Review and analyze now for company Magic Men Service and provide the analysis in the discussed format for the following reviews: '''I have used Magic Men on several projects. They are always responsive, professional and easy to work with.
I find them helpful and would recommend them to anyone. Repeat customer.
For this issue Mike and his crew did a fantastic job fixing a leak and clog going on in my bathroom sink. Any plumbing issues I always reach out to Mike.
He provides quick, friendly, high quality and professional service. Thanks again Mike! The WORST.
The supervisor Mike is 100% unprofessional as he verbally berated us AFTER a horrible experience with his plumber. Our experience? I'll explain so you can know NOT to hire this company.
Our volunteer HOA members hired Magic Men to do a simple repair on a common hot water pipe, which was originally quoted to us at $550, for our 19 unit building. We were told it would take 3 hours with a 9am arrival and a 12pm completion.
The plumber rescheduled their original appointment because 'they needed another part" and due to the increase of labor, the new price would be $1,200. We were annoyed at this, because the plumbers had days to realize what they needed for this work, but we agreed to the surprise price because the repair would help one of our unit owner's sell her unit.
The plumber ended up being 3 hours late. The water was shut off ALL DAY for our ENTIRE building.
When they arrived, they said they were missing another part, so they left AGAIN after arriving late. This is when our patience started getting tested.
When the plumber came back, he was completely incompetent / flustered and couldn't complete the repair, even with the owner of MM calling and yelling at him. The leak was still present even after HOURS of the plumber trying to fix it, and back-and-forth nonsense.
We fired the plumber before the repair could be successfully completed, because it seemed like the plumber had no idea what he was doing. We hired another company who had to charge us an emergency visit fee.
All in all - Magic Men was a complete nightmare for our HOA to work with and we do not recommend them. Stellar.
On time, got the work done as quoted, expected...and did a good job. Even then there was still some follow up left, and they made sure to promptly communicate and get all the diagnosed work done.
Great guys, knowledgeable, friendly...and fast. Which for plumbing is kinda important.
Thanks Mike. This is our 2nd time working with Magic Men and it definitely won't be our last.
We had a new water heater installed today and it was a great experience. They are extremely responsive, professional, and overall pleasant people.
My search is finally over. Thank you for once again giving us peace of mind! Problem = leaking 2016 water heater tank that has not been serviced in minimum of 3 years (unfortunate ignorance on my part) I was horrified by the price and faced with further expenses of having to cut my countertop and remove the cabinet to my leaking/dying water heater (per the first consultation with another plumbing company).
I randomly found Magic Men under local plumbers so I called Magic Men for a second opinion. Mike's quote was affordable and his assessment was very informative so my father and I proceeded with the job with his team.
He was able to find a good unit for me despite the Labor day weekend (it's an uncommon type of water heater). When his team arrived on the job, they were able to overcome the handful of surprise hurdles presented by my strangely inconvenient kitchen (remodel done by the previous owner).
They also informed me of issues they discovered surrounding the "mess" that is my kitchen. I am happy with their service and look forward to possibly having them do future projects.
A big ZERO. They charged me $900 to to fix a leak in my bathroom in December.
The link was never fixed. I scheduled another appointment in March and they were a no-show.
Someone showed up the next day claiming to work for this company and brought no supplies with him. He said a quote would be delivered.
Never received the quote. Honest to God the person I let in not my home could have been a criminal.
I contact the company and was told I did not contact them within 90 days of the original service and as a result there is nothing they can do. Hmmm.
Contact the company in March is within 90 days. Shame on you Magic Men.
What a complete disaster. I will file a complaint with the BBB but do not think this company is accredited.
For years there was something wrong with the toilet in the main bathroom. After trying (and paying a fortune) many local plumbers, I called Mike at Magic Men Service.
As a Master Plumber he explained everything that was wrong and showed me exactly what needed to be done. Prices were reasonable.
No problems since! Arrived just when promised. Took care of my leaking dishwasher quickly.
Highly recommended! Reached out on Friday night after our 20+ year old water heater went out. I sent a couple of photos via text and got an estimate right away.
Magic Men was able to source a replacement for install the next morning. They showed up right on time, and we had hot water in a few hours.
Not having hot water is a pain, but getting our heater replaced with Magic Men was painless. Highly recommend! Called Magic Men after my water heater went out.
Reached out to multiple plumbers and they were the only ones who would give me a quote over the phone. All others needed to come out to give me a quote and I had already had one other plumber come over who quoted me much higher than what Magic Men came out at.
They installed the new water heater with no issue and gave me some tips about maintenance and other things around my condo that I was unaware of. Professional, friendly, and cost effective.
Couldnt ask for more. Highly recommend! Gave these guys over $2,000 to change drain pipes and replace a faucet.
Long story short, they never replaced the faucet and I'm still "waiting for parts" for one of the drains 8 months later. Called them about a leaky sink & they were extremely quick and reliable! Definitely going to give them a call anytime I have any problems EVER! *well..
hopefully I won't have another plumbing problem.. but you get what I mean Mike and his team are very professional and diligent.
They did a great job on the services I requested and even provided the excellent workarounds when things didn't fit with my old house. I would highly recommend them and call them in the future.
I had a problem with a unit for a tenant and these guys were pretty quick to get over there. Apparently there was nothing wrong because there was no charge.
I can't make this stuff up. They definitely earned a new customer for any unit I own in Chicago west loop and for anyone else that has a problem nearby.
Called for an immediate need to clear out main sewer line. They were very responsive and efficient with hydro jetting with great results.
Very competitive pricing compared to others. Would hire again and highly recommended!! The crew came in and gave an estimate for 2 toilets to be replaced, a kitchen faucet to be replaced, and pipe clean out/camera services.
The crew picked up the toilets and faucet from Home Depot which was a great relief. The scheduling was easy and quick and the work was done efficiently! Thanks so much! Super happy with Mike's responsiveness and turnaround time.
His technician, Gabe was on site immediately and they had my water heater completely replaced (wow) and hot water restored to my house within a few hours of first meeting him. This business is supportive of military veterans in their hiring and discounts.
Highly recommend for your plumbing and water heater needs. very professional and nice.
they came as soon as i submitted a quote on yelp and took care of a clogged drain with this huge electric drain snake. would recommend them again for minor plumbing fixes like a clogged drain vs.
the usual plumbers who asked me for $269 just to reserve a spot I posted on Yelp for quotes to replace my hot water heater and this was not only the first to respond, but also was the best price. They came when promised and did a great job with the install.
I was just waiting for something to go wrong because nobody is the first to respond with the best price and then actually follow through and do a good job. But they did! The sewer pipe that leads out from our building started leaking.
Magic Men came and took a look. They suggested doing a hydro jet and camera inspection.
They came back two days later and do the work. They took the time to show me the camera inspection and explain what was happening.
The other firm I had out to look at things suggested digging before doing a camera inspection. While we did find an issue that will eventually require digging it is about 10 feet from where the other plumber wanted to dig.
The hydro jetting was much less expansive than digging and i can deal with the other issue later. Mike who did the work was friendly, helpful and punctual.
Would call them again. called Magic Men when we started to smell a terrible odor in the house - came over within an hour (scheduled via text) and fixed clogging issue in sump room free of charge in about 30 seconds.
Explained the issue to me and how to fix should it ever happen again. The guys that came to assist were incredibly friendly and professional.
Would call them again in a heartbeat should we have any plumbing issues. Mike was great to work with.
He was able to find my plumbing issue and gave me a good price. My bathtub was draining very slowly.
I went on Angi f/k/a Angie's List for plumber recommendations. Magic Men Service had great reviews so I chose them as the company I would use.
Mike called me promptly and told me he could have someone stop by in a half hour. Willie arrived within that time frame, assessed the problem, and rodded out my bathtub drain.
Willie was courteous, knowledgeable, and professional. I would highly recommend him.
The reason I didn't give Magic Men Service 5 stars is because I thought the price they charged was a bit high. I would consider using them in the future.
Mike and his team did a fabulous job of pulling me out of a terrible plumbing situation with my grease trap. He was honest, paid attention to detail and was creative; the perfect combination for a plumber.
He saved me a lot of money. I will definitely be using his services for all future plumbing needs.
Skilled team provides excellent and fast service. Very trustworthy and knowledgeable.
Will be calling Magic Men next time I have a plumbing issue. Mike and his team were great.
Had a leak the building engineer couldn't find, called multiple plumbers and none responded as quickly as Mike. Came same day with estimate, him and his crew arrived 10 minutes early the next morning and got right to work.
Explained what they were doing and did just a wonderful job. Couldn't possibly be happier with Magic Men Service and while I hope to never need the services again, if I do, they'll be first call I make.
My roommate is a property manger and asked to add them to his companies list of they reach out to! Magic Men was at my house within an hour after calling them. They solved my issues quickly and didn't even want to accept payment.
I will definitely be using them again. I flooded under the kitchen sink and my floor due to an issue with my disposal.
I called Magic Men and the two nicest guys came over and replaced my disposal. It was a great experience.
I'll definitely use them for any other plumbing needs in the future! I had a leaking 1 1/2 " galvanized pipe under the kitchen sink in my tenant's unit. Mike responded quickly and was able to inspect my issue within an hour.
I was fortunate that his team was able to get back to our unit the next day. They promptly fixed my issue and their pricing was fair.
Overall they were very professional and the communication was outstanding. I heavily recommend and would use again.
We had a toilet leak in one of our bathrooms and after a few handyman recommendations from neighbors, I decided to try a random company on yelp that was licensed and bonded, lol. The Manager responded promptly to my request and they were able to get someone out that evening.
The guy that arrived figured out what was wrong very quickly and fixed it in about 20 minutes. So far, no more issues from that toilet! Also a plus is that I received an invoice shortly after that I could pay from my phone.
Easy experience. Would definitely call again.
I had an issue with a jet tub and they were the only firm out of 5 that were willing to check it out. They were also the first to respond to the request.
He showed up on time and was able to fix the tub ridiculously fast. I would highly recommend their services.
My vanity came loose from the wall and experienced major water damage. Mike and the Magic Men team came in and replaced the vanity and plumbing for me at a reasonable price.
He even went to the store for me to buy parts I had forgotten to buy. Mike made this very easy for me and the job was completed on time.
When I told Mike my furnace wasn't working he offered to take a look at it for me as well. Was able to help me identify the problem so I can get it properly serviced and he didn't charge me a dime for the assessment.
I couldn't recommend these guys more. Fantastic service.
Came out to do an inspection with about 4 hours notice and replaced the broken disposal in the early am the day after. No complains and great job.
If you get Ronnie you're in great hands! I called for an external water pipe to get replaced and within 1.5hrs from my first call the job was done. Shockingly fast.
Will use again if needed. Came through on about a days notice and knocked out my wax ring replacement pretty quickly in my new house.
They were prompt and went above and beyond in helping me understand my issue and making a short term fix on another issue I wouldn't have gotten to otherwise. If I decide to look at a water issue in my attic I plan to call them back as well.
Only small beef is they didn't sweep up after they lifted the toilet before they left (I hadn't noticed, I'm sure they would've if I asked). I highly recommend Magic Men and look forward to working with them in the future.
The service was quick and reliable. However the problem was more than a fix and they were happy to refund the amount.
Also suggested what needed to happen. We requested service for our sewer and Mike responded very quickly, answered our questions, provided professional and personable services, responded to multiple texts very timely, very thorough, and knows his work.
I highly recommend doing business with Magic Men Service. This company tops others I have engaged with.
As a lesson to others in this business or any other, customer service is very highly viewed as important and if the customer interaction is missing, so is future business. Thank you Mike for providing us just what we expect when doing business and beyond.
Requested a quote after business hours via Yelp and Mike responded within 15 mins. Mike was very professional, responsive and provided great service.
He followed covid protocol, carefully prep the space, quickly addressed our drainage issue. He stayed with the quotes price, provided multiple payment options and gave me the opportunity to use what was best for me.
Great service and customer experience! Mike and his team were FANTASTIC! Basically I had two floors of sewage in my place and they did whatever was needed to clean it out and put my condo back together. When I asked Mike, "do you know someone who could take care of this random item?" he said "we'lll take care of it for you." And he said that a lot.
They are fast, reliable, and their product is very high quality. I won't use anyone else.
Was in need of quick, reliable plumbing services to replace a toilet and Magic Men Service did not disappoint. I submitted a late evening request for service the next day and Mike responded very quickly and had someone out the next morning.
Charles showed up as scheduled and quickly advised on my options to replace the toilet and everything was taken care of as promised. The customer service, quality of the work, and price were excellent and I'd certainly use them again for my plumbing needs.
I hired them for a drain install, dishwasher hookup, and disposal installation. They were exceptionally professional, and definitely the best contractors I used during this entire kitchen renovation.
They arrived on time, were professional and uniformed, friendly, and did the job for the price quoted with no nonsense. Their price was in line with other quotes I received, but the customer service was absolutely top-notch.
I was truly impressed and wish I had more jobs to hire them for! We had a guy come out to fix a gas leak. He wasn't comfortable doing the work because of the wording on the gas company report, which is fine.
However, he spoke over us, wouldn't let us get a word in, and continued to act like we didn't understand what he was saying or believe him. This company came to us by a recommendation so maybe we got a bad apple.
If you get Mill (spelling?), avoid at all costs. Extremely fast, very good communication, Got everything done quickly.
Turned out to only be the 'floater' (see what I did there) stuck with some debris that had to be knocked loose forcing it to run continuously. A bit hard to get to the rusted out bolts holding the basin cover down - so the true labor was there.
Very nice guy, clean. Only ding is overall cost was abit on the higher side - but they were out in less than 2 hours - so I can't complain'''.
