I called one day to repair my mother's air conditioner. They came the next morning and fixed it immediately. They weren't cheap but they did the job right away.

Everything went very well. I have no complaints and will use them again. Previously I had another company quote me to fix a leaky faucet and was told it would cost me approximately $4,000 because they would break my sink and hardware in the job. I then called Star and they fixed the leaky faucet by replacing the cartridges without breaking anything! I was also quoted $400-600 by another company to swap out the condensate pump that Star installed today. They charged me $147 total since I obtained the condensate pump myself.
Description of Work: Today the technician installed a new condensate pump for our AprilAire humidifier. He also installed a new filter for the humidifier.

I called Star in the morning and told him I wanted a new water heater (my 28 year old unit had failed). I told him the type of heater I had and he said his man would call when he was on the way. I asked about the price and was quoted $1085 unless there were other problems like a failed shut off valve. The plumber didn't call but he arrived at about 11:30 a.m. He brought a new water heater with him and carried it to the location in the basement. He removed the old heater and carried it out and took it with him. He showed me how to light it if should need to be relit. He was friendly and professional. I have had no problems with the unit nor the quality of installation. I was charged the quoted price. I have used this company for many years and this plumber has been over on a number of occasions. He knows what he is doing and gets to the job without delay. Real plumbers are not embarrassed to charge what they charge and the price is my only complaint. But based on my past experience with other plumber outfits, I think their charges are in line.
Description of Work: Installed new 40 gallon gas water heater.

It went well, except for having to pay that much just to have someone tell me it was the breaker, and that as the unit gets older this may happen more often.
Description of Work: A/C was not cooling. The gentleman checked the inside and outside units and discovered that the problem was a tripped breaker on the compressor. He also confirmed that the coolant was full.

the owner of the company needs to work on his customer service phone skills he's very brusk and short tempered the service man showed up on time and was very nice and professional there were unforseen problems and I didn't get my pipes fixed or my heat turned on, but was still charged $1000 for changing out two cracked pipes and testing the "fitness" of the others
Description of Work: way, way, way over priced for the services provided I have since showed the bill to the 3 companys bidding on finishing the job and all were shocked at what they charged for what they did, overcharged by at least $300

What is most impressive is the timeliness of their response as I am not available much during the day. Both times even for non emergencies, Star scheduled the repairs for the next day, arrived promptly, dd the work quickly and efficiently.
Description of Work: I've used them twice for minor piping repairs in bath and kitchen.

When I called, they had time the same day to perform the work. The service person arrived on time, performed the work and charged exactly what they said they would.
Description of Work: I had our furnace cleaned and checked. Also had our heat pumps serviced and flushed.

I didn’t use them because I got a lower quote from somebody else. The quote was for $4500. They were very thorough and professional. I will consider them in the future.
Description of Work: Star Piping & Heating Co. gave me an estimate, four months ago. The quote was for basement heating.

They had given us an outrageous price. They seemed to be decent, but the price had really thrown me off. I would not use them again in the future.

They were very good. I had used them before and had stopped. The ones I hired after them did not do a good job so I hired Star Piping & Heating Co again. The price is standard.

Outstanding. He arrived in half an hour from the time we called. He looked the furnace over, made adjustments, advised us on its operation, and even helped us clean the furnace filters (while showing us how).
Description of Work: Investigated a lack of heat and "hot" smell when the furnace fan was on "Auto" (vs. "On").

My experience with Star was excellent. The technician was A+ and I was able to pay them with a CC over the phone while I was at work. I will definitely call them again for future needs.
Description of Work: We awoke to a cold house one winter morning and found that our hot water furnace was not lighting. We had no idea how to relight it or if it needed repairs. We found a service call sicker from Star on the furnace and gave them a call. They were extremely friendly and professional, and dispatched someone within the hour. A friend was able to let the technician in for me, as I was at work. The tech called me to explain the problems, give me a price, and to get my authorization for the work.

Description of Work: REPLACED SAFETY VALVE, DRAINED SYSTEM TO REPLACE FLANGE GASKET AFTER CLEANING, BLED RADIATORS, FILLED SYSTEM AND RAN CHECK. HE WAS HERE FOR APPROX 5 HOURS.

THE SERVICE PERSON CALLED THE OFFICE ON HIS WALKIE TALKIE IN MY PRESENCE, AND THE PERSON IN THE OFFICE TOLD HIM TO IGNOR MY QUESTIONING ABOUT THE REPAIR HE ADVISED AND WAS VERY LUDE ABOUT IT! THE REPAIR THEY PERFORMED ACTUALLY REMOVED AND BY-PASSED A SAFETY DEVICE. IN THE 2ND CASE, THE REPAIRMAN ACTUALLY BLOCKED MY VIEW OF HIS REPAIR AND WAS VERY NASTY WHEN I ASKED QUESTIONS. THE ONLY REASON I CALLED THEM AGAIN WAS THAT I FORGOT WHICH COMPANY ACTED THIS WAY. I ALSO MENTIONED THAT I NEEDED BOTH MY FURNACES CLEANED AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD CALL BACK BUT NEVER DID.
Description of Work: REMOVED SAFETY VENT AND OVER-RODE ELECTRICAL SAFETY SWITCH ON 10/29/98 FOR $400 AND ON 10/21/02 THEY INSTALLED A NEW GAS VALVE FOR $300.
