Who We Are

Our Story

Michael Warshaw has always been a “problem solver”. He relishes the opportunity to dive into a tricky problem and find the best solution, which is often novel or unexpected. Since he also has “hands of gold”, plumbing was a natural fit. Michael learned the trade from his father Abe– a Master Plumber. While his high school friends were playing sports and racing cars, Michael was joining his dad on ride-alongs and assisting at job sites. His father did not simply teach him the skills of a master plumber, he imbued in him the level of care, pride in workmanship, and personal touch that’s passed from father to son, from generation to generation.

Michael quickly earned his own reputation as a trusted, expert plumber. He’s the guy that you can call anytime. He answers his own phone and he knows you by name. Michael’s reputation and the demand for his services grew and upon receiving his own Master Plumber license in 2001, he launched A&M — to better serve clients that consider him “the only person they would ever call”. As the company expanded, Michael knew that he had to bring in a partner with actual business experience. He didn’t need to look far.

Michael’s wife Aviva, is a skilled architect who is as comfortable on a construction or development site –where she spent most of her days–, as she is drafting or reviewing plans. Additionally, Aviva’s love of people and perfectionism would provide the personal touch that A&M’s growing family of customers deserves. The business continues to flourish as NYC’s most respected professionals demand the expertise and personalization that only A&M Warshaw Plumbing & Heating Inc. provides.
