Best Plumbing Services in Philadelphia, PA

This plumbing company was originally contracted through my insurance agency. There were communication problems but I overlooked it. I then hired outside of my insurance problem to do a major job for me. The home is vacant and several times I tried to make arrangements for someone to be there for them to show up. Having my daughter take off work and they didn't show. I originally talked to the worker in the office to try to hire them. She said she understood the urgency and would get back to me as soon as possible. Well 2 weeks later I called and asked if she had an answer. She asked me to refresh her memory and she called the owner and he got back to me about the job. He seemed like a very nice person and had my best interest at heart. He assured me that the job I was paying for was total cost from excavation to planting grass etc. I hired them even though I was still having communication problems. I was working against the clock due to winter weather. After several times of we will be there. I would call the night before and everything is a go I was told, to find the next morning I get a call sorry we don't have the part needed Now who schedules a major job without the major part? Then I finally have the joint placed and I think the job is done. Only to find this PVC pipe sticking up in the middle of the yard with no cap on it. Wide open to the elements. No seed or straw just one big mud pit. I called several times and they ignored me. Well now, they already were paid. Then a few feet of snow comes I had a bucket placed over the open pipe. I called again left messages. The snow melted still no response as to when I could expect the job to be finished. The owner seemed to be a nice caring guy. I was duped. The job still is not complete. Don't be taken in by what seemed to be a charming caring owner. Obviously no pride in his work.

I received great attentive service throughout the process and the repair was completed in a quick direct way with the team informing us of the status as progress was made. The pricing was fair and competitive if not as straightforward as I expected. The kitchen sink drain was snaked and new sink drain pipes installed.

I have used harker plumbing for many years. The are reliable,  trustworthy and do great work. I recommend them whenever possible.

Needed a plumber last week.  Called a local company and scheduled a time for the next day.  Was scheduled 11-1pm. At 230 I called them and The dispatcher said she will call me back with an update. Around 315 I get a call from her and they want to reschedule for the following day.  I took off work to be there at 1030am for them. Wasn't going to take another chance with them. Then I called Larry at the plumbing company.  He told me he would be there the next day around noon. At 9am he called to see if he could come out earlier.  By 1030am he's pulling into my driveway, by noon my old kitchen faucet is replaced and working properly.  Price was fair and his service was excellent.  Would highly recommend...........Joe B.

I've been using Ellis Albert for my heater/AC repairs.  Their service is always very fast and technicians are knowledgable.  They are very honest and will not overcharge.

I had a pipe freeze on Xmas and was desperate to have someone come out asap, since we didn't have any water all day. Keith was responsive, came out right away, replaced the broken pipe and I'm back in business. I really appreciated communicating through the app, and as well via text. I hate calling places. I'm so impressed, I scheduled more work to be done with Keith, that I had been delaying for months. Thanks again!

Another Friday plumbing emergency.  while using the garbage disposal without warning it came to an abrupt halt and it was still full. Instant stress! I don't know anything about garbage disposals except the on and off switch. I was expecting to have to replace it. I took a deep breath and immediately reached out to Tony the owner of iFixdit. He came to my rescue previously with replacing my water heater. I explained what happed and he patiently and meticulously walked me through troubleshooting the problem. And with his knowledge and expertise we got the garbage disposal running . He is a true professional!!  

If you have a plumbing problem, call him first.

Can't say enough about this restaurant the food is so good and you better be hungry when you get there the sandwiches are extra large but prices are very reasonable steaks and hoagies are so very good and big . I don't think many people will be able to finish one, they are family members who operate the place and very friendly they bring your food and they leave you alone to enjoy your meal I wish I could give them 10 stars but that's not a option. Can't wait to go back again soon love this restaurant and it even smells good too.

Needed a hot water heater installed. The price they charged me was 600.00 under the lowest price I received before them. Thank you sunny

Horrible service.  I'm gonna be desperate if I ever go back.  Trying to buy something from them is like pulling teeth.

Nice people and good work, but too expensive. For the same price I could have called the other company that wear shoe slippers and only sends the labor needed.

Maybe it is because I have a Haddonfield address, but they sent two guys for a one person job. No literally, only one guy could fit in the space to do the work. At best the other guy could hand tools and be moral support. Of course I was charged the labor for both.

I had them in today, referred by a friend, for a few minor jobs. The plumber who came was on time, awake, friendly and efficient. Work done was minor but done quickly and without any problems. Communication about what was done and what was needed was great, and I intend to use them again for a couple of larger jobs (like installing a dishwasher...) in the near future.

I've had a series of bad experiences with plumbers so this was a relief and a pleasure.

Bought a house and needed the furnace/boiler checked prior to the winter season.  Was also having some issues with the system in general.  I called the  company that had serviced the equipment for years (The previous owner had highly recommended) and they no showed on me twice but called me back to see if I wanted to buy a service plan.  (!?!).  That was enough for me.  I started the hunt for a new Heating guy.

Out of desperation I asked a friend for a referral and she recommended G.J. Stimmler and sons.  (She raved about them and how honest they were)  I'm very happy that she referred them.  In no time, I had the owner Andy and his assistant on my doorstep and the furnace was being cleaned and inspected.  They identified the cause of my problems and replaced an electrical part.  The bill was very reasonable and I never felt like they were rushing to get to the next job.  

This is a local, family owned company that's a couple of generations in the making.  I can see why they have endured.  The entire time they were working, Andy answered my barrage of questions about hot water heating systems in general and my 36 year old boiler in particular.  I asked when it should be replaced.  Clearly, there are no high pressure sales tactics here.  I was told my system is past it's normal useful life of 30 years but that it's been very well maintained and does not look it's age at all.  He said it was a coin toss and that the boiler  could last for a few years more or die in a few months. There's just no way to know.  He simply suggested putting money away as and when I can and planning for a new system down the road.  On top of that, when I asked him if he knew of a good tree service, he gave me a name and number that worked out fantastically.

What sealed the deal for me was about a month later, I called the emergency line because my furnace went out.  Andy diagnosed the problem over the phone based on my description and told me what to do.  Heat restored.  Zero charge.  These are the only guys I will use from now on.  I cannot recommend them enough and I see their truck in the neighborhood a couple of times a week at least.

Irrelevant but interesting - I recently looked at some of the yellowed paperwork and instruction sheets that are tacked to the basement wall near the furnace.  (Most pamphlets are for equipment long since removed but they date back to the early 60's.)  These documents were added to over the years by Obsessive owners as new parts were installed/equipment replaced and they have apparently remained untouched for decades.  Being a history nerd, I took them down and sifted through them and discovered that my boiler was installed (in 1980) by none other than G.J Stimmler and Sons.  Irony!  That just gives me warm fuzzies.  One generation of a family business installed the equipment, the current generation will (eventually) take it out and replace it.  Full circle....

This is my go to plumbing company now, The first time I had the leak with the pipe for My wash machine, Jeff put new valves on it. And the second time my toilet seal break, and it was leaking to my downstairs ceiling. They fixed in 5 minuets. The guys were very efficient. I like the work they did.

This is a follow-up of my previous reviews of James-Michael Fay as my last one was in 2015 and we still are very happy with their services.  It is very hard to find people who are still ambitious in doing their job and really care about the customer.

The best prices, services and response time.

Ben's ProServ came through for me bigtime today, my AC went down and they were able to make a repair and get me back up and running. Honest guys that stand behind their work, give you honest advice and take care of their customers.
