Response from Ray The Plumber
Dear [member name removed], We very much appreciate you complimenting us on our “good work” FIVE YEARS after servicing you by replacing your water heater as well as moving your spigot back in April, 2010. We must have left a very good impression on you for you to respond so many years later, so thank you for taking the time to let us know how much you liked our work. We were quite surprised however to see that you were unhappy with the price of the job when it is our company policy to ALWAYS quote the price of the job before completing any work. In addition, you signed two of our invoices stating you acknowledged satisfactory completion of our work. If at any time you were unhappy with our quoted pricing before we started our work, you could have simply told us no, that you would not wish us to service you at this time, and we would have been on our way. It is truly unfair to think you would have us go ahead with the job at the quoted price, and then post a review FIVE YEARS later, complementing our company for good work, work which you asked us to do for you at the quoted price and then telling us only afterward that our pricing was in your estimation high. We service hundreds of customers a day, supplying a fully stocked truck with competent and friendly technicians who are constantly lauded for their skill and talent. This is not an inexpensive endeavor, but we feel it is the level of service our customers deserve. There will always be a range of pricing in the plumbing trade, but we choose to answer our calls with a live person, not return your call on our answering machine three days later. We hope you can understand that this commitment to excellence isn’t accomplished by cutting corners. It would be greatly appreciated if you would amend your review to reflect the quality of the service you were given and the level of pricing you agreed to. And of course we are always here to discuss any concerns you have about your job, even FIVE YEARS later.

Description of Work: I called and left a message. They called back within 30 minutes and scheduled a call that day around 3:00. I received another call when Keith Greco the service tech. was on his way. Our bathroom sink was backing up. In the process of putting a wire through the pipe he broke into the kitchen line.The piping under our sink was a mess. He explained that he could repair both, which he proceeded to do in about 1 1/2 hours. He explained everthing he did and told us the cost before beginning. Keith was very pleasant, friendly, knowledgeable. He suggested a product to keep our lines clear. I knew the product and plan to use it.

Description of Work: My Main was clogged. The service person did not correctly diagnose the problem therefore it was not fixed. The I called to report that the problem was not corrected and the representative wanted to put me off until the next day. When I asked to speak with the owner I could hear him shouting rude comments in the background. The representative on the telephone apologized for his behavior. I would never use this company again.

Response from Ray The Plumber
Member...you are funny. Also funny how you omitted your address purposely too. I wouldn't want my neighbors to know either, if a plumber visited my home two times and kept removing syringes!!!! We came to your home at 21 Griffin Drive in Mt. Sinai on November 23, 2012 and charged you $299.95 to snake out your main sewer line to street (about 80'). We cleared the main line which was clogged with needles and syringes! You blamed a new boyfriend and told my technician that. On 11/30/2012 you called again and AGAIN we came to you...Mike removed about 15-20 syringes again and even though you declined to purchase an extended warranty on the first visit, WE DID NOT CHARGE YOU! I don't know why, and no one in my office can figure out why, you say I or someone was rude in the backround?...your review is very strange, and without any merit.

EXCELLENT! An associate of Ray's showed up at my home on the day requested and within the time span promised. He was fast, replacing the entire workings of both toilets and replacing the cartridge on my shower faucet, which included a trip to the plumbing store for my "out of the ordinary" shower cartridge, was extremely courteous and friendly and most importantly, he was an exceptionally nice man and my toilets and shower now work like charms. Having been on a recent streak of hiring very unreliable and not-so-nice contractors, I was expecting the same from Ray's, just out of habit. I am glad to report that I was pleasantly surprised by the work done by Ray's. This contractor would get an A++ rating if possible.
Description of Work: I have 1.5 baths in my home; both toilets were in dire need of maintenance as they were very old, constantly needed handle wiggling to stop from running continuously and one toilet, a low volume model, required an average of 4 to 5 flushes for even little to zero items in it to be flushed. I also had a shower that was dripping. I try to do many repairs myself on my home but plumbing was not one I do well at all so I needed a professional.

Description of Work: The hot water in my house was not running through my pipes due to a failed value that blocks water from running into my hot water heater if the sensor detects water. I called "Ray The Plumber" and was answered by an answering service (during normal business hours) where I was asked my problem. After explaining the situation, I was told someone would respond to me. I NEVER was called back by "Ray The Plumber". I have used his services once before and was impressed enough to try again. The company has recently expanded and in my opinion has lost the personal communication that customers rely on. A simple call telling me that they could not do the job would have been enough. I don't know if the service failed to pass off the message or that I just wasn't called back...but as a customer/consumer...Ray gets a big FAT "F".

Ray the Plumber is very honest, competent, and reliable. He arrives when stated. He is very reasonable in his pricing compared to other plumbers.
Description of Work: I had a 40 gallon indirect hot water heater installed. It is an oil type which heats on demand. Upon my decision, the old unit was not removed as it was a coiled unit. It took 6 hours to complete the job.
