They asked to use my personal bathroom a few times which i found odd as i have hired several contractors who worked longer hour jobs who never asked to use my bathroom before. I also found them using my kitchen sink to watch their rags, which really peeved me because they did not ask for my permission first. They left my place a mess, left several supplies in my garage without letting me know in advance that someone would not pick it up till the following day. They left for the day without letting me know they were finished, which was an inconvenience as i wasn't sure if i should stick around or wait for them to come back. I only found out later through email that the job was done. Will not be hiring again

Their pricing is very competitive, but what stood out even more was how much they genuinely cared about our satisfaction. When we realized we had overlooked part of the original scope of work, Giovanni graciously adjusted their schedule and materials to accommodate our request. This was well beyond what was required, as the agreement had been clear--it was our oversight. That kind of flexibility, integrity, and commitment to the customer is rare and deeply appreciated.

I called this company because he had a good 5 star review on Yelp but my guess is that he rated himself because the service is bad, his attitude is even worse , & the only thing worse than both of those is his prices. Only call this company if you want to work with a disrespectful jerk who will rip you off overcharge you & leave you feeling you just got mugged by a NY street thug. If i could id rate him -0 stars but yelp wont let me go that low. Don't trust his good rating i am sure he wrote it himself & if you do don't say i did not warn you. He charges more than a real licensed plumber. He showed up at my house with his girlfriend looked like she was still in high school who waited outside in his truck.
