Michael Your Plumber

Alan L.

Thank you Eric B for this great find. He's great. Had some slow drains and ghost flushing. He not only fixed the problems, he showed me how to do it myself. I know who to call the next time we have a plumbing problem that I can't solve.

I guess my fave plumber is no longer a well-kept secret. Good going Michael. I'm proud of you, and the stellar reputation you have so deservedly earned.

I just hope you'll still have time to be on my dance card...

I hired Michael after reading his stellar reviews on Yelp, and he met my very high expectations. I couldn't have been more pleased. He was fun to talk to, he was extremely pleasant to have in the most intimate part of my house, and he wasn't the least bit disgusted by things that I was embarrassed to show him. He was proactive and sensible, and by the time he left, he had fixed or improved two toilets, a shower, and a sink, all of which had been causing quite a bit of grief. And he charged only $120 for all that. What a find he is!

Michael is the BEST! I had a problem with very slow drains and some backup. I called Michael last Friday afternoon and he called back ASAP to schedule me. When he came out yesterday, he took the time to pull up THREE manhole covers in an attempt to find the outflow pipe, then walked around my house. Turns out that when they built the housing tract back in '69, they did NOT include outflow pipes, simply capped them off, which makes simply snaking impossible.

Michael called an associate, Louis, on the spot to confer about the problem. He told me Louis could handle it and even left a piece of equipment for him to use. Michael's fee? NADA, ZIP, ZERO, ZILCH - and he spent an hour here to explain what I needed done.

Louis' guy showed up, crawled under the house, and was able to pinpoint the problem. I'm getting it fixed today!

Thank you, Michael! Again, you are the best and I'll call you if I ever have any more plumbing issues!

I am new in the area and relied on Yelp to help me find a plumber for a smaller job. Michael was exactly as other reviewers have described him - great! He even had dog treats to make my pooch's day.

Ditto, ditto, ditto on all the accolades given in others' reviews. Michael's easy to work with: honest, knowledgeable and very friendly. He came to review the toilet and drain problems I had, and provided me with a very fair and competitive estimate for the work. When he returned to do the work, he arrived on time and was able to get the work done relatively quickly (and neatly). He even sent me a thank you note (in long hand)! Very customer-oriented. Thanks, Michael.

I have to echo the sentiments of other reviewers here. Michael is terrific. If they'd let me he would get 6 stars.

I wanted my drains snaked because they had been acting up recently, but after getting a quote of $200/hr from the big box companies (with no estimate of how long it would take) I decided to look around for other options. When I called I told him I knew nothing about 1925 plumbing and said that in addition to the work I'd like him to answer a few questions for me. He penciled me in for 90 minutes and asked I needed more time to talk about my plumbing (the work would take less than half that).

Due to my miscommunication, he brought the sewer snake instead of the drain snake. He made another appointment for the next day but still spent an hour walking me through every detail of my home's plumbing, from the back all the way out to the city's lines. He came the next day, did the work, all for the original quote.

Seriously, there may be people out there as good but I can't imagine you'd find anyone better. HONEST, friendly, great prices. You need plumbing, call him with confidence.

Michael was awesome! He saved us a ton of money--his bid was less than 40% of the two competing bids we got. While he was here I asked him to take a moment to fix a gas pipe that needed to be shortened and he did it without charging us! Not only that, he knows where the good restaurants are. Only in the Bay Area can you discuss with your plumber the better places to eat. Michael is definitely Our Plumber now and forever.

I have to say, Michael is definitely by far the best plumber we've hired.
and where did I find him? YELP!! of course.
I highly recommend him, he's nice, honest, best prices in the bay area, and he also takes time to explain in great details what he's doing. I really liked that.
So yes, 5 stars for Michael !!! you wont be disappointed.

Michael was able to schedule me the day after I called. He arrived promptly. He finished quickly. He had everthing he needed with him. The charge was reasonable. He even showed me how to fix something myself. Another satisfied customer here.
