Best Plumbing Services in Pittsburgh, PA

I can not recommend these guys enough and I've been telling everyone who will listen about them since they were here. We got ripped off and ghosted by another plumber, so I called Shelton Plumbing. They came out same day and had my problem fixed in less than an hour and literally saved me thousands of dollars. To top it all off, they were extremely conscious of COVID protocols and made sure I was comfortable with everything they were doing, even down to placing their clipboard on my table. I've been beaming all week and I'm just SO elated to have found a great, trustworthy company to call when we need them. Thanks again guys!!!

Heard about Bruce from B& J plumbing from a trusted neighbor. So glad I followed up with her recommendation.

Bruce was wonderful to deal with, and was completely honest and very, very helpful. Was able to replace my garbage disposal and get it installed, and also was able to hook up with the copper waterline to my brand-new refrigerator when the delivery men from home depot said they didn't know how to do so. He did all that for under $200 and on my timeline. He's honest and trustworthy and does good work!

Would recommend him to anyone in the Elizabeth and surrounding area!

I was in a time crunch. My usual go-to plumber was extremely busy on existing projects and I did not want a tenant of mine to keep waiting but wanted a trustworthy alternative. I called Samuel Bales from a search on Yelp and left a message. Michael returned my call within 5 mins. To my surprise, he was willing and able to come out right away. I texted him the address to the property where I was having a garbage disposal issue.

We met there on time. Michael was able to clear the problem and show me what I could do in the future should a similar problem arise.

The following week I called on Michael again. This time it was at another property to diagnose and clear all plumbing drains in a bathroom.

The charge for services was not cheap but they were fair, came out right away, and the attention and care to the problem were worth it. I will most definitely use Michael/Samuel Bales Plumbing again. In fact, I was getting ready to call them again for a dishwasher repair so I remembered I wanted to write them a review.

Scott called this morning and was at my house in less than 1/2 hour. He looked at my Koehler Toilet and informed me these toilets are one piece toilets. Trouble is, with a one piece toilet, you have to change the whole toilet to fix the leak inside the toilet. He was very professional, friendly, and recommended several options. We spoke at length about what to do, and I have to say, I was not aware of the problem with Koehler. He made a recommendation to change to a Gerber Viper. While learning, I asked him if they're any charges and He said No!
I will be discussing this with my Wife, and we'll go from there. When we make our decision, we will call Scott again for installation.

Thanks Scott, I appreciate your time and candor!

I have had to call Frank three times in the recent months.  Two calls were for smaller problems and one was for a large problem, a broken pipe behind a wall.   Frank was able to fix all three problems in a very reasonable amount of time and at a very reasonable charge.  I recommend Frank to be called for any type of plumbing problem.   John B   Penn Hills

I have been using Warhold both personally and for clients for several years. They are professional, honest, & provide great service. I highly recommend them!

This company gets good reviews but don't be fooled. I called them when my tenant lost access to their toilet the day after Christmas. They charged me $150 to be there that night only to not show up until the next morning on 12/27. Then, the plumber told my tenant that it was too cold to make the repairs that night. When I called them back they said that their first opening was between 8 and 9 on Friday 12/30. The morning of 12/30 at about 10 AM my tenant called to say they hadn't arrived. I called the office to be told well, whoever told you it was an A.M. appointment shouldn't have said that. Great. So when are they coming? I have no way of knowing, he's all over the place (what am I dumb, doesn't the guy have a cell phone?). Then my husband called and they told him it would probably be mid-day. Didn't hear from anyone by 3:30 PM on the 30th, so I had to call them. He'll be there, he's running late on a job. The plumber then calls my husband, asks for the phone number of my tenant, then calls my tenant and says since they have running water he won't be there until Monday 1/2. (Turns out this was also false as the receptionist later informed me that they are closed Monday). One good thing is that they agreed to refund my deposit, but it has been a terrible experience overall. Classic case of they have you by the #$%$ so they don't care about your experience

Had J&A recently over to give us an estimate to replace a garbage disposal and limited connecting pipes from it. It was a job that I have done twice myself in the past, but couldn't do not due to a neck condition, and took me between 15-30 minutes to do. I even had the new garbage disposal and all the supplies here. The plumber looked at me and quoted me $300. I basically said no to their estimate, but inside believed that they were charging excessively and trying to gouge me. I can't speak of the quality of their work, as for $300, I refused to hire them

Called on a Saturday night around 6 pm. Had 2 inches of water coming up in both drains downstairs. They were there in about and hour and had the drain cleaned out in no time. Didn't try adding on any unnecessary work. Just snaked it, made sure it was good and was on his way.

Prices are outrageous. 750 dollars for less then a hour of work. They have you by the balls when it's mid July and your AC goes out. Capacitor retails $25-$35, was charged $395. Proper mark up is 20% I'll give you $150 in labor so let's say $245 for a $35 part. 700% mark up seems excessive. The more I write it out the madder I get. Don't worry they did the same for a contactor too. So I paid Aprox %1400 for parts with a generous $150 a hour labor per item even though it took less then a hour.

Honest, hardworking, and right the first time.  Stayed late on a Friday to finish the job.

The most honest plumber ever.   I had a water leak in one of the second floor bathrooms that flooded the living room.  I call Orlando Plumbing which is a local firm to get a estimate.   He checked the bathrooms and after a few minutes told us it was a tub fitting that was loose.  $65 and that was it.  He tightened it and in 30 minutes gone.  We used him again after a couple of estimates on installing two gas lines.  Roto Rooter was $500 and Orlanda was $350.  I used him again for a water line to a new
sink and again the best service and price was excellent.   He does everthing.  Very professional.

We have used Greg for multiple jobs over the years.  I have dealt with dozens of contracts and there are only a few that I would recommend without hesitation.  Greg is one of them.  He managed a bathroom renovation for us when another contractor fell through due to a dispute.  He went the extra mile to do some carpentry projects for us even though plumbing is his main line of work.  We've used him to install faucets, fix leaks, clear out sewage lines, and other tasks.   Greg is a rare breed of truly honest people who will do his best to make things right.

Easy to get in touch with, and the guy they sent was great! He was efficient and punctual, too. The price they quoted us was reasonable. We have used them 3 times now and will be using them again.

I called on a Friday to see if someone could come to my house for an estimate on a new A/C unit. The very nice lady on the phone made an appointment for the following Monday evening at 7:30 pm, and I was looking forward to meeting the guy because she sounded so professional!  

Guess what, nobody came.  

I received a phone call 2 days later from the home sales guy, apologizing and asking if he could come the next Monday at the same time. Fair enough. People make mistakes. He came to the house and was very thorough and knowledgeable. He said He would follow up and I would be receiving an estimate.

About 2 weeks later, after not hearing from anyone, I called them because I had not received any estimate, let alone a phone call. A man called me that evening to give me a quote over the phone. I was unavailable so he left me a Vmx. I called him back and requested that I get the quote in writing, which I think is a valid request when you're about to spend a few or couple thousand on a new A/C unit, and I never heard from anyone again. And it's been about 2 weeks since I left the message.

Wow. I cannot believe the level of service from this company. I'm shocked !  You'd think that a local company, which I was happy to support, would appreciate your business, but I certainly did not feel that way at all.

I have used this Mr. Rooter for all my household plumbing needs for 20 years with complete satisfaction-  work was good, prices reasonable. This weekend my hot water tank went and naturally I gave them a call-  after all they had replaced this same water heater 15 years ago.   After waiting around all day for them to come, they showed up in the late afternoon on Saturday..  After giving them a $97 assessment fee, they told me that replacing my standard 50 gal gas water tank would cost north of $5,500.   I sent them packing of course.  Three other plumbers gave me estimates for the same work and not one was more then $1800 for the same work.  Clearly, the technician is paid on a commission and didn't feel like doing the job on a Saturday afternoon unless he could find a foolish customer to pay a ridiculous price so that he could make out (literally) like a bandit.   I wasn't so foolish, but they had already swiped my credit card for the $97 assessment fee-  still a ripoff but on a smaller scale.   Mr. Rooter has seen the last of my business for this little stunt-  I hope the $97 was worth it!  Beware of this rookish operation-   Must have new ownership because they were always reasonable and trustworthy.

Old HVAC unit stopped blowing cold air; I noticed this on a particularly hot day in late May. I reached out to Hruska on May 29, and received a callback right away. A day or so later, they sent someone to assess the problem. Recommended replacement, which didn't really surprise me as the unit was 23 years old. They quoted me a price for replacement and I let them know I'd talked to my warranty company, which I did and then called back to schedule the installation of the new unit. When I didn't hear back, I called again a couple days later and left a message at the main office. Finally received a call back a few days later. Scheduled the install on Thursday, June 13, so I arranged to work from home. He called me in the morning because it was raining to say they couldn't install in the rain and would have to play it by ear and he'd be in touch. The rain stopped around 10:30. Didn't hear from him the rest of the day. Or the next, or the day after that.

I call a couple more times and leave messages, literally saying I hope I don't get forgotten. I also tell them I'm off the upcoming Friday and Monday so that would be great for me. Finally get a call back a week after the original install was scheduled. I was in a meeting but stepped out to take the call and he asked if Saturday would work. Great, I say, before remembering that Saturday was the one day I was NOT going to be at home as I had plans with a friend from out of town. I call back to let him know that Friday or Monday WOULD work, and his response is, we typically do installs on Saturdays. Really? When you originally scheduled my install on a Thursday? Anyway... he tells me he'll call me Monday morning and we'll see what we can do.

Never heard from him again. I gave up and went with someone else.

Unacceptable. I get that people are busy, and it's a busy season and the rain is making things difficult. But you don't just blow people off. Never even offered an apology.

Should call these guys Village Idiot plumbing and heating! They have all these broken down vehicles out front, trying to make it look like a big fleet of service trucks. Most are rusting out. There's two feet of weeds growing between them. We agreed that he would send one plumber and he sent three guys and a hefty bill. I tried to pay my bill and he couldn't run a credit card machine. Too shady.....
