Best Businesses in New York

Repaired hot water pipe leaks. Prompt response, friendly professional service and fair price. Highly recommend.

Combat plumbing came thru once again!! We woke up to a leak underneath my bathroom sink this morning. I was able to book an appointment with Combat plumbing immediately. The service was prompt, courteous, and thorough. This is the second time I have trusted Combat plumbing for my plumbing needs. They have done excellent work on both occasions! Thanks again Combat Plumbing!!

If I can leave no stars I would.  I'm not one to leave reviews but I feel I should look out for others beware.  The owner Kevin seems to be a very arrogant guy.  For a business owner I expected someone with a little more professionalism tried getting him to do a job a couple months back still haven't heard back from him.  Don't waste your time, terrible service.

Top notch. If you have a problem ask for Chris to fix it. He's awesome! Can't say enough about their quick response and total professionalism.

I have been working with Frank Alessi for years and he is an excellent plumber. He's reliable, knowledgeable, and honest.

It's nice to know I have a plumber I can count on.

I had left two calls over a two-week period and got no return call. I Called back a third time got somebody on the phone and asked them to service a furnace they installed for me.  She told me they don't service that furnace anymore with a bad attitude, and hung up on me

I used Huron plumbing for the first Time in June, and then had to use them again in July for the same reason.  The plumber didn't fix the issue in June and when I had him go out in July, he didn't even contact me to let me know what was wrong ( it was my rental property), I received a large bill a week later.  there was no communication, i feel they were very unprofessional.  Also the plumber ended up ruining clothing of my tenants when he was replacing the pipes, and nothing was offered for he damages.

This was my twelfth estimate I received for replacing my broken furnace, and it was the FIRST that did NOT provide a free estimate.  Furthermore the fact they charge for an estimate was not disclosed when I called.  Given that the other eleven estimates were free I would believe it is an industry standard and when an estimate is not free it would make sense to disclose that prior to getting the estimate.  

I immediately called the office and was told that they do not in fact provide free estimates, and they were sorry they did not provide that information previously.  Now, this business is joined with US Veterans Construction Service which is the reason I called in the first place.  Being a veteran myself I always give other veterans the business when I can.  When I mentioned this I was put in contact with the owner whom I was told is a disabled veteran.  The owner said he would give me credit if I went with his estimate, but would not refund the charge despite being a veteran myself.

Even if this was the lowest estimate I would not go with this business because there was no free estimate, no disclosure of this, and the owner would not give a fellow veteran a refund.  On top of this, the man who came out could have been an expert in the field, but he was less than personable and hardly enticed me to put this place at the top of my list regardless of the price.

I guess veteran brothers aren't as tight as I thought.  Happy Veterans Day.

Absolutely positively undeniably the worst in the business. Management does not respond to calls. Even their techs acknowledge this fact. Think of any experience you have had with the phone company but Ritter is 100 times worse. They push the aging population of Buffalo to buy products they do not need. The installation is then done incorrectly, and the ongoing service is cartoon-like. They do bill very effectively and endlessly. Run away and don't look back. They are terrible.

I got a frantic 5:00 PM call about 4 of water in the basement of our rental property. After trying 3 other businesses that popped up through a Google search, I called H.W. Bryk & Sons. Brandon showed up at my house within 20 minutes. He quickly assessed the problem, and had everything taken care of in around 45 minutes. The price was unbelievable!!!  My husband and I had expected to pay 3x as much for an emergency nighttime call. Good to know there is a reliable business to call whenever we have an issue!!!!

This place preys on single women. They try to tell you that you need a brand new conditioning unit when all you need is a $40 part. *I know this because this is exactly what happened to me.* they told me i needed a brand new $3800 air conditioning unit .  I asked why can't i just have the part replaced  ( a new fan blade) and they told me the part was discontinued and they couldn't get the part. The woman at the desk (apparently the OWNER ) told me she called ALL of her distributors and she couldn't get the part. She also would not disclose who her distributors were when I asked.
I looked up the part myself, found it online for $40. It was shipped next day air.  I installed it myself in 15 minutes.
This place LIES to you !!!!! I wish I could give them 0 stars - but this site won't let me.

Have used in past with out issue. Today have full house back up, called hours ago and made emergency appointment. Appointment between 3-5 today. Very happy with that.

they call at 2:30 and inform me the appointment has been moved to next Friday. Like that would be ok with anyone. And then made some statement that discounts offered do not apply.

promply hung up and will never call again. The thought of trying to find plumber now at 3 pm. When I called them around 10 am.  They stink big time!
