Spoke to Joe about replacing water shut-off valve under a sink: easy access, long straight copper pipe, should take 30 mins max may be an hour with wait for water to be turned back on -- a $300--$400 job. Joe said a minimum of $650 (not including tax), maybe higher! Joe might be a good plumber but his pricing is not for the average :)

Response from Joe the Plumber
[Member Name Removed] My apologies if you feel this way This is an absolutely absurd review which is based on a phone conversation and your knowledge of plumbing and pricing As I offered many times to come and look at job to give a proper estimate you insisted on a "ballpark" estimate Which you had received Again my apologies if you where unsatisfied But in the future please give all the facts Thank you

They came in 30 minutes as they said and fixed my toilet in 20 minutes. Two others i called refused to come on Friday afternoon. One offered to come TUESDAY! I told that guy "can you live in your house for 4 days without a toilet?" I left a message for Joe and came by right away. You guys rock and I appreciate you gave me a fair price

I have used Joe The Plumber (the Brooklyn Joe The Plumber) for 3 separate problems. In all 3 cases Joe arrive on time, did the work cleanly and professionally and did not try to claim that the plumbing required more work that which was actually needed (a problem I have run into before with other plumbers). Will I use him again? ABSOLUTELY!

I called Joe in the morning on May 14, 2017 and he called me back within minutes of my leaving a message for him. Joe told me that he would send one of his employees to take care of the problem that very afternoon, arriving between 2:00 p.m. and 3:00 p.m. Sure enough, at around 2:30 p.m. an employee of Joe's named Giovanni showed up at my apartment and fixed the problem capably and efficiently, replacing the corroded pipes with new piping and even installing a beautiful new sink strainer to replace the old, partially corroded, one.
Description of Work: The water pipes under my kitchen sink became corroded and leaky and so I could not use the sink.

Joe was great with communication, providing advice and discussing the installation of my new hot water heater. He came by on schedule to see my hot water heater set up and to provide an estimate, **a free estimate**. (One thing that drives me crazy with some plumbers is you have to pay them $80-$100 for simply stopping by your house for 10 minutes to confirm that your 20 yo water heater needs replacement) After deciding that I wanted Joe to do the work I called and we set an appointment for the following week. Joe and his crew were on time, professional and efficient. They installed the new HWH and took care of a broken hose supply for my backyard, I was very happy with the work and I thought it was done for a fair price. Would definitely call Joe again.
Description of Work: Remove and replace old hot water heater and repair hose bib for backyard.

i called Joe, for a job regarding, replacing my gas / steam boiler. at our meeting, he seemed very helpful, understanding and fair, but because he didn't try to calculate correctly , for the correct boiler replacement, and just went with the exact / same old boiler INCORRECT , and because of this and other reasons, he did NOT give me a fair price ( an actual difference of about $1500, that's with my smaller boiler size, given as a fact ), so i decided to go with another heating boiler professional . today, i tried hiring JOE, for another job, but since he remembered , who i was, he tried to GOUGE me for $300, as a way of some IMMATURE and UNPROFESSIONAL payback, after he told me, of his plan of action, i explained to him, what i just wrote, so his final action, was to hang up on me. sooooooooooooooooo Very Sad. since he has many positive reviews, i hope this was just some misunderstanding, a bad day, or just a poor act of judgement , on his part. as we all have them. so good luck joe, and happy christmas and the upcoming holidays , for you and your family.

Description of Work: We have called Joe several times and he has always done an excellent job.. This last time he was unable to come to our home because of a scheduling conflict but gave us his professional opinion on what he thought the issue was and what needed to be done. He referred us to someone else who solved our problem and it was exactly what Joe had suspected.
