Sicari Plumbing

Have a Takagi Tank Less water heater, called Takagi on Monday and was given three referrals. On Tuesday, called Sicari and had no one available able to work on Tank less. Later that day, they called back and said they had a cancellation and could come out Wednesday. $250 to come out and check out the unit. Agent was here an hour and had to contact factory for diagnosis. Parts are in Tennessee, had to pay shipping for overnight service to have the heater fixed on Thursday. Was promised a call but at 530pm I called them and had wait for a call back to see if the part arrived. It had but they were not coming out until sometime Friday.
The agent arrive with the part, was here 30 mins and charged another $310.00 to install. He did finally lower the cost to $280.00 plus $24.00 shipping. At a time when people are struggling and Sicari is allowed to keep working, it is a shame they choose to charge the maximum and not give an estimate ahead of time.

David, thank you for solving all of our hot water tank issues. You were the 6th person to look at it & you figured out the problem. You were terrific!

Had a blockage about a month ago and called Sicari. The person who arrived took a look around for about 30 minutes, said I didn't have a cleanout valve, and said various solutions would cost between $350 to $3500. I told him I'd have to contact my landlord before next steps.

I asked if there was a charge for looking he said probably not and to let him check with the boss. He came back in after a phone call with and charged me ~$180.

The next day, had another plumber come by that my landlord recommended. In under an hour, he found the cleanout valve, was able to fix the blockage, charged $150, and told me the first guy couldn't have really even tried.

Called on Sunday to have them come on Tuesday, they never came on Tuesday. Not very well organized, will never call them again.

These guys are great! They arrive on time and provide excellent quality workmanship at a completely fair price! I recommend them highly to get the job done right the first time!

The old bad regulator trick for $350.00 P&L. His guage showed 140 and was SHOCKED when I pulled out my gauge showing proper reading of 63. Most people will fall for the trick....The service call was for water heater issues in full coverage and they were rep in my zip code.

I should have asked for a quote beforehand but I asked them to come clear a stoppage in the bathtub at a rental house that I own. The tenant said that the plumber used a snake attached to a drill motor, made a mess and spent less than 30 minutes to clear the drain. He also said that we should change the drain plumbing for 400 and some dollars to avoid further problems. The charge for this call was $248. I think that this was excessive. I won't be calling Sicari again.

Update to previous review

It's been 6 years since I provided my last review on this company. Long story short, the water heater that was installed by Sicari less than 6 years ago already broke. I believe the average life of a water heater is about 8-12 years. Called a different company this time for the replacement just to be told the previous installation was done wrong. I'm not going to go into all the details; however, one example is the water softener - it was installed on the outtake rather than the intake. Another example is the pan that was installed underneath the water heater - it wasn't installed correctly so the water that was collected once the water heater started to leak not only drained all over the floor, it also drained in to the water heater itself. Don't know if these installation errors caused the water heater to go kaput after less than six years, but no matter what, I would expect any reputable company to properly install the equipment it sells.

Sicari Plumbing has been taking care of me since 1999 installing new or doing repair work on sinks, toilets, showers, dishwasher, pool equipment piping etc.. Top notch all the way around. They have been the only vendor I have ever engaged to work on my home for such a long period of time with such a consistent high level of service.
