What I thought was a leaking elbow joint on the kitchen sink drainage pipe in the basement turned out to be a completely broken vent pipe well above the suspect elbow joint. Michael showed me the problem and I immediately started contemplating the bill (cut open wall to access vent pipe, cut pipe, replace pipe, yada yada yada). Michael was great. He gave me the worse case scenario and pricing, but told me if all went well, he could probably get it done for less. Well, it turned out to be a big job and Michael did his best to keep it simple to keep the costs down. During the process, we had some good chats, told some good stories, and found out we had some things in common. In the end, the repair was not cheap, but neither was the workmanship. Michael did a fantastic job and the kitchen stack looks like it will last another 50 years! You get what you pay for. I paid for a professional job and that is what I got. Hopefully I don't need plumber anytime soon but if I do, Michael is the man I will call.
