 + -1 moreWe hired Ray to install a lawn meter (a second water meter for your home that is used to calculate the amount of water you use for watering your lawn and other outside uses -- this water is cheaper to use since they do not calculate sewage usage with it so your water bills are less). Ray did the job in a few hours and we were very happy with the work. He needed to do a little running around with the city in order to get a permit for the job and that was helpful to me. The city inspector had no complaints about Ray's work -- approved the installation in less than two minutes. Ray also replaced an old faucet outside the house. Both jobs turned out great. Ray does very good work, is reliable and works quickly. I would highly recommend Ray to anyone who is looking for a dependable, affordable plumber. We will definitely call Ray Coughlan the next time we need any kind of plumbing work.
Description of Work: Ray installed new lawn meter and replaced outside faucet.

 + -1 moreRay came by at 9:30 in the morning and was finished by 1:30. He is the utmost professional. He did all of this work for the price of 1000.00. The new water heaters do not come with feet so he brought a concrete block/slab and elevated the water heater. He also took away the old one. His work is of the highest quality and I highly recommend him.
Description of Work: Replaced a water heater, Replaced a garbage disposal with a regular drain, Unfroze faucet and unclogged the drain, Replaced a toilet flapper.

 + 0 moreI have used him in the past. He initially proposed to repair the sinks to help save money however we found it just was not repairable - the sink was quite old and not repairable. He handled problems well that arouse during the process. He was very kind and accomodating to my schedule at a time when my husband was ill. He gave good advice at trying to keep the cost low for me.
Description of Work: He installed a new faucet in my kitchen and a garbage disposal. He installed a new bathroom sink with a vanity as well. The cost included the parts and labor.

 + -1 moreEverything went excellent! As mentioned, we will continue to use Ray for all our plumbing needs.
Description of Work: This is not the first time that we have needed Ray's services. He is an excellent plumber. This was just a small repair, but we have had him do bigger jobs in the past. He is reliable, responsive, and most importantly an honest guy. We have had great experiences with him and would not hesitate to use him again.

plumbing, water heater repair
 + 0 morePlease see above about the most recent work. Then, as with other times I've called him, Ray was very responsive, arranging to come quickly when that was warranted (including on weekends), and showing up when he said he would. He has great integrity -- he has several times said certain work I asked about wasn't needed (such as installing a sump pump) and/or suggested trying a small fix for something and only moved on to a bigger, costier repair/ replacement if that proved necessary. He has charged quite reasonable prices. His work has been solid, and has stood up well over time. We haven't any experience with large plumbing projects but at least for the sorts of small/ medium jobs we've done, we highly recommend Ray as reliable, trustworthy, careful, competent, and responsive.
Description of Work: Ray Coughlan has done a number of different plumbing jobs for us on 6-7 occasions over the past 12 years in our 80 year old single family house. Among them -- he has replaced leaking pipe that went from our kitchen sink to the main drain. He installed our washer and dryer 12 hrs ago, including rigging a long vent to the basement window, which has stood up well. He fixed a leaking bathroom sink drain. He replaced our water heater when it failed after its warranty expired. He fixed a leaky kitchen faucet, and assured us that it didn't need replacement anytime soon. The very first job he did for us was identify and fix the source of water in our basement a couple of weeks after we bought our house -- a leak because of deteriorated packing in a radiator we had just turned on upstairs -- so he also replaced the packing in the other radiators, and we have had no such problems ever since. The most recent small job (Nov. '11, listed above) was an effort to clear a blockage in the basement drain, but after trying, he found it was out of reach of his snake, so he charged only a token amount (I don't remember the amount exactly, but believe it was under $60). He recommended a drain company that could do the job, and then actually contacted them for me -- and also gave me good advice about how to discuss the needed work with them to avoid being charged for unnecessary services.

plumbing, water heater repair
 + 0 moreOverall it went well. He was prompt and available. He was professional and respectful, and did the job without much mess. Two things I wish had gone differently: 1) the water heater we replaced was sitting up on a piece of concrete block, which Ray removed. The new heater now sits on the basement floor, which puts it in the way of any water that should come through our basement due to flooding. 2) Given the rushed nature of the job (i.e. we needed the heater replaced ASAP) we were not able to shop around for the most efficient water heater. Overall though, I would not hesitate to call Ray back if needed.
Description of Work: Ray replaced our water heater on short notice. Our water heater expired and he was able to be there the next day to replace it. He brought a heater and installed it in good time.

Description of Work: He replaced a leaking shower head, and nob handle. He suggested not replacing the inside of the shower head because he would have to go in through the linen closet and break the wall it was the only outside of the shower head that was leaking.

 + -1 moreOur upstairs bathroom was circa 1950. Ray did all the buying, installed a special tub with spout in the middle so two people can use it. When the shower valve leaked he took care of everything including getting the new one shipped to us. The sink was also a special order made from a piece of granite and dropped in with all nickel hardware. For the brand new 1/2 bath he ran the pipe under the house to the sink and toilet. He has fixed our furnace a couple times. Always returns calls, comes when he says he will (same day when the heat was down), cleans up and is totally pleasant.
Description of Work: Ray did the all the plumbing for two new bathrooms - one full, one half. He has also fixed our furnace and done other plumbing jobs.
