Description of Work: After moving into new home, dismayed to find hot water not working. Varsity diagnosed, offered solutions/options and worked diligently to fix (replaced coil in boiler). Technicians were professional & polite. I'd call Varsity again if I have an issue they can address.

The repairman arrived approximately on time and surveyed the problems. He called the office regarding the hot water tank. I was shocked that an ordinary hot water tank would cost that much (1650 for the tank and 230 for the other plumbing problems plus 167 in tax). I could have gone tankless for that amount. This had better be a great water tank for that kind of money and it better last a long time. He had to wait for another man to bring the tank and help carry the old one out and help put the new one in as they are quite heavy even when empty. The whole job took about 4 hours. They cleaned up all debris from the job. I called Varisty because when we first moved into the house 12 years ago the furnace blew and we had a flood down the basement at 8PM and I remember Walter came right away , was here till almost midnight and arrived the next morning to start working on fixing the furnace. They also installed my original water heater 12 years ago. So I called on them again. I didn't think that prices would have gone up that much in that amount of time and people who I tell are shocked at what I paid for a hot water tank. Maybe I was ripped off, maybe not. I don't know because I had an emergency situation on my hands and called a company that I had used in the past and trusted.
Description of Work: replaced hot water heater and repaired kitchen pee trap and upstairs bathroom faucet.

I like this company. The last time I didn't spend anything because it was covered by their warranty. They were very good and I didn't have any problems. They had originally installed the furnace. Their pricing is moderate. I will continue using them for my heating.

Expansion tank of heating system went bad and flooded basement leaving gas heating system and hot water system under water. After water removal, home was without heat and hot water and needed emergent repair. Varsity Plumbing gave very high estimates for repairing or replacing the system. As comparison, a much larger company that we eventually hired for the job estimated the same repair (including gas valve) at $925 (about 40% less) and actually did the replacement of the system using comparable or better components as Varsity's estimate for $5200 (about 35% less). On a positive note, Varsity came for the service call estimate on a Saturday evening (we called on Saturday morning).
Description of Work: Charged $97.71 for service call. Gave estimate of $1562 for repair of heating system (including gas valve). Gave estimate of $8223 for replacement of heating system.

Technician (Steve) arrived on a Friday night around 9pm. The technician was professional and competent and fixed the problem. He replaced the pilot flame sensor and clean and adjusted the pilot. I was charged $189.95 for a diagnostic fee due to the emergency nature of the call. In addition, I was charged $278.33 for the parts and labor for a total of $508 including tax. I have had this work done a year and a half ago on a non-emergency basis by another company and it only cost $100.
Description of Work: Emergency service to fix my gas burner where the pilot light would not stay lit.

THEY TRIED TO CHEAT ME FROM THE START. QUOTED ME $940 TO REPAIR FURNACE ON THE PRETEXT THAT THEY HAD TO ORDER A PART FOR $785. SAID I NEEDED TO GIVE THEM A $500 DEPOSIT. SEEMED HIGH BECAUSE I WANTED TO GET HEAT GOING ASAP. I DID SOME CHECKING AND PART COST LESS THAN $100. TURNS OUT THAT WASN'T THE PROBLEM ANYWAY. THEY GOT THE FURNACE WORKING BRIEFLY. BUT WHEN I CALLED THEM TO TELL THEM THE FURNACE WAS STILL NOT WORKING (AND ALREADY PAID $850) THEY SAID IT WOULD COST AN ADDITIONAL $900 TO FIX. THAT IS WHEN I WENT SOMEWHERE ELSE.
Description of Work: ULTIMATELY PROVIDED NO SERVICE AT ALL. HAD TO HIRE SOMEONE ELSE TO DO REPAIR FOR A FRACTION OF WHAT I PAID THEM.
