We had Wm J Riley replace a boiler in our home. The price quoted was good and all work was performed on time and as promised. My only complaint, which I've seen on a lot of other reviews, was that scheduling was not well organized. I had to call back multiple times and had 2 people come out weeks apart to give me a quote because the first review was apparently lost. Luckily I was not in a rush, so I had no problem waiting. The work was high quality and professional, so I would definitely use them again.

I was so pleased with how knowledgeable and professional the plumbers were. They replaced my kitchen faucet and repaired my bathroom faucet in about 1 and 1/2 hours and the price was very fair :) Also, they were able to manage the water booster I have to shut off the water (which I was not knowledgeable about). They educated me on my water system and maintenance needs. I would highly recommend Riley Plumbing to anyone who needs plumbing work in thier home.

The CO2 Detector for the finance malfunctioned. Dave and with a CO2 tester and a new hardwired detector. The testing was completed and the installation was done in less than 30 minutes. Everything was tested and the peace of mind is worth the 200 the service call cost

They were the only plumber to call me back and even came the same day to fix a leaky saddle valve to my refrigerator water line. Highly recommend! Service: Plumbing leak repair

Very poor customer service, whoever they have working in their office answering phones needs a day off. Jaded, rude and burntout are adjectives that come to mind. Do yourself a favor go elsewhere.

David arrived with a helper to fix and tweak my oil burner. Great Guy, knowledgeable, efficient, insightful, honest, professional. Can I say more? These guys were awesome, what appeared to be a disaster turned out well, everything was fixed quickly and efficiently.
