BEWARE of VITMAR PLUMBING. Our restaurant dish washing 3 bay kitchen sink needed an overhaul as the iron pipes were old and cracked. We also needed to anchor a stand alone prep sink against the wall to prevent it from moving as well as troubleshoot a hot water tank. I did a search on Angies list to locate a reputable company in the area and came across Vitmar Plumbing. He was local, had a few positive reviews so I decided to give him a call. I spoke to Joe, the owner who was nice on the phone and answered my questions to the best of his knowledge. He came over a few days later to quote us a price. At the time of his visit, he briefly looked at the hot water tank and immediately recommended a replacement (only 4 years old) and said that it was easier to replace the tank than deal with the burners, pilot, etc. I passed on doing that as it didnt make much sense. Long story short, I resolved the issue myself. The fan from the ac blower was blowing out the pilot. A simple shield blocking the flow of air towards the pilot fixed the problem. The kitchen sink issues were pretty straight forward. He cut out the pipes, replaced with PVC and rubber connectors, added 3 new drain funnels with new gaskets for each sink drain. The sink that needed to be anchored was done so with an old uneven 2x4 piece of wood, nothing more nothing less. Upon leaving, Joe mentioned that if we needed anything to give him a call anytime as he was 5 minutes down the road from us. About 1.5 months later, we noticed that there was a leak underneath the far right pipe. We couldnt figure it out as it was intermittent. It took Joe 4 days to stop by only to tell us nothing was wrong. We ran water and unfortunately werent able to reproduce the leaking as we now know that it actually occurred when the sink was full. Im sure Joe knew this but just didnt want to deal with it as he was already annoyed for coming out of his way (5 minutes down the road). He blamed a clogged grease trap (which didnt make sense as the leak was from the complete opposite side). We ended up fixing the grease trap issue, and sure enough the leak was still there. We called again but to no avail. We accepted the small leak for the time being as we were very busy and couldnt constantly reproduce it at will (again, b/c the sink needed to be full). Recently, we noticed a lot of water collecting underneath ALL of the pipes. We called Joe and he finally responded about a week later. In a very annoyed voice over the phone he said it was impossible for there to be any leaks and it was the grease trap. We asked him to come over just to take a look and his response was that he would rather not deal with us anymore and hung up the phone. Upon closer inspection and confirmation from another plumber, all of the gaskets that he installed under the sink drains had failed and whatever sealant he used around the gaskets completely flaked off. Basically a lousy job at best. Prior to reaching out to another plumber, I sent Joe a picture of the leakage and of course, no return call. Joe, is clearly someone who doesnt care about customer service. No matter how basic of a job, he should stand behind his work. We only reached out to him a few times to troubleshoot a problem that was clearly his fault. I am all about supporting local businesses as in my experiences they provide better customer service, knowledge, etc. Joe and Vitmar plumbing (he is a one man band) is the complete opposite and honestly someone that clearly doesnt care to stand behind his work. A quick 5 minute trip from his office to us is an inconvenience and not worth his time. Do your due diligence and if you still choose Vitmar, use his services at your own risk and pray you dont have any issues. In the end, you will need to to hire another plumber to clean up his mess like we did.

I have used Vitmar plumbing numerous times over the years and will continue to use them. I have a kitchen and bathroom remodel coming up within the next month and Joe from vitmar will be the one to get my business. their prices are fair and the work is clean, neat and well done. there is no b.s. from Joe the owner - what he tells you is what you get - no upselling no lies on pricing. as i said - - - i have used Vitmar in the past and will continue to do so in the future. Thats the best recommendation i can gi ve. you are NOT taking a chance by hiring this company

He's excellent, does good, clean work, and everything works properly. It was good, he was up front, told me what the price would be, and it was the price. The work was clean and cleaned up good afterwards. He is very knowledgeable. He is a master pro. We had a couple of other plumbers out, they were pretty much useless, they didn't return calls, and everything. He's a real good guy and very professional. He's there, one time he came knocking on the door, ten minutes after I called him. The reason I signed up for Angie's List is to find a plumber.
