They came thru for me today I am very pleased. They are clean and professional. Did I mention clean? They offer a great service for a great price. They were on time, well early actually. got in and got out.

After trying several home repairs, we called Michael for a big kitchen pipe clog on a Saturday and he came out and fixed it like magic. Friendly, skilled, fast, and came on short notice on the weekend! Kind of unbelievable. Hopefully we won't need a lot of plumbing repairs in the future, but if we do, he's on our speed dial.

Yelp comes through with something that's so hard to find these days: a competent contractor! I needed three new sinks hooked up and Michael came out the same day for an estimate. He made sure he was there when my countertops were installed so the holes were drilled correctly, and then he and his crew did the work a day later. They cleaned up after themselves and everything's working as it should. Michael was professional, polite, and was always on-time or even early!

These guys are great. Yelpers do not lie. We moved into a new home and on day 1, our water main failed. Michael sent a person out who had questions on how to repair or whether to replace. Michael himself then made the trip to our house to assess the situation. We spoke about how we had just moved in and the other guys were quoting thousands of dollars and the need to fully replace the main line.

Michael says, ""...if i were you and just moved in here, i'd rather just repair this before putting in a new line. you probably would rather be buying furniture right now right?"" He was right on the mark. He could easily have just been like the other guys and went for the big job.

I was worried they wouldn't find the leak and I'd end up just spending more money while they dug up my yard. Michael's team found the leak, put in a new section of pipe, all within estimate, saving me the overcharged estimates of the other guys.

He has a customer for life. Why can't all contractors act this way?

UPDATE: 6 months later we recommended Albion and Michael to our neighbors. They raved about him in the same way. Husband out of town and wife unsure what to do about full system backup. Michael rushed out, calmed her, deliver quality at a good price and office staff was incredibly nice to her. She still talks about them.

This guy is terrific! He came out the same day afterhours, got right to work, and was done quickly. His charge was extremely reasonable given the time of day. I'd use him again and recommend him to anyone who needs a timely, polite, quick and skilled plumber.

MIchael had to come back for another pretty big issue, he showed up in good time on a Saturday, fixed the issue, fixed my sink AND shower and only charged 160. They are AWESOME

Oh how lucky I was to find Michael on Yelp. We have a clogged drain outside the house and there's something wrong with our shower valve. Michael came the day after I called and instead of just looking and providing me with an estimate, he went to work right away. Now our pipe is already less clogged (he'd need to come back with another tool to fully unclog it) and he quickly figured out which parts we might need for our shower.
And: He didn't even want to charge me for the work he had already done!
Another nice little touch: He had shoe covers when he came into the house and said he'd treat other people's houses like his own. I thought it was great that he even thought about this and came this well prepared!

I'm writing this right after Michael left my apartment. I found him on Yelp! this afternoon and called him for a jammed disposal (probably due my own abuse of the thing...). Michael was extremely accommodating and willing to work around my busy schedule, even offering to come late tonight or early tomorrow morning. He arrived at 9:30pm and promptly solved my disposal issue. Not only was he courteous and professional, but he didn't blink an eye at all of the ""gunk"" in my sink and offered me tips for keeping the disposal clean. I am extremely impressed!! He obviously cares about plumbing, and perhaps more importantly, the PEOPLE who use it! Highly recommended!!

Once again, Yelpers came to my rescue--by sending me directly to Michael. So thank you, reviewers! This guy's definitely a great find. My dishwashing sink at the commercial kitchen was backed up--and I had a corporate group of 30 coming to cook together in a couple of hours. I'd done everything I could think of to clear it, to no avail. Called, and within record time (for any plumber I've ever encountered), Michael arrived. Took a look at the problem, took control, and very efficiently and neatly fixed it in an hour's time. Charged me the Yelp rate--a nice discount--and gave me tips for keeping the drain running free. I couldn't believe, after experiences with rooter companies in the past, how great this was.

But the story doesn't end there. The group arrived, we got going on our cooking projects, and then started doing the dishes. The commercial dishwasher was also backed up. What a disaster, and by now it's nearly 8 PM, things are piling up badly. Called Michael again--and again he came within an hour or so, despite having started his day 13 hours before, and fixed the problem, which turned out to be a completely separate issue from the earlier clog.

I highly recommend Michael; my only fear is that he will get too busy helping other Yelpers to be as available next time I have an emergency. He also does bigger projects, and I am going to have him bid on one I'm working on, to replace our hot water heater with an on-demand version.
