Description of Work: Simon always responds immediately. He does alot of qualifying over the phone. I've called him about 6 times over the years - if it's a job he's not best to do, he will refer you to someone else. I've used him 3 times, and he is always punctual, well priced, and professional. Our water heater leaked and dumped all through our basement. He was there same day to replace the entire water heater. He also worked with us to replace a sink in a prior property. I recommend Aviksis Plumbing. Don't get frustrated if he refers you to someone else - he knows what he is good at. But if he says he'll take the job - use him.

Description of Work: We had a small gas leak that the utility company had temporarily sealed up but it needed a permanent patch. Shimon came out for this relatively small job when no one else would even return my calls. He quickly and efficiently got the job done for us at a very reasonable price and took the time to address a few other questions that I had about plumbing issues at our property. I definitely intend to keep him in my phone as our go-to plumber.

HIRE THIS GUY!!!!! He was on time, he quickly assessed the issues and solved them. He had outstanding workmanship, excellent customer service, was very reasonable, and had a nice personality. We were very pleased with this plumber. We highly recommend him.
Description of Work: After purchasing this home, we replaced the countertops in the kitchen and bathrooms with granite and replaced all the sinks. A plumber was needed to install the new faucets and garbage displosal. Some of the piping broke off at the wall when the old sinks were removed so there was some concern about repairing them.

I was very pleased with the experience and would recommend Mr. Aviksis to anyone!
Description of Work: Mr. Aviksis replaced an old 40 gallon water heater, put in a new kitchen sink fixture, and diagnosed/repaired a longstanding problem with poor water pressure in my kitchen sink. I was especially appreciative that the water pressure problem was addressed, as I had asked other plumbers about it in the past without any resolution. I was very pleased with my interactions with Mr. Aviksis: His initial responsiveness, his follow through on communicating, and the skill he brought to completing the repairs. I also enjoyed chatting with him while he did the work--he is personable as well as professional! I thought the price he charged was fair and reasonable. All went very well, and I would definitely hire Mr. Aviksis again for any plumbing issues.

Shimon was great and would absolutely use him again. He was able to see me the day I called and came right over. He was prompt, courteous and professional and was not only able to fix my main problem, a clogged toilet, but also on the spot fixed our shower handle as well as replace the showerhead. He also answered a few other questions we had about other plumbing in the house, which was very helpful. I would highly recommend him!!
Description of Work: Shimon snaked a clogged toilet, replaced a shower head and fixed the shower handle/temperature regulator. In the process of fixing the handle, he discovered a small leak behind the plate and fixed that as well.

My water heater began to leak. I called dozens of places to get quotes and Aviksis Plumbing was the most reasonable. He came the following morning, and installed the new water heater. While he was here, I asked him if he would also replace my disposal, which he did willingly, even though this was not an easy job because I wanted him to also move the drain. He was friendly, professional, and thorough, all at a very reasonable rate... what else can you ask for? Thanks, Shimon!
Description of Work: Replaced water heater, including disposing of the old one. Replaced garbage disposal, moved the drain.

Overall, I was very pleased with the quality of work and professionalism on the job. I would happily recommend Aviksis for plumbing needs. I was pointed to Aviksis Plumbing on a reference from Mr. Fix-It, and Aviksis was able to schedule time next-day to do the job at my request. This wasn't an easy job as I had a leaking 80-gallon water heater and five flights of stairs to get to it. But the removal of the existing water heater and the installation of the new one went smoothly and the job was done in less than three hours. The price quoted by Aviksis, which included a six-year warranty on the new water heater, was slightly less than what some competitors quoted me. The price quote was given before I agreed to the job, was given sight unseen, and the service was provided at exactly that rate.
Description of Work: I had an 80-gallon electric water heater leaking out from the top. The water heater needed to be removed, and a new one installed. The service included the new water heater - I did not purchase it separately.

We had water dripping from our living room ceiling on Christmas day, we placed a bucket under it and waited until the next day to find a plumber. I had to call many plumbers until we found Shimon, he was referred through Mr Fix-It, who wasn't able to make it. Thank-you Mr Fix-It! Shimon arrived within a half hour, he was able to diagnose and locate the problem with minimal holes in our living room ceiling and bedroom wall, it was quite impressive. He did not have the piece needed to replace the broken pipe, he left to purchase one. He returned within an hour, replaced the pipe and we were able to turn the water back on. We also had an issue with a loss of water pressure coming from a faucet, he quickly cleaned out the faucet and restored the water pressure. Throughout Shimon was professional and easy to work with, he cleaned up dust from cutting into the wall and ceiling and on top of it all gave us a very reasonable price for the work. We will absolutely use him again for all plumbing work.

I had a significant leak or leaks from the pipes and hoses below my kitchen faucet. Having crawled under the sink myself to try to replace a leaking sprayer hose, I knew that the leak(s) was/were up behind the garbage disposal in a spot that was very hard to reach. I called Aviksis Plumbing on a Saturday and heard back from a plumber, Shimon, within an hour. I described the leak and he advised me to buy a new faucet set before he came by. He said that, especially given the age of the faucet, it did not make sense for him to come by and try to identify the broken part and then try to find one to match. I think he was right because the faucet was a low quality set installed by the previous homeowner that had leaked previously. As my faucet is unusually configured, he asked me to text him a picture of the faucet and I did. I later texted him a picture of the faucet set that I was going to buy from Home Depot. He confirmed that it would work and scheduled the work for Sunday at 10 a.m. He called me on Sunday morning to tell me that he was going to be at my house by 9:30, which was fine. He replaced the faucet within an hour. He was very professional and pleasant to deal with. The installation would have been $140 but, as he had to replace a couple of hoses, it ended up being $172, which I consider a fair price for the difficult work that he did in a cramped space. I highly recommend Aviksis Plumbing.

Great plumber. I called on Sat. afternoon to report that I wanted a kitchen faucet replaced and a bathtub drain mechanism fixed. They called back in 20 minutes and asked for photographs of the bathtub drain. I sent them via e-mail. Two minutes later he called back saying he could fix it tomorrow, (a Sunday). I told him it was not an emergency, but he said he would come on a Sunday and work at normal rates. He said he could come at 8:00am, and he showed up at 7:45am. He was done by 9:00 am with both the faucet and the bathtub drain. Everything cleaned up. Simple as pie. Just awesome.
