Get matched with top water main install, replace or repairers in Green Harbor, MA

"I had plumbing leaks in a couple of places, but the men that did the work went above and beyond by replacing every component involved top to bottom to ensure there would be no leaks for a long time to come. Very satisfied with the quality of work as well as how quickly it was done."

"Keith, his brother, and crew do outstanding work. Did significant plumbing and heating installation for a major renovation. Highly recommend."

"We have had several Sila visits in recent months - all exceptional. VISIT 1: We had old pipes and valves that limited our dishwasher, so we had that replaced. While there, the Sila agent suggested we replace some of the attached lines and managed to streamline our hookups by removing some of the unneeded valves and connections no longer needed. VISIT 2: We similarly had a great visit and instal from David, who did a very beautiful install on our new water heater. He removed the broken unit, improved the connection design, put in improved valves and labelled each with a tag, then tagged other connections through the basement."

"Several projects with Boston Standard Plumbing – all done in ONE WEEK (Dec 11-18) First off, the names: Leo, Jon, Connor, Lilly, CJ, Brendan, and, at the office: Rachel, Micha, Josie (my apologies if I do not give each name correctly). Each and everyone of them embodies the superb qualities of Boston Standard Plumbing. In fact, the word “Standard” may sound like, well, an understatement. Unless one experiences their work from the initial stages all the way through the actual hands-on work, followed by help in all the relevant documentation and filing when it comes to financing and rebates, and, last not least, billing. My projects: replacement of old HVAC system with up to date new Trane system for heating (including humidifier) and cooling (AC); replacement of corroding water heater with a non-corroding one; swift replacement of water main valve during the work on water heater, getting city officials to respond swiftly to shut off and then on again the main on the street; installing permanent drainage of my dehumidifier in the storage space under the stoop, and installing a new pedestal sink in the guest restroom next to it. The location: lower level unit of a Boston South End brownstone built in 1900, renovated in 2005. Leo supervised the entire endeavor competently, always making sure I was completely updated on what was about to happen and how and why. Jon, Connor, and Lilly applied their skills to the HVAC and water heater replacements with professional precision and truly positive energy, always leaving their work site as clean as possible (the HVAC unit is located in the master bedroom). Jon was on top of things when he discovered that the main water valve failed to turn the water on again after installing the new water heater; CJ and Brendan came on the morning after the new HVAC and water heater were in place and working, to take care of the remaining tasks with equally high professional as well as creative skill and setting a superb standard in both. From the office, there was contact throughout and after the proceedings. Financing, rebate filing, processing of payment – each and all of these were handled with a professionalism that is utterly competent, reassuring, and hard to find anywhere else. Last and certainly not least: during each and every interaction, regardless with whom, I felt heard and understood and found myself in the best of hands. The word “standard” in Boston Standard Plumbing may sound like an understatement. It is: their standard in the relationship with the customer, in their professional skill and work ethic, and in the administrative process is of the highest standard. One last thing: as it is winter, Leo suggested to wait with activating the AC until spring (March). At that time, a team member will come by to do the hook-up and to make sure the AC works properly, and to check whether everything that has been done during the week in December is in order. Needless to say that I am simply very happy to have them come to my just before both Christmas and Easter!"

"So Many Problems!! (though they tried hard to resolve them) Do NOT make the mistake we did and let them talk you out of pulling a permit. The work by this contractor should definitely be inspected. MA Design quoted a low price, used cheap (Home Depot grade) materials, and relied on workers with limited English skills. Plumbing and carpentry were problematic, seemingly due to inadequate training for some workers, spotty communication and quality control from supervisors, and some sloppy attention to detail. We should add that our foreman, John L, and the workmen were willing enough to fix problems after we discovered them, though we had to pay for time and materials when we found MA Design’s quality standards to be unacceptable. The end result of the bathroom remodeling seems OK and we hope that no more nasty surprises turn up in the future. The two supervisors are generally courteous and anxious to please, but poor communication with their workers and sometimes with us seemed to be typical for this contractor. Here are specific examples of our problems: PLUMBING 1. The plumber (apparently not licensed) installed the wrong shower controller in the wall, tiled over the wall, then tried to hide this mistake by sticking on the control handle taken from the shower controller we had specified. Of course, the controller did not work properly and we discovered what had happened by poking through the unused shower parts and calling the manufacturer. To correct this error, MA Design had to cut a hole in the plaster wall of our hallway. MA Design did repair the plaster but now we have an additional painting job because of their mistake. 2. We also discovered that their “plumber” tried to attach the tub spigot to flexible PEX tubing rather than to a solid copper pipe anchored to a stud in the wall. The spigot worked loose in just a few days. No qualified plumber would have made such a rookie mistake. Repairing this error also required the hole in our hallway wall. Clearly, no qualified supervisor inspected the plumbing before the tile went up in the shower enclosure. 3. Just 2 months after MA Design wrapped up the work, we found a serious water leak coming from the ceiling below the remodeled bathroom. This ruined the ceiling and of course ruined the paint job we had just completed in the room below the leak. To their credit, the supervisor quickly came out, cut a hole in the ceiling, and replaced a flawed PEX tubing fitting with a quick-apply fitting to stop the leak. MA Design then cut away large sections of water-damaged ceiling in two rooms, let things dry out for a few weeks, and applied mold-kill spray to address the mold that had formed. It seems that a fitting on the PEX tubing was not properly crimped. This reinforced our belief that the MA Design workers doing plumbing on our job were not well qualified and that MA Design did not choose to or did not know how to inspect work adequately. Several weeks later, MA Design eventually had the joint repaired by a licensed plumber and repaired the holes in the ceiling. 4. The shower enclosure tiling was done OK for the most part but we found holes in the grout around some tiles. We suspect that the grout job was substandard for another reason: the grout sealing the tub to the floor is cracking and flaking after only 2 months. CARPENTRY 5. We replaced the bathroom window with a safety glass window but MA Design replaced the prior window trim and window sill with lesser quality trim and no window sill whatsoever. This was a complete mismatch with the rest of the house. MA Design quoted use of “standard” trim. If MA Design’s estimate assumed replacing trim with something so obviously out of place with the rest of the house, this should have been clearly stated in the quote. We ended up paying to rip out their trim and replace with trim that matched the rest of the house. In fact, the lumberyard’s “standard” trim exactly matched the trim elsewhere in the house so we felt that MA Contracting’s use of “standard” to describe their materials was deceptive. 6. They also installed a new window in an adjacent room. They made the exterior windowsill out of a very knotty piece of pine, inviting future rot. Even worse, no drip edge was cut into the underside of the sill, which could lead to water wicking under the sill and getting into the exterior siding. No well qualified carpenter would have made a mistake like that. PAINTING 7. MA Design did very little painting for us, just some primer application after drywall installation. Still, the workman on our job made a rookie mistake. He applied primer to a repaired ceiling with a rough wall roller and then applied primer to the doorway trim with that same roller rather than with a brush or smooth roller. The result: the formerly smooth doorway trim now had a rough, thick layer of paint that looked and felt awful. It took us 2 hours of sanding to restore the doorway trim to a smooth surface. This experience reinforced our general impression that many, if not most, MA Design workmen are not properly skilled or trained for the work they are doing. COORDINATION & COMMUNICATION 8. We agreed at the outset which fixtures were to be bought by MA Design and which by us, but MA Design sometimes bought the wrong items, which resulted in confusion and delays. In many cases, we ended up buying the needed fixtures ourselves just to keep the project moving. 9. On at least 10 days, workers were expected but none showed up and MA Design did not call to inform us of this in advance."

"George and his team were extremely friendly and professional. This is a good group of people. Courteous and thoughtful, they were able to do a complete installation of both systems from scratch in about 6 hours.
The new radon remediation system (Bubble Up) has the added benefit of boosting the fixture pressure in the house to city level or better (60-75psi) as well as completely resolving the pH level of the water.
The cost was slightly lower than the other two quotes we received, partially due to the fact that Absolute offered a "multi-system" discount since two systems were going in at the same time.
If in your service area, I would highly recommend George Doumit of Absolute Water System.
