My husband's family used this company for years and living very near to them, my husband and I did too. We recently moved to Shaler and were not sure if we moved out of their service area or not. Long story short, we used another company with our home warranty company and were not happy. I called Christy, and Shawn came out to help. He was so professional in dealing with the home warranty representative over the phone with me, which I really appreciated. And, he was even kind and friendly with my dog, who thinks it's her job to be everyone's friend. ;) I'm so happy with the work completed in my bathroom, the service, and attention to detail. He cleaned up everything so well and took time to explain details to me. I learned so much from Shawn and am so grateful for his skills and knowledge and professionalism. Like I mentioned, my husband's family used this company for years and I won't even think about calling anyone else for our plumbing and heating needs.

We reached out to Christy Plumbing with a non-emergency repair. They were at our house and fixed the problem within 48 hours of calling them. They were courteous, considerate and efficient to get the job done. For these reasons, we'd hire Christy Plumbing again!

Couldn't be happier. Bob C. was a huge help. Very knowledgeable, kind, and willing to do what was needed to get the job done. We were also surprised with how cost effective they were. Great value, would highly recommend.

My experience with Christy Plumbing and Heating was excellent. I had a pinhole leak in a pipe in my basement. It wasn't too serious of a leak and they were able to get me on the schedule for the following day. They showed up on time, were able to diagnose the issue promptly, had the materials to fix it with them and took care of it. Charge was about $200 which I found to be entirely fair and reasonable. Most companies charge at least $100 just for the service call. They also looked at couple other random issues that I was having and made some adjustments to address those issues (all of which are much improved) at no charge to me. I highly recommend them and will definitely use them again should the need arise.

We are selling our house and buyers’ inspection said there was a clog at the house trap. As a large family, plus just hosted another family of 5 for a week, we didn’t believe there was a clog, however, agreed to hire a plumber as part of closing. Tim called a day early and said there was a cancellation and could he come for the appointment. We agreed and explained the situation. Over the phone he said, “I can come, but we often can’t get our cameras through cast iron pipes. I can’t guarantee after I come out, they’ll even get their cameras through” We agreed to have him come as we were under contract to but LOVED his honesty! He was WONDERFUL. Turns out he was right, no clog. But our bill was exactly what he stated, no lies for extra services, no hidden fees. Will definitely hire again!

I have had work done in the past by Christy Plumbing, and as usual, they deliver quality work, done right the first time. I value their willingness to make sure the customer is satisfied with the work. I have had hot water heaters installed, boilers repaired, and most recently toilet and faucet repairs. All work done professionally and reasonably priced. Thanks!

Not pleased, at all, with Christy. We had them out in October to deal with a backed up basement drain. Charged over $200 for materials and labor. 2 weeks later we had the same issue. When calling to discuss, we were told that the owner of the company would call us back in 1-2 days. Another week went by....no call from owner. Finally got them to come back out today, and it cost ANOTHER $222. This was (supposedly) with the cost of the eel being waived. Different plumber out today....his response, "well maybe the first guy wasn't as thorough". So, overall experience? First plumber may not have been thorough enough, according to the second plumber. "Owner will call you back today or tomorrow to discuss" translates to no phone call, at all, until I call again the next week. And, of course, no guarantee on clearing drains. So, if the first guy's lack of thoroughness resulted in the job not being done right, that's unfortunate for the customer. Makes me wonder if TODAY'S plumber was thorough enough, or if we'll have a problem again in 2 weeks. The best part? Their labor guarantee on the receipt reads, "The labor charge as recorded here relative to the equipment serviced as noted, is guaranteed for a period of 30 days". VERY disappointed, and will be sharing with friends and family.

We literally called Friday evening when our furnace stopped working. Bob called us back immediately, and was here first thing Saturday morning. Christy's also rescued us this summer when our air conditioner failed. They are our #1 choice for service & honesty.
