 + -1 moreTrumbull charges a sewer usage fee based on water used regardless of whether or not the water goes into the sewer system. They permit installing a separate non-taxed water meter for irrigation systems. It will take a few years to pay for itself but we decided to install a 2nd meter. We were quoted $500 by 3Ts Irrigation to install the new meter. When we gave them the go ahead they raised the price to $1000. We reminded them of their $500 quote and they reluctantly agree to the original price but they did not show up for the scheduled installation work. When we called to find out what the problem was they rescheduled because they were very busy. Again they did not show up and now they did not return multiple phone calls and voice mail messages. After 2-3 months of call and messages we gave up. We spoke to at least 6 other potential contractors. Most were not interested in the job. One quoted several thousand dollars but still told me he really was not interested. Ideal was responsive and quoted what turned out to be a fair price. He showed up on time and did the job professionally. He ran into problems during the work but continued to finish the job and did not ask for more money. They did a great job. Aquarion had no problem working with Ideal and Aquarion without question approved the installation.
Description of Work: Installed a 2nd water meter to service our irrigation system.

Description of Work: We had a water main leak in our front yard. They found my water line (under at least 2 feet of snow) by pushing a metal wire through the pipe. They then used a metal detector to find the wire and trace the route of the pipe. Then they pumped gas into the line and used a gas detector to find the water leak. Then used a jack hammer to dig up the spot (because the ground was frozen). Then dug down, by hand, 7 feet to find and repair the leaking pipe. This method kept me from having to dig up my entire front yard.

Description of Work: I hired Ideal Plumbing to repair a broken outdoor water pipe. Ideal completed the job in a timely manner, but, for whatever reason, water continued to leak out of the ground. Our water company sent a crew redo the job, and we have had no problem since. Ideal was supposed to return to fill in a hole in the yard and reseed the grass, but did not do so despite repeated calls to return. It has been two months. Insurance covered all charges.

 + -1 moreIf you have a leak from your water main or any major plumbing job, this company is a pleasure to work with. There fees are reasonable. They are professional and prompt. I had a busted water main that I was not covered for. Aquarion (the water company) recommended Lorenzo from Ideal Plumbing. No other local contractor could would take the job. He and is plumbers worked in the snow and through frozen ground and stopped the leak. Lorenzo negotiated with Aquarion to give me a credit for lost water during the repair process. I was surprised at how little the repair cost. I have since called Lorenzo for another small plumbing job in my house and again was satisfied with the professionalism and workmanship. This company has my highest rating.
Description of Work: Location of leak under bridge in driveway. Tracing of route of pipes. Insertion of gas to detect site of leak. Digging 3 small holes in driveway in snow to search for leak. Digging larger hole in 1' of snow in winter to replace plastic pipe leaking with metal pipe. Very difficult work because ground was frozen, snow was on the ground, the driveway is over wetlands (stream) and the route of the pipes were not available. Several plumbers worked for 2 weeks, most of the day.
