plumbing, water heater repair
+ 0 moreI highly recommend AG Obrien. They came to fix some plumbing problems we were having and it was fixed rather quickly and the man was so nice and kind. Very nice people to deal with from the minute they answered the phone.

plumbing, chimney caps
+ 0 moreAG O'Brien did a great job for us: we had a leaky pipe in our kitchen drain in a very inaccessible space. We called Chris Adatte and he had a team out to us quickly. Both plumbers on his team were very polite and professional. They were conscientious about cleaning up and mindful about not making a mess on our floor. The job only took a few hours for them to complete (another plumbing service quoted us possibly two days). Chris definitely "under-promised and over-delivered". The price for their services was fair as well. Highly recommend that anyone uses them.

water heater repair
+ -1 moreExcellent communication and coordination with my renters to replace and upgrade the natural gas hot water heater in one of my properties. The service was quick, and hot water was restored with minimal disruption. They noticed that my vent wasn't up to code and replaced it, giving me much peace of mind as a landlord. I'll be working with A.G. O'Brien again.
Description of Work: Replaced hot water heater; upgraded from 40 to 50 gallon.

+ -1 moreNever got a call back.
Description of Work: I called to schedule an estimate on a furnace. Spoke to one secretary a week ago, passed on all the necessary info, and even info by email to call me back to set up an appointment. Didn't hear anything back. I called again on Mon. and talked to another secretary. Never got a call back. It's been almost a week. Very unprofessional. I will not do business with them now.

plumbing, drain cleaning
+ 0 moreHE ONLY BROUGHT A 50' SNAKE! He had no luck fixing the clog either. He then suggested I disassemble some of the piping elsewhere in the house and see if I could get at the clog from there. If that is what needed to be done, I needed a plumber that could do that! Not one who suggests that I do the plumbing!! While I did get a discount from their regular price, I don't think I should have been charged at all, especially since I told them a fifty foot snake was not long enough. I then called Midway. They brought out a much longer snake and it ended up having to go in about 85' to open the drain. They were quick and effective and came with the right tools. GO WITH MIDWAY IF YOU NEED A PLUMBER!!
Description of Work: My kitchen sink was clogged. I had already tried to clean it out and purchased a 50 foot snake to do so, which was not sufficient. I called AG O'Brien and told them I had already tried with a 50 foot snake, to no avail. The guy that came out was very friendly and seemed good to work with, but HE ONLY BROUGHT A 50' SNAKE! He had no luck fixing the clog either.

+ -1 moreThey were a little lower than the company we went with but there were a couple of items that we had a question about. Our only issue was that they had a piece of equipment that wasn't as efficient. Their furnace was a 2-stage and we needed a 3-stage. They were professional and their bid form was complete.

plumbing
+ -1 moreIn a word it was-h***. Causing me lost sleep and a big bill for a problem not solved.
Description of Work: Furnace wouldn't run when it got cold and I call them to see what the problem was. They replaced zome valves and it was then that there was knocking in the pipes loud enough to wake me in the middle of the night. They claimeds my pipes and radiators were hung wrong and I should rip apart my celeings to rehang them. Had the service guy who did the work origionall back 5 times and the person who "solves problems" come to my house after I insisted he could not solve the probelm from sitting behind his desk in an office w/o seeing the situation. the knocking did not stop. They thretened to send me to collections when I didn;t apy the bill of an unsatifactory job. I finally cut my losses, paied teh bill and hired another plumbing and heatign service and the problem was solved in one visit from this new company. O'Brian was not willing to work with me on the bill, and bassically turned the situation back on me. Honestly the redest and most belligerent customer service experience I have ever had in the 25 years in home owning and hiring service people. Oh! But when they found I had a small wine cellar they wanted to sell me wine from a liquor store that the "problem solver" owns. I will never patron O'Brian or the liquor store ever again

+ -1 moreWe were looking to install Tankless water heater. Plumber sent was punctual and courteous, but it was pretty obvious that he had not installed very many (kept calling co-worker to get detailed answers to our questions). We did not end up using because we were looking for someone that had more experience installing these heaters and they were about 30% more expensive than other estimates.

+ -1 moreOverall, no problems to report. He did leave his trash from the job in a pile in the bathroom. Why couldn't he take it with him or place it in our trash can? If there was warranty information on any of the labels that needed to be saved, he never told us. I may use them again, but will consider competitors for future work.
Description of Work: Plumber re-installed our existing toilet after a separate contractor made repairs on the floor.

heating & air conditioning/hvac, plumbing
+ 0 moreCame and did an estimate to replace standard toilet with a high rise toilet. Arrived on time, immediately sent estimate. Arrived on time on scheduled date with all parts. Problems arose with concrete (slab floor) being in the way of having the toile set solidly on the floor. Returned to the shop got a jack-hammer and fixed the floor. Took out the offending concrete, reset the pipe and installed and sealed the toilet.
