Mike (George's son) has been our plumber since we moved into our house in 1997. He can fix anything. More importantly (or maybe just as importantly), he is incredibly reliable and responsive. For some reason it seems like all my plumbing emergencies are on the Friday before holiday weekends, and somehow Mike comes in less than 24 hours (sometimes in much less). Even when it's not an emergency he is usually here within a day. He is so honest that, for example, when he could have charged us an arm and a leg to replace the pipes to our street (estimate $10,000) he recommended that we call WASA first to see if they would fix it on their end, which they did (saving us all that money). Coincidentally, he also used to work for the contractor who did a (beautiful) major renovation on our house, which is another reason that I trust him, because our contractor is extremely picky and will only use certain contractors she can trust. I send all my friends and neighbors to him and they are always grateful. I can't recommend him highly enough. I am happy to answer any questions. You will be very happy with him! read more

Mike with George the Plumber is hands-down the best plumber we have ever worked with. We have multiple rental properties and have been in this business for a long time, and he is now our official go-to guy for anything we need. He has the highest professional standards of any workman I know; he did a superb job for us replacing a faulty bathtub faucet, and the end product looked perfect to us - but he did not consider it his personal best and dramatically adjusted his rates. Anyone else would not have mentioned it and the homeowner would never have known. Compare this to a well-known major plumbing company that charged us $300 just to show up and snake our drain for 15 minutes, then required us to sign something saying that if there was a problem we'd have to pay again because they wouldn't stand by their work. Mike has the absolute opposite ethical and professional compass; there was no charge to come by and diagnose the problem (same day no less) and he will always stand by his work. A++++! read more

I pursued a neighborhood recommendation for George the Plumber to replace my water heater and they did a fantastic job. What amazed me was that they spent all day installing what turned out to be a huge water heater in my very small utility closet, one much bigger than I'd anticipated. I was going to let it go but when they followed up with a "how'd we do" call I said, well, I wish you'd let me know it'd be so big or given me a choice for a smaller one.... They immediately apologized and came out and replaced it with a smaller one for free! They said they're a small, family-owned company (George was the father, now retired, and Mike and Sophie are his children who now run the business) and they rely heavily on neighborhood referrals. I was really impressed, they were very easy to work with, did a great job, and made sure I was happy with the result even at significant cost to them. Highly recommended! read more

Mike Xeron, the owner of the company started by his father George, is the most competent, knowledgeable and trustworthy plumber I have ever dealt with! We have used him for various jobs over several years. This last repair has brought me to post this review - he was literally able to save us thousands of dollars. He located (from his plumbing workshop) an unused part which was no longer available through the manufacturer and saved us the pain and expense of ripping up and replacing tile work and a costly new installation. He is honest and genuinely cares about the integrity of his work and is more interested in a satisfied customer than in making a quick buck. He is worth every penny! He is also a lovely person. Can't say enough good things about him. read more

Mike came over for a water heater estimate; and though we went with another plumber because of Mike's busy schedule then, he gave us precious information that saved us hundreds: our Pfister bathtub faucets in the floor above were strongly leaking, running huge quantities of water. Other 2 plumbers discussed the high price of replacement: but Mike instead said it was related to the gas water tank that needed replacement. Something about the way that brand (Pfister) is made (and perhaps the pressure?). When the water heater was replaced a few days later, yes! the tub upstairs went silent, the leaking had stopped. It was wonderful. We are forever grateful for Mike's great, kind and free information! read more

I never write reviews on Yelp, but I wanted to in this case. I would highly recommend Mike and James, both with George the Plumber. I had hired Mike two years ago to help with a kitchen issue, and I had such a positive experience, that when I needed a plumber this time, I called him again. He was once again very responsive and professional and came out twice on short notice to do what he could in the moment. And he didn't even charge me for those visits. I then scheduled a formal appointment with his colleague, James, to do the repair work with the bathroom sink. He was also very professional and did an excellent job doing the repairs that were needed. Thank you! read more

I called these guys based on the recommendation of a general contractor and they did not disappoint! James called when he was on the way and arrived on time. He was transparent about the price and was honest about how long it would take. In my case, we had to do a bit of detective work to find a leak and James was thorough and communicative. He installed a part that was defective, realized it right away, and left to go and get the part from a local plumbing supply place. If I need a plumber in the future, I will definitely be using them again! As other reviewers have said-- they don't take credit cards, so be prepared for that. read more

Called George the plumber after our water heater died (after having been 'fixed' twice by another plumber). He came the morning after we contacted him and found the problem immediately: the previous fix had caused the insulation on the heater to melt. He was able to replace the heater the same day (note: go with Ruud...) and even followed us to Home Depot with our old heater in the back of his truck so that we could get a refund on the old heater (which wasn't that old). It's been a few months now and the new heater is working great! Definitely recommend George the Plumber! I wish he was also George the Electrician... read more

I stumbled on Mike from "George the Plumber" by accident. He was working at a neighbor's house when a drain pipe broke in my basement. He came over, examined the mess, and gave me several recommendations on how to deal with it, including how to fix it myself. I hired him to make the repairs and was so satisfied with his work, that I hired him again on a number of occasions. He is professional, thorough, and cleans up his work area. His completed work is high quality and is visually neat. I recommended him to another neighbor who has since used him several times and has been pleased with his work. read more

Mike was AWESOME! I couldn't recommend anyone more highly. I had an emergency with my disposal late on a Saturday afternoon and called him cold after reading his yelp reviews. He called me back within 10 minutes and was over at my place within the hour. He was incredibly personable, and incredibly professional. His fees were more than reasonable, if not a deal. He fixed my problem in under an hour, charged me for less than a half hour, and left me feeling lucky that I had happened upon him. I will definitely use him again, and I will definitely recommend him to anyone who asks for a reference. read more

The appointment with Mike Flemming on August 7 was perfect. Punctual, courteous, efficient, thorough, and clear, Mike is the ultimate professional. The pre and post calls with Sophia were also punctual, courteous, efficient, and clear. We really appreciated how she showed individual care for our family. A neighbor highly recommended George the Plumber to us, and now we will definitely recommend this wonderful company to others. We have owned our home for 26 years, and we were amazed at how hot the water was after Mike installed the new hot water heater! read more

Excellent service! We called George the Plumber on a Monday and the crew was there Tuesday morning. We had a bad drainpipe in the upstairs shower absolutely flooding the downstairs bathroom completely. The crew came (three guys), assessed the damage and issue, and repaired it all in the morning. And it wasn't an easy repair as they had to cut open the ceiling and work in a very tight area to get to the drainpipe. George was here with the crew and made sure everything was done properly. They are highly recommended in my neighborhood, and now we understand why. read more

We can't recommend George the Plumber highly enough. Mike's come out to install a new sump pump pretty much in the only short break in a week of torrential rain when our basement flooded. James has done work in our bathroom and put in a new water heater. And Sophia in the office is so nice and helpful. The whole team is professional, responsive, and very good at explaining what needs to be done and their pricing. We'd certainly prefer NOT to have plumbing problems, but we definitely know who we trust to call when we do. read more

George the Plumber is, without a doubt, the best plumbing service we've ever used. Mike is as nice as can be and incredibly responsive, efficient, and good at what he does. There is no one better. He's been to our home numerous times to deal with all sorts of plumbing issues (clogged drains, dishwasher issues, water filter replacements, children's toys flushed down the toilet), and simply couldn't be better. I recommend him wholeheartedly to everyone and wouldn't think of using anyone else for our plumbing needs. read more

The entire team, from the office to the plumbers out on calls, were very knowledgeable and professional. They installed a new faucet and made the process stress-free. They prepped beforehand, came prepared (and masked), and didn't leave a mess behind them. And they have integrity: Another project didn't come out perfect and they refused to charge us for it. That's a pleasant surprise these days, and much appreciated. When the time comes, we'll use George the Plumber for the next project. read more

Fantastic service! I hate to write an honest review because they will get really busy! We have used George The Plumber team for a number of issues in the past two years and have had nothing but positive experiences. They come when they say they will, they are professional and solve all our issues. We have used them for the big job of putting in a new water heater and small jobs of putting in washers into a leaky sink. We have had three different associates, all have been fantastic! read more

Previously, Mike fixed a poorly designed recirculating pump system. His work was fast, professional and appropriately priced. So, naturally I called him the next time that I had a plumbing issue. This time, I had a problem with an outdoor hose bib. Mike came, saw, fixed, and left. 15 minutes and that was it. He basically said "I will see you next time you need plumbing", and he will. I highly recommend George the Plumber. I see no reason to call anyone else. Thanks, Mike. read more

We found George the Plumber when our sump pump went out, several years ago. James can out the next day and all was quickly fixed. This company, Mike and James (who have been to our house) are wonderful. They respond quickly, give a 2 hour appointment time and lets us know when they are on their way. They always wear booties, clean up, friendly, gives good explanations for the problem and takes a photo of the problem so we can see the problem. We highly recommend them!! read more

It is my great honor to write a review for Mike Celis of George the Plumber. I was so impressed with the quality work Mike demonstrated. His knowledge, skills, and experience make him an expert in this field. When mike showed me the finished work, the 1st sentence came out of my mouth was: "Wow! It is so beautiful!" This just affirms the high standard of Mike's work and the company he represents. I will definitely call on George the Plumber for my next project! read more
