They were professional, thorough, and efficient. I would highly recommend them. When calling to make an appointment, ask for Erica or Rochelle for scheduling.
Description of Work: We purchased the leak detection deal for $179. Mr. Cliff and his colleague visited twice to identify the problem. Then very swiftly resolved the leak.

I called on a Thursday and set up an appointment for a Friday at 9am. On Friday morning, the company called me to let me know that the plumber would be arriving at 9:30. The plumber arrived promptly around 9:30, assessed the issue and then left to get parts. About 30 minutes later, a different plumber showed up at my door. The second plumber reviewed the issue and said he needed to go out to purchase a part. He came back 10 to 15 minutes later and began working. The work took about 15 minutes. Plumber was professional and courteous. I was charged $250 for the work: $175 for labor, $55 for parts (this was for a rubber vacuum seal that I heard the plumber tell HQ that he paid $4 for) and tax. So far, the work has held up. Because I feel grossly overcharged for both parts and labor, if this problem or any other plumbing problem comes up again in my home, I won't be calling this company.

The water was intermittently dripping from the ceiling on the second floor. There was no leak on the upper floors at all. Within a few weeks, the drip moved to another spot and this time, there was water on both the second and third floors. After a few days of tracing the path, it was determined that the roof was leaking. While the plumber made several visits to find the problem, I only had to pay for the initial call. Since the problem was not a plumbing issue, I contacted my roofer and he inspected the roof, patched the problem, and will replace the roof later this summer.
Description of Work: Found a very difficult to locate leak.

I had to call several times for Lewis to give me the quote. He did not call me. Finally I got him on the phone two weeks later. Lewis came in with a super high price for the cost of the service that was unbelievable. The tech he sent was dirty and unprofessional. I was so upset with the service that I refused to pay the estimate charge. Lewis fought me tooth and nail for the $149. He got the money but lost a customer.

This was supposed to be a diagnostic on the heating system, but did not check thermostats. Charged an additional 3% on top of the 4500 for the system to process my credit card. When they turned the system on the upstairs the upstairs heating pipes began to leak. I was told they are not plumbers so the couldn't fix the leak. Mind you it says on the documentation that they have a plumber license. I don't believe I received a heating system. and they certainly did not do a complete diagnostic of the system. No I would not recommend this company.

Response from STANLEY LEWIS PLUMBING & HEATING
Hi (removed member's name) can you please confirm that Stanley Lewis Plumbing did the work at your residence as we have no record of working at the address you have listed in Coram, NY during March 2015. I want to clarify if you have the correct company in this review. Can you provide the Invoice number, first and last name on the account, or job address? Thank you for your assistance with this matter!

They did not bring a few necessary things that a professional company should. Something to remove water from the toilet (I had to give them some Tupperware that we will now throw out) and no rags to clean up. The price was also double what I was quoted on the phone for exactly one for per work. Other companies charge by the hour and they told me the $125 price was for only using the snake (essentially a 15 minute job) whereas because my job was not so simple I got charged $275. Choose a company that charges by the hour regardless of the type of blockage you have. Far fairer and fewer surprises!
Description of Work: Called them to clear a blocked toilet. They came within the time described and got the job done in an hour, after using an auger for 20 minutes they ultimately dismantled the toilet to remove the blockage.

He is not taking from me my desire or knowledge. They guy just tells me that I’m wrong and just performs work on how he felt it should be done. They replaced the pipes with the same size. This is not what we hired them to do. We did not choose to complete the work with this company at that time. I would like to call them back and discuss this with the owner so that I can see if he would do what I have requested.
Description of Work: They were supposed to switch out the pipes for a larger size. We needed greater water flow.

I was told that someone from STANLEY LEWIS PLUMBING & HEATING would call me within two business days. I had written down three times that would work for me and no one ever called me. I finally called them and was told none of the times I had written down would work for that company, so I had to be scheduled on their time. The day they were scheduled, they said they'd be there sometime between 8 and noon. At 11:30, no on had so much as contacted me, so I called them. They said they were right around the corner and would be right there. At 12:00, no one had shown up. I called them once more and told them they had TWENTY minutes. Not twenty-five, not thirty. I had somewhere to be. At 12:30, they were still not there, so I left. They called me at 12:40 saying they had arrived. I let them know I had already left. When I tried to reschedule, they said they couldn't work me in for a month. I have nothing nice to say about this company. They are unprofessional and I wouldn't recommend them.

I had a terrible experience with Stanley Lewis Plumbing and I would never use them again. The front office was completely incompetent and disorganized. They told me that the plumbers would be there between 8am-noon - i got there at 8am and waited for 6 hours before the plumbers started working on the job. The first delay was because they were unable to provide the insurance certificate which my building requires for all contractors. It took them 4 hours that morning just to fax over an insurance certificate, even though they had all of the information the day before to take care of it. The second delay was due to the plumbers showing up without the part required for the job, even after I explicitly called them the day before and told them to bring it. I was very frustrated working with their front office who was completely incompetent to the point of not understanding what an insurance certificate is and not knowing who or where to fax it to, and not understanding or communicating my need for the right parts to the plumbers. Avoid them like the plague.

They've come several times (see above) and always got the job done quickly and with excellent results. I highly recommend them.
Description of Work: I've used Stanley Lewis for two years now, ever since I found them on Angies List. They have repaired leaky faucets, clogged toilets and even snaked the sewer line in the basement of our apartment building. The price is always reasonable, they come when they say they will and have always performed the job very well.

I called to ask if this company installed sewer back flow protectors having just cleaned up from a sewer overflow into my finished basement. When I called to arrange an appointment for an estimate I was told the mechanic could come by immediately and that it was COD. This would be fine however there is no way that at 4pm these guys would jack up the concrete, cut the sewer line, install valve, install valve housing and re-cement the floor. Did they not understand the request? I asked to speak to the mechanic and was denied. This is a very suspect company. Be careful!

I didn't have actual contact with them, my fiance was there when they came, but it sounded like it wasn't a big issue. Someone called me the night before for my cc and said they couldn't have someone come out until they had a cc on file. I called them the next morning and they said it wouldn't be a problem, I could write a check and that's what I did. Other than that everything was fine.

The work was done well. - the leaks were stopped. My issue was with the pricing. $695 - minus $20 coupon - plus tax 8.875% total: 735.00 My employee (the superintendent) was quoted a price for the work. Once the worker returned with supplies. I received a call from the company owner that the price was much much higher and he insisted that no quote was given. I do not believe that my employee would call me with an arbitrary dollar amount that he had not heard from the vendor. It just does not make sense that it would happen that way. I agreed to the work based on the first quote I received. But once the worker returned and I received the call I had very little choice but to accept the higher amount as it was an emergency situation and they would have charged me $$ for just coming out to the site. I am sure this will be disputed however, this was my experience. thank you

Don't waste your time! Call someone else. Someone with a no problem attitude.
Description of Work: I received a call Monday morning at 730. Too early for a business call. The person on the other end seemed to be on the defensive before we even scheduled the appointment. They were talking about a $150 service charge even if the plumber didn't do any work. They also made me nervous because they were saying that some coop buildings won't allow work to be done without proof of insurance. We scheduled the appointment for Tuesday between 1 and 4 pm. They never showed. I called at 5pm and recognized the voice. She tried playing dumb like we never made the appointment. I have a written message on my Angie's list account confirming the date and time. Unbelievable. Poor business practices.

I waited 4 hours for a no-show appointment. The office rescheduled for the following day, so I patiently waited the next day for another 4 hours for ANOTHER no-show. I called to follow-up and they said the plumber would arrive within the hour, but they didn't show for a FEW MORE HOURS. Two guys with bad attitudes finally showed up and simply reversed the shower knob, charged me, and left without barely speaking a word. One hour later, the shower head still leaked. I wasted money and two days off of work and I will never attempt to use Stanley Lewis Plumbing services again.

|I have been struggling to find a good and reasonably priced plumber in Brooklyn and these are the people. Very satisfied.
Description of Work: I used them twice. Once for the Angie's List special which was a leak inspection. By identifying the culprits (some runny toilets) and fixing them, I got my water bill finally down to normal. It had skyrocketed to 5X its normal rate!! Second time was on the coldest day of the year when my boiler's pilot light decided to go out. They came first thing in the morning and replaced a small part for 170.00 and the boiler has been fine.
