My husband and I have used Stahl a few times for plumbing repairs on our house and thought they were pretty decent. Recently our central air conditioner stopped turning on, so we called them to check it out. The repairman came and messed around with our digital thermostat, tightening wires & changing batteries, and kind of snarkily blamed us for the AC not turning on, as he thought our thermostat was hooked up incorrectly. We found this odd, as it had never been a problem in the three years weve had it, but shrugged it off. He told me he got the AC running, as he claimed it wasnt working due to not being hooked up correctly to the thermostat (weird?) then gave me the expected sales pitch to call them back when its warmer out (it was 45 degrees out that day) to give it a full routine check up. Its been pretty cold out during the past month, so we hadnt tried to turn it on again until the other day. Sure enough, my husband tried to turn the AC on and it wouldnt turn on at all, just the fan part. We think the repairman somehow confused the AC with the fan, when he told me he fixed the thermostat and got it working again. I called Stahl and told them what happened and the woman who answers the phone got really defensive and started yelling at me! I was very nice and calm when explaining the situation, so there was no need for this. Besides the whole issue with not doing the job properly and then not admitting to it, we dont do business with companies who are rude to us. They no longer will have our business for plumbing or HVAC.

On one of the coldest nights of the year, my furnace went out. The blower motor was making a weird noise and then shutting down. I called Stahl after normal business hours and left a message with their answering service. Got a call back about 30-minutes later. The woman on the phone was very up front about their after-hours labor rate and offered me the option to wait until normal business hours, but said that if it was an emergency she could have someone out "within a couple of hours". Since overnight temps were going to hit single digits, I decided it would be best to take care of the problem right away. About an hour later, the tech called to let me know that he was on his way. He was very friendly and personable, and clearly explained everything that he was doing with the furnace. He had the needed part on his truck and was able to get everything fixed in under an hour. For an after-hours, last-minute appointment I thought the total cost was very reasonable.

They were at my home 2 weeks ago. I have been using them off and on for about 15 years for furnace maintenance and plumbing repair. Buy I was completely displeased with the last service call. He came late and apparently he was hoping he was my last call and he rushed though the job would be an understatement. It was a quick fix but then I turned around he was already back in his truck writing up the receipt. He also managed to run over 3 of my neighbors garbage cans leaving 2 unusable. But he never told me. My neighbor works from home and when he finished working he knocked on my door. They did replace them but had a funky attitude about it. The cans were on the side of the driveway on a grassy knoll area and once he hit the one u would have thought he would back up and not just continue to run the remaining 2 over. Dont think I will be using them anytime soon.

Weve been dealing with a national plumbing chain over the past few months. We paid them to replace a belly in a pipe in our basement (Im certain this was needed). We had a second backup and they wanted us to replace a 25 length of pipe, which would have required jackhammering out our basement floor. When I asked them whether they could just clear it, they told me it wasnt possible with cast iron. Thats nuts. I had the local Stahl folks out (and I wish I knew the name of the plumber that was here) and they saved me a good $7000. They were able to pressure jet out the entire run of pipe and restore it to almost new appearance. They even fixed a leaky faucet thats been bothering me for years just because they were here. Great folks. Ill continue to go with them.

We just had a great experience with these plumbers. We ended up having to have our whole yard dug up to replace the water line from the street to the house. The men who did the work were quick, careful, and nice. They even helped me empty the mesh filter on our bathroom sink when it got filled with dirt (because when they replaced the line some dirt naturally gets in). They had to pour cement in our basement and it looks great. We actually had to leave town before the work was done and returned to it looking great. They even brought in a package that was left on our front porch while we were gone.

They installed a faulty part, ok that happens. The night we called about it and started asking questions the receptionist hung up. They called us back said theyd be at the house before 12 PM the next day. At 12:07 called and said he was on his way. At 1:50 I called to ask how much longer because I have work and the receptionist got an attitude and when I started giving her my address she yelled at me. 20 minutes later the repair man showed up. The repairman was nice and in and out as fast as he could since I told him I had to leave for work soon.

On the Friday before Christmas we realize our drain was backing up so I call Gillece and they said they could be here on the Tuesday after Christmas when the guy came he gave us an estimate of $11,000 to $15,000. I then called Stahls and spoke to Roger who told me not to sign anything. Stahls came out on Wednesday gave us an estimate and started the repair on Thursday and Friday, they will be back on Monday to put down the cement. Stahls came in at $5,000. My husband and I are very happy with Stahls. I will never call Gillece again.

Had Tom as my technician, he addressed the problem we had (a corroded valve to our fridges water dispenser) and fixed it in a very timely manner. As a member of a blue collar team, I appreciated that he was friendly and honest about the problem and how to fix it. The prices were a bit higher than I had expected, but for getting serviced on a holiday, I cant really complain too much. Would recommend them for basic plumbing/pipework needs.

We had a pipe issue right before a snowstorm and only Stahl had a plumber able to make it to us. In only 45 minutes, our drainage problem was fixed and we could dry out our house. John Duffy was our plumber and he explained the problem, took care of it quickly, and was very polite. We would highly recommend them for emergency plumbing.

I have been pleased with the service at Stahl’s for my plumbing and HVAC needs. My air conditioner stopped working and they recommended replacing the motor which did the trick. My AC is over ten years old and it was a great savings not having to purchase a new one. They have been reliable and honest with their repairs.
