Mike is awesome! Professional, polite, and friendly. I tried to DIY my toilet repair but after getting pretty far down the road decided not to risk making a big mistake and called him. He was super responsive, fixed the problem quickly, and charged me a fair price. I've been looking for a new plumber who will be my plumber from now on, and now I've found him. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Mike was great, he was very polite and my mother-in-law was very impressed by him. She really liked him, and I know its not only the phenomenally good work he did, but also that he was very friendly and conversed with her about different things that involve the work he was doing and the benefits of the type of grab bars he was installing because he did the same for his own mother. All in all, she was very happy with the work and price and that makes me very happy that I reached out to him. Not only that I had messaged him on Angie's List at almost 10 pm and he got right back to me and even came 4 days earlier than what we discussed!! Amazing service and an A+ plumber

Mike was superb. The job required perseverance and Mike's never give up attitude paid off while working on my old house. The odyssey began when Mike tried to install the faucet I purchased. It did not fit. He went to a trade supple house in search of another that also did not fit. He was instrumental in getting the showroom to take the wrong one back, and recommended a helpful sales person who helped me buy an appropriate one. On the next visit we discovered that the holes were not drilled correctly, so the new faucet would not fit. Mike installed an inexpensive one for us to use until he could buy a special drill bit for cutting granite. Mike deftly enlarged the mounting hole, which was no small feat given the counter/sing/backsplash setup. He did so without damaging anything or creating a mess. He's also very personable and comfortable to be around and in the house. highly recommended.

I had two different leakages in a row with my toilet drain and sprinkler pipe in a row. Mike has been always responsive even without a dedicated phone receptionist. He came to my house on time, pinpointed the real issues quickly and fixed both issues on the spot with high quality. The price was very reasonable. I will definitely go to Mike for future plumbing helps.

Mike was on time and he installed a new Delta faucet for us in the main bathroom. He was very professional, quick and he took the time to explain everything to us. We are happy with the results of his work and we will definitely use his services in the future.

I had great experience with Rivers Plumbing for the past 2 years. Mike was very professional and friendly. Even my 3-year old son still remembers his name. My experience with Mike was excellent all time: prompt response, very reasonable price and quality service. I will continue using Mike for my plumbing works.

Above and beyond! Mike arrived on time, he presented different options for the work to be done, and provided a very reasonable estimate and time frame for the work to be done. In addition Mike took extra time to show and explain us some related issues to this gas line extension project that ended up saving us a ton of money and prevented a great deal of frustration for us. Thank you Mike!

Words cannot express how grateful we are to Mike Rivers for his help getting our home back online after we were affected by the gas disaster of September 13th. Our hot water heater, dryer, stove, 2 furnaces, and gas fireplace were all condemned. First he helped us install a temporary electric hot water heater, and then he returned to hook up the dryer and stove. Recently, he made us "House Ready" so that our gas could be turned back on. He advocated for us during the inspection process, and even helped us understanding some of the incorrect work performed by our furnace company. Throughout it all, he was kind, patient, and professional. He is credited with giving us back our home, and we are forever grateful. Without hesitation, I whole-heartedly recommend Mike of Rivers Heating and Plumbing.

Mike was reliable and efficient. He arrived as scheduled, did all work as planned, for the price on his estimate. He did the bathroom plumbing, replaced outdoor faucets, and worked on the refrigerator water line. All work was done professionally and for a reasonable price. I will definitely call him again.

We have used Mike for many projects. He replaced a heating system this past March. He is professional, on time, cleans up and his work is very good. He also responds quickly if there is a problem, a big plus.

Mike was phenomenal. He spent hours fixing the problem (which was caused by a prior plumber who failed to install various gas pipes and connections correctly!). Mike's work immediately passed inspection without incident. Can't say enough wonderful things about his work. He's top notch and his prices are very fair.

Mike responded to my initial inquiry same day and was able to schedule time for the work the following week which aligned with my schedule. Showed up on time, got right to work (which included some extra effort due to some issues removing the existing faucet), and we're very happy with the results. Will definitely use Mike again for any future plumbing needs.

Mike responded my email on the same day and scheduled an appointment. On the day of the appointment, unlike other company (I called before) who threw a big price tag on me, Mike was trying every possible low-cost options first to repair my leaking shower-tub valve. Eventually it was still a replacement but the cost is very reasonable. I feel I can trust Mike who's really helping his customers to the customers' interest. Thank you Mike! Certainly you are on my go-to-guy for future plumbing works.

Mike is the bomb! I've hired him 2 or 3 times now, and have recommended him to several friends. He does quality work at a competitive price and, more importantly, he's just a good guy. What more do you need?

Upon first calling Mike to schedule the job, he was very responsive. I exchanged a couple of e-mails with Mike to fine tune the service date which made it very easy to communicate. Mike is very pleasant and genuinely outgoing. As a result, I felt comfortable having him work in my home which is very important to me when hiring a contractor. After giving me an over view of his game plan, he got right to work. In addition to repairing the laundry valve he installed a bracket to secure exposed pipes to the wall which lead to the laundry valve...this never even occurred to me. The price was fair and I am pleased with the outcome of the job. I will be contacting Mike shortly for an estimate on additional work.

Mike showed up right on time to do the repair to the pipe. He did the work, took me downstairs to explain what he had done, and since it did not take him as long as he had anticipated it would, he only charged me $140 for the work. He was pleasant, well spoken, impressed me as being very honest and forthright. I would not hesitate to hire him again nor recommend him to friends or family. I will call him next fall to service our furnace when the time comes.
