We have been using Michael & Sons for a few years now and. Have always been happy with their work. Today Tarone came to fix our leak and even stayed to fix an additional leak. Our home is often a complicated job but Tarone was easy going, friendly, and very service oriented. His shirt said he was a trainee, but he…
John from Michael and sons came at the beginning of the appointment window which was awesome. Showed up professional, testy to work, looked over my situation and then told me my options. Once I decided which option worked best for me, he acquired the parts and went to work. The finished product was better than…
Juan was very friendly and talked through every step so I could be knowledgeable of everything he repaired. Would definitely recommend him. This was an after hours visit to replace a faulty water pressure reducer, bladder and shutoff valve. So price was higher.
Juan is a very good guy and was very helpful.
Anthony V was fabulous - very professional, personable, and performed a quality repair to our grill gas line.
Thomas came and quickly identified a pinhole leak in a pipe under the house. He was able to fix it during his visit, told us about what he did, and then thoroughly evaluated the other components of the system. Upon his review, he noted our water pressure was set too high amd was likely contributing to more strain on…
Very professional and responded quickly.
Juan was professional, friendly and efficient He was prompt and honest and we will surely work with him again!
Angel was great. We are your customers now. Thank you!
Josh is my go-to guy for all my plumbing needs. He is courteous, neat and pays attention to detail. I strongly recommend Michael and Son.
I called yesterday, and the technician was able to come today, fix my leak, and replace my water heater in a few hours. Bravo on a job well done, and such speedy service!
Anthony was super helpful, attentive and completed the job with care.
Exceptional service!! Highly recommend!

Great service. The technician was super smart and finished the job in record time.
This review is specifically for Elis, who answered our late-night emergency call even though it was past the 11 PM cutoff. He fixed our leak and replaced the shutoff valve in just 25 minutes. Elis was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, respectful, and brought a great sense of humor to a stressful situation. If…
Ismail and Jim did a great job. Explains reecommended repairs and options.
Very professional and worked until he found the problem that was causing low water pressure.
Jason is a top shelf technician/tradesman, professional in every way. Jason replaced our shower faucet and resolved a cold water intake line blockage. He also replaced the main water shutoff valve on the first floor. Plumbing costs are hard to swallow but that is not the technician’s fault. I would recommend Michael and Son.
Great service from Michael & Son! I’ve used them for plumbing, HVAC, and electrical work and have always had a positive experience. Their technicians are professional, knowledgeable, courteous, and show up when expected. They take the time to explain the work, answer questions, and make sure everything is done…
Lawrence came to my house same day as calling and out a patch on my leaking underground water line. This was a temporary fix while the utilities were being marked. He came back the day after the utilities were marked and completed the permanent fix. I loved the photos of the step by step progress of the work and…
Thomas did and amazing job! He was knowledge, friendly, and on time as promised.
Matt was fantastic and extremely thorough. It was a much bigger job than we expected and he patiently resolved the issues.
Anthony was professional, kind, easy to work with, and clearly loves his craft. He was very thorough in his review of our situation, explained options, and guided me to a comfortable solution. His work was clean and impeccable, and the after images showed an attention to detail and no corners cut. He spent a lot of…
We had a kitchen sink pipe break resulting in water rushing onto the floor. Bryan Sanders responded to our emergency call and was able to replace old pipes under the sink and fix the problem. All this occurred between around 8:00 pm and 10:30 pm. We are VERY happy with Bryan's great work and how he explained what…

Started having major water pressures in my kitchen sink late in the day Wednesday and was able to get someone out first thing on Thursday. Mike Glavin helped me out with the faucet and identified the means to mitigate further plumbing issues with the town water supply that could result in additional repairs at my…
Juan arrived on time with a great attitude and helped to fix a broken water main pipe in our front yard. He fixed the primary leak and the secondary valve that prevented the water from running well. He wore shoe covers, explained the exact cause of the leak when he came in the house he left the areas he worked in clean.
Ellis was great. Very respectful and cared about the job. Thank you Ellis!
Bryan was amazing if I could give 10 stars I would

Very personable and…

Michael G did a super job on repairing my water issue. Fast, informative, and very professional. I would recommend Michael and Sons in a heartbeat!
Ryne did an amazing thorough and timely repair of the leak in my crawl space. If I have another issue, I prefer to work with Ryne.
Ryne and Jordan were both courteous and professional when they responded to plumbing emergency calls on a weekend. I recommend the company and their experts.
Ryne called when he was on his way and was on the earlier side of his appointment time. He made suggestions and listened to our needs and in the end resolved our main issue. After the appointment, I noticed another problem outside that he handled quickly for me with no charge and offered suggestions of DIY things I…
