I called and reached someone immediately. He said the technician would be out within an hour. Matt arrived and we discussed options, which ranged from replacing all the valves for a significant amount of money, or replaced two that really needed it. He recommended being conservative and we went with only doing two. I was going to get another estimate, but just decided to go with this company, since he seemed quite knowledgeable. I called the main office, and Matt was back the next morning to fix everything. He was great, and came in under budget.
Description of Work: I have a Shaker house with 50 year old plumbing. Some valves in the basement needed to be replaced. Water pressure to some faucets was low. Also one shower drain needed to be snaked.

This is my second experience with Heights Plumbing, and both times the serviceman has arrived earlier than expected (this is a good thing). Matthew quickly identified the problem, told me how much it would cost, went to buy the parts, and then professionally and efficiently solved my problem.
Description of Work: I have an old Shaker home, with irregular plumbing fixtures. The P-trap on my wall-mounted sink ruptured, and I couldn't buy a replacement part. Matthew from Heights Plumbing came out, replaced the old drain line going into the wall, and assembled a working drain system.

I called Heights Plumbing on a Sunday afternoon after having discovered a soaking wet ceiling immediately below a 1st floor half bath. My call was answered promptly by Roger who identified himself as the owner of the company. He told me that he would have a technician at my home at my convenience anytime the following day. The technician arrived at time promised. He correctly diagnosed the source of the problem. I am reasonably handy and, in this case completely misdiagnosed the source of the leak. I am very grateful for the experience of this Hts Plumbing Professional he saved me several hours of work and a far more costly repair.
Description of Work: The plumber correctly diagnosed the reason for my leaky toilet, that by the time it was discovered had discharged water onto the floor and my basement ceiling. He completely rebuilt the toilet including adding a ballcock, supply line, flush valve, flapper, assorted bowl bolts and a seal. As added measure he secured the commode to the floor. It had been previously loose.

I am very happy with the work that was done and certainly will use Heights Plumbing again if needed.
Description of Work: Matt came within one hour of my call and immediately looked at my two problems. One toilet was clogged and he opened it right away and a tub was not draining. He snaked it out twice and it is working great now. A sink in the bathroom that is not draining was unable to be done today. Matt told me what was necessary and gave me some suggestions on a fix myself before he has to tear it all apart to get it fixed.

He was thorough in describing the problem with the bathroom faucet, describing what would need to be done, including describing the amount of wall to be removed in order to remove the original faucet/ shower combination and install a new one. He carefully explained how he would leave the job, noting that he would not repair the wall, as that was beyond the scope of Heights Plumbing. So I knew in advance what the job would look like when finished. Matt was excellent in doing and finishing the job. One uncomfortable note: I offered Roger (the owner) a deposit of $700.00, with the balance to be paid on the completion of the job. He must have thought I was dickering over the price; said he would split the difference - $750.00. I wasn't. After the job was finished, and I inspected it and the clean-up, I sent the remaining $50 to meet the price we had agreed on.
Description of Work: Bathtub/ shower faucet in second floor bathroom was leaking and damaged beyond simple repair. In addition, there was a question about the toilet seal in the bathroom on the first floor. Called Roger to schedule an estimate; Matt was prompt and courteous. He looked at toilet seal, determined that there was no problem.

He was prompt and efficient. The work was done in about 30 minutes and the faucet has been working perfectly fine since. We had actually purchased the new faucet, so the only parts he had to provide were the pipes underneath the sink, so the work may have been a little overpriced. However, I had obtained a previous estimate that was about the same or maybe a little higher. I also asked him a question about the master bathroom faucets that were just tricking water instead of the normal flow, and he advised us on what to do free of charge. We replaced a small part at the mouth of the faucet and the problem is completely fixed.
Description of Work: A kitchen sink faucet that was leaking was replaced.

Price is a very important point of sale for us. The original quote was a little high to begin with and the final bill was above the estimate. With all that being said, we hired them because of their professionalism, punctuality, and flexibility. The owner was kind enough to make accommodations on the billing. Original piping was in poor condition and crumbled at a joint during removal of corroded piece and therefore additional repairs needed to be made, this was the reason for the higher final bill. The crumbling was probably unavoidable. The original plumbing was in admittedly poor condition and would have needed to be repaired eventually. Matt pieced together the repairs properly in less than 3 hours without having to remove the entire stack. The price was a little high for us. After talking to his workman, the owner agreed to make payment arrangements, which I feel is pretty unusual. I feel very confident that the job was done well. Matt was courteous, fast, and professional.
Description of Work: Corroded cast iron vent stack and corresponding joint were cut out and replaced with PVC piping.

Called for an emergency repair (leaking water pipe in ceiling through smoke detector/sprinkler head) on 12/15/2006, at 6.30pm. Reached the answering service, who promised an immediate call back, which never came, this is surprising and disappointing since they advertise 24 hour emergency service.

Matthew was very informative and gave me a whole range of options to clear the blockage, basically a best case scenario to a worse case scenario and everything in between. He spent a good amount of time with me, and there was no cost. Matthew gets an A for everything. The only concerns I have are related to the management of the office. The owner didn't write my phone number down correctly, so I had to call them when they were an hour late getting to my house. The woman who answered the phone was very unprofessional (talking to the owner in the background and I could hear them both), didn't apologize for the delay, etc. I didn't know until Matthew got to my house that he tried to reach me to tell me he was running late, and we figured out that he had the wrong number.
Description of Work: I called to have someone come out to snake out a blocked toilet in the half-bath. I called on a Sunday evening and was surprised that someone answered the phone. I scheduled an appointment for Monday. Matthew (the master plumber) came out and snaked the toilet manually, and it was still blocked. He looked at the pipe under the floor from the basement and said he thought it needed to be cleaned out there since it was obvious the blockage was lower down, probably at the elbow under the basement floor. He referred us to DelBrocco Sewer Cleaning since they manage the heavier duty electric snaking.

The plumber was careful, accommodating, and discussed matters to address the problem. The plumber explained the issues and offered ways to save on ''cost''. All discounts were offered and applied, and there was no pressure in making the decision. The owner re-arranged his work schedule to prioritize my leak to limit the inconvenience. I was very pleased.

Same day service (Friday) to identify the problem. Installed new tank on Monday, by request. Staff plumber offered suggestions separate from the hot water tank which I was troubled by. Care in preventing water splashing while emptying old tank could have been better. I spoke to the owner later about these matters and they were addressed promptly. The care and communication in subsequent service was greatly improved.

Brad showed up on time and was very friendly, looked over the job and came up with a few options, did not try to up-sell or use fear tactics to inflate the cost of the job. He mentioned some other issues I might need to address, but gave an honest evaluation of their severity. I will probably be using them for a much larger job in the future because of how I was treated on this small one.

He arrived on time. Snaked the shower and a sink. Could not figure out how to remove the faucet to repair leaking washer (it had 2 screws)- removed the hot water faucet as well even though it was not leaking. Commented that our hardware was cheap imports (it was not)- could not figure out how to repair them. Told us to buy new faucets. Left a mess on the floor of the shower that he snaked- and also in the sink he could not fix. We paid him for the 2 drains he snaked.

Response from Heights Plumbing Inc
UNFORTUNATELY THIS MAY HAVE BEEN A COMMUNICATION PROBLEM. IT IS NORMAL TO FIX BOTH THE HOT AND COLD SIDES OF A FAUCET FOR MANY REASONS. ONE MAY BE BECAUSE THE HOT COULD BE AFFECTING WHY THE COLD DRIPS OR VICE-VERSA. ANOTHER IS TO SAVE THE CUSTOMER AN OVER $100 DOLLAR REPAIR FEE SOON AFTER TO MAKE A RETURN TRIP TO FIX THE OTHER SIDE OF THE FAUCET, SINCE THEY BOTH FAIL IN, ON OR AROUND THE SAME TIME. CUSTOMER WAS INFORMED OF THIS. AS A COURTESY, TOOK EXTRA TRAVEL TIME AT NO CHARGE TO GO TRY AND IDENTIFY THE STEM SO IT CAN BE REPAIRED OR REPLACED. ITEM WAS NOT AVAILABLE IN PARTS CATALOG OF ALL MAJOR AND MINOR BRANDS AT PROFESSIONAL PLUMBING SUPPLY. OFF STYLES NOT IDENTIFIABLE USUALLY MEANS CHEAPER IMPORT FAUCETS BOUGHT AT LOCAL DISCOUNT BUILDING SUPPLY STORE OR ELSEWHERE. CUSTOMER WAS INFORMED OF THIS. COLD SIDE HANDLE HAD TWO ALLEN SCREWS, ONE IN THE FRONT AND ONE IN BACK ON A LEVER STYLE QUARTER TURN HANDLE. WE HAVE BEEN IN BUSINESS OVER TWENTY YEARS AND NEVER ENCOUNTERED THIS STYLE HANDLE WITH TWO ALLEN SCREWS, ONE IN THE BACK NO LESS WHERE THE HANDLE CANNOT BE TURNED TO SEE IT. CUSTOMER REMOVED COLD SIDE HANDLE THEM-SELVES WHILE WE WERE GONE TO SUPPLY STORE. UPON RETURNING CUSTOMER WAS OBVIOUSLY CONCERNED WITH WORK QUALITY AND QUICKLY IMPLIED TO PUT EVERYTHING BACK TOGETHER AND FINISH QUICK BECAUSE OUR SERVICES WERE NO LONGER NEEDED, NOT GIVING US THE PROPER TIME TO CLEAN UP-IF ANY OTHER MESS WAS STILL THERE OR MISSED. SNAKED TWO DRAINS 25 FEET. ONE IN THE SHOWER STALL WHER
