Very well. Blits treated this as a priority. I was very happy with the speed of repair and the quality of the work performed. They returned first thing the morning after the installation to fine-tune the temperature setting and to ensure everything was working properly.

Great. They were fast and neat both times. They installed the water line in July 2018 and replaced our water tank in August. Their prices are reasonable, and the appointments went as expected. I plan to use them for future projects.

I was recommended to this company by a friend. For the past four years, when my sprinkler was running and the various zones changed, I heard a loud banging noise in the pipes. I had several sprinkler people try to address the problem by various means but they were unable to correct the loud pipe banging issue. I even tried to contact a few plumbers who felt this was more of a sprinkler issue than a plumbing problem so they didn't want to come by to have a look. I finally decided to call Blit's and they sent over Manuel. He analyzed the problem and examined the pipes in my basement and within minutes knew exactly what the issue was. He immediately measured the house water pressure and told me it was too high. He installed a new pressure reducing valve which immediately lowered the pressure. Problem solved! He also replaced the main shut off valve. Manual was a real professional and experienced plumber and truly knew what to do. I am so happy I selected Blit's. The office personnel at Blit's were also a pleasure to deal with and I also value the fact that there was always someone available in the office to answer the phone. I highly recommend Blit's. 5 Stars!!

He takes care of all of our heating, air conditioning and plumbing. They've always been punctual, quick on call backs when I need something. They are excellent. Since I bought this house they have been my provider. Usually, if I call them, and I have a leak, or flooding in the basement, and they can't find the problem in my home, or if they don't do any work, they don't charge anything. No service fee, when you are a regular customer. One time my washing machine, when it was really cold, flooded the laundry room. It turned out to be a frozen drain pipe and they came and looked around and since they didn't have to do anything, they didn't charge me.

I was referred to Blits by a colleague. They were at my house within 3 hrs of my call on one of the coldest days of the year. Although I needed a part which they did not have with them, they left and returned within 1 hr to finish the job. I found them very courteous and professional from Lucy, the receptionist to Roberto the technician. They resolved the issue and cleaned my furnace as well and cleaning up afterward. They were also very reasonably priced. I would definitely use them again and recommend them to my friends..

When I called the company on Monday, the owner answered and before I could even say a few words he interrupted and gruffly demanded by telephone number. I asked if I could first tell what I needed and the timeline before he could come. He listened and then said, very gruffly "Now can I have your phone number?" I gave him my number and he said he could come the next day. I said I work and asked if he could come at 6 pm or 8 am and he said no. He said he could come the next morning by 9 am and said 9:30 the latest and they would call first. He said the cost would be $160. I needed the work done because the hot water valve was leaking even with it turned off so I said ok, I could go into work late. I gave him my address and he was familiar with the neighborhood. I waited the next morning and at 10 am no one had arrived yet so I called their office. The woman in the office was very nice but she told me the crew scheduled for my house was still in Plainview, about 30 minutes away and would probably be to me in about one hour. She was going to call and see their timeline. I explained what the owner had said the day before and she said would call me back. 30 minutes later she still had not called back. I called again and she said they would be here soon. Someone arrived at 11:45. Two hours late. The man that came could barely speak English but he tried very hard to tell me I needed new hoses also. The hoses were new so I know I didn't need them. He replaced the valves and asked me for something to clean up the water. I put some old towels down. He had walked through the water and left water all the way up the basement steps. When he got to the top I was asking him to please remove his wet boots before going across my carpet but he walked on the carpet as I was asking him. I assume he did so because his English was so bad. I am fairly certain he was not a licensed plumber. The job did get done but customer service was terrible, the owner's attitude was terrible, they were two hours late with no calls to me and no apologies and the service person could not speak English. I had picked them based on the great reviews on Angie's list but had a different experience than most of the reviews. I would not use them again.

All went well. The plumbers were professional and clean. They arrived on time.Tthey knew what they were doing. They were very eficient. They todl me upfront that the service call woudl be $150 minimum. for this area of Long Ilsand I felt that was reasonable. They were not pushy and very nice. I called the office this morning for a reccommendation for a cess pool company . The office staff is very pleasant and professional as well,

We agreed on his doing repair work for 4/9/15 between noon and 4PM. He called me at 4:30PM and said he could not make it today, but, he could come the next day. I told him not to bother that I would get someone who would be reliable. This is the worst service (none) after waiting at home and he doesn't even call earlier to advise that he would not be able to come as promised.

Response from BLITS PLUMBING & HEATING, INC.
This review is completely true and the member is 100% right though we do believe an "F" is a bit harsh as [member name removed] never had our plumbers at his house to do any work but he definitely was inconvenienced by us. We know that it is very frustrating when a service professional makes an appointment and then cancels. Unfortunately it is the nature of this business that despite our best efforts, it sometimes still does happen. We try very hard to keep all our appointments and that is why we usually require at least a 4 hour window to give us leeway when things take longer than expected and emergencies develop. Unfortunately the day we scheduled Mr. Fehlker's appointment on did not go smoothly on our end and this was in no way any fault of his. We do try very hard not to cancel on people so we still had hope up until the time Blits called that we would be able to send a crew and keep the appointment. The day fell apart on our end with some other scheduled appointments taking longer than expected and a true emergency call from a client that required immediate attention. The time just got away from us. When we realized [member name removed] appointment window had already passed and it had become too late to take care of what he was looking to have done, we called and cancelled. If we realized earlier that we were going to have to cancel, we would have called earlier but we understand saying that does not help lessen a client's annoyance over such a situation when it happens and they are the inconvenienced party. The best we can do is apologize and offer another appointment as soon as possible when the client can reschedule for. We realize we lost a potential good client and we are always sorry when that happens and for disappointing people, [member name removed] included. Upon request, we will gladly call clients before heading out to an appointment so as long as we can reach them, they can meet us and do not have to wait at home through the whole appointment window. [member name removed], if you have occasion to read this response, we are truly sorry and wish you better luck in the future.
