Best in Pittsburgh PA

Very happy with Express Plumbing. Its such a relief to find a professional that I can actually trust. (especially when he was dealing with me and not my husband) I was ripped off by a big name plumber who didn't even finish the job. I called Express Plumbing and the same day Steve came out and fixed the mess the other guys left. He was quick and very reasonable. I have since had him come back to install a hot water tank, as well as a new furnace and AC unit. I highly recommend!

I have used Al Buerkle for years and his company is, in my opinion, the company you call when you want work done correctly.  I trust this company completely.  The entire staff is friendly and polite and Al is super fun to deal with.  He knows everything there is to know about plumbing & heating and he is fair and honest.  If you are looking for a solid company to repair, to install, to check that your systems are operating optimally, call A J Buerkle.
You will not be sorry you did.

Harry is very professional and knowledgeable.  His approach to the work was thorough.  I will definitely use him again.

Came quickly when called. Analyzed the problem and repaired on what was needed repair.  I highly recommend the company.  The plumber  was friendly and helpful.

Very nice group of people.  Good value,knowledgeable,helpful.
Went out of their way to bring a product in from another store.

What a day, It all started 2 days ago when my wife Tammy saw water leaking from the water supply line to the fridge. It's under the floor joists in the basement ceiling. She shut it off with the little valve that's connects the hose for the fridge to the copper waterline.
 The next day she noticed the water that leaked on the basement floor, had dried up. In the mean time, she and my step-daughter Tanya went to the store, as they usually do on Saturday, and decided they could buy a new water supply kit and repair it themselves.
 In order to change the 'little &%$%#oops! valve' that attaches to the copper pipe, they had to turn off the water with the main valve coming into the house. This is when it got really interesting... OK, Water off?  A-OK. Valve replaced? A-OK. Water turned back on?...... Mucho problema!..... Water spraying out of the top of the main valve!  Ay, chihuahua!... Houston, we have a problem... (for those who are 30 and under, Apollo 13 had just experienced an explosion and astronaut Jim Lovell called mission control in Houston to report the problem.)  Tammy had to turn the water supply valve off... now we have no water... and it's Saturday. Now what?
 We need to turn the water off at the street to replace the main valve in the house, but it's Saturday and how do we contact anybody at the water company? Well you can't...
 Now I'm worried... but was lucky to find a plumber who was willing to come and  repair it.came Sunday afternoon and had difficulty finding the underground main valve in the alley. The standpipe ('curb box' for access to the valve, ) was leaning and had been pushed over at some point. It was also full of rocks and dirt because the lid was broken.
 Richard dug by hand for a few hours before finally exposing the valve and used a special wrench to shut it off.
 He then installed a new 'shut-off' valve inside the house and fixed the supply line to the fridge.
 We found Jay to be a pleasant and courteous man and would recommend him highly and without reservation.

Had a faucet replacement that needed done for a while and finally scheduled Jaros. They showed up well within the time window and completed the job in just under an hour. Reasonably priced and Travis did an excellent job on the installation. I can't recommend them highly enough and will most definitely call them any time that I need a plumber in the future.

My 5 year old furnace stopped working unexpectedly.  The first place I called said it would be several days before they could have someone look at it.  Mark was able to come out within 3 hours, diagnosed the problem in 5 minutes, and drove to get the part to make sure my furnace could be fixed the same day.  While I hopefully will not need his services again for a long time, I will be sure to contact Mark for any plumbing and HVAC needs.

Buyer beware, this place is the only business I have ever shopped at that does not take returns. Even offering that I would take a 30+% loss as a restocking fee, the company still had no interest in accepting a return for unused materials. I will never purchase materials from this place again and if you think there is any chance that you may not pick the right materials don't risk the loss. You are better off at another retailer.

Unfortunate timing with a Fri. evening sewer backup in our basement meant calling an emergency Plumber after normal hours. We had the same issue two weeks earlier and used a Plumber provided by our Home Warranty Program. From the first initial call, all the way to Barak showing up within 30 minutes of the call, our experience with AG Plumbing was excellent. Problem solved and at a very fair price. Barak went beyond what the previous Plumber did to find the source of our problem and was very clear explaining every step of his process. We would highly suggest AG to anyone with plumbing needs.

I had such a great experience working with Terry from Terry's Plumbing that I need to tell my story.
My sewer backed up a few weeks ago, unfortunately at the same time my mother passed.  I called another service I had used years ago to clean it out.  They now advertise themselves as the best in the business.  For a low price they offered to clean it out. A quick service and camera inspection was done.  I was presented with a 'Proposal' for $9000 for a complete sewer line replacement under the house.  I was also told lines from the slop sink needed replaced and possible we would have to blow out under the front porch for an extra fee.  Needless to say I was floored.  I was told the system was blocked, was temporarily opened but would fail.
Needless to say, I was devastated.
At that point I started researching other options.  One person I contacted was Terry.  He assuaged my concerns and thought there may not really be that big an issue.  We decided to wait a couple of weeks to see what happens.  Of course as suspected it backed up.
Terry came himself this week and worked on the line and had it completely cleared out in an hour.  He showed me the complete line on camera as he finished.  And...all for less than $150.00.
What a great man!  Wonderful, personable and most importantly Honest!  
Even thought I was in the midst of my Moms passing the other company still tried to take me to the cleaners.  They called and emailed me when I cancelled.  Run, don't walk when what you are told doesn't seem right.
Peg C.

Terribly rude person/owner.  He was very condescending and has little patience when speaking to customers.  He lost his patience and hung up on me because my child began to ask for me.  Would not recommend him to anyone ...especially if they have children.

Hired Jake and Jim's to relocate kitchen water line. All work was done very professional. Jake was very responsive in answering all my questions, and in completing the job on 5-18-2022.

Hiring him this week for next project!  Very happy with his work :))

I had exterior line coverage, which contracted Calfo to come out.  They relocated and replaced my exrerior water line.  Since the city was replacing the main lines in the streets, i had to wait to get the new line tapped in.  Calfo left the water line hanging out of the front yard.  They never came back or returned numerous messages left.

Once the new line was tapped, i had to have another plumber move my water meter or i wouldnt have had water.

They were also paid to replant the grass, never did.  I was told that I needed all these extra valves on my meter to be up to code and i had to pay $450...but the 2nd plumber said they were already on there.

Their employee, Pete, had trouble getting a hold of their tree removal service.  After several messages left, i gave him the number of someone i knew.  Pete left Calfo....and Tim Calfo refused to pay my tree guy anything after the work had been done.

They got paid almost $8,000 for this job and did a fraction of the work.

we cannot say enough horrible things about these people. stay far away. Via our home warranty company they have been working on fixing our heat/ ac unit since January 11, 2021. As of today July 8, 2021 it remains unfixed. In May they removed it and cut lines claiming they were installing a new one. That never occurred. They took our unit and we have never seen them again. none of them know what they are doing, they are dishonest, incapable of doing work, leave cigarettes everywhere, and will never fix anything. This company needs to be shut down.

I will never  use or recommend this business.  They are deceitful and dishonest. They were 3 hours late came in and completed the estimate.  signed the contract. Then proceeded to inform us that we needed a new gas line because he didn't have a  washer that was needed. Then was quoted an additional 239.00 for a 3 ft. Gas. I stated that we agreed on the original contract price. And of course the office said in the contact there is a statement that states the possibility of  additional costs. But I didn't know this because we still haven't received any copies of the contract or invoice. Then I was completely convinced that they are not on the  up and up when I  received a phone call from  their office  telling me that  they won't be able to make it to our home  because the truck was  broken down. And I asked her is it the one that was  in my driveway. I don't think that they are  a credible  company  and should  reconsider having a certain quote on their  vehicles removed
