Dave has gone above and beyond to help improve my home. I’ve hired him to complete numerous projects for me (painting, interior drywall work, demo rot, plumbing, installation) and his quality of work is excellent. I am beyond happy with the new water heater and bathroom shower faucet he selected within my budget. Dave is incredibly smart and always shows up with a smile on his face ready to get to work. I am thankful my neighbor referred him to me and would absolutely use his services again in the future. Thank you, Dave!

I would recommend this guy to anybody. He's professional, he know what he is talking about. He explained everything to me as he was doing it and he waited until the hot water heater was completely heated up before he left my home to make sure that we had hot water before he left.

Dave was fantastic. He replied to my inquiry quickly, I think within the hour of placing it. We discussed the situation (no hot water) and arranged for him to take a look the next morning. After seeing the project and sizing up what was necessary for the fix, he located the replacement tank and parts. What made things tricky was the location of the broken tank which was under the staircase in a small closet. Plus the particular water heater needed was not a full size, it was a shorter model, 35 gallons. Dave was thorough, tidy and explained everything. Matter of fact, we had several great conversations during the day about a variety of topics unrelated to home repairs. It was a pleasure working with Dave and I will call him again when needed. I recommend that you contact Dave to discuss your project. His years of construction and plumbing experience and his wealth of knowledge are wonderful.

Dave replaced our water heater which was connected to our oil fired boiler, with a new electric hot water tank. We had no problems. Very professional installation.
Description of Work: Dave replaced our water heater. It was a bit tricky as we already had a solar hot water system to preheat our water. The project was completed in one day according to the contract. Dave cleaned up everything before he left. It was a pleasure to work with Dave.

Excellent. Could not have been better. Dave came on a Saturday with very short notice and did a beautiful job, for all of which we were extremely grateful. The new pipes also look much more neat and professional than the old ones. He also helped us with a couple of unrelated issues (raising/leveling new stove; trickier than it sounds) and repairing kitchen drawer glides)--did a beautiful job with these, too.

Dave did two extraordinary jobs for us by (1) analyzing the problem and devising a viable solution to a long problematic kitchen and bathroom intermittent back-ups by designing and reconstructing the PVC drainage routing and (2) locating a hidden leakage in our indoor ("Endless Pool") swimming pool and devising/reconstructing a water-tight replacement spa jet that solved the problem (after two previous contractors were unable to do so.) The work on each project involved creative analysis of complex circumstances, considerable attentiveness to the respective problems, and completion in a timely fashion. Dave provided clear explanations of the work needed, the alternatives available, and the actual work being done. In each case, the results were outstanding, as was the reasonableness of the pricing.
Description of Work: Two terrific jobs were done: (1) analyzing, identifying & repairing home plumbing system problems, and (2) replacing and repairing/reconstructing leaking swimming pool waterjet system

Everything was finished timely and Dave alway cleaned up. I met Dave by accident, had just found out my water softener had filled up with water and was at Home Depot getting sand when I saw Daves truck outside, asked him if he knew anything about water softeners and was he available, he got back to me very soon and started working on my problem. I would feel very confident having Dave do any plumbing job.

Dave is a true professional. From beginning to end, he communicated what the job would entail and what we could expect. He showed up when he said he would and accommodated my schedule. Dave is very friendly and I felt comfortable having him in my home. The job was completed on time and for the quoted amount. My husband and I are very happy with our newly renovated bathroom. We only wish we had found him sooner!

Dave is a racist and white supremacist and I would not recommend him to anyone. We had an appointment for him to come to my house to give me a quote on a sink install. He shows up late in a fancy red sports car, gets out of the car and starts walking towards my house. He gets about half way to my front door and sees the "Black Lives Matter" sign on the side of the path. He immediately stops and turns around. He apparently didn't know that I saw all of this from my window. He never contacts me after our meeting time had passed. I texted him asking him what time he would arrive and then he texts me back that he is too busy to take my job even though he was the one who reached out to me and he chose the appointment date and time. He acted like he was just too busy all of a sudden when he had already come to my house and left. He never even knocked on the door, met me, or looked at the job. He did not want the job because he is so racist that he didn't even want to work for someone who believes that the lives of black Americans should matter. He is so disgusting. I would never want someone like him in my house.

The work that Dave did was absolutely superb! He worked with us to come up with the best solution and even though we had an idea of what we wanted to do, he often made suggestions on other options which was helpful. His workmanship is impressive and obviously strives for perfection. We now have a plumber for life!

I have now had Dave at my home on three separate occasions to conduct various plumbing tasks. He was very responsive to my needs including being flexible on scheduling and providing emergency service at the drop of a hat. He listened to what we wanted to to complete with our projects during walkthroughs, provided detailed cost estimates and delivered excellent service. Dave goes out of his way to complete tasks the correct way. All projects were completed in a professional manner and all work areas were thoroughly cleaned before he left. I would recommend Dave to anyone who wants great quality work from an honest provider.

Dave is a pleasure to work with. He is prompt, knowledgeable, honest, reliable and a genuinely nice guy. He has installed a dryer vent, fixed my toilet, added a whole house water softener and did a major re-piping to alleviate freezing water lines to my pot filler and refrigerator ice maker. Dave is good at what he does and cleans up after himself, too! I would highly recommend Dave’s Plumbing to anyone needing plumbing work done.

Dave is a super great guy and I am lucky to had found him. The plumbing in this house has not been touched in decades and it showed. He replaced my hot water tank, installed a whole house water filter, he removed a bunch of unnecessary pipes and valves and simplified the plumbing. Also installed the toilet and and kitchen faucet. It has been almost a month since the work was completed and no issues. Dave is super knowledgeable and has attention to detail. He is my go to for all my plumbing needs here in Stephentown. He does it right the first time. Thank you for all your hard work and I highly recommend Dave for any plumbing needs.

Despite the fact that we couldn't do a complete replacement and or a permanent solution, we were able to come to terms of a moderate temporary fix due to budget constraints. Pending the professionalism and the outcome of the temporary fix would determine future business. Dave did a spectacular job, when he finished it looked better than before everything worked and you could not tell that he was even there. A real down to earth guy, enjoyed his company, I would even have a beer with him sometime. Our experiences in the construction business meshed well and we understood each other. Especially when I nailed he estimate he hadn't even quoted me at the time. I plan on using Dave again.

Dave called and showed up when expected. He analyzed the problem and explained the fix. We have one bathroom and a barely functioning toilet is not something we could put up with. Dave rebuilt the toilet and fixed the problem. It was a good turn key operation. It was pricey and if rated as a separate element price would be B. Overall pleased with workmanship and parts used. Would hire again.
