Karl (Protractor NYC) and his team are great! My water heater/tank that uses heating oil to heat was broken. I asked for estimates, many gave me very inflated estimates. But Karl's labor charge is reasonable and he spent time coming to my home to check the hardiness of my water, and recommended the best water tank/heater that works for me, ended up saving money by not going to some premium tank that I do not need for my home's water condition. Also, he patiently checked to ensure what pieces I need to replace and which are still working, so I don't waste money on them. He is professional, very knowledgeable, and really willing to go the extra mile to ensure I get good quality service with reasonable price. They are a property management company, in addition to plumbing, I would consider calling Karl to look at my HVAC and Boiler annual maintenance. Thank you, Karl.
Details: Yes, the location has an existing heater • Gas tank (standard) • I would like the pro to buy the water heater • House

We tried to mount a tv to the wall ourselves and quickly realized that we were in over our head. I did a little research and found Protractor NYC and they responded within minutes. Two hours later they were at our door. Karl and Jonathan were friendly and professional. They did a thorough job and were out of here 20 minutes later. I will definitely be using their services again. Thank you, Karl and Jonathan!
Details: Wall mount • Drywall • TV smaller or equal to 60 inches • Yes, there’s an electrical outlet nearby • No, I don’t need to conceal cables and wires • Yes, I already have a mount or stand • Flat against wall (fixed) • None

Karl and Jonathan were excellent! They came on time and stayed until my new heat pump water heater worked to perfection. They tested everything, cleaned up and did a great job. You can tell they enjoy what they do and know their stuff. Will definitely use them and recommend them to anyone!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
At Protractor NYC, our pricing reflects the level of care, craftsmanship, and reliability we bring to every job. We focus on doing the work right the first time, with close attention to detail, high-quality workmanship, and clear communication from start to finish.
We’re not the cheapest option—and that’s intentional. Our clients choose us because they value professional results, respectful service, and dependable follow-through. We stand by our work, and if something isn’t right, we make it right.
With Protractor NYC, you’re not just paying for labor—you’re investing in peace of mind, long-lasting results, and a team that treats your home or property as if it were our own.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Our process is designed to be simple, transparent, and stress-free.
We start by learning about your project—either through our online booking form, photos and details you provide, or a quick conversation if needed. This helps us understand the scope of work and prepare the right team and materials.
Once everything is reviewed, we provide clear, straightforward pricing with no hidden fees. We don’t nickel and dime projects, and we don’t believe in surprise charges. To secure your service date, we require a 50% deposit, with the remaining balance due upon completion.
On the day of service, our professionals arrive on time, protect your space, and complete the work with careful attention to detail.
After the job is complete, we review the work with you, clean up thoroughly, and make sure you’re satisfied. We stand by our workmanship and are always available if you have questions or need follow-up support.
From first contact to final walkthrough, our goal is to make your experience straightforward, professional, and reliable.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
At Protractor NYC, experience is one of our greatest strengths. Each member of our Field Leadership Team brings a minimum of 15 years of hands-on experience across multiple construction trades.
This depth of experience allows us to quickly identify issues, plan projects efficiently, and deliver high-quality workmanship. Our leadership team oversees every project to ensure work is done correctly, safely, and to professional standards.
Whether it’s a small repair or a complex renovation, our experience means fewer surprises, better results, and a smoother overall process for our clients.
