We had a clog in a pipe from the kitchen out to the sewer. Instead of draining the water and unclogging it, he sliced it in half somewhere at the clog and then patched it back together with some pipe repair material. I was not happy with it. He should have asked us before he cut the pipe. I talked to the owner and he said he would put in a new pipe. He sends the same guy back, he had a bad attitude and I wasn't sure I wanted him in my house again. They made my pipe right-we're ok now, but it just wasn't right at the time.
Description of Work: We needed a clog removed from the clean out in the pipe in the basement.

The plumber showed up on time and took several hours to use camera to scope the sewer. Just getting the estimate for repair work was $500 - much higher than what I paid other plumber to scope. Then, it took several phone calls to get them to provide a written estimate for work to be done. After a couple of weeks, they finally had their estimator take a look at the video and provide an estimate. I believe the plumber they sent to do the scoping wasn't very experienced, thus the high cost of $500 just to scope (they charge by the hour). Not sure why he couldn't have provided the written estimate instead of having to wait weeks to get an estimator to review. I have contacted them several times to get a copy of the video (which I paid for), but have never received. I believe it's best to work with a company that specializes in sewer work for these types of repairs -- especially since they can run more than $5,000.00.
Description of Work: Had them scope the sewer to check for leaks and provide an estimate for possible repair.

The man who came was wonderful, he did a great job he was very quick. I thought that the price was very fair. He gave me advice on what faucets to purchase and which were best. He offered his services any time and said to call with problem. It was a great experience I definitely would hire him again

Jeremy was very courteous and knowledgeable. However the price was far in excess of what is available in the market.
Description of Work: I called because the water heater was leaking. Jeremy came promptly and provided an estimate of $1,216 for a heater with a 6 year warranty, which is all they sell apparently, although you can buy a 10 year warranty for $185. I purchased a water heater from Sears, and the total installed was $820, including the permit. The heater is 50 gallons, warranty 12 years tank and parts. See Consumer Reports recommendation. Estimated cost: $59.00.

They get lots of awards because they are really good. All of the guys are really professional and they call before they arrive. I have used them for 15 years. I like how they educate me a little and they are always helpful. They put the booties on, tidy up, and take all the garbage they accumulate with them.

Due to corrosion of the faucet it took over an hour to complete the job. Plumbers are expensive; thus the B rating for price. We did not comparison shop as Ravinia has done work for us before and we trust them.

I have no complaints. I did not get any competing estimates. I knew they were local and had a good reputation. We had an emergency and they came right out. I would consider using them again. everything went well but they were not able to recommend someone to fix the asphalt they had to rip up. I am annoyed at that.
Description of Work: They did about $5000 worth of work. We had a lot of details to take care of. They found a problem and we had to have our drain lines cleaned.

This part of our project went very well. We are very pleased with the new laundry area. The Mahoney staff is a pleasure to work with. Mr. Mahoney gave a reasonable price and a thorough estimate. The office staff is courteous, efficient and helpful. The plumber was prompt, dependable, flexible, and neat. He wore shoe covers and cleaned up the work area each day.
Description of Work: Mahoney Plumbing relocated the laundry area in our basement. The plumbers moved gas and water lines and installed a new dryer vent as well as a new laundry tub, faucet, and sump pump. A new silcock was installed to the outside. The plumber spent an extra day on the project to cap off the catch basin and run a new line to the kitchen sink after a pipe was broken by someone else.

Called Keystone and asked for Bob, who has done work previously in my home. He came the next day and tried to repair the pipe, but the freezing temperature had expanded the copper piping, which made it impossible to repair at that point. He returned the next day with more supplies and removed a large section of the pipe and replaced it accordingly. He recommended that we not close the wall with dry wall but with wood so as to have access if this happened in the future. We insulated each pipe and the entire area and sealed the wall with wood.
Description of Work: Repaired a broken pipe in our garage wall, that was leaking water into the garage. The pipe supplied water to the second floor furnace's humidifier.

They are professional, prompt, and did everything they were expected and more. They were way above other estimates but we picked them because they used better equipment then the other estimates. I have yet to see if the system works right, but I was surprised at the higher level of detail and better quality of their work compared to other plumbers we have used. They are expensive but you seem to get what you pay for. Recommend without reservations.

Response from Ravinia Plumbing, Sewer, Heating & Electric
I SPOKE WITH HIM SHORTLY AFTER THE TIME WE HAD SCHEDULED HIS ESTIMATE AND APOLOGIZED FOR MISSING THE APPOINTMENT. I ASKED IF HE WOULD LIKE ME TO COME OUT NOW BUT HE SAID HE WOULD CALL BACK IN A HALF HOUR TO RESCHEDULE. HE DID NOT. I CALLED THREE MORE TIMES TO APOLOGIZE AND POTENTIALLY RE-SCHEDULE. WHEN NONE OF MY PHONE CALLS WERE RETURNED, I WROTE A LETTER APOLOGIZING. THAT LETTER ALSO WENT UNANSWERED. I SUPPOSE I COULD HAVE PROVIDED A BS YET BELIEVABLE EXCUSE FOR MY TARDINESS BUT INSTEAD I CHOSE TO TELL THE TRUTH. I MADE A MISTAKE, WHICH RESULTED IN A LOST HALF HOUR OF TIME FOR THE CUSTOMER. I TRIED NUMEROUS TIMES TO APOLOGIZE AND I’M DOING IT HERE AGAIN.

We have had multiple jobs done by Tom and his folks and have been consistently impressed with the quality of work, the pleasant interaction and the cost. We have a house from the 1920's and each and every plumber that has come through has been professional and courteous.
Description of Work: We had a leak in a pipe that caused the ceiling of my garage to fall in (late on a Friday night of course) that I found out subsequently had been due to a previous contractor hooking copper in to galvanized pipe.

Our call was answered by a knowledgeable phone attendant, who had a plumber to us within two hours. He found that the toilet had been installed without an extension pipe and with an old, hardened wax ring. The pipe had to be special ordered, and when it came in two days later, the company immediately contacted us and arranged an specific appointment for the following morning, which allowed us both to get to work on time without hanging out all day waiting for a repairman. Kevin the plumber was polite, thorough and neat.
Description of Work: A new toilet was installed incorrectly by another contractor. When it began leaking all over our new bathroom, we called in Ravinia.

Originally installed a Blue Angel system that failed twice due to becoming clogged with silt in the sump pit. Ravinia stood behind their product and service by replacing the Blue Angel with an Aquanot system without charge. The Aquanot has worked flawlessly since installation. Company seems to take pride in their work and stands behind the customer. Have used in the past and will continue to use again.

DiPietro scheduled an appointment for the next day in response to our non-emergency service call. Ed arrived on time. He was knowledgeable, polite and professional. We appreciated his expertise in plumbing and his help in determining whether to repair or replace one of our toilets. We decided to replace one of our older toilets (1976) instead of having it repaired. We will purchase the toilet at a local hardware store and will have DiPietro install it.
Description of Work: Tightened tanks on two newer toilets to stop from leaking water onto floor. Repaired leaking kitchen faucet. Examined third toilet and offered to order replacement part or come back to install new replacement toilet.
