About us

We've called Albany its home for close to 100 years! We know this town, its people and its homes. We are unique -an older community with specific needs when it comes to heating and cooling. We appreciate the tradition and history of Albany’s older homes. But just because our residences come from the era of the model T, doesn’t mean they have to run like one. Over time, we have become the experts in making sure an older home is running at peak efficiency when it comes to energy consumption. In order to properly diagnose your home’s needs, Farrell Brothers needs to look at its infrastructure, its duct work and air flow, insulation, windows and doors. All these things come into play when heating and cooling an older home. The biggest and best piece of equipment doesn’t always serve an Albany residence in the same way it would a brand new home.

Explained all the future possibilities of the life of the unit and the replacement of an A/C unit later. Also looked at the heating unit and confirmed information that we already new. Even offered to look at the plumbing while they were out at the house. I felt very confident in the advice they offered.

Response from BENJAMIN FRANKLIN PLUMBING
"I agree with your frustrations but unfortunately there are over 50 different tub spout combinations so it is difficult to have all of them on the truck but there would not be another trip charge for any circumstances like that just so you and any other members that are reading this review are aware of policy - I spoke to my technicians about this case also so now we are all on the same page!! Thank you for your review. Randy"

Another service provider (not a plumber) told me it appeared one of my pipes was leaking. He thought all the pipes might be damaged due to rusting. After researching Angie's List, I called Farrell Brothers and I am so glad I did! Brian arrived right on time, examined the plumbing, and assured me everything was fine. He was very nice and courteous and explained that while there was some rusting, it was minimal. I am a widow and know nothing about plumbing. Farrell Bros could have told me all or some of the pipes had to be replaced. Instead, the company chose to be honest and walk away with a $49 payment. Farrell Brothers is now my forever plumbing company and I will recommend them to everyone I know.
