My house was built in1978 and still had the original four hose valve assemblies. Over the years wear and tear took its toll, and finally, when all four were leaking constantly, I grudgingly acknowledged it was time to replace them. Even though I could have replaced them myself, just knowing I had to shut the main water valve to do so, made me rethink the project. One little mistake, and Murphy's Law would have definitely ruined my day. Better to let a pro handle it. Pulled up Angie's and started my search. Didn't take long. Found "Gary The Plumber." Read the reviews and liked what I saw. Called Gary Monday, set appointment for Wednesday early AM. Got a courtesy call Wenesday morning from Gary, said he was running a little late and would be here shortly. Half hour later the dogs let me know he had arrived. Went out to greet him, friendly introductions, and then we walked around the house. We had a few laughs at the condition of the valves, two of which were still half covered with 35 year old stucco material. Gary suggested the best method of replacement and gave me the cost of the job. I had a figure in mind that I thought would be fair. Looking in his professionally outfitted van, considering his entire career was in plumbing, and liking the fact that he personally did all his own work, I was mentally budgeting $250,+/- for the job. When he said it would take under an hour and run me $180, including parts, labor, and warranty I was very happy to get out of his way and let him go to work. He was okay with my keeping him company while he worked. He updated me on some of the new advances in plumbing materials and techniques, all the while methodically chipping away ancient stucco, removing the old valves, cleaning and prepping, and sweating on new adaptors. The last part was putting on the new 1/4 turn valves, opening the main water valve, and testing for leaks, and proper operation. Success! Excellent work ethic, lifetime of experience, friendly guy, reliable, honest and very affordable.That's Gary The Plumber.
Description of Work: Replaced four hose bibs. Installed brass, 1/4 turn, threaded valves, into new copper soldered adaptors. This allows for simple DIY replacement in the future, if necessary.

Went great. I called Gary the week before because one of my toilets would not flush. Set an appointment for 9 a.m. on 8/19. He showed up on time, fixed the one toilet and suggested replacing the same part in the other toilet as well. Under $10 for the part. At the same time I showed him a new faucet that I had bought the day before for the kitchen. He said he could replace that as well. Everything went very well. Gary is very professional, on time and budget wise great. He was in and out in an hour. I would definitely use him again and would recommend him highly..

We were experiencing heavy rain the morning of the service call. Gary didn't hesitate to go up on the roof to snake the drain for the washer getting soaked in the process. 30 minutes later, the issue was solved.
Description of Work: Our kitchen sink would fill up when the washer was on. The sinks would start to overflow with black water .

Gary was at my home at the agreed upon time and repaired my toilet quickly and efficiently! I called him some hours later and asked him if he could do some spigot repairs in my new home and he came over within a few hours and completed the job. I would highly recommend Gary to my family and friends. His professionalism and knowledge make him an asset to anyone's home phone book in case you need a plumber to do any repairs. His prices were very reasonable and he cleaned up the job very nicely! Thanks Gary for a wonderful job well done!

Gary attempted to remove shower tower by cutting through caulking. However, it was installed in such a way that the drywall in the bedroom would have to be removed to access the frame of shower tower. He gave it a wonderful attempt but wasn't able to remove the tower.
Description of Work: Gary came by for a free estimate to see if he could repair the shower tower in master bath. The job would have been more work than I was prepared to have done. The estimate was free, Gary was "over the top" professional and kind and if I were to decide to handle that job, would call him back in a New York minute!

I purchased the BIG DEAL coupon for plumbing install of a garbage disposal which I bought already. Gary came the same day I called him. He installed the new disposal and additionally fixed a leak that the other side of the sink had. He also replaced the strainer. All of this work for only $99; Will gladly use again!

I bought a coupon for services listed. I needed a garbage disposal installed. I called; he said he was in area and could be there in the afternoon. Promised to call 1/2 before arriving and he did. He did the work, picked up all boxes, debris, old disposal and disposed of it, leaving my kitchen looking like nothing had happened....no mess at all! He was very professional...and done in no time. I would use his service again!

Gary is great. I plan to use him as my regular plumber from here on out. I've had some other plumbing work done since moving into this home and haven't been nearly as happy. When you call those larger companies, you can get a different person every time and they just don't have the same attitude about what they're doing. Gary has his own company and really cares about provided the best quality work. He's very professional and pleasant to work with. I feel safe that when I call him again, I'll get good work for a very fair and good price. Highly recommend.
Description of Work: I had Gary change the faucet out in my kitchen (twice) and fix the broken drain assembly in a bathtub. The faucet had to be changed twice because the first one I had was defective. He worked on it for quite awhile before determining that it wasn't going to work properly. I called the company and got a new one. When he came back to install the new one and work on the tub, he didn't charge me re-do the faucet. Which I expected to pay for. It takes awhile to change out these new faucets, and you have climb under the sink in not the most comfortable positions. I thought this was extremely nice of him

Not good. He couldnt repair the shower we asked him to because he was afraid he would break it, and the faucet he fixed ended up being very hard to turn and leaked worse than it originally did.

Gary was great. He came out the same afternoon I called him - fixed the problems I'd called him about; provided parts that I didn't know we needed and charged a fair price. He was very professional and i wouldn't hesitate to call him again.
Description of Work: Gary put a leaky toilet back together that we had tried to fix ourselves (and only made things worse!); he provided a shut off valve that had been capped so that you had to go outside to turn off the water - now we can do it ourselves conveniently inside like most normal households; then he replaced some fixtures in the bathtub/shower that had not been working and had rendered the shower useless for quite some time. Essentially, Gary gave us back our second bathroom!

I called Gary's cell, left a message and he called right back. Very attentive and very fast! He had a job in our neighborhood so was able to fit us in that same day. He knew exactly what kind of tub faucet we had and had the part needed to fix it. He was in and out in no time and got the job done. We'd definitely call him again.

He did a great job. He explained everything with the new, modern faucet for us. There were also some other small leaks around that I mentioned to him and he was able to take a look at them. It was a small extra fee but he was able to take care of all of our needs.

Gary was absolutely fantastyic. I called him on a Thursday and he said he would call me back the next day. As promised he did call on Friday and he said he could come on Saturday. He was punctual and professional. He fixed everything I asked for and even suggested to change some rubber hoses for the washer and dryer. He replaced them with high quality steel hoses and was done in less than half hour. I strongly recommend Gary and I would definitely use his services again.

It went perfectly. Courteous and professional with no hassles.
Description of Work: I called Gary to repair a leak below a toilet. He discussed the problem courteously and professionally, gave me an estimate and an expected date and time to do the repair. He was on time and found that the prior installer of the toilet did not seat it properly on the wax gasket.. The repair was done quickly and neatly. I am very pleased with Gary's work and will call him for my next plumbind repair.

I have used this company twice. The first time he replaced a garbage disposal for me. He did it at a reasonable price and was prompt. The unit was installed without any further problem. Now, just a few days ago I called him for several minor repairs such as a bath drain, noise in the pipes and toilet that made horrible noises. He came when promised and did all three repairs at a reasonable price. However, after he left I noticed that the toilet was refilling over and over which it hadn't done before he'd fixed it (although the noise problem was gone. I emailed him because it was late at night when I discovered the problem. First thing in the morning he left me a voice mail promising to return that same day and resolve the issue. He did show up as promised, spent some time getting additional materials and successfully resolved the issue. I was very happy that this company stands by its work in such a professional way without any complaints.
