Description of Work: This was the first time I used them. They had an answering service. They got back to me in ten minutes. They kept their appointment and called first to let me know they were on their way. Reasonably priced, professional and courteous. I was very pleased and they have gained another new customer.

After a weekend phone call, then a return call I returned a call. I indicated that there are will be multiple bids on the contract, not a surprise as its approximately a 5000.00 job. He refused to bid on it based on the fact he did not have this exclusively.
Description of Work: Contractor refused to look at job or bits because I was entertaining multiple bits. He would only take an exclusive from me

Response from Plumbing Solutions Inc
Dear Member, I would like to begin by apologizing for having given you a negative impression of our company. You see, it was not an issue of exclusivity here but rather one of available time. Your tenants had little to no hot water and that sounded to me like a problem that needed prompt attention. Having just returned from vacation, requests for service from our existing clients were numerous and unfortunately, those existing clients were my top priority. Once I found out that you already had a few plumbers ready and willing to help you out, I was very relieved to be able to pass on your request for a price quotation, knowing that you had other options available to you. Again, please accept my apologies, Member. I hope your tenants got their hot water back quickly. Best Regards, Tim Sullivan

During the great flood of 2010, my sump pump stopped working during the day. At the end of the day, I had about 4" of water in my basement. I called Tim that evening and he got back to me within an hour, which was impressive given the backlog of calls he was dealing with. We tried several things via the phone to see if I could get the pump started, but nothing worked. Tim came out the next day and discovered that there was a small piece of wood jammed into the paddles of the pump. He repaired the pump and was able to procure a second pump later in the day, which he was able to install before I got home from work. When I did get home, the basement was dry and has been so since.
Description of Work: Tim repaired a sump pump that had stopped working, and also set up a second pump to deal with a basement floor whose slope caused an uneven distribution of water to the main sump hole.

Overall it went very well from the first call to voicemail and quick return within 24 hrs with an appointment set for estimate/first piece of the work to the last piece of replacing toilet. Very pleased w/the work done. Seemed a little pricey, but plumbing usually is and I'm always looking for ways to save some money, expecially in the past14 months.
Description of Work: Matt arrived in a timely fashion to assess the job and estimate. He did the preliminary work of removing toilet from flange and shaving pipe to fit updated materials. Closed up pipe and left job ready for tile person to do his piece. Matt returned to complete the job, explained what he was doing and cleaned up after. Very polite and professional. Did the work in a timely fashion.

They were great. We had a blockage in our sewer which they were not able to fix but they recommended someone and returned our money which was amazing because we weren't expecting that. The experience was great. I think they were reasonable for what they did. I would use them again if needed.

Response from Plumbing Solutions Inc
Dear Member, I remember that call about the drain stoppage. We believed it to be a simple laundry drain stoppage and when we were done, the washing machine drained successfully and we thought the task was completed. Later on it was discovered that when plumbing upstairs was used it resulted in an overflow through that same laundry drain. This indicated a main sewer stoppage, work which we do not address but we were able to refer you to a company which performs that work. Since our efforts resulted in no benefit to you, we returned your check. Although it was absolutely the fair and right thing to do, I have to say it was also my hope that the gesture would make an impression on you about the integrity of the company you first chose to help you with your plumbing needs. You called us again so I guess the mission was accomplished. It's all about building relationships based on trust. Best Regards, Tim Sullivan, Pres.

Dear Member, Thank you for taking the time to send a report to Angie's List. It is because of members like you that this list is able to help so many people make more informed decisions about which plumber they invite into their homes to keep their plumbing and heating systems operating safely and efficiently. Best Regards, Tim Sullivan, Pres

We had purchased all new appliances several months ago with the intention of installing ourselves - but of course that never happened. After reading about Plumbing Solutions on here and noticing their high rating we gave them a call. They were absolutely great...came on time, worked diligently to get everything done, were very professional and obviously were very skilled and qualified. It's a week later and everything is working great. When the bill arrived for the work it was very reasonable given the high quality and professionalism they displayed. We have definitely found "our plumber"!
Description of Work: Installed new gas range, dishwasher, garbage disposal, and kitchen faucet. Also hooked up the ice maker for the refigerator and took away the old dishwasher.

Response from Plumbing Solutions Inc
Dear Member, I find this report interesting because it reminds me that showing up on time, acting professionally and practicing one's skills honestly and in the best interests of the client are not universal in the marketplace. It is kind of sad, really, that returning a phone call, making an appointment and showing up on time are regarded as unusual when, if you think about it, nothing more than common courtesy is at play here. I think it was Woody Allen who said “99% of life is just showing up”. I guess its true for plumbing businesses as well. Here at Plumbing Solutions we definitely consider ourselves to be a member of a larger community of our satisfied clients and thanks in part to Angie's List, that community is growing. Being part of a community implies certain things and respect for one another is high on the list. Best Regards, Tim Sullivan, Pres

Entire toilet had become loose and started leaking serious amounts of water. I called Plumbing Solutions and they offered to come out the same day. Since I had to work we arranged for a service call the next morning. Two plumbers arrived a bit early the next morning (they called me first to make sure it was ok). They diagnosed the problem within minutes, told me exactly what it would cost, and finished the entire job in under two hours. They left the bathroom cleaner than when they arrived. Good guys; would definitely hire again.
Description of Work: Removed old shattered toilet flange and installed a full replacement flange and new wax gasket.

Response from Plumbing Solutions Inc
Dear Member, Sometimes plumbing repairs are obvious and straightforward but leaks from under a toilet are not usually so. Many times the actual cause of such a leak is not clear until the toilet is disconnected and removed exposing the piping and connections under it. Because of our training and experience we will probably have a good idea of the cause of the leak but it will take actual visual confirmation to be able to verify the suspicions. In other words, the home owner needs to have enough confidence and trust in the plumber to proceed with the work without knowing for sure the eventual outcome. How does that level of trust come about? One way of course is having had a long term relationship with your plumber and we are blessed with many such clients but here that relationship did not exist. Well, I believe Angie's List members are doing such a great job of reporting their experiences that even a new client can display the level of trust and confidence that used to take quite a while to develop. What a valuable contribution that is and it is our hope that we can continue to deliver the kind of service that promotes the positive reports that are so important to the growth of our company. As far as leaving the work area clean, being courteous goes a long way toward making friends. Best Regards, Tim Sullivan, Pres

Came on the day I called, very responsive, explained what he was going to do and made up a request of proposal for me and gave us our options before he started the work. The work was extensive but they replaced the water heater with a 1,500 gallon water tank and also fixed a leak coming from the cooper tubes that we had had for years. In and out within 3 hours and removed old water heater and all materials they had used including the old piping. TJ Sullivan did the work for us.

Plumbing Solutions was and is a great company. They always called me before they got to the house, to know if it was all right for them to be there at that hour. They were very professional. They are always timely, and I am very satisfied with their work. I believe that their price is about average.
Description of Work: I had poor water pressure in my 5 bedroom house. We bought a new water heater from Plumbing Solutions. They removed and disposed of the old one. We also had a leaking pipe in the basement, which they replaced for us. This was done in two days.

I have used him for a long time. My experience with them is that every time you call them, they usually get someone out the same day. They are extremely professional and always do good work. I've never had to call them back. They are friendly; a lot of people in our neighborhood use them and I would recommend them to others.
Description of Work: They replaced my garbage disposal because my sister emptied the litter box in it and when she turned it on it became like concrete. They charge $36 dollars per quarter hour. The work took an hour and a half, a little more than half of that was fetching materials.

I have used this company in the past to also do heating work for me. I have always been pleased with them. My contractor sub-contracted TJ out for this job when we was having our home renovated. I think the choice was wise. I am very happy with the outcome. I am not sure what exactly this particular job cost, but I will say that it was well worth it.

TJ Sullivan has worked for us several times, most recently to install a new water heater. He did the job the same day we called, and provided intelligent advice on which unit to buy, whether we should get an extended warranty, and details on accessories and hookups. There was no mess to clean up after him. I would recommend TJ Sullivan to anyone.

I had difficulty finding the specific brand, type, and color toilet that I wanted. Tim was very helpful over a couple of weeks continuing to search for the toilet. I eventually found one on my own and his company installed it. I was initially given an estimate for a typical installation of $300, the price was twice that. I chose a one piece toilet and did not know in advance that it requires two people for installation. Granted, it was not typical as the flange needed to be replaced, which required additional time. Otherwise I found the workers, Mike and Eric knowledgeable, arrived on time, neat (put down mats and wore shoecovers every time they went in and out of the house) and cleaned up after themselves. They also disposed of the old toilet.
Description of Work: I needed to have my old toilet removed and a new toilet installed. They removed the old toilet and found that the flange needed to be replaced. They were able to remove the old flange without damaging the drain. They then replaced the flange and put in the toilet.
