They were a great business and people to deal with. Bill the plumber came to my house when scheduled and took time to diagnose the location and nature of my leak. It was not apparent on the first visit so he only did the pipe and shut off valve repairs. This was good because after leaving the water on for nearly a day the leak did reappear. I called the office and Bill came back out quickly. As he continued to diagnose and locate the leak he spoke with the owner Nick who happened to be nearby and stopped in. They used the snake-like camera to look at various areas including cutting a hole in the living room ceiling. And, bingo!, the leak was right there and visible. After that, they proceeded to replace the leaking portion of the pipe and the length showing visible signs of corrosion. Thanks to the careful diagnose I avoided a much bigger repair. I am grateful for their prompt response to my problem and clean up. They were a pleasure to deal with.

Response from Poillucci Plumbing
"Dear Sir, We did perform plumbing work under your Protection Plan. We excavated, installed a new water line and restored water service all in the same day. We returned the next day to backfill and clean the job site. We explained to you that after the ground settles, you would be need some topsoil and grass seed because of the 7ft deep and 30ft long excavation. You also have the ability to purchase concrete and landscaping restoration under the protection plan. I wish you would have called our office so we could have re-explained our role in the protection plan process to install your new water line."

Could not have been more pleased with the service received. Excellent communication and customer service. Poillucci was dispatched to us from our home warranty program. We received a prompt call from the office to schedule our service appointment. Prior to the visit the office called and explained what items were not covered by our warranty and what our cost would be if those items needed repaired - this was awesome customer service - no surprise bills or charges. The crew that arrived was on time and did all the work they were supposed to - they reviewed what they were going to do before work began and reviewed what they did after. They cleaned up and no items were left behind. Would definitely call for future plumbing needs and will be recommending to our family and friends. Fee paid was our warranty deductible.

I don't typically leave responses for businesses but this was dishonest at best. In October of 2017 a friend had referenced me to Poilucci Plumbing as they had some residential work done by them. We were in the process of trying to purchase a commercial property and wanted to get a quote to replace the main valve. The cost was $120 to come out but they said if we wanted to have any of the work done the money would come off of the price of the work. While being at the property for all of 20 minutes the guy tells me he would quote out all of the work he could see needed to be done then we could choose what work we wanted done after the fact. Due to an estate sale situation we weren't able to purchase the building until 2018 and now Poillucci is saying they would only honor the $120 on doing ALL of the work even when we only wanted them to replace a valve. I would of never paid $120 to get a quote done had I thought I'd never see that money again. Very disappointed and would not recommend them.
Response from Poillucci Plumbing
"Dear Sir, I'm the owner and came to inspect the commercial property you wanted to purchase. I pulled the original paperwork from my visit to the property. You sent over your inspection report and asked for an estimate on the plumbing items. We explained the charge to come to the property, inspect what needed addressed from the report and give you an estimate on the repairs to get water back on to the property(it was more than a main water valve). We gave you the estimate to share with the seller to help with the purchase of the property. The estimate had one price for all of the work and I told you I would take the $120 off of the price for all of the work. We were honest from the very beginning of the process. Most importantly, we were still willing to honor our estimate even though it is a year later because it was tied up in the estate sale."

1- they were cursing while working. Good thing there were no children around. 2- they over charged me for a tank. It is $40 at home depot and they made me pay $210 which is ridiculous since i paid them $100 already for labor and replacing the tank takes 2 minutes. 3- when they were replacing my water heater they destroyed my shower then tried to scam me when I called them back to fix what they destroyed. They spent an hour or so trying to unscrew a faucet (what kind of plumber cannot unscrew a faucet?). Then they pretended they couldn't unscrew it and claimed that they would have to break it and replace it with a new one, which would cost me $720 which is not covered under my warranty. (This faucet is only $30 or so at Lowes) Of course i refused. Later I tried to unscrew it myself and it took me 1 second or so which proves that they were pretending in order to scam me. I FIXED THE SHOWER THEY DESTROYED FOR ZERO DOLLARS and I have never done any plumbing in my life. That is how bad those scammers are. I will post a YouTube video soon showing the faucet and how easy it is to do it and to warn people about this company. I spent three days without taking a shower because of them. I was so furious. I am going to warn everyone in the neighborhood on out neighborhood website. I don't want any one to deal with what I had to deal with.

"Dear Angie's List Customer, We wish you would have called our office so we could explain how your home warranty works. You never mentioned these concerns when we talked to you or were at your home. We came to your home under you HW. We completed the following items that were covered for your $100.00 deductible: 1. lifted and reset your toilet with new wax ring, bolts and supply line 2. supplied and installed a 40 gallon hot water heater Then, you needed an expansion tank. Unfortunately, your policy didn't cover your expansion tank. You mentioned a price from a big box store. We don't buy our material from big box stores. The expansion tanks we install come with a longer warranty. Next, the installation of your water heater would not damage your 2nd floor shower faucet. If that were the case, all of your faucets would have had problems. We did come to your house a 2nd time to look at the shower faucet at no charge to you. We tried to fix the handle as a courtesy but it was corroded and not working properly(if you had faucet coverage on your policy we would have replaced it). If our plumbers would have broke the handle then we would be responsible for replacement at our expense. We gave you an estimate to replace the shower faucet. An estimate does not mean you paid that or were required to use us to replace your faucet. Last, we never heard about the cursing until we read this review. If there was a problem you should have called the office immediately. We are sorry you are so upset. We followed the guidelines of your HW and there was work not covered under your policy. If we don't follow the guidelines of the HW they consider it insurance fraud. We gave you an estimate which you declined but we did not scam you. We hope you addressed your concerns."

My landlord uses them. They are terrific. They have an A+ rating. I recommended them to the landlord, he uses them and so does his son.  I don't know the cost, I didn't pay for it. I do know they were very reasonable. They are the plumbers for the house. The plumbing part was going to be a real problem, their price was $4000.00 less than everyone else.  And they did a superb job.

So far, seems to have went well. Could have done a better job, cleaning up mud all over my basement and garage floors.

Poillucci dispatched Bob, the plumber and Dave, the apprentice within two days. Accurate diagnosis (or confirmation of my initial diagnosis), thorough explanation of the problem and a price quote from the boss Nick later that day. Bill the plumber and Dave the apprentice returned and completed the shower assembly, new stems & new handles. Good quality materials, excellent craftsmanship. The new access panel was perfect and super smooth. They even cleaned up after themselves as if ready for a photo shoot. Legal, good plumbing is NOT cheap in Pittsburgh. This was affordable but what really stood out was the quality. Two days later, Nick the owner called to follow up to see if I was pleased with service. I was thrilled and told him as much. What a great bunch of smart, hardworking people he has working for him. Like attracts like. I received paid invoices in the mail later that week. Highly recommend.

They returned my phone call promptly, worked with me to find a time that I could be home to meet them, arrived on time, looked at the pipe that needed to be repaired, called into their office to get a quote, and made the repair.  They were polite, efficient, and did good work. They also gave me some tips about how to clear slow drains.  This was our third time using them, and every time we have been pleased.  What a pleasure to work with such a competent company!

"Dear Angie's List Member, We are glad to hear that you were satisfied with the work we completed. When you called us, you said you were referred by another person. A few days after the job was completed, you called the office to ask for the discount. If we knew you were a member when you initially called us we would have explained that sewer lining is not eligible for the discount before we started your job. Our advertisement was done before we had the equipment and training for sewer lining. We are sorry for the confusion."

They were there right on time! They took special care when walking on newly finished hardwood floors to get to the job. We reviewed work order and I left for work. I returned about 6 hours later and was THRILLED with the neat job that they did! The solder joints were neat; the new copper lines and valves were straight and looked great! The job was done professionally and the price was very fair.

Purchased a deal to have the water heater flushed at our home.  The company called the same day to schedule an appointment and came the next morning.  The worker was very friendly and explained everything as he went along.  I would recommend this company!

It turned out good. There were no additional charges beyond the big deal amount. They just tried to get me to do a whole lot more services that I wasn't really interested in.
