Koraus Michael Plumbing & Heating Co

If you need a plumber that can do basic maintenance and easy fixes, then Mike is fine, if not overpriced. Anything slightly complicated and you will be told that it needs to be done by someone else. Case in point… I had a part on my boiler that needed replacing. Mike told me to call an electrician to check it. I did, the electrician said this was something that pretty much any plumber could do. He verified the part was bad and needed to be replaced as the electricity to it was fine. Something that could/​should have been done by Mike
Called Mike and he ordered a new part. He showed up to install it and said the part was different than the broken one and he didn’t know how to do it. Yet he charged me for the part (fine) and $ 150 for his visit. So I was basically charged a $ 150 delivery fee. Yes, that’s right, his hourly fee is $ 150. Steep right? No doubt. And still I had to find a new plumber who did know how to install the part, for another $ 400 fee. While I thought that price was also too high, at this point I was on visit #4 from contractors and just wanted it done. This plumber too said this was a basic install that any plumber should know how to do.
Like I said, Mike is fine for pedestrian plumbing needs, but find someone who can do the entire job. I know I will for now on.
