Sr. Tech listened to and glanced at sytem, said everything is fine. I wouldn't waste your money. The owner said that their is virtually no service needs for my forced air propane furnace. I wish he had told me BEFORE I ordered this service. It took about 20 minutes. The tech only vacuumed out the furnace, which I could have done in 5 minutes. The owner told me that he would reimburse me for the "service" if I was unhappy - I never heard from him again, he didn't reimburse me.

All in all, I'm very happy with the responsiveness, neatness and the workmanship I received: When I called at around 7 to 7:30 am, I got the answering service who was pleasant and she took down the necessary information. I'd say that within an hours time, the owner called me back took down some more information and gave me some options as to what type of WH options I could go with should the WH have to be replaced. He also emailed me some WH literature. He said that by 10 AM he could have someone out to check the WH and sure enough, by 10 AM, Tom, the plumbing mechanic was there. Tom first checked if anything simple was causing the leak (i.e. check the pipes and connections leading to the water heater). Unfortunately, it was in fact a faulty WH tank. So he then sent the serial numbers of the old WH to the office to check if it was still under warranty. Unfortunately, it was out of warranty (it was 10 years old). So he consulted with the office and very shortly after that, I had an emailed estimate to consider of the various options - tank-less vs tank. While considering the options, Tom offered to drain the 75 gal WH. I asked what that alone would cost should I not go with their outfit. He said it was complementary. After I decided to go with their outfit, they were able to install it that same day. It arrived within an hour or two and it was pouring rain! Now for the worrisome part... how are they going to not make a mess or drop it getting the old one out and the new one in with 2 flights of stairs to contend with... a full set of basement stars and stairs leading up to the deck off my kitchen. Tom laid out card board in the house and they were able to get it out and in without making any mess. Both Tom and the delivery person also wore shoe covers. Finally, once the new WH was down the basement, Tom plumbed it in and did a nice neat job! Since the WH was not a simple drop in, he had to do some adjustments to the PEX water lines; the copper leading up to the PEX; the 4" PVC ventilation pipe and the gas line to the WH. He also had the right tools to work with my PEX (Brand: Wirsbo) so he was able to use the fittings designed for that type of PEX so it looks like a pro job.
Description of Work: A leaking 75 gallon water heater (WH) needed to be replaced. The night before calling, I noticed a small damp spot around the base of the water heater in the basement. The next morning, there was a pool of water around the heater. So after looking at the reviews, I decided to call D Rhode Heating & Plumbing. They had lots of good reviews and those that were not as favorable, the owner had responded to and had a reasonable explanation.

Dan was out on a job out of town, but he called us very early the next morning and came right away. He found two separate issues and took care off them. He was competent, very pleasant, and we felt he was honest. I'll gladly hire him again.
Description of Work: On the first really frigid day of late October, our heating boiler shut down at 10pm. We had used Dan's company in the morning of the same day, to get an annual boiler checkup, so we called his answering service and put in an emergency request.

Luckily while Mike was here I was told that in addition to the cleaning I needed to replace the old wires that lead to the emergency shut-off switch on the wall. I'm so glad he found this additional problem when he was here, otherwise he may have had to come back again when it stopped working entirely. After he left all seemed well. And when I started hearing odd sounds coming from the furnace each night, I began to worry something else was wrong and possibly dangerous. When I called I requested the owner, Dan try to stop by to see what it could be. The woman on the phone was so gracious and kind, I didn't feel foolish asking for a re-visit and she made sure to pass the message on to him. He showed up a day or so later even though this is a VERY busy time of year for them and after checking my furnace again he assured me it was fine and that any sounds I might be hearing could simply be the fan revving up or slowing down. Nothing to worry about. So, when he left I felt so much better and safer and he didn't charge me for this extra visit knowing that it was all part of their original offer to check my furnace. Plus, as the kind and decent person he is, he also fixed a little problem I was having with the stopper in my tub! I will be sure to call on them the next time I need service due to their incredible kindness, honesty and reliability!! Thank you, Dan, Mike and Sue!!

The beginning of the work seemed great but as I am become more knowledgeable about sump-pump and valve and plumbing work, it appear that they use the cheapest material which caused me to spent more money and hire another company to fix D. Rhode's work.

Response from D Rohde Home Services
I am sorry to hear about the lack of quality of the material that we used. We normally purchase all of our material from local plumbing and heating supply houses in the hope that they stock the most durable material at a competitive price. I am not sure about how it was deciphered that the material was the cheapest? We apologize if there was a misunderstanding with the work that was done. There appeared to be a budget that was to be abided by and we did our best to work within those confines. We will re-examine our material purchases moving forward to see if there are more acceptable means in which we can provide a high level of service with the material we have at our disposal. Again, we apologize if the job was not done to your satisfaction and we will work diligently to remedy this possible issue in the future. Thank you for the review.

The work was efficient, and these guys showed up on time, quietly did their work and at every step of the way, inspired confidence in what was a significant job. As long as I live in New Hamburg, Dan Rhode is the plumber to whom I will turn for ALL my heating & hot water needs. You can't go wrong this this company and I give it my highest rating, something I rarely do.
Description of Work: Dan Rhode installed a new propane heating system to replace my ancient oil burner. I cannot tell you how terrific he and his staff were in every respect. I have an 1860 home, and had found 19th Century cast-iron radiators to replace the ineffectual baseboard units on the first floor of my house. Where most plumbers would have tried to steer me away from the cast iron, Dan didn't bat an eye and installed these wonderful radiators. They have made an enormous difference both in effective heating of my house, and in the aesthetics of matching the period of the rooms to the period of the radiators. The new unit is spectacular, and I now have 19th Century radiators that I can control on my iPhone. The best of both worlds

Dan came out to review the job and I was given a prompt estimate. The estimate was the middle price of the three estimates that I got, but was by far the most thorough. Dan explained everything fully and gave me lots of options. The job involved installing a new central air conditioning system, including all duct work. They gave me a start date and the workers were always on time and very professional. They were very respectful of my home and cleaned up well at the end of each day. The installation went very smoothly and I am thrilled with the work. I would highly recommend them.

What a great experience from first estimate to completed job! All appointments were on time and every employee was friendly and helpful. I had an estimate a few hours after the first visit. It was the lowest of 3 companies and had options. Dan was very patient and answered all my questions. I never felt pressured into purchasing one system over another. The install was very clean and on time. Very highly recommended!

I've used this company before and I am still impressed by how great they are. They were quick to make an appointment and came on time. Good listeners for having the problems explained to them and knew immediately what would need to be done to fix our problems and concerns. They did a very thorough job. Our AC unit had not been serviced in while (we had only bought the house less than 2 years ago). Cleaned it up, sealed the leaks and got it running so efficiently that we wondered if it was even turned on because it ran so silently! The cold air seems colder and our upstairs bedrooms are more than comfortable in this 90 degree heat. They also gave our boiler a once over and alerted us to get some things fixed before the fall - which we will with their company!

This could have been handled better by our staff. On this day, we were extremely busy with emergency repairs that took much longer than anticipated. We did our best to re-prioritize our schedule, however, in the end, we did not keep in touch with you well enough. It can be hectic at times trying to maneuver a schedule with varying degrees of emergencies. Unfortunately, in this case, we were unable to make it in a timely fashion. We regret the inability to come out quicker and hope that we can provide great service for you in the future. We have done work for you in the past, and hope that went better and will show that, when conditions are less hectic, we are a top tier repair company with many satisfied customers.

I called to see if I can get someone to give me an estimate on a possible clogged pipe. I told him what happened this morning and told him that I do have another appointment later that day with another plumber. I want to get the best deal and wanted to get a couple of quotes. This F'n guy said that he didn't think it would be worth the trip for his guy. I expressed to him that this is something that needs to be done today. He proceeded to make excuses. As a new home owner, I want to make sure that I deal with a professional who will help me take care of my investment. I don't need someone who is a coward, scared of competition. The funny thing is that his appointment would have been 1st and I would most likely have gone with him. Whatever! The lack of professionalism! You just lost a customer and I hope others read this and chose the next plumber.

Typically we do not give free estimates for minor repairs. It did not seem feasible for us to send a technician down to this home, over an hour drive, when there was another plumber from another company coming moments after we would have been there. We are happy to give estimates on larger jobs, as it is very prudent to get several quotes to make sure you are getting exactly what you want. Unfortunately, it is not our policy to send a technician out for a quote on a smaller repair such as a clogged pipe, we can give those kind of estimates over the phone. We apologize for not making the trip down, it appeared that you had someone already taking care of the problem. It seems like you found someone that was closer. We are glad to hear that it worked out for you.
