Recommended Customer Reviews

I called Michael because of his reviews on Yelp and I could not be happier that I did. He came same day and installed a new toilet, garbage disposal and pipe that afternoon.
He bought the equipment, installed it and took away the old material. He was very professional and personable.
It was a "" no hassle job"" and his prices were very fair. I will definitely use him again when I have a plumbing issue.

You're awesome Michael. As a Realtor I needed a quick fix. Michael answered his phone, made a commitment and followed through. I have added to my phone contact Michael at Best Defense Plumbing. I will call again when I need help!!

If I can give 10 stars, I would.
I called late Monday evening because of a water heater issue. He gladly came over and helped us out immediately. Very professional and also friendly.
He will definitely be our go to plumber moving forward.

I called Michael for an estimate to remove an old bathtub and install a new one. We set up the appointment for a Sunday evening (I was hesitant to do this because it was a Sunday, but he said he had a job going on that day and could stop by afterward, so I went ahead and scheduled) between 4 and 6 pm. Because I was busy all day Saturday (demo...ugh), I had forgotten what time was agreed upon and couldn't find the paper on which I jotted our time. I called Michael Saturday and left him a message asking to confirm our appointment. He never returned my call. This was my first red flag. I found my ""note to self"" telling me when our meeting was and wasn't too worried about the missed call because I knew when to expect him.
Sunday afternoon at 3:15, I texted Michael asking if we were still on for 4 - 6. An hour later, and 15 minutes into our appointment window, he replied to my text with an apology, saying he couldn't make it because he was still on another job. I said I understood and and asked him what day would work for him to reschedule. He said Wednesday or Thursday. I said late Wednesday or any time Thursday. He opted for Wednesday, 5p-7p and I agreed, but later on, he asked if he could come earlier, between 8 and noon. 8am was too early for me, so he said between 9 and 10 am. I didn't really want to take this time slot as I work 12 hour (+/-) shifts overnight but really wanted the estimate, so I said yes. He confirmed and said he would text me when he was on his way.
Well, it's now 11:55 and I've heard nothing from him, so I consider this a no call/no show.
Maybe my job was too small and insignificant. Maybe he is just way too busy. Maybe he had some sort of personal emergency. Maybe he was abducted by aliens. Maybe he was kidnapped by gypsies. Maybe he fell into a black hole. But for me, the Best Defense is a good offense, and I have contacted other companies for my estimate and job.
I kinda figure if Michael cannot be bothered to call, text, send a carrier pigeon, use smoke signals, use a megaphone, send a morse code, use drumbeats, yodel, skywrite, or how about just show up? for an estimate, I should be very suspicious of the job he would have done for me.
Maybe I dodged a bullet. Maybe he just had a bad day. He probably does fantastic work, but alas, I will never know because obviously his time was more important than mine and I never had the pleasure of meeting him and hiring him

Michael was on time, quick and reasonably priced! my go to plumber from here forward.

I hired Mike to do 3 projects. He was prompt, knowledgeable, courteous and competitively priced. The work is flawless - it's exactly what I wanted. He followed through on his commitments, and was able to turn around the work within a few days. Great job - I will definitely hire him again.

I so appreciate the way Michael responded to my call. He came to my home in a timely manner. After giving me a quote, the job was completed right away. This was not an emergency so he could have easily put me off for awhile, like a couple of other companies did. He did a fantastic job.

Mike was great. He texts, he always responds right away, he tells you when hes coming and going, hes quick and knowledgeable. We lost our hot water on a Saturday night and it would have been fixed by Sunday morning if it hadn't been under warranty... Ironic... But he was still able to get us in a hot shower by Monday at noon. Great work!

We are happy we finally found a trustworthy and dependable plumber! Michael is very knowledgeable and fixed our hot water heater. We highly recommend Best Defense Plumbing and will definitely call them again.

We discovered that we had a leak from our upstairs drains coming form the two bathrooms upstairs. Baker aka Mike, from Best Defense Plumbing, is our neighbor, so we asked him to come over and take a look at it. After figuring out what the cause was, Baker came over this morning and fixed the problem and did a fantastic job. We have another plumbing job for Baker, and he will be coming back to take care of any plumbing needs in the future.
