## The honest read

FC Waterworks holds 5 stars from 72 Google ratings. A recent customer with leaking water pipes in an old house said owner Maverick Taramelli quickly determined the locations and extent of the pipes needing replacement.

A recent customer said Maverick took care of their sump pumps and fixed a few extra things while at the house. A recent customer thanked the company for fixing a toilet and said Maverick was on time, tidy and professional. A recent customer said Maverick came to help with an emergency repair on a Sunday.

A 2026 customer said Maverick showed up within 35 minutes for an emergency call about a pinhole leak in a basement hot water pipe, fixed it, and made sure the boiler and burner were working before he left. A 2026 customer said they called him with a leak at 1am during a storm, and he answered right away, FaceTimed to see the situation and talked them through what to do at zero charge. A 2026 customer said they could pay for the job on site rather than wait for an invoice.

A 2025 customer who converted a garage in Hamden into a full bath, laundry room and closet said Mav did the plumbing, running pipe and water lines for a full shower, sink, toilet and laundry hook-ups. A 2025 customer said he had installed 2 gas fireplaces, a water heater and a complete water filtering system for their house. A 2025 customer with no heat or hot water said the company set up an appointment that same day and Maverick fixed the problem. A 2025 customer said two HVAC companies had tried to service or repair their system before Maverick resolved the issues and treated the root of the problem.

A 2025 customer facing a major drain issue called the cost a blow, while saying the problem had to be addressed. A 2024 customer said they were charged $1,845.45 after Roto-Rooter had estimated $5,000 for half of that work.

**Strengths:**
- Emergency response — a 2026 customer said he arrived within 35 minutes
- Late-night guidance — a 2026 customer said he talked them through a 1am leak
- Garage-to-bath plumbing — a 2025 customer said Mav ran new water lines
- Sunday emergency repair — a recent customer said Maverick came on a Sunday

**Concerns:**
- Drain repair cost — a 2025 customer called the cost a blow
