Michael Your Plumber

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.

Michael is a great plumber.
I have hired him for several times in the last few years.
He's snaked well-clogged drains, and recently did a handful of odd small jobs (leaky faucets, flex-pipes, and bad washers). He was able to do everything quickly and affordably.

Michael is prompt, knowledgeable, and very responsive (I used to live in his neighborhood, so he'd often be there the same day!). His prices are much less than other rooter-type companies. He communicates clearly if a repair is needed, and will draw a picture of the part I should get. On more than one occasion, he's made a quick fix that will help prevent future backups, and he has not charged extra.

And yes, he sends out awesome ""thank you"" cards for the business.

Michael is the nicest plumber I've ever met. He helped us with a blocked sewage drain - he was quick, knowledgeable and affordable. I will definitely being using him again when needed.

Michael Your Plumber is the only plumber you should use.

One side of my kitchen sink had a leaky pipe underneath and my landlord asked me to get 3 estimates. The other plumbing companies I called quoted me $125 and $220.

Michael said it would be only $60!! AND, he ended up changing the pieces on both sides of the double sink to prevent future leaks. He didn't charge extra. In fact, he made it very clear that people who charge extra are a pet peeve of his.

He was on time, friendly, talkative, knew what he was doing, and even gave my dog a treat. A week later, I got a hand-written postcard in the mail from him, thanking me for using his service! Wow!

The service he provided was excellent, and even more important, I would recommend him for the more than 50% difference in his price compared to other plumbers.

Just an update - no one likes things that break later, right? It's been long enough now something would have broken, everything is still working great. Michael's worked himself out of a job at our house for a while ;-)

We also got a handwritten thank you note. I should do that for *my* clients, it was a nice touch.

Michael is great. He has done several jobs for us and is prompt, pleasant and always come in at or under his estimate. He does great work and I will happily call him anytime we need any plumbing work done. I only wish I had known him when we needed a new hot water heater.

He's also a really nice person to have in your home.

QUICK UPDATE: We just received a hand-written personal thank you note from Michael for our business. Great plumber, great prices, great personality and, on top of all that, great customer service!

Another 5 stars for Michael! He is as wonderful as the previous reviewers said.

My boyfriend and I met Michael last week when, on basically no notice at all, he came out and fixed our leaky tub at a price that was HALF of what another plumber was going to charge. Not only did he take care of the leak, but he talked us through what he was doing step-by-step, so that next time, we can do it on our own.

On his way out, we showed him another plumbing problem that had come up in the kitchen that we are remodeling (sans contractor -- putting the Y in DIY). Basically, the hot water pipe under the sink was sticking out too far to accommodate a garbage disposal. Not only did Michael fix it on the spot, but he did it in 10 minutes with no mess and didn't charge us much for the additional work.

The trouble with plumbers is that when you need a plumber, you really NEED a plumber. It's hard to know whether or not they are being honest in terms of the labor and cost of materials and, usually, we're in a desperate situation and can't afford the time to ""shop around."" Michael is a great plumber, but more important to us is that he is 100% trustworthy. In fact, he told us that he left his previous employer (I won't mention names, but the company has less than favorable yelp reviews) because they encouraged him to mislead customers and over-charge.

Michael Your Plumber is our new plumber! Our only regret is that we can't give him more than 5 stars!

Michael was wonderful. He wasn't able to do our large plumbing job but referred us to another plumber that is just as great. The project is in process but when it's done, I'll be sure to review him as well. What topped the cake for me was after Michael looked at our problem he mentioned that for smaller projects he would absolutely be available.

I told him that our tub was backing up. He pulled out a bunch of junk on the spot and didn't charge me for it!

Would highly recommend him for smaller jobs.
