Juan is a very good guy and was very helpful.
I was scheduled quickly for same day - Elis was fantastic, he took the time to not only explain the issue with my hose bib, but also show me how it failed. The replacement was fast, and everything is working as needed again. Thank you!
Peter and Francis did good, quick, professional work. They diagnosed what two exterior pipes were on our house, and they capped an exterior spigot. Quick and easy for me, which I appreciate.
Elis was just great! Repeat visit for a different issue. Efficient and knowledgeable. Replaced the outside spigot without an issue!

June 20, 2026 ★★★★★ We’ve been customers of Michael & Son for nearly 20 years, both in Chapel Hill and at our Northern Virginia condo, and they continue to earn our trust. Most recently, they corrected a faulty bathtub faucet that had been installed during a lengthy bathroom remodeling project involving multiple…
Another faucet handle leaking. Worn cartridge. Decided to replace others as well since I at aatter of time. Requested Angel since he has done excellent work for us. Angel called on his way with ETA. He had the the 3 faucet handles done in a 90 minutes. It wasn't an emergency, but we got an appointment next day. That's very nice as well. Thanks.
Jordan Joseph, who did several plumbing related jobs, was excellent. He kept me posted, answered all the questions. He was very timely, patient and even came back on our request for some change, without any fuss. Would recommend him strongly.
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…
Great service

Great work by Michael, Aladdin, Yovan and Houston!
Very quick response for an emergency plumbing issue. Josh was professional and experienced. Very polite and meticulous in his work and cleanup. We will definitely call when we need plumbing service.
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.
Came right in time and was very professional. Every person we have ever worked with from this company has been excellent.

Ask for Andrew! Great work courteous professional and cares about his handiwork!
Travis was an extremely nice gentleman, well spoken and very competent in his assessment of the scope of work that needed to happen at our location. We felt very confident in Travis's skills and we happily agreed to have him do the work needed at our place.
Michael and Sons Thomas Hyatt was the most professional and knowledgeable service technician! His troubleshooting thought process was very sound and logical. He utilized all of his resources to attack the issue.
I had a maintenance agreemeny and Brandon did a thorough job of checking my HVAC system. He even identified an issue with mold and showed me possible solutions to eliminate it. Great job Brandon.
I have felt well taken care of by Michael and sons! All my plumbers that have helped us have been fantastic, really giving me the time to ask all my silly questions and to double check were cared for! Christopher, Shane, John, and Thomas have just been so outstanding!!! Add salah zaitoun to the list of amazing people!
My husband and I agrees that Yovan does excellent work! Very professional mannerism and respectful. He is honest and we had no problems whatsoever. We will definitely put in a good word for his service to everyone that we know! We had a pleasant experience with Michael and sons!
Ryne is amazing!!! He fixed our water heater and even though he couldn’t fix every problem he made sure to leave us as comfortable as he could. He cleaned up the excess water under our sink and replaced our water heater damages. He was really a lifesaver!!! I would recommend this kind gentleman to anyone for any plumbing issues.
Both crews, Gaspack and Furnace/AC, were very good. They worked hard and steady. They finished a little ahead of schedule. Tyler kept me informed and explained every thin when they were finished. They cleaned up at the end and it was like they were never here except the new systems work great.
Great job! Very friendly, explains everything, took time to keep the house clean. We’re very happy with Michael and Sons. Highly recommend!
Joshua was fantastic - was very professional, took the time to explain his repairs, and would highly recommend!
Called Michael & Sons at the suggestion of our daughter. Really glad we followed her recommendation. Josh was the technician who served us. He was very knowledgeable, personable, and helpful.

Had a great experience with our plumber, Jon Ryckman. Super knowledgeable and thorough.

Josh Lucas is professional and knowledgeable. He addressed our needs and performed work well. I e have been pleased with Michael and Sons for many years.
Daniel arrived very professional accessed the issues and completed in a timely fashion. Will use him again
Made a request online Friday night for a plumbing issue, Luis came first thing Saturday morning. He not only worked to fix the issue of a defective FloodStop, he went the extra mile to reroute the pipe so that it’s easier for future plumbers to get at if the problem ever recurs. Great service!
Would highly recommend Michael & Sons, they explain everything prior to starting. Was the best service I have had in a long time.
Very satisfied with service for a leaking/broken hot water heater. Crew was very responsive and worked throughout the day to install a new one. Thorough explanation of the new system. 10 out of 10.
Our technician, Ryan, from Michael & Sons fixed our water pressure, showerhead, and filtration issues quickly and efficiently. He was able to address all of our concerns, including fixing my kitchen sink water pressure which wasn’t even on my list. He also recommended a cost effective filtration system. Ryan was…
I’ve had 2 plumbing emergencies and their 24/7 operators as well as Travis their technician have been on time and know exactly what they’re doing. Great company!!
Frank went above and beyond to help us find and repair a leaky pipe.
Excellent service
Fabian did an excellent job on the two issues we had noted. He was courteous, professional, friendly. Would highly recommend.
Had a weekend plumbing emergency (damaged shower valve) and got 24-hour service to replace the valve (starting at 6:30 pm, finished by 8:00 pm) so that we could turn the house water back on. Unfortunately, it was very expensive ($1,900) and the only choice of fixtures was of lower quality and doesn't match. Also,…
Price was a more than expected but Jay Carter arrived on time, same day service, and his prompt assessment, fixed the issue and we were back in business to have running water once again. If i ever need a plumber I will definitely request Jay!
Jason is an asset for your company. He’s helpful, polite, and professional.
Petey and John aware the ultimate professionals and are an absolute asset to Michal and Son. Both the original shower valve concern and an additional hose spigot were fixed perfectly and clean up was great.
Fabian from Michael and sons came out and diagnosed the problem in a timely fashion and was very professional
Too expensive for a simple tub faucet replacement and did not honor web coupon.
Of the plumbers I called out to take a look at my issue, Michael's and Sons responded the quickest. Travis was courteous and knew exactly what the problem was and fixed it quickly and efficiently. I asked him to add one more repair on and he did it without hesitation. The annual membership for servicing was a pretty…
Plumber was awesome
John Howell was fabulous and did the job quick!
Jason did an excellent job, very informative and very friendly
This is the third time that I have used Micheal and Son Services for a major service during remodeling my house. Each time they have been prompt, professional, and completed the job the day after I called them. Highly recommend the company.
One of our outdoor spigots was leaking and while trying to repair the leak with a wrench, I made the leak worse. Never fear, even on a Saturday, because Michael & Sons was open and responsive and sent out a technician in short order. Luis R came out and was very professional, helpful, and effective. The whole spigot…
Just had them come out to fix a leaking shower faucet and drain spout, the plumber Jason called me and was there earlier then expected, explained everything in laymen terms and was very professional, would highly recommend there services.
I had a leak in my trailer and Andrew came and found it and fixed it. The service was exceptional. Thank you!😃
I could not speak more highly of my experience with Michael & Sons. The representative I spoke with on the phone was succinct and polite. I was notified that the technician was running late due to another job an hour before my window was even up. Our technician Luis Rivera was very professional, very kind, and very quick. Highly recommend!
Josh was excellent, identified the problem, pretty much straight away and went through the options to solve it. Very professional plumber.
Frank did a great job!!!
We got a leaky outside spigot replaced the next day after we called- the tech was friendly, clear about the options and super quick. Fabian was the tech and we would request him again!
Juan Castillo was awesome. I would highly recommend him and will definitely call for any future needs.

Very courteous, professional, punctual, and overall helpful in a stressful situation. Frank goes above and beyond and always reach out to him for any related to plumbing.
We had a water heater fail, and Fabian took care of it and replaced it in just a few hours!
Fabian was great for some plumbing issues I was having! He was prompt, communicative, and had great suggestions for cost savings and other upkeep! I've used this company many times and pleased each time!
Rhyne was actually a little early which I appreciated since we had no water. He explained as he went since the repair became more complicated but he finished it up, cleaned up and made sure we were happy with it. Our first time using Michael & Sons but they are our “go to” now.
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!
They did great work. Wish they had a payment plan
Frank showed up on time even though my phone was screening his arrival call, he persisted because he knew it was urgent. Ended up being an easy fix for him and he did a great job.
The plumber was very respectful, helpful and did an excellent job!
Frank did a great job. Came by earlier than anticipated on a Saturday and (as far as I can tell) did impeccable work.
Josh came and fixed an outdoor fixture that had a tricky issue. Quick and professional service.
What a JOKE! Our hot water heater pipe was leaking. We paid for the emergency service call which turned out to be $280. The technician told us that to fix the leaking pipe it would be $1100. I looked up thr parts and saw that they were only $50. He then tried to scare us by saying that he could not come back until…
Frank was on time anf very professional. He was very knowledgeable and clear with his qoute. He also helped me understand the process to do the job right and instructed very clearly the steps to get the job done right. I appreciate a professional when it comes to my house and he fit that profile completely. Thank you Frank :)
Michael and Son has been excellent to work with! They text confirmations of your appointment window, then text you confirmation with a photo of the repair person who will be coming out to your home, and they call you as they are headed to your home. Juan, the plumber who helped us today was amazing - he was prompt…
Had a Great experience with this company and our technician. Came the same day and took care of the issue. Technician was very friendly,knowledgeable and helpful 👏🏾 👍🏿
I’m editing my star rating and review: Although Fabian was knowledgeable and professional he said he was going to get someone out to us Monday after 4pm to check the water damage for organic growth and apparently never did follow through and schedule that follow up and when we called, the company had no record of us…
Great service!
Frank did awesome at solving my water pressure issues.
Frank Castaneda did great work!!
Frank was very professional and did a great job
Very satisfied. Petey was great. Very professional, knowledgeable and courteous. He took care of two issues in our house that another company couldn't or wouldn't deal with for 9 months. Definitely will use your company again.
David R. was great to work with. His professionalism and attention to detail was A+. Same day service with a water leak was handled quickly and he explained every step of the project. Keep up the great work.
Communication with the company is great. Our technician was timely, friendly and knowledgeable. Fixed the problem quickly.
Replaced cast iron drain pipe with PVC. Charged over 3k for removal and 20 feet of PVC. Didn’t clean up the cast iron was left under the house. Also didn’t use proper sealant so the PVC pipe leaked. Called and left messages no response. Had to have another company verify their shabby work. The other licensed…
Repair technician was at my house within an hour of my call. Promptly resolved the issue and went above and beyond to make sure new fixture was working properly. Outstanding service,and I will most definitely use them again.
Juan. Very professional and well mannered. On time. Explained procedure. Overall excellent 👌 service.
Excellent service, on time, very fast and professional work. Would give a higher rating but $612 for 30 minutes of work was WAY too high.
Josh was super helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable. He fixed our water heater quickly! Thanks!
I called to have a hot water heater recirculating valve installed. The quote they gave me included replacing unrelated hardware such as the cold water valve and dishwasher valve under the sink at a charge of $150 per valve. This is more than 3 times the going rate. All told, what should have been a 1 hour…
Frank was prompt, knowledgeable and very professional and got our water heater working again after the extreme cold weather. Highly recommend!
Very professionally performed assessment of work that needs to be completed in various bathrooms in the house.
First experience using Michael and Sons. Their technician Frank Castaneda was fantastic. Frank diagnosed and repaired our faulty gas water heater. Frank was professional as well as being courteous andl friendly. Will certainly use Michael and Sons for future plumbing work and will definitely ask for Frank.
Josh called and arrived on time. He fixed the kitchen faucet with ease and was courteous and efficient. He checked with me if there was any other problems he could help with
The tech Angel was really nice and professional he let us know everything That needed to be done and pricing..Nice man. I will use this company again
Thomas, the plumber, was very fast and expedient about figuring out the problem (broken pipe in the wall and worn out water supply valve, fill valve, and flapper) and fixing it. He was open to answering our questions and concerns during the process. He quoted us before proceeding with anything to make sure that we…
Same day service!! repaired a burst pipe in the ceiling within an hour! very reasonable price and they kept me informed throughout the service.
From the moment I scheduled my appointment they were so polite and good customer service. The service was great and the guys were very polite and professional. They came at the time they had said. Explained in detail what needed to be repaired. Would definitely call again. Thank y'all
Paid 70 bucks for a technician to not even look at my bathroom faucet before quoting me 400+ dollars to fix a drip. He wasn’t even out of my driveway before I had already booked a local handyman who said he could fix it for less than 200.
We had the indoor leaky main shutoff valve replaced along with one of the rusted toilet water hoses. Ryan was courteous, on time and did a nice job to fix the issues.
Michael and son are always very professional and efficient. This is a awesome company. I will always use them.
