If asked by other community homeowners I will not recommend Absolute Plumbing.

My Wife and I own a home in Kill Devil Hills. I received an e-mail from Dare County water saying…read morethat we were using 72 gallons of water a day. At present it is a 2nd home in the near future our home. We had a local plumber who is small, I called him but he couldn't help me as he was busy, he gave me another person, and when I called them they were rude as all get out and said he didn't deal with emergencies.. I called The Gentleman Plumber and spoke to, I hope I remember properly Sara. She was amazing. She had said somebody else had the same issue and it was probably a running toilet.... I asked for an emergency call but Sara couldn't promise they could get there that day however they did. They came to the house, and toilet was in fact running and they repaired it. we don't live there now but in the near future we are retiring in that house. I can't thank Sara and all who fixed something we were so worried about... She and they were tremendous! So if you are looking for a plumber and while the one we have is great, I will endorse them, I would use them, and I would rely on them in the future. Today professionalism and care mean a lot. I would encourage anybody who needs plumbing service to have them in your pocket........ They are and especially Sara should be a go to Mike and Loris McCoy Hamilton VA Soon to be from Kill Devil Hills

Heat Pump Service Issue and Billing Concern…read more Background In September 2024, I purchased two new heat pumps from R.A. Hoy. Since I am retired and spend most of my time at home, I do not need to adjust the temperature frequently. Specifically, the unit in question serves the upstairs area, which I rarely visit during the day. Discovery of the Issue In February 2026, I received a service message on my thermostat for the upstairs unit. Upon checking the unit through my app, I discovered that it had been running continuously, 24 hours a day, since mid-November 2025 up until the present date in February 2026. Service Call and Diagnosis I contacted R.A. Hoy for service. The technician identified that the unit was only producing 70-degree air and was one pound low on refrigerant. I also have 2 inspections each year that were reported as good. Electric Bill Concerns Because my electric bill is automatically paid from my bank account and has remained consistent for over 10 years, I had not been monitoring it closely. However, after realizing the heat pump had been running non-stop, I reviewed my bills and noticed an increase of over $100 per month starting from when the unit failed in November 2025. My electric bill is normally lower in the winter as my gas furnace heat my home when temperature is 40 degrees or lower. Concerns Regarding the Repair and Warranty I received a bill from R.A. Hoy for the refrigerant. I believe that, since the leak appears to be a result of the initial installation, I should not be responsible for this charge. Additionally, if this leak is not properly addressed, it is likely to recur annually. However, I was informed that because the issue arose more than a year after installation, it is not covered under the warranty.
