Very responsive to return call. Was very pleasant to discuss the situation with. Gave him all the details. Quoted a price with a caveat that it could need more time if there was an issue once the job started. I said ok, but we agreed that if it went above x, please give me a call. No call received. Just received the bill. I did not mind if the job required it. But not being there at the home location, just more communication was needed as we agreed on. He was very professional. Billed me. Did not want any money/deposit up front. Which was good. It's hard to and quot;discussand quot; the bill after the work is done. I do not like when contractors do that. Otherwise, quality work.
Description of Work: Install a dishwasher.

The charge to remove and install the bathroom vanity was actually more than the price of the vanity and its faucet combined. Arguably, it was a delicate job as the previous owner had used a variety of adhesives to "waterproof" the vanity and backsplash over many years of usage. The plumber had to be careful and not destroy the wall tiles as he removed the vanity since the tile was not exactly replaceable from current sources. Had I known that there was a box of these same wall tiles "hidden" in the garage attic which were later to be found, the removal would not have had to been such a delicate operation. Of course, this conclusion is all after-the-fact. Nonetheless, the charge to remove the old vanity and install the new one came to almost $400--way too much for my taste--all things considered. In defense of the plumbers, they did a very good job which has remained trouble-free since then, now one year later. In fact, I am having this same company provide with an estimate for renovation plumbing work in my basement based on their work performance.
Description of Work: Remove old vanity and toilet, and install new vanity and toilet in main bathroom. Also, remove old faucet and install new faucet for the kitchen sink.

Greg and his helper did a great job - threading the source and return pipes through the first floor in the walls and doing a very neat installation of the baseboards on the second floor. They accomodated the existing woodwork, decorative trim and floor surfaces.All of the new connections in the basement are immaculate - their skill with copper and pex tubing is really first rate.
Description of Work: Greg installed new hot-water baseboard throughout the second floor of our house (a tricky task since the house has post and beam framing). He disconnected an old oil-fired boiler and connected the floor as a new zone on our existing large gas-fired boiler.
