They thought this company was extremely reasonable. They were pleased with the amount of money, quick response and the person who came out. I will hire this company for my clients again in the future.

The entire experience with ONeill's was outstanding. The person who scheduled the appointment was great, and the plumber could not have been more professional and respectful. I recommend ONeills for all your plumbing needs.

O'Neill's came out to fix a problem of a leak in the pipes from the kitchen disposal. Another company had come out to previously fix the leak and we ended up replacing the disposal (which needed replacing) and pipes. A short time later the leak returned (the other company was notified in writing and the only thing we received was a coupon for future service) so we tried tightening the rings but couldn't. O'Neill's came out and explained what needed to be done and why and completed the work very efficiently. Thanks Ken. He replaced the metal pipes with plastic (which should have been used in the beginning) so should we ever have a problem we can fix it ourselves. He explained that when the kitchen had been remodeled the company that did it never repiped for the deep sink that was installed and that we ended up with a reverse trap which was causing our problems. He also told us what it would take to alleviate the problem entirely. The other company also explained this but they said it would be more extensive and more expensive to fix. We will look in to this in the future and definitely go back to O'Neill's. The overall price for this fix would have been a little bit more but we were able to use a coupon that was available on their website.
Description of Work: Replaced metal piping with plastic piping from the kitchen disposal unit to the main line in the wall.

For the toilet issue they removed them from the floor, checked everything out and made sure the sewage line wasn't backed up to the streets, replaced a few parts and they were just great. He was here for a decent amount of time. They honored a coupon that was off their web site that wasn't necessarily specific to this work but he felt like it was the right thing to do. They did the same thing with a coupon for the previous times. Both times I was amazed with what I ended up paying.
Description of Work: O'Neill Plumbing cleared a clogged shower drain, I wasn't sure if it was connected to the previous issue with backed up toilets. I used them twice recently.

I needed to have my main clean-out cleared, due to laundry water bubbling up in my kitchen sink. The complication was that the (outdoor) plug had been painted shut for over 25 years. John cut off enough of the pipe to extract the plug, cleared the pipe, then put in a new pvc plug. He also checked under the house to make sure he had not caused any leaks in my old pipes. Now everything is draining as it should. John was very polite, friendly, and professional. My only tiny complaint is that I had requested a 9 am appointment and he arrived at 8am. I guess that's their standard start time for the day and he had not gotten the message to come at 9. They have a $30 off coupon for Angie's List users, so I only paid $73 plus tax for what would otherwise have been a $103 + tax job. Overall, I was very pleased and would use O'Neill Plumbing again in a heartbeat.
Description of Work: Access and clear outdoor main plumbing clean-out, cut out old plug and replace with new pvc plug; check crawl space for leaks.

Called O'Neill because they have done good work for me before. Peter Butzerin came out and explained what was wrong - and also provided a number of other helpful tips about shutting the water off, best materials to use, correct installation of new stuff, and so on -- I always appreciate it when someone explains these things! He got the work done quickly and I have had no issues since -- I really do think these guys know their stuff and though I know it's costly to have work done I do have the confidence things are done right.

The leak leading to the downstairs was not caught by O'Neill in their original estimate, however I decided to go with O'Neill instead. They arrived on time, were polite - even with me watching them and actually ate lunch at the house instead of taking an extra hour or so to go out to eat. I was very pleased with the job. I had to call them back out due to one pipe had not been tightened enough, but they were right back out the day after I called. Professional job, would use again and recommend.

Description of Work: Older 1942 home with all original pipes entirely repiped by O'Neill. They were punctual, friendly, clean and fast! We price checked a few places and found O'Neill's was honest & fair in their pricing. When we discovered a week later that our ice machine hadn't been hooked up to the new piping, they came out immediately the next day and took care of it within a matter of 10 minutes.

At approx. 48 feet and than another one at 60 feet. He couldn't get trough with the 3" blade at first so he tried with a smaller one to penetrate, and than followed with the wider one again. Finally we cleared, He tried to stay within an hour, but because he had to switch blades twice and finally go 100 feet, he logged 1.5 hours.
Description of Work: I had a backup in my 1909 build house. Great service and dedication to clear the clogged sewer drain. There is a 30 day guarantee, just in case the sewer drain clogs up again.

From the start, they did a professional job. They were in the middle of the pack for pricing. But they did a super job of trying to do the least amount of changes to existing dry wall and ceilings. They did a very professional job. They were flexible and super to work with. I would have them do additional plumbing jobs.

excavators, plumbing, drain pipe

Overall, we are very pleased with O'Neill's work. The highlight of their efforts was the exterior excavation; the crew who worked in our yard was very friendly, professional and highly skilled. They had to dig down more than 10 feet to locate the sewer stub, but they shored and marked the excavation so it was safe and secure for neighbors and their pets. They were able to save the majority of our plants and replanted them after the whole was refilled. We think the yard looks better than it did before! Inside, the results were also good, but only after a frustrating number of modifications and repeat visits by their plumber. Here are a couple of examples: when we had a low-flow issue in our water lines (that turned out to be caused by not completely turning on the water main, not by debris in the lines as they originally thought) one of their less experienced plumbers took apart our kitchen faucet and was unable to restore it to a working condition; initially, they said that this was due to the low quality of our faucet and told us that we could buy a new faucet and they would be gracious enough to install it for free (!). We pushed back and said that, regardless of the faucet's quality, they had unnecessarily taken apart our working faucet and caused it to cease to function, so we should not have to pay for any part of that replacement. We eventually compromised and they gave us a lesser faucet (Ours had a sprayer; the new one does not.). On a project this size, the faucet is a small matter and the rest of the project appeared to be high-quality, but we were surprised that O'Neill was not willing to stand behind their plumber's work in this case. After some wrangling, O'Neill resolved another of our concerns, too. Again, it was a small but significant detail of a big project that went very smoothly. We told them originally that we were not particular about where the floor drain was placed and would accept their recommendation; the location they chose ended up causing a very shallow pipe placement that would lead to cracking of the concrete floor above it. When we complained, they remedied the situation, but we would have preferred to avoid their additional work and our extra follow-up by just having them anticipate that issue and choose a different floor drain location in the first place. Basically, O'Neill does excellent work. Our major frustration with the project was a lack of communication; the person who bid on the project (and heard the details of what we wanted) went on vacation and did not completely inform the people who began the work the next week. Even after he did return, he did not closely supervise the project to ensure it was what we requested. We were glad that one of us was able to remain at home through the entire job to ask questions and make sure that they did what we agreed, because often that was not the default (although when we brought a concern to their attention, it was promptly remedied). It was also difficult to reach our job contact; he did not consistently return phone calls. At one point, I had an urgent concern and I had to call his boss before I heard back from him, something I really hate doing! Now that the project is done, we are glad we used a plumber as professional and experienced as O'Neill, but we are also relieved that we were on hand to supervise their work and confirm it went as we expected.

The main water line from the street to the house broke. We dug the trench and replace the pipe, however we had a very difficult time completing the connections. O'Neil came out the next morning promptly at 8 - I didn't feel so bad later when I found the employee had some problems also. It took 3 hours which included modifying one of the connections a bit and a different connector. One problem was that the original pipe was very flexible and easy to use (one reason it started to leak). The new, improved pipe had a higher pressure rating so it was thicker and harder to manipulate at the connector. O'Neil did a good job and the company did a follow up call to confirm everything was ok. I thought it was a bit expensive but I suspect the hourly rate is close to standard in the industry.
Description of Work: O'Neil plumbing came out to complete our main water line connections. The pipe had already been laid so the request was to connect both ends (water main / house) which I was not able to finish.

The plumber from O'Neill Plumbing Co. who gave me a quote spent enough time with me so that I understood what services would be performed and the cost. He considered several options, including one that would solve the problem but would likely cost less, and ultimately, that was the option we chose. He (Ken ) and his colleague (John) were all business, getting the job done ahead of schedule and therefore under budget. They took care to protect my carpet and flooring and they cleaned up after themselves. I'd hire them back without hesitation.

Went great. John was very efficient and cleared everything in less than 1/2 hour and with some time left took a look at my water heater. I got O'Neill's $95.00/first half hour rate and my $30 Angie's list discount. It was a tough clog because I tried to clear it myself removing some pipes and using a manual snake. I wish I had called O'Neill earlier and saved myself the time, I've worked with this company before and would work with them again.

I was afraid of leakage because I live in a condo. They left the extra caulking for me if would need it in the future. They are very honest, kind, and I never feel uncomfortable having them in my home. The gentleman that came, John, in is my favorite--he is so kind, and even showed me where my hot water heater is, including how to turn it off. He also showed me how to find out when you need a new one.

We had backed up drains in both our bathrooms. This was on a weekend. The plumber came promptly. He was able to figure out what the problem was. He was able to snake out the drain through outside access without disassembling fixtures. He finished the job in within the one hour minimum charge. He explained why we had the problem and what to look for in the future, as well as describing some long-term remediation options.
Description of Work: He snaked out the drain. The most likely cause was roots in the pipe near the street.
