Poillucci Plumbing

Albeit, I didn’t hire them to fix my plumbing issue, I did find out that they were horribly overpriced. The quote that they provided me, on top of the $ 85 service call charge, for a leaking shower head was insane. $ 750 for the labor, not including the shower/​bath faucets.
Keep shopping around my friends as this isn’t the place to go.

I appreciate that they came out quickly. But because the owner was on another job, I wasn’t told what they’d charge to do the repair (for gas leaks in my line to the fireplace) until the end of the next day. They said it was cheaper to replace the line than to fix the leaks. They use an extruded pipe method so that it’s all one piece, which is very nice, but the price would be $ 1,100.00!!! Yikes! I got another plumber who gave me an estimate over the phone [I explained that Poillucci said there were several leaks] for less than $ 300.
Would have been nice if Poillucci would have offered a less expensive alternative. They also charge $ 85 for a service call.
UPDATE: I’ve changed my rating from 2 stars to 1 star and wish I could make it 0 stars! The Columbia Gas Company came out over the weekend and said there wasn’t any leak anywhere. I wasn’t going to take a chance, so the 2d plumber came this evening [the one prepared to fix the leaks for under $ 300], checked everything and said «that’s right. There are no leaks anywhere.» Just charged me $ 50 for driving over in the snow and zero degree weather.

We had a flooded basement (ew) with sewage (sorry TMI but it was super messy), these guys took our call at 8am on a Friday and were out in 10 mins. They quoted us on the phone and were honest and only charged what they quoted when they got there. Bill and Dave were friendly, professional, and paid special attention to respecting our property. We appreciated the quick service, knowledgable staff, and fair pricing. We would definitely use them again in the future.
Pros:
+responsive/​quick
+fair pricing/​affordable
+knowledgeable
Cons:
Can’t really think of anything!

Support your local business! Fast, efficient, affordable. Having just moved to Pittsburgh we are at a loss for home repairs. We had a plumbing problem that resulted in us calling Rotor Rooter– they were unable to fix the problem (a pretty bad clogged drain in an old house with cast iron plumbing) and gave us an estimate for thousands. We got a second opinion on from Poillucci, they came by, told us what was up, fixed it and the price tag was VERY reasonable and affordable. We may need to replace the plumbing in certain parts of the house eventually, and if/​when we do we will use these guys!
