His son was with him and his son is the one who did the job. It worked for a few days then it stopped. I had to keep lighting the pilot light. I called them and they came back out. They came out and tried to fix it. When he left, he said to call him if it stopped working. I called immediately and he said he would get back to me. All together it has been a month and I just got a call today. He asked if we were still having problems, we said yes. He said he would make a few calls and he would call back, but hasnt 6 hours later. He just isn't very professional and is inconsiderate. He shows up in the morning unannounced when I was still in my night clothes. It was uncomfortable. This has been over a month and the issue is still not fixed and communication is poor.
Description of Work: He put an igniter in.

I paid Sears to have the old tank removed. The installer was not prepared to change the size of the exhaust pipe at the time of installation, which they indicated was required by building code. Since they needed go come back ( said they would call soon to schedule ) they said they would remove the tank at the same time. I have yet to hear from them.
Description of Work: They were subcontracted by Sears to install my new hot water heater.

Called them up the day before mentioning my water heater was 16 years old and needed replacing. He was able to schedule an appointment the following day to have it replaced. I was impressed how quickly he was able to find a water heater and schedule an appointment the following day. He recommended Bradford White for a water heater. I figured I would go with his suggestion because my Bradford White lasted 16 years. I was hoping he would show me more what to do for maintenance but overall I was happy with the experience. He was able to install the new water heater in about one hour.
Description of Work: Had water heater replaced.

Again I was totally pleased with the work performed.
Description of Work: Upon waking on Easter Sunday morning. I was confronted with the fact that my hot water tank had become inoperative. Thankfully I had the use of the shower downstairs in my rental apartment to sustain me until something could be done about my tank. On Monday morning I called Sears about obtaining a new water tank, and purchase was made. Wednesday morning O'connell Brothers appeared at my door after a few confrimation calls to assure that I would be home for the installation. I must say that I was totally pleased with their professionalism, and the courteous behavior. They went to work, and finished the job in less than (2) hours maximum. I would indeed call them in the future if I ever have the need for service. Leo F. Ryan
