Bonafide Plumbing is very professional. From scheduling the appointment to the actual work, they were responsive and professional. They called to say they were running late before the appointment and they showed up when they said they would. I totally recommend Bonafide Plumbing and am happy to have someone I know will do the job well.
Description of Work: The bathroom hot water pipe had not been working for some time. I anticipated having to replace the pipe but the problem was resolved within 15 minutes or less. I was very relieved. They also cleaned the water take-out pipe on my washing machine. It had been backing up and overflowing back onto the floor. They snaked the outside section of the pipe and replaced the cap so should it happen again, there will be easy access to repairs. All this was done in less than an hour.

See above comments. I could not be happier.
Description of Work: Eddie moved my waste line from existing location to under ground and a new location. I was excavating out my basement and needed the sewer line moved. He had to jackhammer the concrete floor and also repaired the sewer line going out to the street. He also installed the new shower trim and sliding bar in our new bathroom. He arrived on time, was over the top professional and excellent at what he does. Plumbers can be very expensive, but his prices were very reasonable. The quality of his work speaks for itself. He does all the work himself including his own estimates. I would recommend this man to anyone looking for a plumber that is honest, on time, professional and attention to detail. In a world where there are so many tradespeople that cannot be trusted, it is a comfort to have found someone that I can trust to do a quality and professional job.

They were incredible. His price is reasonable. He was fast and showed up on the particular day, he's there. Actually, the first time I called him he showed up within about twenty minutes...he came like immediately. The pipe was leaking on my floor and water line of my fridge....he is awesome. I'm not saying that everybody will get that deal but it happened to me. I actually referred him to a couple of people too.
Description of Work: I used the plumbing service of Bonafide Plumbing. He fixed my shower that was leaking, sink and water line.

As my regular plumber and i had issues connecting for replacement of my poorly functioning toilet (kept leaking) i contacted Ed of Bonafide Plumbing on Monday. He arranged to come to my home Thurs morning @ 9. He showed up a few minutes early which i appreciated, came in and assessed the situation then got right down to replacing the toilet. He agreed that the dual flush model i had was problematic and that the Toto would be an excellent unit. He needed to do some minor repairs to the flange (which he did NOT charge me for- BONUS!!!) and afterwards explained some of the background of the Toto toilets (history, testing parameters, etc.). I felt his workmanship and attitude were excellent and will most decidedly call him back for any future plumbing work i need to have done.
Description of Work: Replaced a poorly functioning American Std dual flush, low flow toilet with a highly rated Toto.

Fantastic experience. Ed is a true professional and very pleasant to deal with. The day he came to my house he called to tell me he was on his way. He then hit traffic and called back to tell me he'd be a bit late. He got there about 5 minutes late. I was very impressed that he called (seems rare with companies these days) in the first place, and more impressed that he updated me even though he was well within the window that I consider on-time. He explained his proposal very clearly. It involved taking the pump to a place that rebuilds pump motors. That took about 2 hours, for which he did NOT charge me. He only charged for the time he was actually at my house working. The pump is now MUCH quieter and runs much less frequently, which were my two goals for the project. I will not hesitate to recommend Bonafide Plumbing to anyone who asks for a good plumber.
Description of Work: Repaired a water pressure booster pump, fixed connections, and tested unit.

The toilet in the master bath kept stopping up and overflowing. We had turned off the water and unplugged the toilet. I had not used Edward before and when I called, he responded as quickly as his schedule allowed. He told me when he thought he would be finished but ended up finishing earlier. He called and came right over. He checked and "snaked" all the lines, took the toilet off and resealed it, replaced the handle and flap in the tank. I also had him repair the faucet in the bath/shower which another plumber told us couldn't be done without taking out the marble backing. He also replaced a drain and toilet handle in another bathroom. He was very personable and explained what and why he was doing it as he went. He was very careful of the house when carrying the toilet in and out and everything was back where it belonged and spotless when he left. He left with the guarantee that he would be back if anything went wrong with what he had worked on. He was very professional and knew what he was doing.
Description of Work: Line check and clearance and resealing of toilet that kept stopping up and overflowing. Also repairs of water handle in bath/shower, another bathroom drain and toilet handle.

An old leaky and constantly running toilet needed immediate help because the ceiling directly beneath had become damp and moldy. I called some other people who were booked and could not come quickly, but Eddie was available right away. He was totally accommodating of my schedule, always polite, and extremely easy to work with. Eddie also helped me find the perfect replacement toilet, and was extremely careful not to scratch my walls when navigating the old and new commodes through my narrow stairway. And he charged me his cost for the new toilet, which made it really affordable. He'll be the only person I call the next time I need any plumbing services.
Description of Work: Diagnosed leaky toilet as a wax seal problem. When I said I wanted to replace the whole toilet with something more water-saving rather than just replace the seal, he picked up and installed the new unit and took the old one away.
