Description of Work: The major service was replacement of the old shut-offs to allow for toilet repairs. Brad was experienced in solving problems of bathroom plumbing in old apartment buildings, and for me that is a most important qualification. He also replaced the bathroom sink faucet and showerhead, both of which I had purchased. At my request he also provided information on the potential for washing machine installation, a challenging prospect in a third-floor condo. I was pleased with his work, and I expect to call on him again, so I purchased the company's service plan.

Description of Work: I hired Boston Plumbing to install a natural gas hook-up for a grill. They were excellent. They came in, discussed my options, knew all the regulations about what was actually legal, and installed the line quickly. Will definitely hire them again.

Description of Work: Nick was prompt, courteous and got right to work fixing the issue I had with my sink. While he was there he talked me through the value of a service contract as they are a full service company (I had mentioned some issues I'd had previously). Overall it was the best money I have spent on my condo in the past three years. My hot water heater went out last night (5/12) and Andrew came out under my new service plan and was able to fix the issue within half an hour or so. The new service plan has almost paid for itself as the cost for the emergency call was 50% last night. | |Although I'm a very new client, I'm thrilled with the work they've performed so far. Best money ever spent.

Description of Work: They fixed a leak in the sink. We were told by another plumber that the sink and faucet had to be replaced and the estimate was $450. Boston Standard diagnosed the problem in 15 minutes. It was a broken hose from the dishwasher to the sink. They fixed it in 10 minutes. The coupon covered the price.

Response from Boston Standard Company
Dear (member name removed), My most sincere apologies for our team leaving you feeling less than satisfied with our services last Spring. As I mentioned in our phone discussion earlier this week, we never intended to leave you feeling like you could not get a response and working with you on your bathroom (whether remodel or repair) was always the intention. There was a miscommunication between our technician and the carpenter regarding next steps and I fully apologize to you for that. If there is anything that we can do to make this right, or in the future, please do not hesitate to reach out to me directly. Kind Regards, Laura Wood Boston Standard Company 617-288-2911

Description of Work: Fixed a leak under the kitchen sink. Based on the location of the leak, and the state of the existing plumbing, they had to cut out the back of the cabinet and replace the pipe into the wall. They did a great job, were very professional, cleaned up nicely and were quick. My only complaint is that they are expensive. They charge by the job, not by the hour. The original estimate for this job was several hours, and they ended up finishing in less than an hour. I asked if they would reduce the price of the job, since it was much easier than they expected. They agreed to do this, and did reduce the original quoted price substantially, however if you calculate the hourly rate for the final bill, it was still rather high.

Dear member, Thank you for your feedback on your experience with our team. As you can imagine, reviews are an important part of our business. The Big Deal was $99 for $200 worth of work, it did not include any specific amount of time for the work to be completed in. My apologies if that was a confusion when you purchased the Big Deal. I have reviewed your service call, quote and spoke with the technician. You were provided with two quotes to complete the work in your home and, yes, one did include the option to purchase a service plan. The second quote did not include a service plan and it is your choice to decide which option is best for your needs. You never have to purchase a service plan- it is always an option that we offer for your consideration. I am sorry if the price was more than you expected, as you noted, the work included the installation of two items, as well a pipe-work for them to work correctly, carpentry to fit your vanity in the bathroom space and replacement of your shutoff valves. We aim to please all customers and are sorry that we were not able to meet your expectations. Regards, Laura Wood Boston Standard Company

Response from Boston Standard Company
Dear member, Thank you for taking the time to provide our company with a review of the service that we provided you; reviews are a critical part of our business. I am happy to hear that our technician was able to resolve your plumbing issue. I spoke with our technician regarding your service call to better understand the details. He communicated to me that upon review of the job he determined that there was no way to complete the work without damaging the tiles and only after discussing the tile issues with you, and obtaining your authorization, did he proceed with the work. Like you, I would not want to have any holes in my home that were unnecessary, but in this case it was unfortunately required in order to complete the work appropriately. If we can provide a recommendation of someone to fix the tiles or assist you with this issue any further please do not hesitate to let me know. Warm Regards, Laura Wood Boston Standard Company 617-288-2911

Dear Member, I apologize that were were not able to maintain the appointment that we had scheduled with you related to your Big Deal purchase. On rare occasions the technicians are held up on appointments scheduled earlier in the day due to emergent situations such as large water leaks or burst pipes. Unfortunately this was the case on the day of your appointment and we were forced to contact you the morning of your appointment to reschedule. We try to avoid rescheduling at all costs and apologize for the inconvenience that is caused you. Regards, Laura Wood Boston Standard Plumbing & Heating

Description of Work: I purchased this deal on 9/4/2012. I proceded to call to order my one year supply of BioClean. During this call I spoke to the female secretary or receptionist that was taking orders. I was told they did not deliver that I would have to come in to pick up my order. I told her I did not drive to Boston or to the Boston area. I then inquired about having the product shipped to me. The shipping costs were more that the actual product. I then told her I would see if I could find a way to get to their location and if I could not I would apply for a refund. When purchasing this deal, there wasn't any information pertaining to shipping costs or that they did not deliver. I would not have purchased this deal if I knew in advance I would have to drive to Dorchester to pick it up. This company is in Dorchester, MA and I live in Billerica.
