I am desperate to find a good plumber, at this point my expectations are pretty low. I contacted Peter Levi plumbing weeks in advance, for a bathroom remodel. All I needed was to have the Shower Trim installed. Simple right? We encountered one of the slowest moving plumbers in the universe, who came up with every excuse in the book, found him enjoying our views, and making at least 6 trips to his van and did a lot of scratching his head and blaming the company that sold me the product (trust me, it wasn't the product). The trips to the van for whatever was a bit predictable, how many tools do you need to install the trim? He commented on everything, had to spend a lot of time "thinking," and in my opinion, managed to stretch a 2-3 hour job into 2 days. He ended the first appt. saying he needed to return with new screws, only to use the original screws on his return visit 3 weeks later. They insist on charging by the hour, well, I couldn't stand around watching him for over 6 hours, but I imagine, when my back was turned, our friend the plumber was taking his good old sweet time, letting the clock run. I had him leave early without cleaning up, because I couldn't take it anymore. He felt pretty good about his work, I felt better when he finally left. All in all, it's the same old routine, slow and overpriced...it's a good gig if you can get it. Cheryl was nice on the phone...but like I said, I still need a plumber. My search continues.
Pros: Friendly receptionist. Eventually got the job done.
Cons: Slow, very slow.
