I am sorry that I have not submitted this review in a timely manner. I have been working long hours and overtime. Although the invoice states: overhauled toilet in hall bath; installed new tub spout with personal shower spray; parts and labor, there is more that Paul, Owner, did that is not listed on the Invoice. My Grandson had a rock/mountain climbing accident and fell 20 feet. On December 20, 2013, he had reconstructive surgery on his wrist/arm. I didn't learn until late on December 20, 2013 that my Grandson and my Daughter would be staying at my house for a few days while my Grandson recuperated. They were expected to arrive by noon. I called Paul, early on Saturday morning (December 21, 2013) and asked if he could have someone fix just the toilet and I could wait to have the tub spout and shower head replaced at another time as Saturday was Paul's day off. He said he would have someone at my place within the hour. He was there within 30 minutes. His employee was on another job so he came. I showed him my bathroom, parts everywhere, as I had tried to fix the toilet and faucet myself as I thought it was a simple task. In trying to fix the toilet myself, I had damaged some of the inner parts and integrity in the toilet tank. At one point, Paul thought the toilet would need to be replaced as it kept leaking. He was eventually able to stop the leak. I would like to add that I didn't have the correct toilet parts either, however, Paul had those parts in his truck. In addition, I didn't have the correct tub spout or shower head so Paul went to Home Depot and purchased the correct parts. The job was done in a timely manner. Paul has been my only plumber for several years. He is conscientious, honest, professional, personable, and reasonable. I highly recommend him and his company.
Description of Work: Invoice states: overhauled toilet in hall bath; installed new tub spout with personal shower spray; parts & labor.

He seemed knowledgable and professional. The pricing was reasonable. The problem did occur.
Description of Work: I had a leak in my bath tub/shower and he fixed it but he told me it would happen again because there was something inside the wall that was faulty.

Very knowledgeable about older houses. Price crept up a little unexpectedly with all the additional small tasks requested (I should have asked for updates during the repairs), but the diagnoses were accurate, work was done promptly and with no disruption.
Description of Work: Replaced leaky faucet, unclogged and adjusted bath drain, replaced toilet flapper valves, installed air switch for garbage disposal, re-routed dishwasher line.

They have been professional, punctual and competitively priced.
Description of Work: I've used Universal Plumbing several times, for plumbing repair of several leaks, glogged drains and gas supply. I wanted to use them for work at my new condo which is located on the 7th floor downtown. Paul took the time to check their insurance policy and was honest in telling me they were not covered above the 4th floor. I could use them this time but will use them again at my other property.
