When we bought the 19th century townhouse in Brooklyn plumbing was the main issue. The boiler looked like it would explode at any moment, there was a weird second water heater kind-of hooked in, the sewer cleanout was all wrong, there were multiple fire dangers in the way things were vented to the chimney, and all showers/tubs had various issues. Parkset came in with a very reasonable bid. The work was done quickly, with great quality and communication. It was such a good experience, I called them back for a couple more projects. read more

Parkset Plumbing & Heating - Building a sink in the basement, and a pump system to get the water from the sink and laundry up to the sewer level - Plumbing Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

See all

I had a leak under my sink and Tom the owner sent over Kenny and he removed metal pipe that the previous plumber put in since there was a big hole and then he proceeded to remove my BRASS pipe & drain, I said "why would you remove that?? Those I know are really long lasting" he said it will eventually erode, I said but it's not right now..he kept pressing that, that was part of the problem. I don't think it was since clearly the hole was but whatever, annoyed about that. I was charged $550. After he left I noticed it was still leaking and NOW it was clogging! I called them again the next day and informed the boss Tom, he sent over Kenny again this time with a partner, I forgot his name but he was much younger, more friendly, he also seemed more knowledgeable because he right away was pointing out things and I can see instantly he didn't like that and it made Kenny looked bad. Kenny changed the pipes and drain again and kept ordering the younger guy, but when we saw it was leaking again, the younger assistant asked if he can see the area, try something Kenny ignored him and didn't let him do anything but fetch tools for him and the assistant kept asking to see, I got annoyed and said "WILL YOU LET HIM LOOK?" like curb your ego dude! So the younger guy said what could be the issue and Kenny refused to acknowledge it and somehow managed to stop it by changing the drain and pipe again, he said the boss has to charge me for the new drain that he put in, that was weird to me since he didn't fix what he initially came to do the first day but whatever I wanted him done and out already. So an $225 and the next day LEAKING AGAIN! I called the boss and told him how upset I was after paying $800 total my BRASS drain and pipe removed (which I think was taken for themselves) it STILL hasn't been fixed and I was totally pissed and not satisfied. I asked how long has Kenny worked for them because the guy doesn't know what he's doing clearly and he's got an ego & wouldn't allow the young assistant to have a look at it, despite pointing out the issues. Tom was a little snippy when he should have taken accountability for charging so much for shi*tty work & sending over an incompetent person who should have retired honestly. It finally was fixed for good, when I demanded for someone else and NOT be charged a 3rd time!! read more

They over-charged me and did a sub par job. The chubby younger looking one did not have any idea what he was doing, and my toilet broke again shortly after; but at this point i am going to call someone more experienced. Do Not Hire them!!!!!!!!!! read more

Would give it negative stars if I could. I called to inquire about a bidet installment and the guy was rude, said he "would never touch" my bidet because it's an Asian brand. Told me to "just buy an American bidet then maybe it'll just work" So unprofessional and honestly came off racist. Don't understand the high ratings for this place read more

Parkset has done four jobs for me. But the last was a real disappointment. After paying $2,100 for a new water heater, the hot water was milky, particularly in the tenants' faucet. Parkset priced a fix, a pressure reducer, at $950. The manufacturer told me my pressure was fine and it sounded like air in pipes, a common occurrence after installation. Parkset's worker did a lazy job: emptied the heater and turned on a few faucets. When that did not work, he said I needed a mixer valve replacement on the worst faucet. Then Parkset ghosted my repeated requests for an actual bleeding of the system, or even a price for a mixer valve. read more

Last Summer when one of my tenants moved out, I noticed a leak outside the shower floor. I called Parkset because they are the go-to plumbers for my Condo building. The plumber who came over told me it would require the shower walls to be opened as they were unable to identify the source of the leak. I had several companies come out to run the shower to replicate the leak. On the very last visit from Parkset, their plumber was able to point the shower spray directly at one of the screwholes for the shower door track and we saw water spewing out. I subsequently called the shower door company to re-silicone the track. Fast forward to March 2024, I am reviewing my maintenance charges and notice that Parkset charged me $ 816.56 that was tacked onto my common charge bill back in August noted as: 7/10/23 answered for leak. When I called Parkset asking for a copy of the bill, they sent me a bill stating: answered call for leak going onto floor. Made SEVERAL trips to locate leak. Found leak due to shower doors. Owner will rectify problem. When I called Parkset to request the dates of the 3 visits, I was transferred to Ronnie who proceeds to attack my character and accuse me of not wanting to pay the bill. He says that of course I remember all the calls I have made and how dare I be questioning the charges. Thanks to my management company that embedded this charge into my maintenance bill and shame on me for not catching it sooner, the bill has already been paid. I found out that Parkset does service calls to my buildng and never presents paperwork for sign off. I truly can't recall the 3 times that I may have called Parkset since I also contacted two other plumbers. It is also a rental property and not my primary residence. To be accused for something when all I'm requesting are dates of service that he can't provide for some reason... shady beyond belief. Also, if on their first two visits they couldn't diagnose the problem, I'm not even sure that I should be charged for the previous two visits ( if there were indeed a total of 3 ) when the issue was the same all along and their plumbers were just unable to point the sprayer towards the shower door track and find the source. Bottom line, I don't understand why I had to be attacked because they sent a bill claiming "SEVERAL" visits and can't provide me with the actual dates of service. Needless to say, I will not be recommending them to any of my building residents in the future. read more

Expensive and Unethical! We were taking out a bathtub in our apt in Brooklyn which required a permit and a fully licensed plumber. The company required 50%deposit before starting the project. They sent a guy to check for asbestos and then applied for the license with the DOB. We then found out that to take the tub out the building required architectural drawings which added more expenses to the project so we decided to cancel. When contacted the owner charged us $2000 for what was done and initially refused to itemize the bill. Then he relented lowered his fee to $500 and sent the bill for the 2 contractors (one to check the asbestos, and one to do the DOB licensing) which amounted to about$1000. So to hire the subcontractors we paid $500! Not a nice man! read more

This guy is a tiger, a bear, an angel?! Picture this: water is spewing into our basement, geyser style, through our shared neighbor-wall from their basement into ours. What's in the water is anyone's guess. This goes on for days, weeks, a month now. We are in tense negotiations with our neighbors. Our basement wall is turning in the Gaza Strip. Calls to DEP ensue, stress is mounting. Tom waltzes in, calls our neighbor sweetie and with in an hour our neighbors call to apologize! They have a clear action plan to resolve their leak. Couldn't be a happier customer! Amen! read more

The service was fantastic! The owner Tom was extremely reasonable and helpful from beginning to end of my removing my old and adding my new boiler, Larry & his co worker were clean and professional got the job done! Ps. I recommended parkset for all of my and your plumbing needs Sincerely - Barry read more

I know that COVID had made it difficult for most businesses to stay afloat. No pun intended but I thought Parkset plumbing would be my go to company for me and my neighbors needs but this business have a very rude and very unprofessional individual answering the phone and keeping someone on hold for long periods of time or disconnecting the call I don't and won't beg anyone to take my hard earned money during these over price and hard times. Park at not only have you lost two customers you lost many more because when it comes to suggesting a company I will warn them they are not reliable professional or trustworthy . COVID will be a semi thing of the past but you will realize that word of mouth is the best and worse form of advertising! read more

If someone told me they were going to use Parkset Plumbing - I'd say run. I live in a condo building and needed the gas turned on in my recently purchased apartment. The building had set up for Parkset to test the gas so that National Grid can come turn it on. One company originally quoted me $400, but I had to use the company the building picked. So, they came, were in my apartment for 30 seconds, and slapped me with a $3000 bill. When I called to asked for the bill itemized because there were several tests listed - even though I just needed the one and the cost seemed exorbitant - I was told "this isn't Macy's I'm not itemizing anything, everyone pays this, welcome to home ownership." Although the word "told" is putting it lightly, since I was really getting yelled at even though I did not raise my voice once. I am never a person who doesn't pay a bill or acknowledge someone for their work and pay them for it, but the $3000 seemed a bit much and I just wanted to know what I was paying for and if it was correct, since Tom also said at one point "maybe we put another apartment's test on your bill." But when I called him a second time he had no recollection of saying that. Now, I'm stuck with this bill and a really bad taste in my mouth after getting yelled at and belittled by Tom. read more

We've had occasion to use Parkset several times recently, once to replace a shower, another to fix a leaky faucet, and another to replace an aging hot water heater. They were quick to set up a visit and to do the work, and at a reasonable price (half what a leading competitor quoted). Everything was done quickly and well. The technicians they sent were all skilled and friendly. Will definitely call them again. read more

I had a leak in my plumbing right after the water main shutoff valve in the house, and as fate would have it the leak got worse right after a big snowstorm. I called no less than 5 plumbers and even when I finally got the attention of one of them they "scheduled me" 3 times and never showed up any of those times. Then I called Parkset. Tom diagnosed the problem and a few hours later dispatched a team, which was Ray and Junior. They spent a considerable amount of time with the fitting, and eventually got it repaired. The cost was quite reasonable. They were also able to give me some advice about preventative maintenance. Don't mess around. Call Parkset first! read more

DO NOT WORK WITH THEM! Worst company ever! I called them on Wednesday knowing they have good reputation on yelp for a service call at my juice bar. The 3 compartment sink in the kitchen was leaking and needed to be fixed and I also had a problem with the cold water. They charged me $212 for claiming they fixed problems in the same day but yesterday the same sink started leaking again and we still have the same problem with the cold water. I called them for a call back, the same guy showed up again and said I need to pay another $212 to fix the same problem that he already fixed!!! Outrageous service I wouldn't recommend nobody to work with this company scam scam scam! **************************************** In response to your comment you never stated that the pipes are not working properly you just came and replaced something that should've been replaced and could be sealed easily! when I called you guys back to take a look at what you guys did you told me that I need to pay you another $195 to replace another item that wasn't needed to be replaced! After you guys left I called a different plumber to look at the problem and he fixed the issues without replacing the existing pipes nor the part you guys wanted to replace so spare me the talk about you guys being 50 years in the business and train you technicians to work more professionally! Good luck to you! **************************************** read more

UPDATE: after seeing the below review, the owner called me and tried to bully me into taking it down. Fun fact #1: mold concerns were never brought up until the owner called me trying to rationalize why his team wouldn't do the work. If there were mold concerns, then they should have communicated that there were mold concerns -- instead they said they had asbestos and lead concerns (in a building that's less than 10 years old). Sounds like he was fishing for an excuse. Fun fact #2: Bullying people is the behavior of a coward. I stand by my original review. 100% Issue: I have a leak originating somewhere under my tub/shower that drips onto the downstairs neighbor's bathroom ceiling anytime we run a bath. It was "fixed" by another plumber a month ago, but now the issue is back and worse than ever. I called ParkSet to diagnose/fix the issue based on the reviews I saw here. They get one star because they actually showed up (and because I can't go lower than one star). They lose 4 stars because: 1) when they originally showed up [a week ago] the plumber said he hadn't been told that he would need to open up the ceiling in the downstairs neighbor's apartment, and so he didn't have the tools necessary. Instead of going to get those tools [which he clearly needs to do his job], he insisted I reschedule. I did reschedule and waited another week. 2) when the rescheduled appointment happened today, a new set of guys showed up. My downstairs neighbor said they seemed pissed that the last guys didn't open up the ceiling and they said the first crew just left it for him to do. My neighbor says (and i quote) "It seemed like he just didn't want to do the work." Then the new plumber got on the phone with me and said he doesn't have the tools necessary to open the ceiling. Sounds suspicious and lazy and super unprofessional. I asked him to go get the tools needed and come back because i'm not rescheduling a third time. Do these people not communicate with each other!? THEN I asked the plumber to have his supervisor call me. 3) A guy named Ronny called (his supervisor? I dunno) and said flat out that he refuses to have his guys open the ceiling because there's a baby in the apartment. I asked for more clarity on why -- dust? noise? He said because of possible lead and asbestos issues and he refuses to be liable for that. I explained that this isn't an old building; in fact, the entire complex was built less than 10 years ago. He was quiet for a second, admitted that there would not be lead or asbestos issues, but STILL refused to open the ceiling to diagnose the problem. What the actual f*ck. 4) as a possible alternative, the plumbers said they could remove the side panel of the tub and try to see if they can see any issues. I agreed. Then they called back AGAIN saying they can't remove the side panel because there's a rusty screw. Are you kidding me? I'm no expert, but even I know there are ways to remove rusty screws. But I guess that was also too much work for them because they just left without doing a damn thing. How are these people even in business?! It's mind boggling to me. STAY AWAYYYYYY. read more

Here's what I look for in a master plumber: Honesty, integrity, professionalism, straight-forwardness and most importantly - knowledge and experience. Tom from ParkSet Plumbing delivered all that and more, at a cost that was reasonable and fair given his level of expertise. I appreciated his attention to detail, but also his ability to explain in easy-to-understand terms what he was doing every step of the way. For my particular issue (ConEd gas meter), after finishing his work at my house, he was able to forecast what he thought I could expect when dealing with ConEd moving forward and he was completely right. Tom is a master at his trade, and I feel 100% confident recommending his services, as well as his team, to others. I only want the best at their trades working on my house, and when it comes to local master plumbers-- I believe I've found just that. read more

I had an issue with the faucet in my kitchen, and park set plumbing fixed it in less than an hour. They responded to my call quickly and were able to fix it the same week. I highly recommend their team! read more

Beware of unfair pricing. Made calls to 10 plumbers to price out the disconnect, removal and reconnect of two sinks and faucets as I was replacing countertops. Everyone was in the range of $280-500 all in and these guys quoted $1250 plus parts. read more

It is tough to find a good plumber...Tom the owner of Parkset makes sure his customers are taken care of. He had his team fix my heat in a timely manner so my baby and I didn't freeze. I recommend calling Parkset for an honest and caring plumber. read more

We just did an oil to gas conversion with Parkset and it was a great job. We did it from scratch which means I had to get National grid to run a gas line from the street to our house (that experience which is ongoing and nothing to do with Parkset is horrendous) Tom and Afrodite did a wonderful job answering all our questions and after everything was done they even called us to make sure that National grid did their part. The work done was neat and thorough and we are very happy with our new furnace and water tank! read more

Dunbar did an excellent job. We are very happy with he and his colleagues speedy and efficient work. Highly recommend. Replaced pipes under the sink. Clean work. read more

Quality service! Spoke to the owner on multiple occasions and got my issues fixed promptly and professionally! Highly recommend!

There was a crack in the sewer pipe. It never came to be an issue until the drain was clogged and smelly water started to appear. I called around only to get the answer that nothing was available "until next week". This, until I got in touch with Gladstone at Parkset Plumbing. Not only was he available, he showed up when I was told he should, all the time. He came and made an estimate, cost and time. He and his guys showed up the next morning on time. In a few hours, the leak was fixed. He, not only, fixed the leak, he corrected a plumbing error made many years ago which had prevented a correct cleanout of the sewer system. The next day, again at the time I was told they were going to show up. I will keep their phone number on file and, if I ever get any plumbing issues again, I will give them a call. Friendly, knowledgeble, and reasonably priced, all the good thing. Yes, I will recommend them to my friends. read more

We needed emergency plumbing services. Unfortunately Parkset was not our first call and the first plumbers (roto rooter) let us down and even with price gouging decided they couldn't fix it for days. Parkset came to the rescue and did it for less than roto rooter was quoting. read more

I was very relieved that Parkset Plumbing came to my rescue after I began a job I thought I could easily do myself, but once I got halfway into it I realized I had better leave it to the professionals. Tom came over made an assessment and the next day early in the morning the job was done quickly efficiently and professionally. Will definitely be using them again. read more

Parkset Plumbing did a great job of installing a new wall mounted vanity, sink and faucets for me. They were a little more expensive than I had hoped for but totally worth it. The staff were courteous, prompt and efficient - and also kindly carried the very heavy vanity up several flights of stairs to my top floor apartment and took the old set away for me. All went smoothly, they listened to any concerns I had and I felt very comfortable with them in my home. So much so that I'm about to schedule another job with them! Highly recommended. read more

PARK SET replaced a hot water heater for us recently. Setting up an appointment was fast and easy. They came when expected and Reggie and Claudius did an excellent job of removing the old hot water and installing the new one. They were efficient, polite and neat. I can't say enough about the service I received and, in addition, the price was reasonable for the new heater and its installation. I almost forgot to mention that office personnel, Jasmine and Aphrodite were very helpful and one of the bosses,Tom, was extremely easy to deal with. I highly recommend this company for your plumbing needs. read more

Parkset was the third plumbing company I called to help me fix a leaking sink at my place of business. The other two companies came in, looked at the job, charged me $100-$200, told me to go get a new sink, and walked out the front door. I called Parkset via a random google search and they had someone at my shop at 9am. They couldn't fix it on the spot but they told me what to do and what to get (as far as the new sink and fixture). The plumber even looked at pictures I sent him of sinks my local hardware store had in stock and gave me a yes or no on what would work. Parkset came back the next day and although the plumber who showed up this time first tried to say he couldn't do what needed to be done, the office called me within minutes and assured me they would get the job done (which required deconstruction of a custom made sink and removal of all the junk that wasn't working after ten years). I said I have a problem, and I needed it fixed, no matter what that means. They said they understood and would handle it. They told me they couldn't promise that they wouldn't have to cut the sink up into pieces (it was wood) but they managed to save the sink per my request and were done in an hour or two. They left the space in good working order and clean. I can't speak to the price (if it was high or low, we paid $800), but we were in crisis mode and I couldn't get anyone else to do the job. I am thoroughly please with their work ESPECIALLY with the admin and office side of things. I have called fixers so many times to make an appointment and they never even show up! Or they show up and do crappy work. The new sink works perfectly and I am very happy with the results. I would use Parkset again any time. read more

Parkset replaced a section of drain pipe and trap in my basement. Very fast, efficient, no problems with it afterwards. They responded quickly to my call of distress, which is always comforting. A neighbor next door recommended them, and was happy with the work they did there. I will use them again. read more
