His response was so quick that we could have it fixed very shortly. He completed the work so gently and efficiently. I’d like to ask him again if any plumbing issue happens.

Everything went great. My water heater broke on Friday night. I put out a few messages for plumbers on Angie's List, and Shimon got back to me right away. I heard back from some other plumbers as well, but Shimon was able to do it the soonest and at the best price. Couldn't ask for more. He arrived at 10:30 a.m. Saturday morning and replaced the water heater, hauling the old one away. Very personable and professional. Highly recommend! I will use again when I need any plumbing services.

gas leak repair

Very well. Timely and efficient, extremely polite. Highly recommended.
Description of Work: We discovered gas leak from basement pipes on Tuesday. Gas company shut off gas. We called several plumbers and Shimon had the earliest availability. He came later the same afternoon to check out the problem, gave us a quote, and was back early Wednesday (today) with his assistant and the necessary city permit. The pipes are old and the configuration complex. He disassembled the gas pipes and junctions and reconnected them with proper seals at the joints, replacing a couple of sections that could not be re-used. Job was completed by noon, he had scheduled the city inspector for 1pm, and we had our sign-off by 1:30.

He was prompt, responsive, cleaned up all around the job. He came in person to give an estimate which others are not always willing to do for a small job and the project was on budget. We thought we needed to replace one of the toilets but he fixed the old one instead. We would definitely hire him again.

Fantastic. First, Shimon came first thing in the morning during the blizzard, which in and of itself is above and beyond great service! Upon removal of the shower panel to access the control valves and shower head, Shimon found that the replacement part we had was for a newer model (and we weren't likely to find the old part). He creatively found a solution to put on the new piece, and was able to fix our leak AND prevent us from having to completely replace our shower panel. Shimon is responsive, punctual, and also just a really nice guy. We highly recommend him and are glad to have found our plumber.
Description of Work: We had a leaky shower head, but it was on a big, older shower panel that had to be removed and taken apart to investigate the problem/cause.

Aviksis was amazing. He picked up as soon as I called him and scheduled an estimate assessment within 2 days. He provided an estimate immediately and it was over 500$ cheaper than at least one another estimate. He completed the job two days later. He was punctual, responsive at all times, professional and considerate. The work was excellent and completed in less than half a day. Essentially this was all done (from phone call to finish) within less than a week whereas other plumbers took longer to just get back to us regarding an estimate and one just kept pushing back his availability over the course of weeks. We are so thankful that we found Aviksis and we will definitely choose Aviksis again.
Description of Work: Gas oven and dishwasher hook-up with new gas connection and re-piping respectively.

Called Aviksis Plumbing. He said, I can come out but it is a simple fix. He told me what to do on the phone and I fixed it. Honesty by him was terrific. I will call with future jobs (paying!) for this guy!

Shimone was very responsive and professional. Had a reoccurring faucet leak that he addressed but it was really a manufacturer's defect. He provided useful suggestions to deal with the manufacturer based on his experience. Ultimately, we got frustrated with the manufacturer (not Shimone) and bought a new faucet which he installed well. Overall, very happy with Shimone and would recommend him to others.

Aviksis Plumbing is absolutely the BEST! I called them after starting with another plumber who started the job and then went AWOL once the work required breaking into the ceiling. Mr. Aviksis fit me in quickly to assess the issue and then came back to fix the problem. He ultimately had to return a couple of times in order to fix the pipe. Despite this, he stood by the initial price quoted even when I enquired about paying him more. I was highly impressed and will be using Aviksis from now on for all my plumbing needs.

Great. No problems since his work was done. He didn't mind me pestering him with questions. We commiserated about pedestal sinks. He was considerate about messes & dirty shoes, etc. The invoice was within the verbal estimate.
Description of Work: Two identical pedestal sinks had two different leaks. One was after I had spent far too much money and effort trying to "fix" it myself. Y'know - in a misguided effort to save money... On his first visit he checked everything to estimate what he'd need and how long it'd take. On the second visit he made repairs.

Shimon promptly responded to my initial call, advised me to contact the water heater company to secure the correct part for repair, and quoted me a price for labor. He was flexible in willingness to install the new part as soon as it arrived via FedEx. He arrived promptly at the time he had set up and once he realized the job was easier than he originally thought, he modified his fee to approximately 50% of his original quote. All around, great service and professionalism and I would definitely contact him again in the future.

He did as he said without problem. The only negative is that he did not junk my old sink and toilet but I knew that before hiring him.
Description of Work: I ordered a bathroom vanity with drawers but the plumbing interfered with the drawers. Before hiring him I sent him a picture of the current plumbing. He understood the situation. He fixed the plumbing and installed the vanity and countertop. He also installed a new toilet.

It went well. Shimon is exceptionally easy to deal with and very accommodating. His installation cost was reasonable and he did an excellent job. Shimon even broke up the old toilets, put the pieces in my trash container then rolled it out to the curb, so I avoided a $50 removal fee to have him cart them away. About a week or two after the installation, I called Shimon because my sump pump did not go on. He was not "working" on that Saturday but lives close by so he dropped in to check it out. He quickly found and fixed the problem, and did not charge for the visit.

Shimon was very responsive, came out soon after we called him and took a look and told us what would be required. He came back out and fixed the issue in the time he told us and for less than he had quoted us. Very nice, very professional.

We like them very much. He's fabulous. The work done he has done had been extraordinary. Everything he came to fix he fixed and well. He was on time, pleasant to work with. He knew exactly what he was doing I had no doubts on his expertise. There was no mess. There was only one plumber that came out who happened to be the owner.
Description of Work: They put in instant hot dispenser into the granite. He also installed a kitchen sink.
