tried these folks again, they were supposed to come between 2 and 4 yesterday, then today at 9am and never showed.  

The other reviews sound great and I'm assuming other people had positive experiences, wish I could say the same.

prompt, efficient, and lower rate than what I was paying with another
company who this time was not returning my calls, which turn out to
be good.

The staff is very knowledgeable and helpful.  They have just about any plumbing part you can imagine in stock

The prices are crazy. Their estimate was 4x higher than all other estimates for the same task.

I called yesterday night to get an appointment for our tenants apartment. Spoke with Robert he was friendly and extremely professional provided me an appointment for early morning today. Really great fast services unlike others wanting us to wait a week or more. You need anything draining related call them now!! The company name is perfect fitting for them they are extremely correct with urgent, is what they provided us. I'm thrilled I called them and will keep them in mind for any other further services needed.  Reasonable cost also, You won't go wrong with calling them.

Mike is the man! Thanks to him, he let us know exactly why the pipes kept clogging. He not only did the proper work but he also imparted knowledge onto us. Guy knows his stuff and will not have second thoughts on calling the company again asking for Mike in the future.

A big shout out to Mike the awesome!

Really rude and unhelpful. Just needed one part and they were going to charge extra bs fees for handling. Do yourself a favor and buy exactly what you need online
