Description of Work: We first used Pekny Plumbing 25 years ago when we had kitchen and bathroom remodeling done. Since then he has done maintenance work on various things in the house, ejector pump replacements, shower faucets, and leaky toilets. Every time has been similar, work done well, carefully, and thoughtfully. His prices are competitive, but the quality of his work is always premium.

plumbing
 + -1 moreThis is an odd entry, in that I didn't need to hire Joe Pekny because he answered my question free of charge over the phone. Briefly, we just moved into a rehabbed house and had heard what sounded like water dripping from the bathroom on the top floor onto the ceiling of the bathroom on the bottom floor. Made us very uncomfortable. At the recommendation of a friend, we called Joe Pekny. He returned our call promptly, listened carefully to my description of the issue, and then said something like, "I don't think it's water. I think your hot water pipe is expanding when you shower upstairs and when it expands it's rubbing against some ceiling materials. I've had several clients who have said it sounds just like drops of water." He then gave us a test we could perform to make sure. He was right. So this tells me that Joe is both smart and honest and not out to make a quick buck. Believe me, he's our plumber from now on.
Description of Work: Answered a question on a critical issue.

drain cleaning
 + -1 moreWe had a water heater go out late on a Friday and Joe was able to get a replacement for us that same day. Joe does great work. We've hired Pekney plumbing for a number of projects and we've always been happy with the results. On a few occasions the issue ended up being significantly less than what we originally anticipated. Rather than take advantage of the situation like some people might Joe explained everything and saved us time and money.

drain cleaning
 + -1 moreA month after the installation my neighborhood had torrential rains and flooded basements. The pilot on the water heater went out. I called Pekny to relight the water heater. He came out, pushed a button and charged me $50 dollars. This after charging me an exhoritant amt for the heater. I am an elderly person living alone and I feel taken advantage of. I will never use him again.
Description of Work: I called Pekny plumbing because my water heater had problems. He quoted me $800.00. I found this excessive but desperate for hot water I bought it.

 + 0 moreJoe is a professional. He did not cut any corner to save time. His all attitude was get the job done right. Very pleasant experience.
Description of Work: The drain in the basement sink was very slow draining the water. There was also same water back up from the same sink when using the first floor sinks. I tried to clean the blockage myself with little result. Joe clean the blockage till the catch basin then noticed some back up from the catch basin to the sewer and then decided to clean that, too. He found lots of tree roots. Now all drains work perfectly.
