Outstanding job! Parts were on-hand/in the company van so the job was completed fast. Also educated me on my new home's outside hose faucets and checked one out for me to ensure it was in good working order...really went above and beyond what most people would have done.

I had a plumber at my house within an hour of my call. I thought the water softener was leaking but the plumber observed it was actually a pipe leading to the water softener that had a small pin hole leak. He replaced the pipe and completed the job in about 30 minutes or so. He was courteous, professional and saved my day. Could not ask for better service.

I already rated Vailes last month but get the notice to finish the review. As I had said they snaked through the main drainage line to clear blockage and ONE week later water was again backing up in the tub and toilet. Their contract said NO warranty on drain cleaning and the service man said if I had trouble again, to call Roto Rotor so I spent $507 dollars for nothing. I then called another plumber and he found the blockage and dug down at the footage he found it and found a bad place in the pipe and repaired it and it hasn't been a problem again for several weeks now. Vailes called to see if they could discuss my review, but for what? It had then been fixed and there receipt says NO WARRANTY. I never called them back as I didn't see any reason to have any more dealings with them and I never will.

See above.
Description of Work: Installed new a/c and gas furnace. Very cordial before the purchase and when selling an extended service contract. When problems in the unit occured the service was not as cordial. Remaining service technicial told us that everyone else left the company because of the way it was run. We haven't had contact since last contract expired in fall of 2011 so I expect this is true.

Thought all was great but it only lasted one week. Water is backing up in the tub and toilet again and of course, there is No guarantee. So that was $507.00 dollars for nothing.. And they were very clear about there being NO guarantee and if I had problems in a week or a month I should call Roto Rooter. That seems like a heck of a way to run a company after paying $507.00 for the work. I only went to them because they were the top of the list on Angie's List but I sure won't use them again.
Description of Work: Removed the toilet and snaked through the main drainage line to unclog blockage in the line.

I would tell somebody to get a quote from them but expect it to be high. I just picked them out of the phone book because they were local. They were double the cost of other companies in the area. Other quotes I got were for $149 and they wanted $259 for the same work. They were charging me a flat rate fee and then wanted to add on to it.

We would appreciate the opportunity to discuss this. It is very rare that we get low grades. Often times other companies are not providing as comprehensive cleanings, services and warranties that we provide.

I have dealt with them before for other plumbing issues, and they are excellent. When they fix something, it is done right the first time, for example, they fixed my garbage disposal I don’t know how long ago, but I have never had a problem with it again. I went with them because they are all-in-one, right from electric, to HVAC, to plumbing, they do it all. The have a really professional service staff which is well groomed, they don’t come in all dirty, and they don’t use bad language. I definitely would recommend them to other Angie’s List members. The owner is just a kid, and the people who work for him are accountable, he is on it, not just lip service. Because of the quality of their service, the price was fair.

Serviceman was very helpful in identifying the problem and requesting that the owner of Vailles allow him to make this improvement in our system. I want to thank him and the company for assisting us with the solution to this problem.
Description of Work: Vailles had installed a new boiler in my home approximately two years ago which has worked perfectly except for the fact that air would get in the lines and have to be bleed each year at the begining of the heating season.This year when I called to say we were having the same problem Vailles sent a repairman who put an "air scoop" on the pipe to eliminate the problem and did not charge me a penny. I think this was extremely professional and fair and will certainly recommend him to anyone that I can.
