Lawrence was diligent in solving my Mom’s plumbing problem. She’s elderly and really needed immediate help. Michael and Son responded promptly and charged fairly for the complex issue that needed to be solved. I highly recommend and would use them again.
My experience with Matt was very positive. I was away for military duties ahead of a deployment overseas and he provided me with timely, detailed updates of what he observed and made recommendations on what options I had available and answered all my questions to make an informed decision. He was thorough and made…
Very professional and knowledgeable. Took his time to explain everything and suggested how to improve so as not to have the issue again.
Tech was very knowledgeable and helpful. Great communication and explains the process and outcomes.
Fantastic job and great attitude. I will definitely use them again.
Angel arrived on time, was highly mannerable, and quickly assessed the issue with my garbage disposal. He asked the neccessary questions, let me know the price difference, and fixed the issue.
Lawrence did a great job. He explained to me what he would be doing before starting. He prepared the area to prevent water from leaking. Was able find and clear the backup in the kitchen sink drain. He cleared the drain then used an additional clearing tool to make sure the entire line was cleared and good to go. Everything is draining so much faster now!
Quick in out, fixed all my problems!
Mr. Ryan was professional and courteous. He worked through multiple issues and his work was excellent.
This business does good quality work. We've done a plumbing and HVAC through them. They clean up after themselves, tell you what they recommend with no pressure and are professional.
Chris inspected the new Gas Furnace installed by ARS last June when prior one (with higher rater) was one year past warranty.Showed me photo of mold in duct and rust in a pipe. This inspection showed that they had not replaced the plenum where the mold was identified Very, very thorough inspection with a…
Polite young man. Concious of neatness. No mess. Explained what he needed to do with price before hand. Thought it was expensive.
He went above and beyond speaking with me and giving me helpful tips . Kind, clean, smart, thoughtful, and thorough
The Michael and Sons' technician, Jason Lind, did an excellent job with a faucet installation, minor drain repair and cleaning, and a plumbing inspection. He explained all he did and what he saw on the inspection very clearly. He was very personable and respectful.
Michael and Son were prompt, knew exactly what to do and fixed the problem. They charge too much, but I guess if people are over a barrel and have the funds that's their prerogative.
Justin was very thorough and did a great job diagnosing the issue and walking through all the avaialable options to address it. He took the time to make sure everything was done correctly and with the highest quality.
Arrived quickly and it was a bigger job than expected, excellent work on the immediate issue and helped identify future concerns i wasnt aware of. Would recommend!
The young man was outstanding!! Very polite and taught me a lot!!! He did a fantastic job!!!
Michael & Son Services diagnosed a puzzling problem with our septic system and toilets quickly, professionally and accurately - three other companies have previously tried to help us. We are so impressed with finally getting a solution - Lawrence, our technician, did a fantastic job at opening the clogged line,…

Even when we initially could not recreate the problem right away, he was patient and did not question my account of the problem! He Instead tried multiple methods to repeat the issue so he could observe it firsthand. He…
He did a wonderful job! We're very satisfied. Above and beyond!
Lawrence was a very thorough and efficient tech. He was able to locate all of our plumbing issues and mitigate them.
Professional and helpful service. Will be calling again in the future when I need more plumbing or drain cleaning work done.

Great service!
Exceptional service
Technician was excellent, courteous, friendly and professional.
On time, thorough and very courteous. Tyler was a champ to install an attic fan in 100 degrees! Very pleased with the service!
We have gone with Michael & Son for our plumbing, electrical, and HVAC needs for years after trying out other companies. What we liked best is that we can always get a technician fairly quickly and their work is backed by a warranty. Today, we had J'Mario help us with our clogged sinks and bathtub drain, as well as…
Jason and Zach were so great to work with. They were both very personable and professional, taking care of our plumbing issue quickly and efficiently. They both are very knowledgeable and made sure we were comfortable with the work that needed to be done.
Same day service, called in the morning and was able to schedule that day with a very friendly receptionist, the service man came with booties, polite, asked questions, was very clear on findings and what needed to be done.
Lawrence was a great technician, very detailed and efficient
AC drain line completely clogged. When another company said it can't be cleared and would need to be replaced I called Micheal and Sons for a second opinion. Michael and Sons was successful at fixing the issue. The tech was on time, very determined to repair the issue, very informative, and was so helpful in helping…
I have used Michael & Son's different services, HVAC, Restoration, and Plumbing and have always had a great experience and great work!
Fixed the issue. Thorough. Decent price. Made recommendations for how to do maintenance from it happening again. I am grateful.
Had a bathroom sink that was a very slow drainer! Juan cleaned it out in no time and gave us some tips to prevent or at least slow down the situation. Great Technician with helpful hints also!! Thanks Michael & Sons for having such GOOD Technician’s!!
Danny was polite and efficient.
Adam was awesome. He was able to determine the problem right away, and gave me a bunch of tips for preventing it from happening in the future.
Great work , great service 👍🏾
Great guy, great service!
Jason was wonderful and went over and beyond to help us. With 5 kids having a clogged kitchen sink and thus no use of the dishwasher we greatly appreciate his help.
Frank was very patient and explained each step of the process to complete our plumbing problem. We very much enjoyed his character and his professionalism. If we need any plumbing service, we will request that our Technician be Frank!!!
John was very friendly and helpful.
Lawrence was awesome. We had a difficult clog in our kitchen sink and he approached it patiently and took the time to make sure it was done right. Thank you!
Was early spent time to tell her the problem
Professional, helpful, excellent work, well-documented.
They were able to service the drain at a local apartment building in a timely manner. The drain tech was professional and courteous. I asked o many questions and he took his time to explain the work. I'd highly recommend Michael and sons.
I had a super backed up toilet that was nearly overflowing and would not budge, Ryan took care of it in probably less than 5 minutes and even left the toilet clean. He was friendly, professional, quick, and did a great job. In addition to making an embarrassing situation seem like it wasn’t a big deal - I had mad…
We called this company due to a clogged kitchen sink. The dispatcher was super kind and we were able to be seen the same week. The technician was excellent and quick. Satisfied.
Lawrence got here as scheduled and was polite & courteous. He got right to work. Once he was done, he explained the issue to me in a way that I understood & talked about ways to prevent it from happening again. He was nothing but professional and understanding of our problem. I was very relieved that he could fix our clog so easily.
Plumbing repair work was contracted and was completed. They said they performed other services. We paid 3 other companies to review. Michael & Sons totally ripped us off for over $10k. There were many issues. Cannot recommend this company!
Fabian Martinez did a great job for me today! He's very friendly, explained things well, and made sure to show me exactly what was happening and what he was doing for each step in the process. Thank you, Fabian!
Michael and Son will always have us as customers! John was great, friendly, and very knowledgeable.
Fabian is a top notch plumber at Michael and Sons. He is efficient, knows all things plumbing and always cleans up the work area. He explains what the problem is in a transparent way and is thorough in his work.
Frank is with great knowledge and did a great job.
The Tech was knowledgeable, personable, very articulate. Described what the issue was and resolved it. My wife and I were very pleased all around! Want to give a big thank you to Timothy Trainer, Thanks!!
Solved the problem quickly with no unnecessary work.
Petey and his apprentice were friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient. I would highly recommend their service for plumbing. While not the cheapest, the quality speaks for itself.
Work was not done because the plumber(Nick) did not have a snake and he said that he could not do the work. He was 2hrs late and acted like he did not care. Not professional. Will not ever use this company again! What plumber doesn't have a snake?!!
Customer service was excellent. Ryan did a great job!
Ryan was my technician. He was on time, respectful, and had a wonderful positive attitude. He was knowledgeable and very helpful in getting my hallway bathroom sink restored for us to use. It had a bad clog. So thankful for his prompt and attentive service. The Jones Household thanks you greatly for helping us.
AWESOME. 5 hours spent trying to find the clog that was 25 feet down. Our service guy was great. Highly recommend.
Michael & Son are an amazing company. We had a sewer emergency at our home, and they were spot on , responsive and got the issue rectified in no time. The technician Darrick Shaw was very polite, patient and addressed all our questions diligently . They also provided their expert recommendation on the right process…
John Howekl is an amazing ambassador for your company. He is professional, courteou, , knowledgeable, efficient and approachable with questions. He cleared my drain so with remarkable speed, checked the corrected function before he left. Who could ask for better service!!
John did an excellent job, went the extra mile to get things right. Would recommend him to anyone.
OUTSTANDING Experience - Our technician, John Howell, was fantastic. He exceeded my expectations exponentially!
Very timely appointment, less than 16 hours from time I contacted in the late afternoon. I appreciated the multiple points of contact, even prior to showing up. I have two giant dogs and so the tracking link for their arrival was great to ensure I could put my dogs outside at the last minute, but prior to the chaos…
Great service!! Juan did a wonderful job !!!!
They came on time, did a good job, were very professional and clearly had expertise, but when wrapping up did not clean up adequately and also left our crawl space door wide open. Didn't discover it until late in the evening, and didn't enjoy cleaning up the smelly mess.
Cameron was knowledgeable of my problems, explained options clearly and fixed problems to my satisfaction.
Friendly, professional, detailed. The service to my A/C system gives me confidence that I can breathe easier knowing it's in good hands.
Great service today! Thank you again Ryan - excellent communication, timely, great work and so helpful. Appreciate it!
Jacob was wonderful! He was able to come earlier than expected which I really appreciated. He was quick and thorough and fixed my drain in no time! He was also really helpful and showed me several options when I asked about installing a garbage disposal. I will definitely be calling again!
Cody the repairman was prompt, cordial and very professional. He determined the problem quickly, explained what needed to b e done, the time and the price. Very pleased and would use this company again.
Juan, the service technician, arrived well within the quoted time. I received a nice bio about him prior to his arrival. He called to let me know when he was within 30 minutes of the home. When he arrived he was very personable and professional. He checked the problem toilet, told me what possible steps he might…
Matthew was very professional and efficient. My toddler decided to flush a toilet paper handle down the toilet and he saved me from having to purchase a new toilet. Same day service and very affordable.

Excellent work and courteous service.
Great service at a fair price!
The 2 personnel crew was very professional, helpful and knowledgeable.
Great
Michael & Sons Raleigh NC is a rip off, employ subpar and unprofessional drain "specialists" vs. licensed plumbers who do the minimum work at absorbent costs, and do not stand behind their work. Please read the countless reports to the Better Business Bureau before wasting time and money with this company as I…
Wow, its hard to find words on how impressed our family is with Bryan's services. He got to our home extremely quickly, he was very professional, straight forward, knowledgeable, and he helped us every way possible to fix our issues. He took time to make absolutely sure he repaired our mainline blockage. He was here…
Bryan was extremely helpful and provided me with some good plumbing tips. He was very commutative about everything. The vet all very satisfied with the service.
Pleased with the service
Service was able to be scheduled same day. Our specialist was very thorough and professional, was able to resolve our issue in a single visit, and was very respectful.
Great service!
Although willing to come out on a busy weekend the price quoted was twice the national average for that service. The tech was aggravated that I would not use them and I would prefer to pay 70.00 for having him come out than to pay 700 dollars to clear a drain with a promise that it could end up being more.
Unfortunately, this was not the service that I would expect from Michael and Son Service. They came to the house and the technician Ryan was upset from the start that the scheduler had forgotten to put the drain special in the notes. He then proceeded to tell me that if the chemical didn’t work (which I knew it…
called Micheal & Sons to repair clogged drain.Tech came out and said it was best to replace cast iron pipes with PVC lines.Genovani Olivera and David came out the next day to start the job .They both was very polite and knowledgeable about this installation and informed me on every thing .I would recommend…
Technician was very friendly and helpful
Fabian wss Very polite, very organized, explained everthing. Did exactly what he said, and went out of his way to help my mom understand the problem and the solution.
Ryan was very responsive and professional. I strongly recommend Michael and Sons. I use them for all services at both our house and my parents' house.
Great fast service. Fair priced
