It holds 4.7 stars from 157 Google ratings. A recent customer called about a drain issue, and Mike Sr. said it sounded like a clogged main pipe; the next morning the jetting equipment cleared it. Mike Sr. and Mike Jr. later installed a hot water heater and fixed old pipes and leaks for that customer. A recent customer said Mike replaced an old oil-fired water heater in one morning. A recent customer whose provider of 30 years let them down said Mike Sr. came out within hours and scheduled a next-morning water heater replacement for nearly $1,000 less than the old company quoted. A recent customer described a main sewer clog cleared with a jetter and camera after the snake was not doing the job. A 2026 customer said Mike repaired frozen pipes and the system in zero-degree weather, and the heat came back up. A 2024 customer said Mike and Lief found six gas leaks in a job that took a day and a half. A recent customer said one of the owners threatened to contact Building Services to pressure them into paying an invoice for work they believe was not completed. A 2025 customer said they were quoted $400 over the phone to replace a shower head and had another plumber do it for $90. A 2025 customer said the company sent an apprentice for a tub leak, charged $505.16 and never emailed the report requested for insurance. A 2023 customer said a $195 fee just to come out was never communicated when the appointment was made. Connecticut lists an active P1 plumbing licence, PLM.0279295-P1, held by A & L Plumbing Inc. **Strengths:** - Quick arrival — a recent customer said they came within an hour - Water heater replacement — a recent customer said it was done in one morning - Main line clearing — a recent customer said jetting cleared the clog **Concerns:** - Invoice dispute — a recent customer said an owner pressured them to pay - Phone quote — a 2025 customer was quoted $400 for a shower head - Trip fee — a 2023 customer said a $195 fee was not disclosed ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - Holds 4.7 stars from 157 Google ratings _(confidence: high)_ - [Google](https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=Al's%20Plumbing%20LLC&query_place_id=ChIJk6RQipgK6IkRylBT-iy0kaA) — “Google: 4.7★ from 157 ratings” - The company says it has been in business 75 years _(confidence: medium)_ - [Official Website](https://www.ctplumbingremodeling.com) — “Self-reported 75 years in business” - A recent customer said a clogged main pipe was cleared with jetting equipment _(confidence: high)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sCi9DQUlRQUNvZENodHljRjlvT25OSmMzSnpiMlZ2TjFGbmFEWm5TVmh3VEhKSmNHYxAB!2m1!1s0x0:0xa091b42cfa5350ca!3m1!1s2@1:CAIQACodChtycF9oOnNJc3Jzb2VvN1FnaDZnSVhwTHJJcGc%7C%7C?hl=en-US) — “5★ Called Al's Plumbing for a drain issue and Mike Sr. answered, I explained the issue and he immediately knew that it sounded like the main…” - A recent customer said Mike replaced an old oil-fired water heater in one morning _(confidence: high)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sCi9DQUlRQUNvZENodHljRjlvT25GNVEyMDNhSFJ2YjFGR1kwaE5hVkJMU1d0SWJsRRAB!2m1!1s0x0:0xa091b42cfa5350ca!3m1!1s2@1:CAIQACodChtycF9oOnF5Q203aHRvb1FGY0hNaVBLSWtIblE%7C%7C?hl=en-US) — “5★ Mike just replaced my old oil fired water heater.
