He did not do a thorough evaluation of the cause of the failure until the follow up visit. He fell short in performing his due diligence in evaluating the condition of my furnace and charged me $300 for a quick fix that immediately failed, and he wouldn't reimburse me. Furthermore, implying it was my oversight not knowing the condition of the furnace, once he later realized his fix would repeatedly fail due to the motherboard of the system. He responded unprofessionally and aggressively on the phone in my attempt to find a resolution. Would highly suggest you find someone more reliable.

I hired Mike to install a gas line for a stove in my home... but only after receiving multiple bids from various other contractors. Parallax was not only the most competitive, they were the most courteous, the most prompt and thought "outside the box" to come up with a solution that was stumping other contractors. During and after the installation, Mike routinely performed above and beyond the scope for which I hired him. I highly recommend Mike and his operation.

Very prompt and courteous - Very professional attitude - When my Heater stopped working last Sunday, I called Mike first. He was not available right away (Sunday 8pm) so I had to call someone else (my wife and my kids put pressure) The guy came and stated that it was a big problem and that the furnace needed complete cleaning and parts. I was quoted $610. I was very skeptical so I called Mike the next morning. He came in right away and diagnosed that absolutely nothing was wrong with the furnace or the part. He tested all parts, reset the heater and the furnace worked again. Mike saved me over $600 or maybe more because my wife was talking about replacing the furnace altogether. I cannot thank Mike enough for his work that day, you know you can trust him because he will tell you the truth and explain what the problem is in a non-obscure way.

The job was scheduled promptly, Oleg was very responsive and communicative, and despite the complexity of what I needed done for my remodel they delivered exactly what we discussed.

We received a limited-detail estimate of $1,625 after Pat came out to investigate a toilet that was unstable/rocking and water refilling slowly. The toilet had a crack in it, but Pat first told us it would not need to be replaced. He determined that the flange needed replacement and that there was some wood rot below the toilet that needed repair. Because M5 Plumbing advertises their ability to do full-service bathroom remodeling, including flooring replacement, we decided to go with them. 3/4" particle board was installed on the basement ceiling from below the toilet to sandwich the old flooring and allow for the new flange and toilet to be installed. We requested a more detailed cost estimate which showed we were charged $375 to "pull & reset" toilet, $675 to "remove and replace" flange, and $575 for "flooring repair, remove failed section of flooring, install new 3/4" plywood beneath floor, install new base for toilet, reinstall to tie flange to substrate." On day of repair, at the last minute, Pat determined that the toilet indeed needed to be replaced, so we had to buy a toilet for him to pick up from Home Depot. Cost us $1,745 for the whole project which took him only 3 hours to complete. My sister is living in this (our) home, so we wanted to be sure it is working properly and all is well, but we live across the country. It's hard to manage home maintenance repair from a distance. I wish we hadn't been so hasty in our hiring decision. We do not plan to work with M5 Plumbing again. It was too costly for such a simple project. We questioned the "flange replacement" charge at $675 on top of the $375 toilet "pull and set" (seems like a double-charge of $375, as the toilet pull and set should be obvious in a flange replacement), but he stood by that cost. We probably could have flown across country, done the job ourselves, and got a family visit out of it for less than what he charged us. But, alas. We made a mistake. Additionally, this is COVID pandemic season, and he failed to wear a mask during the work. He showed up with a mask for the estimate, but did the work mask-free. Disrespectful, at the least. Finally, he left a mess: garbage bag in the bathtub, scraps all over the floor, and an old toilet lid. We hoped this would be a good experience so we could continue to work with him for future work, but this won't be happening.
