I met with Mike Restano and he was friendly and professional. I explained everything I wanted, and with a bunch of caveats. He offered up a few different options and we agreed on a plan of action. I was in a time crunch as I was leaving on a two week vacation and wanted the new boiler in before I left. His crew showed up and in three days got all the work done. They were courteous and clean. They left the place in as good a shape as they found it. The work appears to be fine. The boiler and combined hot water tank has been getting it's workout since November and there have been no problems. I spoke with Mike several times during the whole process and he was always knowledgeable and friendly and I think I got a reasonable deal. Possibly not the cheapest installation, but he was a lot cheaper than another quote I got, and I was happy to pay slightly more to ensure a quality job.
Description of Work: Removed existing boiler and hot water tank. Installed new combined boiler and water heater. Moved location of boiler to a different area of the basement. Installed a new low-profile radiator.

This company was the only one out of several that we called and called us back. We were without heat and they came right away and fixed the problem. The gas pressure on our water heater and the furnace was very low. They discovered a leak in a line in the yard. The gas company worked along side them and commended their work as well. They dug up the yard and fixed the leak. We appreciate their fast detective work. They were very good.
Description of Work: They repaired a leak in the gas line for the water heater and the furnace.

It went well, the first crew tried to fix the old water heater but the connections were shot so in went a new heater. I had them install a catch pan I provided and level the tank as it seemed to be sinking through the floor. Concrete board was put under the pan. New Ball shut off and it worked well. We used the water and the blow off valve would leak. I called them and they came out 2 days later to repair and in stall an expansion tank. Local hardware store said to install 175 PSI pressure regulator, a very bad Idea. Steve was the guy who came the second time and was so easy to do business with. I needed about $3000 of work done on a rental that Restano now has the business.
Description of Work: I had a new water heater and then 2 days later a expansion tank installed.

The serviceman called ahead of time to let us when he was coming for the check up. He also explained everything he did and we will be using him again in a few weeks to repair the leak they spotted on our furnace.
Description of Work: In the spring, he gave our two a/c units their annual check up basically checked all the parts out to make sure it was running properly. Our units are about ten years old, the original units in the house. Also, he pointed out a leak on our furnace that needed to be repaired regardless of what plumbing company fixed it. All this was completed within 45 minutes to an hour.

We got three bids prior to this one. They were all about the same, but they had the most creative way to redoing the system. They hired different contractors for the floor and bedroom. I like that they came out and stuck with their estimate, coming on time and cleaning up.
Description of Work: They did a major plumbing job in my house. They repaired a radiator pipe that serviced two other radiators upstairs, which were embedded in the wall. It took them a couple of weeks to finish the job.

What I liked about Restano is that they came at my beckon call, they seemed to know what they are doing, and they let me know what the cost was upfront before doing any work. I really appreciated that. I can't say exactly how much it was that I paid; it was expensive, but they did good work.

The work was expensive, but they were on time and very service oriented. They did the job when they arrived and cleaned up when they were finished. They fixed the part and the boiler works fine now. The only thing I didn't like was the price.

Very well - we are very pleased. The plumber was professional, clean, and efficient. He was here much longer than expected, but he did not rush - he was thorough. The plumber was also pleasant and took time to explain the work that needed to be done and what he was doing.
Description of Work: We had leaky faucets, showerhead, and toilet. When the plumber got the showerhead off, we saw that the problem was not the showerhead, but the shower water handle. This would require much more repair than we thought.

The installers arrived on time and got right to work. They quickly had our old furnace removed and the new one in place. They installed appropriate ducts and ran pipes for the air conditioner. The A/C install went quickly. The only problem was with the thermostat - the first one they installed was defective. However, they realized the issue right away and called to have a new one delivered. It was here within the hour and they completed the installation in the allotted 2 days. They cleaned up everything very well. We have no complaints.

It went great! I was extremely pleased from start to finish. The gentleman who gave me the estimate never pushed anything on me, but told me what my smartest options were, both in the short and long term. They arrived to start the job on time, and were extremely courteous. It only took them a day and a half to complete the job, and they were professional, efficient, and cleaned up everything. They also answered all of my questions. I would recommend this company highly.

What a pleasure dealing with a company that actually cares about the customer. My mother-in-law, a sprite 86 year old, told me her 26 year old furnace was red-tagged during a pre-winter service. It had a cracked heat exchanger and needed to be replaced. They gave her an estimate which seemed very high. As cold weather was fast approaching, I called several heating companies trying to arrange for a "second opinion" so that the furnace could be replaced. Only one, Restano Heating and Cooling, answered my call and had a sales representative speak to me (the other four told me they had to have someone call me back later - and later never came). The representative told me he could meet me at my mother-in-laws that afternoon to evaluate the furnace. He arrived exactly on time, measured the house for a new furnace, quoted me a price for a Carrier unit and arranged for next day installation all at a price several hundred less than the first quote. The installation was completed as promised.

I bought a new home that had a recently installed top of the line Wallman furnace. These are very expensive. It was installed by Restano. As far as I can tell the instillation was done properly as there was corrosion throughout. They said it was a defect in the product. After I bought the house the ignitor needed to be replaced. Then the internal and external pumps failed. The internal pump was under warranty, but external pump which was only about 2 yrs old was no longer under warranty. They installed the wrong external pump though originally. They put in a 1/8 horse when it should have been a 1/4 horse. After some negotiating they agreed to change the external pump and just charge for parts and not labor. It took about a week for the initial service call and about 2-3 weeks to schedule the repair. They never sent me out the invoice or receipt for the work they have done. I am reluctantly married to them since they installed the furnace, but otherwise I would look elsewhere.

Response from Restano Plumbing Heating & Cooling Inc
WE ARE SORRY THE MEMBER IS UNHAPPY WITH OUR SERVICE BUT WE ARE NOT SURE WHAT HE IS LOOKING FOR FROM OUR COMPANY. WE DID RESPOND TO HIS CALL AND WE REPAIRED A FACTORY DEFECT ON HIS WEIL MCLAIN BOILER AND WE DID NOT CHARGE HIM FOR THE WORK. WE HAVE NO CONTROL OVER A FACTORY DEFECT AS WE DO NOT MANUFACTURE THE SYSTEM (WE INSTALL AND SERVICE THEM). SINCE IT WAS A WARRANTY CALL WE WOULD NOT HAVE INVOICED HIM. WE VALUE ALL OUR CUSTOMERS AND WOULD NOT LIKE TO SEE THEM GO ELSEWHERE, BUT ALL CUSTOMERS HAVE THE RIGHT TO USE ANY DEALER THEY CHOOSE. RESTANO PLUMBING, HEATING & COOLING

We were very pleased with Restano's from our first phone call to their last day of work. Their solution was creative, even though we knew it would be complicated. Mike Restano came out several times to explain things to us, then he came again to consult with his technician, and then twice more to get his guys started and to inspect the final outcome. The workmen were polite, careful, and very skillful. They showed up promptly every day and worked hard. We highly recommend them.
Description of Work: They repaired a very complicated radiator system that burst last winter. The problem was that the broken radiator pipes were embedded in concrete with no basement underneath for access. The radiator loop involved a downstairs living room and our upstairs bedroom. Since the house has historical value, we didn't want exposed heating pipes to go up the wall (of solid stone) from the living room to our bedroom and then have to try to disguise them. They were able to re-route the whole system by using flexible pipe and snaking it through nooks and crannies throughout the house. We also had another radiator (separate loop) that needed repaired.

Mike Restano spent about an hour inspecting my system even though you (or perhaps others who advertised free) said it would only be a free estimate for a complete replacement. I told him I couldn't proceed until I sold my condo, yet he gave me a full explanation. The installers were great, with the one exception that they did not anticipate what information I needed and I didn't know what questions to ask them. I could have avoided calling to see if there was something wrong, if they had told me what to expect. Also, they could only say the building was 33 years old and that improvements would require major damage to new wallpaper, etc. Later, I spoke to Mike who was better able to offer suggestions, which may or may not solve the problem. He spoke against my idea of using a wireless thermostat, because he only had used it with a very few customers and they had gas not electric systems. I admire people who are expert enough to be comfortable saying, "I don't know."

I got 3 estimates & Restano's was the lowest. Since it was early March, they were able to schedule the job within days. Mike Restano, who managed the project, was always pleasant & prompt, & the crew showed up on time & were friendly & efficient (they were especially nice to my dog, who turned out to be impossible to confine anyplace where they didn't need to be). Installing the ductwork was a complicated & messy job. They worked on it full time so it was done as quickly as possible. The outdoor compressor unit was a new model that wasn't available until May. When it was shipped, Restano scheduled a time to install it right away &, again, they showed up when promised & did the job quickly. A few days after the installation the temperature went into the 90s, & the system has worked fine so far.
Description of Work: Installed high-velocity central air conditioning system in a 1930s house that didn't have ductwork.
