## The honest read

Tony Gideika Plumbing and Heating runs on volume — 677 ratings on both HomeAdvisor and Angi averaging 4.4 stars, with the same handful of names (Tony, Shawn, Sean, Steve) showing up again and again across the written reviews. The recent run is strong: eight reviews in the last six months, none negative, several praising same-day or next-day turnarounds — one customer got a clog fixed on a Sunday.

What people keep mentioning isn't just speed but explanation. In a May 2025 Angi review, a customer says Tony and Shawn 'explain each step of the project' and always pick up the phone; a September 2025 HomeAdvisor review credits a technician with walking a homeowner through why a plumbing problem occurred and offering a couple of ways to fix it. In an early-2025 review, a customer noted the crew showed up already stocked with parts for an old Symons Temptrol shower valve — the kind of preparedness that saves a second trip.

The complaints worth knowing are about cost and one contested repair. A recent review puts the price concern plainly — $350 for a 30-minute visit — and in an April 2025 review another customer said they liked the service but not the cost. More seriously, an April 2025 Angi review describes a furnace that stopped working after a technician handled a leaking pipe near it and touched some of its electronic components; the reviewer wasn't present for the work and says they don't fully trust the secondhand account, but the furnace reportedly worked before the visit and didn't after, even with repeated power cycling.

One note on the record itself: two directory scrapes of this Better Business Bureau profile show different grades, an A on one and an A+ on another — a discrepancy nothing here resolves.

This is a fit for someone who wants a plumber that answers the phone and explains the fix rather than the cheapest bid in town — just ask about pricing up front given the cost complaints on file, and get specifics if any work touches adjacent equipment like a furnace.

**Strengths:**
- Responsive scheduling — same-day fixes, even on a Sunday
- Explains the work — walks customers through problem and options
- Comes prepared — had parts on hand for an older valve model

**Concerns:**
- Pricing complaints — a few reviews cite high per-visit cost
- 2025 furnace complaint — reported non-functional after a pipe repair nearby

**Where sources disagree:**
- Two Better Business Bureau directory scrapes on this profile show different grades — A and A+ — an unresolved discrepancy.
