Less than 2 hours work including them leaving midway through.. They removed toilet found flange was bad, removed about 1 &1/2 x 1 & 1/2 ft tile. As they left to go get part estimate was $400. By then they knew what work was entailed. Replaced part (found old part in side lawn) replaced toilet. Went from 400 to 722 and change. Their reasoning was I don't know what overhead for plumbing costs. Found out $400 is high end for work they did. Don't recommend unless you get cost in writing.

The install was $17,800. The boilers failed in two years. Duell walked away from the problem and I had Jack Hall heating come. They sent photos to Navien and they would not warranty because it was installed improperly. Venting, cascading plumbing, and boiler pump size was incorrect. I have had to completely replace what was done.

Called about 10 AM. We were a new customer so the initial phone call got us set up on their records. We were scheduled for a tech visit between noon and 2 PM same day which was remarkable as other vendors either couldn't handle it until next day (Saturday) or Monday. Tech showed up at noon on the dot, determined the unit was not repairable and installed a replacement within about 45 minutes. Credit card billing was electronic with receipt in my email within the hour. Tech was professional and courteous.

They came promptly and made a great repair. The only problem is that I can not get a receipt as they are paper free. The first thing they sent was a face book logo when I opened it. I have made 2 requests after for it and have not received it.

Excellent work from the time I called needing some help to paying the bill. Everything went smoothly. I have used a few other plumbing and heating providers in the past and from now on Duell is #1. The responsive customer service and plumbing expertise is appreciated. Thank you PS: I didn't find them initially on Angie's list. Their name doesn't appear when I click on plumbing or heating or D under the alpha search. I was lucky to find them on another site (googled emergency plumbing). Please upgrade their status on Angie's list. I'm writing this review so others who use Angie's list know how good they are. You need to search for them under providers.

Flawless. Very professional, well done work. Showed up when scheduled, did work professionally, let the job site as clean as when they came and verified all their work before departing. Can't ask for any more than that.

This is a very professional and well-run business. Calls are returned promptly, workers are efficient, competent and respectful. Rick, Nate and Steve demonstrated their extensive knowledge and skill throughout the project. In particular, Steve was very helpful, answered all questions thoroughly and went out of his way to complete work in a timely fashion. I have no reservation recommending Duell Plumbing for small or extensive projects.

All went perfectly.  Kevin (with the correct replacement water heater)was here about 90 minutes after I called for the repair of a just discovered broken and leaking water heater in the basement.  The telephone receptionist was a delight as was the plumber/ service technician.  The job was completed neatly and professionally and within 3 hours of his arrival and I was totally satisfied with the work and the cleanup .I would be more than pleased to use their good services again.

On Dec16, 2015, I contacted Duell Plumbing and Heating. This company was referred to me by my local septic company. Initially, I was pleased they were able to come at such short notice to resolve a simple blockage on a toilet in the first floor bathroom. The high expense that was incurred included a $89 service call fee and a separate repair charge which ended up totaling approximately $182.00. I decided to go with this company on referral from my local septic company that had just finished a job earlier that day. When the company came out they did the work and I paid them the amount. I originally had asked the company if there was a senior discount and they replied that there was one. However, I was not given the discount at the time of the service. I then called and asked for the discount and a copy of the invoice of the work that was completed. They agreed to do so by return mail. When the information that I requested was not received over the next ten days I began recalling the company numerous times to only receive promises and no responses. As of Jan 7th, I have yet to receive and invoice or the senior discount I was promised. I was later told that I would only get half the senior discount I had anticipated. They also informed me that the senior discount only applies to the "repair" not the service call part of the invoice. I was disturbed when they informed me that this was typical across the "industry." I then took the initiative and began calling a dozen of plumbers that were listed in the phone book to get quotes on this service in my area. I later discovered that majority had no service charge to come to your home and that the estimate of the work that I had done would not have exceeded $125.00 in total. In addition, I would have received a 10-20% senior discount of the whole bill. In most cases, most companies offered free estimates which would have made my bill half of what I paid. BEWARE, CAREFULLY RESEARCH ANY SERVICES THAT YOU MAY REQUEST TO AVOID THESE UNFAIR SURCHARGES.

I recently bought a house in the Schenectady area. A couple of months later my son noticed that the first floor hall ceiling was wet and the paint was peeling. There is a bathroom on the floor above so it was apparently a leak of some kind.
I don't live in the area myself and I didn't know any plumbers to call. That's when I started subscribing to Angie's List. I found the listing for Duell Plumbing and Heating and saw that their customers had given them high ratings. So I called and made an appointment.
The plumber was scheduled to arrive sometime between 12:00 noon and 2:00 pm. He arrived promptly at noon. I pointed out the peeling paint on the hall ceiling and noted that a toilet was located directly overhead. At first the plumber was concerned that there was no way to confirm that the toilet was leaking without opening up the ceiling but then he felt a bit of water on the floor at the base of the toilet. He said it would take about an hour and cost approximately $300. The work actually took less than an hour. The plumber said there was very little wax left on the seal so it was not surprising that the toilet leaked.
The plumber actually stayed a few minutes longer so that I could consult with him on an odor problem with the first floor lavatory and he proposed a solution short of installing a vent (I learned that houses built in the 1950s didn't always have vented plumbing lines).
There has been no more dampness on the hall ceiling so I have to conclude that THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN FIXED!
I have no way of judging the cost of service but I assume it was the prevailing fee for this area.
I will definitely call Duell Plumbing and Heating the next time I need a plumber.

I had to shut off the main water valve in my home to replace a fixture with no branch valve.  While in the process of shutting the valve the stem of the gate valve failed and my water was mostly off but not enough to stop the water.  After panicking for a few hours and trying to address this myself I called Duell for the rescue (on a Saturday).  Tyler showed up, and struggled with the curb box due to its age.  We decided not to mess with the curb-box to prevent a catastrophic failure at the water main.  He then froze the pipe before the valve, replaced the now broken valve and had water service returned in an hour or so.  During the process he identified another fitting that was close to failure in the same area and recommended replacement to prevent further issues.  He had to come back during the week to fix that due to part availability but overall my main water service is much more reliable than it was previously.  Great service, very responsive, got the job done in a professional manner.  Would definitely hire again.  The price was steep, but it was ultimately my own fault for trusting a 80 year old gate valve on a Saturday.

I was very happy with the service Duell Plumbing provided. I called the office on Friday and the Tyler the technician was there on Monday at the time scheduled. He came in and assessed the conditions. He explained our current situation in detail and provided all our options. Once we decided to change the heater...Tyler proceeded with the work with very little interuption to our houshold. Upon completion, he cleaned up the entire area as he was never there.
Duell's pricing was approx 20% less then the their competitor's price. Their competitor gave me options to lower my bill by signing up for a very expensive maintenance agreement in which I declined.
This was my first experience with Duell and I felt very comfortable with them. I fully intend to call them again for any HVAC need in my house. I highly recommend Duell Plumbing for any heating or plumbing repairs.

I had phoned another plumbing company on the day of service early in the morning - Boyce and Drake. They were unprofessionally not responsive (didn't hear from them until the next afternoon!)

I then called Duell in the afternoon and explained that the bathtub/shower was so clogged it was unusable. They were able to schedule me in that day (although it was going to be after hours the small extra fee was worth it). The service person - Nathan - arrived about 6:45. Very nice, great service, very professional. Would definitely call them again for any plumbing or HVAC needs.

I called the company on a Sunday afternoon, after finding that our water heater had cracked at the bottom and was spewing water in our basement which was also seeping into our finished basement family room. Within an hour, they were at our door and took care of the water heater emptying it to make sure there would be no more water leaking, explained the options of replacement, and said he would return the next day to replace the appliance.
The next day the office called to let me know Nathan would be here earlier than expected, he showed up and within 2 hours everything was replaced and in perfect working order. I couldn't be happier with the service from this company and the courteous, professional treatment I have received from everyone I have dealt with! Such a pleasure and will definitely recommend them to my friends and family. Thanks for everything!

The receptionist was very pleasant, took my information and scheduled a service call. Tyler was assigned to my problem, he was actually able to come earlier, receptionist called and asked if it would be ok if he came earlier. I was available so this was great. Tyler listened to our symptoms, asked great questions, recommended we start with the simplest option, check to see if water was getting to the hot water heater. We found it was clogged with a tremendous amount of hard chunks of sediment. From there decided to just tap into an existing second water heater. The problem water heater was almost 40 yrs old, not really worth fixing. Overall I was very happy with the service provided, Tyler was thorough, neat and friendly.
