Contractor did a very professional job. He accepted the job, when other contractors either didn't want to waste their time with it, or wanted us to wait 6 months or more for them to do the work, and charged a fraction of the fee all the other contractors wanted to charge for the job. Great guy, and we will definitely use him in the future.
Description of Work: Installed an air conditioner through house wall.

Mr. Brink came out on a Sunday and assessed the problem and was able to get the water back up and running. He also fix an adjustment on the toilet, which was causing the initial problem. I also needed to replace a connection on the water pump. Mr. Brink ordered the parts, and he and he and his employee came back on Monday, at time arranged and completed the work in less then an hour. Excellent.
Description of Work: I had no water coming out of faucets,( and at the time unbeknown to be a toilet that was running constantly), which was the root of why the water pressure and low water, had stopped the water from coming through.

Mr Brink was able to schedule the repair out just a couple days from when the problem was i identified - i had not been able to actually find the leak, but he identified it as a cracked seal, was able to repair it in a short time, and no problems sense. i've been pleased with his work.

It was 4 PM on a Friday night. My husband was replacing the wax ring on a basement commode, when suddenly a pipe protruding from the wall broke off in his hands, spraying him and the entire bathroom with a shower of cold, clean (thank goodness) water. We quickly turned off the main water supply (since the specific turn offs leading to that bathroom wouldn't BUDGE!) and got onto Angie's list. Called the first "all A-rated" plumber/handyman, and, lucky for us, that turned out to be Darrell. He had just finished up a long week's work, and although he had never had any dealings with us previously, agreed to rescue us from a waterless week-end. ( Remember it was late Friday, PLUS he lives in Endicott and we are located up in Chenango Bridge.) He arrived, smiling and friendly, within the hour, expertly sized up and resolved the situation, and was soon finished, much to our relief and gratitude. As he left, we chatted about our families and got to know one another a bit. We waved as he drove away, and almost had the urge to ask, "Who was that masked man?", the way the townsfolk always did after being rescued by the Lone Ranger. His 40-someodd years of experience certainly paid off for us, and we have already asked him to return to help us with other things around the house. He really knows what he's doing. We feel so grateful to have found someone who would put himself out to help strangers in need, even ON a Friday night.
Description of Work: Sweated a new tread end pipe onto a broken one, re-attached the turn-off valve (we had bought a new one at Lowe's but he said we should return it because it wasn't needed), and re-seated a commode onto a new wax ring.

The provider smelled very strongly of cigarette smoke and his overall appearance was untidy. He provided estimates quickly without really assessing each job that needed to be done. Overall the cost was too high and I was told there might be additional cost if he found something unexpected. He told me the shut off under the sink needed to be replaced, but it was new. I didn't really trust this guy.
Description of Work: I did not hire this provider. He was too expensive for the work that needed to be done.

Response from Darrell Brink Plumbing & Htg
I don't normally respond but this person has raised my hackles. I do smoke but never in a cust. home. I may have looked untidy but i do my own work and i get dirty my customers do not mind because they know i do quality work and leave my jobs clean. i probably was in a dirty basement before coming out to look at this job. If you want to have someone in a suit or tie to come to to your home than you are calling the wrong guy. pricing is what it is i am more than fair small jobs are easy for me to est. i have been doing this for over 42 yrs. I do not put on a big show to get the job. when i reached under the sink to test the valves it was crunchy if i do not replace as part of the job and i will have to go back for a leak and the cust. will want me to do this for free. as far as work that can not be seen behind walls/over cielings/underfloors no one can see thru these things. these type of customers are becoming to frequent on angies list so i think i will remove myself from here. i have over 3,000 cust in my data base that appreciate me and my work and are not expecting me to work for min. wage and look like a runway model they understand i am a tradesman and i dont put on a marketing show just to rip folks off.

Description of Work: I've emailed Darrell a request for quote for a sump pump installation Oct. 7th, called him several times to request his quote and today he told me he had already sent the estimate. No estimate/quote received. I would have given other plumbing work if I had just received a quote from him. Very disappointed.

The repairs were completed very quickly and the work was performed carefully to insure that the leak was properly repaired. The company responded to my call within 2 hrs. I liked the fact the the contractor has a large supply of parts to eliminate trips for missing repair parts. Hrs charged were very fair. Will definitely use again.
Description of Work: Repaired heating system leak.
He and his assistants worked very quickly and efficiently. I have had no problem with their work. I liked Mr. Brink - he was straightforward. The work was costly - but it made my home much more comfortable.
Description of Work: Installed central air conditioning and separate Mitsubishi heating-air con units in attic rooms

We are in a process of buying a house and we needed to know whether we need to replace the breaker box and Brink Electricity sent someone right away even though we didn't own the house which I was very impressed by. And it was clear that they were going to do quality work even though we haven't bought the house when we hired them. I cannot speak of their work but I can say that they responded in a timely way. They came out and did the bid for free. I appreciate it and I thought that they were too friendly and understanding of our situation.

I have called him back for a small leak in the system and he hasn't responded yet but otherwise his work was pretty good. It took him a day to get here, he couldn't respond right away. My pump had stopped working so I didn't have water. He seemed to know what he was doing and he did get it up and running in one day. But he did leave a small leak on the inside of the house, just a drippy thing and I haven't been able to get him to come back and fix it. They seemed fairly knowledgeable of what they were doing and I think the install went pretty well. I thought their price was a little bit high.
Description of Work: Darrell Brink Plumbing & Htg put in a new pump and tank for the well water system. It was a pretty major work.

It went very well. I was pleased that he was able to come out the very next day. He advised me as to what steps to take going forward to keep from happening in the future. They were great guys. Very easy to deal with and very friendly. I will certainly refer my friends and family to them.
Description of Work: He re-routed my air conditioner to another circuit so it wouldn't keep tripping the circuit breaker.

Darrell is very responsive. He came out and gave an estimate the same day I called him. The extimate was resonable so I asked him to do the job. He came back the following day and completed it in a few hours. He and his guys were professional, pleasant and neat. All in all, a positive experience.
Description of Work: Darrell and his team replaced 3 toilets and also performed some general handy work such as fixing a closet door and installing some brackets.
