I was having water pressure issues and took advantage of a Strongbuilt Plumbing inspection offer. John Mancini assessed my problem and determined my problem was a PRV. John also clean the shower head filter screens and inspected all the plumbing fixtures in the house. John also flushed my water heater and determined my water heater anode needed to be replaced. John was very thorough, answered all my questions and explained all work. I was very happy with the price and service.

They were fine, they did excellent. I don’t have any negative things to go along with that, so everything is A, A, A, A, A. The price, I didn’t have anything to compare it with. I just have to leave it, the price has been excellent. They were on time. They were very professional.

The guy who did the service was pleasant but was not aware that a filter was to be included in the service and did not have one. When we turned the furnace on a few days later it would not work and we were concerned. We called Strongbuilt and the manager came out immediately. It was as simple as reconnecting a wire that had been disconnected during the cleaning and when he was told that we did not get our filter he gave as one. He also left his card and said we could contact him directly if we have any problems. We were happy with this and would use their services again.

The work was well done. The technician/plumber did a great job. The price was more i hoped to pay but was likely competitive for the field. I was charged exactly what was on the estimate that was given by the team that tuned up the furnace. The tune up seemed thorough although I mistakenly thought cleaning the furnace parts was part of the service. That was my mistake.

John gave me an estimate for just the loop and also one for connecting the system. He was the fourth plumber I called and the only one who knew exactly what I needed. So much so that he wrote me an estimate on the spot and at a reasonable price. I decided to have the entire job done as it seemed it would be the best and fastest way of getting my system up and running. Jesse was here 6.5 hours and made everything efficiently and neatly outside and also inside the house where the tanks are located. The outside pipes were wrapped with foam and tape. The next day I had some concerns and made two calls in to the company. I got a call back each time with patient and satisfactory answers to my questions. For professional, quality work I would not hesitate to call this company and am glad I chose them.

Fantastic!!! John Mancini was our repairman. He called ahead and asked if he could come early, and arrived quickly thereafter. Went to work right away on the first toilet (no filler) and finished it off. It works perfectly now. Started on second toilet (slow filler) and finished it. It fills now like it should - pronto. We started talking about our other plumbing issue - the "kitchen sink drain". He offered to take a look. Explained the problem. Ran out to Lowe's (because I had a gift card for that store) in his own truck to get the drain and came back and fixed that in no time. Reasonably pricing, too. He was punctual, polite and patient, fast-working and efficient, and generous in effort to get the job done - overall grade was A+++. Definitely would do business with the company again and recommend to others. Thank you, Strongbuilt Plumbing & Air. P.S. Forgot to check for coupon, but also called them for recent AC breakdown. Very impressed on timely handling of that problem, too.
Description of Work: Both toilets. One was filling slowly and one wasn't filling at all. $28 Plumbing Coupon for the one toilet.

John Schamahorn and SB P and A showed the utmost in professionalism throughout the entire process, from the initial assessment of the damage to our ancient systems all the way through to the removal, installation and start up of the new ones. Their prices were very competitive, but more importantly, the service displayed by their team as well as their follow up was even better. They provided a very detailed and accurate explanation as to the equipment being recommended, while showing great patience in all of the questions we had. They showed up on time, were courteous and respectful, went above and beyond what the job had called for and finally, the bill...the invoice was exactly as quoted! I would highly recommend John and his crew at SB P and A. Great Job!!!
Description of Work: The guys at SB P and A replaced both of our 17 year old A/C Units, Furnaces and Water Heaters which were in poor shape with a pair of 4 ton top of the line Lennox 26 Systems. The new systems are incredible and are well beyond what I could have expected. They included variable speed motors, high efficiency heat pumps, iPad like Smart Thermostats and a full 10 Year Warranty. We are very pleased and fully expect that our utility bills will see a dramatic improvement over the next 10 to 20 years without the fear that our system will ever go down again.

Response from Strongbuilt Plumbing & Air
There seems to be some confusion here. This consumer had purchased an Angie's List offering for a $38 "Tuneup". Upon arrival, the technician found the consumers system to be non-operational. The technician explained to the consumer that a "Tuneup" can be performed on a functioning system, since the system wasn't functioning at all, the consumer actually needed a "Diagnostic" service, which is not what he purchased. We honored the price of the tuneup and performed a full diagnostic inspection. It was determined that the consumer had a failed blower motor. We proposed to replace the blower motor and capacitor, as well as perform a blower wheel cleaning, but the consumer elected not to have the work done because he wanted an opportunity to get more estimates. Later we noticed that the consumer reviewed our company on Angie's List, and had given our company all A's except for "Pricing" where he gave us an F. We contacted the consumer to determine WHY we received an A rating on everything and then an F rating on price. The consumer said he found a company to do the same repair for less money. The problem is, he was happy with the $38 price he paid for the work we DID actually do, but yet, somehow still gave us an F rating for price? So in summary, the consumer purchased the wrong product, he should have purchased a $58 diagnostic service but instead bought a $38 tuneup service for a non-functioning system, we went ahead and honored the $38 price, which he was happy with, but, somehow, we got an F rating for price. The consumer has refused to revise his rating, and there is nothing more we can do, but we feel like it is a VERY VERY unfair rating.

Amazing.. My son has a serious illness and on the hottest day of year, on a sunday our AC went out. I made call to Strongbuilt desperate. After about 20 min of no call i was about to call another company and John just called.. asked address and thought he was gonna look at unit, instead he showed up and installed a temp unit in sons room and next day had a new unit fully installed. He knew situation and didnt just react he was amazing. the cost even with sunday night, temp unit, rushed install, busiest week of year was still 30% less then anyone. I wish i had need for more units. I did use them on plumbing for older house check that review next THANKS and GOD BLESS

Used Strong built for AC , see review. Found out they did plumbing. Have a large house we are trying to sale. Had a plumbing company come out, tell me it was 23k to redo all pipes. Charged me 3k to temp fix which didnt pass inspection. SO asked SB, tech came out, proved other company didnt do as said, and fixed leaks for600. are you kidding me? they could have charged me 23k i would have done with them. I am beyond grateful for both AC and Plumbing.. just wow

I contacted Strongbuilt after receiving a quote from another air conditioning contractor to replace two existing AC units on my house that I just purchased. John Schamahorn went over all the different options with me as well as prices and thoroughly explained the differences between lower seer rating/higher seer rating, single speed compressors/variable speed compressors. After hearing all my options, I opted to go with the highest seer rating available because John advised me not only would it dramatically reduce my monthly electric bill, but would also make the house very comfortable and fix the issue I was having on the west side of my house cooling like the rest of the house. I have to admit I was very skeptical about the savings on my electric bill John was telling me I would see after installation. I waited over a month after installation to write a review because I wanted to have accurate feedback to provide. have now had both units installed and running with an interior temperature setting of 74 degrees on a 3,600 square foot house for over a month and my electric bill has dropped from almost $600 in July to under $250 August! . My father used the contractor I got my other quote from and he couldn't be unhappier with the experience. He was not given or explained the different options on systems like I was. In fact, the company told him he would see a minimum 30% decrease in his electric bill and since his installation he has seen an increase! I would highly recommend Strongbuilt and John Schamahorn to anyone looking for a company that is knowledgeable in the AC industry, will do a quality job and not compromise their integrity just to make a sale. There are lots of AC companies to choose from and it can be difficult to decipher which are the good guys, but speaking from my experience John and his team delivered what they said they would and even exceeded my high expectations.
