It carries 4 stars from 53 Google ratings and 4.6 stars from 34 Angi ratings, and the Better Business Bureau grades it A+. A recent customer said the company came out on a Saturday for a ruptured pipe, arrived within an hour, made the repair and turned the water back on. A recent customer wrote that a technician removed a screw from a shower fixture, after which the ceramic handle fell and shattered on the marble; that customer said management's account later differed from what the technician said at the time, and that they are seeking recovery for the damage through formal channels. A 2025 customer whose shop had no heat said the technicians came over in a hurry with the parts needed, got the heat running and left the boiler room cleaner than before. A 2022 customer described a Christmas Day call for a blocked home: J. Mulvaney walked them through initial steps and sent a plumber, David, who stayed until the problem was resolved. A 2022 customer said the company redesigned pipes to accommodate a water filtration system. A 2014 Angi reviewer said the company replaced an old pressure tank and well pump with a constant-pressure pump, a water softener and a filtration system. A 2024 customer said the company replaced a gray water pump while they were away, with no estimate and no call first, billed $2,400, and that the bathtub was backing up again two weeks later. A 2024 customer complained of being charged for 1.5 hours for less than an hour of work. A 2022 customer said the company replaced a valve for $600 on a leaking water heater it had installed in 2020, then said the water heater was the problem after the basement flooded. A 2015 Angi reviewer said the company spent hours without finding a well and billed $450 for the time. Connecticut lists an active P1 plumbing licence, PLM.0203763-P1, and an active S1 heating and cooling contractor licence, HTG.0303757-S1, both held by Joseph P Mulvaney.
We had an extremely concerning experience with Mulvaney. During a service visit, the technician removed a screw from our shower fixture, after which the ceramic handle/lever fell and shattered on the marble. The technician acknowledged the incident while in our home and advised that multiple components would require replacement. Management—despite never visiting our home, inspecting the shower, examining the damaged components, or witnessing the incident—subsequently provided an account that was materially inconsistent with what occurred and with what the technician told us at the time. We have repeatedly requested clear documentation and information so this matter can be resolved appropriately. Instead, we have encountered an aggressive and defensive response from management, and we are now having to seek recovery for the damage through formal channels. Based on our experience, I cannot recommend this company. I would strongly encourage customers to photograph and document everything before any work begins and to obtain all findings and representations in writing.
