We had many issues with our boiler for a long time that had become extremely serious.  We had our regular maintenance company come out several times to fix the issues but with no luck.  They still charged us though!  Everyone we asked for quotes to fix the issues said we had a leak in our boiler and needed to replace it.  Mainely Plumbing were the only ones who figured out what was really going on and saved us a great deal of money.  Without using them we would have replaced the boiler and then had to do all the work they did anyway. 
We have also used them for regular maintenance since with good results.

This was an emergency call made by my wife on a Saturday morning and they were the only people who would respond but at a steep price. Emergency callout fee and very expensive parts.

Shortly after purchasing new house in Gorham, I came home after being away for a few days to find no heat. After fumbiling around for a little while I realized that there appeared to be a problem with the natural gas service into the house. The gas company wasn't initially all that helpful, though they did end up sending a technician eventually. I called Mainely after looking them up in A/L. They were super nice and provided some "over the phone diagnostics" They provided a price quote over the phone and they sent a technician over almost immediately. Chris (the technician) was very nice and professional. He helped me meet with the tech from the gas company (who also showed up around the same time) and helped me understand what was going on. The gas company guy ended up recognizing the problem and fixing it for free. Chris took a look at the heating system I have and provided some advise on service internals and other stuff. Overall good experience, and I'm happy that I now have a relationship with Mainely in case I have problems in the future!

Response from Mainely Plumbing & Heating Inc
"Being in the service field, we are generally closed for most of the major holidays, however we do forego a few of the regular holidays in order to allow our employees to take the day after Thanksgiving off. As it is not a regular business day for us, unfortunately the after hours fee applies. The after hours service fee (a flat charge of $89) is always disclosed ahead of time and that fee is almost entirely passed along to the technician who is on call to make up for the time he has to leave his family to perform the on call services. The fee for unclogging the drain is a flat rate that we have used for years. There are several varying degrees of difficulty for clearing out drain clogs (depending on what type of equipment is necessary, and whether we have to go through traps, etc), this happened to be one of the ones in the middle of the range. We did have to travel approximately 40 minutes to reach the location before we even performed our service. We try to be as fair as possible to the customer and are sorry that you were not happy with the charges for the service."

We broke an old pipe while installing a dishwasher. We called for an emergency plumber who came to replace the fitting at around 12:00AM He also set us up right to install the dishwasher successfully, and he was cheerful while he did it (despite the fact that we were less than cheerful ourselves!).

It went extremely well. Jim was very responsive and came up with alternatives to assist us in keeping the price reasonable. He and his crew arrived on the first day on time. His crew introduced themselves. Jim then described to them what needed to be done and outlined for me the time required to complete the work.
His team covered floor and items as they worked and were careful to keep the areas clean through out. They cleaned every thing at the end of each day and confirmed their next appointment and time frame.
The job was done in a timely manner and when we required additional assistance in understanding how the monitors worked and the remote control they came back immediately and explained it in more detail.

I've saved over 50% on my heating bill. They were in and out as promised. It was a good experience. The owner came out and seemed knowledgeable. The pricing was comparable. I trusted the guy and he kept to the timeframe. There were a few changes we ran into but he didn't charge me any extra. He kept to the price.

I wanted to install a heat pump hot water system to reduce heating oil consumption from using oil furnace to heat water. Mainely Plumbing was suggested by another plumbing concern as a company that had experience in heat pumps. I contacted Mainely Plumbing and they were very helpful in planning the new system. Their estimated price was reasonable so I

engaged them. They were prompt and efficient in the installation, and the work was criditable. However, I was disappointed because their bill contained several items that I didn't expect, including one item I had been led to believe was included in the original estimate, Since installation the system has workeed well to provide hot water, but my original expectations for reducesd oil consumption have not been met.

Not much to say. It was a very good experience from start to finish. A personable, competent plumber arrived quickly. The pricing policy was explained. I showed him the work that needed to be done. He gave me an estimate that I thought was fair. He proceeded to do the work and at one point needed to call in another person to help him. When he was done everything looked good and worked well.
