In a word, excellent. Our Noritz tankless water heater stopped heating, plus we had gone 9 years without a descaling, so we had 2 tasks. I selected Stanley Plumbing because their website prominently indicated they do tankless water heaters, and are also specifically mentioned they are a Noritz installer. Don Stanley came out promptly. He cautioned me that if an old water heater that has never been descaled, and you have hard water (we do), sometimes descaling can essentially unplug an existing a leak. In other words, sometimes a tiny hole is actually plugged by the scale. I agreed and he went to work. First he fixed the "not heating" problem ? the ignitor was corroded, so he replaced it. Then, he descaled the water heater, and it did spring a small leak. Fortunately, he noticed our water heater was still under the Noritz factory warranty. He called Noriz, and they rushed out the parts the next day. (We are fairly close to the warehouse.) The parts were free under warranty, though labor was not, but his rate was reasonable. Don returned to replace the leaking heat exchanger. When he removed the old one, it was obvious there had been a slow leak for a long time ? there was a stream of corrosion running inside, right down on to the ignitor, which is why the old igniter failed in the first place. Both Stanley Plumbing and Noritz have my full endorsement. Don Stanley for his good service and reasonable prices, and Noritz for standing behind their very good product. When someday my water heater finally dies, many years from now, I expect to call Stanley Plumbing and asking them to install a new Nortiz.

Don was on time, friendly and easy to work with. He got the descale underway on our tankless which took about an hour and then checked out our layout as to where we should put the water softener.  He spoke to me about the water heater scale protection device, a water softener system, and offered some suggestions about how we could save more water. We will definitely be hiring him to do this work within the next 1-2 weeks. It's nice to find someone who is knowledgable and very easy to deal with.  Definitely recommend!

Don did a great job replacing my older tankless water heater that was installed improperly by another contractor years ago.  I also  wanted a water softener and the installation was almost seamless.  He was punctual and knows his craft very well.  I would highly recommend Don to anyone looking for a professional plumber who is courteous and clean.

I was most impressed with my Stanley Plumbing experience.  On the appointed date and time, a water heater delivery truck arrived at my house with a top quality commercial water heater and Don Stanley and a helper arrived as the driver got out of the truck.  He first installed the water heater and put new earthquake straps that met current code on the water heater.  The installation was very clean and very professional with no mess made with the process.

The toilet replacement was originally contemplated to be a Flulshmate unit replacement on a Gerber toilet purchased some years ago that had started leaking.  During his installation, he noted that the leakage was due to a crack in the tank that was likely the result of the original installation being directly up against the wall and putting pressure on the tank portion of the toilet over a period of time.  He then went to a local Lowe's and purchased a new high volume flush capacity toilet to replace the damaged Gerber model.  He returned and had the toilet replacement completed in very short order and also went through the other toilets and made adjustments and replaced the flapper on one of them, resulting in that toilet operating the best I can ever recall since buying our home.  Very professional and I and my wife had a very high level of confidence and satisfaction with his services and value for same.  I would recommend Don Stanley with the highest possible rating for any plumbing services needs and he is a real class act in the world of contractors.

Mr. Stanley arrived on time, he was very professional, began work right away.  It took him around 7-8 hours to complete the job. He worked straight through.  He answered all of my questions in a courteous manner.  His work was clean, he moved things out of the way, moved them back when he was done.  Cleaned up after himself.  
After the installation was done, he explained how the system worked, gave me information on several options for accessories.  He let me know to call him with any questions I may have in the future. Overall it was a very progressional service.  I am glad I chose this provider.

Okay i guess, probably my fault I was expecting a more thorough inspection. Turns out it was an opportunity to make a sales pitch more than anything.

Response from Stanley Plumbing and Tankless Water Heaters

"I am disappointed the home owner was unable to reach us. I personally searched all messages in the Angie's list message center, the company email inbox and caller id records for the last 2 months but could not find any record of the homeowners contact. We make every effort toward good communication with our customers and delivering quality service so it is important to us to understand how a call or email could "fall through the cracks". When we, the service provider receive reviews online we can not view the customers email address or phone number to follow up we only see the name and street address. Should the homeowner happen to read this response to their review, it would be helpful to us to know a little bit more about how and when you attempted to contact us so we can make sure an opportunity to serve a customer is never missed by us again."

Don, the business owner, is a most competent and likeable guy.



|Works out of smart-looking and clean van. Considerate in going through the house, as well as when placing and winding up the tank-drain hose in the yard. (Wanted to ensure he didn't damage any flowers in the process.) Wiped his feet on the way back in the house afterwards even though the yard wasn't wet/muddy. Focuses on the job but has an easy conversational manner and patient in answering questions.



|He went through all the steps in the job's comprehensive checklist.



|He's definitely the man for your plumbing jobs!

Don preformed a plumbing evaluation and also quoted me a price for tankless water heater and water softner which was the most reasonable offer i have received thus far. Don answered all of my questions regarding warranty, longevity, and maintenance required of the tankless water heater as well as the installation process.  And never tried to up sell which i appreciated.

They did a thorough inspection of our plumbing. The faucet in our water heater broke when they emptied it. But they fixed it. They made good recommendations for a tankless water heater and water softener.

He flushed two water heater tanks. While he did this he adjusted my heater pump |which then affected my hot water in the house. He did return and increased the heater dial but my water pump is not as efficient as it was before he flushed out my tank.
Response from Stanley Plumbing and Tankless Water Heaters

"We made 3 trips to the . The first trip was for the "Big Deal" water heater flush and plumbing inspection. We flushed 2 water heaters and did the visual plumbing inspection as advertised. We found very hard water and signs of rust from the galvanized water pipe. While draining the water heaters the water is turned off at the water heater. Once drained, turned back on to flush out the sediment. Trip #2: About 1/2 hour after leaving the we received a call from the homeowner, they had very low water pressure. We responded immediately and returned within 15-20 minutes. I found the main water shut-off valve in the front of the house had been turned almost all the way off. I asked the homeowner if he had turned the valve, he said yes he thought I had forgot to turn it back on. We never turned this valve. We turn the water off at the water heater not the main. The homeowner turned the water off thinking he was turning it on. We turned the water back on and did not charge for the extra trip. Trip #3: A couple days later we received a call from the home owner stating one of the water heaters is not producing hot water. we responded right away. upon arrival I found the thermostat had been turned down all the way on the water heater. I put the thermostat back on the default setting which is indicated on the dial and demonstrated the water heater was firing properly. again we did not charge for the trip. The main water heater does have a hot water circulation pump attached to it, however the service purchased was for the flush and visual inspection only. There were no adjustments made to the pump by us. The circulation pump operates on a timer much like a lamp timer. I would advise the homeowner to look at the on and off times set on the pump and to also make sure it is plugged in. We would be happy to return and help the homeowner with this issue if they request. Don Stanley Stanley Plumbing"

Don arrived on time, and was very pleasant and professional. He showed me what he was doing and what I could do in the future to maintain the heater. His quote was almost one third of what another A-rated company had quoted me - plumbers seem to pluck numbers out of the air sometimes! Another company I was very happy with during a previous service call quoted me more than twice Don's price. So much of it just seems to be mark-up.
I was very happy with Don's work and I would hire him again.

Nice clean job. Great communication. Really wanted installed further up on outside wall to be out of site. But will live with it.
