    tldr; Same bathroom, different leak, same ultimate result: fixed right at reasonable cost…read more A slow drip was coming out of the ceiling on the first floor. Upstairs suspects included an old water heater closet that had been turned into a vanity room with a sink in the 60s, and the original bathroom from initial build in 1909. I was thinking it was a supply pipe issue. Richie's plumber disagreed, he thought we should change the wax on the toilet, even though the toilet did not appear to be running, was only used occasionally, and after all I'm a mechanical engineer by training and I thought it was a pressurized supply issue. But I'm also not an AH and bit my tongue. The short: Me wrong; he right. He changed the wax, and now months later, no sign of leak. The toilet flapper was indeed leaking, only very occasionally triggering a refill, but creating enough of a trickle to surface-tension its way along the pipe and sneak out through a compromised wax ring. Score: Plumber experience, 1; modeling fluid flow with a diffy-Q, 0. As impressive as the initial correct diagnosis was the caveat left with me when they had gone. Plumber told me "probably is the wax ring, be we can't really be sure. You'll know in a few days. We might be wrong and would have to tear into the wall to look at supply and sewage lines" What refreshing and honest advice after years of bad experiences with HVAC and auto mechanics where an initial diagnosis was made confidently, repaired but also accompanied by "oh we *also* found that...we need another day." Cue another work ticket and a second bill, usually bigger than the first. Bad tank of gas? "Oops, sorry; timing belt. Our bad. JHere's the bill" or "yeah, that fan motor is all that's bad but we can't fix a $150 motor, you need an $18000 new system." It's a real and growing problem in the repair industries. Not at Richies Plumbing: they were honest about my issue, up front about the small chance something other than the wax ring was leaking, and turned out to be right. I highly recommend Richies.

    What has Richie's crew done for me recently... * Installed a…read moredishwasher. * Changed what must have been the original sink drain pipe in the kitchen (HORRIFYING). * Installed a new kitchen sink. Just a week or so ago, they fixed terracotta pipes under my coworker's house because they were cracked. Gotta love an old house. I've used Richie's Plumbing for over 20 years and always highly recommend.

    I had my HVAC system installed just about two years ago, with an extended warranty. I went with…read moreCalloway & Sons solely based on their positive Yelp reviews as my friends really didn't have anyone to recommend. I'm not going to lie: getting this system installed in a home we were living in at the time was not a pleasure and I won't ever go through it again. We had to get the duct work done which is a horrifying mess (there's no way around it) and to Calloway & Son's credit, they did suggest we go with a split system. Live and learn. We also thought we were getting a system with zones which didn't happen and it was never fully explained why, but in these old homes with impossibly high ceilings and two levels, your bills are going to be extremely high if you have one single unit. It is what it is. I certainly don't blame them for that! But on to the most important stuff: the system is pretty good. Again, old house, not the greatest insulation and taking all that into consideration we are comfortable 80% of the year. The other 20% of times are where things are a less than awesome: this year's blizzard and any extremely cold days mean for a very hot upstairs, requiring us to run the window AC unit. And on those blistering hot summer days, there's no way we're comfortable upstairs without the window unit. Again, my house... it's ancient. It wasn't made for these types of systems. Last summer, there was a day in August when the system stopped working on a Friday. I was more than a little disappointed when I was told they couldn't give us a service visit unit until Monday. If you live here, you know it is literally unbearable to not have AC on a summer day. Luckily the very kind lady on the phone worked with us and fit us in. I also now pay for insurance that ensures priority service. I was only able to afford to get the HVAC on the owner's side of my two family house done and that was about 25K. The financing was not great... if I hadn't paid it off ASAP, it would have been almost double that. So try to pay it all upfront if possible. At least the option is there if you need it.

    My vent wasn't blowing in only one room. Ricky came out and was very knowledgeable. He assessed the…read moreunit and diagnosed it very quickly. He discovered that one of the duct ties had come loose and he attached it. He explained how the tie and duct came loose and the entire process. I'm a bit more knowledgeable now! He went above and beyond!
