Michael Donahue Plumbing & Heating

( five stars !!)I called Michael Donahue when our Boiler blew during a cold spell (18 degrees) our home had no heat( EMERGENCY). He immediately came over and assessed the problem. He worked 13 hour days and had us up and running in no time with a new boiler. Michael is no-nonsense, hardworking and straight forward about everything. He gave us a fair price and got the job done. Michael is old school, that is to say, he works with pride in his work, attention to detail and customer satisfaction. It's a trait that is getting more difficult to come by these days. We will not hesitate to call Michael again for any problem or advice.

I had yet another nightmare experience with a contractor I removed from my project.
I searched Yelp for a plumber to finish the job and Michael Donahue's reviews stood out as excellent. I admit I had my doubts after being burnt many times, but I must say, Michael was BEYOND excellent! Extremely professional, with fair pricing, and an eye for detail. Michael completed the most daunting task of correcting the mistakes made by my previous plumber at the same time meeting my high expectations and discriminating taste. Michael Donahue is a keeper!!

Michael came on very short notice to fix a noisy radiator in our baby's nursery. He quickly identified the problem and went above and beyond to make sure my wife and I were happy. He even gave some advice on balancing the steam heating system in our old house.

The short of it: I will definitely call him in the future should I need a plumber again.

Michael came very quickly and gave us a second opinion. I was very happy with his recommendations. He was very knowledgeable and helpful. He did not charge for diagnosing our problem with my boiler. I will continue using his services. Thanks Michael!!

Mike, responded the night I left a message within 10 minutes. And he came the very next day to look at our issue. He was professional, on time and funny. He quickly solved the problem. He is honest and will try to solve the job the most economic way possible. He even gave us tips for taking care of possible problems that may arise when living in an older brownstone. I highly recommend his service.

I live in a new construction townhome that has many issues with heat and hot water. My neighbors spent a fortune fixing something boiler related over several visits from a boiler company that Michael figured out for our unit in two visits. His availability was awesome as well. Very easy to work with and knowledgeable. Highly recommend.

Great guy and an even better plumber! It's rare these days to find a person who is as honest, hard-working, and direct as Michael. I spoke with several plumbers and Michael was by far the most responsive and attentive. He was at my place within a day of my call and was beyond patient and positive in how he communicated with me.

His work was also outstanding. I had a very tricky situation when a previous contractor had completely botched a washer/dryer drainage pipe install. Thankfully, Michael came in and saved the day, completely fixing the original issue and improving upon it immensely. Now I no longer have any problems with the drainage of my washer/dryer. He also did the work up to code as well as installed a sink in my basement that works perfectly along with leaving a spotless work area once everything was completed

Bottom line: if you need a great plumber, who is fair with pricing and a genuinely good person, look no further than Michael Donahue!

Michael was recommended to me by a fellow property owner in the area that was really happy with his service and professionalism.

Michael was flexible with scheduling the work needed, worked around my schedule, was punctual and provided exemplary service at very fair prices.

A true professional, Michael stands behind his work 100%. The epitome of ""They don't make guys like that anymore."" I would comfortably recommend Michael Donahue's plumbing services to friends, family, local business and property owners/managers.

I feel really lucky that Mike was referred to me. I had a waterlogged floor, and no idea where the water was coming from. Mike worked systematically to determine the root of the problem, documenting the whole process while he went. He provided clear explanations for what work needed to happen and why, as well as detailed estimates for each component of the process. This was a big and complicated job, and it was a relief to know that Mike had the broad range of skills and expertise to complete every aspect, including installing a new drain and rebuilding my walls. Mike Donahue is extremely reliable (he always shows up when he says he will if not earlier), an excellent communicator, and very respectful (he always leaves the work space clean, and takes care to protect my belongings). I recommend Mike Donahue without hesitation - a true professional!

If you're lucky enough to land Michael of Michael Donahue Plumbing and Heating to perform work for you around his busy schedule, consider it done and done right--with no headaches, no games and no delays. I have been renovating my townhouse in Cobble Hill for over a year and dealing with many ""plumbers""and ""contractors"" and let me just say, Mike is of a different mold.

He built a master bathroom for me from scratch and I couldn't be more pleased with the work. He demo'd the walls and floors, roughed the piping, framed the walls, installed the tub (400lb cast iron that he moved around like a rag doll) installed the medicine cabinet, and more. The attention to detail, the workmanship and the knowledge and expertise he brought to the table were second to none. He actually made the experience enjoyable, which is very rare for a construction project. By the way, his contracting skills are just as solid as his plumbing work.

Also worth noting is the fact that he leaves the worksite spotless and was very respectful of my home and family. My wife was pregnant during the renovation and Mike was extra careful with dust and debris. There is nothing like coming home at night and finding a clean house and obvious progress on your project. He insists on using the highest quality material when he could easily use cheaper brands. The work you never see is the foundation of any good job and Mike takes tremendous pride in lasting, quality work. You just can't put a price on that kind of peace of mind. Take it from someone who near lost his mind dealing with a slew of glorified handymen. Mike is a true professional.
