"10 year old system, so worried about big expense. Mike of Plumbing Innovators pulled off a messy valve, installed a new one, and provided a spare for me to use if/when it clogged again. Mike took the time to explain life span of some well water components. Higher these folks with a high degree of confidence in their honesty & integrity. I have used them exclusively for the past five years."

"I came home from work to find our 40-gallon water heater was not working (it was working that morning). The pilot was out and I could not get it re-lit (I do know how to light a pilot) After checking a number of companies on Angie's List, I contacted DB's Plumbing and Drain. Although it was almost 6pm, a very nice person answered the phone and I explained my dilemma. I was told they could send someone that night but would have to charge an after-hours rate. I was reasonably certain what was wrong would not be a simple fix like re-lighting a pilot so scheduled a visit for the following morning between 10 am and 12 noon. Michael D arrived shortly after 10 am. He was very courteous, polite and professional. Before entering my home, he donned a pair of shoe covers which was kept on as long as he was in the house. He diagnosed the problem as being a failed main burner system. As the water heater was 14-years-old, I weighed the cost of replacing just the main burner system on such an old unit against replacing the unit itself. I opted for the water heater replacement. Michael setup the old unit to drain while he went to retrieve the new one from their warehouse which took him about 45 minutes. Upon his return, he removed the old unit and cleaned up the area. He then cut back the existing copper lines to eliminate the numerous soldered couplings from the previous homeowner's repairs. He installed new copper pipes including a new quarter turn shut-off valve. A catch pan was placed and the water heater setup in it. Up reconnecting the gas line, he installed a sediment trap or drip leg (it did not have one previously) which catches sediment sometimes present in natural gas. After bringing the system online, Michael checked the gas line connections for leaks using a detection monitor. The installation was clean and neat and it is obvious Michael is conscientious about his work. Always interested in how things in my home work, Michael was very gracious in answering my questions regarding the installation. I am very happy with the install.and would like to thank Michael for his professionalism and the education."

"Dan and his team at American Plumbing, Inc did a great job replacing our water main pipe. I sent a quote request Saturday afternoon. Within minutes I got a call from Dan saying he could come Sunday morning for on-site review. Within a hour of visit I received a very reasonable quote. Crew came 9am Tuesday and water was back on by noon. Great communication, service, price and warranty. You canâ t go wrong with American Plumbing, Inc if you need your water main repaired or replaced!"

"Had someone come out for a new water heater quote, and just so happened to have one start leaking as they showed up. The tech swiftly (nice) quoted us (with the best price we received out of 5 quotes) and started working immediately. He walked us through the steps, stayed until he was comfortable with the result, and was extremely professional throughout the whole process. Would refer to them again for any plumbing needs."

"We called DoneRite after the water heater replacement company fiddled with the Town’s water supply end and somehow caused a blockage that shut off water supply coming into our house. Willis and his assistant arrived promptly and were confident in their assessment of the situation and their proposed solution. They were courteous in their interactions and also said that if their solution did not work then they would not charge us. The Town had informed us the previous day that they should be contacted first to come and shut off the Town end of the supply for any repair work. Willis was respectful of this request from us and waited patiently for half an hour for the Town to send their people. Willis suggested a replacement for our main water valve (which was very old and stuck), and also got our water supply back quickly. They also ensured that they had our new water heater turned on and running before leaving. We will not hesitate to contact Willis for any of our plumbing needs."

"I’m quite happy with the results of our AC unit install. There was some miss-communication within the company that caused some delays, but our AC replacement installation was really difficult in having to go thru the roof inti a tight space. Once the techs realized what the nature of the job was, they did an epic job. I had 4 or 5 business previously that didn't even offer a bid for this job. ARS beat the only other two quotes offered. I recommend them highly."
