Best Electrical Services in Buffalo NY

Gerry McNamara at Aardvark has done electrical and plumbing work at my house on 4 different occasions and everytime is fair and honest.  I call Gerry anytime I have an issue.  Prices are in line with the market and he is very trust worthy!

I requested an estimate to demolish our old garage and build a new one. Hub came to our house and did a thorough evaluation. He even came back (the next day) with his concrete guy to look at the existing and crumbling concrete floor. Finally, he provided an written estimate for the total project cost. We haven't decided yet to do this project but I was impressed with Hub Chan. Professional and responsive.

The reason we initially chose ARB was simply that they answer their phone and they call you back when they say they will! I was so surprised at how many companies don't even answer their phones (one called me back TWO WEEKS after I left a message describing the type of basic plumbing work we needed to have done).  We have now used ARB for a few plumbing jobs and have been happy with the service provided. They arrived on time for both the estimate and work day. They were very professional and got the jobs done quickly and efficiently.

I needed my sump pump replaced, wanted to add a water pressure back up system and had them install a new garbage disposal that I had purchased myself. I had installed our previous disposal myself but I figured they were already coming so I would have them install the new disposal.

First of all, the work was excellent. My main problem was with the cost. When I questioned the high rates, $285 to install the disposal and $542 for a new sump pump and installation, I was told that they have pricing set by job not by actual time necessary. That was the least expensive model of sump pumps. Another model was $300 more.

Since you are charged a fee for having them show up at the door I decided to have them do the work but I had a feeling the jobs would not take more than an hour. They had two plumbers, one was experienced, and the other one seemed to be learning on the job. Either way, each one was done within an hour.

In hindsight I should have trusted my instincts and paid the mandatory visit fee and hired another company. If you take the cost of the pump out of the equation I paid $285/hr and $392/hr respectively more than double the highest national average.

I will never use this company again because they are taking advantage of people.

Buyer beware!  Anthony used the pandemic as an excuse to not perform pre-paid landscaping services and lied about fines he could face if he did.  Anthony refused to mow my lawn--which I paid for in advance--and claimed that if he did he could face a $25,000 fine.  Lawn maintenance was considered an essential service during the shutdown for pest control purposes, as evidenced by the fact that everyone else in my neighborhood was having their lawns mowed by professional landscapers.  I requested my money back and hired a more reliable landscaper.  Anthony agreed to pay me back in 3-4 weeks, and it's now been over 2 months and I haven't seen a dime.  I filed a claim with the Better Business Bureau, and he hasn't responded.  The next step is small claims court once it opens.  

On another note, I hired Anthony for snow plow removal and was disappointed.  The work was sloppy, unreliable, and he destroyed my lawn along the apron of the driveway.  I would not hire this company.
