Absolutely fantastic work done on my clogged faucets, and, given how quick the job was, a superbly inexpensive rate was negotiated. Extremely fair, and honest. HIGHLY recommended. Yevgeny also took the time to answer some of my other, general contracting questions. Great advice and very thorough.

Yevgeni is as professional and honest as it gets. He educated me with exactly what he was doing with my sink pipes and even came with replacement parts. He walked me through the garage as well to show where improvements could be made to the outdated plumbing so the problem doesn't keep reoccurring. The service was thorough and very reasonably priced.

Revised - He contacted me again today and explained his process for repairing the issue should he come. I think there must be an issue with how he describes things over the phone because I understood him to say he was going to stop by when he was in the area on a specific date and he said he never committed to that and wanted to charge me $250 for a visit. Again I can't attest to the quality of his work because I didn't feel comfortable continuing but I think communication could definitely be improved.


Original - Disappointed in the follow up. He started out being very helpful - answering calls and looking at our photos. But then he agreed to come by our house to investigate the issue and never came. He hasn't responded to me contacting his phone number in over a week now. I can't attest to the quality of his work but follow through has been poor. Happy to revise the review if we receive service.

Edited because I realized I mistakenly posted another electricians review here. Below is my general sf review.

Nice guy, charges a VERY steep $250 minimum he reveals when he's on the way over. Asked for my involvement in the process but there wasn't much to do, so in reality he was taking me away from my work only to keep me involved with every minutia of the inspection. I believe it's good for me to understand what's going on but only to a point. I spent a total of 1.5 hours with him.

Couldn't fix my issue nor did he have a clear idea of how to solve it. Spoke ill of other items in my house having nothing to do with electricity. He disconnected the problem wires and left. Sent over some expensive recommendations. Though the best recommendation he gave me was to call the original electrician, which I did, who then visited and fixed the issue in under 30min.

So while he's an extremely nice guy, I felt like my time and money could have gone further.

Yevgeny has come to rescue us a couple of times. We were having a major leak in our plumbing and he came out after hours to take a look and get us temporarily fixed until our landlord came back to allow more work to be done. Yevgeny was available to take phone calls and provide support while the landlord was gone. I highly recommend using him and think he is very knowledgeable.

I'd like to thank Eugine for honest and professional approach handling my problem with water heater (gas pilot wouldn't stay lit). I left a message explaining problem, and Eugine called me back, leaving msg with possible problems (thermocouple is broken, etc) and possible price for fixing it. Unfortunately, Eugine wasn't available to come over the same day, so I had to call another company. The guy came, said that thermocouple needs to be replaced, fixed it, and charged within the range Eugine predicted.
Good job, Eugine! Thanks!

I contacted Yvgeney to ask for a quote to install a new GFCI outlet in my bathroom. I explained my circumstances and he explained that the project will be very expensive due to my concrete flooring.

He offered a reasonable alternative and carefully explained what I should do.

My review is based solely on the interaction on the phone and I give him 5 stars! If I move forward with any future projects, I will make sure to give him a call.

Thanks again!

Yevgeny was great. I called him on a Sunday because our power was out. Although he was busy working some other jobs, he made time to come to my house. Once he was there he was able to solve the problem and get the power back on within a few minutes. He also didn't charge me for the visit. He was very professional and responsive.

Jake H.

Yvgeney visited our house and said he would get back with an estimate. He still does not respond emails or text messages about our plumbing problem. If he doesn't want to do the work, he should simply tell us. We have given up on him.

Wow! Wow! Wow!

I had to call a plumber for a friend of mine in the Ingleside District near SFSU who needed his main sewer line snaked. Yevgeny came by in the late afternoon and worked at the line for a good amount of time before he came to me to explain what the problem was, what he tried to do to fix it, and what needed to be done in order to get it fixed.
Here's the mind blowing part - He explained he didn't have the specialized equipment needed to clear this particular drain, so he told us what equipment was needed and insisted ""No Charge"" for the time he'd been working.

There were several things that impressed me:

1) He was very candid and honest in telling us he didn't have the right equipment.
2) He was very helpful in explaining exactly what size and kind of snake was needed.
3) He was kind enough not to charge for time he had spent because he couldn't help clear the drain.

That kind of a work ethic makes him trustworthy, reliable, honest and competent in my book. He's head and shoulders above any of the ""Bargain Plumbers"" by a mile. Next time I have any plumbing issues at all, he's my first call!
