The person that came out was professional and courteous. He took the time to see if it could be fixed. And showed me things about the old and new garabage disposal. He was able to replace my garbage disposal quickly and applied the discount to the bill. And I was pleasantly surprised to see him putting away all of the things that I had taken out from under the sink.
Description of Work: I had a garbage disposal replaced.

The work turned out excellent. I would use this company again.
Description of Work: In a heavy rain storm in June, the city storm drains failed allowing about 3” of water to pour into our basement from our floor drains. Mackin and Sons Plumbing came out, sealed up the two drains and re-routed any future rain-water that might come in by putting in a back-flow valve in one drain and by re-routing the other drain into the sanitary sewer. He also installed an overflow tee and discharge pipe outside in case outside storm lines are backed up. He had to break up the floor in two different places and after installation, rough patch the holes in the floor with cement.

We have used them more than one time. The work has always turned out very well. It’s a small company, so you work with the same main guy each time. He is reliable and he comes on time hewn he says he’s going to. His pricing his fair and it’s nice to always deal with the same person and get to know him.
Description of Work: They have performed various plumbing works for me. They have installed a new sump pump, installed a new faucet in the kitchen, and done maintenance work with the water pump.

Mike is fabulous. Since I am a frequent customer, he gives me awesome discounts and is competitive with his rates. He is fast and he is reliable. He always dresses professional and he is very nice and friendly. He does excellent work and he is someone I will always use. He can be trusted and there have never been any issues. He is by far the best plumber I have ever used.
Description of Work: I have probably used him at least 10 times for various plumbing jobs. My husband and I flip houses and we use him for all our plumbing work.

My water heater developed a leak from the top, and after talking with Mike by phone I decided that due to its age, I'd rather just go for replacement. I called end of day Friday, and Mike offered to come out on Saturday (but I couldn't accept because we had a wedding to attend). Instead, Mike showed up first thing Monday morning, new tank ready to go, and got right to work. He was professional, his bill exactly matched the estimate given over the phone, and he cleaned up any mess. Would definitely recommend this company.

I called this company on a Monday morning for a plumbing problem for a rental property I have in Canton. Mike said that he wouldn't be able to get to it until Wed or Thursday. I gave him my tenant's phone number and asked that he call her to schedule the service. I expected that he would call her that day to schedule for later in the week. As of Wed evening, he had not yet contacted her. I sent an email on Mackin's website to ask what was going on. I received a response Thursday morning saying they would not be able to do the service call. It took him 4 DAYS to let me know he wouldn't be coming!! Meanwhile, my tenant has been sitting there waiting for the plumber to call. I don't know why he has such high ratings on Angies' List. How he acted with me was completely unprofessional.
Description of Work: He waited 4 days to tell me he couldn't do the job.

Response from Mackin & Sons Plumbing
We did not do any work for this member. On Monday we told her we would set up an appointment with her tenet for Wednesday or Thursday. By Wednesday night we received an angry email asking why we had not contacted her tenet. We never discussed when we would call her tenet and were planning to call her first thing Thursday morning. Based on our first phone call and the angry email we decided we would not be able to please this customer and immediately emailed to notify her.

Everything went quickly and successfully.
Description of Work: I was having a problem with low water pressure in my home. I had our usual plumbing company come out. They measured the pressure, changed our pressure meter and $250.00 later we still had the same low water pressure. I noticed on Angie's List that one of Mackin and Sons clients had written that they were able to help them with a similar low water pressure problem so I chose them. They came out and measured my water pressure and said that it was only reading half the amount that it should be. He simply adjusted the meter and the low pressure that we had been dealing with for 4 months was corrected. I was confused as to why my other company said their pressure reading was normal and Mike said that not everyone seems to know how to adjust the meters. It was a simple fix for him. He had the parts also to fix a leaky kitchen faucet. Very quick, clean and reasonably priced. Returned my initial call within 2 hours.

Our sewer line backed up, and I called them based on other reviews on this site. He came out the same day, and snaked the drain. Unfortunately his equipment got stuck on the clog and even after a valiant effort he was unable to dislodge it. He called in some help, but they could not get there until the next day, so he had to schedule another appointment. Came out again, and removed the source of the clog. He cleaned up after himself and was very nice and professional. I was happy with the service and price and I will definitely use this company again.

He called a few days later to follow up to see how everything was working out. Their price was reasonable. He was professional and courteous.
Description of Work: We were leaving on Labor Day weekend with company in town and then our faucet broke in the kitchen. The turn off valve could not be turned off so I called them and they called me back and said they could be out within the hour and showed up even earlier. He fixed the shut off valve and the faucet in the kitchen. He came back the Tuesday after Labor Day with the part I needed and finished the repair.

I was very happy with the service. He was at my house when he said he'd be there. He gave me an estimate and was able to do the work that day, like he said he would. He also checked for a gas leak on the stove, and repaired it for no extra cost. He had a problem re-installing the stove door, and was willing to come back and fix it or send another repairman to fix it at his cost. It was no problem, once I found my manual, the door was easy to re-install. He shows up looking very professional and clean. He left the kitchen looking better than when he came in. I've had other plumbers working on my house before, but I won't go back to them now that I've used Mackin and Son. I'll be calling him again for some work on another house and I'll recommend him to relatives and friends.

I did not care for him, he was not a friendly person.
Description of Work: My jewelry was stuck from March in the toilet and I called them to come out to get it out of the toilet but he was not able to. The toilet was overflowing and he used two rolls of toilet paper and he took a roll home for himself. I thought this was disrespectful that he was using so much toilet paper. He told me I needed to buy a more expensive toilet. I did not like his answers. He was mad that I brought him to the house. He was expensive and he could have better plumbing equipment.

Response from Mackin & Sons Plumbing
Our technician, Mike, went out after hours to try to open a clogged toilet. The owner said they may be some jewerly stuck in the toilet. Mike could not get the toilet un-clogged and did go through quite a bit of toilet paper while testing to see if it was open. The only way to ensure the problem was fixed was to pull the toilet off the floor and inspect it from underneath. Since that would be half way to replacing the toilet Mike offered the option of upgrading to a newer, better flushing toilet. We believe $89 dollars for an afterhours call, and hour of 100% effort and with honest options to prevent the problem in the future is how we would want to be treated.

Mike showed up right at the scheduled time. He drained the old water heater and removed it from the house. He installed a new A. O. Smith hot water heater, finishing the job well within the amount of time he had predicted it would take. That was 12 days ago, and it is working fine.

I had poor water pressure that was non-existent when multiple faucets were running. Mike quoted the job in parts, basement and first floor, so that there were options if I wanted only part of the work done. We scheduled the job around my availability. Mike came out to do the basement work first and saved a sample of the pipe that he had removed. The rust had decreased the opening by half. My water pressure was so much better, I was amazed at the difference. For the first floor, Mike only needed half a day, but I had no access to the plumbing behind the sink. I took down the paneling in a bedroom before he arrived to allow him to cut the plaster and lathe to get to the pipes. I will fix the hole by putting in an access panel and replacing the original paneling. Mike completed the job quickly and charged what he quoted even though he replaced the valves that he thought were in need of replacement and were not considered in the original estimate. Also, he replaced the supply line under the sink without additional cost because I had a leak. He seems to go above and beyond and is more than fair. He was professional and courteous as well. I will definitely use Mackin and Sons in the future and will and have recommended them to anyone. They also have the drive and availability to be there when needed unlike some of the larger more well known places. When you call, Mike answers. It's also nice that I got to work with the same person I spoke to on the phone. Very satisfied with their exceptional service. They score perfect.
Description of Work: Replaced existing rusted galvanized steel water lines with copper in basement and first floor. Replaced valve and connection hose to toilet, valves under bathroom sink and hot water supply line under kitchen sink. Put a winterizing valve inside for the outdoor water connection to prevent breakage from freezing.
