Hickey's Plumbing & Heating

In 2019, I hired Mike Hickey for plumbing and gas fitting job of a big gut renovation. He always took 1/2 the money in advance, and the rest half way through the job, so was always paid in full. Without consulting me or my contractor, he ripped up finished dining room floors and incorrectly drew venting below a planned deck, contrary to code. My contractor and I pleaded with Mike for weeks to fix this and he refused. So we hired another plumber and it cost us $7,500 to repair the floors and redo the venting correctly. 7 months later Hickey sued me for $6,500, even though he was paid in full, and this frivolous law suit is still ongoing 5 years later! Beware of this plumber.

Lost hot water at the shower and likely culprit was the Moen PosiTemp cartridge. No problem. Went to HD, bought the cartridge, came home and tried to remove the old one. Hahaha Did. Not. Budge. Tried to rip the thing out for over an hour, but it was so corroded it had fused with the faucet. It was about 4pm when I started to panic. Couldn't put the control valve back together because it was so f broken. Basically an open tap. I looked up a Waltham plumber with some good reviews and called Hickey's Plumbing. Michael answered, understood the problem and said he would be there within the hour. He was there in 40 min. Michael and the guy he was working with were there right away when I needed help, fixed it so I could turn the water back on, ordered the parts and came back in a day to install them. Both Michael and his assistant plumber were fast and professional.
