Recommended Customer Reviews
Holly M.In the sewer line protection program through Peoples, who have only sent Poillucci Plumbing to my aid on multiple occasions over the past few years. Friendly, professional service at all points of contact and every time. Very attentive to call & efficient. They're great! Highly recommended.
Contracted by Peoples Protection services to replace the water service line due to a leak. Workers arrived promptly and completed the required repairs in less than half a day. Cleaned up everything, including hosing down the muddy street. Only needed to dig a trench roughly 6 feet by 3 feet and pulled the new copper tubing underground while pulling out the old tubing.
Would use again if needed.
Ted R.We've used Poillucci Plumbing for years and had a great time experience every time. They are professional, experienced and honest. This company is top notch and we will continue to use them in the future. Nick thanks again for squeezing us in in such short notice. Great local business!
They charge $85 just to get a quote. I live one block away from the location. Decided not to move forward, wish their pricing/process was better.
We've had poillucci plumbing as our plumbers for years. They are the best! Honest, Fair, Highly Competent and Trustworthy! You won't find a better company in Pittsburgh.
Joelina B.The plumber was so disrespectful and extremely rude. I work in customer service and nobody should ever degrade someone and converse with someone the way the owner talked to me.
This was the second time Polucci Plumbing came to fix my water line as well. When fixing it the second time, one of the workers said how they remembered seeing seeing a huge brick near the waterline the last time which he insinuated that that may have been part of the line breaking right next to the brick for the second time.
Additionally, the line was repaired and the water was turned on. However, I was not getting any water. I had to call Polucci to come back out since nobody had asked the residents to check to make sure the water was running properly.
When he returned the next day and ""fixed"" the issue; I was only getting a trickle of water. I called the plumber back as soon as he left and he had an appalling demeanor and said he had to ""go to work."" I replied, ""this is your job and what you were hired to do."" He asked if I took off my shower head to see if there was any debris behind it, which I had not done, because I would not know to do that since I am not the plumber.
My water pressure was great prior to Polucci Plumbing ""fixing my line"" (there was a leak from the yard; Therefore, this did not effect the actual water pressure in my home, prior to Polucci coming out).
Furthermore, the water pressure is still low and trickling in the shower. I am so displeased with this whole experience, especially when someone is getting paid to do their job and do it correctly in a professional manner.
I would NEVER recommend this company to anyone.
Poillucci is ok but would not recommend, they are in network with home warranty and were dispatched for 2 separate services about 1 yr apart. 1st was hot water tank replacement - Waited 6hrs after my request was dispatched to service provider & I had to reach out to them to schedule & had to wait 2 days for service. Hot water tank leaked after installed was given a hard time about getting someone out to check out and had to make 2 more service calls finally 3rd tech that came replaced defective pressure relief valve on new tank. 2nd service was for sewage backup in basement again had to make initial contact to verify received dispatch from home warranty company and again was given a service appt 2 days out said too busy with bigger jobs -- when asked if anyway to get something sooner due to raw sewage was told I should contact warranty company to see if another provider could come out. Checked Angie's list and had several plumbers in area that could come same day problem resolved that evening. Also filing complaint with home warranty service.
Baxter C.Poillucci plumbing gets a solid 5 STARS! We needed new gas lines, and we wanted the job done right, the first time around. They came in like a plumber-SWAT team and handled it.
Another time, we had an emergency when the pilot light of the furnace that heats the radiators blew out. It's an old furnace, and I couldn't figure out where stuff was. So I called Poillucci plumbing, and he showed up in TEN MINUTES. He was super pro, and explained what probably caused it to go out.
I'm truly baffled by these poor reviews, because these guys do AMAZING work. Plus, the owner of the company actually has the guts to respond to negative reviews. He clearly stands by his work-- something you don't see much these days. HIGHLY RECOMMEND
Twofor F.Well, I tried to hire them for a big tough job at my house. Right off the bat, the gruff lady explains their rules, and how they operate. They charge to come out and give the estimate (2 other plumbers did the same inspection for at no charge). I don't why, but I agreed. Anyway, it took 3 weeks to get the price (I was told a different story by the same lady every time I called), and their price for a multiple thousand dollar job was DOUBLE the next highest price. Drive by their office in Lawrenceville, they got several Angie's List awards. I haven't a clue why.
These are the most incompetent and rudest contractors I have ever dealt with.
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.
