Best Leak Detection in Pittsburgh PA

Have been calling Matt Brown for years. This time around I tried to be a DIY'r and I totally destroyed my bathroom plumbing. Matt Brown came on a days notice and fixed in an hour what took me weeks to botch. Very clean, professional, & polite. Will defiantly call again.

I needed a kitchen faucet replaced after chronic leaking and rusting. These folks were friendly, professional, and fast. They did a great job and the pricing was very reasonable. I will definitely call on them again if the need arises!

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

We had what we hoped was a minor leak.  Thanks to Express Plumbing's knowledge and expertise they discovered a crack in the pipe which extended up the inside wall and curved into the ceiling.  It was not easy to detect the extent and we feel fortunate it was their years of experience and knowledge that found the extent of the problem.    They were prompt in arriving onsite.   Upon arrival they wore footwear covering over their rather clean shoes I might add, although it was a dry day and I said you don't have to, they said, no, it's our protocol.    We totally trust them and would highly recommend them to you.  Price point was very reasonable for the several hour job from start to finish.  Friendly.  Professional.  Knowledgeable.   Trustworthy - and they explained what they are doing every step.   It was not an easy job too numerous reasons to explain.   Number one in our books and we will recommend to all in our community.  Thank you so much!

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.

Let me first say both Andrew and Christopher were extremely professional. Coming from California, I was extremely impressed with both of the men's presentation and integrity. I had a wonderful experience with Andrew who had extreme attention to detail. I had a lot of small detailed work on floor and trim that needed finished. Previous contractor was sloppy. I couldn't be more happy with the job and how easy he was to work with. Andrew allowed me to walk him through the house as he completed each task, he worked very well with me and displayed nothing but respect and eagerness for my satisfaction. Christopher was doing the electrical work and also displayed attention to detail reviewing carefully each project to make sure it was completed efficiently. I actually kept both guys 3 hours longer because the original company who was to hang outdoor lighting never showed. These guys stayed and Christopher completed all of my outdoor lighting and other indoor lighting. If you want efficient work done in a timely manner this is your handyman service.

We needed a plumber immediately because our garbage disposal was clogged. Within a few hours time the plumbers were able to come out and work their magic. Nick & Joey were Very knowledgeable, personable and efficient workers. Thank you for your excellent service & quick response!

I called Bill Brown with a blocked outside drain problem at my sons rental and he said he would be there at noon and that is the exact time he came.  The price was less than any other places I have called and the drain was unblocked in a timely fashion so no extra fees were charged!  He explained the problem when he was done and my son and I were very pleased!  I will never call anyone else.  I will use him for my home and all my rentals!  I have had similar problems at other rentals and they charged me twice as much as he did and were there half the time!

I had my furnace installed last july. The installation was a  nightmare. The young tech installed the switch upside down, left loose screws laying on ground underneath furnace (he apparently gave up on trying to screw them in), filter compartment was set up so ridiculously that you couldn't help from pulling/hitting the wires, my painted basement floor was all scratched up, he left leftover wire/dirt on the floor. When he told me he was finished, I walked over to the furnace to see if he would tell me anything about the furnace. He said nothing. I asked him where the switch was and to show me how to get the filter out since it was clearly impossible to do so. He didn't seem to be interested in installing this furnace properly. I'm only giving it 3 stars because when I called to have these things redone, the tech was very nice and apologized and chalked it up to 'young kids these days.' Also, this furnace doesn't sound quiet to me. If I have any future problems with this furnace, man am I going to be upset.

I've used Cuccaro about 4 times. In all cases they were prompt, efficient and reasonably priced. And everyone I've dealt with has been a pleasure to work with. They're a great outfit and I highly recommend them.

They advertise a $64.50 sewer service opening or free, it sounded great.  However this really is a come on to get in the door for alot more money.  I had them out, Greg and another tech , they spent two hours putting on a big show, trying to open a main line, walking around with what reminded me of a metal detector, the had walkie talkies,  real big show, then they said their equipment was not working right , could not narrow down the problem, really acted like they had no clue...  and then  only to jump ship when they could not figure anything out, and left me with terrible back up in main sewer , They mentioned a $64.50 charge, but agreed when I reminded them it did not open and was supposed to be free as per Jamie the receptionist, then Greg said  that yes it was free... after I reminded him... Later that day  Sullivan Super emailed me a $4850.00  bid for an exploratory service charge with no warranty or guarantee. Basically a dig and look around, with no promise of anything.  Who would do that ?  They must think this was my first time I ever had a problem and was in the total dark.   I would never call them for anything again.    Wasted my time, zero results....  all done to sell a large $$ job.  I moved on a found a professional company that solved it.

Great job,   super speedy came in less than an hour to fix main drain problem, would recommend to anyone    Dan

DO NOT Work With This Company

They show up late to appointments without telling you when they will arrive.  They call late in the day and then want to charge for showing up after dark when work can't be done.  Hidden charges they request even when work has not been done.  No professional behavior by plumbers or service office reps. Outrageous pricing!!

I manage 100 residential property units mostly for private investors who choose their own heating and air-conditioning companies they want to use. Had the misfortune of needing the services of this company because the owner of this property chose them to install brand new heating and air-conditioning systems to a duplex costing well over $20,000 in total. Made an appointment to have the air-conditioning systems checked trying to keep good maintenance of the systems service man comes checks one system takes less than five minutes I ask him if he's going to check the other he said no .I said well the two systems here why would you only check one ,he said no one mentioned two systems and walked away and got in his truck. They have cute commercials and well thought out jingles ,perhaps they should spend more time training their employees on good customer service, there's a four letter word for the gentleman that serviced my unit today that word is jerk.

Am sitting in a house in which EVERYTHING is covered in fine dust from
replacing an 8x5-foot bathroom; however, the only thing in this ONLY bathroom now is a toilet. The floor is plywood, the walls are open studs. I wash hands & face, brush teeth, wash dishes, cook, etc., in the kitchen sink.  Luckily I have a basement utility sink where washing machine drains to take a bath, i.e. a washcloth bath.  I now have washing, clean-ing, vacuuming, dusting, polishing, dry cleaning, etc., EVERYTHING in a bedroom, den, kitchen, dining & living rooms, & two basement rooms the size of the first floor.  Am afraid to go up to second floor bedrooms!  The plumbers started Monday & it's now Friday night. I have the weekend (& the past week) WITH ONLY A TOILET in the plywood bathroom! Every-thing from the bathroom is stacked here, there, wherever there's space!  While I have used Allen Plumbing before, this is a complete & utter disaster & will be cleaning this mess for at least a month & who knows how large a dry cleaning bill plus others for cleaning supplies to wash, polish, clean, sweep, dust, vacuum EVERYTHING:  window sills, curtains, drapes, rugs, carpets, all furniture, two pianos, lamps, ceiling lights--you get the idea--everything on the first floor & two-room basement!  The furnace/AC will need be professionally cleaned & its three-month old filter needs replaced!   Everything is covered in fine dusk--even the back porch which is OUTSIDE; the bathroom window is/was open!!!  Forget the temperature outside is in the high 80's so the air conditioner is also full of dust & sending it out everywhere!!!  If you need major plumbing work done, be sure to talk to several plumbers, ask questions & compare answers; don't just trust positive assurances.  Remember YOU'RE the one living with results of the assurances!  It ain't pretty or positive for you!  It's weeks more work and expense!

Even 1 star is too much for these guys.I had a new furnace installed. Before the warranty ran out it kept running and would never shut off unless I turned it off. Called to see if they could come out and fix the problem and wanted to charge me 200. Owner is ignorant and rude

This company is terrible. First, they did not show up for a scheduled appointment at a vacant home, where we waited for six hours and called every 45 minutes to be told we were next on the list.

Second, they WILL NOT quote you over the phone and they changed me TWICE what they said it should be.

I hired them to do a lateral sewer camera test and a dye test. They inspected what I think was the neighbor's lateral sewer line and they never did the dye test. The technician showed up confused and told me he didn't have a camera. Then he left to go to the store to get the stuff for the dye test, which he isn't legally allowed to do because he's NOT A PLUMBER!

He came back, remembered he had the camera, insisted on using an outside drain entry instead of the two I requested he use inside of the house to detect potential problems in the house as well. He failed to complete the provided paperwork, or to have it completed and returned to me. He did NOT do the dye test and promised that his boss would come and do it. One month ago... and still no paperwork or dye test. They had no problem taking the money (200% of the normal rate for these services and no quote until the work was done?!?! Their policy??!?) and I have filed a BBB complaint, posted on Angie's list and have contacted them 15 times by phone with no response.

Adam Mondine of Modine Plumbing & Construction is FRAUDULET!  He asked for a $150 retainer for Tiling my shower. He declined to do the work and promised to refund my money. Over the last 6 week I have asked Adam for the refund and he promised he would. He has lots of excuses of why he could not!
Not a Man of his Word.  Please stay away from him. 6 weeks of his excuses are enough!
