Rob showed up right on time (to the minute) and was professional, courteous, and easy-to-understand from the second he walked in the door to the second he handed me the bill. He pointed out other things we hadn't considered without pressuring us to have them done and made helpful recommendations. He answered our questions on the more complicated items surrounding our gas fireplace and made the task of plugging the outside line as simple as possible (i.e., no drama). We will absolutely use Mako again (and will request Rob).
Description of Work: Inspected line into gas fireplace and plugged a separate feed to an outside barbecue.

We first found the leak when the floor in the basement was wet. It was slow at the start but started to increase as the day went by. I called my regular plumber but since is was saturday they were closed. Looking on angies list on sunday I found Mako had emergency service. I called and Mako could not come until monday as there help were on calls but would be there first thing.Jay came on time and spent the day fixing the problem. We were happy with his work.
Description of Work: I had a pin hole in a pipe in the wall between the first and second floor. Jay replaced both the cold and hot water pipes.

The hose spigot on the exterior of my home was leaking. Jay arrived during the planned time window, quickly diagnosed the cause of the leak and then described the problem to me in detail and how he planned to fix it. He was very courteous and took the time to educate me on some of the plumbing infrastructure in my home. He then performed the repair and the leak no longer exists. The cost of the service seemed fair to me. I would recommend this company to others.

Jay, the plumber Mako sent, did an excellent job repairing a leak from a bathtub drainpipe, which was coming through the kitchen ceiling. He arrived exactly on time, was extremely neat and careful (this is the first time I can say that about a contractor doing a major, messy job), finished up in a couple of hours (despite running into the kinds of problems that arise with old plumbing), and cleaned up the area. Jay was totally professional, explained everything he was doing, took a picture of the cracked connection with his cell phone and showed it to me before proceeding with the work; and when his first approach to the problem didn't work, he explained why and showed me what he would do instead. Maybe not everyone would want to hear all the details of a plumbing repair, but I did; so I appreciated that he took the time to explain without my asking him to. Was it a fair price? I don't know. It was affordable, and you could say a professionally done job is priceless. (Two weeks before, I had had a bad experience with a tree trimming crew who were thoroughly unprofessional; so it was a relief to deal with a responsible person this time.) I will definitely use Mako again if I need plumbing work.

It was a weekend call so it was considered emergency-no problem with that. When they installed the new faucet in my shower, the pressure, which was what I loved about my shower was cut in half, when brought to the techs attention, he said sorry, I should have installed a different faucet, oh well nothing I can do about it now, sorry. I now hate taking showers in that bathroom. Sorry he said, nothing I can do about it now. I thought it was important that I mention that again. They' still missing the point in their response that none of this was brought to my attention BEFORE the installation. As of 2/9/16 still not resolved. When I wrote this review Mako responded with a lot of nice words however, I called after the new year, left a message to fix this issue as they stated in their response to my review that they were going to do and have never received a response. It's become oblivious that they have no plans of trying to fix this problem.

Glad we could resolve your situation over the weekend but we are very concerned with your disappointment with our product two years after our installation. We also feel that you may not be properly informed of what the current plumbing codes are. We want satisfied customers and have installed hundreds of Wolverine Brass shower bodies (the product that we stock that comes with a 100 year warranty). All of our “A” rated reviews pertaining to shower bodies have used this product and are very satisfied with the outcome. Therefore let me (your technician/plumber) try to be clearer in explaining why we are forced to install products that fall within water conservation codes. The three handle shower body and valve that was leaking out of control in your house is no longer allowed to be replaced directly. We as licensed plumbers are only allowed to retro-fit in single handle, pressure balanced, anti-scald shower bodies and valves. The plumbing code allows for only 2.5 gallons per minute heads and valves to be used as replacements for the old water wasting 3 handle valves and bodies and heads. We will always respond to a customer’s concerns; however we will never perform out of code procedures to make a buck or two. 30-50-75 year old 3 & 4 handle shower bodies can and have scalded and injured a huge number of people in the past and the plumbing code was re-written and re-mandated expressly to stop the dangerous and wasteful nature of your old body types that I had to change. As we recommended after changing your shower body, you can change your shower head to a low consumption head that will provide a stronger stream while still maintaining our principals of code compliance. In regards to our last conversation, you had mentioned that you did not want to deal with this until next year. Please let us know when we can get back to you, we would like to see if we can do something within our parameters to get you to enjoy your showering experiences going forward.

Everything went very well, from the arrival time, to Rob giving specifics about my issues, making suggestions and making the repairs. I felt very confident in the work he and his partner were doing. They worked quickly and were very neat with their clean up and removal of the old heater. I plan on using Mako's services again in the near future, once we start work on renovating the entire kitchen.
