Review and analyze now for company Maximum Plumbing and provide the analysis in the discussed format for the following reviews: '''It was a pleasure hiring Max to install a tankless water heater. Price: Very reasonable Workmanship: Excellent, passed inspection without a hitch Responsive: Very responsive and proactive Attitude: Genuine and upfront, knowlegeable Product: Navien 240A2, too soon to tell, but the unit is quieter than a tankless Noritz I had in the past and sends reliable hot water to all my fixtures at once.
I hope to not have any plumbing issues in the near future but Max is at the top of my shortlist for plumbing work. Loved Max.
He was at my house 3 hours after me asking for help with my water heater on Yelp. He got straight to business, worked through the annoyances of how my heater unit was setup, and identified that a piece needed replacing.
He carried spares of common defective parts for my unit, which means he was able to swap this out for me on the spot. He even taught me a couple of things about how heater systems work.
And he charged an affordable rate, which I know because of having multiple other plumbers come out to unsuccessfully diagnose the issue. Thanks Max, expect a call next time something goes wrong :) Max is solid--I had a unique situation related to an ongoing rodent problem that required a smoke test to see if any undetectable openings would still be allowing rats to come inside our house, even though our rodent control guy already sealed the house.
Most places flat out refused the service altogether but Max was happy to assist. Found two open vents that needed to be extended out through the roof, highly likely the potential openings as Max discovered chewed vent hosing and rodent .
If left unattended he said raw sewage smell could come through. Now that this is addressed, our rodent guy can seal those vents and fingers crossed, can finally be rid of unwanted guests.
Max is very friendly, quick in responding to inquiries and questions over text, showed up on time for the project, and finished it quickly and efficiently. Will keep him in mind for future projects! My brand new Navien water heater had a bum part.
I looked up Navien certified techs in my area on their website and called the first one on the list. They showed up and diagnosed the problem and ordered the parts.
They then sent me a quote for over $850 for a 15 minute job that should be covered under warranty. I called Max.
He had the part on hand and agreed to install them the next morning and let me retrieve the parts from the other plumber and send them back to him. Total out of pocket cost.
$0. Hot shower the next morning Priceless.
Thank you Max. You rock! We bought an older home in Burbank a couple of months ago and needed an earthquake shut-off valve for the gas to make sure that if something happens the house wouldn't explode in the process.
It was called out multiple times by our inspectors that requested it be placed. But of course, the problem was more complex than just putting in a shut-off valve (it always seems to be).
I called dozens of plumbers and we got prices ranging from 300 all the way to 900. I called Max and even after he learned there would be a re-pipe since some components of the pipe were smaller than bigger and needed to be uniform he of course had to charge us more than agreed before but the price was more reasonable than any other plumber I had look at the picture.
He finished the job in about 2 hours and the new setup is awesome he even painted the pipes grey to avoid the rusting from the water heater. All in all a nice, honest, and hard-working dude.
Would highly recommend him. Had a great experience hiring Maksym recently.
Our washing machine was flooding, and the appliance company told us to check the drain pipe first. Max responded quickly and came out the next morning to determine that the drain pipe wasn't the source of the leak.
While he was there, we also had him provide an estimate for a pressure regulator. His price was fair and he was able to complete the work the same day.
We will definitely keep him in mind for any future plumbing needs. Bonuses - he was nice, professional, cleaned up after himself, and wore booties when walking through our house which was appreciated! Amazing plumber.
Very responsive and the owner is very knowledgeable. He was on time everytime and yes I had him come multiple times as he did multiple jobs for us.
Pricing is competitive. I would hire him again in a heartbeat! Maksym is second to none in customer service.
He responds to any message promptly. The guy is very knowledgeable and very nice and courteous.
The moment I met him I knew that is what I am looking for as a plumber. He explained to me what the problem is with my pipe and what needed to be done.
I couldn't be any happier to deal with this honest man . I recommend him highly and will his contact to anyone who asks for a good and honest plumber Thank you Maksym.
I've used Max for multiple projects (three in total). He helped me with putting in a gas line for my grill, setting up new gas hook ups for a larger gas meter, and a full build out/installation of a water treatment system (water softener, RO system).
Max is very thorough, efficient, and easy to work with. He is transparent and sticks to his word.
I will continue to use him going forward. I had several different plumbers come by to give estimates, including my current plumber.
I think Max was the most honest and most fairly priced about upgrading to a tankless water heater. He has done a great job and was excellent with communication and after install we've had no issues.
Definitely found a good one here with Max. Thanks I should have written this review, before I went to bed on New Year's night.
I had been in denial about a noise I'd been hearing for several weeks. For some reason, on New Year's Day, I was brought reality that the noise was a leaky pipe under my house.
Of course THEN I panicked. A friend both recommended & called Max.
He was kind enough to show up at my house at 5:30 p.m. that same night.
He had to crawl under a mud-filled foundation, remove and replace a portion of a leaky copper pipe. The entire visit took about an hour.
His final cost was UNBELIVABLEY REASONABLE - much lower then I could have ever imagined, especially on a holiday. His work, his work ethic, and personality are beyond a 5-Star review.
Thank you, Max. I've already let many friends know what a great experience I had.
I had been working with a great plumber for a bit who wasn't available for a recent project so I took it to Yelp and after a few convos/quotes, Max checked the honest plumber vibe and bonus that he came at the best price. I had an idea of what to do and how long it would be which is a couple of hours for a pro, so the other quotes up to 3.5 times more (from someone who has 5 stars here) was insane! Max's quote was very fair and he is honest and the only one who bothered to even communicate what really needs to be done, which checks out from my previous research, so I really appreciate that.
Max will be my new go-to from now on! I had an RO unit to install under my sink and my once reliable plumber had started over charging for everything so I thought it a good time to shop around. SO HAPPY I DID! Not only did Max install the RO, he could hear water running and tracked it to a toilet we had previously had issues with.
He installed a new toilet for less than I'd spent fixing it numerous times! Def using Max for all future needs! Responsive, Good work. Knowledgeable.
Came out in a rainy Sunday. Totally appreciated that.
Would totally use him again in the future. Showed up after hours to replace and remove a broken kitchen faucet.
Was super quick and very nice! Highly recommended for all of your plumbing fixes. Maksym is the best plumber in LA.
I've hired him on a number of projects, ranging from kitchen sink repairs to a ceiling leak. He knows his stuff comprehensively.
Once he fixes something, it stays fixed. He's totally honest about the repairs you need.
He's always on time, cleans up his work, is friendly and charges way below market rates. He is the only plumber I hire.
I have been looking for a good plumber for many many years since my old one passed away! Max is terrific! If you need someone who will work very hard, do the job and done right and for the right price, Max is your man! Very dependable! Arrives on time cleans up afterwards, and is just the perfect plumber for anyone to have! This review is for Maksym, the owner of Maximum Plumbing. So thankful I found and used his service in a gas leak detection and repair this week.
He replied on a query I had posted so promptly and offered to come out to provide a free estimate. He was professional, polite, punctual, and most importantly honest.
Out of the other quotes we had, his was the most sincere, genuine, and trustworthy. He didn't take advantage of the situation and kept us informed each step of the way until he resolved the situation.
Will definitely use him in future projects and highly suggest his service to anyone looking to have some work done. Thanks for doing an awesome work Maksym.
Just came here to echo all the other 5 star reviews. Whatever Max says is wrong, is wrong.
The man is honest, hard working, professional, and neat. No games, shows up early, works hard the whole time, and does extremely clean work.
He has done multiple projects for me and found a leaking toilet, saving my sub floor. Can't say enough good things about this guy.
Do yourself a favor and hire him. I hired Max again in June 2023 and he did a great job once again.
I'll keep coming back to Max, and I've started to recommend him to my neighbors as well. He's the real deal, thank you Max.
Our main line to the house stopped working. Maximum plumbing was there within an hour.
He had the water back on in no time and had it fixed in a couple of hours. Very responsive! Our gas bill was 10 times higher than the previous month, so I sent a message to Maksym on Yelp to help find the leak.
He replied in 10 minutes with a next day appointment. He found the leak quickly, replaced the piping, and checked to make sure there were no other leaks.
And while he was waiting to see if there were any leaks, he coated an unrelated, rusty pipe to help prevent leaking in the future. He is a good guy, I recommend him.
Max is a fantastic, punctual, honest, and hard working plumber. A real breath of fresh air after dealing with so many others.
His work was excellent and he knows quite a bit about the harder to solve, mysterious plumbing issues that creep up from time to time. Definitely will be calling Max before anyone else for all my future plumbing needs.
Max came out and fixed our emergency hose bibb problem. He responded immediately and did such a professional job.
He is very nice and helpful. One the best contractors I've used in a long time! We have a bidet!! Maksym was fast to respond, able to show up on short notice, prompt, efficient and friendly.
He installed our bidet and changed over our sink that had hot & cold on the opposite sides in 30 minutes or less. We will absolutely be using him for any future plumbing jobs.
Thanks Maksym! Had the pleasure of hiring Max for replacing 2 faucets. Max was here on time..
Pricing is the best among other competing quotes. Will definitely re hire Max for the next job.
I hired Maxim some time ago, in the fall, when I was visiting my sister in Burbank (Los Angeles). Late at night, a pipe burst in the basement of our house, we were awakened by a very loud noise of spilling water, I turned off the water in the house and decided to look for someone in the morning.
I was lucky and in the morning I found Maxim, he arrived an hour after my conversation with him, quickly found the reason and named the price of the repair work. My sister was satisfied with the price that Maxim called for emergency help with a copper pipe in the basement.
I appreciate Maxim for punctuality, high quality of work and friendliness. I will definitely recommend his plumbing services to all my friends in LA! Maksym went above and beyond with helping me install a new tankless water heater! He gave me several price point options, all of which were extremely reasonable, he was on time, honest and efficient, I honestly can't say enough good things, hire this man! I certainly will for any and all my future plumbing needs :) Max was quick to respond and very thorough when he pressure tested all of our lines due to a possible gas leak.
He is also reasonably price and honest. I will definitely use Max again for all of my plumbing needs.
Our toilet developed a leak just before we were set to travel for 5 weeks. A neighbor recommended Max and we're glad we hired him.
Though he knew we didn't have time to shop around because of our imminent departure, he didn't raise the price, which was fair. Pointed out a couple of things but didn't attempt to up-sell me.
Very sweet guy, too. This was a small job, so can't speak to larger projects, but I would definitely call him again.
I initially reached out to Max to install a hot and cold water dispenser, but little did I know that he would end up being a life savor! Max arrived on time for our appointment and he did a fantastic job installing the instant hot water tank and filtration system. While he was finishing up, I brought to his attention other issues that I had noticed around the house and that's when he offered to go into the crawl space to check things out.
What he found is nothing short of shocking. Max was able to provide photos and videos of 2 separate pipes that had leaks.
My crawl space was looking more like a swimming pool with all the leaks. Max was able to address both issues immediately and provided fair pricing on all the work.
Max also found a gas valve that shows a small leak in the crawl space. I do not even want to know know what could have happened if Max never spotted these issues, but I am thankful for his expertise and honestly.
I will forever be grateful to Max and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for help. Thanks again Max! One of the best contractors we've had in our house hands down.
I cannot recommend Max more fully. If you want to hear a personal review, feel free to message me.
Replied fast, was able to get to it right away, fixed the problem and it's working great. I'll be using Maximum Plumbing for future plumbing issues, hopefully, it won't be anytime soon.
