Description of Work: The plumbers were great. This was my second time hiring them and I've always been happy with there work. This time they changed my water heater. My only problem was that i was told they'd be here between 8 & 12. I got up early for this. They came around 1pm. The receptionist claims she never gave me a time & that conversation never took place because she didn't write it down. As if anyone doesn't ask when to expect the plumber. If this plumber was average I'd never call them again, but they're really good so I will.

Gustafson's service was excellent, from when I called and spoke with the woman to make the appointment to completion of the job. The plumbers arrived in a timely manner. They took the time to answer my questions and explain things, simply. They used the camera and had me look, for myself, to see that the pipes were clear (which I appreciated and made me feel even more relieved than them just telling me). They also patched the sewer pipe where a dehumidifier had been incorrectly connected to and had caused the back-up (previous owner). While they were here, they also looked at 2 other concerns that I had. They never made me feel rushed or like they were being bothered (the plumber that responded the previous week barely talked to me and seemed annoyed by my questions). I'm very pleased with the service, professionalism and responsiveness. Would definitely use again and wish I had called them in the first place.
Description of Work: On 11/23/12, I had a sewer back-up in my basement. I had used another plumber that day (I just called around until I got someone who was available). After his service, I wasn't comfortable with his answer that "it should be fine but may happen again." He said that he would need a camera to ensure the pipes were clear (unsure whether he didn't have a camera or was just too busy that day to do it. At the very least, he fixed the immediate issue). So I searched Angie's List for another plumber to come back to assess the situation (I did not want to risk having sewerage in my basement again). I called Gustafson on a Thursday and they were able to come out the next day.

The quality of the work was excellent and I would hire them again. The installer called in sick the day of the work. I called their office and told them that the toilet and shower had been gutted the previous day as planned and this needed to get done immediately. About an hour later the installer showed up with another plumber. I appreciate the office staff's follow up.
Description of Work: Installed a new tub/shower, toilet and vanity.

Came home to a virtual lake in my back bedroom and utility closet last night around 7:30PM Frantically started calling plumbers that advertised '24/7 emergency service' Roto Rooter said they could squeeze me tomorrow morning. I don't call that emergency service. Gustafson said, and quot;we'll be right out.and quot; Derek showed up 15 minutes later, assessed the situation and immediately put me at ease. Even offered suggestions to save me money on repairing the soggy wall and floor. Stopped the leak and returned back bright and early the next morning to compete the replacement of the damaged boiler parts.Charged me much less than I expected and spent plenty of time making sure everything was right and perfect before leaving.Can't say enough good things about these guys and I will definitely use them again.
Description of Work: Replaced a pressure valve and compression tank on my boiler. Then assessed a separate issue under my kitchen sink

They made an appointment to come between 12 and 4 on Friday. They said repeatedly that they would call when on the way, and if we didn't answer, they would not come out. They also asked for a credit card just to make the appointment. We drove to the apartment and waited there from 12 to 3. At 3, we called to make sure they were coming. At that point we were told that "no one was freed up" so they would not be coming. We asked how to make an appointment that would be prioritized so that we were not stuck waiting again, but the woman handling the phone just said repeatedly that no one had freed up, and they couldn't help that.
Description of Work: We called Gustafson Plumbing on Monday to fix a leaky pipe in an apartment basement. No services were performed because they did not keep the appointment.

Gustafson Plumber Inc. did such a good job that I haven't had any plumbing problems since their last visit several years ago. They immediately responded to my call and came out to my house. They showed up when they said they would and were very professional. I had no problems with them and they knew what they were doing.

The plumber called to ask if he could come earlier than originally scheduled and arrived when he said he would. The faucets were replaced quickly, professionally. The shower problem, however, I was told, would require replacement of the valve or installation of a flow restrictor on the boiler. Both solutions were very expensive and I opted to do nothing at this time. Later, I questioned his explanation of why the valve had to be replaced, that there was no other solution and will be checking into this with the manufacturer Other than that it was a positive experience. I may use them again but the charge for travel time gives me pause.
Description of Work: Replaced vanity faucet and laundry faucets. Also asked to have mixing valve in a newer shower reset, as the water is not hot enough in winter.

On a Friday, this company scheduled an appointment for Monday afternoon. The appointment was confirmed on Monday. At 3 pm on Monday afternoon, they called to reschedule for another day because their "plumbers were busy."

An actual person answered the phone and said they had a truck out and about in our area. They had the person in the truck call us for directions and they were at our house in under an hour from when we had called. The young man was very helpful and professional and had our heat up and running in no time. We will use this company for any future heating issues and will recommend them to friends and family in the Worcester area. Thank you!
Description of Work: Our heat was not working. We had called our oil supplier to come and take a look at the system and they never showed up. We called them on Friday morning and by Friday at 5 pm they were a no show and we still had no heat! We called them a few times but never again were able to talk to a person, We just left messages and finally, we gave up. So, I looked on Angie's list for a local, reliable company with 24 hour service and found Gustafson. We called, they came within the hour and fixed our problem (system needed bleeding due to a faulty valve).

They are okay. I like that they can come out either day or night. The only thing that I have a real problem with is a couple of times they have made mistakes and not fixed the problem. When we have called them to come back out and repair things that they missed they charge me again. I don't think I should be charged again for something they should have fixed right the first time. This is not a common occurrence, but has happened a couple of times.

When I call the phone number I get a person instead of a recording. They show up when they're supposed to show up. They give me pretty exact times, and they are prompt. The plumbers arrive prepared, and the fees are reasonable. When I've had an issue with some of their work they have came back out and resolved it for me.

We had a break on a shower pipe occur on a Saturday. Based on Angie's List recommendations, we called Gustafson Plumbers. They warned me that the price would be time and a half for a Saturday (but I still found the charges reasonable). They arrived less than 2 hours after my call. Bruce Gustafson Jr. took a look at my problem, but had to run to a local hardware store for a part. He returned shortly after with the part and made the repairs. A very nice job in a very short time frame!

This guy is great. He is professional, he is honest and I use him for more than just heating and A/C work. He can do plumbing and just about any kind of contracting work you have. I think highly of him. He is a great guy with a great attitude and he can just do it all. He is the guy I use for anything and everything that I can because he literally is that good. He is dependable and reliable and he does not overcharge me. I know I can count on him.
