3 starsContacted Varsity Plumbing, **********, to correct a leak in a drain pipe. Easy to schedule an appointment. The plumber arrived saw the problem unscrewed 2 fittings applied what looked like a blue colored grease and retightened the 2 fittings. This took about 35 minutes. After the work was done I was presented with the bill, over $400 inc tax. Had I been told how much this would cost before the work was done I would have refused and do the work myself. I live in a condo community of 280 residences I would not recommend Varsity to any of my neighbors and advise then to check other companies for a better price. $400 for 35 minutes time and no parts is excessive.Varsity Plumbing & Heating, Inc.

1 starVarsity Home Service - absolutely would never recommend! Had a $8 tailpiece replaced on my drain under my kitchen sink which took 15 minutes and they charged us $468 - and that was WITH a 10% contract fee discount! Complete price gouging and absolute robbery! The fact that they can justify that is ludacris!Varsity Plumbing & Heating, Inc.

We are sorry to hear this perspective. As a trusted, family-owned and operated company of more than 60 years, please know we take all customer concerns very seriously and very personally. We can assure you that we would not be in business for more than six decades if we had any intent to overcharge. Rather, we are dedicated to providing top quality home repair and installation services by using the best materials and equipment in the industry and providing top-notch workmanship on every job. We may not always be able to offer the lowest cost, but we will always do a great job at a fair price and stand behind our work. This is also why it is our policy to provide upfront pricing requiring homeowner approval prior to performing any work to ensure there are no surprises. However we are humans who understand that home service repairs can be an unwelcome expense! As you know, upon hearing of your concerns, our management team made every effort to reach a fair resolution. While we respectfully disagree with these claims and positions stated above and tried to resolve this issue with you already, your satisfaction is important to us! Please feel free to reach our customer ********************** team at ************.Review fromSusan B

5 starsI had an install crew come to my home to install a ductless mini split system yesterday. From the moment I called, I was pleased with the customer **********************. From **** the supervisor who answered all my questions, to **** the general manager who accommodated me on the schedule, to ********* who helped me with finance concerns, to ***** who conducted my walk thru prior to the install, to the install crew themselves, it was a great experience all the way through. I received an email with photos of the technician's prior to their arrival, so I knew who to expect. They came on time, arrived in uniform and kept my home clean. They explained what would be done prior to starting the job, so that they could customize it to my liking. This team was very professional, and their work was FLAWLESS. *****, *****, and ***** were very polite, and kind, the entire time they were here. I couldn't be any more pleased with my experience from start to finish. I highly recommend this company to anyone in need of HVAC services in their home. 5 stars and two thumbs up! So very happy that I chose them for the job. I will certainly be using them again in the future. Thank you Varsity for a job well done, so happy to finally have cool air in my home.Varsity Plumbing & Heating, Inc.

1 starInteresting way to decline a job after providing an estimate in November. I am glad I did not proceed with the company because if I had gone with Varsity - "problems" would have been uncovered later. I am glad I had other people come out and estimate the job. Rep ******** they need to make $50,000 a day in installs and not waste time on jobs that can take weeks to complete due to complexity. Luckily cameras outside caught the conversation. No wonder they have "best of long island" reviews when they pick and choose who to work with.Response from the company "Just wanted to reach out after our appointment today to communicate our decision for this project. Ive ccd some of our team members so that everyone is on the same page. We will not be providing an estimate for the work you had requested back in November which we are readdressing now. The proposal provided to you back in November will be voided as per this email, we will be walking away from the project as there are too many variables that we cannot control, when we take jobs on there must be a clear cut solution to your problem but in your case there is not. I do apologize for any inconvience and we wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors Thanks,*********************************** Varsity Home ServicesVarsity Plumbing & Heating, Inc.

We are sorry to hear you are dissatisfied with our decision to decline this project. As a professional company, we proudly stand behind our work 100%. This means if we do not believe a job can be completed correctly to our high standards, it is not the job for us. We understand that the estimate we originally provided to do the work in a proper manner was deemed out of budget. Out of respect for trying to make an alternative work, we sent our representative back to assess whether there was another way to approach the job. After this re-evaluation, our representative determined that alternative solutions would unfortunately not be viable. While we regret to hear you are disappointed in this decision, we believe that disappointment in walking away from a job is a far better outcome than to do the work incorrectly.Review fromdanielle w

1 starThis company took advantage of my 71 year old mother in law. they were supposed to come in and do a simple maintenance job. They ended up bullying her and scaring her into work that WAS NOT NEEDED!!!!. The Unit was 3 years old and did not need any work on it. not only did they do work that was not needed they over charged her $5400 and then did nothing about it. My mother in law has a side apartment on the side of our house and is not even the owner of the home. She shouldn't have been able to ok ANY WORK. They should have called my husband, who was ON THE ACCOUNT and they deleted after we complained. These people are scum and will take advantage of you. They were very nice to her very nice and screwed her out of 5400 dollars. really shady company. The owner and manager also did not care.Review fromAndrew D

5 starsThere should only be 5 stars on this companies review page. There is no better and Ive tried more than a few. The techs are highly skilled and knowledgeable. The front office has the best customer **********************. The company functions like all home improvement companies should. They are always available and are reasonably priced.I have used their services at a few of my homes in the past and they have always done a professional job.Varsity Plumbing & Heating, Inc.

1 starCompany is a rip off. Try charging me 1800 dollars for a heating fix that was fixed by another company for ******. This place rips people off. Be aware shop around this company is a disgrace. Plus their fix for 1800 dollars wasnt even the problem. Shameful for a company to knowingly rip customers off. Absolutely unrealVarsity Plumbing & Heating, Inc.

It is very important to us that any customer concern is always dealt with in a timely manner. Upon initially hearing of your concern via email, we immediately looked into this with our customer ********************** manager, who called you and left a voicemail requesting a call back. We did not hear from you in response to this contact attempt, and we regret not getting the chance to rectify the issue with you directly. We understand that businesses and customers will not always agree on pricing based upon how important this type of value is to them, but we can assure you that we would not be in business for more than six decades if we had any intent to rip people off as you stated. We are sorry to hear that you decided against using our service after receiving a quote that was higher than expected. We cannot speak to the work that another plumber performed as we are unsure of whether, within that short timeframe, they executed the same job tasks, with the same parts, with the same skilled labor. At Varsity Home Service, we are dedicated to providing top quality home repair and replacement services by using only the best materials and equipment in the industry and providing top-notch workmanship on every single job. When called upon for a repair, our technicians thoroughly assess the situation and recommended the repair option they feel in their professional opinion are the most beneficial for your system. It may not always be the cheapest 'band aid' solution, and it may not be the most expensive solution. The recommendation will always depend on the nature of the repair as well as other factors such as the age and condition of the system overall. Your satisfaction is very important to us and we would love to get the chance to discuss this matter with you directly. If you would like to speak further regarding your experience, please do not hesitate to let us know as we would be happy to connect you with a customer ********************** manager!
