They provided a detailed estimate and once contracted, started the design and approval process. Once approved, they came in and politely, carefully, and thoughtfully created their access to the work site. They worked quietly and with great energy every day, always checking in at the start and end of the day to let us know their plan for the day and then what they got done in the day, and what was next. An absolute top-notch professional job, executed by some of the nicest and thoughtful workers I have worked with. I can't grade them highly enough!!

The technicians were on time and very kind and professional. The work required drilling a new hole in the foundation and excavating a trench for a new sewer line. They were careful about minimizing damage to the lawn. They worked fast, but were meticulous about the work performed. I would absolutely use them again.

Michael Perri and Sons were out within a day or two to give me an estimate. A week later they came out, emptied the tank and made the repairs. I was afraid I had a $10,000 problem. I wad delighted with the timely response, quality work and professionalism of Michael Perri and Son.

Michael Perri and Sons were recommended to us by neighbors. We needed our water pipe replaced from the street to the house. A major concern was disturbing a 100 yr old stone wall.The crew worked diligently in wet weather, digging a huge trench,but somehow managing to go under the stone wall. They returned the next day to fill the trench with fresh, dry fill. They did a wonderful job and the price was lower than 3 other companies.

Called Mike Perri, because of reviews on Angie's list, to come out and look at a small sink hole near the side of our house probably caused by a broken sewer pipe. An appointment was made for him to come out to the house. The appointment was kept by someone not from Mike Perri and Sons. The new contractor was explained that Mike Perri was not available, and he would be able to do the work. The contractor did not bring his camera to see the scope of the work, but felt it could be anywhere from $400 to $4000. I was taken aback by the arrival of the new contractor, so I called Mike Perri and Sons, and they explained that they have worked with the new contractor in the past and it would be fine. The men came to work the next day as promised. There were 5 men who worked quickly and dug down about 4 feet under the brick patio. They had to go out about 6 feet. The total job to remove broken pipes and replace broken pipe and replace the bricks took approximately 3 hours. The price was $1995, which I think is excessive. While I think the job was well done, I am uncomfortable with the feeling of and quot;bait and switchand quot; and the inability to give a more accurate estimate because the new contractor was unprepared without his camera. At this point, I cannot recommend Mike Perri and Sons with any great level of confidence.

Response from MICHAEL PERRI & SONS INC
We were very sorry to hear that our customer was not happy with all of our services. The representative Michael Perri and Sons Inc. sent to this particular job is a Master Plumber that is very familar with the Newport area, that being said we felt this particular job would be better served being completed by one of our sub-contractors. I was happy to hear that although there were certain things the customer was unhappy with, she was very satisfied with job that was completed. She did call the office to inform us of the issues she had but was sure to let me know that the workers were professional, provided good work and left the job site repaired and in the same condition it was prior to them doing the work. After our offices spoke with (member name removed), she was assured that the issues at hand would be discussed with Michael Perri and the sub-contractor to hopefully come up with a solution that will work for all parties involved.

The job went well except for the price charged. The service technician was helpful with tips to keep the septic system clean. Again, just didn't like the price charged when I I paid $140.00 less two years ago with a different company.
Description of Work: I called for an appointment to have the septic system pumped out. I promptly received a call back and set up an appointment to have the job done. The company was able to do the job within a couple of days. I was given a couple of prices which seemed to be reasonable. I had the septic pumped out two years ago by a different company, but I went with this company because of the reviews. They were running late that day because of an emergency and they called to say they would be late. The man who came to do the work was personable and knowledgeable. However, the bill was $350.00 minus a $10.00 coupon from Angie's List. I asked why the bill was so much more than I expected to pay and was told that the dumping fees have increased. Two years ago I had the septic pumped for $200.00 so I was very disappointed with the price that I was charged. For this reason, I would not use this company again. I do not hold the service tech responsible for the price charged. He was just doing his job.

I am glad to hear that you were happy with the Service provided by Michael Perri and Sons Inc. Our records indicate that this system is a 1,500 gallon tank and was pumped out in 2009 for $250 (a coupon was not utilized) which is $10 more than what was charged during this appointment. Which shows no price change in two years. Our customers are always our first priority and we work hard to keep our prices affordable. We hope we can service your system again in the future.

They gave the price over the phone and when they come out they changed the price. They quoted $245 and it was gonig to be almost twice as much. I argued with them about that and then finally gave them an additional $55. I had told them I had two tanks. The guy who did the work did a really good jobs.

I am very happy that my technicians did a great job, but I am sorry that there was a price descrepancy quoted to you over the phone. The price quoted over the phone seems to have been a price for a 1,000 gallon tank and upon completion of pumping the tank was 2,250 gallons, more than double the amount of waste which increases the cost for disposal. Thank you for this input as I will share it with the office staff to help with training procedues.

they were ready to start in a few days, but problems with permit applications delayed their start. after permits were in hand, they started within a few days. the job itself went smoothly, quickly, and professionally. they are a family-run business and were a pleasure to deal with.

I have to say that I was impressed with Michael Perri and Sons at first. I had called them at 8:00pm and expected to leave a message on their voicemail, but someone actually answered the call. We setup a time for someone to come to my home to look at a sinkhole created by an abandoned cesspool. I wanted them to assess it and have it filled in. I was told on the phone that it would be no problem and that the company has done this type of work before. They were supposed to be here on Saturday between 8:00 and 11:00am. At 11:01, I called them because no one had shown up. The woman who answered the phone gave a quick reply saying that they had nothing scheduled for me. I was pretty sure this was the same person I spoke with originally. She told me that the woman who probably took my call had left the company. I decided to give them a second chance. I set something up for Monday morning at 9:30am. Because of the inconvenience, I had to reschedule an appointment at work. I got a call Monday morning at about 8:30, saying that they would not be coming to my home because it was too far. Warwick to Barrington might take 30 minutes. I guess 30 minutes is too far. They also gave me a few names of other companies. I was very disappointed in their service. They knew the address from the start and instead of wasting my time, I wish they had the courtesy to tell me when I called to schedule and reschedule.

I am so sorry to hear you had such a bad experience with Michael Perri and Sons Inc. After reviewing your comments we went back into our records and realized this transpired during a change of staff in the office and the person you were dealing with was not completely trained.

I found them through Angie's List. If I call and leave a message, they respond within a matter of minutes. If I need somebody like I did yesterday because my septic system is apparently filled up with me no having any electric for 4 days, they came out within a few hours and pumped me out. They have always been responsive to my call, so I have been using them. They show up about when they say they will show up. They seem to do a pretty complete job of pumping out my tanks. I have never replaced my tanks because they are relatively stable over the last few years.

Pump out went great--technician was professional and did a more thorough job than previous contractor. Pricing was also lower than previous contractor. A different technician arrived first to eval the need for replacing one of the systems. He mistakenly ID'd the system as a tank instead of a galley based on the hatch appearance (he didn't open the hatch) and said there was no need to replace it. The tech who did the pump out spotted the error and put me in touch w/the evaluating tech, who then provided an assessment and cost estimate. Although the evaluating tech made a mistake, I give him credit for being honest and erring on the side of not trying to sell me something. Having had people try to sell me stuff I don't need, I always find it refreshing to have someone tell me I don't need to pay him for something when he has the advantage of expertise and could use it against me.

They do a fine job. I have a complicated system, since I live near the water. They know enough about it that they came come out and pump it out for me. They are prompt, and they do a good job. They have been pumping out my system for about four or five years. I'm very happy with them. The price is good, but it isn't great. They send people out pretty quick. They are usually here within a few minutes of when they say they are going to be here.
