Recommended Customer Reviews

I brought in Aire Mechanical for a second opinion about the current state of my furnace as well as a furnace servicing. What a complete difference from the first company!! Matt was a trustworthy fellow who gave solid advice and eased my concerns without even knowing what the first company had stated. And that first company quoted me $3,000 for repairs and reconstruction...AMI's service call was only $150.00 and my furnace is just fine...
Definitely go with Aire Mechanical and try to get Matt if you can.

It was so nice to wake up to heat this morning! Aire mechanical not only knew my need but took care of it in a timely manner! I would still be on the waiting list if I hadn't called aire mechanical! They are very affordable and quick! Thank you aire mechanical I finally have a place I can rely on, for me and my family!

Cornelius helped us out twice and both times efficiently, on time, and at a reasonable cost. He's now my first choice plumber.

Cornelius came out and unclogged our sink. Took him little time (less than 10 minutes) and he cleaned up after himself. He was polite and responsive and he didn't charge us anything as he said he didn't break a sweat. It was unbelievable and so refreshing for a company to have such integrity. It is rare. On top of that he was very nice! This is our plumbing company forever.

We had the pleasure to have Korco and Cornelius remove and install a new water heater at our house. Very responsive and showed up as promised. Cornelius replaced all gas lines and joints. He tested the unit and he tested our water quality. He removed and took away the old water heater. He gave us a tutorial on how to maintain this new unit. The new water heater is a better quality than Home Depot in that it is made in the USA and is made with better steel. This unit is easier to get replacement parts.
Next project is a new water softener that is tailored to the water test results we have from our HOA water well.
We highly recommend Korco and Cornelius. They will be our plumbing solutions in the future.

We discovered an unexpected leak from the pipe feeding the washing machine on a Sun afternoon that needed to be addressed ASAP. After scrambling to find a plumber who was open on weekends, we reached out to Cornelius. He was communicative and courteous. Will definitely keep his name and number on hand for any future plumbing issues.

Cornelius is the best! Honest, dependable and they do excellent work. So, you say you have to pay a premium for such excellent work? NOPE! I checked Home Depot and Lowes and got my premium hot water heater installed for HUNDREDS less WITH another year more of extended warranty. Outstanding products, outstanding installation, outstanding service!!!
Don't overpay for mediocre service. Cornelius, you are the absolute greatest! You are the FIRST and ONLY plumber I am ever going to call!!

We came home from Vacation to a leak in our kitchen. At Neighborhood recommendation called Cornelius and had a wonderful experience. He came immediately, and shut off water. Recommended leak detection who also came over fast. Cornelius then came back in the evening and spend about three hours fixing our leak. The leak was under our Kitchen Island and not easy to reach. By that night leak was fixed and water was back on. Cornelius and his partner were great to work with and kept us informed all through process. Also came in right on budget. Highly recommend.

As a local read Realtor we have various experiences with plumbers. I have found Korco and Cornelius (owner) the most cost effective an honest plumber I have come across.
At my personal residence we had an issue with our shower and had three different estimates. We are so pleased to have found Korco Plumbing. The repairs were having to remove the shower wall to get to the plumbing. The repair and clean up with seamless. Thank you Cornelius for your professionalism.
I would recommend your services to my clients with confidence.
Warmly,

Cornelius showed up right on time and did a great job sprucing up my Master cool to prepare for the summer months! He communicated with me prior via text and gave me the details on his service and a quote. He also pointed out some other things around my house that are potential plumbing projects for the future! I will only use Cornelius in the future for all my pluming needs!
