"This company wasted several weeks of our time without providing a sufficient apology or explanation. They initially scheduled service while asking in a voicemail if I wanted to base the estimate on the detailed specs in my email or if I preferred to have the owner walk through. I followed up within 2 business days to confirm the date at the end of July and mentioned either option would be okay with me, but I wanted to confirm whether my specification was sufficient with the owner as I felt there were some non standard parts involved. I patiently waited and followed up from time to time. This is the full timeline: June 30 at 4:18 p.m.: I called. The owner (Evan) picked up and mentioned the company was finishing up for the day and just taking emergency calls then, while adding that his secretary would follow up with me the following week. I mentioned that I sent an email the same day with a full breakdown of the work. July 6, 1:48 p.m.: The secretary left a voicemail to confirm a July 26 appointment with an arrival time of 8:15 a.m. and sent an email to confirm the scheduled date and time. In the voice mail, I was asked to follow up to see if I wanted an in-person estimate or if an estimate based on my email specs was sufficient. July 10, 11:41 a.m. I called to follow up, but received an automated message indicating the number has calling restrictions that prevented completion of my call. I followed up via email (below). July 11, 2:47 p.m.: I sent a text message to a 978 area code number, which seemed to be the number that the main number forwards to, to confirm receipt of my email while mentioning the automated message issue. July 12, 10:22 a.m. I called to follow up as I did not receive a response to the email. I wanted to make sure they knew I confirmed the date and time, and I wanted to discuss the estimate options. I immediately received a text message back from the 978 area code operated by the secretary, adding that she was on another call. I did not receive a call back that day. July 14, 9:23 p.m. I followed up via text message, asking when would be a good moment to catch up regarding the upcoming work. I received a call back from the secretary at 9:30 a.m. I summarized my July 6 email. The secretary indicated she would get back to me that day after discussing the project with Evan. I did not hear back. ** July 18, 9:54 p.m.: followed up again over email for when the team arrived the following day while providing the above breakdown so they understood my frustration from a customer perspective. July 19, 7:55 p.m.: I received an email from the owner indicating he cancelled the appointment while being sorry that our communication has not met your expectations, which I felt was interesting as the lack of communication would be frustrating to any customer, and his response incorrectly suggested that it was just my expectations at issue. Frankly, when a company commits to a job, they should always follow up. I emailed the owner back right after and asked for clarification, but I never received one. I should note that this electrician has worked for me before. I was overall happy with the service, with some caveats. On a job at my new residence, they installed new outlets as some existing outlets installed by someone else prior had safety concerns. During the install, I noticed that some new outlets were not as eye-level as they were before (this was not an issue with the available leeway around the outlet, as there was some). I asked one of his installers nicely if some could be moved a bit to be eye level, and the owner (Evan) overheard this and announced that this was a safety visit and not a cosmetic one. This did not make sense to me."

"Dale is professional and reliable. After speaking with Dale on the phone about 15 minutes, I knew he was the guy to do my project. He is very knowledgeable, and speaks concisely to his clients. He is a busy fellow due to his high quality work, yet still affords his clients with his service and talent for HVAC bar none. Thank you Dale for installing our new Daikin unit. It works great and has made the air quality in our home ideal!! Diana & Lance"

"Quick response to my request, very knowledgeable. Resolved my issue quickly. Great communication and very personable."

"There is not a category for this project.. a shower head cartridge replacement. The cost on the flat rate for Paul the Plumber $969. This flat rate price is way above anyone else who would perform this job. There were no complications involved but the cartridge had to be picked up from another truck. I have learned from other plumbers with a good reputation that the cost should be around $400 without complications which mine was. "

"Triumph Heating responded on the same day we lost heat after Christmas. They were responsive, professional and reasonably priced. We will definitely be using them again for our HVAC needs!"

"I bought EV first time and was worried about how Tesla level2 charger work works be done and in reasonable price. Pedro quote and work impressed me. I highly recommend him"

"Paul, our service technician, was timely, knowledgeable, and efficient. I can highly recommend Heritage Home service on this account. However I am extremely unhappy with the company's new service plan offered. I will explore other providers for this reason, and may not use Heritage Home Service in the future."

"I hired Merrimack Valley Plumbing to install a boiler in my home, and my experience was overwhelmingly disappointing. While the boiler functions, the installation process and quality of work raised numerous red flags. I want to share my experience to help others make an informed decision when considering this company. Installation Issues Code Violations: The exhaust is less than 3 feet from the gas meter, and the holes drilled in the joists for intake and exhaust are less than 2 inches from the bottom, both of which do not meet code requirements. Improper Venting: Both the exhaust and intake vents are installed too close to the ground (not meeting the 12-inch clearance required for expected snowfall) and are too close to each other (less than the 12-inch separation required). Unsealed Penetration: The hole drilled in the siding was left unsealed, creating a potential entry point for rodents. Condensate Drain Issues: The installed condensate pump is leaking and wasn’t tested. Additionally, rather than a permanent drain installation, they daisy-chained it into a pump for a portable air conditioner. Wiring Errors: The zones for the primary bedroom and second floor were wired backward, causing overheating in both areas. Missing Outdoor Sensor: The outdoor temperature sensor, critical for proper operation, was not installed. No CO Alarm: A carbon monoxide alarm was not installed, which is essential for safety. Unprofessional Workmanship: Trash, including a metal duct pipe, was left in the crawl space near live electrical wires. Process Concerns Permit Delays: The company failed to file permits before starting work. I only discovered this after contacting the town permitting office myself. Mismanagement and Delays: The project stretched far beyond the promised timeline, with repeated excuses about missing parts and limited crew availability, despite prior assurances that the job would be completed in two days. Broken Promises: They claimed a project manager would take measurements in advance to ensure a smooth installation, but no one came. Additionally, they rescheduled initially, promising a larger crew, only to send a single plumber on the first day. Misinformation and Deception Throughout the project, I encountered multiple instances where Merrimack Valley Plumbing provided misleading or false information: - They lied about the dates permits were filed. - They claimed delivery issues caused delays, though they should have anticipated these based on the advance photos provided. - They repeatedly shifted blame rather than taking accountability for the delays and issues. Overall Experience While the boiler itself works, the installation was riddled with code violations, safety oversights, and poor workmanship. Additionally, the company’s lack of transparency and repeated dishonesty made an already frustrating situation worse. I would not recommend Merrimack Valley Plumbing to others. Their lack of professionalism, disregard for safety codes, and failure to take responsibility for their mistakes created an unnecessarily stressful and costly experience."
